He looked up to the priest, but the other man left, and his former employer followed. At this time, it was the most free time of the day in the arena, and there were only a few people scattered around, so it was clear at a glance.

He felt that his mind was a little messy, but inexplicably, the priest's assurances just now seemed to ring in his ears again.

“…… From now on, you don't have to fear anything, you can move as freely as you did in the past. The death chasing you has faded in the light of the Supreme Lord......"

No, I was not fooled, for I did not seem to have lost anything in this deception, and my inner reason gave a clear and convincing explanation, driving away the thought he had just had.

There were very few people around, and there were even arena staff staring at him, as if they didn't understand why he was still here.

Should be...... Is it all right? He could only comfort himself. The reason in my heart desperately refutated, but this time, the reason was completely suppressed by luck. It should be fine!

Then he remembered that he had one more thing to do today. That's right, that is, he asked Lu Wu and Gal to meet. Yes, he really made an appointment, not a perfunctory and casual deception of Lu Wu. Although according to the original plan, when Lu Wu and Gal met, the ownership of the Floating Fortress no longer belonged to him. But Luo Jia wanted to use this opportunity to let them know that Lu Wu was no longer able to fulfill the agreement he had signed before.

But at this time......

Lu Wu should not have the leisure to meet with Gal once and have that negotiation. At the moment of life and death, he could only completely release Gal's pigeons this time. Even if he set off now, he would probably be a long time late when he arrived. However, since he was an inviter, he had to go to the scene anyway, even if Gal waited impatiently to leave.

Also, this time Gal is afraid that he won. He thought with some regret and some red-eyedness. You can't really keep the Floating Fortress for yourself, but at least you can get a Stronghold Commander position. This is enough to make people envious, jealous and hateful.

……

In the vicinity of the base camp on the outskirts of the camp, there is a nondescript building. Like many of its neighbors, it's a temporary structure – or temporary housing. But although it is said to be "temporary", it does not mean that it is shoddy. In fact, all the buildings in the city are not shoddy.

The name of the building may not be known, but its purpose is well known - it is a fine dining hall for officers, or officers' canteens. It offers some things that would be considered luxuries in the Banshee Gate, such as fruits from the rear, hydroponic crops, and other high-end foods, which can greatly improve the living conditions of the officers.

It's dusk, dinner is over, and the restaurant has ceased operations. Strictly speaking, however, it is the kitchen that has ceased to function, the dining area is still open, and the lighting and the like cannot be cut off. As a result, it became a social place for mid-level and higher officers to spend time and chat about topics. Other than that, there are some more intimate rooms. These rooms were originally intended for a group of friends to have dinner and to discuss topics that were not appropriate for discussion in public.

Sometimes, however, it is also considered the most suitable platform for private transactions. It's not clear why these intimate rooms exist, but some things are open secrets. For example, many people know (but they never keep quiet) that there is no surveillance presence in and around these rooms.

But there is another secret to this place, and that is that it is close to the high-end area...... That is, the living quarters of the generals are very close in a straight line. It is so close that there is no need for any additional transfer, and even the most common and common terminals can communicate directly.

At this moment, in such a private room, a man is sitting at a small table, seriously operating his terminal. This is a very common thing.

This man was none other than Gal, and his face was full of joy at this time, the kind of genuine joy that seemed to be a little clearer than the sky. There are only expressions that belong to the successful and the lucky.

"So, sir, things are much simpler than you think. Through the terminal, he said to the man opposite. "Actually, it's just that you're thinking too much, Lu Wu is just a person who grew up in a border town after all, yes, he is very lucky, and he doesn't lack the courage to be strong and competitive, but he doesn't have the foresight and caution you feared. The latter two are actually the ones that really deserve attention, because people with this natural virtue rarely make mistakes. ”

Perhaps because of the limitations of terminal performance, the projection is a figure that is not very clear. However, if Lu Wu was here, he would probably be able to recognize the other party's identity directly. The initiator of the entire Floating Fortress incident, Ah Yuan of the Evening Star Family, a high-ranking officer in the regular army.

However, he has now come to his senses. A-Yuan said. "Otherwise, he wouldn't have found you, at least not in such a short period of time. ”

"But it's useless!" said Gal. "Everything has been settled, he personally used his life to code the stake, this agreement is irretrievable. His only option was to pay his debts...... But, "his smile widened." "At this time, can you repay the debt?"

An archon arrives with news that has not been deliberately concealed. Although there are not many rumors, even middle-level officers with a particularly keen sense of smell can get this news, regardless of the high-level. He knew that the reason why this news was not strictly kept secret was because the news was immediate-even if the Stygian Moon wanted to kill the Archon of the Radiant Moon (even if they did whatever it takes), it was useless, because by the time the Stygian Moon had mobilized a good man, it was estimated that the Archon would have already left.

It takes time to get the news, confirm the news, mobilize people, look for specific opportunities to implement, and so on. And most importantly, at this moment, the Banshee's Gate is still occupied by Kaicha Goat, and the Hui Moon and the Stygian Moon are actually separated by Kecha Goat.

After all, an archon came to supervise the battle, which already means that the top management of Huiyue attaches great importance to it. This is just a statement, and of course the consul can't really stay here for a long time to be in charge of the supreme command, right? At most, he will only stop for a moment. After all, in the place of the Banshee Gate, Huiyue didn't deploy much military power at all.

This is a very logical reasoning - the discussion is nothing more than the question of how many days the Archon will stay. To say that it will take three or five days to leave, it may be a bit excessive, but seven or eight days is a suitable value? Maybe a little longer? Ten or so days is also within a reasonable range, and it will be a little longer...... Well, the probability is low, but it can't be said that there isn't.

However, the Evening Star family managed to speculate (or get information from some secret source) that the Archon would be here for a long time. I don't know exactly how long it is, but at least it will ensure that the agreement will be enforced.

In the Archon's absence, any breach of account would be a challenge to his authority. Although I heard that the consul was a private visitor, and he didn't even bring a personal guard with him, the power of the consul was real. As long as he wants, he can mobilize tens of thousands of warlocks with a single word. Challenging such a supreme authority is too stupid for anyone to do.

So even if this agreement is very unfavorable, Lu Wu can only implement it.

"As for the troops......" Yuan began. "Don't be in a hurry, we have to invest in the power of the other party at once so that the other party is completely unable to give birth to the heart of resistance. Lu Wu's strength is quite good, although he only has one legion, but because he has received a lot of equipment and personnel from various places, he should have the combat strength of three legions. Therefore, at least twelve legions must be sent to the floating fortress at once to ensure that he obediently admits defeat. ”

"Well, as agreed, the position of the commander of the fortress ......" Gal laughed.

"Of course it's yours. A-Yuan nodded. "Just like we agreed. ”

Gal was pleased with this, because he was responsible for the most insignificant part of the matter. The news about the consul was provided by the Evening Star family, and the matter about Lu Wu coming to the base camp was provided by the Evening Star family (maybe it was designed by them at all), and even about the military strength to force Lu Wu to make concessions in the future was also prepared by the Evening Star family. He was in the position of an agent in this process, and he himself understood that he had chosen himself in order to avoid letting other powerful forces turn their attention to the Evening Star Family, thus intervening in the matter.

In fact, he would have had quite a few competitors – and more than one. But alas, they are clever and not willing to be an agent, but want to control a floating fortress in the real sense. Yes, the ambition is great and appreciated, but the problem is that there is one risk and one benefit. If you choose the one with the larger return, it is natural to take the greater risk.

It is not known what their plans are, but Gal believes that everything is in the hands of the Evening Star family. Their plans are to be implemented without interference, and their only chance of success is that the hope of success is so low that it is not worth the trouble of disrupting them.

And it's as simple as it seems. He couldn't help but be overjoyed at the thought that things had been done so simply, and that the position of a fortress commander had been in hand. Yes, under normal circumstances, he is not qualified to complete the step of jumping to a senior officer, this step is like a dragon gate, I don't know how many carp will sigh.

But he got the opportunity...... Got this opportunity in the competition of a group of people. He wasn't actually the best of them, but he was the most sensible or the most conservative of them. Moreover, after successfully getting Lu Wu to sign an agreement, he got a chance. That is, if they perform well enough, then they will accept them into the Evening Star family.

It is true that the Evening Star family is a second-rate aristocratic family, and (as many discerning people can see) is facing the crisis of the disappearance of the aristocratic family at the moment of balance. But the second-rate is also an aristocratic house, and its demise will be decades later. At least he didn't have to worry too much about that until he died of old age.

"It's almost time," Yuan said. "Lu Wu is a trustworthy person, he should come. Remember what I said, negotiate as much as possible, Lu Wu is a very bold person and has the courage to take risks. In case he is really carried away by hatred, he would rather break up in two, which is also not good for us. He paused. "Even reserving a place for him on the Floating Fortress would be acceptable. ”

"But if he really doesn't know how to lift......"

"The facts will educate him," A-Yuan sneered. "For us, maybe that's a little bit better. ”

The call is over. He walked out of the room and wanted to pour a glass of water, but unexpectedly saw Lu Wuzheng walking in from outside. With a face full of joy.

Yes, it was joy, the expression of joy on that face was like walking and picking up a million, happy, excited, overjoyed and a little dazed, almost with little pink heart-shaped bubbles all over the body. Anyone can tell from this face that something very good must have happened to this person. In addition, Lu Wu obviously had a fluke mentality, and he didn't even understand what kind of blow he was about to suffer.

Gal snorted softly, and a desire involuntarily flooded his heart. He wanted to watch the joy fade on his face until the last wisp of it was gone.
