Luo Kai nodded. That's right, with Thirteen's ability, nothing would happen to him.
"Second brother, you said you were rescued by the Dragonshark Pirates?"
"Yes, I followed the first group of recruited pirates back to the mainland. When I just arrived at Dragon Ocean City, I heard of third brother's name. I originally wanted to look for you in these few days, but I didn't expect you to come to me first," Li Gui replied with a smile.
Looking at Li Gui's handsome face, Luo Kai was a little surprised, "How did your appearance change so much?"
Li Gui touched his face and sighed, "I won't hide it from third brother, this is my original appearance. Back then on South Tooth Island, in order to survive, I had no choice but to use a secret method that overdrew my life force, causing my face to become old. I just recovered in these two years."
Hatred flashed in Li Gui's eyes, even his face was unconsciously distorted. Obviously, this method of overdrawing one's life force must have a huge price, it definitely wouldn't be so easy to recover.
Luo Kai changed the topic, "Then this Elemental Coral is real?"
Li Gui was extremely good at controlling his emotions, his expression returned to normal in an instant. He nodded and said, "That's right, the commander of the Dragonshark Pirates once obtained an Elemental Coral fruit in his early years. He possessed a kind of power to control water flow, that's why he could dominate the South Sea. This Elemental Coral is the remnant branch of that fruit!"
"Can there really be people who can control water flow?" Luo Kai was very doubtful.
"Of course, there are some powerful Elementalists who can even move mountains. During the war with the Direbeasts in the early years, several great Elementalists built a fortress overnight. Although Elementalists are rare, they are the top combat power of mankind!"
Luo Kai was somewhat yearning, "Can ordinary people become Elementalists?"
Li Gui explained, "Elementalists are divided into innate and acquired. There's no need to talk about innate, acquired needs some opportunities, for example, eating the Elemental Coral fruit or undergoing genetic mutation, there's a certain probability of awakening some kind of elemental power!
Of course, there are some different races, for example, the Seafolk, it's said that newborns of the Seafolk have a one-third chance of awakening water elemental power. The Great Elementalists of the Seafolk are very terrifying, it's said that they can turn the clouds and rain with a wave of their hand! "
Luo Kai couldn't help but think of Shui Sou. Could the mysterious power that Shui Sou had used to forge his bones be this elemental power?
"It's a pity that there are too few foreign objects that can awaken the power of the elements for ordinary people. Such foreign objects can only be formed under certain coincidences. For example, this elemental coral should be a strange metal in an underground volcano. After the volcano erupted, it gushed out of the sea surface and then became parasitized by some coral polyps. It was exposed to the wind and sun all day long. Because it contains the power of the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, it gradually fused into a strange life form. The young body that splits out, the fruit, has the power to change life."
The evolutionary potential of life was truly terrifying. Luo Kai couldn't help but inwardly sigh in admiration. In fact, in his previous life, there were also some creatures that possessed some strange abilities. For example, the electric eel could produce biological electricity within its body. There was also a type of lizard that could produce chemical reactions within its body that could produce smoke and fire.
Next, the two drank tea as they talked about their experiences over the past year.
Luo Kai gave a brief account of what had happened in the past year without hiding anything.
When he heard that Luo Kai had killed a lot of Blackguard, Li Gui frowned: "The Jiu Yuan farm is very powerful. Third Brother, you have to be careful."
Li Gui was rescued by the Dragon Shark pirates. With his intelligence and wisdom, he was able to get a staff position in the Dragon Shark pirates. He was the one who facilitated the recruitment of the Great Lord of Seongma Province. After arriving in Longyang County, he joined forces with the Jiu Yuan farm and the City Lord's Mansion to establish the Dragon Shark Business Group. They tried their best to suppress the Blackstone Business Group. If there were no problems, they would soon replace the Blackstone Business Group as one of the three forces controlling Longyang County.
Luo Kai did not expect that the mastermind behind the Dragon Shark pirates was Li Gui. The Dragon Shark pirates had always been notorious. If they had a firm foothold on land, it would not be a good thing. But he was too lazy to get involved in these things. He was just worried about what Little Zhuo would do if the Blackstone Business Group fell.
"Third Brother, I know that your relationship with the Blackstone Business Group is not bad. You can rest assured that I will leave Zang Haisheng's family a way out. It is also good to be a rich man."
Luo Kai stood up and bowed to Li Gui: "Thank you, Second Brother."
Li Gui smiled and waved his hand: "It's a small matter. Third Brother, do you know what the South Tooth Island has become?"
"What?"
Li Gui sighed: "The Three-Eyed Race's warden is indeed extraordinary. He actually bought two Giant Kun class battleships from Higashimogami Province and established a powerful fleet. The Southern Sea pirates can only avoid them. Now, the South Tooth Island has become a powerful military fortress. There are steel factories and military factories on the island. Not only is it self-sufficient, it has also been sold to other countries!"
Luo Kai was not interested in this and only nodded lightly.
Li Gui then said mysteriously: "Third Brother, do you know who built the military factories on the South Tooth Island?"
Luo Kai was a little confused: "Who?"
"It is the Blackstone business. The iron ore produced by the South Tooth Island in the past was also sold to Blackstone!
Zang Haisheng is not an ordinary person. It is still unknown who will emerge victorious in the competition between the three powers in Longyang County! "
Li Gui was so excited that his face was flushed red. It was obvious that this kind of power struggle was the direction of his life. Luo Kai, on the other hand, was very uninterested.
Li Gui was a very good judge of character and was the best at reading people's expressions. Seeing that Luo Kai was not interested in these things, he changed the topic and said, "It is really fate that we brothers can meet again this time. Third Brother has earned some family property over the years. If Third Brother needs anything, just ask."
Luo Kai smiled and said: "No need. I have enough to eat and the whole family is not hungry. There is nothing I need."
Li Gui thought for a while and said: "Third Brother, I saw that you were very interested in the gene medicine. I have some connections and can get some."
Luo Kai hurriedly waved his hand: "No need, Second Brother. It seems like you owe me something!"
Li Gui shook his head: "If it were not for you and Big Brother, I would have died long ago. Third Brother, don't be polite with me. After this transaction, I will give you the ten portions of gene medicine."
Luo Kai was stunned: "What do you mean? Aren't we going to split it equally?"
Li Gui said with a chuckle: "Third Brother, to tell you the truth, even if there was no one else, I could have easily obtained that elemental coral. I was just worried that it would be discovered later, so I found some scapegoats."
Luo Kai was a little unhappy, but he did not say anything. This world was like this. It was a competition of whose methods were better, and whose heart was blacker.
"Then what if the three of them know?
Or will they find trouble with you later? "
Li Gui's face turned cold as he sneered: "Hmph, if I am not wrong, this news will definitely be leaked by them. Back then, my business was foolproof, but I was betrayed by a traitor and was locked up in South Tooth Island Prison. The mastermind behind this must be a member of the Hunter's Guild. The Three Tigers of She Shan are registered hunters of the Hunter's Guild. They are very strong, and each of them is not weaker than a regular Physique Warrior in a one-on-one fight.
