The Deman Hotel called the police again, and this time someone was killed.
Belica and Toby went out on police duty again because there were many witnesses proving that the guard of Caesar's family was suspected of murder, and the person who killed the guard was someone from Caesar's family, so this matter was handled by the Caesar's family and the security team, and had nothing to do with Mu Hua.
Belika must hate the people of Caesar's family. Even though the one who died was a guard, Belika seemed to be in an unexpectedly good mood during this police call.
The storm seemed to have subsided on the surface, but unfortunately Ivy still didn't get over it in the end.
The substitute amulet is indeed very troublesome, and I don’t know if Ivy has any new amulets. Mu Hua estimates that if he wants to kill her, he may have to do it himself.
It was hard to say whether this was a dispute or not, but Mu Hua also gained a better understanding of the situation between Gray and Ivy.
By the way, although Gray followed Ivy to the hotel, he didn't really come to cause trouble for Mu Hua.
The main industry of the Xize family is the 'Heaven and Earth Bank', a name that Mu Hua is not used to. However, perhaps because of its business methods, the Xize family does not have a good reputation among the residents.
Some people say that they are in control of the gray industry behind the scenes, some say that they are cultivating gangs, and some say that they are colluding with the devil, and so on.
If strength is more important in the circle of adventurers, then reputation is particularly important if you want to survive for a long time in the world of settlers.
Therefore, the Caesar family made a large investment in Odysseus's attack team, intending to have a brave man emerge from their family.
The attacking team is not only about fame and reputation, but also about the intelligence gained during the attacking process and the share of mineral resources after they are discovered and acquired.
The Caesar family arranged for a family member, Chelson, to become a candidate for the hero of the Odysseus team, but there were also many people in the Caesar family who wanted to replace Chelson.
And Gray, who hangs out with Ivy, seems to be one of them.
Perhaps because it involves a power struggle within the family, Gray has been helping Ivy apply for the identity of a raider while also trying to contact Odysseus to replace Chelsean.
At first, Mu Hua thought that Gray came simply to buy the hotel and the surrounding land under his name. After learning the whole story, it seemed that Gray was just looking for him to argue as a casual thing in his spare time.
Gray came mainly for Chelson, so he caused trouble recklessly. He probably also intended to make Odysseus dislike Chelson.
As for Ivy, she probably got in touch with Gray and wanted to use the power of Caesar's family to gain some power and support in the Benson family.
For the time being, Ivy does want to obtain some resources and achieve some results in the Caines Courtyard.
However, her methods were not very good and she tied herself to Gray, and she was stuck at the first step of applying to be a raider.
The reason why she came to the Deman Hotel was not even as clear as Gray's. Ivy was simply Gray's foil. No wonder Tabitha didn't care much about Ivy.
Gray had no reason to go directly to Chelsea to cause trouble, so he wanted to use Mu Hua as a raft to cause 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 somewhat 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 Chelsea 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 an act, he directly took over the inexplicable and dirty dealings between Mu Hua and Gray.
After one round, Mu Hua saved himself the trouble of competing with Gray, but it seemed that Gray's original goal was also achieved.
Because a life was lost, Gray had a reason to argue with Chelsea, and Chelsea did confront Gray head-on, whether actively or passively.
Looking at the overall situation, Mu Hua felt a little sad that these family members were so good at pretending to be crazy. At this moment, he did not dare to easily judge whether Gray was generous or scheming. Fortunately, these had nothing to do with him for the time being. He was now a person of status. Since Gray and Chelson's goals were related to the strategy group, they had to look at his face.
Grasping the key point, Mu Hua no longer mentioned Benson and watched Gray's troubles with a high attitude. Moreover, Mu Hua is not very interested in this kind of power struggle. His life is not on the same path as these people.
In two days, a large amount of supplies were delivered to the Odysseus team. The team atmosphere was tense and serious. Except for Chelsea, no one paid attention to Gray's affairs.
Tabitha and the other girls joined the Raiders' support team. Clark and Eve brought Dandelion's logistics staff to join the Raiders' logistics team, intending to understand the situation of the real logistics team from their own perspective.
Compared with Odysseus's team, other forces' actions in the Kanes Courtyard were much larger.
A large amount of weapons and ammunition were sent into the Kanes Courtyard through the cross-border teleportation array, but the Empire seemed to be very experienced in this regard. The patrol fleet and the Adventure Guild's hive motherships 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 three hundred skeleton warriors from Mu Hua. At this point, three hundred skeleton warriors armed with guns and wearing tactical uniforms appeared everywhere in the town.
Pete wanted to make an appointment with Mu Hua but was rejected by Mu Hua. However, Hobert met with Nick privately several times. It was said that the two had a good chat and Nick was planning to buy a property in the town.
Ronald, as a night hunter stationed in the small town, wanted to find Mu Hua to discuss the matter of the skeleton warriors. Mu Hua sent a message to Old Morey, and the townspeople surrounded the night hunter office for a long time, but the matter ended up in nothing.
It was a cold and snowy night. When the morning light shone on the silver-clad mountainside, a team of hundreds of people, including the townspeople, the Odysseus strategy team, and the academy teachers and students, entered the garrison headquarters, stepped onto the cross-border teleportation array, and arrived at the Kanins fortress city that seemed like the front line of Star Wars.
The huge city is nearly 20 kilometers long, with access to the outside of the city on three sides. Five kilometers south of the city, a chaotic space turbulence can be seen.
This is the gathering place of human beings, the first main city of human beings in Caines Courtyard, and the Caines Fortress City.
To its south is the border of this dimensional world, and here is a broken world.
Kanins Fortress is a human city located in the southernmost part of Kanins Courtyard. After a period of blockade, this city, whose scale far exceeded Mu Hua's imagination, miraculously rose from the ground in this chaotic land.
The red rose petals set off the golden blade placed on the magic array disk, and the three formed a pattern like a rising sun.
A castle that looked like a huge white mountain stood in the center of the city. On the top of the castle tower hung the flag that symbolized the Magic Empire.
Countless airships formed a steel curtain covering the sky above the city. The beautiful magic barrier was like a glazed ceiling, emitting a soft light that made people feel at ease.
"There are surprisingly few magicians here." After walking out of the city wall where the entrance to the human world is located and looking at the busy pedestrians coming and going in the city, Mu Hua said to Odysseus beside him.
"There aren't many people who specialize in magic. Before the Star Patrol Meeting ends, unless invited, the Caines Courtyard will only allow adventurers who have completed a certain number of adventurer missions in this courtyard to enter."
"Most of those adventurers are not very strong, which is fine under normal circumstances. But now that there is a possibility of encountering a demonic tide attacking the city, everyone will take out some of their best magical equipment." Odysseus explained.
However, even if the people walking around in the city were not equipped with a full set of mechanical suits, many of them had mechanical arms or feet attached to their bodies.
Most people also carried hot weapons such as guns and artillery on their shoulders.
This is very different from Mu Hua's original impression that the streets were full of adventurers wearing swords, axes and robes.
Listening to Odysseus' explanation, it turned out that among the mid- and low-end adventurers, magic is still the mainstream choice for most people.
In order to save money in normal times, when a war is about to begin, most younger adventurers pragmatically choose magical 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)
