Chapter 234 Selecting the Target
"It's okay , Graves, I usually have the help of the goddess of luck, so it's okay!"
Trist, or Tobias, looked at Li Ke who was gradually approaching, and spoke directly to Graves beside him, but it would be better if his legs didn't tremble.
When he saw Li Ke, he had a mysterious feeling.
The 'good luck' that had been helping me all along disappeared.
Moreover, that feeling of being watched, that great existence that was helping him in the dark, seemed to have completely lost interest in him and shifted all its interest to the other person.
This feeling made him quite scared, because the feeling of being enveloped by 'good luck' had been surrounding him ever since he started chasing adventures, and he had never left this feeling.
But as soon as Li Ke showed up and stood on the opposite side of him (so he thought), he felt that his good luck was gone.
He didn't know where his good luck came from. He always felt that it must be a goddess of luck or something like that who was watching over him, so he had such good luck.
But……
But why could the person in front of him easily break his good luck?
He tried to draw the trump card from his cards to escape, but unfortunately, he drew the 6 of spades, which was not the trump card he wanted.
"Forget it. I'm not interested in what you think of me. I came to you just because I want to have an adventure with you ."
Li Ke waved his hand. If these two guys were stripped of their heroic halo, they would just be two street thugs and bandits. If they were in Ionia, he would have taken action to eliminate the harm to the people long ago.
Too bad this isn't Ionia.
"I plan to have an adventure here. I can provide the funds and tools, and you can decide the goal. I have only one request."
Li Ke's face turned serious.
"No innocent people should be harmed, or the interests of ordinary people should be harmed."
Li Ke's words made the trembling Trist and Graves on the side look at each other in bewilderment. They didn't understand what Li Ke was up to, as he spent money, supplies, and time to get them out.
They are very familiar with using their words, but what about setting such a goal for themselves?
"A sucker?"
"Fool?"
The two looked at each other at the same time, and then rejected the answer at the same time.
The other party doesn't look like a fool at all. He must have other gains or purposes in mind for making such a choice.
"Well, can we refuse?"
Drizzt smiled and asked tentatively.
Li Ke smiled.
"I just heard someone scolding me."
"Understood!" X2
…
"So, our target is this mole gang."
It took Trist a day to develop a plan. After he determined the goal, he stood in Li Ke's house, pointed at a small blackboard with his pointer, and then smiled brightly.
"The Gophers are a gang responsible for smuggling in Piltover and Zaun. They often use some illegal means to help the gentlemen in Upper City bring goods. The goods are either human trafficking or some addictive drugs. The high-end ones with less side effects will be sold to Upper City, while those with greater side effects will be sold in Zaun. What we want to steal is the money of the Gophers."
Having said that, he paused and a sly smile appeared on his face.
"Not only that, this Gopher Gang is actually just a white glove gang. I just asked Graves a little bit and found out that they are related to at least three alchemy barons, one of whom is the man named Hilko, and the remaining two are subordinates of Vandel, the current Lord of the Black Alley..."
It was unclear whether the expression on his face was mockery or sarcasm.
"So if we are exposed, we will offend the entire Zaun underground forces, not to mention the officials of Piltover."
He picked up his hat from his desk and looked at their boss.
"So, Boss, what do you think of the target I chose?"
After he came out of prison, it only took him some time to figure out the entire Zaun's sphere of influence and the most famous and profitable gang here.
But he was still very curious whether Li Ke would choose a target based on his choice, or if he was just talking.
After all, when he agreed to take the adventure with Li Ke, the feeling of being favored by "good luck" not only returned, but was inexplicably strengthened.
This made him very concerned.
"That's it ."
Li Ke didn't care about the situation of the Mole Gang. He only cared about what he couldn't do in this place.
After calming down, Li Ke discovered an ambiguity, that is, obtaining a trial of life is not only related to strength, but also about "whether one can complete it".
He felt that there should be no one in Piltover and Zaun whom he could not defeat, so he thought that it must be something that the gods thought they could not do.
So what is it?
Li Ke cared a lot about it, so he agreed to the first adventure goal proposed by Trist.
"Tell me the plan, and then we'll act."
Trist was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Li Ke to agree so readily, as if he was not worried about the power of the Rat Gang at all.
"Well, since you have chosen this target, let me confirm again, are you really planning to attack the Gopher Gang?"
"That's right."
"Okay then, here's the plan. This is a serious matter. Once exposed, we will be hunted down by the underground forces of Piltover and Zaun. So our plan must be thorough, and it has nothing to do with us on the surface."
"oh?"
"I heard that they have a bad relationship with a member of the Ditch Gang recently, and that person named Hilco seems to have a grudge against the Anti-Vander, so I think they definitely don't want someone to take a piece of their pie away from them."
Drizzt's smile became more cunning, and he picked up a playing card, which was an ace.
His good luck reached its peak at this time, and he had a feeling that no matter what he did, he would succeed directly. He also knew clearly that the reason for this feeling was the magical man in front of him who could make his "good luck" disappear.
"If Vander and Hilco come to blows, who do you think the Gophers should support? If Vander chooses to wipe out the Gophers for the sake of his dignity as the Lord of the Alley, should his men just give up their own interests, or..."
Trist told a series of conspiracies and tricks, and Li Ke listened with great interest.
"That's it, then."
