"Bro, you are so f*cking amusing. No one has ever dared to talk to me like this. You are the first one." Dick lit another cigarette. Taking in a deep breath, he said slowly.As he was saying this, two of his men closed the door of the bar.As it was daytime, the bar was closed. Philip raised his brows. He glanced at the surrounding people. They were all geared up and ready to fight. All of them had a cold smile on their faces.Lynn was also very anxious. She did not expect that it would be a mistake to look for Philip for help. This idiot dared to talk to Dick like that.‘Get lost if you have no money. Why even stay here pretending to be cool?’ "Philip, if you don't have any money, just leave. I don't need you to get in the way," Lynn said coldly.Kyle, Jacob, and the others also followed suit."Damn, after such a long time, this idiot doesn't even have a penny and he’s still trying to be cool in front of Dick.""Dick, I don't know this guy. He has nothing to do with us."
Lynn and the others watched Nino lead his people into the bar.This was one of the underground bosses of Riverdale!The power and capital behind Nino were even more powerful and terrifying!Kyle was so terrified that he had goosebumps all over his skin. His mouth was trembling as he said, "We have to leave quickly. If Master Nino catches us, we will definitely be dead!"Kyle was scared out of his wits. He was only fortunate to have seen Master Nino show off his power before!Harry, who once caused a disturbance in Riverdale, had knelt and spoke in front of Master Nino.After witnessing this scene, Kyle told himself in his heart that if he were to provoke someone, it better not be Master Nino.He was too strong!Moreover, his methods were extremely vicious!Harry, who had been previously undefeated in the hundred rounds of underground black boxing, did not listen to Master Nino's words and refused to fight with fake punches. In the end, he had his hands and feet broken before g
"Last time, that Lynn you mentioned was pretty good. She’s so full of life. I also brought her over this time and the guest appointed her to accompany them," Nino said with a lustful tone. "Hearing from you, she also has a cousin. Wynn something? She’s a famous beauty in our city, a young married woman. Bring her here too. Maybe the guests will like her too. Two sisters... Surely there will be interest."Dick immediately understood and replied, “Master Nino, don't worry. That little girl owes us 100,000 dollars. I heard her cousin is also short on money for her daughter’s surgery recently.""Very good. Do it now." Master Nino laughed.Philip frowned. He thought that only Lynn was involved with this. Unexpectedly, they wanted to drag Wynn into this matter as well!Then, they should not blame him for being rude!As such, Philip did not leave. He stopped, turned around, and walked to Nino with a cold expression on his face."I say, what's the problem? Why haven't you handled this ki
Theo quickly said, “I’ll be there right away, Mr. Clarke.”Once he hung up, Theo took a sharp intake of breath. He was somewhat nervous and even a bit panicked.Did Nino Gil get on Mr. Clarke’s bad side?Well, he had it coming!Over the years, Theo had long since gotten fed up with Nino. The latter was too meddlesome for his own good.Besides, Nino had grown unhappy with his lot too. He was already pulling all sorts of strings in secret to mess with Theo’s territory.Theo just let it slide so far because both of them came from equally powerful backgrounds. Any wars between them should be fought in secret, or so Theo thought.Today, though, Nino had clearly poked the hornets’ nest.In that case, Theo figured, why not give him an extra push for good measure? That way, he could put an end to Nino for good.With that in mind, Theo immediately made a phone call.In the blink of an eye, at least a dozen people leaped to action as a result of that call!All of them were Theo’s clos
The air in the bar right now was eerily cold and heavy.All of a sudden!One of Nino’s lackeys ran over to his boss and whispered into Nino’s ear, “Master Nino, Mr. Thomas’ secretary, Mr. Thane is here. He says he needs to meet you urgently.”“Mr. Thane?” Nino immediately leaped to his feet, beside himself with excitement. “What are you waiting for? Let’s go greet Mr. Thane!”His lackeys opened a path in front of him.Nino was clearly exhilarated. After all, that was the Mr. Julian Thane, chief secretary to the richest man in the city, George Thomas.It was quite the honor to have him here on Nino’s turf!There was a saying in Riverdale. Where Mr. Thane went, there went George Thomas’s will.However…Before Nino could approach Julian, the latter had already walked into the bar with the young blonde-haired, blue-eyed secretary in tow.Who would dare stand in his way?“Oh my, Mr. Thane! It’s been such a long time, how rare to see you here! What winds of fortune blew you here
Nino’s expression changed. Having plied in this trade for so many years, he had seen people from all walks of life. He knew them all.Today, however, he felt as though he was facing a completely unfathomable enemy.Philip’s aura was just too unique. It exerted a pressure on Nino unlike any other.It was almost as though this plain-looking man had a very exceptional background.,No, not almost. He definitely did!That was the feeling Nino got from Philip after he spoke earlier.Still, Nino was no spineless coward himself. He chuckled twice coldly and said, “Are you sure you want to go against me, Master Clarke? Yes, Mr. Thane is here, but don’t forget, I’m a leader of the Riverdale underworld. No matter how much power Mr. Thane’s boss has, he might want to reconsider before he removes me.”That was right. Nino was talking about George Thomas.The way he saw it, Philip was only acting so bold now because he had the support of George Thomas’s money and reputation.If they really
Impressive scene, was it not?However, that was not the full extent of it yet!It happened out of nowhere!Suddenly, there were a few loud crashes in the bar!Seven or eight people came flying out of the corridors on either side of the entrance!They were all Nino’s men!A group of brawlers dressed in black suits surged into the main hall of the bar!Leading the pack was none other than Tiger Zander, with his well-built body and an air of violence about him!All by himself, he faced off against a dozen thugs, all armed with bats!These men were the ones Nino had tasked with guarding the door.When faced with Tiger, though, none of them stood a chance. They were all beaten flat onto the floor!Nino looked furious when he heard the commotion. He glared at the door and saw Theo walk out from behind the crowd slowly, wearing a smile that seriously ticked him off.“Zander! What are you up to? This is my turf! Why did you bring so many of your men here?!”Nino was beside himself
Master Zach.The power and authority he wielded were beyond the imagination!Even Nino, to this day, had no idea just how far Master Zach's influence spread.Once, Master Zach showed Nino just a tiny hint of what he could do, and that was enough to make Nino respect and follow him with all his heart.There was an A-list celebrity named Elsa Jordan. She was practically a goddess to legions of fans, and she had a lot of say in the world of showbiz as well. Plenty of famous directors and entrepreneurs gave her the best seat at their tables.Even someone like had to keep a careful smile on her face when she spoke to Master Zach back then.Apparently, Master Zach had relationships with many female celebrities in showbiz. There were all sorts of rumors and unwritten rules around him.The internet was rife with them.So what happened in the end? Old Master Zach just had one thing to say. “If anyone has anything more to say, I’ll deal with you myself!”Every bad rumor about Master Zac
Yule was amazed by the person in the portrait, not expecting to see such a beautiful woman. He was somewhat skeptical after seeing the drawing. He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life. Could it be the other party’s imagination? “Don’t worry, Yule. This woman is definitely real. I have an eye for beauty, so I’d never make a mistake.” Yule nodded at his subordinate's suggestive expression. Even if he was unreliable in other aspects, he would never mess up in this area. He was notorious for hanging out in various entertainment venues and was not a good guy. Yule quickly made copies of the woman’s portrait and spread the news everywhere. He looked forward to meeting this beautiful woman as soon as possible. In the meantime, Aslan finished his meal and walked on the streets idly. Yule stood on the streets, confident that he would find the woman with so many people helping him. “Hey, what's going on? Why is Foxy’s portrait posted everywhere? Has someone discovered he
“No matter what I do next, you and your people just need to go with the flow. If you agree, I’ll do my best to take care of the beast problem immediately. Of course, you don't have to worry about my source of information. My lips are sealed on this topic.” Yule quickly reached an agreement with these people. Then, Yule arrived at a remote house where all his men were hiding. He asked his men to do something unlawful for him, and they entered the beast forest by mistake because they wanted to escape justice, but they ran into Foxy by accident. Foxy realized from birth that she and her kind had a grudge against humans, but she was an inexperienced youngling, after all. She did not know much about humans and failed to notice their ulterior motives. The other party took note of Foxy’s appearance and made a detour back to safety. Yule arrived at his subordinate’s house anxiously. “Tell me everything you know about that person again. I have some information but it’s not compreh
“Let’s do it this way. We can treat this as a test. If he can solve this problem, we’ll give him a chance.” “That’s a good idea. The beasts have always been a thorn in our sides. It’ll be great if we can take care of this once and for all.” “Since he looks so confident, maybe he can really resolve this. We might as well make use of him to get rid of this problem.” “The beasts have been fighting with us for many years. We can save a lot of trouble if this plan succeeds.” Everyone expressed their opinion and seemed very keen to rely on Yule to solve this difficult problem. Ten minutes were soon up, and Yule quickly returned to the room. He looked very relaxed and even had a drink in his hand. “So, gentlemen, are you done with the discussion? Do you have a better suggestion for my future development?” Yule smiled triumphantly, obviously certain of his victory. As he expected, everyone chose to give in. After all, this was not something anyone could do. Yule would be the best
Yule felt very smug after seeing everyone’s reactions. Clearly, these people could only rely on him to take care of this problem. “Since you’re so curious, let me explain. Indeed, someone is controlling the situation behind the scenes. She can easily control the beasts with her ability. However, I don’t know the woman’s identity. Maybe she’s a powerful being or just an ordinary person. Who knows?” Yule's subordinates were the ones who told him what they saw that day. “I know that woman’s appearance, so I know what to do. You don’t have to worry about it.” Everyone glanced at each other with a grim look, wondering if they should believe Yule. After all, Yule knew something they did not. “Hehe, I just wanted to tell you my plans, that’s all.” Yule wanted to take control of the initiative. The elders and people in charge looked worried. They knew exactly what Yule wanted. “I want a certain authority. Of course, it should be higher than my father’s limit. As you know, I’ve al
Compared to the money they earned at Deadly Arena, the accommodation fee was nothing. Therefore, many people chose to stay in the living quarters provided by Deadly Arena and thought the environment was quite good. The people of Deadly Arena knew about the crisis they were facing. Something felt wrong, so they had to pay attention to it. “Don’t you find the beasts acting strangely this time? They didn’t seem interested in our things but simply left after giving us a warning.” “Yeah, I think something is wrong too. There must be a secret behind it. We have to figure it out.” The people in charge of Deadly Arena gathered for a meeting over this major incident. Yule looked at everyone with disdain as if he thought they were worried over nothing. “The beasts obviously recognized our strength, so they backed away. Stop worrying over nothing.” Yule had always thought highly of himself and looked down on everything. Hearing this, everyone scowled and wished they could teach Yule
“Foxy was the one controlling the beast stampede earlier. The beasts would've razed this place to the ground if I hadn't stopped them in time.” Philip shook his head helplessly. The fence around Deadly Arena had been flattened during the stampede, enough to prove how terrible the earlier battle was. “But of course!” Foxy nodded smugly. The people here would probably be in bad shape if she had not stopped the attack in time. Philip smiled and shook his head. “This young lady is a force to be reckoned with. She simply had to blow a flute to control all the beasts.""I'm sure that all the guilds will try every means to capture Foxy if they find out about her ability,” Lyle said, envious of her ability. Aslan sighed awkwardly. As a monster beast, he had no ability in other areas at all. He could only use his brawn to intimidate others. As if he felt the difference in strength, Aslan lowered his head and was too embarrassed to say another word. Foxy chatted with everyone happil
Aslan was surprised to see Philip bringing a petite and beautiful woman back all of a sudden. “Hey, Philip, where did you pick up such a beautiful woman? I'm so envious.” “You sure have luck with women, Philip. You picked up such a beautiful woman just by going out. It’d be great if I have such luck too.” Aslan and Lyle started teasing Philip, annoying him so much that he almost knocked them out. “Cut the crap. Her name is Foxy, and she's our new teammate. Come with me, everyone. We need to find a safe place to discuss our next plans.” Philip quickly took everyone away. He looked very excited, obviously looking forward to his next plan. Everyone nodded excitedly at Philip’s appearance. They were also curious, wondering what Philip was going to do. Since the beasts had retreated, everyone returned to the lounge area for a break without further ado. Deadly Arena would also be closed for the day and reopen the next day. The inn Philip chose for them was quite luxurious, an
Since their master was dead, these subordinates had to approach the people of Deadly Arena for help. They would be bullied without a master to take charge. They finally found a chance to join a strong employer. Now that he was dead, everyone was at a loss for what to do. “What? He’s dead? This is too much. Find out who those people are. I don’t care which force they belong to or who they have behind them, we need to wipe them out!” This person was Amos, the second in command of Deadly Arena. He knew how to deal with such provocation. “These people are too bold to touch a member of my family. Everyone knows that our children are powerful and undefeatable on this battlefield.” The second in command was annoyed and not in the mood to deal with this incident. His anger over this matter added to his initial agitation. His subordinates were surprised to see his irritation. “What’s wrong, Amos? Why are you so upset? Are the beasts up to something again?” As the second-in-comma
On the battlefield, Aslan was puzzled by the beasts’ sudden retreat. “Maybe the beasts are scared shitless by our strong combat power and decided to give up.” “You got that right. I killed several of them at once and looked really cool.” “But I have a feeling that the beasts this year are much stronger and have greater potential.” Everyone spoke excitedly. The people who killed many beasts had returned for their rewards. They thought highly of the rewards and could not wait to take all the treasures of Deadly Arena.… “Can you control the beasts from a distance?” Philip asked curiously. Foxy nodded. “I can control these beasts no matter where I am. It’s my individual talent.” Since everything went as planned, Philip pondered what to do next. “You should come with me. I’ll tell you about my next plan in detail.” Philip decided to bring Foxy into Deadly Arena. Foxy nodded seriously. She trusted Philip very much and never doubted him at all. He felt a little embarra
