Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland.

Chapter 581 Taking advantage of the situation
The thought of his companions falling into the hands of someone like Tengu.

Anyone would have trouble sleeping and eating.

Especially once they give up such an opportunity, the anti-slavery forces will have to wait until the next time to recover their strength and make new plans... and they don't know when that will be.

And in the meantime.

Every minute of delay means the people in the vault will suffer more... every moment.

Gray can keep his current calm.

It's already a miracle.

In order to maintain the entire organization and not be swayed by emotions, there is not much room for impulse.

However, Lu Meng also thought that the assassin Lu Jin who was thrown out was indeed a legend in this generation of the continent, just like Cang Cui in the field of shooters.

Although fame does not equal strength.

But it also depends on the other party's starting point.

He was merely a peripheral member who received some instruction from anti-slavery activists, but he gained his own insights and grew to the point where he could successfully assassinate aristocratic lords.

This is what is called genius.

It can be said that even among the official members of the anti-slavery movement, there were not many who could match him in talent.

——The fact that she was noticed by Tengu proves this point to some extent.

If such a person can continue to be trained, in time, he may have the opportunity to become a master assassin like More of the Wave Ninja Group.

In contrast.

The descendants of the shadow people of the Rushui tribe are all considered juniors, not to mention the Black Dragon Ninja and other miscellaneous ones.

It’s a pity that we entered the vault dungeon… Lu Meng thought.

Judging from the time, the anti-slavery forces did not succeed in jailbreaking and rescuing Lukin in the end, so Long En’s goal was achieved.

And wait until the game starts.

By the time the player was able to contact Lukin, he had already been tortured in the dungeon for many years.

As far as an assassin is concerned.

From the mental to the physical, this is extremely damaging to his talent... In other words, the time when Lukin was just imprisoned was already the peak of his destiny.

And the other side.

Ji Hai, another animal taming genius and substitute that Lu Meng had just discovered, was both happy and sad after hearing the news about his friend.

The two parties had different statuses. One was the young patriarch of the White Eyebrow Clan, the dominant tribe in Shan land, and he just came to South United City for socializing; while the other was the son of a bankrupt farmer and a slave who was on the run.

But they were involved together because of the Bloody Rebellion, and this friendship cannot be fake.

However, Ji Hai did not ask for anything because of this. He did not force the anti-slavery fighters or the Red King to rescue his friends - now he understood the importance of timing more than ever before.

But Lu Meng could also see it.

The young man was obviously absent-minded when he was managing the wolf cavalry in training later, and was almost knocked to the ground by an out-of-control Boneyard Wolf once again.

Couldn't escape.

For a trainer with his talent, this is almost impossible.

Therefore, before coming to meet Hui, Lu Meng gave Ji Hai a holiday and left the wolf cavalry to Qi Ke and others to manage.

And he understood.

The concerns of both the anti-slavers and Ji Hai lie in the absolute gap in strength between them and the United Cities.

Tengu's dungeon is in the heart of the United Cities. To break into it head-on is tantamount to declaring war on the empire. It is also necessary to defeat their army at the border and ensure that the other side does not take the prisoners as hostages... This is almost impossible.

Therefore, we can only sneak in secretly.

This should have been the forte of the anti-slavery forces, as they were few in number and used elite tactics, making them less likely to be detected.

But when Long En launched the ambush, it was obvious that the other side already knew the anti-slavers' goal and only needed to set up a defense line around the dungeon.

Waiting for the enemy to fall into the trap. - Long En knew that Mr. Gray would not be so stupid, and Gray also knew that Long En knew that he knew.

Such a deadlock.

Those who can't afford to waste time are the anti-slavery people.

Having lost their biggest advantage of being in the dark while the enemy is in the open, anti-slavery advocates would not dare to gamble even if the Tengu dungeon was completely undefended.

What if the enemy sends out two war-level generals or even more United City generals like they did when they ambushed Marian...

Lu Meng's previous fight with Diu was just a test. Neither side had the intention to kill him. He could have a slight advantage, while the other side suffered no damage.

If it really becomes a life-and-death struggle.

The gap will only widen further.

The scene will be even more tragic.

Today's anti-slavery forces are not yet able to fight such a decisive battle, and the same is true for Lu Meng.

"Kill with a borrowed knife..." A whisper came out slowly from Lu Meng's mouth, and he repeated the words that Hui had said before, "And that war-level that suddenly appeared..."

"Hmm?" Mr. Gray looked at him.

"Nothing." Lu Meng said, "By the way... What does Xiquan think of the revenge land?"

"Skyfire?" Unexpectedly, Lu Meng suddenly changed the subject to this point. The Bee Prince just answered casually, "I remember Tin Fist once said - 'Things on the ground haven't been resolved yet, we don't have time to worry about the sky.'"

"Yeah." Lu Meng nodded.

He was not surprised.

"Mr. Gray, how long do you anti-slavery people plan to stay in Shem?"

"I've accepted your and Hamt's commission, and I need to do it as soon as possible. I guess... huh?" This sounded a bit like seeing someone off, so Gray answered casually.

But then, with his ability, he quickly realized the meaning of Lu Meng's words.

"That's right. Long En likes to kill people with borrowed knives. The Merchant Guild also has many sharp blades that can be used..." Lu Meng laughed, "But not all of these knives are obedient."

Because interests are combined.

It is possible that they will go their separate ways because of interests.

Even the Big Black Eyebrow in the Swamp and the Faceless in the Flashing Land...when they followed the instructions of the Merchant Guild, they also had their own little calculations in their hearts.

As a puppet, no one would be willing to dance on the strings for the rest of their life.

Not to mention others?
"Long En wants to preserve his own strength, so he always tends to use others first," Mr. Gray narrowed his eyes, "This is also the basis of his fortune."

It can be said that it is always successful.

Otherwise, as a common businessman, if he did not leverage the interests of multiple parties, he would have no chance to be above the nobles like he is today.

But things are different now.

With Long En’s current position, there are fewer and fewer people and forces worthy of his use, otherwise they will not be of any value at all - and this also means that his methods are becoming increasingly difficult to hide.

For example, South Union City.

This is already a tell-all.

With just a little screening, we can know which force the exposed war-level person comes from.

Even the so-called "trump cards" left.

It wouldn't be a secret for Lu Meng.

Lu Meng: "Besides, time is actually on our side."

He looked at the changes in the construction progress of the [Holy Base] stronghold on the panel.

Said so.
