Your skills are excellent, and now I have them too.

Chapter 118 The Final Battle is Imminent

Luo Tianchong rarely reminisces about the past, so he actually told Lu Zhao about how he made his fortune, but it only took him less than an hour.

Even so, Lu Zhao still achieved 15% of the loading progress, and the total progress is now 30%.

Although the loading process for the red special skill is slower, its advantage lies in the fact that the two of them are now undercover here, and their emotions will inevitably be more sensitive, unlike when they were harassing Zhou Changsheng in Guzhongzhou.

"Alright then, Lao Luo, you go ahead with your work. I'll be going now."

'

What a strange title.

Putting everything else aside, Luo Tianchong felt that this kid was quite interesting.

He thought of his two children whom he had secretly sent to Liu Jinzhou. They grew up in a stable environment with many prestigious universities. They were polite and well-mannered, and he was sure they would become talented people in the future.

However, if he didn't have to worry about his future, he would prefer that his children, like the young people in front of him, could laugh and joke with him and talk about the past.

But that's impossible. If we want our descendants to have a stable life, we must keep them away from the quagmire of Vientiane Island.

"Oh, all done talking?"

As soon as the office door opened, Bu Tianyan was standing in the doorway. There were already five or six cigarette butts in the glass ashtray on the floor, indicating that he had been outside the door the whole time.

Lu Zhao waved casually as a greeting, like a rebellious young knight-errant, and then headed for the elevator.

Bu Tianyan came in, closed the soundproof door, and still whispered, "Brother, are you sure you want to bring the Sui family father and son along?"

"Um."

Luo Tianchong said, "Their military strength is very important."

"No, I mean, you also think they're trustworthy?"

"Oh? So you trust me completely?"

"Of course."

Bu Tianyan didn't need to lie to his elder brother. "Old Sui does things purely out of interest. He used to work for the Jinsha Group in Fengyan County for a while. Apart from the coincidence of his appearance, I didn't really see anything wrong with him."

This little Sui... he's caused such a commotion, if he were a cop, would he have gotten that old dog Zhao to cooperate in this charade?"

He could never have imagined that Zhao Yu hadn't cooperated at all, that it was all genuine emotion; he also couldn't have imagined that the one secretly plotting this wasn't the Public Security Bureau, but something far more terrifying to him.

Luo Tianchong said, "It doesn't matter. Whether you believe it or not, if there are problems during the transport, we'll still have to rely on their abilities; if things go smoothly, they won't need to come back."

"What?"

Bu Tianyan was stunned. "You don't need to come back?"

"Well, these kinds of unorthodox rogues are hard to control. Maybe one day he'll leave us just like he left the Gold Sands Group. We'll have to silence him then."

"It's better to just hand it over to those people to handle. Anyway, once this deal is done, they'll provide military support, and then we won't need this father and son anymore."

Luo Tianchong said coldly.

He genuinely found Lu Zhao interesting, but that wouldn't affect his decision.

Even a ruthless gang leader like Bu Tianyan seems somewhat naive in the face of such merciless ruthlessness.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

This office has double soundproofing, so you can't hear anyone knocking on the door; a doorbell is necessary.

Bu Tianyan went to open the door, and Lu Zhao appeared at the door again.

"Old Luo... uh, Uncle, I'm currently in the Steel Bone Realm and need a dose of Spirit Flow Clearing Powder. Could you...?"

"Hehehe, Tianyan, you handle this."

"no problem."

Bu Tianyan's smile was somewhat ferocious, but that's how he usually is.

"Big corporations are just so efficient."

Lu Zhao made his request in the morning and received the elixir in the afternoon.

This is a finely ground green powder. After mixing it with water and drinking it, and then using it in conjunction with several kinds of medicinal herbs for fumigation every day, it can achieve the desired effect.

He looked at Sui Chaoyu, who was coming down from upstairs.

"I want to eat barbecue."

"The smell is too strong, and it's oily. Clean the floor yourself if you make a mess."

"Let's eat out then."

"where?"

"How should I know? You lead the way."

The two bickered as they left the Radish Group building.

Only by going outside to the roadside could they safely and discreetly exchange information, because the building was the territory of the Luo brothers, and there might be listening devices hidden in the wires.

"Hey, Lao Sui, that's what I call it. Help me check if this medicine is genuine."

Lu Zhao handed over the small bag that Luo Tianchong's secretary had given him.

Sui Chaoyu dipped her finger in the water and inhaled it through her nostrils.

"The goods are fine," he said, sniffling.

'

I feel like I often see this action in crime movies.

Lu Zhao asked, "Old Sui, have you never been to a garrison before?"

Sui Chaoyu said, "Yes, what's wrong? I've always been a江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the martial arts world) person. Later, Commander Meng recruited me."

No wonder his identity was so genuine; there was no way Bu Tianyan could see through it.

The biggest challenge is actually developing a wandering knight of such high skill into an informant, and then trusting him so much to carry out a mission of this caliber.

This shows that Meng Qing, the commander of the Linglong Guard, is not only highly capable, but also trusts his subordinates implicitly.

The place where the two ate was a dilapidated long street, with one- or two-story self-built houses on both sides. But it was already the most prosperous street in the nearby shantytown. Even the people sitting in front of the hair salon were more attractive. It was considered high-end consumption in the shantytown, and only people who had made a small fortune would come here.

In a secluded spot on the rooftop, the two exchanged information.

"What? You didn't make that up?"

After hearing Lu Zhao's story, Sui Chaoyu was also shocked. "You said that woman was at the Dragon Gate Realm? And she was very young?"

"Maybe he's three or four years older than me."

"It's like bringing good fortune to a woman who is three years older than you."

"Stop joking..." Lu Zhao said.

Sui Chaoyu smiled and said, "Such a young Dragon Gate Realm cultivator must have quite a background."

"Weren't you the same back then?"

"I'm not simple either."

'

'

Lu Zhao realized he really couldn't refute it: "By the way, I learned some things from them, about the Zhao family's Pudu Pharmaceutical Company, do you know anything about it?"

"Hmph, those bastards will do anything to curry favor with the powerful and wealthy in the city. They've killed countless people and have a mountain of lawsuits against them, but no one in the city can bring them down."

"Because Zhao Jinlong's uncle is the governor of a province?"

"Because they curried favor with the powerful and wealthy in the city."

Sui Chaoyu uttered the same conclusion as Lu Zhao in a low voice: "Wanxiangzhou is completely rotten."

I don't like getting involved in business matters, but I'm pretty sure Luo Tianchong is also a lackey of those powerful people, and he's definitely connected to the Governor's Office. If Song Qingfeng really has a problem..."

He paused, waiting for the truck downstairs to drive away down the narrow street so he wouldn't have to raise his voice. "With him gone, all the idiots will be wiped out."

Lu Zhao frowned slightly: "It's not that simple..."

"How so?"

"Song Qingfeng must not know about Luo Tianchong's underhanded tricks, otherwise he definitely wouldn't tolerate him."

Lu Zhao recalled the conversation in the office. The reason why the man surnamed Luo was willing to take such a risk was because he didn't want to be a dog.

He analyzed, "The local powerful and influential have deep roots and control over the surrounding areas, but they haven't rebelled and are difficult to touch. Does no one know about the chaos here? It's just that no one cares."

At the time, Deputy Commander Ling told me that no matter who was involved, their entire family would be exterminated, but he said this on the premise that the mission would be successfully completed.

"If our operation fails, Commander Meng will be considered incompetent. He'll be lucky if he doesn't face repercussions; he certainly won't be able to defeat a powerful regional official like Song Qingfeng as a defeated general."

Sui Chaoyu nodded slowly: "That makes sense. You have a long-term vision."

He was a wandering knight-errant, strong as he was, but he was disadvantaged by his lack of education and couldn't understand the big picture of the struggle, so he could only do specific tasks.

Lu Zhao's advantage lies in his high level of education and his past passion for history. He believes that the essence of struggle in any world is the interests of people's hearts, so he can apply this principle.

The current situation involves two steps. The first step is to crack down on the rebel party, which is a red line that no one can interfere with. The second step is still a power struggle between the central government and local strongmen, but it is not on the same level as a trivial matter like conducting an assessment to determine a first-class military merit.

Once the first step is completed, the second step will naturally follow. Conversely, if the first step fails, the second step is out of the question.

"Since you've put it that way," Sui Chaoyu said, "let's focus on getting this matter done properly. Judging from Luo Tianchong's tone, it's happening soon. I'll send a message back to have them prepare the Qingming Guard and Linglong Guard. Once it happens, it will be a decisive battle."

Lu Zhao, after all, had to obey Sui Chaoyu's orders, so he asked, "What about me? Is there anything I can do right now?"

"Hmm... In my opinion, although you've been away for half a month, you've unexpectedly gained their trust, and you're strong enough that they'll most likely take you with them when the time comes."

So what you need to do now is avoid unnecessary complications, maintain trust, and at the same time, cultivate as much as possible. The stronger you are, the higher your margin for error will be later. By the way, what level are you at in the Steel Bone Realm?

"After taking your medicine."

Lu Zhao shook the bag in his hand. "It's probably close to the Overflowing Realm."

Sui Chaoyu's expression clearly became puzzled.

"So fast? Are you cheating?"
