Sign In: Becoming A Great Spell Deity Starting From The Magic Academy

Chapter 462: Recruitment of Crew Members

On this day, Lei Luo once again stood outside the door of Kronin.

Although it had only been less than a month, when Lei Luo once again stood outside the door of Kronin, he felt as if a lifetime had passed.

Dong, dong, dong.

Lei Luo once again knocked on the wooden door of Kronin.

As the wooden door opened again, Kronin saw Lei Luo standing at the door.

Unlike last time, Lei Luo wasn’t staring at Kronin this time. Instead, Kronin was staring at Lei Luo.

Without saying a word, Lei Luo just stood at the door and smiled faintly.

Kronin didn’t know what Lei Luo had learned from this mutiny.

However, from the way he looked at Lei Luo, it seemed like he had completely changed.

Kronin had originally thought that after experiencing such a sudden and violent blow.

For a young man like Lei Luo, it would take at least a period of time for him to completely recover.

However, what surprised him was that he did not feel even a hint of decadence from Lei Luo.

Lei Luo no longer seemed to be that person who felt that the whole world was under his control.

He was no longer as sharp and aggressive as before.

However, behind his humble expression, Kronin could clearly feel an even stronger and more persistent desire—the desire to prove himself to be the strongest.

“Old Sir, I’m here again.”

Because his body had not fully recovered, Lei Luo’s face was still a little pale.

Therefore, his smile carried a little weariness.

However, this tiredness could not be hidden at all. At this moment, Lei Luo’s body was bursting with vitality.

Kronin also laughed and said, “I knew you would come again, but I didn’t expect you to come so soon.”

“So, I should still be welcomed?” Lei Luo asked with a smile.

Kronin smiled and moved aside. “Of course, always. Please come in.”

The two walked into the room and sat down. Kronin went straight to the point and said to Lei Luo, “Karman contacted me.”

“What did he want with you?” Lei Luo replied.

“He offered the same conditions as you, and I agreed to his conditions,” Kronin said again.

Lei Luo’s smile didn’t change. “Of course.”

“Yes.” Kronin nodded and asked as he served tea to Lei Luo.

“Then...What can I help you with?”

“Help? I don’t like the usage of the word ‘you.’”

Lei Luo took the tea and shook his head with a smile. “I would prefer it if you would ask me what else we can trade.”

Kronin raised his head and smiled, “Yes, I was wrong. What else does Sir Lei Luo want to trade with us?”

“I have a friend who brought me a fleet from afar. The size of the fleet is not big. What’s worse is that we don’t have enough crew members. So...we need to recruit some crew members.”

Hearing Lei Luo’s words, Kronin was a little confused.

“I’m afraid I can’t be of much help in recruiting crew members.”

Lei Luo saw the puzzled look on Kronin’s face, so he said with a smile. “No, of course you can help. And it’s a big help. Why don’t I give you a little hint? In this transaction, the thing I ask you for is exactly the thing I want to give you.”

Lei Luo’s words made Kronin a little muddle-headed for a moment, but soon, his mind quivered and he suddenly reacted.

Kronin looked at Lei Luo in disbelief. “Are you saying...”

Lei Luo calmly confirmed Kronin’s guess.

“That’s right. In my opinion, loyal, hard-working, and obedient, and at the same time extremely familiar with the structure and operation of the ship, who can compare to a magic conductor who has been working for years?”

Lei Luo said it lightly, but Kronin knew very well how powerful it was.

Using a magic conductor as a soldier was one of the three major crimes that the senate absolutely forbade.

Kronin looked at Lei Luo and asked with some doubt, “Are you really going to do this?”

Lei Luo took a sip of tea and asked in return, “What, the old sir doesn’t seem to be willing to help me?”

“No.”

Kronin almost immediately reached out his hand and said, “Of course not. I’m very happy to help you. I just want to make sure that your thoughts are not impulsive.”

“I know the consequences of doing so,” replied Lei Luo. “Just like I know the consequences of not doing so.”

After saying this, Lei Luo put down the Teacup and leaned against the chair.

Although his body had recovered a lot, he was still a little weak.

“I think you should know how important the Cape of Good Hope is to me in my plan. However, in three months, Karman will get it. He is not a mediocre person, and he has such a huge amount of strength behind him. If I wait until he has a firm foothold, then I may lose the Cape of Good Hope forever. This is something that I cannot tolerate. Therefore, I have to do something before he successfully gets the Cape of Good Hope. And this requires an army that has always been strong and absolutely loyal.”

Lei Luo looked at Kronin as he spoke.

“To be honest, I cannot have a commander because I will personally command the entire fleet. But I have to have soldiers because the ship will always need someone to drive it. And in such a short period of time, other than the source of soldiers that I mentioned just now, I do not have the ability to find a reliable source of soldiers from any place, and one that can quickly enter combat state.”

Kronin nodded very seriously. He could clearly feel Reylo’s determination.

After the two of them were quiet for a while, Kronin said again, “Aren’t you worried about your fleet becoming a magic conductor? Aren’t you worried about us usurping your command?”

“Of course I’m worried. Very worried.”

Lei Luo smiled.

“After the Holy City of Beauty, I’m afraid that anyone will usurp my command. Therefore, I’ll ensure that you won’t be able to usurp my command. First, my goal is to form ten lord-level main force formations within three months. I will form four of these formations into main force fleets, under my personal control and command. The soldiers of these four formations will all be acted by the magic conductor. There will be no ship commanders, and all will be under my direct command from the flagship. As for the other six fleets, I will split them into two auxiliary formations, under the command of my military law director and Intelligence Director respectively.

Kronin pondered for a moment and said, “These six fleets all use pirates as crew members...”

“If it’s four lord-class main forces, we will have to provide you with almost three million working magic shooters... This amount is a bit large, and it will be difficult for us to gather them.”

“I think you might have misunderstood me,” Lei Luo said with a smile.

“Well...” Kronin was confused again.
