Soon, Cleo appeared wearing a long white dress, a trench coat, and high heels. She looked noble and elegant. She strutted into the main hall with a charming smile, bowed slightly to Leo Sainsbury who stood in front of her, and said, “Lord Leo, it’s been a while.” Leo's face was a little gloomy. When he saw Cleo, he squeezed out a smile and said, “Miss Cleo Lovelace, it’s nice to see you again.” Cleo chuckled and said directly, “Lord Leo, I’m here today to discuss with you the chief god and new god. I wonder if it’s convenient to talk now.” Hearing that, Leo frowned and said, “It's convenient. Please go ahead.” After saying that, Leo said to the platinum guards at his side, “Show Miss Cleo to her seat.” Soon, Cleo took her seat and said to Leo, who sat on his platinum throne, “Lord Leo, I think you should already know about the Underground Bounty Society. The mission this time has a very high bounty, and it’s completely aimed at you. I wonder what you think about it.” Hmph
Hearing that, Cleo frowned and thought, ‘This Leo isn’t ambitious at all.’ However, for the sake of the Lovelace family, Cleo forced a smile and said, “Lord Leo, that is for the future. Right now, we should join forces against Philip Clarke, right?” Leo frowned, looked at Cleo, and said, “What do you suggest? As you should know, if I lose this opportunity, all dealings between us will go up in smoke. Therefore, I hope that you can represent the Lovelace family and try your best to help me.” Cleo said, “But of course. The Lovelace family will always stand on your side.” She added, “This matter is actually very simple. We just need to issue the same bounty mission. As for the Clarke family, I’ll think of ways to delay them.” Leo raised his brow and said, “If we do that, won’t that boost the power and prestige of the Underground Bounty Society instead?” Cleo smiled and said, “You’ve misunderstood, Lord Leo. At this rate, all the bounty hunters of the society will be out on the
The Underground Bounty Society simultaneously posted the updates of two missions and increased the reward of the first mission to two billion dollars! Instantly, this two billion dollar bounty mission swept through the entire Underground Bounty Society and the entire Western underworld! The main point was that the updated bounty mission was no longer targeted at the Underground Bounty Society. Even other forces above ground could take up the mission! That was right, anyone could participate! As long as one had the guts and strength, one could participate! This time, all the large and small forces in the West geared up and held emergency meetings to discuss whether to take action. Of course, after a short meeting, 70 percent of these large and small forces chose to join the bounty team. For a while, the call to take down Leo Sainsbury swept through the entire West! What was even more frightening was that after the mission was released, the Sacred Halls of the West that r
Leo frowned and yelled, “Enough! Stop your compassionate act in front of me! If you really care about Father, you wouldn’t be secretly working with the Clarke family and the Underground Bounty Society to go against me!” Hearing this, Amos frowned. He was really unaware of this because he had been here for four days. Seeing his bewildered look, Leo laughed more blatantly and said, “You’re really good at acting!” After saying that, Leo looked at the triangular stone door and said, “Father, may I see you?” Half a beat later, the door slowly opened. Seeing this scene, Leo's face was full of excitement with a sense of superiority. He looked at Amos and said, “Amos, look at this. I'm Father’s favorite and the future candidate for the position of chief god.” After saying that, Leo swaggered through the stone door. Amos stood at the door and watched as the door slowly closed. Sadness and helplessness appeared in his eyes. He had stood guard here for four days. Yet his fat
Hearing this, Zeus frowned. He stared at Leo and said angrily, “Leo, you’re the most outstanding son of the Sainsbury family and my favorite son. Do you know the implications of your words just now?” Leo was startled and quickly defended himself, saying, “Father, every word I said is true. Amos is working with outside forces to suppress me for the position of the next chief god! Amos is very ambitious and wants to take over your position!” Boom! Suddenly, Zeus raised his hand. Countless dazzling blue and white lightning bolts sparked from his palms, which formed a net that wrapped around Leo. Zeus lifted Leo and scolded, “Enough! Leo, the last thing I want to see is you two brothers turning against each other! It’s just the position of chief god. Whether you or Amos gets it, it’s an honor for the Sainsbury family! Don't think I don't know what you and Amos have been up to these days! Get out!” After shouting, Zeus raised his hand and threw Leo out. Leo fell to the ground, sha
“Where’s the exact location?” Philip quickly asked. Georgina fiddled around and said, “The location shown by the IP address is in a forest northwest of the country. Their headquarters is divided into three places. One is in a forest in the northwest, one in a modern city on the east coast, and the last one seems to be near Cochly Mountain in the east.” Hearing the geographic coordinates of these three locations, Philip’s eyes became more solemn. The Lovelace family was really bold to divide themselves into three base camps and completely lock the three directions of the country. This was a big plan! Especially the one near Cochly Mountain. Was it aiming at the stargate or the Nonagon? Perhaps the Lovelace family was connected to the Nonagon in secret? “Send me the specific positioning coordinates. I’ll return to the country immediately.” Philip decided and said. However, Georgina shook her head and said, “Mr. Clarke, I can't get you the most accurate geographical coor
Roger walked in, looking much better. His complexion was rosier, but he was thinner. Philip looked up with an aloof expression and asked, “Are you feeling better?” Roger smiled kindly, glanced at his son, and said, “Much better. It's the first time you’re showing concern for me.” Philip frowned and said stubbornly, “You think too much. I don't care about you.” Seeing this, Fennel shook his head helplessly. He bowed slightly to Roger and said, “Patriarch Clarke, are you sure you want to do this?” Roger walked over, looked at Fennel with admiration, and said, “I’m sure. The Lovelace family's affairs are the Clarke family's affairs. The affairs of the Lovelace family are related to the future direction of the world. Time is running out for us, and I want to find out what the Lovelace family has been up to over the years. I also hope to see some old friends whom I haven't seen for a long time.” Fennel frowned and asked, “I thought you didn’t know much about the Lovelace family
Philip frowned, looked at Roger, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said, “Then I’ll become stronger. Sooner or later, I’ll get rid of the Lovelace family! Not for the sake of your great righteousness but for Wynn’s sake!” Roger smiled and said, “You’re quite devoted.” Philip glanced at Roger. The latter thought for a moment and said, “I already know what happened to Wynn. In fact, this matter has little to do with the Lovelace family. It was Wynn’s decision. If she wants to understand the Lovelace family, become a part of them, or even get her hands on them, she must forget everything from the past and completely integrate into the Lovelace family. When you left the country to come here, Wynn once approached me to discuss this matter. This is what she left behind for you.” With that said, Roger took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Philip. He got up, patted Philip on the shoulder, and said, “Read it carefully. Besides your mother and me, Wynn is definitely th
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
“I won’t be joining your guild, but I don’t mind being a spectator. At least I can watch the fun. I know that you’re quite strong, so you don’t need me. As long as nothing unexpected happens, I don’t think you’ll face a problem.” Philip smiled indifferently, quite confident that nothing much would happen. The overall strength of the Celestial Palace had improved significantly, so they really had nothing to worry about. Jamie was relieved to hear that. In that case, he could rest assured.… The guild competition officially kicked off, and everyone was ready to battle it out. The battles were not something that simply required strength to resolve. Occasionally, the competitors required tactics too. As Alain was feeling anxious, his reinforcement finally arrived at the scene. The hooded man turned up with some potions, ready to carry out his task. “Hey, you’re finally here. I thought I wouldn’t see you again.” Alain was worried. He knew that he was in a precarious situati
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
