Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls-Chapter 523 - 276: Southern Faction’s Plot, Holding the Leverage

Chapter 523: Chapter 276: Southern Faction’s Plot, Holding the Leverage

"Colonel Changl Li, the mages, according to our agreement, have already taken action. Currently, within the Sea Country, there is significant resentment towards the Duorong Federation. The people we’ve hired are also beginning to spread the news extensively, deepening the hatred of all the residents towards Duorong as much as possible."

"I believe within a few days, this matter can be brought up as an agenda item in the Sea Country Council."

"At this point, even if the northern military faction opposes us, the Sovereign will lean towards our side."

"Most of the preparation is complete. Next, I need to collect confirmation signatures from each of you colonels, and with the majority of officers jointly issuing a request for battle to the Sovereign, he will inevitably be unable to refuse this matter."

In the tavern’s hidden upper layer used to entertain guests by the Dwarf Race, came the sound of low discussions, causing Fang Yu’s expression to change slightly, with countless thoughts swirling in his mind.

All these words were spoken by a man who suddenly appeared, addressing Changl Li.

The information revealed within made Fang Yu internally tremble, almost causing him to inadvertently expose his presence.

Mages who escaped from the Sin Domain were actually invited by certain forces within Lanyun Sea Country to attack the borders of Lanyun Sea Country?

The purpose is to force all forces within Lanyun Sea Country onto a unified front to launch an offensive against the Duorong Federation?

What a cunning move, crying thief while being the thief. The affair of the mages was not a conspiracy by the Peacekeeping Council but a play arranged by a faction on Changl Li’s side within the Lanyun Sea Country.

...No!

Fang Yu’s expression suddenly changed.

The two are not in conflict.

Perhaps some politicians within Lanyun Sea Country wish to start a war and launch a sea country war against Duorong.

And this perhaps aligns with the interests of a hidden member of the Peacekeeping Council, allowing this to happen under their secret guidance.

This means that the hidden member of the Peacekeeping Council might be concealed within the Lanyun Sea Country, among the military faction promoting war?

Fang Yu felt a surge of excitement internally, with a bit of joy.

It’s not that one fears the opponent’s conspiracies; it’s that one fears having no clues. There’s nothing that can’t be resolved through operations.

But operations need a leverage point; without it, nothing can be set in motion regardless of effort.

And currently, due to this information, the hidden range of that mysterious Peacekeeping Council member is narrowed down.

Perhaps by following this line of conspiracy, Fang Yu could find the identity of that Peacekeeping Council member.

"Signatures? No problem..."

At this moment, Changl Li’s voice resonated from within the tavern.

Their voices were so soft that even the Dwarf Race inside the tavern couldn’t hear them, yet Fang Yu, whose life level evolution wasn’t low, could clearly hear their secret plan.

"However, I worry, is launching a war now truly a good choice? Will the Ocean Court intervene? If the Ocean Court intervenes, this matter may not proceed as we wish."

"No worries!"

At this point, the man’s voice rang out; he lowered his voice and spoke softly to Changl Li:

"The rising officer of the Duorong Federation, Kong Huaao, has already been held under our control. By then, we can forge letters, framing the release of the Sin Domain on Kong Huaao and the Duorong Federation."

"Anyway, the application to release the Sin Domain prisoners was indeed submitted to the Ocean Court by Kong Huaao on behalf of the Duorong Federation. The evidence chain is quite compelling, leaving the Ocean Court no reason to disbelieve."

"Rightfully, the mage attack can naturally be blamed on the Duorong Federation; it’s as if the Duorong Federation took the initiative to infringe on Lanyun Sea Country’s territory, so our counterattack won’t be unreasonable."

"Moreover... in the matter of the Sin Domain’s escape, the Ocean Court itself is in a huge mess. If, at this time, a scapegoat can be found to vent their anger, the Ocean Court will also direct their rage towards the Duorong Federation."

"By then, our war might even gain support from the Ocean Court."

The person chuckled, speaking in a low voice.

"Good, although Duorong once fought side by side with our country, the bond forged through combat is quickly forgotten. They frequently infringe upon our Southeast Sea Region, and my southern military faction has endured for a long time. Now is the time to end it once and for all."

"Give me the documents, and I’ll sign as well!"

"Good, Colonel Changl Li is noble!"

...

Soon, from within the private room came the sound of rustling. It seemed as if both parties were signing the related documents.

Up to this moment, Fang Yu had been restraining his presence continuously, not exposing himself, to prevent alerting the enemies.

After a while, the person spoke in a very satisfied tone: "Excellent, with Colonel Changl Li’s expression of intent, we are more assured. I will go back and deliver the colonel’s signed letter to the major general."

"Alright, you leave first. I’ll have a few more drinks so that when I return, the smell of alcohol on me will prevent others from suspecting anything."

"Colonel Changl Li is meticulous in his thoughts, much respected. I’ll take my leave first then."

The sounds quickly came, causing Fang Yu’s expression to tighten, quietly mobilizing the Space Law to conceal his presence as much as possible.

Quickly, the tavern door opened.

The man’s figure emerged from the tavern.

He glanced around, then stood still, carefully sensing. After finding nothing unusual, he moved quietly, disappearing within Nova Village.

Leaving only Changl Li, sitting in the tavern, still drinking.

"Shopkeeper, another jug of Blood Ant Wine!"

Changl Li’s voice soon echoed from the private room.
