The Mysterious World Under Steampunk
Chapter 550 Profit
"What did I see just now?" Anderson Lehman panted heavily, his face extremely pale, as if he would faint at any moment.
"Death!" Leo responded to the question, and at the same time looked at Anderson Lehman with admiration.
It is impossible to look directly at the gods, even if the gods are far away, just a phantom, but the invisible coercion from the level of life is enough to extinguish all weak beings who dare to look directly at him like a tsunami.
When letting Anderson Lehman see the Web Weaver and Death Gain, Leo had already considered the mental impact on Anderson Lehman, so he also used some other methods to protect Anderson Lehman's spirit.
But even so, Anderson Lehman is an ordinary person after all, and will be more or less affected. According to Leo's prediction, it should take at least ten minutes for Anderson Lehman to recover his sanity, but what he didn't expect was that Anderson Lehman Just after Lehman got rid of the power blessed by the Web Weaver, he was able to return to normal and think. This shows that Anderson Lehman's willpower and spiritual power have reached the limit of ordinary people.
After hearing Leo's answer, Anderson Lehman frowned. Although he didn't know what Gain the Grim Reaper or the Web Weaver was, he could understand what Leo said death represented.
"Can you see the death of other people?" Anderson Lehman asked in a deep voice.
Leo casually made up a lie and said: "Only people who are dying can see it, just like now."
Anderson Lehman said with a serious expression: "All these people will die?"
"Yes, everyone will die, including you, General." When Leo said these words, he deliberately looked up at Anderson Lehman's head.
Although Anderson Lehman couldn't see the mirror image above his head, he could imagine in his mind that there was probably a black thread above his head connected to the big net in the sky. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shiver.
"What do I need to do?" Anderson Lehman asked in a deep voice.
Leo said: "Our chief has already brought someone to protect Mitty Grant, what you have to do is to prevent the navy from capturing Mitty Grant."
What Leo wants Anderson Lehman to do is very simple, because with Anderson Lehman's reputation and influence, it is not difficult to prevent the navy from arresting a person, but the problem is that this person is different, she is The murderer who assassinated Hoover Hansen, and the conflict between Anderson Lehman and Hoover Hansen is no secret at the top of the Navy. He is now preventing the Navy from capturing the murderer. What do other people think? Undoubtedly, everyone will doubt whether the killer was ordered by Anderson Lehman.
Although, in the absence of conclusive evidence, the navy will not blame high-level officials like Anderson Lehman, but he will also lose his influence over the high-level navy, and even his students will no longer follow his instructions , he has no other choice but to retire.
Because in the eyes of the Navy, he has broken the rules.
It is normal to have revenge. In the huge group of the navy, all kinds of hatred are not uncommon. Two colleagues who often meet and cooperate may be two enemies who want to kill each other.
It's just that no matter how big the hatred is, you must follow certain rules to do things. Either find out some unknown things about the enemy, use this to bring down the enemy through official means, and send him to a prison where he will never stand up. Either use the justifiable position to send the enemy to a dangerous place and use the enemy's means to solve the enemy.
No matter what method is used, it must use an officially recognized reasonable and legal method, just like Anderson Lehman used various methods to make things difficult and squeeze out Hoover Hansen, even if Hoover Hansen had to choose to leave The navy is involved in politics, and the navy will not blame Anderson Lehman's approach, because this approach is recognized.
But assassinating your own enemy is the biggest taboo no matter how you look at it, because you can find someone to assassinate your enemy today, and then you can find someone to assassinate your political enemy tomorrow. In that case, the whole situation will be completely messed up up.
"Do you know the consequences of what I did?" Anderson Lehman said in a deep voice.
"I know." Leo nodded.
Anderson Lehman said with a cold face, "You gave me a difficult problem."
Leo said in a deep voice: "This is not a problem, because you have no choice."
Anderson Lehman said with some annoyance: "Why me? Why not that old fellow Richard? Isn't he the admiral of the navy? He is more suitable than me to stop the navy's capture operation."
Leo didn't answer. He couldn't tell that Anderson Lehman was the easiest naval executive to find right now. He almost didn't need to look for it, just wait in the pastry shop.
Anderson Lehman was silent for a long time before he said something wrong: "I have been in the navy for almost sixty years. I knew what I should do since I was seven years old when I first saw a warship leave port. I think I will stay in the navy all my life until the day I die, but now..." He paused again and said, "If what you said is true, I will help you prevent the navy from capturing Mitty Grant But I can only stop part of it, Hoover Hansen has a group of diehard radicals, and they will never be influenced by me."
"Can you tell me who those people are and where they gather?" Leo asked.
"What do you want to do?" Anderson Lehman frowned and said extremely displeased: "If something happens to them, it will only make people think that I am using force to drive out Hoover Hansen and his family No matter how influential I am at that time, I am afraid it will be impossible to prevent the navy from arresting Mitty Grant."
"Don't worry, I won't hurt them, I will only trap them until Mitty Grant leaves," Leo pointed to the surroundings, and said, "Just use this method."
Anderson Lehman looked at Leo meaningfully, closed his eyes slightly for a moment of silence, and said, "The Sea Spear Tavern in the Queens District is the property of Hoover Hansen, and it is also where people from his line gather. As long as any major event happens, they will gather there beforehand to discuss how to deal with it. If what you said is true, then those guys should all be gathering at the Sea Spear Tavern now."
"Okay, then let's split up!" After getting the desired response, Leo stood up and was about to leave.
"Wait, what if I can't stop the navy's capture?" Anderson Lehman suddenly stopped Leo and asked.
Leo was silent for a while, and said, "Pray, pray to the gods you believe in."
After speaking, he saw Leo's body disappear in front of Anderson Lehman like a mist, and the door of the pastry shop in front of him also returned to its original state.
"General Lehman, when did you come? Are you here to pick up the made-to-order pastries? You'll have to wait a while..." At this time, the owner of the pastry shop, whom he hadn't seen before, baked a box of pastries from behind Fang walked out, and when he saw Anderson Lehman sitting on the chair, he was taken aback for a moment, and then stepped forward to say hello.
Anderson Lehman ignored the pastry shop owner, stood up, left the pastry shop directly, and returned to the carriage waiting outside.
The adjutant waiting beside the carriage noticed that Anderson Lehman was not holding the pastry as usual, and his serious expression was completely different from before, so he asked suspiciously: "Dean, did something happen?"
Anderson Lehman hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did you find anything wrong outside just now? Like a pastry shop?"
"No, it's normal." The adjutant looked at his chief in confusion, and said, "It's just that you stayed in the pastry shop for a long time."
After hearing the adjutant's words, Anderson Lehman thought for a while and ordered: "Go to the Navy Department immediately."
On the other hand, Leo, who left the pastry shop, immediately rushed to the tavern mentioned by Anderson Leo. He was not at all worried that Anderson Leo would say that he would prevent the senior navy from arresting Mitty Grant. , but actually does nothing. Because after seeing the scene provided by Leo, anyone will be shocked and terrified, and will never have other thoughts.
More importantly, after persuading Anderson Lehman, Leo tried to look at the silk thread of the web weaver, and he saw that the black color representing death on the web weaver's silk thread was already very light, and many silk threads had begun to break Disappeared, which means that the crisis is being resolved.
However, even so, there are still some black lines stubbornly existing here, and the direction of these black lines happens to be exactly where Leo is going.
It didn't take much time for Leo to come to the Sea Spear Tavern in the Queen's District. This tavern is very recognizable. The shape of the entire tavern is like a big ship, but this kind of building is famous for its strange buildings in the Queen's District. In the urban area, it is not very conspicuous.
For Leo, the reason why this tavern is eye-catching is not the strange shape of the tavern, but because of the black weaver silk threads hanging from the sky, those silk threads are dark and translucent, almost the same as what Leo saw at the theater troupe camp. Those silk threads are comparable, which means that these people gathered in the tavern are also one of the reasons for the disaster.
If according to Leo's idea, he just broke in, knocked out all the people in the tavern, and then imprisoned until Mitty Grant left, anyway, there will be a special bureau to take the blame afterwards, after all, under Leo's intentional guidance just now , Anderson Lehman thought he was a member of the Special Bureau, and if he asked for trouble, he would only find trouble with the Special Bureau.
However, Leo was just thinking about it, because if he really did this, it would be equivalent to forging a death feud with a group of key naval officers. It may be impossible for these people to find out about Leo in a short time afterwards, but after a long time, especially after Frank Fussen has retired, the Special Bureau may not hide the content about him. In that case, unless he takes these guys Kill them all, otherwise you must always be on guard against the retaliation of these backbone officers of the navy.
Leo did not enter the tavern in a hurry, but walked around the tavern. Every time he found a suitable place to arrange rune traps, he quickly placed six rune traps in the right place. range, this tavern can be completely covered.
After the layout was completed, Leo walked straight towards the entrance of the tavern. When he reached the entrance, he directly turned over the normal business sign hanging at the entrance of the tavern, and closed the door smoothly.
Leo's undisguised actions were naturally seen by a waiter and two security guards at the door. When they were about to step forward to question Leo, Leo raised his hand and cast a witcher seal .
Fayin's power instantly hypnotized the three of them, and Leo took the opportunity to order the three to close the other entrances and exits of the store.
Then directly activate the rune trap outside the store, dragging the entire tavern into the mirror world constructed by Turing radicals, magic runes and other powers.
When these people were trapped, most of them did not feel any abnormality, and they were still discussing how to find the assassin who assassinated their leader. The news revealed to the royal family and Congress.
The reason why they discussed so intensely was not only because of their grief and indignation over the death of the leader, but also because of the various legacies left by the leader.
Hoover Hansen has secretly built a large-scale secret organization over the years, and has also accumulated a large amount of wealth, and these wealth are all under the name of the organization. Only Hoover Hansen can stipulate the ownership of this wealth.
However, Hoover Hansen never thought that he would die so suddenly, so suddenly that he had no time to leave the will of the organization's legacy, so the organization's legacy became ownerless.
If only ordinary organizations encountered this kind of situation, they would probably have collapsed, but Hoover Hansen had trained several outstanding talents for the organization. These talents stabilized the situation by virtue of their usual prestige, and in the Today, all the big and small leaders in the organization were called together to discuss not only the matter of revenge for the leader, but also the ownership of the organization's legacy.
At first, no one let go. After all, this not only represents wealth, but also represents the position of the new leader of the organization. Anyone with a little ambition will not give up this opportunity that allows them to climb to the top of power.
Those little bosses who thought they were not capable and qualified to be heirs did not stand aside and watched. They stood behind the people who had a good relationship with them and who were qualified to be heirs, waving their flags and shouting. They may not be able to obtain the greatest benefits, but if the successor they elect becomes the new leader of the organization, then they can also obtain considerable benefits from it.
After some discussions, they finally came to the result that whoever first finds and captures the assassin who assassinated Hoover Hansen and finds out the instigator behind the assassin will be able to become the second leader.
