Mystery: A Spark

The same thought crossed Klein's mind, and he realized Arthur's purpose, so he didn't say anything more.

In fact, if it really came down to finding a place for Silver City to settle down, Klein did have a way.

Because he also has the disguise of a sea god, which allows him to have great influence in the Roseside Islands, finding a place there for Silver City to settle down shouldn't be a problem.

Of course, he couldn't compare to Arthur in terms of resettling people.

After all, Klein can only be considered an evil god at best, while Arthur is already the head of state of a country and can be said to be one of the largest landowners in the world.

So, since Arthur wanted to get involved in Silver City's affairs, Klein was happy to take it easy.

“Mr. ‘Chariot’, do you have any good ideas?” Derrick racked his brains for a while, but in the end he couldn’t come up with any good ideas. He could only use his most proficient skill to ask Mr. “Chariot” for advice.

And Mr. "Chariot" gave him the answer he expected:

"If your Silver City wants to find a suitable place to live in the outside world, the best way is to join a country, become a citizen of that country, and assume the corresponding responsibilities and obligations."

"You must already know about these countries outside. Although there are nine countries, the situation in East and West Bailang in the Southern Continent is extremely chaotic. If your Silver City does not intend to play a game of hegemony in the Southern Continent, it is not a good choice."

Derrick nodded, agreeing wholeheartedly.

They, from Silver City, have been fighting in the Land of Forsaken Gods for so many years, and they came out hoping for a more stable future.

However, based on previous understanding, the southern continent was not only colonized by various countries, but also had a large number of cults active, frequently engaging in blood sacrifices, and lacked a strong government. It was clearly not a place suitable for stable development.

Silver City were, after all, outsiders. If they rashly entered the chaotic Southern Continent, they might be attacked by all sides.

There's no need to even talk about fighting for supremacy. Silver City only has a few thousand people in total. What kind of supremacy could they possibly fight for? A single battle would leave them crippled.

Therefore, the best solution for Silver City is to find a powerful outsider to rely on.

Having figured this out, Derrick immediately asked:

"How about Rune? I remember most of you are from Rune. Is it feasible for Silver City to join Rune?"

“That works.” Arthur nodded.

Emlyn asked with a somewhat strange expression:

"You say it's feasible without keeping your word? Shouldn't that be the question 'Miss Justice' asking?"

Has this idiot still not figured out the identity of "Chariot"? What's going on in his head? Alger glanced at Emlyn with some surprise.

Emlyn was puzzled by his gaze, wondering what was wrong with what he had just said.

At that moment, Audrey chuckled and said:

“No, Mr. Moon, in this matter, Mr. Chariot’s words carry more weight than mine, or rather, no one’s words are more effective than his.”

"Huh?" Emlyn paused for a moment, then looked at Arthur and tentatively asked:

"you are?"

“I am Arthur Heller.” Arthur looked at Derrick and added:

"I am the head of the Ruen Empire."

Emlyn was instantly stunned.

Cattleya also looked surprised, glancing at Arthur as if she could hardly believe it.

Derrick was stunned. He stood there for two seconds, then asked uncertainly:

"What rank of official is this head of state?"

“The nation’s top leader,” Alger answered his question.

"The highest...leader?"

“Yes, so I can grant you Silver City a place to live, but you will need to provide some of your people to work for me. You can go back and discuss this with your elders. I await your reply,” Arthur said.

“Uh… okay, I’ll go back and discuss this with the elders,” Derrick said, swallowing hard.

Before today, Derrick considered Mr. "Chariot" to be a very reliable wise man who gave Derrick a lot of useful advice, which enabled Derrick to have a respectful but relatively normal conversation with him.

However, after learning about Mr. "Chariot"'s identity today, Derrick inevitably felt a strong sense of pressure when communicating with this man again.

It's like facing the chief executive.

“Don’t be nervous. Your real identity doesn’t matter at the Tarot meeting. We are all just like-minded people gathered here by Mr. Fool’s call,” Arthur said, noticing Derrick’s nervousness.

"I understand." Derrick relaxed a little.

Arthur smiled, then looked at Cattleya and said with some surprise:

"I thought you were going to say something."

Now that Huang Beibei has taken over Baifeng Palace and become the governor of Intis, it's obvious that Cattleya will definitely be by her side, ready to lend a hand at any time.

In other words, when Arthur was trying to win over Silver City, it was entirely possible that, in order to protect Huang Beibei's interests, she also tried to persuade Silver City to join Intis.

To avoid this situation, Arthur had prepared a backup plan, but he did not expect that Cattleya would remain silent.

“Because it’s pointless,” Cattleya said, glancing at Arthur with a hint of frustration.

She truly hadn't expected that the "chariot" in front of her would be the same person as that wild man, Arthur.

Cattleya had indeed considered winning over Silver City, but after discovering that the "chariot" was actually Arthur, she abandoned that idea.

Even if she disliked Arthur, she knew that her queen favored this man and even took the initiative to compete for the position of leader of Intis, just to help him when he needed it.

Under these circumstances, Cattleya would naturally not deliberately sabotage what had just happened; that would be a thankless and futile endeavor.

However, although Cattleya did not cause any trouble in what had just happened, she did have something she needed to ask Arthur about.

“‘Fool’, I have something I wish to discuss with ‘Chariot’ alone,” Cattleya asked the head of the bronze table.

“Okay.” Klein ignored the others and then curiously eavesdropped.

"Is there something you need?" Arthur asked.

"I'm asking you, what exactly did you say to Frank before? He's been acting crazy on the Future every day!" Cattleya asked, barely suppressing her anger.

Chapter 304 Resident Evil!?

Upon hearing Cattleya's question, Arthur was momentarily unable to recall the details of the matter.

After recalling for a moment, he asked:

"Is it about the Primarch?"

“It was true at first, but not later, and that’s when the problems started.” Gadriya shook her head, a complex look in her eyes.

"Frank initially focused on the research of that protogenes, but made little progress. So, he changed his approach and shifted his research focus to something he called 'microbes'."

"Microorganisms!?" Arthur's lips twitched.

"Yes, to be more precise, what Frank wanted to study was viruses. He believed that viruses could trigger a reaction in the human body and cause changes in the human body, so Frank tried to create a virus that could enable human evolution through research in this area."

"Then, he will apply this virus back to the research of the Primarch, believing that this will create an existence that is more powerful and superior than humans, an existence worthy of the name Primarch."

Cattleya looked at Arthur and said in a stiff tone:

"I don't want to comment on his ideas, but all I know is that he made a mess of my ship, and because I had to assist the Queen, I didn't have time to return to the Future, and no one else could control him."

"So, now you know why I'm so angry?"

Arthur:......

Klein, who was eavesdropping: ...

At that moment, a word flashed through their minds almost simultaneously:

"resident Evil."

Arthur wiped his face, paused for two seconds, and said in a serious tone:

"I will figure out how to handle this matter after this tarot session ends."

"I should keep an eye on this too..." Klein thought to himself.

Otherwise, he'll probably still be completely unaware when zombies besiege the city.

Of course, the idea of ​​a zombie apocalypse is a bit of an exaggeration, after all, this is a high-magic world.

The existence of powerful beings like angels and true gods means that this world is more resilient than Earth, and ordinary disasters cannot bring it down.

But therein lies the problem.

From the perspective of this world, the biohazard crisis on Earth is not actually that terrifying.

But if a biohazard crisis were to actually break out in this world, would it be the same as on Earth?

Will the zombies in a high-magic world be stronger? Will they be more contagious?

There's no need to cite other examples; the Marvel Zombie Universe is terrifying enough.

All living beings have turned into zombies, including the heroes and villains.

These people with superpowers became even more terrifying after turning into zombies. They not only retained their original abilities but also gained the ability to infect others and turn them into zombies. Later, they even began to invade other universes, which is terrifying to even think about.

If Frank were to create something like this, even if it only had half the power of the Marvel Zombie Universe Virus, it would still be a catastrophe.

Therefore, Frank's matter needs to be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise it might cause some serious trouble.

“I hope you can handle this as soon as possible,” Cattleya said. “Also, regarding the two materials you need, it seems the Queen has some leads. Would you like to ask her yourself, or should I ask her for you?”

“Hmm, I’ll ask him myself,” Arthur said, stroking his chin.

“Alright then.” Gadriya ended their private conversation.

After the members made some transactions and exchanged some information, the tarot meeting came to an end.

Opening his eyes, Arthur sat up from the recliner and called out:

"Alsace".

"Here you are." Arthas appeared at the low table beside him. "What are your instructions, Your Majesty?"

"Stop joking around, take me to the Future. I need to see Frank about something important."

"Alright, hold on tight, the Arthas is about to depart!" The puppy stretched out its paw and patted forward, and a phantom door appeared in front of Arthur.

“You’re so lively.” Arthur picked up the puppy and stepped through the travel portal.

The scene shifted, and when things calmed down, Arthur found himself aboard the Future.
