"Could Julius be lying?" Everyone exchanged puzzled glances, unable to comprehend the situation. Even Rufus appeared surprised. Reston Rever was considered a legendary figure in the Black Dragon Army, sharing camaraderie with Rufus in battles that defended their homeland and achieved greatness together. However, he disappeared ten years ago during the upheaval in Oakvale. A charred corpse with Reston's insignia was found in the midst of the blaze. Later, a ceremonial tomb was erected in the cemetery to commemorate him.To their surprise, the familiar name resurfaced after many years, and even more shockingly, the person was alive. What in the world was happening? "Surprised, aren't you?" Julius grinned. "When I first saw Reston, I was just as shocked as you are now. I never expected a person declared dead for ten years to stand before me alive. "Curiosity got the better of me, so I had a good chat with him. Do you want to know what I found out?" After scanning the crowd,
After Julius finished saying that, Dustin finally spoke. "Uncle Julius, we already know about your experience. You only did this as others misled you. "However, I only want to know where Reagan is. Plus, where did you hide Dragon Guard's remnants?"Despite saying so much, Julius did not talk about the main point at all."Honestly, I don't know about Reagan's whereabouts despite having partnered with him." Julius shook his head."You don't know?" Dustin furrowed his eyebrows.This meant that Dustin had basically wasted all his efforts."Don't get anxious. Although I don't know where Reagan is, I can contact him." Julius changed the topic. "I agreed to meet him somewhere after succeeding. We'll go there to discuss matters.""Really? Where did you guys plan to meet?" Dustin furrowed his eyebrows."Are you sure you want me to answer now?" Julius scanned his surroundings meaningfully."Come and help Uncle Julius inside!" A few guards immediately appeared with Dustin's shout. The
After all, Albert was the one in power once they were in jail. Even if he wanted to do something to them, nobody would know.Even if Albert killed them, he could come up with an excuse that they had taken their own lives."Don't worry. I'm only asking. I don't mean any harm," Albert said indifferently. "Of course, don't blame me for being ruthless if you guys dare to resist. Bring them away!"With his order, the Draken Guardians immediately tied Elijah and the others with Draken Rope.Draken Rope was specially made for martial artists. Even grandmaster martial artists would find it difficult to break free from it.Plus, even if Elijah could break free from it, he didn't dare to do so.Albert was way more powerful than everyone else. Thus, Elijah and the group knew they would be worse off if they provoked Albert.Thus, they could only pray Albert would keep his word and not torture them. "Clean up and be alert to your surroundings. Don't let anyone suspicious get away!" Albert
"You want to set an ambush for Reagan? I don't think it'll be that easy. Reagan is more capable than me. "He'll definitely find out if something is off. We won't be able to stop him if he wants to escape either," Dustin said indifferently.Reagan was number five on the Astonishing World List.In other words, he was ranked number five in the world. Thus, it was extremely hard to kill someone like him.A simple ambush plan like that would not work at all.Julius must have been unsure of Reagan's capability or he was playing dumb. Otherwise, there was no way he could come up with that plan."Naturally, we can't kill him just like that. We can poison him." While saying that, Julius looked toward Rufus. "There are many rare treasures in your treasure room. I remember there's a poison called Deicide Venom.""Deicide Venom? The top poison of the ten deadliest poisons?" Dustin was stunned.The ten deadliest poisons were so terrifying that it would make an individual tremble at the m
Julius raised an eyebrow. Staring at the black pill, he felt a bit suspicious. Thus, he forced a smile and replied, "Dustin, thank you. However, you should keep it for yourself. I don't need it.""I have a lot of Rejuvenatium. It's not anything precious. Feel free to take it. If one is not enough, I have many more." Dustin continued to smile."Well …" Julius was a bit hesitant."What is it? You don't believe me? Do you think I'll poison you?" Dustin suddenly asked."Of course not. You're such a righteous person. There's no way you would do something like that." Julius forced a smile."Eat it, then." Dustin pushed the black pill to him.The corners of Julius' eye twitched. After taking a deep breath, he took the black pill and swallowed it.Julius had to eat it regardless of what it contained. Otherwise, he couldn't obtain Dustin's trust."Uncle Julius, how do you feel?" Dustin questioned with a smile."Not bad. It's no wonder that it's such an amazing pill. I can feel a warm
"Oh? It seems like you got prepared in advance." Rufus smiled meaningfully.Dustin was indeed cunning. After all, he only did all of this to pressure Julius.After eating Rejuvenatium, Julius wouldn't dare to reveal any of his hidden intentions if he had any."I don't trust Uncle Julius, so I must take precautions. That way, our efforts won't be in vain if he acts recklessly and rebels again." Dustin shrugged."It's a good thing to be on alert. However, is it reliable to use your uncle as bait?"Rufus added thoughtfully, "Reagan is very capable and cunning. It's difficult to be able to deceive him.""We cannot succeed with Uncle Julius alone. There's no way Reagan would trust someone that he had just partnered with. Thus, we will need to prepare another plan," Dustin replied."Oh? Do you have a good plan?" Rufus raised an eyebrow."I cannot reveal it. You'll get to know when the time comes," Dustin teased."You brat! You're going to hide from your father?" Rufus said irritably
Following that, a group of men in black shirts walked inside calmly.The leader was a middle-aged man dressed in a black, oversized attire and a hat.The middle-aged man had his head lowered, and his hat was pulled down low. Thus, no one could see his face.However, he appeared to have a slender figure.After heading inside, the middle-aged man with the hat made a beeline to Julius and sat down opposite him.The group of people behind him began to scan their surroundings alertly."Who are you?" Julius felt a bit confused looking at the middle-aged man before him.Julius had seen Reagan before. He was tall and buff, not slender like the man before him."Grand General Rhys, long time no see." The middle-aged man took off his hat and revealed his appearance.After looking closely, Julius was stunned. "You're Cinna?""You have a good eye. It's been ten years since I last saw you. I didn't expect you to still recognize me." Cinna smiled.Compared to his robust figure ten years ag
Seeing that Julius was about to leave, Cinna couldn't take it anymore. "Wait for a second! Grand General Rhys, we can just talk it out. Why are you being so rash?""What else is there to talk about? You don't even trust me. It's clear that you're just disrespecting me!" Julius acted like he was angry."Don't get so worked up. It's not that Sir Judd doesn't want to meet you. It's because he doesn't have time. If it's possible, please wait for a moment. I'll go and ask about his thoughts." Cinna forced a smile."Hurry up if you want to ask. I don't have that much time to wait." Julius stood with his hands behind his back arrogantly."Of course. Please sit. I'll go and ask right away." After consoling Julius, Cinna went to a corner and started calling someone.Cinna nodded after being on the phone for about two minutes. With his single gesture, his subordinates immediately scattered around to check their surroundings.After a while, everyone returned without any findings.Cinna and
