Section 1971 Additional Contact Points

This battle should have caused a lot of trauma to this little guy. Li Cong could feel it himself, and he could see it from the absorption ability of this silver, which he could only absorb less than at night. 30 million taels of silver. Over there, 009 also came with a lot of silver. At least Li Cong doesn’t need to worry about the silver for a while. I really hope that I can let him eat more, but this little guy went to rest honestly after eating these. It looks like he won't come out in a short time. Li Cong also experienced life and death just now. It can be said that Li Cong had rarely experienced such a thing when he became a seventh-level magician. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing today at the contact point of Thunder Gate.

I don't really know what's going on here, are they really the only people here? Or will there be a lot of people? Did people elsewhere already know what's going on here? Li Cong didn't know these things, so there is no way to confirm it now. Li Cong asked his people to retreat. Even if they stare at such a place, there should be no good results. They are not Fool, no one will come here to clean up when something happens. If there are really important things here that have not been destroyed, someone may come here, but the guy just said that this place is actually a facade, nothing Yes, it's not worth the people from Thunder Gate to deal with things here, and this thread of mine has been cut off again.

"My lord, you don't need to worry that much. If this contact point here is in contact with the outside world, the people from the Thunder Gate in other places will probably have to attack some of our places in the next two days. At that time, it can always be done." Leave some clues." Seeing that Li Cong was a little unhappy, 009 said that what he said was also the result of the analysis by the people in the investigation department. Very strong, if this lightning gate is really used...

"Well, actually, that's what I thought of. It's not our main purpose to track down the news. Our main purpose is to eliminate them. But we don't have that much ability yet. We can only take it slowly and step by step. , This time there was such a big incident, the people from the Thunderbolt Gate must have contacted the forces around them when they set up this contact point. Now that something like this happened, they already knew who their enemy was. We have too many things to face in the next step." Li Cong said haggardly. Recovering a life did not make Li Cong so happy, but it made Li Cong see clearly the gap between himself and Thunder Gate, just like before. If it weren't for the plant life, I might really throw my head there now.

"Master, can we shrink a bit? Our current expansion is very strong, but we can focus on gathering some valuable things and deploy heavy troops in those places. As for other places, even if they attack, as long as it is We can persist, and they can't do anything to us." The 009 cableway, the investigation department has already made such a plan.

"You can arrange this matter immediately, so that some of the following businesses can be maintained, and they don't need to make a lot of money. We just spend this period of time recovering." Li Cong said helplessly,

This step is also the one that Li Cong is least willing to take. I didn't expect to reach this step in the end. It is impossible for my own training camp to have such a powerful character in a short time. Even if there is, look at others The strength, look at your own, it's not on the same level.

"Master, I wonder if the Northern Empire can help us?" 009 tentatively asked, but he didn't know.

"Hehe, they have already helped us by giving us a Storm Legion. It is not realistic for us to continue to ask them for help. They are not fools. If all the people from Thunderbolt Sect come out now, it is impossible for them Forget about us, don't think that what these guys say is so good. Politicians are the most hypocritical things in the world. You can't believe what they say. These guys, hehe, can't be counted on " Li Cong himself is very clear about politicians. He has dealt with them too often. Although he is not on this planet, he knows them well. I never thought of asking them for help, because it was useless at all.

"Then can we hire a huge mercenary group, I believe this can relieve us a lot." 009 thought of another way, the mercenary group responsible for such security work in this world is still possible.

"This method is not bad, but it's a bit hasty to look for it now. It's more or less a method. You can arrange someone to talk to the mercenary group immediately. No matter how much they ask, as long as they send Those who come out can help us, and we don’t need the rest of the matter, they can manage as much as they can, and don’t give them some rigid indicators.” Li Cong said, in fact, there is no way for this matter to be compared with these The people from the mercenary group explained that the Lightning Gate itself is unknown to everyone. No matter how much you tell people, they will not believe that there is such a big organization. If they really believe it, they probably won’t come. I chose to listen to you. With such a large organization, even your Cao's firm can't handle it. What ability do we have? You really think too highly of us, we are not that capable.

In fact, Li Cong has a very good object in his heart, that is the tiger mercenary group, but I don't know how their skills have become after the civil strife, but acquaintances will always be better at this time, so Li Cong wrote a Ask someone to bring the letter to Bai Er, and ask Bai Er to go to the headquarters of the Tiger Mercenary Corps to inquire in person, and test their abilities by the way. There is no way. It can only be found elsewhere.

That night, things changed differently. In the past, Li Cong was looking for people from Thunder Gate to carry out some activities, but tonight Li Cong's Cao's firm suffered various attacks. Many people don't understand why Cao's firm, which seems to be in full swing on the surface, turned out like this today. After Li Cong woke up, the report was in Li Cong's hands, which surprised Li Cong. The door is outside the forces, and it seems that the characters that I got are not considered powerful characters at all. The really powerful role is still in the hands of others.

Stepping into Nanjun City. The 413,500 tons of grain in the two large grain warehouses of Cao's Commercial Bank were all soaked in water. It is definitely not something that can be done by ordinary people. This is definitely done by a magician, who can make hundreds of thousands of tons of grain became soaked in water. And no one has found out who did it. Except that magicians have such abilities. How could there be others? Ta'an Nanjun City is also the place where Li Cong suffered the most severe property losses. Three hours after the incident, Li Cong arrived at this place by airship.

A total of four counties suffered losses this time, but this is the most serious one. And there are also traces of magicians here. It can be said that Li Cong has never heard of any connection between magicians and this place. Compared with ordinary soldiers, the damage caused by this magician is definitely much more powerful than them , It is precisely for this reason that Li Cong came here.

The person in charge of the county city, Xi Mei, is a fourth-level soldier in her thirties. This guy is very good at doing business. Under his leadership, all businesses in the county city can really reach a new level every year. Yes, this guy has already been hinted by the above. If the growth rate of last year can be maintained today, this guy can be responsible for the business of a province. I didn't expect such a thing to happen at this time. Don't say If he can be promoted, even if he can keep his current position, it will be impossible.

"I'm sorry, master, it was my negligence. I was always thinking about how to develop, and I didn't even think about safety matters. I will bear the mistakes I should bear." This guy saw Li Cong first. This is what Li Cong said in one sentence, and Li Cong can't say anything in front of outsiders. After all, the matter of Thunder Gate is a secret, and now too many people can't let it know, and I will talk to this guy carefully in the carriage later. That's it, this guy saw that Li never made a statement, and the expression on his face was even uglier.

"Okay, don't say any more, we'll talk about it later when we get on the carriage." Li Cong nodded and said, in addition to the loss of these grains, they also lost a lot of things, the total price is estimated to be in the millions of taels of silver Left and right, the money is not very much, but Li Cong estimated that this is the beginning, and Li Cong held a meeting overnight to discuss, and their intelligence also drew several other counties and cities that suffered losses on the map. A bold guess came out, that is, these guys are not far from Taanan County City now, and the people from these two contact points know the situation here. According to Wu Xingjin, each of their contact points is responsible for three The affairs of a province, now at most it is the affairs of these few provinces, one of them was killed by Li Cong, then this is the nearby contact point, and this is how Thunder Gate works, they will not let outsiders The people contacted casually, in that case they will be out of control, but they can't have no contact, so one by one can still contact the adjacent contact point, this is just a guess, but the final result What is it, I don't know yet.

After getting into the carriage, Li Cong didn't need to keep that straight face anymore. No one knew if there were any of their spies around here. If Li Cong was still chatting and laughing as usual, the people around would definitely be suspicious, and many People don't know what the profit of Cao's Commercial Bank is, and they lost millions of silver. If their faces are not ugly, how can these people not think about it?

"Okay, don't be sour. This time it has nothing to do with you. How is your defense?" Li Cong said, looking at Xi Mei who dared not look up. This guy must be sad No way.

"Master, what... what's going on here?" Xi Mei hurriedly said when she heard Li Cong say that, but thinking of the rules of the firm, she shouldn't ask so many things, and the boss asked herself just now. He replied, and said quickly, "The defense force of our entire county is composed of a regiment of guards on our side. I must tell you that they are very dedicated. They usually don't We didn’t let this happen here, and this time it has nothing to do with them.” Xi Mei said, Li Cong nodded, this leader is still good, if the kind of person who is not willing to take responsibility will certainly not They will say that, they will definitely push such things to the guards, but this Ximei did not do that, which is enough to show that he is not a person who makes trouble, and the head of the guards next to him is very grateful .

"Well, what's your name?" Li Cong glanced at the head of the guard army in military uniform next to him and said.

"Reporting, Master. My subordinate is Ba Luoli. He is the commander of the third regiment of the independent brigade of the twenty-fifth division of the third army." You can't stand up in the carriage, but this guy doesn't have the slightest discount when he salutes. It is also very uncomfortable to know that the army here does not have such etiquette. They all knelt down and spoke. Who knew Master created something this way. I didn't feel much at first, but now it seems that this is indeed different from ordinary people.

"Well, it's good. You and your soldiers may not get involved in the next thing. You can tell your brothers to have a holiday after you go back, but I don't want them to go out to play casually. Everyone Let me mix with the common people, whether it is the city guards or some of the surrounding associations, their role is to go out to find some news, their weapons and equipment are left in the army, and someone will come to put on their clothes tonight , before these people leave, your task is to go out with 50 taels of silver each to find news for me, and ask them to investigate any places that are different from before, no need for in-depth investigation, as long as Just bring this news back to me." Li Cong said, there is nothing he can do about it, this place does not belong to his absolute control area, and it is not that simple to find those people. Tens of thousands of people have gone out to cast their nets, hoping that they can find all the news they want.

"Yes, young master, if there is nothing else, I'll get off the car and make arrangements immediately?" This guy is also impatient, mainly because such a thing happened within his jurisdiction, and the clan is not happy in his heart, although the young master said this The matter has nothing to do with my own people, but if I say that, I can accept it? That's impossible. At the beginning, several classmates in my military academy were all watching my jokes at the moment. The assessments of each of them were far from my own, but there was nothing wrong with them. Here I am If such a big thing happened, no matter what, it was all his own fault.

"Well, remember, even if you find something, you must never do it yourself. I understand the feelings of you people, and you want to wash away the shame on you. Remember what I told you in the military academy, these people are not them. opponents, if you really want to do something, you will be unable to do anything in the end, and you will lose your own lives. What should be done." Seeing the gleam in this guy's eyes, Li knew that this guy would definitely not let it go so easily, so he had to give an order.

"Yes, the subordinate understands that the subordinate will definitely not act rashly." The guy nodded and said, and then went out. Li Cong could see that his few words still had a great influence on this guy. At least not to do stupid things.

Xi Mei looked at her boss with some puzzlement. What's going on? Isn't there a dedicated person to do the intelligence work? How could it be on the heads of people like herself? People like myself can say that they are not responsible for these things? Is there not enough news now? That's what he thought in his heart, and Li Cong's words would soon be confirmed for him.

"How is your relationship with some news merchants or people with connections in the county?" Li Cong asked.

"Master, the relationship with them is still very good. We also need them to do things, and they have earned a lot of money from us. Do you want to talk to them, Master?" Xi Mei said boldly, He is very smooth in doing things. I dare not say that the entire city's associations give him face, but there is probably no problem with it. The government is even better. That is the most important thing. A person like him is Will never forget over there.

"Very well, let them check for me the people who have behaved suspiciously recently. The people I'm talking about are not people from outside, but local people. How they lived in the past and how they live now, as long as there is If there is any suspicious place, continue to investigate, especially those shops or other businesses that have not entered for decades." This is also very important. Li Cong thought about the situation of the last contact point, and it is estimated that this is also the case. possible.

"Master, do you suspect that our people did it? But when the people from our investigation department came in to check, they checked the people around them, and they were all fine. Is there something wrong with this?" Where is the place?" Xi Mei asked a little puzzled. He can't say that he is familiar with all the people here, but at least the people in Juncheng are quite familiar.

"Hehe, they probably have the same idea as you. Are people who have been in the business for more than ten years really businessmen? The enemies we face are much more powerful than we imagined. What they do is also more powerful than what we think." Our prediction is much bigger. So you can’t be careless one by one. You must investigate carefully, and you can’t give up on any of them.” Li Cong said with a smile, it’s normal for the people below to have such thoughts of. It seems that my own thoughts are not very normal.

Xi Mei nodded and didn't say anything else. Of course, I don't know as much about these things as the boss. It's better to hurry up and do things. There are more than 30 clubs in Juncheng, and they all have their own sources of news In fact, if you check these things from the government, you probably won't get any news. They are all fed by outsiders, and they won't offend other people, so they speak out Words are dispensable things, you have to inquire about these things with some associations, only then will the associations have some ideas of their own, and they will reveal the real information.

At the same time, 650 miles away from here, the three airships above are full of people. These people are not ordinary people. Super fighters, they were all going to the north to block the frozen forest, but now they are transported here by Li Cong's emergency order, they must kill the Thunder Gate people in this place first, they can't It is Li Cong's plan to cause any crisis in his own industry. He wants them to return the clothes of the local guards, and then take good care of them. As for the result, it is beyond his ability to predict.

On the ground 3,000 meters below them, there are more than a dozen people who have already seen it. These fifteen people are all ninth-level fighters, and two of them are recognized by the source of power. In fact, Li Cong guessed There is nothing wrong, that is, people in these three provinces know about Li Cong's handling of them. Although they have not received any news from the headquarters, they all know how to deal with them. They must deal with Li Cong's people as much as possible. , it’s just that Li Cong’s contraction is a bit too fast, they can’t do anything for a while, they can still do something on their own site, but if they go outside, they won’t have that ability. They noticed the airship coming over, the one in front of them. They followed the airship on the ground for an hour, hundreds of kilometers. If they hadn't had this ability, they probably would have been thrown away long ago.

At the beginning, more than 60 of them followed, but as the speed of the airship accelerated, there were only a dozen of them left at the end, and the rest couldn't keep up. This was difficult for them, the airship They all walk in a straight line, and they will not change their course because of something on the ground. The people following on the ground are different. These guys cannot be the same as the people above. At this moment, they also There is no need to follow, because they have already reached the best place to do it. There is a mountain peak. When the airship wants to fly over here, it is only less than 200 meters away from the ground. This is very simple for them They can easily get on the airship. Although the people on the airship are very powerful, compared with them, they are just a group of people who were killed. It's useless for them, but it's not that simple for Cao's house. If they die, Cao's house will definitely be more passive.

"Hmph, the airship of Cao's House will definitely pass by the place we just mentioned. You guys go to the next mountain peak. We are right here. If we don't succeed, you can also make preparations. We will definitely not You can tell them to just pass by. If these people come to the county, it will be even more difficult for us to do things. Or what I said, we can’t control other places, but on our territory, we can’t do things. I want all the people in Cao's House to disappear." A man who is not very tall said, of course, this man's figure is still acceptable among ordinary people. But if it's really nothing among such a group of big guys.

"Brother Dong. Just don't worry, your prediction this time is really good. The third son also said when he came out of the county town, that Cao Ke guy. He mobilized everyone in the city Get up. They just want to find us. We are really on the right track when we come out. If his people surround us, we may have to be the same as the contact point over there. That is definitely The people over there have revealed themselves, except for the people from Cao’s House, no one has discovered us, and it must be no problem to settle the account on their heads.” Another big man said, this guy is the same as this guy named Dong Ge Among the dozen or so people, the only two guys recognized by the source of strength are also the bosses of the two teams, but it seems that Brother Dong is much more powerful than this guy.

They are all the people in the two contact points in several nearby provinces. In fact, Thunder Gate is just an experiment for the contact points outside, so not many people came out, and there are only three contact points in total. That's all, one of them was killed by Li Cong, and the other two were also united. After that guy revealed himself, they also guessed something with their own brains. If they don't unite, they will eventually Same as that guy.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, Xiaoxi, take your people over there quickly, we will kill two ships at most, and the one that is exposed is yours, you must make this guy feel bad for a while, sir Once we get rid of these people, we can get rid of all the people from Cao’s House in these provinces, and he will definitely stop the search of the headquarters.” Brother Dong has no time to talk nonsense with this guy, now What he wants to do is to quickly kill the person on the airship, which is what he wants to do most.

"Okay, I'll go right away." This guy also agreed and passed. The people on the airship over there didn't even think that they could be in danger in the air? It has been a long time since the airship began to operate, but there has never been a problem in the air, so they all think that they are safe now. Indeed, at an altitude of several thousand meters They are really very safe, but it is different in some places with difficult terrain, such as the place where they are going to pass later, it is completely different, that is where they are most vulnerable to attack, just The news of this era is not very common. Naturally, they will not study the surrounding terrain, and it is normal to be attacked.

In Juncheng, Li Cong had been waiting for four hours. Both Ximei and Balori rushed to the yard where Li Cong lived. Just now, Li Cong was feeding his plant life to eat money. The little guy has already started to rest after eating 30 million silver. Li Cong must have something to do when he saw the two of them leaving in such a hurry.

"How is it, what's the news?" Li Cong said, Li Cong was really a little anxious at the moment, mainly because he had never encountered an enemy like Thunderbolt before, and now he was really worried. I'm a little flustered, my weakest point is not myself, but my own industries, I want to control this place step by step, these are my tentacles, just like the roots of a tree, with a little less possibility It won't do me any harm, but if the enemy knows this weakness and destroys these things all the time, it will be a big deal after a long time, so it is better to end such things quickly, Otherwise, I may end up falling on this.

Balori glanced at Ximei, although he said that he had inquired about the news, but Ximei is the highest leader of this place, so he took a step back and asked Ximei to stand up and say that Li Cong noticed it carefully This detail is very good. The people under me did not want to take credit for the incident. This is very rare for a large organization. You must know that if people like Balori do not have this incident, they may It is impossible to see Li Cong in a lifetime, he can be so calm. This requires a good psychological quality, and this guy has left a good impression on Li Cong's heart.

"Master, this matter was obtained by the people under Balori. They found a ready-made clothing store in the city, just like the master said. This place has been in business for 20 years, and basically it has never closed. , No one has been added in twenty years, and their business is very standard. But it has been closed since a few days ago. We asked the people around us, and they didn't leave any information to the people around us. They left without a message. Our people went in to check it out, and it was very chaotic inside. They left in a hurry. There were things they destroyed everywhere. According to some associations in the city, they received the message, They left the city a few days ago. On the day they left the city, something happened to our granary, and they should be the biggest suspect." Xi Mei didn't take credit for this guy, but it's too late to elaborate at this time After these things, how to report the situation is the most important thing. At this time, Li Cong's judgment cannot be affected.

"Sure enough, they have already left here. It is not so easy for us to find them. Does anyone have any news about them, and in which direction are they going?" Li Cong felt a little bit in his heart, no How comfortable.

Both of them shook their heads. It was obvious that neither of them knew about this matter. Li Cong also knew about it in his heart. These people are ordinary people, and they would not know the news, but he was still a little bit unwilling to give up. , If there is a little bit, it would be more comfortable, no, the news is interrupted like that, all you can do now is to wait, see where they make a move, and then quickly pass by, this way of doing things is very inappropriate for Li Cong I like it, this is to make myself very passive, I don’t know when I want to catch them if I go on like this, these guys will definitely not leave anything behind, just like the food this time, and if they It's not easy for me to go too far, but what if it's worse? If they have their own contact points in various places, what they have to do now is not to do right with themselves, but to quickly notify the contact points in various places. In that case, the Cao's firm established by Li Cong may face destruction , although some important assets can be carried with you, it is not a matter of a day or two to establish such a sales network, and this is the most distressing thing.

"Master, you don't need to worry too much. Our support team is coming, and they may arrive in more than an hour. When they arrive, our counterattack force will be dozens of times stronger than it is now. As for the above, it will be no problem to find them." Seeing that Li Cong was a little disappointed and kept silent, Balori said, and he didn't want Li Cong to be unhappy.

What? Our people? Li Cong suddenly thought of something. If this matter is on his own body, he has two choices. If there is his own contact point around, then he must quickly notify the news to everyone regardless of his own life. But if there is no contact point, they will start with their biggest asset. Now, their most important asset is these people who come here. There are thousands of people on three airships. Kouzi people, although there are no ninth-level fighters, but all of them are seventh-level fighters and eighth-level fighters. If they lose, I really can't afford it. Thinking of this, Li Cong couldn't sit still. By the way, these guys must be That's what he did, Li never cared about the two people in the room and rushed out.

After going out, a tenth-level monster flying in the sky rushed down immediately, and Li Cong jumped on it immediately. It would be useless to take other people there now, it would be better for Li Cong to go with this tenth-level monster Well, although there is a tenth-level monster on land, the running speed of that guy is far worse than this one. Fortunately, there are two nine-level flying monsters around. Seeing Li Cong flying towards the distance, they Li Cong also hurriedly followed. Li Cong knew that what he did at this moment might be reckless, and he might not be able to save them and he had to get involved, but anyway, those were his most important assets, and he couldn't see them. Watching those guys die like that, I can't do it myself.

The flying speed of the tenth-level monster is quite fast. After ten minutes, Li Cong can see the appearance of the airship in the distance. From Li Cong's position, he can see clearly that the airship is slowly entering the top of the mountain. It's over, it really is this place, Li Cong has already seen someone on the mountain, damn it, they can't succeed anyway.

"Fly up, go up immediately..." Li Congzhong yelled angrily. The people driving the airship in the distance saw the flying monster first, and then they heard such a voice, and each of them couldn't figure out their own minds. , Why do they have to rise here? They are still some distance away from the best attack point of those guys at this moment. If they rise quickly at this time, they can completely avoid it, but only two airships according to Li Made from request.

Pilots also have their own considerations. Flying monsters usually belong to their own people. The one who shouted to them at such a high altitude must be their own people. Flying at low altitudes is the same as flying at high altitudes. They were at low altitude, so they all chose to ascend one by one. As for the airship that did not ascend, this guy is considered unlucky now, and they have nothing to do, because more than a dozen guys have already jumped in front of their eyes .

"Ah..." An airship pilot yelled and fell, and an unknown guy next to him was throwing other pilots down. These pilots are ordinary people, they can't be these For the guy's opponent, if the seventh-level fighters go down from this height, there may still be a glimmer of life, but these ordinary people can only wait for themselves to be smashed to pieces.

Bastard, these guys really did that. Li Cong waved his hands to let the two airships move forward quickly. He had to increase his altitude and speed up, so that they would be less likely to be attacked. That is, from now on, the airship There are strict regulations on the height and speed of the airship, and some terrain surveys on both sides of the airship route have also begun. Some necessary places have to increase their altitude. This is also the first time Li Cong's airship has encountered here. It's the same as the last attack, but it's also very distressing.

The tenth-level monster rushed over with Li Cong quickly, and the people who were killing above were a little dumbfounded. How could there be a tenth-level monster here? They thought it would be very easy to kill the seventh-level fighter in this airship Things, I didn't expect...(to be continued...)
