Chapter 107

The bustling level of the Garles city was ranked number one in the entire Blue Moon Kingdom . The giant influence of every organization under the command of the Riley family made people tremble in fear . Not to mention Lei being all alone, even with his identity that year, a dragon would barely defeat the local snake!

Unless . . . right now he changed to another position, for example, going back to the position that year and vaguely hoping, as a result, that he would almost lose his life before recovering his mind .

. . . No, staying at that position was useless . The Garles city was on the East coast, not adjacent to that area .

Lei silently lamented then went back to the hotel .

Not too long after, Lady Teague also came back after inquiring about the news at the tavern . But the information she heard was not different from Lei’s . The only thing that she got more than him was that two years ago, young master Shane went to open a trading route then returned not too long after . It was heard that the business was very successful . The Lord was very satisfied .

“Turns out . . . it will be very difficult!” A bunch of people looked at each other, while Lei gloomily said, “This place is his headquarter . It is really hard to get information about him from others! Really hard!Really hard!”

He continued using the word “hard” to emphasize that this matter was extremely unpromising .

“Or we should find him to negotiatea little bit?” Stelle said, “Strictly speaking, the main cause for the death of the Parn Knight’s group is the Honorable Court Lady’s church and the “Undercurrent” Tim Thrall . As Highness and “Raging Tide” Sarah Heim are chasing Tim Thrall to kill him, I believe that sooner or later it would receive its punishment . We only need to deal with the Honorable Court Lady’s church . Shane might have made a deal with the Honorable Court Lady’s church . But due to this deal, is it worth it for him to become an enemy to a God staying in the mortal world?”

Her words made people fall into contemplation . Right as she said, “negotiation”, this was not a bad idea .

After a quick discussion, everyone decided to find Shane to negotiate, in the hope that Stelle’s judgment was correct .

Shane Riley didn’t live in the residence of the Lord, but he had his own residence . When everyone got to his door and asked to meet him, they didn’t meet any hindrance but were able to meet him smoothly .

He was just right as the rumor . Shane was a young handsome man, not to mention he was dignified . He looked very modest, refined and courteous, easily giving everyone a favorable impression of him .

“Are you the families of the people in the accident on the sea?” When everyone told him clearly their intention of coming here, he beamed a melancholy smile, “I also knew sooner or later all of you would find me . “

“Is this matter really related to you?” Lei raised his brows, and asked .

“I am very sorry . I can’t answer that at the moment . ” Shane smilingly answered, “I don’t doubt your identities, but I am very suspicious about your intentions as well as your abilities . All of you must have heard ‘Keeping secrets is the power of the strong’ . If you want me to reveal the secret, please prove your strength first . “

Lei smirked . Although he smiled on the outside, he didn’t feel that on the inside . He asked, “Do you mean that you want us to show our talents?”

Shane smiled back as if he didn’t feel the momentum from Lei, and calmly said, “Showing talent is the job for a clown . About fifty miles to the west of the Garles city, there is a marsh . Inside the marsh, there are several three-headed snakes . Their strengths are not bad . If you want to show your abilities, then catch one and bring it back alive . “

“Just a word from you, you want us to immediately go catch a three-headed snake?” Lei smiled angrily, “Why don’t we catch you instead?”

Shane didn’t look at Lei, showing his momentum . “Don’t say these words that make me skeptical about your intellect . Don’t tell me that you are just a soldier who is about to reach the legendary realm . Even if you have stepped into the legendary realm, you don’t have the qualification to rampage the Garles city . Catch me? You can try . The one who will have regrets will not be me anyway . “

Lei raised his brows and felt something was wrong .

This guy . . . is a little too calm!

Power and status could really give people confidence . Power is good . Status is fine . They both have their limitations . Even in a distance that he could touch him within one reach, even if it is a Grand King, he wouldn’t dare to be gaudy in front of a high-class soldier- —-in history, there was not only one king that died under the blade from a sudden attack of an assassin in a close distance, but these assassins were just on the middle level .

Highness Hollow Mask used to say that, to a kingdom, a soldier within a reach was way more powerful than a country . At this moment, the distance between Shane and me could be considered “within reach” to an advanced soldier, where does this man get the confidence that he could escape my grasp?

He frowned, feeling a little bit trapped .

If calmly considering, the best choice right now for him was to suddenly attack and oppress Shane, to force him to tell the entire secret . After that, he thought of keeping Shane as a hostage to get out of the Garles city and how to run away . In the long chasing process, even if the Garles city had a strong military force, they couldn’t display their military force in full . Finally, it would be more likely that Lei would fight with the Lord – Joseph .

Toward his equipment and some unrevealed cards, he wouldn’t be scared when facing the Lord – Joseph, who was in the legendary realm .

Anyway . . . there was no way that the Lord would die together with Lei, risking his life to kill Lei .

His intuition told him that, ‘taking action’ was not a good choice . Although the reason was not clear, as long as it was real fight, the loser would most likely be him, not to mention there would be great danger .

Moreover, right now, he was not a lonesome thief anymore . He had teammates whom he needed to look after . If the fight really happened and even if he could get away; what about his companions?

Stelle would be able to escape . But Lady Teague, Liv, Frank, and little Anges, what would they have to do?

He hesitated for a long time and didn’t take action in the end . He sighed and then said, “Fine, I’ll catch the three-headed snake . I hope you won’t be too dumb to force me to turn the tide!”

After he finished speaking, he brought along a group of people, who were full of resentment, swaggeringly leaving .

Shane smiled as he watched them leaving and shook his head with disdain .

“My intuition was right . His eyes are not good . After all, an adventurer is only that much!”

He sat down once again and took out the documents to read . Really quickly, he had thrown the bunch of people to the ninth-level cloud .

A few days later, Lei came back to the Garles city with a little bit of a struggle, bringing along a tied three-headed snake .

When he carried this giant beast into the Garles city, which weighed about one ton, his footsteps felt like they were making the Earth quake, and the mountains shake . People who came to see almost blocked the city .

A three-headed snake was not too-mighty of a devil beast, but it was absolutely not a weak one . It was about four to eight meters long, three to five meters high . Its weight was around seven to eight hundred kilograms for a small one and more than two tons for a bigger one . Its big build gave it a frightening strength while its thick layer of scales gave it a defensive force, which could be compared to a great athlete wearing iron armor and a big shield . It was not only that . These creatures had incredible life power . Except for a particular weapon, normal ones could cut off its heads in a short time . After that, using fire to burn the wound, only by doing this could one kill it .

Some three-headed snakes could even use magic . For example, fire or ice, thunder or poison . It was heard that some people had met a three-headed snake which had already lived for a really long time . It didn’t only have a giant body, but its three heads could also spit fire, ice and lightning . It indeed was way too strong .

The one Lei had caught was of course not a special one . In fact, it was just an average grown beast . Its fighting force wasn’t counted as excellent . A group of skilled adventurers could probably kill it . But killing and catching alive were completely different . Working alone and working in a team were poles apart . Being able to catch this beast alive in the marsh and alone carry it into the city, such a soldier had never appeared in this region . His strength mustn’t be underestimated!

“Isn’t only the legendary powerhouse able to do this kind of thing?” Among the crowd, someone gave out such a judgment .

The news quickly spread to the ears of the leaders of the influences in the Garles city, of course including the Lord – Joseph as well .

There was not only one person starting to investigate Lei’s identity . Due to the fact that Lei didn’t keep his identity confidential, they could quickly find out who he was . After that, the big masters got the second part of the report .

“This rascal Shane, what does he want?” In the imposing and towering God Shrine of the Harvest Goddess, the priest Holly Riley was holding two parts of the information, muttered to herself, and fell into contemplation .

Different from the intelligence of other businessmen, she had another powerful information channel . Toward the younger brother who looked easygoing and ordinary, she knew a lot of information about him, which normal people couldn’t know . Therefore, she was always careful about him .

The Exploitation Ceremony was about to begin, and Shane had created such a big commotion at this moment . What was his intention?

Right now, Lei had come to Shane’s residence the second time .

“I have brought over the thing you wanted . It is right at your big door . ” He said loudly to Shane, “So, you should tell me the information you know!”

Shane put down the documents, smiled, and gently said . “I think you have mistaken something . Before, I said that if all of you could bring back a three-headed snake alive, you would then be able to prove your abilities and get the qualification to know the secret . But since when did I tell a stupid beast can be traded for a secret?”

Lei’s face darkened, he clenched his teeth, grimly looking at him .

Lei was on the verge of exploding . These past few days, he had been fighting with all kinds of venomous snakes in that damned marsh to find a three-headed snake, to catch and bring back alive . . . At this moment, he was mentally and physically drained . His mood was extremely terrible .

If Shane dared to play any tricks, he would walk away immediately . After taking a proper rest and sending his companions away, then he would come and catch this shameless bastard, cut his ears, then slowly interrogate him!

It was as if Shane didn’t see his eyes, which were about to spit fire, indifferently and slowly said, “I am a man of my word . The price of wanting me to break my word is really high . “

“What do you want to do?” Lei interrupted him, asking coldly .

“Until the Exploitation Ceremony, I will need your strength . ” Shane said nonchalantly, “Before that, you should take a good rest, wait until everything is settled . Until that time, if I am not dead, not only will I tell you everything, but I will support you fully . “

“What?!” Lei was dumbfounded and didn’t understand whathe meant .

“In general, when the time comes, you’ll understand . ” Shane smiled; his face appeared very mystical .
