Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer? - Chapter 482: Sea Lord and Long!
Fang Mu lightly drummed his fingers on the desk.
According to She Wan, the Gao Family and Zhao Family have a significant relationship with the Sea Clan.
She Wan’s information came from She Junjie, who has no reason to deceive her at this time.
If the Gao Family and Zhao Family are related to the Sea Clan, it should be easier for them to know some of the Sea Clan’s secrets compared to other forces.
According to the line chart, Fang Mu noticed that the time and financial gains from the fishing activities of all the forces for the past two months have been directly proportional.
However, due to the varying capabilities of each force, the proportion of their fishing haul varied.
Yet, in the last month, the fishing time of the Zhao Family and Gao Family’s fleets had more than doubled compared to two months ago.
But their harvest was much less than that of the previous two months.
This could be because with the approaching ‘Fish Feast,’ all prominent forces had increased their time spent in marine hunting.
As a result, other forces achieved increased profits the more they ventured into the sea.
But this single observation made it clear that the vessels of the Gao Family and Zhao Family didn’t venture into the sea for fishing, they had another objective.
They were likely searching for something.
Fang Mu had no knowledge of the forces behind Shui Miao, all he knew is that Shui Miao was a formal member of the Starwheel.
Moreover, Shui Miao was the one who recommended Fang Mu to join the Starwheel.
Given that Shui Miao personally provided the information at such a critical juncture, Fang Mu believed it was at least 90% credible.
So Fang Mu suspected that for nearly twenty days, the Zhao Family and Gao Family’s random explorations in the sea have been to capture the descendant of a key figure in the Han Yang Empire.
As Fang Mu deliberated, Lu Zhong intoned soberly,
“There are a lot of inconsistencies upon examining this statistical graph.”
“We should consider objective factors for the minor inconsistencies, such as dangers encountered at sea.”
“Or maybe, they discovered a certain valuable school of fish during fishing, chose to pursue and catch them.”
“These minor inconsistencies may cause a day’s data to fluctuate, at most for three to five days.”
“But in the line charts of the Gao Family and Zhao Family, the chaotic period astonishingly lasts for as many as seventeen days!”
“There must be something fishy about the recent fishing activities of Zhao Family and Gao Family!”
“I think we should fix our gaze on the Zhao Family and Gao Family.”
After She Wan noticed this, she was convinced that there must be a problem with the Zhao Family and Gao Family.
Given the sudden tempest, the only clues could be found were closely linked to the two powers.
Obviously, this could not be explained away by coincidence.
The problems that Fang Mu was now pondering were not about the motives of the Zhao Family and the Gao Family, but about how to resolve the conflict between the Sea Clan and Lu City.
Since the key point was the child of an important person in the Han Yang Empire, Fang Mu needed to verify whether that child was amid the Zhao Family and Gao Family.
If they were, he wondered how to safely find the child of the key person from the Han Yang Empire within the Zhao Family or Gao Family’s territory.
First of all, Fang Mu couldn’t afford to startle the snake in the grass.
In case the child of the key person from the Han Yang Empire was indeed in the hands of the Zhao Family and Gao Family, the two forces could take measures to ensure Fang Mu had no chance to slip away.
Secondly, even as a disciple of Grandmaster Creator, Fang Mu had no right to search the two largest families in Lu City.
Fang Mu thought about handing this issue to the Lu City officials and letting them investigate.
But the Zhao Family and Gao Family had been rooted in Lu City for hundreds of years, and they could easily get the news from their informants inside the city officials.
This was as good as startling the snake in the grass.
Fishing actively was inferior to waiting for fish to bite the bait.
Fang Mu thought, if only the Zhao Family and Gao Family would take the initiative to contact him now!
At this moment, a giant shark with a vivid hue was lurking under the surging seas near Lu City.
This enormous shark had a pair of double chignons on its head, and its body displayed a dazzling range of colors.
Once the gaze fell on the patterns of the giant shark, a plethora of hallucinations would immediately appear.
One would fall into the illusion quickly if they were not determined, becoming as if in a stupor.
This double-chignon shark was frantically swinging its crescent-shaped tail, which was about a hundred meters tall, but it didn’t move forward at all.
Standing in front of this double-chignon shark were two petite clam shells, one blue and one purple.
From these two petite clam shells spilled out the fantastical light of the ocean waves, illuminating the deep sea.
The shark raised its double chignon and said in a deep voice,
“This sea area is my territory, granted to me by the Sea Lord himself.”
“Your Han Yang Empire has brazenly invaded my territory and offended Lu City, which will undoubtedly affect my area!”
“I will report to the Lord of the Sea, and your Han Yang Empire must give me an explanation!”
The shark spoke sternly, but it was actually feeling weak already, merely putting up a front.
Let alone whether the Sea Lord would help it.
Even if he did, the empires in the deep sea had already stopped taking Lord of the Sea seriously.
The Lord of the Sea was now more like the leader of the spare sea beasts.
As soon as the shark’s words came out, the two clam shells, one purple and one blue, were pushed open by a huge force from inside.
A pair of sea sprites born from the clamshells appeared in front of the shark.
“Hua Ji, Master Long’s only direct descendant had an accident in your territory, yet we from the Han Yang Empire haven’t blamed you.”
“What gives you the right to talk like that!?”
“Now we give you an opportunity to make up for your mistakes, immediately deploy all your minions.”
“Find Master Long’s descendant!”
“You’re well aware of Master Long’s temper. If anything happens to Master Long’s descendant, you and we will be implicated!”
