Crossing the World of Warcraft: I am an Ancient God
Chapter 562 Lei Te's Pursuit
Looking at the pupa, its color became whiter and whiter, but its transparency was decreasing, as if it was covered by a layer of mysterious white mist, making it difficult to see what changes were happening inside. Yun couldn't help but feel worried, frowning slightly, staring at the elusive pupa in front of him. Despite this, he still had a little comfort in his heart - after all, this energy was star energy, and so far, he had not heard of any rumors that star energy would bring any adverse side effects. Thinking of this, Yun relaxed a little and decided to wait patiently for the final result to be revealed.
At this time, the situation outside had already fallen into chaos. After obtaining Yun's permission, Fritz led Aaron to the Reid Empire first. This old empire with a long history is now controlled by Lei Te on the surface. However, when Lei Te chose to give up resistance, many people originally wanted to fight hard and struggle to the death. However, after the battle of Shadowfang Keep, the place where the relevant news spread the fastest and most widely was Reid. The details of the thrilling battle had already spread throughout the streets and alleys, and people knew the huge gap between their own strength and the enemy. At this moment, the Reid Empire had no morale at all, and no matter what the outcome was, they seemed to be able to accept it calmly. Therefore, when Fritz stepped into this land, the entire empire was surprisingly silent, like a dead city in deep sleep, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it was suffocating.
"Rhett...you guys!" Looking at Rhett's careless look, Fritz couldn't help but feel helpless and speechless. He had originally planned to inspire everyone by showing his majesty so that everyone would be full of energy to devote themselves to the next task. However, the opposite happened. At this moment, everyone present had a lifeless face, as if they had lost interest in everything.
In this magnificent palace of the Reid Empire, the atmosphere seemed extremely dull and depressing. Leiter sat leisurely on a chair beside him, holding a thick book "History of the Continent" in his hand, his eyes wandering between the pages, and he seemed to be just killing time. As for the throne that symbolized supreme power, it stood empty in the center of the palace, like a forgotten monument.
When Fritz asked Rhett a question, Rhett didn't even bother to raise his head, and just snorted softly from his nose: "Hmm." Such a short and perfunctory answer made Fritz feel like a clown. But no matter how dissatisfied he was, he didn't dare to get angry easily, after all, Rhett's status was there.
"What...are your plans?" Fritz asked helplessly, with a hint of anxiety and confusion in his voice.
Rhett slowly put down the thick book in his hand, raised his head, looked at Fritz calmly, and replied casually: "I don't have any special plans, just waiting to see how you deal with it." After that, he turned his gaze back to the book as if nothing had happened.
Fritz frowned slightly and continued, "From what I understand, there are basically no major problems on your side. However, this incident has had little impact on you, but it has caused great harm to Sindialai. As for what the final consequences will be for you, I'm afraid it will all have to be decided by Sindialai herself."
Hearing this, Aaron, who had been standing silently, became more gloomy. He had originally planned to use Leiter as a scapegoat to let him know how powerful he and his men were. He was expecting Leiter to fight back, so that they could suppress him with a thunderous force, thus showing the outside world that even without Yun's assistance, their fighting power was still extremely strong and terrifying. However, when Fritz found out Leiter's passive attitude, no matter how Aaron persuaded him, Fritz was determined not to let him kill Leiter.
After all, at this critical moment, Leiter can play a very good role model. Although it is impossible to completely let bygones be bygones, as long as he surrenders sincerely and expresses repentance, then there is at least a glimmer of hope and the possibility of survival. In this way, it will be very convenient and smooth for him to gather other forces in the future. Therefore, Aaron had to put aside the idea of revenge for Sindialai for the time being.
However, Fritz also had a clear idea. He was well aware of the interests involved. On the one hand, it would be much easier to deal with the follow-up matters in this way; on the other hand, if he offended the two most powerful fighters in his own forces, Aaron and Sindialai, because of this matter, it would be a loss! So no matter from which angle, Fritz could weigh the pros and cons clearly.
"Forget it, forget it. I have no objection to whatever you arrange. It's fine either way. If you want to take my life right now, I will never resist at all." After saying these words, Rhett slowly closed his eyes, as if he had already put life and death aside.
"As long as you cooperate with us obediently, death is not an inevitable outcome." Fritz said expressionlessly, his tone cold but unquestionable.
At this moment, Leiter shouted, "Lailit!" As the voice fell, a figure slowly walked out from behind Leiter. This person was tall, with a stern face, and exuded a kind of aura of majesty without anger. Behind him followed four attendants, each of whom carefully held a thick stack of documents in his hands.
"Lord Rhett." Lailite walked up to Rhett, bowed to him respectfully, and nodded slightly to show her respect.
Rhett nodded slightly, then introduced in a calm tone: "This is Lailite, the Minister of the Interior of the Reid Empire. This time, he has brought all the vital things of the empire. Here are not only the command seals of various legions, but also the seals of the empire's direct trade unions; in addition, the financial situation of the empire, detailed information on officials at all levels, and background information of major families are all available. With these, you will be able to quickly take control of the entire Reid Empire. Of course, Lailite will also do his best to assist you in completing this task." After saying this, Rhett's eyes swept lightly over the people present, and finally stopped on Fritz.
At this moment, Lailite nodded gracefully to Fritz in greeting.
Without raising his head, Rhett said softly, "Even if I'm not here, I will fully cooperate with your actions. Please don't worry about me." As soon as he finished speaking, Rhett picked up the book again as if nothing had happened and began to read it attentively, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
Seeing this scene, Fritz suddenly felt helpless and speechless. He really couldn't understand why Leiter was so determined and wanted to die. Thinking back to when he saw Leiter a while ago, he thought that he had just suffered a major blow temporarily, and after a period of self-adjustment, or under the patient persuasion of people around him, he should slowly get better. However, the facts were completely beyond his expectations. Leiter had fallen into such a thorough state of decadence, which made Fritz feel deeply regretful. After all, he was the leader of the ten stars on the continent, and he had been the ceiling of human combat power in the past five years. It would be a waste for him to continue to be decadent.
"Lord Fritz, if you want to implement any plan or take any action, I will cooperate without hesitation. At the same time, I kindly ask you not to disturb Lord Rhett again." Lailite said earnestly.
Faced with Lalit's firm attitude, Fritz felt increasingly confused and couldn't help asking, "He has become like this now, don't you want to try to persuade him?"
"Lailit sighed slightly and said slowly: "I have already advised him. After all, I have watched Lord Rhett grow up little by little since he was a child! In fact, I know many things very clearly in my heart. Lord Rhett has been a particularly obedient and well-behaved child since he was young. He has always been an outstanding and excellent child in his father's eyes. So many years have passed, and he has always worked hard and never slacked off. However, it is regrettable that no matter how hard he tries, in the face of talent and rare opportunities, all efforts seem so pale and helpless! It is because of this that I can deeply understand Lord Rhett's feelings at this moment. Now he looks so relaxed and leisurely. To be honest, I have never seen him before. But this is exactly the scene I am most looking forward to seeing with my own eyes!" At this point, Lailit couldn't help but reveal a relieved smile on his face.
Fritz standing aside obviously did not intend to give up. He still held on tightly and asked, "Don't you really have any dreams of your own anymore?"
Hearing this, Lei Te raised his head slightly, his eyes calm as water, and answered in an extremely gentle voice: "Dream? If quietly enjoying a moment of peace and quiet can be considered a dream, then perhaps this can be considered my only dream."
As soon as he finished speaking, Aaron next to him couldn't help but sneer: "Humph, I didn't expect you to be such a cowardly person!"
Facing Aaron's merciless ridicule and sarcasm, Rhett was unusually calm and composed. He didn't even bother to raise his head. He just responded lightly: "Yes, that's who I am."
"Don't you want to defeat me fairly, or even defeat the arrogant Sindialai?" Aaron stared at Rhett with burning eyes and continued to ask.
Lei Te looked calm and shook his head slowly: "I don't want to."
Fritz, who was standing by, couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw this. He really couldn't think of any other way to make Rhett change his mind. Rhett in front of him seemed to have completely lost his fighting spirit and desire to win, which made Fritz feel extremely frustrated. It would be a pity to kill Rhett like this.
Aaron didn't seem to give up. He adjusted his tone slightly, making it sound gentler than before: "Then, don't you want to experience for yourself how terrifying the real powerful force is?"
Lei Te was silent for a moment, and this time his answer was obviously much slower than before: "...I don't want to."
However, Aaron did not stop talking at this moment, but continued to speak while the iron was hot: "Although we may not be able to truly possess that kind of powerful force that can destroy the world, we should at least understand what it looks like. Only in this way can our lives not be lived in vain!"
After hearing this, Leiter finally stopped talking. He stood there quietly, his eyes a little confused. It was obvious that Aaron's words deeply touched something in his heart.
"Brooks, you have seen truly powerful strength, right?" Aaron turned and asked Brooks.
"Sort of," Brooks said.
Although Rhett didn't move, Aaron could feel that his attention had shifted from the book to Brooks.
"Is there a big gap between us and the truly strong ones?" Aaron asked.
"This..." Brooks hesitated, which aroused Rhett's curiosity even more.
"What's wrong? It's hard to say?" Aaron's curiosity was also aroused. He had seen some powerful beings, but he knew that there must be more powerful ones, so he asked Brooks.
"The most powerful being I know of is Sargeras." Brox fell into recollection.
Everyone was waiting for Brooks to continue.
"Sargeras was a member of the Titans before, but I don't know what happened later he became a little extreme. I had the honor of fighting him once. He was so powerful that it made people despair. Only Yun could stand in front of Sargeras. As for victory? Haha, what if you don't even have the chance to meet Sargeras?" said Brox.
"No chance of seeing him?" Aaron was a little surprised. Is this Sargeras really that powerful?
"See? Sargeras' opponent is an Old God, and a complete Old God at that. That kind of Old God can be as big as an entire planet. Similarly, their strength is beyond your imagination." Brox said disdainfully.
At this time, Aaron remembered the video that Yun had shown him, which was a video of Sargeras swinging his sword and directly chopping a planet to pieces. The shocking scene made Aaron unforgettable for a long time. When he heard that Brox had actually fought with Sargeras, Aaron knew why Yun valued him so much.
"Then..." Rhett suddenly interrupted and then stopped immediately.
Fritz's heart, which had been hanging in the air, was suddenly relieved. Since Rhett was still pursuing the matter, everything would be easy to handle. As long as Rhett was captured, things would be much easier afterwards. As for what Sindialai's attitude would be in the end, it didn't matter anymore.
