ACSP: Chapter 67: The strong dominate everything, the weak only need to obey!
And at this moment.
Over in Jinghai City.
City Lord Li Hongfei had already invited the Lei Li brothers and their party, who had come from afar, into the reception hall of the City Lord's mansion.
Because this alliance meeting was quite important.
City Lord Li Hongfei was worried about too many people and loose lips, so he only brought Jiang Chen to attend this meeting.
Even Li Yanran and the others were not qualified to enter.
The same was true for the Thunder God Temple side.
The only people attending the meeting were the two brothers, Lei Li and Lei Hong; all other members of the Thunder God Temple were arranged to stay outside.
As for Puppet City, since only Li Dala came, it was naturally him who appeared as the representative.
After everyone took their seats, the gaze of the Lei Li brothers immediately fell upon Jiang Chen.
Lei Li spoke first, looking at Jiang Chen and asking: "This little brother must be the Dual Kage-level Contractor that City Lord Li mentioned last time, Brother Jiang Chen, right?"
Dual Kage-level Contractor?
Hearing this title, Jiang Chen suddenly felt a bit amused.
Dual Shadow-level?
Who are you looking down on?
I am a Dual Six Paths Contractor, okay?
However, he couldn't be bothered to explain it to these people.
After all, the strongest ninja rank on the contract ritual is Super Shadow.
Even if he mentioned the existence of the Six Paths level, these people wouldn't understand.
They might even provoke questioning again.
"Yes, he is the only Dual Kage-level Contractor in our Jinghai City, oh no, it should be the only one in the world. It's just that the characters he has contracted are all hidden characters, so there are still many people who don't know about this."
City Lord Li Hongfei, beaming with red light, smiled and explained: "Don't look down on him just because he is a newcomer this term; his strength is very formidable. Previously, an elder of the Chen family who was over level 60 was killed by him."
Hearing this, the brothers Lei Li and Lei Hong both appeared somewhat surprised.
Lei Hong looked at Jiang Chen curiously and asked: "Kid, what level are you now?"
Jiang Chen said calmly: "Level 27."
Lei Hong seemed to have realized something and continued: "To be able to kill a level 60+ Contractor at level 27, even a Shadow-level powerhouse couldn't do it. If I'm not mistaken, the attribute bonuses given to you by the two contracted characters on you should be additive, right?"
Jiang Chen nodded without hesitation.
Seeing this, Li Dala also suddenly realized: "Good fellow, I was wondering why you kid are so badass; so the attributes of the two contracted characters on you are additive!"
Lei Li turned to look at Li Dala: "What? Has Protector Li already fought with this little brother Jiang Chen before?"
Li Dala scratched his head a bit embarrassedly: "You could say we fought."
Lei Li was shocked upon hearing this: "Looking at you, you didn't lose, did you?"
Li Dala's old face flushed, and he quickly explained: "How is that possible? I hadn't even fused with my contracted character at the time, okay?"
Lei Li was thoughtful: "So, without merging with your Contracted Character, you lost?"
Li Dala coughed twice and said: "The two of us were just sparring; we weren't going all out."
Lei Li didn't continue asking, because from the awkward expression on Li Dala's face, he had already guessed the answer.
It was obvious that the other party had lost to Jiang Chen without merging with a Contracted Character.
This made him think even more highly of Jiang Chen.
You have to know, Li Dala's level has already reached 84.
Moreover, because his skills are quite special, even a level 90 Kage-level Contractor might not necessarily be able to gain any advantage against him.
The fact that Jiang Chen could defeat Li Dala despite such a large level gap shows that his methods are by no means ordinary.
"Alright, Big Brother, let's talk about serious business."
At this moment, Lei Hong suddenly spoke up to remind him.
"Good."
Lei Li nodded with a serious expression, then turned to look at City Lord Li Hongfei: "City Lord Li, we discussed this before coming to Jinghai City. This time, the Evil God Organization has set its sights on you, so we plan to use Jinghai City as the battlefield and set up an inescapable net in advance. This way, we can occupy an absolute geographical advantage and wipe out those people from the Evil God Organization in one fell swoop."
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Li Dala: "Protector Li, your clay puppets are the best trap devices. You might need to put in a bit more effort this time."
Although Lei Li's words were polite, his tone carried an attitude that brooked no refusal.
He didn't even give City Lord Li Hongfei a chance to discuss it; he had already finalized the battle plan he had conceived.
When City Lord Li Hongfei heard that the other party wanted to set up traps in Jinghai City to ambush the Evil God Organization, he was immediately displeased: "Brother Lei Li, you're not joking, are you? Jinghai City is our home, and there are hundreds of thousands of people in the city! If you treat this place as a battlefield, what will happen to those people?"
He had seen Li Dala's clay puppets before.
The power of their explosions was even more terrifying than explosive tags.
If the other party laid down a large number of clay puppets in Jinghai City, they would surely flatten the entire city.
Lei Li said sternly: "You can organize the people in Jinghai City and have them all migrate to Kang City. My Thunder God Temple's base in Kang City is not small; if we squeeze in, we can still accommodate them. Of course, you can all go together. My Thunder God Temple broadly recruits talent, and we are very welcoming to talents like you, City Lord Li Hongfei, and little brother Jiang Chen."
Jiang Chen could see it clearly now.
This Lei Li really had a clever scheme.
If they fought the Evil God Organization in Jinghai City, regardless of the outcome of the battle.
Jinghai City would definitely not be habitable anymore.
If the people in the city wanted to survive, they would only be able to choose to migrate.
In this way, their Thunder God Temple could absorb all these people.
And use this to strengthen themselves.
Sure enough.
The human heart is the most terrifying thing.
Their biggest enemy right now is the Evil God Organization.
Yet, before even dealing with the Evil God Organization, someone was already plotting against their allies.
"No, I don't agree."
City Lord Li Hongfei stood up directly from his seat. He frowned and said to Lei Li: "Jinghai City cannot become a battlefield. Brother Lei Li, I hope you change your battle strategy."
Seeing City Lord Li Hongfei's firm attitude, Lei Li immediately got angry: "City Lord Li Hongfei, I am not discussing this with you, I am informing you. Even if you object, it's useless. Besides, you are merely a level 86 Jonin Contractor, what right do you have to object?"
As his words fell.
A powerful burst of Lightning Style Chakra instantly surged out from his body, tightly wrapping around him and causing shocking electric arcs to flash and jump.
Looking from afar, it was as if a layer of lightning was wrapped around his body, causing people's hearts to shake violently.
Is this the Third Raikage's Lightning Release Armor?
Watching the Lightning Style Chakra spreading over Lei Li's body, for the first time, a look of seriousness appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes.
At this moment, Lei Hong, who was on the side, also stood up: "City Lord Li Hongfei, don't say that our Thunder God Temple is bullying you. In fact, our Thunder God Temple's style of doing things has always been very simple: the strong rule everything, and the weak only need to obey!"
