The Immortal God of War

Chapter 426 Lure the snake out of its hole

"So what should we do? Sit back and wait?"

Catherine asked in confusion.

Liu Chi shook his head.

"This is called luring the snake out of its hole. I want to see who is behind this."

"Catherine, please go back to your room and let me be alone."

Catherine glanced at Liu Chi and left the room without saying anything. For her now, the spiritual sea was undoubtedly the best place to go.

After Catherine left, Liu Chi immediately opened the technology system and checked the location of the fortress through the map on it.

As long as Fortress returns with enough materials to make sophisticated armor, he will have the confidence to fight. At least with the protection of the armor, Liu Chi can engage in close combat like a normal practitioner, or use some physical tricks.

The fortress, which was originally scheduled to return this year, had to be delayed until tomorrow because of the extreme impurity of the mined minerals.

Liu Chi sighed. Although the fortress was on its way back and his newly designed armor was being made by Nanako, he still felt a little uneasy and whispered,

"Please don't let anything happen today!"

Liu Chi walked to the window and pulled aside the curtains. Because the ceiling was very high, although there were only twelve floors, Liu Chi's line of sight was six times higher than that of the previous floor.

Although it is impossible to overlook the entire Liro, there is no problem in seeing most of the west coast.

After looking at the scenery for a while, Liu Chi pulled the curtains back and sat on the sofa in the room.

This ordinary tranquility only lasted until the evening.

After fermenting for most of the day, the incident at the hotel had spread among the aristocratic circle. Everyone knew that the hotel's gambling field had been closed and most of the people inside the hotel were injured.

As night fell, what Liu Chi was most worried about happened.

Hearing the prompt sound next to his ear, Liu Chi, who was leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed in meditation, opened his eyes instantly.

After seeing Yang Xi's call request, he roughly guessed that the enemy was calling.

"Xi'er, what happened?"

"Our spies outside reported that several teams of armed practitioners have secretly gathered at the West Coast Port, with a total number of no less than thirty people."

"I see."

As the call ended, Liu Chi sighed softly, stood up from the chair and walked straight out of the room.

After knocking on Chris's room door, Liu Chi asked Chris to take him downstairs quickly.

After a while, Chris, carrying Liu Chi on his shoulder, appeared in the hotel lobby on the first floor.

After waiting for a while, everyone arrived one after another. Except for a few people who had no fighting ability at all, everyone else was present.

In the hall, Liu Chi, who was sitting on a chair, said to the people standing in front of him,

"I believe everyone knows the enemy we are about to face. In order not to affect the operation of the hotel, we must control this battle outside the square. At that time, Catherine and the five of you magicians will guard the hotel."

"You all listen to Catherine throughout this process. You do whatever she tells you to do."

The five people who were called nodded and cheered quickly. Compared to guarding the house, they knew very well that with their strength as junior magicians, going out to fight with swordsmen or Qi warriors would be courting death.

"I'm in the middle line, observing the battle situation. Yang Xi is in charge of the front line."

The reason why Liu Chi chose Catherine and Yang Xi was because they could contact each other and would not be unable to convey instructions in time. On the battlefield, communication was the most important thing.

"As long as we can get through today, tomorrow will be my business. Our venue will be open as usual, and we will hold activities!"

Except for Yang Xi and others, the rest of the people who were hired to do security in the venue showed a trace of uneasiness. In their opinion, they would definitely die in this battle.

"According to the intelligence, there are at least 30 people. After receiving the false news, they must have thought that we suffered heavy casualties here, so this group of people is very likely to be here to clear the area. Their strength is not too strong, but we have to rule out accidents. In short, everyone should be careful."

After saying all this, Liu Chi looked at Justine in the crowd alone.

"Assistant Jia, I'd like you to stabilize the operation of the hotel. No matter what happens, try not to let the guests leave the room tonight. Once this matter gets out, I'm afraid no one will dare to come here to spend money."

After hearing Liu Chi's words, Justine thought for a moment that she had misheard. In her opinion, she was just a senior waiter and did not have the ability to be valued in this way.

After being shocked for a moment, Justine nodded. The moment she nodded, she felt a huge weight suddenly pressing down on her.

"Alright! Let's begin the action!"

Liu Chi stood up from his chair and walked towards the crowd.

Under the night sky, the light-stone street lamps that should have been on inexplicably did not light up tonight, and the dim streets were illuminated only by a little bleak white moonlight.

After seeing that the entire hotel behind him was covered by a layer of barrier, Liu Chi led his group out of the small square.

"I'll be waiting for you here. Go forward. The group of people should be just ahead. They'll be there soon."

"follow me!"

Yang Xi carried his own giant sword, Sorrow Frost, and whispered to the crowd.

Soon, the group, led by Yang Xi, left Liu Chi's sight.

Liu Chi sat on a public seat on the street in front of the square, trying his best to cover the outside of his soul domain.

Liu Chi knew in his heart that he had been targeted. The cold arrow shot from the crowd two days ago was the best answer.

The reason why they dared to provoke me showed that the enemy knew me very well, and what Liu Chi did was to give the enemy such an opportunity, a chance to be left alone.

Feeling the two people suddenly breaking into the soul realm and maintaining high-speed movement, Liu Chi smiled.

Because he sensed that one of them was the woman who had shot him in the back.

After retracting the soul domain to within a few meters of himself, Liu Chi closed his eyes and waited quietly for the arrival of the two.

After hearing the sound of footsteps, Liu Chi asked in a low voice,

"You two, are you here?"

Although both the man and the woman were masked, Liu Chi had already memorized their appearances in the suddenly expanded area.

One was a blond young man, and the other was a young red-haired girl, about fourteen years old.

"Are you the Mu Liuchi? What I saw today is indeed extraordinary."

There was no emotion in the man's words. It was as if he had deliberately changed his original voice and forced it.

"I'm sorry, I have no relationship with the Mu family. If I did, would you dare to provoke me like this?"

Liu Chi still had his eyes closed. Instead of relying on his eyesight to observe the two people in the dark, he might as well use his spiritual realm to perceive them directly.

"Haha! How can you be sure that we are here to provoke you?"

The man's laughter was so low that it was hard to tell that he was laughing, but rather it sounded a little weird.

Seeing that the two did not attack him, Liu Chi asked directly,

"As a member of the Western royal family, what is your purpose?"

When asked by Liu Chi, the man's expression covered by the black cloth showed something wrong, and he asked,

"How do you know that I am a royal?"

Hearing this, Liu Chi burst into laughter.

"Since you asked this question, it means that you are most likely a member of the royal family."

Liu Chi paused, his tone became harsh, and he asked,

"What is your relationship with the Eastern Star? And what exactly do you want to do? If you wanted to kill me, you could have done it just now, right?"

"Hahaha!"

The man finally laughed using his original voice and said,

"Eastern Star is just a small tool for me to make money. The people below have gone too far. I want to apologize but it's too late!"

Liu Chi knew very well that without the man's tacit consent, his servants would never have the courage to kidnap a member of the royal family, or in other words, to provoke him.

"I see, you have other purposes, right? You certainly wouldn't be interested in such a small piece of meat, right?"

Then, a ball of fire rose from the palm of the girl nearby, instantly illuminating the surroundings.

After seeing that Liu Chi had his eyes closed, both of them looked incredulous.

After feeling the light of the flame, Liu Chi opened his eyes, and the man and the girl also took off the veils covering their cheeks.
