Chapter 165

Author: Jason Chord
"Ms. Trott, what did you say? One billion dollars? Are you saying Ms. Avila is ready to invest that much in me?"

"No kidding!" Maggie rolled her eyes.

Matthew was dumbfounded. Then, he immediately flushed with excitement, his body trembling.

One billion dollars! Good Lord! If he were to just put it in the bank and live off the interest, he would be set for life!

"I've said all I need to say. Think it over carefully. But remember my advice. Ms. Avila doesn't like delays. Act quickly, or you'll miss the once-in-a-lifetime chance to leap into greatness."

"Okay, okay. Thank you, Ms. Trott. I'll treat you to a scrumptious meal sometime."

Matthew hurriedly left the building and got into the car. He couldn't wait to call Jacob.

"How did it go? Did it work out?" Jacob asked.

From his tone, it was clear that Jacob was nervous, his voice slightly trembling with anticipation.

"Dad, file for bankruptcy immediately. Shut down the company and clear out all the junk."

Jacob was stunned. "Y

    "You're treating me to a meal?" Gideon asked."You saved me and stopped Matthew from assaulting me. Isn't it normal for me to thank you by treating you to a meal? Let's go." Elara gestured for him to follow.Rubbing his nose, Gideon felt a little puzzled. He couldn't figure out what she was up to.Since when did she become so polite? She even knew how to show gratitude, huh?They entered a high-end clubhouse and headed straight upstairs to the sixth floor.As they walked, Gideon sensed something wasn't quite right. The clubhouse was extremely luxurious, and the costs were undoubtedly sky-high. Elara couldn't possibly afford a private room on the sixth floor.A cacophony of loud laughter and voices filled the air when the door was pushed open."Ella, you're here!" A well-dressed young man approached her with a smile."And this must be Gideon! Mr. Snow, right? I've heard so much about you." The young man extended his hand toward Gideon.Gideon shook his hand, thinking it wou

    Elara's heart skipped a beat. For some reason, she suddenly felt a pang of guilt. She lowered her head and couldn't bring herself to look at Gideon.However, the rich heirs in the room were not about to let this slide.In the past, they had to look up to Gideon. Now that the Snow family had fallen, they were not going to miss the chance to humiliate him."Did I say you could leave?" One of the rich heirs stepped in front of Gideon to block his path."Move!" Gideon barked coldly.The heir was startled for a moment before flying into a rage. "Why the hell are you acting up? Do you think you're still the high-and-mighty heir of the Snow family?"With that, he swung his hand to slap Gideon across the face.Gideon caught the man's arm, and with a sudden, crushing grip, a loud crack echoed through the room as the man's arm shattered.The rich heir's scream, like the wailing of a slaughtered pig, filled the room.Everyone was stunned.They stared in shock at the man's mangled and tw

    "Cuff him!" the officer shouted sternly.Harold and the others looked on, pleased, while Elara was at a loss for what to do.Gideon was visibly displeased. Just as he was about to react, a cold voice rang out from outside the room, "What are you doing here?"Everyone turned to look.Harold was stunned for a moment. Then, he hurried forward. "Mr. Horne, it's you!"The newcomer was none other than Damian, the eldest son of the Horne family.Damian had been passing by and glanced into the private room. When he saw Gideon surrounded by police officers, his heart skipped a beat.The last time Gideon was arrested, the entire Goldspire was thrown into upheaval. If something like that happened again, the consequences would be unimaginable.Without hesitation, Damian stepped in to intervene. He cast a sidelong glance at Harold.He had heard of him before. Harold was a young entrepreneur and owner of a company in Goldspire. Although he might have been a promising youth, Damian didn't

    Elara was disappointed. Just a moment ago, she thought that the Horne family and the Snow family had genuinely established a strong relationship, which was why Damian had stepped in to help Gideon.She hadn't expected it was only because the Horne family was a shareholder in the clubhouse.Damian simply didn't want an incident on his turf. It wouldn't look good, after all."Get lost!" Damian barked coldly.Harold and the others didn't dare linger."Wait a minute!"Damian's sharp tone froze Harold in place. He shivered and braced himself to ask, "Is there anything else, Mr. Horne?""Take him with you." Damian pointed to the unconscious young man on the couch."Yes, yes, of course." Harold called out to his companions, and together, they carried the injured man out of the clubhouse.Elara also left with them.Once the room was empty, Damian dropped his intimidating demeanor and turned into an eager subordinate, grinning as he said, "How did I do, Gideon?""You're pretty quic

    Elara got into Damian's car."Ms. Seymour, where are you headed?" Damian asked."Home."Damian obediently started driving.Before long, she asked, "Mr. Horne, do you have cash on hand?""What's the matter? Are you short on money, Ms. Seymour?" he repliedShe said, "I've been eyeing a small apartment lately. The location is great, and I'm planning to buy it, but I'm a bit short on funds. Mr. Horne, could you lend me a little money?"He thought for a moment and asked, "How much?""300 thousand dollars," she said, holding up three fingers.Then, she added, "We may not have much of a connection, but for Gideon's sake, can you help me out just this once? I'll pay you back as soon as I can."Damian nodded. "No problem. It's 300 thousand dollars, not three million dollars. I can manage that. Let's exchange numbers, and you can send me your bank account details.""Thank you, Mr. Horne.""There's no need to be so formal," he replied casually while chuckling.For the Horne family, m

    "It's Matthew. Ms. Avila has a high opinion of him…" Marion trailed off."Bullshit!" Arnold exclaimed angrily. "That worthless Matthew! Why does Rachel think so highly of him?"Marion was speechless.Elara was completely bewildered. Could this all be a figment of her imagination?Noticing the situation from upstairs, Kyla was overjoyed."Mom, I don't want to go through with the divorce with Gideon," Elara said unexpectedly.Kyla's smile froze, while Arnold and Marion were dumbfounded."What nonsense are you saying, Ella?""Mom, just listen." Elara scrambled to come up with an excuse. "With the Carter family declaring bankruptcy, I have no reason to divorce Gideon.""I can find plenty of other eligible bachelors for you," Marion insisted."Then, hold off on that until you've found someone I actually like. For now, I won't divorce Gideon."Arnold nodded. "Ella, I support you."He gave Marion a stern look when she seemed like she wanted to speak up again. After the situation w

    "How did it happen?" Gideon asked."It was all that little bitch Kyla's doing! She pushed Ella down the stairs!" Marion ground her teeth in fury. "By the way, I'm calling the police to have that little bitch arrested. What she did was intentional harm, and she will be put in jail for it."Arnold halted Marion and said, "Wait! Let's not jump to any conclusions just yet. We don't know for sure if Kyla was the one who pushed her. We'll wait until Ella wakes up and get her side of the story."Marion's voice dripped with anger as she exclaimed, "How could you call yourself a father? Our daughter is in such a state, and yet you still defend that little bitch!"Gideon said, "Mrs. Seymour, Mr. Seymour is right. We need to figure this out clearly and avoid making false accusations. If Kyla was truly the one who pushed her, we can still involve the police at that time."Arnold said in a deep voice, "Keep quiet and don't make a fuss. This is a hospital."Marion felt extremely aggrieved.…

    Arnold called the attending doctor once more and said, "Doctor, it appears my daughter hasn't entirely lost her memory. She knows who he is!""Who is he?""He's my daughter's husband. They have filed for divorce and are currently in a cooling-off period.""I see."The attending doctor thought momentarily and then explained, "In my opinion, certain memories can be deeply ingrained and difficult to erase. Given that they are seeking a divorce, Ms. Seymour must have been resolute in her decision and determined to follow through, right?"Marion said, "Yes, my daughter couldn't wait to divorce him as soon as possible!""That's right, then. The matter of divorce is ingrained in Ms. Seymour's thoughts, and it holds great significance to her. It's a topic that she cannot forget easily, which explains why she still remembers the person she's in the process of divorcing. "Actually, this is good news. It's a breakthrough.""A breakthrough?""Yes. Next, we'll need this gentleman to assis

    Howard was in disbelief, as if he were stuck in a surreal dream. The fact that world-class champions could be so terrified was mind-boggling to him. Who exactly was Gideon?Willis and Lyle quickly turned around, visibly shaking and bending over respectfully. By some miracle, they had narrowly escaped the last encounter. But this time, there was no chance of survival. Any attempt to resist would surely result in their untimely demise."Greetings, Mr. Snow!"Gideon's voice cut through the tense silence with a half-smile, making both Willis's and Lyle's hairs stand on end. "Aren't you running anymore?""We wanted to run, but it seemed impossible to escape.""Why did you come here?"Gideon's tone filled with disgust. "Dominic is under my command. That's why I'm here!""What?" Willis and Lyle were shocked.They immediately forced a stiff laugh and said, "This is truly just a misunderstanding. We definitely wouldn't have gotten involved if we had known they were your people!"I'll o

    Howard felt a mix of fear and hesitation. He was really reluctant and said in a serious tone, "If we have to pull back the troops, we should take out those masters and transcendents first. That way, we can at least explain our actions. Otherwise, our royal family will lose all its credibility.""It's too late," Willis shook his head.Howard's hand instinctively reached for his communicator as he prepared to give orders to the front line. But in a split second, the wind and rain intensified, creating an oppressive and suffocating feeling that seemed to descend from the sky like a flood.The atmosphere became tense and heavy, as if dark storm clouds were looming over the city, ready to crush it under their weight."They're here!" Willis's and Lyle's expressions turned solemn.High above in the sky, an aircraft hovered steadily. Suddenly, a figure descended from it."What?" Howard exclaimed in shock.The figure had jumped down from a height of several hundred feet!Without hesitat

    The second round of carpet bombing arrived. However, due to the champions coalition forces taking shelter in the air-raid shelters, they managed to avoid the full impact of the disaster. Nevertheless, several air-raid shelters collapsed, burying those who were already injured and had limited mobility in tragic fatalities. The scene was absolutely devastating!After a continuous 30-minute bombardment, the mountain range was almost entirely flattened. Thick smoke enveloped the area, and flames rapidly spread.Helio experienced an intense sense of exhilaration."Surround them! Take it slow and pick them off one by one. Let them feel that crushing despair. So what if they are masters or transcendent? They're nothing but mere specks!"The fierce wind howled, carrying strands of dark vapor that swept across the entire area. However, this phenomenon went largely unnoticed, as most assumed it was merely smoke from the burning beacons signaling the war.On a distant mountain peak, the ch

    "Lord Howard, I think we need to take more drastic measures. This siege is getting pretty dull," one of the men said."Yeah, I agree," another chimed in."There's got to be some bloodshed!""Revenge for the eight major factions!"Howard, Willis, and Lyle were relaxing with drinks in hand, engaging in casual conversation."You guys can come up with a plan, but let's start by taking out 30,000 masters," Howard mentioned nonchalantly."Awesome!" The generals were thrilled.The battle was about to kick off.Shells started flying one after another, blanketing the entire area with firepower and pounding the whole mountain range."No!"The champions coalition forces were caught off guard.Despite their shock, the well-trained powerhouses did not panic. Under the guidance of the transcendent beings, the 180,000 masters joined together as a formidable force and unleashed their terrifying power, creating a massive storm.The impact of their explosions clashed with the energy of the c

    Douglas rolled his eyes and said, "Gideon, there actually isn't any deep-seated hatred between us. Why don't we take this opportunity to bury the hatchet?""What do you mean?""Do you have any champions under your command who are younger than 30 years old? You can lend them to my family."Gideon said, "Are you planning to recruit outside help to participate in the Martial Arts Tournament? Is that even allowed?"Douglas answered, "It wasn't allowed in the past, but it's permitted for this time round. The Foxhall royal family fought hard for this change, as their young leader's death has left them with a lack of capable successors. They have no choice but to seek help from outside."Moreover, the participants in this tournament are all familiar faces from the previous one, which can be quite dull. So when the Foxhall royal family suggested inviting outsiders to compete, the other royal families simply agreed."What do you say? Do you have any skilled young champions in your command

    In any case, Douglas took a brief moment to gather his thoughts before saying, "I've heard rumors about the Jaeger royal family having powerful secret weapons. It's probably why they're so comfortable living deep in Kitherglen."Did you know, even the Nevitt royal family, who hold the highest rank, didn't select Kitherglen as their territory? They opted for the region surrounding Solaris instead."In the heart of Kitherglen lies many unknown and perilous dangers. Rumors say there are monstrous beasts there that cannot be found elsewhere. These beasts can easily overpower masters and even wipe out transcendents.""Sir, that's correct," Ian confirmed. "Cipher managed to capture three of those creatures in the depths of Kitherglen. But it came at a great cost, as we lost valuable members in the process."Gideon perked up with interest. "If there's any possibility, I want them brought here for me to examine.""Consider it done," Ian replied. He promptly sent a message to Cipher headqu

    "Gideon, I advise you not to go too far. I am royalty. You should know how high my status is! How dare you make me kneel? This is outrageous! "Since you're also from Dasovia, you should know that you should respect the royal family and even hold it in awe! It is you who should be on your knees!" Douglas ranted.He was extremely angry, but he could not do anything about it as he was firmly pinned to the ground.Gideon sat with his legs crossed, swirling a glass of red wine in his hand and smiling. "I have to admire you. You're a prisoner now, yet you're still so full of yourself."Douglas snorted coldly, "Gideon, this humiliation won't last long. But you've caused a huge disaster. My family will definitely take action and gather hundreds of thousands of troops. "Even though you have 180,000 masters and 30,000 transcendents, they'll be like paper in front of a fully armed army. They won't withstand a single blow! If you're smart, release me right away and come with me to surrender

    "What?" Howard and the others were really mad.Even though a lot of powerful masters and transcendents had been taken out, the rest of the forces were still in good shape. They were still backing up the Chapman royal family. Now that six of these factions were completely gone, it looked like Mullong Dragons and Thunderbolt were bound to meet the same fate of being wiped out as well. Howard and the others were grinding their teeth in frustration.But then Willis said, "Actually, this could work in our favor. We were just worried about not being able to make a move on the battlefield, right? So let's use this to force Dominic to show up.""What do you mean?""Let's send out the troops right away to surround those masters and transcendents. That should bring Dominic and his crew running."Lyle thought for a second and nodded. "Yeah, that’s actually a pretty smart move!"Howard agreed right away and gave the order. Before they knew it, 300,000 men were on the move.Among the eight

    It couldn't be Gideon, right?Although Ruby knew that Gideon had considerable power and could make Geoffrey submit to him, it was too astonishing to conquer so many world-class champions. If Gideon could achieve this, he could directly establish a country and become its ruler.Why would he return to Dasovia and stay cooped up in the small Goldspire? Who could it be, then? Ruby was also very puzzled. The two sisters each had their own thoughts and left Beaker Island.…The Chapman royal family was still moving. Finally, after three days, all 300,000 troops were assembled. The forces of the Blood Demons and Thunder Gods also arrived in full. In total, there were 500,000 men.Among them, the number of masters added up to 30,000, and the number of transcendents totaled up to 10,000!The Nine Provinces of Dasovia were extremely vast. Among them, Dalhurst was the largest, with an area equivalent to that of two other provinces. However, two-thirds of it was occupied by mountains and r
