After Noelle woke up at noon the next day, she leisurely opened the door for business again. This time, the queue extended from the entrance of Treasure House to the end of the street. “We want to buy a storage ring!” As soon as Noelle opened the door, everyone started shouting. Everyone wanted to get the ring, but the number was limited, and most of them knew they had missed the chance. However, they wanted to fight for it. What if Treasure House decided to sell unlimited quantities today? Noelle ignored them and invited the first five people in. They always stuck to the rules. Since they had agreed on five, they would only sell the rings to five people. These people were in disguise. Philip gave each of them a camouflage pill and told them to leave from the backdoor. It was normal for others to target them if they carried such a valuable item with them. Philip wanted to reduce this possibility. Of course, once they left this street, they had to fend for themselves.
It appeared in this place by accident. Even the beast had no idea how it left its mother’s side and ended up in this ghastly place.… Meanwhile, Imperial City was in chaos. Although Imperial City was safest, too many people had flooded the city. The inns were full, and many people had to sleep on the streets. Moreover, the crime rate was increasing as if many people were taking advantage of the chaos to cause more destruction. Fernand Larson, the eldest young master of the Larson family, was caught in this mayhem. He knew that he would be held accountable at this rate. After he arrived at this city, he was held in high regard due to his outstanding ability and quickly became captain of the city’s defense army. After years of hard work, his position was unshakeable. If this incident had not happened, he would probably have become the commander of the city’s defense army. The current commander had been assigned to Guzo Forest to investigate the truth, and Fernand was for
“I can’t believe that the acting commander of the city guards would be so cruel and ruthless to the point of disregarding human lives!” The prime minister kept complaining about what happened and could not bear it anymore. The refugees were very pitiful. The prime minister even provided a vacant house for them. The prime minister had many properties in Imperial City, and this empty house could accommodate many people. The weak and elderly led a tough life in hiding. Whenever they went out to buy something, they would be discovered as refugees. Thus, the prime minister even had to arrange for food and drinks to be sent to them. Hence, no one discovered the refugees hiding here for the time being, but Fernand was in the spotlight, leading his men in search of refugees and driving them out. The emperor looked very unhappy when he heard the report. He never thought Fernand would be so bold as to drive the refugees away without permission. “He believes that the refugees are the
Other cities would never accept them. His house was their only way out. Fernand was already lost in his bloodlust. At first, he let the Shadow Guards operate in private. Later, he personally captured the refugees in broad daylight. The people had to pay a certain fee if they wanted to stay in Imperial City, and no ordinary family could afford that amount. Those who paid up could stay in Imperial City for some time, while those who could not were driven away or killed on the spot. The refugees went into panic mode for a while. They had lost the chance to survive. Thus, many of them fled Imperial City. They did not dare to stay for fear that a bunch of killers would suddenly appear and kill them. … The Cod family developed rapidly and quietly. With Alton's help, they built their business, and Vance got swell-headed. After his family’s business developed rapidly, Vance was convinced that the city would belong to them in no time. Thus, he found it difficult to accept that T
Among the first five customers in line today, two were from the Cod family and two were from the mayor’s residence. The last one was a lucky bystander. Vance paid no heed. As soon as the door opened, he led his people forward to cause a commotion and dispersed all the people waiting in line. The people queueing up happily waiting to buy a storage ring were pushed away and disappeared among the crowd. Other people in line were confused about being chased away. Most importantly, their queue order had been disrupted! The people at the back of the queue happily pushed their way forward, trying to grab the first five spots while the people in front were pushed to the ground and trampled on. Noelle was dumbfounded by this scene. Everyone usually lined up in an orderly manner. Even if they were jealous of the first five customers, they would not do such an impulsive thing. This turn of events was very unusual. “Stop messing around!” Granite and his team quickly maintained the
“You’re right. I’ll ask them to keep queuing. There can never be too many storage rings.” Alton smiled and stroked his right hand. He had made room for a storage ring. If possible, he wanted all ten fingers filled with storage rings. At this time, someone ran to the mayor’s residence in a panic and knelt in front of Alton. Alton was taken aback and wondered what was going on. “What’s going on? Why are you in such a panic? Did something happen when you were making the purchase?” He recognized this subordinate as the one responsible for buying the storage ring for him. Something big must have happened to render him in such a panic. “Mayor, something bad has happened. We were just about to buy the storage ring when Vance of the Cod family turned up to cause trouble and disrupted everything! “Due to that, Treasure House shut the door in anger and refused to open for business. We can’t even queue up for anything now! “We don’t even know if Treasure House will ever open for bus
If Niffler was looking for Scarlet all over the city, she would be doomed. “Cut the crap and do as you’re told!” Alton was angry that Scarlet dared to refuse his order. “How dare you question me?” He slapped Scarlet and sent her flying. Scarlet stared at Alton in shocked disbelief. She never dreamed that she would be beaten. Scarlet relied on her beauty and the charm technique that she was so proud of to take Alton down. However, Alton hit her! Scarlet walked out, full of grievance and resentment. Scarlet was worried about Niffler’s pursuit, but she was more indignant about being played out by Alton. Scarlet vowed to take revenge. “Damn it, all men are no good!” Scarlet scowled and headed to Cod Residence in anger. It was not that far, so it did not take Scarlet too long to reach. Most of them knew that Scarlet was the mayor’s blue-eyed girl. Scarlet entered the house without a hitch and quickly found Jeff. Jeff was playing with his storage ring. All the pills and w
At Riverdale Public Hospital. “Excuse me, make way!” Philip Clarke was carrying an unconscious little girl as he rushed into the hospital, yelling madly, “Doctor! Doctor! Quick, save my little girl!” The nurses and doctor who had rushed out quickly took the child from Philip’s arms, and entered the emergency room. “Oh, you can’t go in!” A nurse in an azure-colored uniform with a face mask stopped Philip from entering into the emergency room. Just then, the rapid sounds of high heels clicking against the ceramic tiles could be heard from the back, squeezing his heart with every click. “Philip Clarke!” roared a woman’s voice. ‘Slap!’ A crisp slap came in firm contact with Philip’s cheek. Before him, stood Wynn Johnston with an enraged expression as tears pooled in her beautiful eyes. “If anything happens to my daughter, I will never forgive you!” Her tone was cold and laced with full fury. This scene frightened quite a few patients and their family members in the hospital
