Legend of Dragon Son-in-law-Chapter 1354: Destroying the Vine
Chapter 1354: Chapter 1354: Destroying the Vine
"Why aren’t we making a move?"
Julius Reed turned around, looking at Nicholas Pendleton: "This is a great opportunity for you to make a name for yourself."
Most of the henchmen from the Seventh Route suffered heavy casualties, mainly struck by arrows, collapsing into pools of blood.
Yet Nicholas Pendleton’s eyes flickered, the man indecisive.
"To tell you the truth," he said with a wry smile, "Killing Lyman Davenport and finish off the guards of Rat Town is already the limit. If we rashly attack Rat Town, the nature of the conflict will change."
Nicholas Pendleton bit his lip, his fists clenched tightly.
How could he not want to kill off these scoundrels and take down Rat Town?
But...
Nine forces divide and rule Swimming City; this tacit understanding is also a balance!
The three lowest routes keep each other in check on the outskirts.
If the Ninth Route really takes down Rat Town, the entire Swimming City will be shaken to its core.
The pressure of public opinion and the intimidation from within Swimming City, Nicholas Pendleton simply can’t withstand it!
The instructions given by Hagan Marsh were to quickly rescue Delaney, but there was no directive for them to have large-scale conflicts with the Seventh Route.
Now, in order to eliminate Seamus Jackson and Howie Will, Nicholas Pendleton is already taking a huge risk.
Bringing thousands of people from the Ninth Route is moreover to keep up appearances.
In fact, if Julius Reed hadn’t insisted that he do so, Nicholas Pendleton would have been very reluctant to bring people over.
"Do you know why I asked you to bring out all your men?" Julius Reed was naturally aware of his concerns.
"Why? Isn’t it to strengthen our presence and intimidate the Seventh Route?" Nicholas Pendleton suddenly felt something was amiss.
The tone of this statement has changed.
"Take a look at what your Bull Town is going through right now." Julius Reed said indifferently: "There’s something I forgot to tell you."
"What is it!" Nicholas Pendleton’s face turned ashen, and he rushed up to Julius Reed: "Don’t ruin me!"
He had already laid all his cards on the table with this stranger in front of him, betting everything!
If the gamble fails.
It’s certain death!
He had no choice but to continue trusting the man before him.
"Why would I harm you?" Julius Reed lifted the corner of his mouth, but silently thought: "Even if I harm you, wouldn’t you have to bear it?"
However, he continued to comfort with a serious and earnest tone: "Trust me. What The North Sea is plotting against is the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance. As long as you submit to Swimming City, The North Sea will grant you complete freedom. And I..."
Julius Reed patted his own chest: "General Whitaker Solaris Grove is here to help you."
"How is it? Speak!" Nicholas Pendleton was in a panic.
"Go, kill them, and take over Rat Town," Julius Reed said calmly.
"No!" Nicholas Pendleton shook his head like a rattle drum, continuously denying it: "Once we enter Rat Town, the consequences are unimaginable! Commander Marsh is not here; I can’t bear the consequences!" freeωebnovēl.c૦m
"No way! No way!" Nicholas Pendleton kept muttering.
"What if. It was the people from the Seventh Route who went to Bull Town first?" After Julius Reed spoke, he pointed to the phone on Nicholas Pendleton’s waist: "Call those few dozen men stationed in Bull Town, ask them."
"What do you mean!" Nicholas Pendleton quickly took out his phone, but before he could make a call, a call had already come in.
"Dennis Gonzalez, what’s going on?"
"Third Master, Judge Davis has led his men and invaded our Bull Town, Fifth Master and his men are resisting, they’re nearly all dead!"
"What! Say that again!" Nicholas Pendleton’s eyes widened, and he was completely stunned.
"Fifth Master..."
Whoosh!
The sound of the hidden weapons box.
On the other end of the phone, only the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground could be heard.
"No! Impossible!" Nicholas Pendleton, usually composed, frantically ran to the car behind him and pulled out a display screen.
This was Bull Town’s surveillance console.
When he turned on the screen, what he saw were Seventh Route henchmen swaggering in Bull Town, slaughtering those guards from the Ninth Route.
"How could this happen..." Nicholas Pendleton’s throat moved, and he was completely dumbfounded.
"I was worried that others might threaten you, so I decided to use others to remove the obstacle. Utilizing Judge Davis’s hand to help you take out the rest of Hagan Marsh’s adopted sons," Julius Reed patted Nicholas Pendleton’s shoulder and said: "Congratulations, you are now the sole heir of the Ninth Route."
"You knew all along?"
Nicholas Pendleton looked at Julius Reed dumbly, his eyes beginning to show red blood vessels.
"Judge Davis, is he your man?"
"No." Julius Reed shook his head.
"Then how did you know he would take people to Cow Town!" Nicholas Pendleton roared in a muffled voice: "You had planned this all along!"
"I am a sage." Julius Reed did not care about Nicholas Pendleton’s attitude but pointed to his own head: "I have thousands of troops and horses packed in here."
"I..."
Nicholas Pendleton’s heart was in turmoil!
"Don’t panic, you immediately send these videos to Hagan Marsh. Additionally, I quietly planted some explosives in Cow Town that I didn’t tell you about," said Julius Reed as he took out a smartphone from his pocket.
"What! You planted explosives!" Nicholas Pendleton’s eyes bulged like those of a cow!
This...
When did this happen?
How could I have no clue at all!
"Right, I arranged for someone to plant them secretly. Once these explosives go off in Cow Town, they’re enough to wipe out all the people there," Julius Reed pointed at Lillian Tompson: "Didn’t you notice that my assistant has been absent all along?"
"What are you going to do!" Nicholas Pendleton charged over, trying to grab Julius Reed by the collar.
But his neck was seized by Julius Reed first.
"Of course, I am here to help you. This is a rare opportunity! To make great achievements, to take over Rat Town! To break the balance of Swimming City!"
After speaking, Julius Reed let go.
"Do you want to achieve something great?"
"Yes!" Nicholas Pendleton took a deep breath and roared: "Attack! Slaughter those beasts, take down Rat Town!"
He still had his wits about him.
The video of Cow Town, he had already sent to Hagan Marsh.
In this kind of matter, no matter the consequences, all responsibility falls on the Seventh Route!
Even if they conquered Rat Town!
"Attack!"
Watching the surrounding Ninth Route ruffians who were somewhat fearful, Nicholas Pendleton yelled: "Damn it, with your homes being stolen, are you even men!"
"Kill!"
Shouts of killing filled the sky.
Thousands of people, armed with weapons, charged into Rat Town.
"Please watch the fireworks," Julius Reed turned around, looking in the direction of Rat Town: "Are you ready?"
"No!"
Nicholas Pendleton shook his head and hurriedly tried to stop him: "In Rat Town, there is..."
He stopped short of finishing his sentence.
"At this juncture, you’re still hiding things from me?" Julius Reed squinted his eyes, knowing the secret was about to surface.
Nicholas Pendleton hung his head, after a fierce internal struggle, lifted his head and said softly: "The vines we cultivate in Cow Town are requested by a mysterious figure. If these vines are destroyed, the loss will be tremendous."
"What’s the name of this mysterious figure?" Julius Reed asked again.
"I don’t know, but it seems to be a friend of Ghost Boss. It’s said to be a woman, very mysterious. And our Commander Marsh, he has taken a lot of benefits," Nicholas Pendleton frowned severely.
This is a secret.
"Compared with a great cause, what do those vines amount to?" Julius Reed tapped on his smartphone.
Destroying the vines, Isabella Warm is bound to take action.
Maid, we shall meet again.
...
"Commander Cook, we have already taken Cow Town!" Scott Davis stood in the Cow Town office, having a video call with Xander Cook.
"Good! Very good!"
Xander Cook exclaimed joyfully: "This action was commanded by the young master while I was away!"
"Understood!" Scott Davis nodded.
"Very good! Execute immediately..."
Boom!
Xander Cook did not finish his sentence.
A loud explosion came from the other end of the screen, followed by the image disappearing.
And Swimming City!
Suddenly began to tremble!
