Chapter 165: Why Am I Still Leveling Up?
Translator: Lonelytree
Xiuyi was taken aback before turning serious.
“Please share with us.”
Matthew turned to Bobo.
“I remember Yu Lian telling us that day that the Sandstorm Bandits had recently erupted into internal strife. Both sides have been constantly fighting in the city, but in the end, they have mistaken their targets several times. The ones who died were all outsiders, right?”
Bobo nodded vigorously.
Matthew chuckled.
“The bandit gang got the wrong target? You must be joking!
“I can understand if they are a knight regiment or a warrior regiment, but I can’t understand how a bandit regiment that is famous for intelligence investigation and accurate assassination could get their targets wrong!”
Realization dawned on Bobo.
“So that fatty lied to us!”
Xiuyi coughed when he heard that.
” Uh, he probably didn’t lie to you. I’ve also verified this information. It’s true. The places where both sides exchanged fire were both inside and outside the city of Condor, and most of the people who died were indeed outsiders who were accidentally involved.”
Matthew gave a direct conclusion.
I think that the internal strife of the Sandstorm Bandits might be an act. Yu Lian once told me that, other than me, he also sold the news of the seabed tomb to another group. This means that someone might be interested in the seabed tomb, but he did not dare to take the risk. Therefore, he found the Sandstorm Bandits and put on an act. His ultimate goal was to encourage the Dragon Lich Sect to scout the way first.
“Of course, this was only one of the guesses. There were many different situations, and my guesses had many loopholes.
“For example, if the Dragon Lich Sect was strong enough to take down the seabed tomb, the mastermind might not get anything. This would not work.
“For example, it was doubtful that such a smart Blinken would take the bait
just because of the internal strife of the Sandstorm Bandits.
“In short, there are indeed many loopholes in this matter. We haven’t found out the truth yet, but we can use these to negotiate with Blinken first.
“From the way he snatched the Verdant Branch and left the Black Banyan dream realm in time, it could be seen that he was a rational person. “As long as he was rational, no matter how evil he was, he could still negotiate.”
After saying this, Matthew was a little thirsty, so he picked a leaf and twisted it into a funnel shape. He rubbed a glass of water for himself and asked everyone as he drank,
“What do you think?”
Su Ya rested her chin on her hand as she looked at Matthew with relish. She also crossed her legs.
Lumiere shook his head silently.
Bobo seemed to have entered a standstill state.
Only Xiuyi exclaimed,
“Your thinking is really clear. You can grasp so many key points at once. I think you’re more qualified to be a spy than me! Why didn’t such an outstanding mage like you join the Seven Saint Alliance?”
Matthew smiled modestly.
“If it were any other mage, they might be able to analyze it more thoroughly than I do.”
The few of them discussed for a while.
In the end, even Su Ya tacitly agreed to Matthew’s plan.
Matthew let the others rest for a while.
He said that he needed to find a place to write two letters.
Although he was confident in his plan, he was also worried that he was too young and inexperienced. The plan he formulated might have hidden dangers. Therefore, he decided to write a letter to ask the experienced big shots.
Originally, Master Ronan was the best advisor.
It was a pity that he wasn’t here. Matthew was going to write to Zeller, hoping that his seniors, including Zeller, Richard, and Li Weiqi, could give him some advice.
The other letter was intended for Peggy. Although he had completed his advancement, it was obviously not Matthew’s style to leave the matter of the Dragon Lich Sect alone.
As a result, he might stay in the South for more than a month, and he would have to remind Peggy of many things.
The content that he was about to write went through his mind.
Matthew took out a letter and a pen from his bag. At this moment, Su Ya’s voice sounded in his ear.
“Follow me.”
Then, Matthew saw a beautiful figure quickly disappear into the forest on his left.
He stood up and walked in that direction without batting an eyelid.
However, Matthew did not know that Bobo and Lumiere, who had long since noticed his abnormality, saw this scene.
The two of them looked at each other and then looked at the throne. However, there was no trace of the Soul of the Rainforest on the throne.
Lumiere had a complicated look on his face and did not speak.
Bobo suddenly asked, “If a human and a Nature Soul mate, will she give birth to a human or a Nature Soul?”
Lumiere was stunned. “Uh, they shouldn’t have reached this level, right?”
Bobo looked at him in disdain. “Are you blind?”
Lumiere scratched his head in embarrassment.
“Sorry, this question is beyond my knowledge. I really don’t know what will
happen. After all, I’m just a country bumpkin who hasn’t left the rainforest much.”
Bobo said seriously, “Please don’t say that.”
Lumiere’s heart warmed.
In the next second.
Bobo said seriously, “Country bumpkins might even have more knowledge than you!”
Lumiere’s face stiffened.
“Here, this one is for you. Don’t be dejected anymore.”
Bobo randomly took out a colourful candy and an alarm clock from her bag. She placed the alarm clock on the ground and patted the button on it. The clock’s needle slowly moved.
Then she handed the colourful candy to Lumiere.
“I’ll treat you to a ‘smart candy’. You’ll become smarter after eating it.”
Lumiere gratefully accepted the candy, but he did not eat it but put it in his pocket close to his chest..
