Chapter 364: The Battle of Karlan

After leaving the Trump Casino, Lei Luo gave the gambling card to Katz.

Katz did not say much about Lei Luo’s favor.

He only said one sentence.

“Although I have failed so many years, one day, I will prove that I am not a useless person.”

Because his mind was immersed in the gamble just now, Lei Luo didn’t have time to think about the hidden meaning behind Katz’s words.

After Lei Luo returned to Utopia Manor, he crossed his legs.

With his hands on his knees, his body straightened and his eyes closed, and he gradually withdrew his scattered attention.

Lei Luo had learned this method from watching Mellie do it when he was young.

After sitting like this for about three minutes, Lei Luo’s mind calmed down slightly.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw Habacca standing in front of him.

Habacca looked at Lei Luo with eyes filled with relief, joy, and a little reluctance.

“Teacher...”

Lei Luo stood up and held Habacca’s hand.

He was about to say something, but he was stopped by Habacca.

“Let’s go, Teacher is waiting for you.”

Lei Luo sighed helplessly and followed behind Habacca.

The white flower on the tree in front of Mellie’s door bloomed again.

A gentle breeze blew, sending a faint, indescribable fragrance.

It made people feel as if they were in a state of silence in the void, as if everything in the past had been forgotten.

At this moment, Mellie was sitting cross-legged on the ground.

She was leaning against an ancient tree with her eyes closed, quietly smelling the fragrance of the flowers.

“Coming.”

When she sensed that Lei Luo was coming, Meryl opened her eyes.

“Okay.”

Lei Luo quietly came to Mellie’s side and sat down.

“You should know why I called you here, right?”

Mellie smelled it.

“Yes, but I don’t think I’m strong enough... I think...”

“If you want to fly into the sky without a pair of wings, it’s just a waste of effort. But if you still want to stay in the nest with a pair of good wings, you’ll degenerate into a poultry.”

As Mellie said this, she looked at Lei Luo.

“Although it’s only been four years, I’ve basically taught you everything that Habacca and I can teach you. The current you, sunshine, is cunning when necessary...kind, but insidious when necessary...normal, but shameless when necessary. Of course, you still have many flaws and imperfections, but this is no longer something that can be improved through teaching. You must go into the vast world and improve yourself.”

Mellie pointed at a crystal ball that did not exist in the room.

This crystal ball was a spell.

It simulated the environment of the “Battle of Karlan.”

The Battle of Karlan was one of the most important battles in Emperor Victor’s life.

It was through this battle that Emperor Victor unified the seventh interstellar administrative region.

It was now the 72nd to 83rd interstellar administrative region.

At that time, there were a total of four forces in this region: Pirate King Selklev, Black Sea Mercenary Association, Manlan United Trust, and Emperor Victor.

“This is the simulation magic of the Battle of Karlan. In the past history, the entire battle took a total of three years from preparation to completion. You can enter the body of Emperor Lucifer through this crystal ball. You can freely adjust the simulation environment and progress, but you only have two weeks to complete it.”

Mellie stood up as she spoke.

“During this time, you stay in the room. I will get someone to bring you food and water.”

Lei Luo did not say anything because he knew that it was useless to say anything.

After Mellie left the room, Lei Luo immediately dived into the simulation environment that Mellie had set for him.

He began to fully understand all the data and information, such as military data and economic data, as well as the potential data of each city.

The surrounding environment of the forces, the personality of the main commanders, and so on.

This time, Lei Luo didn’t dare to be negligent, nor did he dare to be anxious.

He only activated this magic crystal after understanding it for a whole week.

This magic would completely restore the war from more than a thousand years ago.

There were many details, but in general, there were four main forces in this area: The Pirate King, Selklev, the Black Sea Mercenary Association, Manlan United Trust, and Emperor Victor.

Of the four forces, Selklev’s military strength was the strongest.

According to calculations, he accounted for about 45% of the total military strength.

What made him fearful was his personal guards, with his 8,000 heavy armored cavalry as the core.

Besides Selklev, the strongest military strength was Emperor Victor.

His military strength accounted for about 25%.

Next was Manlan United Trust, which was about 20%.

The worst was the Black Sea Mercenary Association, which was about 10%.

After the magic of the Crystal Ball was activated, the time was fixed at a thousand years ago. According to the rules, he had to complete the entire battle within three years.

In just three short years, the strength of the major forces would not have any fundamental changes during this period.

And with the current military strength of Emperor Victor, it was impossible to unify the world by force.

Lei Luo was very clear about this.

So he spent a lot of time studying the internal environment of his opponent.

Selklev was the strongest, so he was definitely the first target to be killed.

The Black Sea mercenary group was the weakest, so they could be annexed.

But even if they succeeded in annexing it, their strength still couldn’t surpass Selklev’s.

Moreover, they also needed time to digest it.

After digesting it, they still needed to destroy the strength of the other two. These three years were absolutely not enough.

Therefore, the Black Sea mercenary group must be used to form an alliance.

Lei Luo found an important point regarding the Manlan United Trust.

It was controlled by the council of elders.

To put it bluntly, it was actually a noble system, but it was also a business alliance with economic interests as the primary goal.

After thinking through these three things, Lei Luo began to make all kinds of preparations, such as the deployment of the army, assigning the troops on the front line, and the allocation of grains.

Even diplomatic envoys and various secret emissaries were sent out continuously.

After the preparations were completed, Lei Luo began to make his move.

He first sold some armaments, war horses, and various commodities at a low price at the Star Trade Center.

He raised a huge sum of money, totaling up to 200 million gold coins,

This sum was almost twice the income of all the cities under Emperor Victor during his time.
