Versatile Mage: Thunderstorm

Chapter 87 Li Yu: Oh no, it’s coming for me!

Two hours later, Dongzi looked at the dusty figure in front of him in confusion.
"Is your brotherhood really without support?"

"It shouldn't be!"

Although this so-called third brother of the brotherhood is a mid-level magician, he is just a show-off. He has great skills but cannot release mid-level magic, and his release speed of basic magic is also slower than his own.

If he hadn't intended to let the other party go, the latter would have already reported to the King of Hell.

Even he, the third in command, can't beat him. He has no strength and no influence. How dare he blatantly do something like collecting protection fees?

It's like a mouse looking for a cat - looking for death!

"Big brother, we are the ones who failed to recognize the great man and offended you."

When Dongzi was at a loss for words, the third brother took the initiative to speak.
"Why don't you just carve out a path for us? We won't hesitate to compensate you for the damages you have suffered."

Dongzi was even more surprised. Standing at attention when being beaten, it was obvious that the third brother had learned the lesson well!

Under normal circumstances, Dongzi might have just made a quick payment and called it a day, but it was different now.

"Tell me, who is your boss?"

"I don't know."

The third brother shook his head to indicate that he didn't know. This attitude also made Dongzi angry.

"You are fooling around!"

He casually drew out the long sword beside him and placed it directly on the third brother's neck. The cold touch made the third brother's whole body numb instantly.
"Why don't you try telling me again?"

Unexpectedly, facing Dongzi's murderous look, the third brother could only speak with difficulty to defend himself.
"Brother, I'm not kidding you, I really don't know!"

"Although my brothers all call me Third Brother, I am actually just a high-level fighter. Almost all the affairs of our fraternity are handled by Second Brother. Apart from him, no one has ever seen the Big Brother, let alone knows his true identity."

"Ok?"

"Is your eldest brother so mysterious?"

Dongzi expressed his doubts at the right time.

"Since you haven't even seen that so-called big brother, why do you believe in his existence so much? Aren't you afraid that your second brother has deceived you?"

In response to this, the third brother shook his head with certainty.

"Impossible, our eldest brother definitely exists."

"What's the proof?"

"Brother, you don't know something!" Dongzi's question seemed to open up the third brother's chatterbox.
"Although I have never seen the eldest brother's true appearance, I have seen him in action. I am sure that the eldest brother is a powerful fire mage, while our second brother is a water and plant mage. They cannot be the same person."

The question could have been answered here, but the third brother still kept talking.
"Let me tell you, the fact that our fraternity has been able to survive until now is entirely due to Big Brother's efforts."

"If it weren't for my eldest brother, our strength would have been swallowed up by the Shuiyun Society in the next area long ago."

"Shuiyun Society?" The sudden appearance of this force made Dongzi excited.
"Your area is not big, but you have quite a lot of power!"

"After all, our place is quite chaotic! If the security is good enough, there would be no room for us to get lost."

"You're quite straightforward!" Dongzi chose to open a store here because this place was more mixed with good and bad people than other places.

"Tell me more about this Shuiyun Society."

"Shuiyun Club..."

The third brother's tone was somewhat melancholy.
“That bunch of bastards are much stronger than us. They have seven or eight mid-level mages and dozens of beginner mages. The eldest is a mid-level spirit mage.

They work for bars, underground casinos, and fighting arenas all day long. They are much richer than us. I tell you..."

"and many more."

Before the third brother could say anything, Dongzi interrupted him with a suspicious look on his face.

"The Shuiyun Society is twice as powerful as yours, right? And they haven't destroyed you yet?"

It would be fine if I didn't ask this question, but when I asked it, Brother San got excited instantly.

“This is where our boss is so great.”

"Although they are all mid-level mages, the boss is much stronger than the leaders of Shuiyun Society. He can always suppress seven or eight of them by himself. Only the rest of us can deal with Shuiyun Society's gang of younger brothers."

"One against seven or eight? Or is he suppressing them all? One of them is a Spirit Seed Mage?"

Dongzi's eyes widened, a group fight is not a one-on-one duel between mages. To face off against seven or eight mages of the same level at the same time and to suppress them, even a senior mage of the third level of dual system would find it difficult to do so, right?
Dongzi's current thought is that this is indeed a place where crouching tigers and hidden dragons are everywhere. A gangster boss in a small area can actually have such strength. "Where is your headquarters?"

Dongzi asked again.

Finally, Brother San did not answer this question.

"It's in the Nightingale Dance Hall in front. That's the place we run ourselves. My second brother also works there."

"Your eldest brother is not here?"

Dongzi raised his eyebrows.

"Brother! I really don't know the whereabouts of our boss! It's useless for you to ask me."

The third brother's tone was filled with helplessness. He wanted to sell out his teammates, but the two above him never gave him a chance.

……

Another three hours passed, and Li Yu, who had completed his disguise, arrived at the magic shop and met Dongzi who was waiting there.

As soon as they met, Li Yu asked the doubts that had been bothering him for the past few hours.
"It's so easy to get the information? Is it credible?"

Don't people in the underworld need to value their credibility? If you betray your boss so easily, can you still join other gangs in the future?

Dongzi was not sure, but still said,

"It may not be credible, but at least we can confirm that the address of the Brotherhood's headquarters is correct. I believe that with your strength, even if there is an accident, things can get back on track."

That's right. Li Yu no longer hesitated and said directly:
"Where is that third brother? Let me go meet him."

Not long after, the honest third brother appeared in front of Li Yu with his head lowered and his face full of awe. He had just realized that this was the owner's backer, and he also understood that he and his friends were unlucky and accidentally ran into a big boss who was interested in their brotherhood.

At this time, the third brother was already planning how to change his allegiance after the fall of the Brotherhood.

"Call your second brother and confirm his whereabouts."

Li Yu threw back the phone that Dongzi had confiscated from his third brother. Dongzi caught it in a flustered manner and nodded repeatedly.
"understand."

……

Half an hour later, Li Yu appeared at the main entrance of the Nightingale Ballroom.

It was already nine o'clock in the evening, the busiest time in the ballroom, with men and women coming in one after another. They said to the waiter who came up to them:
"I made an appointment with your boss to meet here half an hour ago. Take me to see him."

"Um…"

The waiter hesitated for a moment and then bent down slightly.

"Okay, wait a minute."

Two minutes later, the waiter came back, followed by a young man dressed as a manager.
"Manager, this is it."

The waiter briefly introduced himself and then stepped away. The manager then extended an invitation to Li Yu with a smile on his face:
"Dear guest, please follow me. The boss is waiting in the reception room."

Li Yu went up to the top floor under the guidance of the manager. The bright and spacious lobby formed a sharp contrast with the dim lights and cramped space in the ballroom below, which made Li Yu feel a little relaxed.

Sitting on the sofa in the corner of the lobby, a young man with a delicate face and gentle temperament gestured to him. Li Yu walked straight over and sat down opposite him, his tone slightly surprised.
"Are you the second brother?"

"What? Friend, doesn't it look like it?" The young man smiled and made a cup of tea for Li Yu.

"You have the temperament of an ordinary, harmless college student."

He's the kind of guy who gets asked for his contact information by little girls when he's walking on the street, and he has nothing to do with gangsters who collect protection fees.

"College students are hardly harmless!"

Chinese college students are divided into two categories. One category is ordinary people who cannot awaken magic and are truly powerless.

The other group of students who passed the magic college entrance examination are all powerful wizards comparable to the military.

But neither of them dwelled on it too much, and the second brother continued:
"Is this friend looking to protect our fraternity's territory? Or is he seeking an explanation for the offense we have committed against you?"

"What if I'm here to grab territory?"

Li Yu spoke in a playful tone, staring at his second brother without moving, expecting him to suddenly attack.

However, there was no sudden attack, and the young man on the opposite side smiled.

"I wonder if this friend is willing to take over this place peacefully?"

Li Yu: ???
It’s broken, it’s coming for me!
