Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)

Chapter 2165 The True Purpose

Levi could not help but furrow his brow upon learning about the extensive losses suffered by Martin's

naval forces. There was no denying the King of Rivenia's formidable naval power, yet even his fleet

had endured significant casualties. This prompted Levi to carefully contemplate his next steps.

Levi finally voiced his concerns after thoughtful consideration, "Even if you plan to utilize those

disposable pawns from Emsgate, I believe there are still substantial risks involved. The most critical

issue seems to be that your fleet relied on luck rather than their naval prowess to evade the Dead

Sea."

Martin's spirits were uplifted upon hearing Levi's words. He had not anticipated Levi seeing through the

true purpose of the banquet and even deducing how the fleet had managed to escape.

"Your astuteness knows no bounds. It seems nothing can escape your discerning gaze," Martin praised

with a hint of awe in his voice.

The sole reason Martin invited the individuals from Emsgate was to exploit them as pawns in the

perilous expedition. Of course, he harbored serious doubts that any of them would survive until the final

division of benefits.

"Don't state the obvious, Martin. You wouldn't offer such substantial rewards unless you required a

large group to ensure your safe passage," Levi scoffed and his tone was one filled with cynicism.

Martin remained unperturbed by Levi's words and instead nodded in agreement. After all, it was often

one's enemies who truly understood them. He was just amazed at how well Levi knew his character.

"Now that you've figured me out, I promise not to withhold any information from you. Here, take this. It's

the navigational map to the Sky Island and the Cold Trench Ocean." Martin placed the scroll on the

table and continued, "Though, I need to clarify in advance that these markings were made in a foggy

environment, so their accuracy cannot be guaranteed."

Levi deliberated over this for a while before deciding whether to keep the scroll. He could not dismiss

the possibility that it might be a trap set by Martin as he was a cunning man. After he weighed the pros

and cons, he eventually chose to hold onto it for future use. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

"By the way, didn't you invite Aurelius? Where is he?" Levi knew Aurelius was one of their

collaborators, so he was curious about his absence from the meeting. Martin understood Levi's

underlying question and replied calmly, "Well, he has a good rapport with the Emsgate faction. I didn't

want that connection to go to waste, so he's off somewhere trying to smooth things over with them."

Levi's expression changed upon hearing Martin's response. Indeed, Levi had expressed discontent

with the Watkins Family's recent alignment with Emsgate and had made some remarks over it, but he

never considered involving them in their plans.

"Hm... you certainly have some nerve. But if your plan backfires and anger that person, you can be

certain that your territory will end up becoming mine," Levi warned in a half-serious tone.

The clinking of the glasses filled the room, and the two of them began to discuss their detailed plans.

Although the two men knew that Emsgate's forces were being driven by their own self-interests, their

strength could not be underestimated. Both Levi and Martin understood the need for caution, ensuring

they would not fall victim to their own actions.

For now, their shared sentiment toward the matter remained unwavering—they were united as

brothers, ready to defend against external attacks.
