Chapter 71 Waiting for the Thunder

The inexplicable disappearance of this huge amount of gold will inevitably cause the big shots who rule the city to be suspicious of each other. Once the eggs are cracked, flies will naturally bite them.

During the last meeting at the City Government Affairs Hall, Viscount Isklan wanted to intervene in the government affairs of Raging Waves City, and Luke was at the scene at that time.

In the game, this enlightened nobleman who is one of the few among the Blade-wielding Brotherhood managed to squeeze his way into the City Council of Raging Waves City and became a member of the Council due to his ability.

If there is any looseness inside Raging Wave City this time, he will definitely take action immediately.

Only by letting the old and new nobles fight in Raging Waves City would they have no energy to manage the Cape District.

As for whether this gold will be exposed in the future.

Hum!

What if it's exposed?

At that time, whoever has this gold in hand is the boss!

Um……

After figuring out what to do next, Luke drank coffee again and felt smoother and more refreshing.

Two naval warships carried the survivors of the Clover away and sailed to Raging Waves City. Four merchant ships from the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau continued to salvage the airship. The important thing was to fish out the vault safe first, and the others could organize a ship.

The team towed the wreckage of the airship back to Cape Port.

Mrs. Tasia's progress was also going very smoothly, without any interference, and the Nagas could safely search every corner of the seabed carefully.

Put the gold you found into your pocket and transport it back to the underwater cabin of the Lucky Princess. After more than a hundred naga made several trips back and forth, all the gold was transferred.

After receiving the gold, Luke asked Shelley to continue working on the other three ships, and the Lucky Princess returned...

As soon as the news of the attack and crash of the Clover armed airship was reported back to Raging Wave City, it immediately caused a huge sensation. This airship was carrying the taxes that Raging Wave City paid to the empire. More than three tons of gold was not a small amount.

If the emperor of the empire were to blame, I don't know how many people would be implicated.

Fortunately, another news came out soon.

When the armed airship Clover was attacked, the Meteor Inspector of the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau was leading the joint fleet of the Secret Intelligence Bureau and the Navy to pursue the pirates in the nearby waters. The Meteor Inspector found the fallen Clover and immediately carried out rescue, which not only succeeded

All passengers were rescued safely and imperial tax money was recovered.

The treasury safe containing the imperial tax money was sent to the City Government Affairs Office, and Congressman Ibur opened it in person. The gold inside was intact.

Many people breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the taxes are there, the entire responsibility lies with the attackers.

And... the safety hazards of steam airships.

In order to clear away its responsibility, the City Government Affairs Office of Nutao City not only denounced the attackers, but also targeted the armed airship Clover responsible for the transportation.

"The military was right not to purchase a steam airship! In order to reduce its own weight, it used a soft airbag without any protective capabilities, allowing an attacker to cut off the airbag as easily as cutting off his own fingernails.

Only hydrogen can bring greater lift to the airship, and it does not need to carry a large amount of fuel like conventional thermal airships. The surplus load allows the airship to be equipped with a hard airbag shell, allowing the airship to have a larger pod. We can

Mount the cannon on the airship.

The Alchemists Association of Nutau City has developed a hydrogen stabilizer. The hydrogen mixed with the gaseous stabilizer is no longer easily ignited and is the best material for building airships.

However, there are always some people in the palace who block the development of new hydrogen airships because of the high price of hydrogen stabilizers.

The new steam airship is cheap, but if there is no Meteor Inspector this time, it will not be a loss of a steam airship this time.

Imperial taxes, as well as priceless Imperial senior officials, will all leave us!

…”

For a time, a wave of public opinion was launched in Nutao City to denounce the new steam airship. The hidden dangers and backwardness of the steam airship, as well as the advantages and prospects of the new hydrogen airship, continued to dominate the headlines of major newspapers.

The news about the Cape District Secret Service rescuing many important people on board the Clover has become a foil to the dispute between steam airships and new steam airships.

Even when being interviewed, Representative Ibur talked about the shortcomings of steam airships and touted new steam airships as the future.

Let Luke sigh: As long as the capitalists are still breathing, they will first think about how to make money. Is your hydrogen stabilizer just a problem of high price? The stabilizer itself is not very stable!

It requires constant filling of stabilizers to stabilize hydrogen and make good money.

Luke doesn't care about the debate between steam and hydrogen, and he just doesn't want too much attention on himself.

Running his own rabbit hutch in Cape District is his hobby.

The wreckage of the Clover airship was pulled to the beach near the Cape District port. Luke had people circle the wreckage and sent spies to keep it under strict guard.

No one is allowed in without the detective's order!

The investigation of this case still needs to be pretentious. Luke personally took the lead in setting up the Clover Incident Investigation Team. He also asked Kylena to write a report and apply to the City Administration Department for 20 million Reichsmarks for case handling funds.

Unexpectedly, the City Government Affairs Department actually approved such an outrageous funding application. The City Finance and Taxation Office bypassed the Security Office and directly transferred the funds to the account of the Haijiao District Secret Intelligence Bureau.

Congressman Ibur is so generous!

Luke also generously gave Mrs. Tasia 5 million Imperial Marks and asked her to purchase a batch of supplies in Cape District and transport them back to Fishbone Island. After settling everything on Fishbone Island, they would return to Cape District to discuss how to proceed.

Cooperation between two backward regions.

The next step is to wait for those black gold mines to explode.

If Representative Ibor cannot retrieve the gold, will those big shots believe that he cannot remember where he threw the gold?

How did the attacker end up on the airship?

What is her purpose? Who is behind it?

Nearly nine tons of gold are enough for their imaginations.

The most important thing is... only a few people within them know about secretly transporting this batch of gold. If anyone is interested in this batch of gold, it must be their insiders.

Just guess each other.

I'll work on my secret technique first.

Luke, who had a little leisure time, began to think about improving his strength again.

Troll bloodline (Taotie), spearmanship, Wolf Dagger No. 4, and Greedy Red Dragon Spear, these are the foundations for Luke's own power system.

The combination of troll bloodline (Gluttonous), spear skills, and the Red Dragon Spear can basically guarantee his need for close combat. Combined with his identity as a detective, and with so many subordinates around, there should be few opportunities for close combat.

The firearms style is relatively strong in the early stages of the game, and as an agent of the Secret Intelligence Service, you can get a special supply of special bullets. Hiding behind and firing cold shots is the way to fight for a qualified agent.

Is there any secret technique to increase the power of firearms?
