"Alexander Kane?" The operator was alarmed to have heard the name.Half a year ago, the mayor specifically ordered that if someone called Alexander Kane called the number, she had to transfer the call to him immediately.This was the mayor's absolute order. It was of utmost importance."I—I'll trans
In less than 20 minutes, the door to Amber's office was opened once more.The mayor of Ol' Mare, Lewis Christian, arrived."M—Mister Christian?" Hugo still sat on the couch with his legs crossed, mocking Alexander and Amber. When he saw Lewis enter, he was so frightened that he shuddered. He almost
Thud!Hugo's legs turned to jelly, and he instantly knelt on the floor. He began to sob. "M—Mister Crowdon… This has nothing to do with me! I was just following Mister Burke's orders!"Hugo only got to his current position because he was great at observing people. He understood the situation.Lewis
Lewis was the mayor. All he needed was to say the word, and the special forces team would be on it.In less than two hours, Hugo and Ethan were arrested. With the experienced special forces team before them, they immediately came clean of the crimes that they committed, especially the sanctions they
"Amber." When everyone left, Alexander took Amber's hand and led her to the couch. He looked at her gently. "The problem has been solved. Are you feeling better?"Amber sighed a little and forced a smile. Multiple incidents hit her consecutively for the past few days, and she could barely handle the
What was he trying to do? He wanted his wife, no doubt.The fat man swept a glance at Alexander and sneered. "You ran quite quickly. Who knew you'd be a fighter."Then, he raised his right hand once more and said viciously, "His wife knocked into me, yet he wants to pretend that it's not her fault.
It was 9 p.m., and the bar—which was less than 300 meters away from the spa hotel—was jam-packed with people.The competition between bars at the foot of the mountain in Wakefield was extremely tough. Almost every bar had its own band. Occasionally, they would invite more popular bands to perform.T
The bottle of red wine, La Mer, in Sean's hand, had about 17 percent alcohol. It was a high percentage compared to other red wines.In a normal business enterprise, a bottle of La Mer would cost about 30000 dollars. Since they were in a rather touristy bar, the price would be marked up double. A bot
"Kill!" As Alexander stepped onto the Empyrean Slope, a monstrous wave of killing intent crashed into his mind."Hmph, you think you're the only one fierce?" he muttered coldly, unleashing his own killing intent to counter the assault.He was the Temple Lord Kane, a man who had tread through mountai
At Battleforge Summit, a place where peril lurked at every turn.As the group continued their ascent, they lost a few more members. The ancient battlefield was riddled with deadly traps and poisonous remnants. The pools along the way harbored creatures so aggressive, it was clear they were not of mo
"Ah…" Alexander yawned, waiting patiently. Without a proper map, he would probably take half a day searching for directions. Battleforge Summit, though seemingly small, had a complex terrain.Time was slipping away, and Maxwell and Crimson Wyrm Master finally reached an agreement. The two-meter-wide
Early in the next morning, Maxwell's group of 40—the weakest among them a Lord of War—gathered quietly by the lake at the back of a mountain, somewhere in Shielded Valley. They stood in silence, their expressions grave.Though many had never ventured to Battleforge Summit, they had all heard of its
"Enemy attack!"Brenda sprang to her feet, drawing her sharp blade. Tensions had been high lately, and everyone's nerves were on edge."Perfect timing! I've been waiting to kill him sooner or later!"Alexander's killing intent surged, and his battle spirit ignited.Crimson Wyrm Master was destined t
As soon as Alexander asked the question, a heavy silence fell over the chamber. The three Guardians exchanged uneasy glances, but no one uttered a word."Never mind if you don't want to say anything, I'm just curious," said Alexander, sitting down cross-legged and closing his eyes to heal his wounds
"As you wish!"Crimson Wyrm Master channeled a furious surge of power into his spear, standing firm as he built up his momentum. Having fought to this point, he knew he had to unleash his most devastating attack."Here it comes!"All eyes were locked on the impending clash, each person holding their
"You fool! Don't think you'll be the last one laughing!"The Second and Third Guardians charged forward, joining forces to deflect Crimson Wyrm's relentless assault. Even with their combined strength, they could barely withstand a few moves."Do you really think we're without reinforcements?" roared
"Heh. I wouldn't dare accept your gift!" Maxwell scoffed, his voice steady despite the looming battle. Politeness had no place in this confrontation."Oh, but I'm sure you'll appreciate it," sneered Crimson Wyrm Master, his eyes gleaming with malice as he pointed at Darko, who lay crumpled on the gr
