Chapter 604
They saw a tall figure appear behind the old man. When they saw his face clearly, the six members of parliament on both sides of the table widened their eyes and exclaimed in shock, “It’s You? !”
They had never expected to see this previous elder again. wasn’t he already wanted by the speaker? How dare he appear here in public?
At this moment, someone noticed that this previous elder did not come alone. Behind him, in the dark, stood a figure that looked like a ghost. From the outline of the figure, it seemed to be a woman, just like his shadow.
The old man felt as if he was being looked down upon by a ferocious tiger, as if he would be struck by lightning at the slightest change. He did not panic, and his expression did not change. However, his shoulder suddenly moved, and a hard force burst out from his bones. He believed that.., not only would this move be able to shake off this hand, but it could also be used to injure this person. After all, not just anyone could casually place their palm on his shoulder.
However, just as this hard force rose, he felt his shoulder suddenly sink. The palm on his shoulder was like a huge mountain pressing down heavily. Not only did it completely cancel out the force that he had burst out, but it also directly crushed over with a bang, the legs of the chair he was sitting on exploded.
His body swayed, and he felt a slight stuffiness in his chest, as if he could not breathe.
The old man was shocked. He could not help but turn his head to look. He saw a handsome young man who was much younger than he had imagined. His expression was indifferent, and his black eyes seemed to be looking at the conference table in front of him, he also seemed to be looking down at him from above.
“Who are you?”The old man suppressed the shock in his heart and asked in a deep voice.
Hearing the old man’s words, the clever young man next to him immediately scolded, “Bastard, give me your dirty hands. Who Are You? How dare you barge in here? Do you want to die…”
The moment he said the word “Die”, his voice immediately became distorted.
His neck was strangled, and a bald man wearing a mask flashed in from outside. He carried a huge black bag on his back and strangled the young man’s throat like he was holding a chicken, he suppressed his voice: “Kid, why don’t you try to say your words again?”
The boy’s throat was suppressed. His face was red and he couldn’t breathe. At this moment it was difficult for him to speak.
“Everyone, long time no see. Do You Miss Me?”Dudian’s voice was flat.
The six of them were members of the dark church. They had been through hundreds of battles with the Holy Church. How could they not see that the old man had been restrained by Dudian, the old man had killed several Grand Knights of the Holy Church since he took over the position. He looked like a skeleton but his body contained terrifying power. However at this moment.., he was restrained by Dudian so easily!
Everyone felt their scalps go numb as they thought of the possibility of this man appearing here. He was wanted by the speaker. Since the other party dared to appear here, there was a possibility that he would kill them!
“Elder, Elder, we all miss you.”A bearded middle-aged man revealed a natural smile. However, the muscles on his face were stiff.
“Yes, Elder, we all miss you.”Another strong man added.
The Calm Old Man’s heart was stirred up again. He didn’t think that this youth was the missing elder. Moreover, he dared to appear here.
“I know that everyone misses me so I came back.”Dudian’s expression was indifferent and natural, “I remember that I promised half a year ago that in half a year I would make the ninth region into the top five regions. Do you still remember?”
The old man was stunned. The six members of Parliament were also stunned.
They naturally remembered Dudian’s words. But after Dudian went missing, they thought that he was bluffing. After all, they were used to this kind of thing, he had promised to set a very high goal. The goal was to win the hearts of the people. After a long time in office, who would dare to talk to him about the goal he had set when he took office? Unless he didn’t want to be mixed up.
“I always keep my word. I will personally participate in this meeting of elders.”Dudian calmly said.
Sergei couldn’t help but secretly curled his lips as he heard Dudian’s words. In his heart, Dudian was definitely not a person who talked about credibility, he wouldn’t get up early without benefits.
The six of them stared at Dudian for a while, the burly man carefully said: “Elder, you have been withdrawn. You are no longer an elder of the 9th region. Only the elders can participate in this elder conference. I’m afraid…”
“It doesn’t matter.”Dudian indifferently said: “It may be the case before me but it may not be the case after me.”
The Brawny man was speechless.
The old man was shocked as he heard Dudian’s words. He knew that the elder’s strength was beyond that of a senior hunter. Perhaps he could be compared to the top few monsters in the outer wall, if the elder wanted to break into the elder’s meeting, he wouldn’t be able to stop him.
He quickly calculated in his heart and politely said: “I didn’t expect you to be the previous elder. Nice to meet you.”
“Yes.”Dudian nodded slightly.
Such an attitude was a bit arrogant. The old man was unhappy but didn’t show it, he continued: “Although you have abdicated but since you are still concerned about the matters of the ninth region then it doesn’t matter if you come with me…”
Dudian patted his shoulder and interrupted him: “Get Up and talk to me.”
The Old Man’s face turned ugly: “I am old. I am sitting and talking to you is not considered rude!”
The six of them were shocked as they heard Dudian’s words. The teenager was also shocked. It was tantamount to admitting that Dudian was stronger than him. The weak needed to be respectful to the strong, so there was no need to salute.
“Don’t talk to me about age.”Dudian said: “Otherwise, my grandson can be your grandfather.”
The old man was stunned. He didn’t expect that Dudian would humiliate him so directly. He clenched his fists as anger surged in his heart. He clenched his teeth and slowly stood up, “Since you want to sit, then sit.”
Dudian pulled out a chair and sat down at a comfortable distance away from the table. He leaned back on the chair and crossed his legs. At this time, everyone saw the figure of the woman standing behind him, the woman’s face was covered by a scarf like black scarf. Her face was covered but her eyes were white.
When they saw her eyes, they felt a chill in their hearts. It was as if they were being stared at by a pair of extremely ferocious eyes.
“What’s Your Name?”Dudian looked at the old man who was standing next to him.
The old man was angry as he saw Dudian’s superior attitude towards his subordinates: “My codename is ‘Shooting Wolf’.”
“Who recommended you to be an elder in the 9th Region?”Dudian looked at his eyes: “Is it the Pope or the elder of the monastery?”
The Old Man’s face changed when he heard the word ‘pope’. The six people on both sides of the table were shocked. They were instinctively sensitive to the word ‘pope’.
The Old Man’s heart was beating fast. He didn’t expect that Dudian would be able to expose his identity. The pope had used the network of the Holy See to infiltrate him. He used to be the highest level librarian of the Holy See and rarely showed his face for many years, even few people in the Holy See had seen him. It was because of this that the pope had sent him here. Logically speaking, no one would be able to see through his identity.
He controlled his heartbeat to calm down, he coldly said: “What Pope? I was personally appointed by the speaker. Do you want to be an elder of the 9th region again? “It is useless to slander me. The only way to become an elder is to get permission from the Chairman.”
Dudian looked at him and gently tapped the table, “After the meeting of the elders you will come with me to the Holy See. I have wanted to meet the Pope for many years.”
The old man’s face sank: “What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know our identity? Do you want to go to the Holy Church? Or do you want to betray the Holy Church? Do you want to seek rewards from those hypocrites?”
Dudian said: “There is only one word in your sentence.”
The old man frowned: “What?”
“I want to ask for something.”Dudian said
“You!”The Old Man’s face was full of anger: “I won’t go with you unless…”
“Unless you want to die.”Dudian said.
The old man was silent as he felt the murderous intent in Dudian’s words. He thought that his face project was in place. At least he would be able to get rid of the suspicion of being a spy.
“When you go to the Holy See you will be ready to die!”He sneered in his heart.
Dudian didn’t pay attention to him. He turned his head and looked at the six people. He naturally saw a familiar face. It was Amy who was imprisoned by him. He didn’t expect that the great potion master would come out, it seemed that the old man had put him in an important position.
He didn’t say anything. Since he was short of manpower at the moment, there was some use in keeping this person.
Amy’s heart tightened as she saw Dudian looking at her. She lowered her head and didn’t dare to look at him. She was afraid that Dudian would hold a grudge against her and lock her up again in that dark and dirty dungeon.
“Everyone, I will give you three days to rule all the branches. All the money, alchemy and potions will be moved to the headquarters.”Dudian’s expression was calm but his words were shocking.
Everyone was shocked. All the resources were gathered at the headquarters? Was this… was he going to rob the savings of the entire 9th Region?
Everyone couldn’t help but look at him in shock. What was this man thinking? was he crazy?
Dudian looked at Hawkeye: “You are responsible for this matter.”
Hawkeye looked at the long-lost teenager. He felt familiar with him. But this time he felt that the teenager was different. Firstly, his height had changed. He was taller than before. This was something that couldn’t be changed by the Beast Glue Mask, he had a guess in his heart. In addition, he felt that the boy was more dangerous than before. There seemed to be a ferocious soul hidden under his calm and indifferent face.
“Hawkeye accepts the order.”Hawkeye bowed his head.
Compared to working for old man shooting wolf, Hawkeye was more willing to work for Dudian. Although he was afraid of Dudian but he had an indescribable trust in him.
Dudian nodded slightly: “I will come back on the day of the Elders’meeting. Oh yes, I am missing. I should be wanted by the higher-ups, right?”
Everyone’s heart jumped as they heard Dudian’s words.
Dudian looked at everyone’s reaction. He had received the answer: “If you are interested, I don’t mind if you report to the higher-ups. However, don’t affect the things I will tell you. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences.”
He turned and walked away.
Aisha followed behind him like a shadow.
Sergei let go of his hand and left with Dudian.
Everyone watched the three of them leave. They were relieved until the footsteps were completely inaudible. Amy said to old man: “Elder, this bastard still dares to appear. Let’s send people to kill him!”
Old Man looked at her. His eyes slowly swept over the faces of the others. He sighed and shook his head: “It is impossible to capture this person by relying on the manpower of the 9th region.”
Amy was stunned.
“If my guess is correct, his strength has exceeded the hunter level. He is strong enough to compete with the inner wall!”Old Man said slowly.
Everyone was surprised to hear his words. They didn’t expect Dudian’s strength to be so strong. It was completely beyond their expectations.
Amy quickly reacted and gritted her teeth: “We can use poison. If we can’t beat him in a frontal attack then we will ambush, ambush and assassinate him! What’s the use of having strong strength? No matter how strong a person is, would he dare to swallow the poison I developed?”
Old Man nodded: “That’s true. But let’s leave him to the other regions. We just need to spread the news about him.”
“That’s Good!”Amy was happy to see him agree.
Dudian took Aisha and Sergei to ride their horses as they headed towards the castle.
“Young master, is that the headquarters of the Dark Church? What do they mean by the ninth region? I see that the people there are extraordinary.”Sergei rode on the horse, he couldn’t suppress his curiosity and asked: “Do you want to use the power of the dark church to fight?”
Dudian replied: “Yes.”
Sergei scratched his head: “Isn’t it too dangerous? The people of the dark church are worse than me. I’m afraid that I will be betrayed.”
