Chapter 263 Lend your harpist's vest

After a while, the lord, who was bruised and swollen from the fall, also moved a small round stool and sat at the farthest distance from the tea table of Xia Lanwei Luosi, who looked unhappy, with the careful Zhengwei.

This scene couldn't help but make Li Wei feel very funny when he saw it, thinking that one thing really brings down another thing.

A group of legendary masters like Kelben, who are already at the top of the North Pyramid in terms of combat power, are actually so afraid of a dragon.

But after he listened to Kelben slowly describing the [Battle of Kaishui City Port] with Xia Lanweilosi's tacit approval, he became somewhat clear about why Kelben had such an attitude towards Xia Lanweilosi.

Purely out of true love?

Maybe there is, but even if there is, it has already been diluted a lot by the passage of a hundred years and the love with Laila.

Presumably it's more out of guilt.

Although Kelben only spoke plainly and without emotion, through the lines of his words, we can also imagine how high-spirited Ciaran Velosi was back then.

The only heir to the master of Amn, Long has a fortune of millions and is known to be talented and learned. He is also known as the "Dragon of Thousand Dharmas".

In just a few decades, she owned real estate on a street in the trade district. Half of the nobles in Jishui City owed her money. With just one sentence, she was able to raise a team of a dozen high-level adventurers. The entire Northland admired her pursuer.

You can go from Pride House to Baldur's Gate.

I would like to ask how such a "white, rich and beautiful" person could be so "introverted" that even when he is almost in his prime, he still understands it?

Naturally, it's because he fell into a big trap.

At the beginning, Xia Lanwei Luosi still trusted Kelben, an old licker, to the point where she would consult with him on matters that were so important and even involved his family and life.

It's just that Kelben felt that he had betrayed Charanvilos's trust. After the news of the port battle leaked from the Church of the Goddess of Magic, the plan was destined to go bankrupt.

And in the end, it can be changed to a lose-lose ending, which can be regarded as the strength of the friendly forces.

Perhaps in a few decades, for human beings, a few profound pictures may have become blurred.

But for an immortal species like the giant dragon, which can often sleep for several years in one sleep, every time he thinks about it, it feels like it was yesterday:

Just out of their own selfishness, countless righteous warriors were not killed on the battlefield, but were hacked to death by countless "mobs" rushing out of the alleys.

The aura of the spell was unleashed in the slums of the port. There were crumbled walls and bloody limbs protruding from the rubble everywhere.

Next to the dead mother, the frightened and desperate child was crying silently.

All of this made Xia Lanweilosi unable to forgive herself for the 'naive to stupid' self!

Xia Lan's transformation also made Kelben feel sad, and playing a clown-like role like this is nothing more than

It is enough to hope that the other party will vent their anger on you, instead of hiding in a small and dark lair all day long, escaping the bloody reality through storybooks, or ravaging your soul with memories when no one knows.

.

Originally, both Xia Lanwei Luosi and Kelben thought that Li Wei would give up this unrealistic idea after hearing this "black history" full of blood, cruelty and ugliness.

Little did they know that after listening, Li Wei only remained silent for a moment, then looked around the two of them and said:

"Actually, the fundamental purpose of fighting evil can still be achieved without leaking information and trying not to affect civilians."

boom!

Li Wei looked up in shock, and saw Xia Lanwei Luosi standing up directly from the table, holding the tea table with both hands, staring at Li Wei with slightly red eyes, and said in a somewhat difficult and hoarse voice:

"You didn't understand what we said or something! Don't be naive, okay? If there really was such a perfect way! We would have succeeded long ago!"

Maybe she also noticed that something was wrong with her state, and Xia Lanwei Luosi suddenly became depressed: "Give up! I'm begging you."

Seeing Li Wei now, Xia Lanwei Luosi seemed to see herself back then. She was such a successful young man, high-spirited, confident but naive!

And beautiful visions often become distorted and ugly when exposed to cruel reality.

Justice without absolute power is ultimately just hypocritical justice.

No matter how arduous and outstanding peace is, it is more valuable than violent justice.

None of them can bear the consequences of failure.

Especially again!

"Miss Xia Lan, Lord Kelben, I can understand your mood. I also know that such frivolous words somewhat blaspheme your efforts back then."

Li Wei nodded to the two of them, and then said with an unprecedented serious and serious expression:

"But what I want to say is that blindly seeking perfection is an indulgence of evil. They will not restrain themselves because of your 'generosity'. On the contrary, the more you are afraid of repeating the tragedy of the past, the more likely you will be

To fuel their arrogance, they will only become more and more rampant, until even the current 'peace' will no longer satisfy them. Anyway, there are only three of us here. If we don't have a plan to put it into practice, we just won't

It's empty talk that threatens, why don't you listen to some of my possibly immature ideas?"

Although Li Wei's words were quite upright, they really spoke to the two people's hearts.

No one knows the development history and current situation of Jishui City better than them, the ‘landlords’ who have lived in Jishui City for hundreds of years.

As Li Wei said, since that port battle, those gray forces have not only resurrected, but have also grown wantonly in recent years.

They seemed to have calculated that the officials of Jishui City did not dare to do anything to them and could not do anything to them, so they became more and more skilled and arrogant in their 'business'.

Stealing, robbing, smuggling, illegally catching slaves, collecting protection fees, selling poisonous alchemical items such as energy potions, robbing tombs to study necromancy, believing in and spreading beliefs about demons and evil gods, holding blasphemous sacrifices, etc.

In recent years, he has gone from bribing law enforcers to trying to secretly control the selection of masked lords, and has penetrated the upper-level political resources.

Almost all known crimes in the entire continent of Corell can be found in Kaishui City!

Perhaps the Bay Area and the Castle Area can still maintain a certain degree of security, but all kinds of evil have long been rampant in the Port Area and parts of the Southern District. Every year, various smuggling and other criminal activities alone cause immeasurable losses!

Xia Lanweilosi and Kelben looked at each other, and both saw a hint of suspicion in each other's eyes.

After all, whether Li Wei said that the information should not be leaked or that it should not affect the civilians as much as possible, it is almost impossible to achieve it given the current situation in which Jishui City has been eroded and riddled with holes.

In the end, Xia Lanwei Luosi sighed and said: "Okay, just think of it as satisfying a fantasy I had back then. Mr. Levis, I hope your proposal can be somewhat innovative."

Over the years, she has seen too many boastful people, but based on her impression of Levi, this little silver dragon has given her too many surprises in the past few days. Maybe, he really has a way.

?

"First of all, it's about confidentiality issues during planning and scheduling."

Li Wei stretched out a finger and suddenly smiled and said: "Actually, it's very simple. Just don't announce it before the plan starts. When the action is planned, issue temporary orders and act in a unified manner."

To put it bluntly, this model is actually the common measurement used by Blue Star next door when it is "fighting locusts and bandits". An impromptu meeting is held beforehand, and all communication tools are turned off.

At the beginning, almost right away, the young ladies who came out to perform were lining up to eat fruit, all covering their faces, but they were all the same below.

"No announcement?" Xia Lanweilosi and Kelben frowned at the same time.

"Ahem!"

Kelben coughed twice and said: "Mr. Levis, I can roughly understand what you mean, and I also understand that this can indeed keep confidentiality before the action. But the problem is that such a big action cannot be carried out in advance.

We simply don’t have enough power to announce preparations and assemble justice forces.”

"Jishui City only needs to be able to temporarily dispatch the city's guards. In terms of high-end power, the two of you plus Mr. Senas are basically enough. And by then, with your two personality charms, compared with many justices in the city,

The elite will also join in to stop the evil. As for the remaining middle-level combat power, our Hogg Chamber of Commerce can provide it, but I have two conditions."

Hearing this, Kelben was also moved in his heart. When he went to Hogg's workshop that day, he was a little surprised. In their office alone, he saw at least seven or more high-level professionals above level 15.

Those! There are also dozens of mid-level mages.

He almost thought that this person was going to arrange it for him, the masked lord.

"What conditions?" Kelben asked, and Xia Lanwei Luosi couldn't help but look at Li Wei.

"First, I need to set up a portal to dispatch my troops directly from the territory. The money for materials and 'military expenses' will have to be allocated by Jishui City's finance afterwards. After all, we can't work in vain, can we?

"Li Wei smiled shamelessly.

When he said this, Levi felt secretly happy. Other mages setting up portals were a loss-making business, but his [Alien Summoning Technique] can be used every three days. It's useless if you don't use it.

Ah! You can also take the opportunity to get pen materials, so why not.

If something happens to the territory, you can immediately set up a portal and go back through it.

"How much power can you muster?"

When Kelben heard Levi reaching out for money, he couldn't help but feel a toothache, but Levi's plan already made him feel that there was some possibility, so he gritted his teeth and asked.

"Then it depends on how much you dare to let me adjust."

Li Wei couldn't help but look at the pale-faced city lord with deep meaning.

Yes, after all, Li Wei is also a lord of a land in name. If a large army invades the territory, Kelben will probably be unable to sit still.

Levi put away his joking face and said: "What you saw in my office that day is doubled. Is it enough? If it is not enough, add more. Anyway, you can just pay for it."

"That's enough! We'll pay for it! What else is there?"

Kelben wiped his sweat and thought to himself, where did this guy come from? This group of high-level professionals is already more luxurious than his Xingyue, and there are so many of them!

"Second, our Hogg Workshop cannot take the lead, so I need to borrow your old man's harpist's flag." Levi held out two fingers.

Kelben's face froze, and he said unnaturally: "But I have been expelled from the Harper organization."

"It doesn't matter, don't you still have [Moonstar]? And after this is done, the names of you, Lord Kelburn, and [Moonstar] will definitely spread throughout the North. By then, the Harpers will probably be eager to recognize you as a member of their clan.
