The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

This story has a deadly attraction for the magnates and nobles of Thunder City.

It's not just because they mimic the upper echelons of the Empire, but because they are truly eager to possess their own colonies.

Unfortunately, the land of the New Continent has been mostly devoured by the Empire, with the fertile territories granted to the nobles of the Empire, leaving nothing for them.

The remaining lands are either too barren to profit from, located at the front line of battles with Hell, or simply controlled by a group of Demon Kings.

The Andes Family, by sipping a bit of the soup leaked from the fingers of the Imperial nobles, has become the uncrowned king of Thunder City.

Luo Yan can almost be certain that they will be attracted to this beautiful story, after all, there is nothing new under the sun, and similar events have precedents on Earth.

Of course, this story cannot be told with just a few carriages; a cargo ship with the capability for ocean voyages must dock at the port of Thunder City.

It doesn't even have to set sail. Just anchoring at the dock for the citizens of Thunder City to see is sufficient.

If he needs to take anything down from it, a ship can be sent from Jack's smuggling port, and then, under the cover of darkness, a switch can be made with a sleight of hand.

Unfortunately, a teleportation array leaves traces; otherwise, it could have been solved more easily with Extraordinary Power.

Luo Yan: "You don't need to know the details, you just need to tell me if it can be done."

"No problem, sir, it's not difficult for us." At this point, Jack paused for a moment and said hesitantly, "But there's one thing I must report to you in advance. Recently, the Lizardmen in the southwestern swamp area seem to be having some issues and have been frequently attacking coastal areas, so in terms of safety, it might..."

Seeing Jack's difficulty in speaking, Luo Yan casually replied.

"I'll send someone to assist you."

He remembered that when he first arrived here, that group of Lizardmen had caused him trouble. But later, due to many events occurring in the maze, he temporarily couldn't take care of them, so he ignored them.

However, that doesn't mean he forgot.

When he gets the chance, he'll settle the score with them sooner or later!

Seeing the Demon King agree to dispatch troops to help him, Jack was overjoyed and hurriedly expressed his gratitude.

"Thank you, Lord Demon King!"

"You're welcome, it's just a small matter."

Luo Yan paused for a moment, then continued.

"Also, the second matter is actually connected to the first; I need you to prepare a clean ocean cargo ship for me and introduce a trustworthy captain with a tight lip. I don't need him to really set sail; staying in the port most of the time is enough."

A sailor can remain on the ship without disembarking, but the captain still needs to interact with the port people occasionally, so it's best to arrange for a human.

Hearing this, Jack immediately said.

"This can be easily done. Many of my men have navigation experience, and I can assure you, they are all trustworthy!"

Not only are they trustworthy, but they've also sworn in front of the Demon King Statue and even recorded it with a Recording Crystal.

This has almost become a tradition within the Brotherhood.

To become a core member, one must go through the baptism of the acolyte and become a follower of the Demon King.

Seeing Jack's earnest guarantee, Luo Yan nodded approvingly.

"Alright, then I'll wait for your news."

Jack immediately followed up by asking.

"May I ask when approximately you need it?"

After a brief consideration, Luo Yan replied.

"Can it be done before sunset?"

Before sunset?!

Jack was slightly taken aback and instinctively glanced out the window at the sky. Although it was still morning, one day seemed too rushed no matter how you looked at it.

However, seeing that Lord Demon King had no intention of negotiating with him, he gritted his teeth and, in the end, reluctantly agreed.

"I'll do my best..."

...

As it turned out, without pushing himself, Jack would never have realized just how strong his execution capability could be. He actually managed to get everything done in just one day.

At sunset, a massive ocean-going cargo ship docked at the port of Thunder City, with a gigantic banner flying from the mast, fluttering in the sea breeze.

The flag was made of expensive silk, primarily in the most costly shade of purple. The family crest at its center was a half-curved silver moon, symbolizing the illustrious status of the Colin family, hanging high in the night sky, never to waver. Surrounding the silver moon was intricate gold thread, resembling a blooming golden rose, highlighting coldness and nobility.

Incidentally, the emblem printed on the flag was designed by the players of the Great Graveyard, with a crafting fee of only ten thousand joss papers plus fifty contribution points.

If it were in the Imperial Holy City, this flag might get exposed, for family crests using purple as the primary color are scarce, and the elements within the emblem have certain connections to the family's history.

However, this was indeed the northeastern shore of the Vortex Sea, the heartland of the human world, far from the political center of the Empire.

Even the king of the Ryan Kingdom has possibly rarely been to the Holy City in his lifetime, let alone the Campbell Duchy below the Kingdom.

Unless deeply immersed in Empire politics, it's virtually impossible to be well-versed with those myriad emblems.

Watching the giant ship slowly enter the port, the sailors on the dock and the townsfolk ashore cast admiring glances its way.
