Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 2739: Sealing the Acropolis
"Could it be that the Duobao Trading House captured the seventh-level monster for Lin Zhi some time ago?" After a brief surprise, Lin Hu had already guessed the origin of the seventh-level monster.
Of course, it was impossible for Zuo Feng and his men to bring monsters into the city, which means that this seventh-level monster was in the Acropolis before, and it suddenly appeared from the Duobao Trading House during the operation tonight. After such analysis, the origin of the seventh-level monster next to Zuo Feng is about to be revealed.
The man in the cloak confirmed Lin Hu's guess and said, "It is the seventh-level monster. Now it has come together with Zuo Feng. I think you should understand how difficult it is to deal with it now. Even if you have special means and a group of men around you, I believe you are not sure to capture Zuo Feng in the hands of the seventh-level peak monster."
"Are you sure you can deal with the seventh-level monster?" Lin Hu seemed to have thought of a question, and his eyes showed a vigilant look.
The person in front of him dared to help him capture Zuo Feng so confidently, so the most reasonable explanation was that he had the strength to deal with the seventh-level monster. If this was really the case, Lin Hu would have to reconsider the cooperation between them.
Real cooperation is when the strength of both parties is not much different and both parties can benefit from it. When the strength of both parties is not at the same level, the so-called cooperation is nothing more than using and being used.
Even if the person in front of him had any promises, he could break the contract in the end. After all, he has absolute strength, and Lin Hu can't refuse it.
Under the hood of the cloak, the man's eyes smiled again, as if he had seen Lin Hu's worries, and said: "If I have the ability to deal with the seventh-level monster independently, I don't need to cooperate with you. The reason why I need to cooperate with the young pavilion master is that neither you nor I have the ability to capture Zuo Feng alone, and even if we work together, we still can't capture Zuo Feng."
After the other party said this, Lin Hu became more puzzled and immediately asked: "Since you and I can't capture Zuo Feng, what's the point of our cooperation? You should know my purpose. Now there is only Zuo Feng."
The man in the cloak said very confidently: "What we can't do together does not mean that the strong men in the city can't do anything to the seventh-level monster."
If the two sides meet and the other party throws out such a statement, Lin Hu will not even bother to talk nonsense with the other party, and will directly take down the other party first and then talk.
However, after a conversation, Lin Hu felt that the other party was not simple at all. Not only was every proposal and every piece of information well-founded, but the intelligence and clues the other party had were definitely far beyond his own.
Therefore, Lin Hu did not feel absurd after hearing what the other party said, but was only confused and puzzled.
"I hope you are not joking. You should know my identity, and you should know that after the chaos tonight, I have completely broken with Benxiao Pavilion and Ye Lin Empire. Even if there are still a group of strong men from Benxiao Pavilion and the power of the city guards in the city, do you think they might help me deal with the seventh-level monster and Zuo Feng?"
The man on the opposite side nodded confidently and said, "Of course I have my own way to get them to take action. Although there is no cooperation, I can get them to help me deal with the seventh-level monster and Zuo Feng. I am sure of this."
The two looked at each other from a distance, although the man was wearing a cloak and his face was covered. But it did not affect Lin Hu's observation of the other party's eyes, and the man's eyes looked very calm, which was indeed a manifestation of absolute confidence.
"How do you want them to take action?" Lin Hu asked again with a tentative meaning. However, after he saw the smile in the other party's eyes, he knew that he underestimated the other party.
The man opposite said with a smile in his eyes: "Can I understand that I can work together with the young pavilion master now?"
After staring at the man in the cloak in front of him for a long time, Lin Hu said: "I think cooperation should not be so simple. There should be some things that I need to do, right?"
Lin Hu was not affected by the other party's tempting proposal, but asked the person opposite after a calm analysis.
The man in the cloak smiled and nodded, saying, "The cooperation is nothing more than each taking what they need, and what I want to get has just been made clear. But now I need the little pavilion master to do one thing, a very simple thing."
Lin Hu ignored the so-called "simple" word, because he didn't believe that anything would be simple at this moment.
"What do you want, tell me first."
The man in the cloak said very straightforwardly: "I need the help of the little pavilion master to temporarily completely seal off the Acropolis."
"Isn't the Acropolis now completely closed?" Lin Hu asked puzzled.
The man opposite shook his head and said, "But this kind of closure is far from enough. Now it's just Benxiao Pavilion and the city guards who restrict entry and exit by force. What I mean is a complete ban, using the formation to 'seal' the Acropolis."
Hearing this, Lin Hu suddenly became alert. He had originally planned to cooperate with the other party, but after listening to the words of the man in front of him, the first thought that came to his mind was to give up cooperation.
Raising his hand and waving it gently, the man opposite said, "Young Pavilion Master, please be patient and listen to what I have to say. The reason for this proposal is actually to ensure that our actions can be carried out smoothly."
After calming Lin Hu down, the man continued, "Young Pavilion Master should know what kind of strength a peak seventh-level monster is. Even if all the strong men in the Acropolis work together, we may not be sure to keep the other party."
"But my goal is not the monster, I want to get Zuo Feng, even if the monster can escape, what does it have to do with me?" Lin Hu has begun to be alert, and even with his hands behind his back, he has made a gesture to let the people behind him prepare for the battle.
The man opposite flashed a cold light in his eyes, and then said, "Since we are cooperating with each other, I think the young pavilion master should show more sincerity, and since I dare to come to see you, I naturally have my own confidence. I hope you don't be confused for a while, and end up with nothing."
He only made a gesture, but the other party already knew it. This shocked Zuo Feng, and he seemed to think of something.
"Young Pavilion Master should know that capturing Zuo Feng is indeed one of your goals, but don't forget that it is only the first step. If you cannot leave the Acropolis smoothly, even if you hold Zuo Feng in your hand, what is the point for you.
If this seventh-level monster breaks through by force, or even breaks through the city gate to leave the Acropolis, then I can't guarantee that Benxiao Pavilion and the city guards will turn around to deal with you, and at that time, how many chances will you have to get away with Zuo Feng smoothly."
Listening to the other party's analysis, Lin Hu's eyes changed unsteadily, as if analyzing the other party's words. After a while, Lin Hu said, "It seems that you have planned all this. I am afraid that from the beginning, including me, it is also in your plan."
At this point, Lin Hu slowly looked at the man in front of him and said softly, "My county magistrate, Boka. It seems that we all underestimated you from the beginning."
"Haha." The man in the cloak gently lifted the hood on his head and pulled down the scarf on his face, revealing his appearance. This person is Boka, the governor of Donglin County.
No one would have thought that many things tonight, even the person who took Benxiao Pavilion and the City Lord's Mansion into account, would be Boka, who is now almost alone.
It's no wonder that everyone ignored Boka. After the incident in Licheng, Benxiao Pavilion couldn't let Lin Hu bear all the blame. If that was the case, Wu Tian would not be able to escape punishment.
So after discussion, Wu Tian and others decided to push Boka out and bear most of the blame. As for how the Empire would deal with Boka, no one took it seriously at all.
When leaving Donglin County, Boka already knew the plans of Wu Tian and others in Benxiao Pavilion, and even though he had a lot of resentment in his heart, he never showed it on the surface. He chose to remain silent, but it did not mean that he would accept this treatment, let alone let Wu Tian and others get their wish.
After so many years of being a county governor, Boka not only honed his character and temper, but also made him have far more scheming and calculations than ordinary people. More importantly, Boka, who had great ambitions, secretly developed a large number of "own people".
Some of these "own people" were just ordinary cabinet members in Benxiao Pavilion, and some had their own power in Xinshu County, which was adjacent to Donglin County. Even among Jiang Xin's city guards, there were also Boka's confidants.
When Lin Hu was secretly planning and felt that everything was going on in a very secretive manner, not only Zuo Feng knew his purpose, but Boka even knew every step of Lin Hu's plan clearly.
After learning about Lin Hu's plan, Borka immediately started to plan accordingly. He did not destroy Lin Hu's plan, but chose to take advantage of it and directly turned the Acropolis into a bloody feast of monsters. In this way, both Wu Tian and Jiang Xin would be severely punished by the empire.
However, the changes in things still exceeded Borka's expectations. The sudden appearance of the seventh-level monster, Benxiao Pavilion and the City Lord's Mansion joined forces to deal with Duobao Trading Company to cover up their private activities.
Originally, Borka wanted to cause chaos, find a way to capture Zuo Feng, obtain all his secrets, and then take the Eight Gates Locking Formation for himself.
However, after things changed far beyond his expectations, Borka immediately adjusted his plan, and the first step of his new plan was to cooperate with Lin Hu. Now it seems that there is no problem with the cooperation between the two, so the next step is to "seal the Acropolis" according to Borka's idea.
