Magus Tech Chapter 1048: Familiar figure

Like ten thousand painters can't make an airplane. To make an airplane, well-trained workers and engineers are needed.

In a sense, Oscar's three demands are similar to giving him an unknown amount of money.

And now, he is not very short of money.

After thinking silently for a while, Li Cha looked at Garcia and made a final decision: "To be honest, I really want to promise Mr. Oscar behind you, but I don't have all the information he wants. I got it, but I still need to continue digging and confirming. So, he will wait for me for a while."

"So, how long will it be, Lord Gray Crow?" Garcia asked with concern.

"I'm not sure about this." Li Cha shook his head, "Maybe I have to ask about the organization that let me infiltrate. Let's see how much they trust me and how long I can guarantee not to be exposed .”

"Okay." Garcia said.

…

Ten minutes later.

With a "squeak", the door of the pretended bankrupt store opened, and Li Cha walked out and left.

Inside the door, the "disappeared" waterfowl walked back to the room, looked at the skinny old man Garcia and asked, "How is it? How did the conversation go?"

Without waiting for Garcia to answer, Mizutori said again: "Okay, although I don't know what you are talking about, but judging by your expressions, the result doesn't seem to be very good."

Garcia smiled wryly and said: "You guessed right, the result is indeed not very satisfactory. Although the man did not express any rejection, it is not considered a promise. He said that he will wait for a while before giving an answer."

"Actually, this is already a kind of rejection, right?" Mizutori said.

"But actually, it's much better than refusing." Garcia said, "It's nothing. To be honest, I don't know exactly what I was talking to that adult about. I Just be responsible for taking the words back, and how to deal with it later is naturally up to Mr. Oscar to decide."

"That's right." Water Bird nodded, "We are subordinates, we just need to obey orders."

"By the way, are you going to stay here for a few days, or what?" After sighing a few words, the water bird asked aloud.

"Stay for a few days? I would like to." Garcia shook his head and said, "But it's impossible. There are other matters for me to deal with, so I will leave tonight."

"Well, I can only hope that you can hold on to this old bone."

"I would like to borrow your good words." Garcia stepped out and left the shop in the dark.

And Li Cha, who left the previous step, has already left Rice City.

…

After leaving Rice City, Richard's first thought was to head southwest and return directly to Pompeii.

But after thinking about it, I changed the direction slightly and headed south.

Before, he was more or less worried about Ximu in the Garden of Eden, so he didn't plan to stay outside for too long, and wanted to go back as soon as possible to prevent Ximu from rebelling.

Unexpectedly, Ximu was even more unreliable than he thought, and he rebelled before he could go back, and then he was completely eliminated.

According to the information sent by Pandora, Ximu didn't even keep the trunk, only the heart remained.

In this way, he doesn't need to be too anxious. He can spare a day or so to drop by the city of St. Louis to see how the situation has changed.

The change of power in St. Louis City was secretly promoted by the spider web. In a sense, it was the penetration of the Soma Alliance into the Southern Freedom Federation. Go to see the situation, and get a side view of the purpose of the Soma Alliance. The black-faced old man suddenly asked him for the address of the Truth Society branch of the Southern Freedom Federation, which might have something to do with it.

It’s just that the relationship between the Soma Alliance and the Kingdom of Sika is not right now, and the restoration forces that have not been eliminated are planning various sabotage actions. At a time of internal and external troubles, do you still have the intention to launch an attack on the Southern Freedom Federation? ?

With this doubt, Li Cha quickly walked towards the south.

…

At noon the next day, Richard arrived in St. Louis.

It has been more than four months since the last time I searched for the "Book of the Void" in St. Louis, and Richard found that the appearance of this place has changed drastically.

The traces of the chaotic battle more than four months ago can no longer be found. Most of the damaged buildings on the city streets have been repaired, and those that cannot be repaired have been directly pulled down and razed, and brand new buildings have been built. .

Compared with the former St. Louis City, the current St. Louis City can be said to have a completely new look. The efficiency of the transformation is amazing, far exceeding the average level of the current world. Not surprisingly, there should be wizards involved.

Li Cha also noticed that the walls of St. Louis City have been raised and thickened a lot, and the defense force has been further strengthened. The patrol team of magic knights gallop past from time to time, and ordinary soldiers can be seen at any time.

To sum it up in one word, it is heavily guarded.

However, trade, the most important source of income in St. Louis City, has not been greatly restricted. Many merchants come and go in the city, conducting various goods transactions in shops, markets or guild halls.

In a sense, it can also be said that the city of St. Louis is tight on the outside and loose on the inside.

Looking at this scene, Li Cha couldn't help but a guessing thought flashed through his mind: Maybe...the reason why the black-faced old man asked for the branch address of the Truth Society, and the reason why the Soma Alliance infiltrated the Southern Freedom Federation was not for the same reason. Not offensive, but defensive.

Yes, defense. Grasping the most important points on the border can ensure that once things change, a solid line of defense will be established immediately to prevent the invasion of the Southern Freedom Federation and prevent the main force from being involved.

And doing this, save the main force, what do you want to do?

You can't deal with those small kingdoms or principalities with a population of less than ten million or one million?

At present, the main continent is worthy of the Soma Alliance~IndoMTL.com~ Apart from the Southern Freedom Federation, it seems that there is only the second largest country-the Kingdom of Sika.

Considering the border conflict between the Soma Alliance and the Sika Kingdom, perhaps the continuous strengthening of order in the Soma Alliance is to really attack the Sika Kingdom, and it is not a simple move, it is likely to prepare a strong one hit?

This is a bit interesting. Looking at the next period of time, it is very likely that the main continent will not be peaceful.

Of course, this has nothing to do with him. What he is currently doing is research.

Standing in front of a shop in the city of St. Louis, Richard thought so, and was about to turn around and leave to return to Pompey when he suddenly noticed a figure flashing by not far away.

Huh?

That seems to be...

Li Cha raised his eyebrows and squinted to look over.
