"What did I just see?" Anderson Lehman gasped, his face extremely pale, as if he would faint at any time.
"Death!" Leo responded to the question, and at the same time looked at Anderson Lehman with admiration.
The god cannot be looked directly at. Even if the god is far away and is just a shadow, the invisible pressure derived from the life level is enough to extinguish all weak beings who dare to look directly at him like a tsunami.
When letting Anderson Lehman see the Web Spinner and Death God Kain, Leo had already considered the mental impact on Anderson Lehman, so he also used some other methods to protect Anderson Lehman's spirit.
But even so, Anderson Lehman is an ordinary person after all, and he will be more or less affected. According to Leo's estimation, it should take at least ten minutes for Anderson Lehman to return to normal consciousness, but what he didn't expect was that Anderson Lehman
Just after Lehman was freed from the power of the Webweaver, he was able to return to normal and think. This shows that Anderson Lehman's willpower and mental strength have reached the limits of ordinary people.
Anderson Lehman frowned after hearing Leo's answer. Although he didn't know what Death God Kain and the Web Weaver were, he could understand what Leo meant by death.
"Can you see the death of other people?" Anderson Lehman asked solemnly.
Leo made up a lie casually and said: "Only people who are about to die can see it, just like now."
Anderson Lehman said seriously: "All these people will die?"
"Yes, everyone will die, including you, general." When Leo said these words, he deliberately looked up at Anderson Lehman's head.
Although Anderson Lehman couldn't see the mirror image above his head, he could imagine in his mind that there might be a black thread on top of his head connected to the big net in the sky. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hit
Chill.
"What do I need to do?" Anderson Lehman asked solemnly.
Leo said: "Our director has already sent people to protect Mitty Grant. What you have to do is to prevent the navy from arresting Mitty Grant."
What Leo wants Anderson Lehman to do is very simple, because with Anderson Lehman's reputation and influence, it is not difficult to prevent the Navy from arresting a person, but the problem is that this person is different, she is
The conflict between Anderson Lehman and Hoover Hansen, the murderer of Hoover Hansen, is no longer a secret among the top brass of the Navy. He is now preventing the Navy from catching this murderer. What does this make other people think? Nothing.
There is no doubt that everyone will doubt whether this killer was ordered by Anderson Lehman.
Although the Navy will not blame senior leaders like Anderson Lehman in the absence of conclusive evidence, he will also lose influence over the Navy's senior leaders, and even his students will no longer obey his instructions.
, he has no other way to go except retirement.
Because in the eyes of the navy, he has broken the rules.
It is normal to have grudges and seek revenge. Within a huge group like the Navy, all kinds of grudges are not uncommon. Two colleagues who often meet and cooperate may be two enemies who want to kill each other.
However, no matter how great the hatred is, things must be done according to certain rules. Either find out some unknown things about the enemy, use this to bring down the enemy through official means, and send him to a prison where he will never be released.
Make use of your legitimate position to send your enemies to dangerous places and use their own methods to eliminate them.
No matter what method is used, it must be a reasonable and legal method recognized by the government, just like Anderson Lehman used various methods to create difficulties and exclude Hoover Hansen, even if Hoover Hansen had to choose to leave
The Navy is involved in politics, and the Navy will not blame Anderson Lehman for his approach, because this approach is recognized.
But assassinating one's enemies is the biggest taboo in every aspect, because you can find someone to assassinate your enemy today, and then tomorrow you can find someone to assassinate your political enemy. In that case, the whole situation will be completely chaotic.
Already.
"Do you know the consequences of what I do?" Anderson Lehman said in a deep voice.
"I know." Leo nodded.
Anderson Lehman said with a cold face: "You gave me a difficult problem."
Leo said in a deep voice: "This is not a problem, because you have no choice."
Anderson Lehman said with some annoyance: "Why me? Why not that old guy Richard? Isn't he the marshal of the navy? To prevent the navy's arrest operation, he is more suitable than me."
Leo didn't answer. He couldn't tell Anderson that Lehman was the easiest senior naval officer to find now. There was almost no need to search, just wait in the pastry shop.
Anderson Lehman was silent for a long time before he said something off-topic: "I have been in the Navy for almost sixty years. From the first time I saw a warship leaving port when I was seven years old, I knew what I should do. I think
I will stay in the Navy all my life until the day I die, but now..." He paused again and said, "If what you said is true, I will help you prevent the Navy from arresting Mitty Grant.
.But I can only stop part of it. Hoover Hanson has a group of die-hard radicals under his command, and they will never be influenced by me."
"Can you tell me who those people are and where they gather?" Leo asked.
"What do you want to do?" Anderson Lehman frowned and said with great displeasure: "If something happens to them, it will only make people think that I am using force to drive away the Hoover Hansen family.
.No matter how influential I am, I may not be able to prevent the Navy from arresting Mitty Grant."
"Don't worry, I won't hurt them, I will only trap them until Mitty Grant leaves," Leo pointed to the surroundings and said, "That's the method."
Anderson Lehman looked at Leo with a deep look, closed his eyes slightly and was silent for a moment, then said: "The Sea Spear Tavern in Queens District is the property of Hoover Hanson, and it is where people from his line gather.
This place, whenever something big happens, they will gather there in advance to discuss how to deal with it. If what you said is true, then those guys should be gathering at the Sea Spear Tavern now."
"Okay, then let's go our separate ways!" After getting the response he wanted, Leo stood up and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, what if I fail to stop the navy's arrest?" Anderson Lehman suddenly stopped Leo and asked.
Leo was silent for a moment and said, "Pray, pray to the gods you believe in."
After saying that, he saw Leo's body disappearing in front of Anderson Lehman like mist, and the door of the pastry shop in front of him also returned to its original state.
"General Lehman, when did you come? Are you here to pick up the custom-made pastries? It will take a while..." At this time, the pastry shop owner whom I had not seen before was baking from behind with a box of pastries.
Fang walked out and saw Anderson Lehman sitting on the chair. He was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward to say hello.
Anderson Lehman ignored the pastry shop owner, stood up, left the pastry shop, and returned to the carriage waiting outside.
The adjutant waiting next to the carriage noticed that Anderson Lehman was not holding the cake as usual, and his serious expression was completely different from before, so he asked doubtfully: "Dean, did something happen?"
Anderson Lehman hesitated for a moment and asked: "Did you just find anything wrong outside? Like a pastry shop?"
"No, it's normal." The adjutant looked at his superior with some confusion and said, "It's just that you stayed in the pastry shop for a little too long."
After hearing what the adjutant said, Anderson Lehman thought for a moment and ordered: "Go to the Navy Headquarters immediately."
On the other side, after leaving the pastry shop, Leo immediately rushed to the tavern mentioned by Anderson Leo. He was not worried at all whether Anderson Leo would say something to stop the navy's top brass from arresting Mitty Grant.
, but actually did nothing. Because after anyone sees the scene provided by Leo, they will stop being shocked and frightened, and will never have other thoughts.
More importantly, after persuading Anderson Lehman, Leo tried to look at the web-weaver's threads. As a result, he saw that the black color representing death on the web-weaver's threads was very light, and many threads had begun to break.
Disappears, which means the crisis is being resolved.
However, even so, there are still some black lines that stubbornly exist here, and the direction of these black lines happens to be exactly where Leo is going.
It didn't take much time for Leo to arrive at the Sea Spear Tavern in the Queens District. This tavern is easy to recognize. The entire tavern is shaped like a big ship, but this kind of building is famous for its strange buildings in the Queens District.
In the urban area, it is not very conspicuous.
For Leo, the reason why this tavern is eye-catching is not the strange appearance of the tavern, but the black weaver threads hanging from the sky. Those threads are dark and translucent, almost the same as what Leo saw at the theater troupe's camp.
Those threads are comparable to each other, which means that the people gathered in the tavern are also one of the causes of the disaster.
If according to Leo's idea, he breaks in directly, knocks out all the people in the tavern, and then imprisons him until Mitty Grant leaves, anyway, the Special Bureau will take the blame afterwards. After all, under Leo's deliberate guidance just now
, Anderson Lehman thought that he was a member of the Special Bureau, and if he was looking for trouble, he would only find trouble in the Special Bureau.
However, Leo just thought about it, because if he really did this, it would be equivalent to forming a deadly feud with a group of key naval officers. Maybe these people would not be able to find Leo in the short time afterwards, but it would take a long time
Especially since Frank Forson has retired, the Special Bureau will probably not conceal the information about him. In that case, unless he kills all these guys, he will always be on guard against the revenge of these backbone officers of the Navy.
Leo did not rush into the tavern, but walked around the tavern. Every time he found a suitable place to place a rune trap, he quickly placed six rune traps in the right place. According to the rune traps
The scope of action, this tavern can be completely covered.
After setting it up, Leo walked straight towards the entrance of the tavern. When he reached the entrance, he turned over the normal business sign hanging at the entrance of the tavern and closed the door smoothly.
Leo's unabashed actions were naturally noticed by a waiter and two security guards guarding the door. When they were about to step forward to question Leo, Leo raised his hand and cast a Witcher Seal.
.
The power of the seal instantly hypnotized the three of them, and Leo took the opportunity to order the three of them to close the other entrances and exits of the store.
Then he directly activated the rune trap outside the shop, dragging the entire tavern into a mirror world constructed with Turing roots, magic runes and other powers.
When these people were trapped, the vast majority of them did not feel anything unusual and were still discussing fiercely how to find the assassin who assassinated their leader. If they caught the assassin, it seemed that they had not yet collected it from the navy.
Information revealed to the royal family and Congress.
The reason why they discussed so intensely was not just because of their grief and indignation over the leader's death, but also because of the various legacies left behind by the leader.
Hoover Hansen has secretly built a large-scale secret organization over the years, and has also accumulated a large amount of wealth, and all of this wealth is in the name of the organization. Only Hoover Hansen can determine the ownership of this wealth.
However, Hoover Hansen never expected that he would die so suddenly, so suddenly that he had no time to leave a will for the organization's legacy, and thus the organization's legacy became ownerless.
If only an ordinary organization encountered this kind of situation, I am afraid it would have fallen into disarray, but Hoover Hansen has trained several outstanding talents for the organization, and these talents have stabilized the situation with their usual prestige, and in the
Today, all the big and small leaders in the organization were gathered together to discuss not only the matter of revenge for the leader, but also the ownership of the organization's legacy.
At first, no one relented. After all, this not only represented wealth, but also represented the position of the new leader of the organization. Anyone with a little ambition would not give up this opportunity that would allow them to climb to the top of power.
Those little bosses who asked themselves that they were not capable or qualified to be successors did not stand aside and watch. They each stood behind people who had a good relationship with them and were qualified to be successors. They may not be able to obtain the maximum benefit, but if they
The elected heir becomes the new leader of the organization, and they can also gain considerable benefits from it.
