"I'll do as you say. I'll tell you everything in detail!"
Lin Yi's appropriate response made a good impression on evalist, and he personally led Lin Yi out of the tarmac to his study room.
To be able to come into the study for a coffee and chat meant that evalist really did treat Lin Yi as a close friend. This was a private place, and people who didn't have a good relationship wouldn't have the right to come in.
"Esther, that's what happened. Justina had awakened her mermaid blood, so her thoughts and spirit changed, and she died on the mermaid Island ..."
Lin Yi briefly explained what happened between Mike and Justina, filtering out a lot of details in the middle. Evalist still felt like he was listening to a fantasy story, his face full of disbelief.
"There's such a thing? The legendary mermaids really existed! You even want to seduce Mike to commit suicide?"
Evalist gathered his emotions and suppressed the anger in his heart. He snorted coldly and said,""Damn Justina, she didn't even let Mike off! It's all thanks to you this time, 08, or else the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
"It's my duty! It's not worth mentioning!"
Lin Yi said casually."Esther, we haven't finished talking about the people who wanted to kill Mike. Who are they?"
He'd already guessed that these people might be from the Saint realm, but he still needed confirmation from evalist himself.
Evalist wanted to ask about the underwater torpedo attack, but since Lin Yi asked about the main issue, he let the small stuff go.
"Actually, you should have heard of the person or organization that wanted to assassinate Mike! Their influence in Europe is like the sun at its zenith!"
Lin Yi's guess was confirmed with what evalist said.
"The new sanctuary organization. The black butterfly must have collected information about them and even had dealings with them, right?"
Evalist glanced at Lin Yi, who nodded slightly before continuing,""The cause of this incident was a dispute over the sea routes. The new sanctuary organization has marked out a large area of the sea and declared that it is their territory. No one is allowed to enter it without permission."
" 08, as you know, our family relies on shipping to survive. Many of the sea areas marked by the new sanctuary organization are important sea routes for our family. Even our transit Island Supply station is within their scope. This has a huge impact on our family!"
"Our stefford family naturally couldn't agree to such an overbearing matter, but after negotiations and even fighting, our family was inferior and could only choose to back down ..."
Evalist had a helpless and bitter smile on his face. He sighed softly and said,""In a battle of sea routes, if you lose, then you lose. There's nothing more to say. If you can't afford to provoke them, then just take a detour! But the new sanctuary organization is insatiable, and they recently asked us to hand over a port in the sea!"
"That's the lifeblood of our Steffey family. If we hand it over, the entire family will either be destroyed or suffer a disastrous decline. We'll enter a period of weakness and basically have no hope of revival!"
"No matter what, the family can not agree to this. I've also told the new sanctuary organization that we'd rather fight to the death than compromise! As a result, they took revenge on me!"
Lin Yi was suspicious,"if that's the case, they could've just come to kill you. You'd be dead and everything would be over. Why would they go around in a big circle to deal with Mike?"
"Because they want to force me to submit, not Rob me directly! After all, they won't openly go against the law and take things by force. "
Evalist sighed and said,""But their patience is limited. The first few assassinations were just to scare me, so the people around Mike suffered more casualties, including the two masters of your Black Butterfly organization! But this time, the new Holy region seems to be serious!"
Lin Yi nodded. Central was supporting this new sanctuary because they were worried about the peace agreement they signed before!
After all, central wasn't the only big power in the common world, and Lin Yi's side was also very strong. Central didn't want to go against the law if they could, and it wouldn't do them any good to attract Lin Yi's attention.
But now, it seemed that the new sanctuary had lost their patience. Perhaps the port of the Steffey family was more meaningful to the center, and it might even be more convenient for them to build a new underwater base.
"After you went after Mike last time, the new sanctuary sent us an ultimatum! He warned us that if we don't hand over the port, we'll kill Mike within a month! Then, it's the important members of our family ... Of course, I'm the last one!"
"You ..." Evalist was angry and helpless."The torpedo attack you suffered is the beginning of the new sanctuary organization's official assassination! 08, I beg you, you must protect Mike. You can't let anything happen to him!"
"Don't worry, Esther. I told you that it's my duty! I'll definitely do my best to ensure Mike's safety. "
Lin Yi nodded seriously. It didn't matter if the guy was central or not, he'd keep Mike safe since he'd agreed.
"Father!"
As the two of them were talking, Mike's voice came from outside the study.
Evalist was slightly stunned. What was artil doing? Didn't he ask him to send Mike back to be put in detention? Why did he come here?
With artil's strength, it was impossible for Mike to resist!
"Chief, young master Mike has a request for an audience. I can't stop him!"
Artil knocked on the door a few times, his voice sounding a little helpless.
"Come in!"
Evalist's face was as dark as water as he gave Lin Yi an apologetic look before looking at the door coldly.
Artil pushed open the door to the study and walked in with Mike.
It was only then that evalist knew why artil had said that he could not stop Mike.
Because Mike was holding a small knife in his hand and pressed it against his own neck with a determined expression on his face. It was as if he would die for you if you didn't agree!
Artil could snatch the knife, but he couldn't keep an eye on Mike, so he could only let him come over to see evalist.
"Nonsense! Mike, what are you trying to do? Do you know what the situation is right now? Don't you know that the clan is at a life and death juncture?"
When evalist saw this, he was instantly enraged. He raised his hand and grabbed a thick book beside him, throwing it at Mike.
The kid dodged nimbly, easily avoiding the book, and then shouted in an even louder voice,""Father! If you continue to be like this, I won't need the new sanctuary to kill me. I'll kill myself. Do you believe me?"
