Walking to the door of Masanori Sakamoto’s room, Lei Luo organized his words and thought about how to say it to Masanori Sakamoto. The current situation was not what he had in control.
He had been pushed into the chaos by various forces. What could Lei Luo do to change the current situation?
“It’s Mr. James, right? Please come in.”
With some surprise, Lei Luo pushed open Masanori Sakamoto’s door. She was sitting on the bed, thinking about something.
“You know about it, right?”
While Lei Luo was talking to sufficient, he had used [ message ] magic to let Masanori Sakamoto know about their conversation.
“Are you saying that you’re Lei Luo or that the general threatened the Sakamoto Family?”
Masanori Sakamoto blinked as she looked at Lei Luo as if she was trying to prove something.
“Both.”
Lei Luo sat beside Masanori Sakamoto and lay down. He was at a loss as to who he should help or which faction was worthy of his help.
“Just follow your heart. The Sakamoto family’s matter will not be resolved so easily. We will only know in the end. They all have their own ideas and goals. They’re all the same to me.”
Masanori Sakamaka looked at Lei Luo with a hint of worry.
“Yeah, perhaps only in the end will we know which side is worth it?”
Thinking about the current situation, he only wanted to enter the node to find the medicine that would save Allie. However, he was now sinking deeper and deeper into this situation.
“I’ll go back first. If you want to inform the Sakamoto family, do it as soon as possible. We don’t have much time left.”
Lei Luo stood up and walked back to his room. He did not see Masanori Sakamoto’s lonely expression.
…
There were only ten arenas left at the martial arts competition venue. The day’s competition was to draw lots among the one hundred people, number one against number one hundred, number two against number ninety-nine, and so on.
Masanori Sakamoto did not follow them that day. She said that she would be refining the tomes of arcane with Kudouzhai.
When it was Lei Luo’s turn to draw lots, the people in front of him looked happy and sad. On the big screen, the names of the people who had drawn lots appeared.
Today, they only needed to fight five matches to decide the names of the people who would enter the top 10. Tomorrow, there would be a free-for-all between 10 people to decide the rankings. The day after tomorrow, it would be the competition to decide the champion.
When there were only 25 people left, one person was destined to be left empty. The person who was left empty would have a free-for-all battle with the remaining 12 people. The 10 people who could last the longest would enter the top 10. This was also a time to show one’s personal level. It was also for the sake of watching the competition.
At the same time, it could also eliminate the weakest among them and let the lucky ones stop there.
Lei Luo looked at his number. It was 83. He wanted to fight with number 17. He relaxed when he saw the big screen. It was an unknown person.
Miyamoto Musashi and Linghua were also among the 100 people. However, Linghua’s matches were not so smooth. Every time she met an opponent that was slightly stronger than her, she still managed to defeat 100 people without any danger.
In these two matches, Lei Luo used his fastest speed to finish off his opponent so that no one else could see his strength.
Lei Luo was aware that General Zili would definitely be watching his matches, so he had to hide for as long as he could. As long as his identity as a mage was not seen through, he could still stall for some time. When he entered the node, he would not have to worry about the situation here.
Miyamoto Musashi had drawn a blank, which surprised Lei Luo a little. It was as if someone had deliberately let him take a blank.
When he walked to the arena and saw his opponent, Lei Luo felt strange. It was a golden-haired foreigner in a coat.
Among the twenty-five people, only James and the man in front of him were foreigners. The other foreigners were all eliminated.
Whether they were there to join in the fun or to be the hangers-on of the other family heads, this showed that the man in front of him was stronger than the average person.
Not being able to use magic power in the northern border did not mean that there were no ways to deal with magic. For example, the most common method was to bring a small anti-magic stone. This special product from the gate of the demon world could effectively block the release of magic by mages.
The premise was that within a certain range, Lei Luo also bought a small piece to try. The principle was actually very simple. This kind of stone could absorb the magic power that dispersed in the air, it would cause mages who originally relied on the magic power in the air to release magic to be unaccustomed to it.
If a mage used the magic power in his body, as long as he fell before the other party, he would be able to successfully subdue the enemy.
“Hello, Mr. James. I’m Jarrosus. I’m very happy to see my fellow countryman from the empire, but I had no choice but to kill you because of the orders of the Nakajima family head.”
The man in front of him did not speak. He only smiled, looking very pitiful. He used the simplest [ voice transmission ] spell to let Lei Luo hear it.
“Then I wish you all the best.”
Lei Luo also smiled at this person. No matter which side he was on, he was a worthy opponent.
“Begin!”
Lei Luo quickly drew his sword after the referee’s voice sounded. He shot towards Jarrosus like an arrow leaving the bow. Not all mages had a “sacred body” like Lei Luo. Most mages were good at long-range attacks.
Lei Luo raised his sword and aimed it at Jarrosus’ face, while Jarrosus extended his hand to block it. This shocked Lei Luo.
When Lei Luo’s sword touched Jarrosus’ fist, the sound of metal clashing against metal was heard. This was unbelievable.
Lei Luo took a closer look. There was something that looked like armor on Jarrosus’ body. It was this thing that stopped the blade of Lei Luo’s sword.
“This is one of my research, the possession of a magic puppet. Aren’t you surprised?”
There was pride and relief on Jarrosus’ face. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with his research.
“Not bad. If it’s just like this, it’s still not enough.”
The blade seemed to turn on its own and slid down his fist. Jarrosus could only turn his head, but the tip of the blade still left a bloody mark on his face.
He quickly stretched out his fist, forcing Lei Luo’s next attack back. He covered the wound on his face and asked Lei Luo, “Are you really a mage?”
Lei Luo shrugged and replied to Jarrosus, “Who knows?”
Hearing that Lei Luo did not answer his question, Jarrosus could only smile bitterly and say, “I really underestimated you. In that case, I’ll let you see the results of my life’s work.”
After saying that, his armor fell off his thin body like clothes. The originally transparent lines began to become clear and appeared in front of Jarrosus, forming the appearance of a giant in armor.
“This is a real magic puppet. It is a masterpiece that combines the advantages of all magic puppets. Such a beautiful structure. It’s not in vain that I stole it from the Magic Research Institute of the empire’s Elder Council and lived on the edge of death in the northern border for so many years.”
