While speaking, Drake tapped his cigarette, quickly, a man from the Island Nation, wearing a gray shirt, short and skinny, quietly emerged from the shadows."You're Theophilus's underling, Isidore? Hello, I am Divine Citadel.""Divine Citadel? Which Divine Citadel?" Isidore frowned, evaluating the sudden appearance of this Island Nation man, his expression slightly doubtful."I don't care if you're Divine or whoever, the matters in Empyria are not for the Island Nation to meddle in," Isidore said coldly, his eyes coldly fixed on Drake, "Drake, what trick are you playing? Bringing an Island Nation guy here to scare me?"Isidore couldn't comprehend what Drake was thinking.After all, this was Radiant Harbor of Empyria, under the emperor's feet, what significant power could a foreigner here have?Could it be that Drake thought bringing an Island Nation person could confront Wolfgang?"Isidore, who I, Divine Citadel, am, you better go back and ask your big brother Theophilus," Divine said
Park Kim Hoon said, "I've received a piece of secret intelligence. Around the time Theophilus came to Radiant Harbor, and also about Gabriel, the richest man in Radiant Harbor, his recent suicide was a sensation, supposedly forced by Theophilus.""Gabriel and I had dealings before, he was an extremely intelligent old man from Empyria, who unexpectedly failed at the hands of Theophilus, even his assets were thoroughly dealt with," Park Kim Hoon spoke seriously: "Mr. Citadel, do you know anything about the secret behind it?"Divine smiled and said, "Honestly, I was also shocked to see Theophilus eliminate Gabriel.""I can guess that Theophilus wanted to avenge his father, hence he went to battle to the death with Gabriel. Because the Lee family and Gabriel were closely connected in the shadows," Divine spoke calmly: "But the exact process, I don't know.""It's a pity I couldn't make contact with the Lee family, otherwise, we would have a strong ally," Divine stated firmly: "But no matte
Theophilus coldly looked at the team leader and said, "Stop with the needless words. I don't blame you for this. Lift your head. I ask you, in my absence from Radiant Harbor, did my grandfather ever leave Dreamland Crest Mountain?"The team leader lifted his head, hesitated, thought for a while, and then said, "Two weeks ago, Mr. Alexander expressed a desire to go up to Ephemeralia Mountain to catch a breeze. At that time, members of our security organization personally accompanied him. Besides that, he always rested peacefully at the nursing area.""Commander Jake, do you suspect there's a loophole in this matter?" the team leader asked with a hesitant expression.It's not that the team leader didn't suspect someone intentionally harmed the elder, but he dared not think in that direction, nor could he confirm it, as the matter was of great importance!Mr. Alexander Oswald is a national hero, inherently very important! Moreover, Commander Jake is the honorary commander of the military
Indeed, he believed he had hit Theophilus's weak spot.The poison inflicted on Oswald was concocted by Mr. Citadel himself, with no antidote available.He didn't believe Theophilus could remain indifferent to his grandfather's life and death and still stand firm against him."Ha," Theophilus coldly laughed, "So, this is your belief, using my grandfather's life to threaten me?""And what if it is? I am using Mr. Alexander's life to threaten you, what can you do about it? Do you understand now who holds the initiative?" Sean arrogantly said: "Young Master Alexander, do you still not grasp the situation? Do you think you're invincible in Radiant Harbor, that no one can touch you? Let me tell you, what happened to your grandfather is just a warning to you. If you continue to be arrogant, you're as good as dead!" Wind said, sneeringly proud.Theophilus cracked a cold smile."Theophilus, are you asking for my help or trying to threaten me?" Sean oddly said: "It seems you're not convinced, n
Right now, he wasn't in the mood to engage in business rivalries with these minor figures.All night, he had been thinking about how to capture Divine and find the antidote within three days.Ring ring.Just then, Theophilus's phone rang.It was Magnus calling.His eyes lit up.Theophilus answered the phone, "Magnus, what's the situation now?""Hello, grand elder, I have some news about the task you assigned me," Magnus said respectfully on the other end, "You asked me to look for the Dragon Tongue flower. I've found some information. It's extremely rare in the black market, no one has seen it before, but rumors say the Gonzalez family at Quantum Ridge is holding one.""I have already sought connections to contact the Gonzalez family. My investigation revealed that the Gonzalez family in Quantum Ridge is modest and doesn't interact much with the outside world, but their influence is not small, by no means inferior to the five major families in Radiant Harbor. They have a significant i
"Hasn't grandpa always taught us to be grateful? Mr. Jake is a kind and good person, now he's in trouble, our Gonzalez family should help him. Besides, he's willing to pay the price," Louise pleaded."Ha ha ha…" Winfred burst into hearty laughter, looking at Louise with kind eyes and then patting her head."Louise, these past few days you've been incessantly talking about this Mr. Jake, that's Theophilus, right?" Winfred's eyes gleamed with intelligence, he laughed heartily: "You've only interacted with this Jake kid a few times and you're already speaking up for him? Mr. Jake? It seems that kid also has some skills.""Grandpa, you…" Louise's face turned red, she stammered: "Anyway, I feel we should help him.""How dare you, Louise, how are you speaking to grandpa?" the Oldest brother of the Gonzalez family scolded: "Let me tell you, this is a serious family matter, if you don't understand, then don't speak recklessly.""Whether it's a big matter or a small one, I only know one thing,
The next day.Radiant Harbor, Mid International Airport.Vincent led a few young men in suits and a convoy of cars, respectfully waiting outside the airport.Joaquin and the Gonzalez family disembarked from the plane and were taken to the Mid hotel.This was also the place where Theophilus had arranged to meet Joaquin.The Mid hotel had been privately booked, with only a team of young men in suits standing along the long corridor.In the most luxurious hall located in the center of the twenty-eighth floor.Theophilus sat upright at the dining table, his face very serious, his fingers lightly tapping on the table surface.Dai and the team leader stood behind him, their faces a mix of anticipation and complexity.Both of them knew the guests Theophilus had invited were from the Gonzalez family of Trấn Nam, bringing the divine medicine that could save Mr. Alexander's life.Honestly, this was the first time they saw such a scene.Theophilus was holding a reception for the guests.This was
Theophilus's eyes deepened as he scrutinized Arnold once again.Worthy of being Winfred's eldest son from Quantum Ridge, he was no simple character.Had Arnold not shown his hand, Theophilus would not have felt the presence of such a supreme master before him.Just a glance was enough for Theophilus to conclude.Arnold, at the very least, could be ranked in the Earth tier of the reclusive world, a level above Austin and Nameless.No wonder Joaquin was at a loss for words in front of him, and no wonder he dared to be so forthright in his presence."Theophilus, it's not that I look down on you. But this is a great favor my father is offering you, wanting to marry his precious granddaughter to you, considering the Dragon Tongue flower as her dowry," Arnold said coldly: "From what I see, you're utterly unworthy of the Dragon Tongue flower, and unworthy of entering the Gonzalez family!"Theophilus responded with a nonchalant smile towards Arnold: "Then what do you think would make someone
