Chapter 3292 Turmoil
In Zephyr Continent, there may be people who dare to challenge the nobles.
Maybe someone dared to defy the imperial power.
Maybe some people disdain to associate with the imperial prime minister or elders.
Maybe some people dare to despise the five major guilds.
You can even ignore the apostle's threats.
But no one dared to challenge Master Dewey's majesty.
If you were randomly interviewed on the street, someone might say that Master Dewey was a respectable elder.
Or perhaps Master Dewey is a business wizard.
In other words, Master Dewey is the most legendary figure in Zephyr Continent.
In other words, Master Dewey looks like a kind grandfather next door.
But no one dares to say that Master Dewey is a kind and generous elder.
No one dares to say that Master Dewey is soft-hearted.
Because except for those young children who are waiting for food, almost everyone knows that Master Dewey is the kind of ruthless person who is hot on the outside and cold on the inside, with a knife hidden in his smile.
If you weren't someone he absolutely trusted, Master Dewey might have been chatting with you with a smile one moment, and you and your family would have disappeared from the Zephyr Continent the next moment.
Therefore, there is also a saying among the people: You can despise the imperial power and challenge the nobles, but never disobey Master Dewey. He is more terrifying than the imperial power and more cold-blooded than the nobles. He is like the most poisonous snake, always hiding in the In the grass, if you dare to be disrespectful to him, his fangs and venom will kill you in the next moment.
For such a dangerous person, the underground world will never let go of any clues when investigating him.
In this way, we will naturally know the relationship between me and Master Dewey.
Therefore, although my reputation in the underground world is not great, any bounty orders related to me have been rejected by the bounty order issuing office.
It's not that they don't want to pick it up, it's that they don't dare to pick it up.
To them, I am not a hot potato, I am a bomb that will explode, and when it explodes, it will destroy the entire underground world.
Don't think my words are exaggerated. Looking around the Zephyr Continent, there is currently only one person who is truly capable of easily destroying the entire underground world by himself, and that is Master Dewey.
As long as he thinks about it and operates it casually, it is guaranteed that within a few months, the entire underground world's economy will face collapse, followed by bankruptcy and destruction.
Don't think that Master Dewey is just a mere businessman or scientist. When his business and scientific research reached his level, he could already influence the world.
Master Dewey once said to me with a smile after drinking: "If all my industries are closed for a year, the five major countries will cease to exist."
At that time, I just thought he was bragging, but the more I learned about Master Dewey's industry, the more deeply this idea became engraved in my mind and my heart.
This also gave me a clearer understanding of the sentence "You can despise the imperial power and challenge the nobles, but never disobey Master Dewey."
Perhaps it was because of this relationship that the boss at the place where the bounty order was issued showed awe towards me.
The elf man's lips trembled and his whole body stiffened. After a moment, he looked at me with a look that was three parts threatening and one part pleading: "Sir, does it have to be like this?"
Looking at him quietly, I said coldly: "Anyone who offends my family will be punished."
"You are trying to force others into a difficult situation. You are using the fate of the underground world to force me!"
"You misunderstood, I didn't force anyone," I said calmly, "I was just fulfilling a husband's obligation to protect his wife. Just like you want to protect your family, I also want to protect my family."
"What about the underground world?" The elf man said with difficulty: "There are more than tens of millions of people in the underground world. Your wanton killing will force them to despair."
"If there hadn't been that reward order, you would have taken your Yangguan Road, and I would have taken my single-plank bridge. But now, I'm sorry, but before that person is punished, I will carry out the strategy and carry it out unswervingly, even if No matter how much trouble I encounter, even if I am trapped in a tight siege, I will not hesitate."
"My family is my bottom line."
The unquestionable tone showed my determination and firm belief.
The elf man looked ugly, but he couldn't say a single unnecessary word.
After a long silence, he lowered his head feebly: "I have seen your determination, and I hope you will be merciful. We in the underground world do not want to be your enemy."
"Thanks to Ichicha, I will stop attacking for one day."
After that, get up and leave.
After leaving, I immediately sent an order to Boss Rennes to suspend their assassination mission for one day.
A day later, the assassinations continued.
A week later, more than 300 underground world organizations were forced to disband because they were leaderless.
Our side also suffered casualties, with twenty assassins slightly wounded, two assassins seriously wounded, and five assassins killed.
At the same time, a new high-priced reward appeared in the underground world: 20,000 gold coins, offering a reward for the capture of the traitors Carter Rodney and Carter Eva of Airey City.
I believe that this is definitely not something done by people from Airey City, because Carter Horton’s true feelings are that he hopes Carter Rodney can live well. These words come from the heart and cannot be faked at all.
Rodney's two brothers really wanted Rodney to die, but now, Rodney is hiding in Moonlight City and seems to have no contact with Moonlight City. As a result, Rodney, who is no longer a threat, is not worth two. A brother spent 20,000 gold coins.
And besides the Carter family, who would be free to ask about Rodney's affairs?
Therefore, this reward order was not issued by Airui City, but by people in the underground world.
As for whether it was done by the ruler of the underground world, it is unknown.
But what does it matter?
Regardless of whether it is the fault of the ruler of the underground world, I will give the underground world a beating so that they will think I am easy to handle.
Thinking of this, I directly contacted several apostles and asked them to launch an attack on the nearest town, preferably to eliminate some civil organizations.
Several apostles also had nothing to do, so they agreed one after another.
Another three days passed.
The underground world fell into unprecedented chaos.
In just three days, thousands of civil organizations were destroyed.
This time, it was not an assassination that harmed the family, but a direct killing of all the people in the civil society, and the identity of the perpetrator was not hidden, he was an apostle.
For a time, rumors spread in the underground world that the apostles were rioting and wanted to rule the Zephyr Continent.
These rumors are used to scare the common people and incite them to initiate unrest, so that some forces from the underground world can infiltrate, and they can also use the opportunity to force me to take back the apostles.
