Chapter 483 - Treating Everyone Equally
Chapter 483: Treating Everyone Equally
“If that’s the case, it sounds like we are all on the right track. If so, then why did all of you look so solemn when I came in just now?”
Hearing what Lei Luo said, Katz and Kronin looked at each other.
Then, Kronin pursed his lips and looked away. Katz glanced at Lei Luo and wanted to speak, but it seemed like he didn’t know what to say.
At this time, Morton spoke.
“There are two main issues. One is whether the magic conductor also wears the leader’s badge. On this issue, we have some internal disputes.”
“Wearing the leader’s badge?”
Lei Luo turned his face and looked at Katz and Kronin. He immediately understood that what Morton said about “internal disputes” was actually a dispute between Kronin and Katz.
This matter had somewhat stopped Lei Luo. He could understand why Kronin was against this matter, and he also knew what Katz’s intention was.
Both of them had their own reasons, but how should he decide?
Just as Lei Luo was pondering over this matter, Kronin finally spoke.
“I’m not saying that I don’t agree with director Katz’s words. It is the Black Angel Army’s unshakable purpose to completely unify the entire Black Angel Army under the General Commander. But we magic conductors have our own self-esteem. Idolatry is a very important thing for us magic conductors. These magic conductors have just been rescued from a humanitarian crisis by us. They were originally very grateful to us, and it was the time when their morale could be used. Now, we suddenly force them to wear the badge of a person they are not familiar with at all. I feel that this may create a conflict, and the loss outweighs the gain.”
Kronin had just finished speaking when Katz immediately retorted, “A magic conductor and a native are treated equally. Don’t just talk about it. It should be put it into practice. Isn’t this what you’ve been emphasizing to me for so many days?”
“All right, now that I’ve truly treated them equally, why are you saying that I’m creating a conflict again?”
As Katz spoke, Lei Luo kept looking at Tolle from the corner of his eyes.
Lei Luo saw that when Katz said “magic conductors and natives are equal,” the light in Tolle’s eyes suddenly became much brighter.
The corners of Lei Luo’s mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled faintly.
“All right, stop arguing.”
Lei Luo raised his hand, stopping Kronin and Katz from arguing.
“I already have an idea.”
Kronin and Katz both looked at Leei Luo.
“To be honest, I also feel quite disgusted about the leader’s badge, but I have to admit that Katz did the right thing. As for the reason, our financial supervisor was very clear just now. However, Kronin’s words were also very reasonable. Although we treat magic conductors equally, treating them equally is not as simple as that. We still have to respect the cultures of the two different races.”
Until now, Lei Luo’s words were very much like that of the mediators of the Civil Affairs Center.
Every sentence made sense, but it felt like something was missing. Everyone present was confused.
Whose side are you on?
The people were starting to wonder.
“My decision is this. On the pirates’ side, the leader’s badge is still on. The magic conductor doesn’t have to die for now. Wait until I lead them into battle. After using their strength to establish their faith in me, it won’t be too late for them to wear it willingly. At that time, the matter of the magic conductor wearing the leader’s badge due to his sincere worship will be a very good topic for those pirates who are used to being arrogant even though they are wearing the leader badge.”
After Lei Luo finished speaking, Kronin nodded almost immediately. “I completely agree with the chief’s words.”
Katz thought for a moment and nodded. “All right, it seems that this is the only way for now.”
Seeing that the first problem had been solved, Lei Luo turned his head and looked at Morton.
“What’s the second problem?”
Morton immediately answered, “The Twilight Alliance has created many magic traps around the Satan’s Wings, preventing people from entering many areas. This makes it very risky for us to carry out long-distance space jumps.”
“There’s no reason for the twilight of the Apocalypse Alliance to completely cut off their own path, right? They and their allies in the wings of Satan have to go in and out of Satan’s Wings at some point,” Lei Luo replied.
“Yes, the empire is so big that it’s impossible for them not to find a safe route. However, because they only created a large number of magic traps three months ago. The explorers hadn’t had the time to draw the map yet. Currently, there were only three routes that were known to ensure safety. These three routes are either controlled by the Lords of the Twilight Union or their accomplices.”
Hearing Morton’s words, Lei Luo was slightly stunned. Then, he turned his head and smiled at Tolle.
“Is that so?” Lei Luo smiled and thought for a while. Then, he turned his head and looked at Morton. “They are just blocking the boat. I don’t think they will stop people from coming in and out, right?”
“Yes.” Morton nodded.
“We haven’t made much noise yet. Doomsday Dusk hasn’t been watching us closely. If it’s just people coming in and out, it shouldn’t be a big problem.”
“Okay.” Lei Luo patted his leg gently.
“Prepare for a week. After a week, all of us will board the refugee ship and leave Satan’s Wings.”
The refugee ship was a very special kind of ship. Its speed was much slower than the passenger ship, and the environment on the ship was also much worse than the passenger ship. However, its carrying capacity was far from what the passenger ship could compare to.
A large refugee ship carrying six to seven million refugees was a very easy thing.
Hearing what Lei Luo said, Tolle immediately realized what Lei Luo wanted to do.
“What do you want to do?”
Lei Luo knew that Tolle was asking the obvious question, but he still answered, “What else can we do? Since we can’t bring it in, we can only fight our way in…”
Hearing this, Katz’s eyebrows immediately jumped. “Chief…”
“There’s no need to say anything else. I’ve already decided on this matter.”
As Lei Luo said this, he stood up.
“All right, both problems have been solved. After so many days of traveling, I’m tired too. I want to rest. If there’s anything else, we’ll talk about it during dinner.”
After saying this, Lei Luo said to Morton, “You stay behind and get in touch with our financial supervisor. He promised to immediately pay us 300 million once. Think of a way to get him to write a letter quickly and get chief Trump to deliver the 300 million to the designated place.”
Finally, when Lei Luo turned to leave the meeting room, he gave Katz a look.
Before long, Lei Luo and Katz walked out of the meeting room.
