Chapter 1639 Threat

Carter Horton was dressed in casual clothes and sat calmly across from me. His slightly fat belly was slightly raised and pressed against the edge of the table. He frowned slightly, looked down at the chair, and then moved back a few times. After carving out a gap of about half a meter, he adjusted his position comfortably and sat down.

After taking a few comfortable breaths, he said in a deep voice: "It's been many days since we last saw each other. How are you going?"

Smiling slightly, I said: "I do long for a happy life, but there are always people who don't want me to have my wishes."

"Oh?" Holden was startled for a moment, then smiled: "Who can make a young handsome man like you feel unsatisfied?"

"According to your Majesty's words, do you want to avenge a commoner like me?"

"Oh hey, I never said that," Holden chuckled, "How can I, the little Lord of Airui City, be able to deal with someone who even dares to offend the adopted son of the legendary wealthy businessman Master Dewey?"

Looking at his innocent smile, I said calmly: "If this person has a relationship with you, what will you do? Will you protect him to the death? Or ignore him?"

Holden's expression did not change and he said, "Then it depends on the relationship between this person and me."

I tilted my chin, stared at him, and said, "I wonder if I can have the honor of listening to His Majesty's definition of 'relationship'?"

Holden paused and said, "My Carter Holden's life will be in vain if I can be listened to by Master Dewey's son. Well, I'll tell you."

"If that person is my family, I can't just sit idly by. If that person is not my family, but my subordinate, I have to consider it as appropriate. After all, this will be related to my reputation and my reputation in Zefeng Continent. If that person has nothing to do with either of these, then whatever you like."

"Okay." I clapped my hands repeatedly, laughed, and said, "This person is neither your family nor necessarily your subordinate. Although he may be in Airui City, I'm afraid he is not on His Majesty's asylum list."

"Meaning around the bush" Carter Horton snorted and said: "Since you are not under my protection, you can just do it, why bother asking me to come over?"

"Isn't this just to show my courtesy and respect to you?" I smiled slightly and said, "Speaking of which, the person who offended me is not even from Airui City, but from York City."

He frowned and said dissatisfied: "Then you go to the Lord of York and Han City. What are you doing here?"

My smile did not change and I said leisurely: "Compared to the fiery temper of the Lord of Han City, York, you seem to be easier to talk to."

"Hmph." Holden snorted again and said, "Do you still want to be grateful for your favor?"

"If you really think so, it wouldn't hurt to be grateful."

Carter Holden's eyes widened and his expression was quite ugly. However, after a few seconds, he took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and said slowly: "Since you said so, I will give you some face, so go ahead. Who is the person who offended you? Remember, don’t beat around the bush again.”

"Okay" I nodded and said, "Then let me tell you, I wonder if you have heard of a guild called the 'Knights of the Round Table'."

Holden looked stern, remained silent for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I've heard of it, so what?"

"They once sent someone to set up an ambush to hunt down a woman in Airui City."

Holden lowered his eyelids and said slowly: "I don't know about this. Besides, if the Adventurer's Guild can set up an ambush to hunt down a woman, I'm afraid this woman has done something that is outrageous to both humans and gods."

"Whether humans and gods are angry, I don't know, and I have no intention of finding out. I only know that this woman is related to one of my subordinates. You are also someone who cares about reputation and status, so you should be able to understand my current situation."

"How about understanding, so what if you don't understand?" Holden said slightly.

"If you can understand, I will naturally express my gratitude. If you can't understand, I have nothing to say. However, I hope you can discuss with the Lord of York and Han City to get rid of this guild that is good at causing trouble. It is best to hand it over to me. , don’t worry, as long as it falls into my hands, I will stop causing trouble for you, and will soon make it disappear on the Zephyr Continent, along with everything related to it, will be dealt with."

"What if I don't follow your request?" Holden looked stern, and the majesty of the superior was evident in an instant.

I chuckled and said lazily, "So there's nothing to talk about?"

Holden frowned and looked at me, like a man-eating tiger, but no matter how ferocious he behaved, in my opinion, it was not even as strong as the sense of oppression brought to me by a mon.

After a long silence, he said in a deep voice: "You are so rude, aren't you afraid that I will leave you in Airui City?"

"It doesn't matter." I spread my hands and said relaxedly: "I have already prepared for this before I came here. If I can't go back safe and sound, or if I don't get a satisfactory answer, I will be driven back in despair. As long as I In either of these two situations, Airey City and York City will suffer a joint attack from the other three countries. The Carter family and Simmons family will also inevitably suffer disaster. Not only you, but also your family members. , relatives, friends, and even all families or individuals who have good relations with your family will face a great purge from three countries. A hundred years later, my name will be engraved in the history books and I will become a hero who went to the meeting alone. And your family, and the Simmons family, will forever be buried in the smoke of history."

With a chuckle, I added: "Actually, this is quite good. It saves future generations the trouble of studying the history of your two families. It also saves some energy for those archaeologists to excavate more valuable things." Ancient Heritage.”

Carter Horton's face looked quite ugly, as if he had swallowed a toad alive.

No wonder he had such an expression. As a hegemon, he did not hesitate to kill brothers and became a monarch. He ruled the city of Airui and was no longer threatened by others. However, today, he was once again faced with a choice and a difficult problem was thrown at him. The person who forced him to choose was actually a child who was not yet weak.

How can this make him not annoyed?

The look in his eyes made him want to skin me alive.

However, this fat and angry middle-aged man couldn't do anything to me.

The reason why Ai Rui City and York City provoked Dasay City again and again was to let Dasay City take the lead in launching a war. Only in this way can the intervention of Fort Vicky and Moonlight City be fundamentally restrained.

Carter Horton is not a fool. No matter how strong the alliance between the two countries is, it cannot withstand the crushing heavy equipment of Fort Vicky and the overwhelming rain of arrows from Moonlight City.

Well, Arrow Rain is easy to say. If you find a good bunker, the death rate will be relatively reduced, but the heavy equipment of the dwarves cannot be suppressed. In the battle of the five major guilds that year, the dwarf guild relied on its own strength to crush the other four. .

Who can guarantee that once the war breaks out, the dwarf guild will not cross the ocean, open up its posture, and push the city of Airei away.
