Chapter 359 Fortress City
The Deman Hotel called the police again, and this time someone was killed.
Belica and Toby went on duty again because there were many witnesses proving that the guard of the Caesar family was suspected of murder, and the one who killed the guard was a member of the Caesar family, so the Caesar family had its own connection with the security team, and it had nothing to do with Mu Hua.
Belica should hate the people of the Caesar family. Even though the person who died was a guard, Belica seemed to be in a surprisingly good mood this time.
The storm seemed to have subsided on the surface, but unfortunately Ivy was not killed in the end.
The substitute amulet is indeed very troublesome, and I don’t know if Ivy has a new amulet. Mu Hua estimated that if he wanted to kill her, he might have to do it himself.
It’s hard to say whether it can be considered a dispute. Mu Hua also has a better understanding of the situation between Gray and Ivy.
Speaking of which, Gray followed Ivy to the hotel, but in essence, Gray didn’t come to cause trouble for Mu Hua.
The main industry of the Caesar family is the "Heaven and Earth Bank" whose name Mu Hua is not used to. However, perhaps because of the problem of business methods, the Caesar family does not have a good reputation among the residents.
Some people say that they are behind the gray industry, some say that they cultivate gangs, and some say that they are colluding with demons, etc.
If the adventurer circle values strength more, then in the world of residents, reputation is particularly important for a long time.
Therefore, the Caesar family has made a large investment in Odysseus's strategy team, intending to let a hero come out of their family.
The strategy group involves not only fame and reputation, but also the intelligence during the strategy process, and the share of mineral resources after the discovery is also very attractive.
The Caesar family arranged for the family member Chelson to become the hero candidate of the Odysseus team, but there are also many people in the Caesar family who want to replace Chelson.
And Gray, who is mixed with Ivy, is one of them.
Perhaps because of the power struggle within the family, Gray has been helping Ivy to apply for the identity of a strategy, while also trying to contact Odysseus to replace Chelson.
At first, Mu Hua thought that Gray came simply to acquire the hotel and surrounding land under his name. After learning the whole story, it seems that Gray's quarrel with him is at most a casual thing in his spare time.
Gray came mainly for Cherson, so he was reckless and made trouble. I am afraid that he also intended to make Odysse dislike Cherson.
As for Ivy, she probably climbed up the line of Gray and wanted to use the power of the Caesar family to seek some power and support in the Benson family.
For the time being, Ivy did want to obtain some resources and achieve some results in the Cains Courtyard.
It's just that her methods are not very good. She tied herself to Gray, and she was stuck in the first procedure of applying for a raider.
The reason why she came to the Deman Hotel was not even as clear as Gray. Ivy was simply Gray's foil. No wonder Tabesha didn't care much about Ivy.
Gray had no reason to go directly to Cherson, so he wanted to use Mu Hua as a raft to make trouble.
Unfortunately, his understanding of Mu Hua was too one-sided. Mu Hua not only had a close relationship with Odysseus, but also became an inspector who influenced all aspects of the Odysseus team's review.
This also led to Gray's slightly contradictory words and attitudes in front of Mu Hua from time to time. He wanted to win him over, but he couldn't let go of his pride. He wanted to despise him, but he was worried about the negative impact on himself.
And Chelson was worried that Mu Hua would have a bad impression of him because of Gray, and in order to avoid Mu Hua from putting on eye drops, he directly took over the inexplicable dirtiness between Mu Hua and Gray.
After a round, Mu Hua saved the trouble of confronting Gray, but it seemed that Gray's original purpose was also achieved.
Because after a life, Gray already had a reason to argue with Chelson, and whether Chelson was active or passive, he did face Gray head-on.
Looking at the overall situation, Mu Hua felt a little sad that these family children played the game of pretending to be crazy to perfection. At this time, he did not dare to easily judge whether Gray was generous or scheming.
Fortunately, these have nothing to do with him for the time being. He is now a person of status. Since Gray and Chelson's goals are related to the strategy team, they all have to look at his face.
Grasping the key point, Mu Hua no longer mentioned Benson's various things, and watched Gray tossing with a high attitude. Moreover, Mu Hua is very indifferent to this kind of power struggle now. His life is not the same as these people.
In two days, the Odysseus team has delivered a large number of supplies. The team atmosphere is tense and serious. Except for Chelson, no one pays attention to Gray's affairs.
Tabesha and several women joined the strategy team's auxiliary team. Clark and Eve took the logistics personnel of Dandelion to join the logistics team of the strategy team, intending to understand the situation of the serious logistics team from their own perspective.
Compared with the Odysseus team, other forces have made much bigger moves in the Cannes Courtyard.
A large amount of weapons and ammunition were sent to the Caines Courtyard through the cross-border teleportation array, but the Empire seemed to be very experienced in this regard. The patrol fleet and the honeycomb mothership of the Adventure Union had already stopped in the high-altitude clouds, and the atmosphere of war did not affect the town.
Old Morey's son-in-law Hobert found Mu Hua and received 300 skeleton warriors from Mu Hua. So far, 300 skeleton warriors with live ammunition and wearing tactical uniforms appeared everywhere in the town.
Pete wanted to meet Mu Hua but was rejected by Mu Hua. Hobert met Nick privately several times. It is said that the two had a good chat and Nick was also planning to buy a property in the town.
Ronald, as a night hunter, was stationed in the town and wanted to talk to Mu Hua about the skeleton warriors. Mu Hua sent a message to Old Morey, and the townspeople surrounded the night hunter office for a long time, and the matter was left unresolved.
It was a cold night with wind and snow. When the dawn of the morning shone on the silver foothills, a team of hundreds of people, including the townspeople, the Odysseus strategy team, and the teachers and students of the academy, entered the garrison, stepped on the cross-border teleportation array, and arrived at the Kanins Fortress City, which was like the front line of Star Wars.
The grand city with a length of nearly 20 kilometers, with access to three sides outside the city, and a chaotic space turbulence can be seen five kilometers south of the city.
This is a gathering place for humans, the first main city of humans in Kanins Courtyard, and the Kanins Fortress City.
And to its south is the border of this dimensional world. Here, it is a broken world.
The Kanins Fortress is a human city located in the southernmost part of the Kanins Courtyard. After a period of blockade, this city, which is far larger than Mu Hua could have imagined, has miraculously risen from the ground in this chaotic land.
The red rose petals set off the golden blade on the magic array, and the three formed a pattern like the rising sun.
The castle, like a white mountain, stands in the center of the city. On the top of the castle tower, hangs the flag symbolizing the Magic Empire.
Countless airships form a steel curtain covering the sky above the city. The beautiful magic barrier is like a glazed ceiling, emitting a reassuring soft light.
"There are surprisingly few magicians here." After walking out of the urn where the entrance to the human world is located, Mu Hua said to Odysseus beside him, looking at the busy pedestrians in the city.
"There aren't many people who specialize in magic. Before the Star Patrol Meeting ends, if they are not invited, the Caines Courtyard will only allow adventurers who have completed a certain number of adventurer tasks in this courtyard to enter."
"Most of those adventurers are not very strong, so it's okay at ordinary times. Now that there is a possibility of encountering a magic wave attacking the city, everyone will take out some magic equipment at the bottom of the box." Odysseus explained.
However, even if the people who come and go in the city are not equipped with a full set of mechanical equipment, many of them have mechanical arms or mechanical feet attached to their bodies.
And most people also carry some hot weapons such as guns and artillery on their shoulders.
This is very different from Mu Hua's original impression that the streets are full of adventurers wearing swords, axes and robes.
Listening to Odysseus's explanation, it turns out that among the low-end adventurers, magic is still the mainstream choice of most people.
In order to save money at ordinary times, when the war is about to come, most of the younger adventurers still pragmatically choose magic equipment that can directly improve their combat strength.
However, for the adventurers who are still wandering around the streets at this time, when the Star Patrol Conference comes, it is estimated that their mission is to assist the garrison in defending the city. (End of this chapter)
