Chapter 1123: Effortless

Chapter 1123: Effortless

“What else do you have to say? The wanted fugitive has been found, and I now suspect that some of you are his accomplices. Someone, keep an eye on them. This ship is now in the custody of the Fifth Fleet. We’ll talk after getting a clear idea of the facts!” Delano smiled smugly, and waved his hand to get his subordinates to go forth and seize the sailors of The Star.

However, as soon as Delano and his men escorted the so-called wanted fugitive out of the cabin, Julio knew that the matter would not end well. Hence, he immediately secretly arranged for a sailor to leave The Star stealthily and report the situation to Lin Li.

Since Helena Port was far from the Gilded Kingdom’s capital, the sailor had to hurry up and swim quickly. Even though he wasn’t weak, he spent close to two days to rush there.

By the time Forcus snapped back to his senses, the sailor of The Star had already bypassed him and reached Lin Li’s door. Seeing this, Forcus dared not delay and hurriedly rushed over too in a bid to find out exactly what had happened before thinking of a solution.

However, before Forcus stepped on the stairs, Lin Li and the sailor had already walked out. He scurried over, and eagerly said, “President Felic, there must be some kind of misunderstanding here. Rest assured, I will settle this immediately.”

In fact, at this point, there was no longer a need to investigate, because Forcus already had an answer in mind. Except for the scoundrel Delano, there probably wouldn’t be anyone else who would do such a thing. Looking at Lin Li’s calm expression, Forcus suddenly felt like a storm was brewing, and he wished he could kill Delano.

Of course, Forcus was just thinking about it, and what he was really worried about was that Lin Li might fly into a rage and kill Delano. If it were any other official or son of a noble, Forcus would not be as worried as he was now. At most, he just had to let a few of them sacrifice their lives to make up for it.

However, although Delano was incompetent, he had an impressive father, the Sanctuary powerhouse High Priest Poer of the Gilded Kingdom whose status was not inferior to King Bradlor’s. Otherwise, how could a good-for-nothing like Delano be the commander of the Fifth Fleet? If Lin Li really killed Delano, Poer would definitely not let the matter rest, and if both parties were unwilling to compromise, a battle would be inevitable.

Forcus’ worries were the reason that he had to take the rap even if he was unwilling to do so. He would just conduct some investigations, and then make a few of Delano’s subordinates the scapegoats. He thought that the matter would then blow over.

However, Lin Li looked at Forcus indifferently, and said, “It’s just a small matter, you don’t have to bother.”

If it were during normal times, those words would seem polite, but at this moment, Forcus was so frightened that he started shivering as he felt chills all over his body. Although he could not feel any anger from Lin Li, he knew that things were developing in a direction beyond his control. A Sanctuary powerhouse was not someone whom anyone could provoke!

Lin Li didn’t even have to guess, and he already knew the culprit. Although he wasn’t furious about it, it was impossible to pretend that nothing had happened. The gods would never forgive anyone who committed blasphemy, and Sanctuary powerhouses likewise would not be generous enough to forgive all the nobodies who offended him. Otherwise, everyone would dare to step all over him. It was not the time to be compromising and benevolent. It was about the pride and dominance of a Sanctuary powerhouse, just like the reason that the gods would punish blasphemers.

“President Felic, I know it’s our fault for that matter. Regardless of who exactly the culprit is, I just hope you can give me some time, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer.” Forcus was extremely anxious, and he simply took all the blame, no longer calling it a misunderstanding. He just hoped that Lin Li could let him handle that matter.

After all, for Forcus, as long as the matter was handled by himself, he would at least have some control over it. No matter how much responsibility he had to take, there would still be some room for adjustments. However, if the matter was completely handled by Lin Li, Forcus would be in a passive position.

“It’s not like our president didn’t give you a chance when you went to receive us previously, yet something like this has actually happened, so it’s obvious that your so-called way of handling things isn’t working at all,” said Hordark, the sailor who went to report to Lin Li. He immediately couldn’t help but be infuriated.

Before Forcus went to receive the people of The Star, Delano caused a stir on The Star, and in the end, they apologized and guaranteed that it would not happen again. Only then did the matter blow over. In Hordark’s opinion, Forcus should have warned Delano after that incident and transferred him away. Yet, in the end, Delano used the excuse of arresting a fugitive to take The Star into custody.

Hearing the sailor’s words, Forcus cursed in his heart, but there was nothing else he could do to defend himself. He could not say directly that there was nothing he could do to Delano. If he said that, all the more Lin Li wouldn’t agree to let him handle it.

“President Felic, I will report this matter to His Majesty and my teacher immediately. This time, we will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation,” Forcus said, bringing up the king and his teacher because he knew that he obviously couldn’t gain Lin Li’s trust anymore. You think my identity is not authoritative to handle this matter, right? The King and Elder Zumar should hold enough power, then.

However, no matter what Forcus said, Lin Li did not respond, and simply took out the Summoning Lamp, and chanted an incantation to release the Lord Devourer, Garl. Garl’s large body was like a giant hot air balloon that floated above the heads of the crowd and loomed over the entire area.

“Master, I obey your orders!” Garl said to Lin Li respectfully after appearing.

In fact, when Garl was initially coerced into signing the Soul Contract by Lin Li, he wasn’t very convinced, but after everything that happened, he watched Lin Li’s strength grow rapidly day by day. It took him only a short while to reach the higher Sanctuary-realm.

His human master managed to obtain such a terrifying strength at such a young age, and he was definitely powerful even when compared to the Immortal King and Geresco. Garl dared not be displeased at all. Hence, when he was summoned again, Garl immediately put himself in the right position and behaved respectfully.

Lin Li had suddenly summoned a monster, and Forcus could feel the terrifying aura emanating from the monster even though he did not know its origin. That immediately made him even more anxious than before as he begged, “President Felic, please, you must give us a chance to redeem ourselves. That rascal Delano must have taken things into his own hands regarding this. I’ll report to His Majesty immediately and bring Delano to you. He will be at your disposal!”

In Forcus’ opinion, The Star and the sailors on board would all have to come out to apologize as long as he intervened. Everything would then be solved perfectly. After all, for the president of the Tower of Dusk, Delano was just like a nobody, and as long as he apologized sincerely, Lin Li should not take it to heart.

However, once the Tower of Dusk stepped in to handle the matters, the nature of the issue would change, and it would become a diplomatic incident. It would no longer be a matter between the president of the Tower of Dusk and the small fry Delano, but a dispute between the Tower of Dusk and the Gilded Kingdom. It might even affect the relationship between the entire Breezy Plains and the Gilded Kingdom. After all, the Tower of Dusk was the leader of the Breezy Plains, and almost all the forces of the Breezy Plains had to look up to them.

However, in the face of Forcus’ plea, Lin Li stayed indifferent, and simply raised his head to look at Garl who was in the sky. “You already know what happened. Beg, borrow, or steal, I want you to get them to hand over our sailors. Go.”

“Please don’t worry, Master. I will make them hand over your sailors.” As soon as Garl heard that Lin Li didn’t restrict him, and only cared about the outcome and not the result, Garl was extremely excited. Hence, after agreeing, he flew his large body towards Helena Port.

“President Felic!” Seeing this scene, Forcus knew that it was useless for him to say anything else. Looking at the monster’s ferocity, he knew that it was definitely going to deal with Delano, and he could not delay longer.

With a bitter expression, Forcus hurriedly bade goodbye to Lin Li, and used the Power of Flight to fly towards Helena Port. The only chance he had now was to grab The Star and the sailors on The Star before things got out of control. He would then ask for Delano to be handed over.

However, what Forcus didn’t expect was that Delano was flying over with his warriors arrogantly before Forcus even set off. Seeing that Delano still had the guts to appear there, Forcus flew into a rage, and immediately stopped and landed in front of Delano. He furiously barked, “Delano, what are you doing? Are you turning a deaf ear to my words!?”
