Chapter 276 Cats and Dogs
Ryan had already noticed that they had become the focus of everyone's attention, but he didn't mind.
Anyway, he is destined to be the protagonist tonight.
He put his arms around Canossa's extremely soft waist and danced in the same tacit understanding as her.
The dance is not over yet, but the observation is complete.
Kanosa put her cheek close to his ear and whispered softly, "The message has been sent out, and we can act at any time. However, it is better to force those masters of the Glorious City to show up in advance. Otherwise, once our people show up, they may be scared and run away, and then it will be difficult to take back the totem..."
Ryan: "Yeah. Then let's act according to plan B. Let's create some trouble first."
Canossa: “Okay~”
Now we see Elder Habu appearing at the auction site, and the other captured Coleman warriors are probably in the auction warehouse. We must rescue them. But none of the bearers of the three divine totems of fire, wood, and strength have appeared, so it is obviously not the best time to take action.
The high-end combat capabilities of both sides are in the dark, giving people a feeling of shooting without a target.
However, this situation had been anticipated and a plan had been prepared.
Soon, the dance music ended and the warm-up dance party before the auction also ended.
The two originally wanted to take the initiative to create some trouble to "lure the snake out of its hole", but at this time, trouble came to them automatically.
Canossa looked at the young nobles walking towards him and smiled softly, "It seems that we don't need to take the initiative to cause trouble..."
"yes."
Ryan looked at the people coming towards him and sneered.
The leader of the other side had a signature green hair, and he was an old acquaintance, the eldest son of the Black Wind Territory, George Rosas.
…
When Young Master George saw Canossa, whose figure made people breathe faster, he no longer had eyes for anyone else.
He walked over, completely ignoring Ryan, his male companion, and gave Canossa a noble salute that he thought was very gentlemanly, and introduced himself: "Beautiful Miss Canossa, my name is George Rosas, and Valentin Rosas is my father."
Under normal circumstances, if a professional businessman like Canossa encountered a young master from a grand duke's family who took the initiative to show his goodwill, no matter how unhappy he was, he would have to respond.
But now, she glanced at the young master and responded coldly: "Oh. What's the matter?"
“…”
When Young Master George heard this cold tone, his expression froze, and the doubt in his eyes disappeared in an instant.
All the members of the "Redwood Chamber of Commerce" were detained in the prison of the City Lord's Mansion. Without his order, no one could bail out the prisoners.
The young master originally thought that he had Canossa in his grasp, and he had already imagined that she would definitely obey his orders and obediently climb onto the bed and beg him to let her go...
But unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, no one showed up. When I asked, I found out that Canossa actually came to the banquet hall.
George did not hide the lustful look in his eyes at all, and said again: "President Canossa, it's an honor to meet you..."
But before he could finish his words, Canossa interrupted him and said, "No need to be honored. I don't want to know you."
Every word he spoke was full of nitpicking.
“…”
Hearing this, the smile on George's face immediately faded and his brows frowned.
Oops, this is the wrong opening.
Could it be that Kanossa doesn't care about the lives of the people from the Redwood Chamber of Commerce, and doesn't intend to continue doing business in their Black Wind Territory?
But no matter what, he was a high-ranking noble and was offended by a lowly businessman, which made him a little angry.
Since you won’t take the soft approach, let’s take the hard approach.
The next moment, Young Master George's face changed, and he took off the little bit of aristocratic self-restraint he pretended to have. He was no longer polite and sneered, "You are just a mere businessman. Do you think I'm giving you face?"
In front of nobles, merchants, no matter how rich they are, are inferior people.
Since they were planning to swallow up the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce anyway, he had no intention of giving the president any face.
Seeing his true colors revealed, Canossa no longer had any interest in dealing with this playboy whose head was full of filth.
This kind of opponent is too low-level.
She held her forehead and pointed at Ryan beside her and said, "This is His Majesty Ryan of Black Dragon City. He has full authority to represent my Chamber of Commerce. If you have anything to say, you can talk to him."
"hehe?"
Being confronted again, Young Master George's face completely fell.
Oh, it turns out that you have a backer on the list, no wonder you don’t feel so confident.
Now I want to see who in the Glorious Kingdom can still be your backer!
At this time, he set his eyes on Ryan who was standing beside him, tilted his mouth and asked with a squinting look: "Who are you?"
Because Ryan didn't wear a mask this time, and his clothes were very different from his previous image as a wasteland hunter. Although I had glanced at him before, I didn't recognize him.
But after looking at each other, George felt that she looked vaguely familiar.
Before he could think about it, Ryan showed a half-smile and greeted him, "Master George, nice to see you again."
"Do we know each other?"
George was puzzled when he heard the tone.
A moment later, he remembered something and froze to the spot as if struck by lightning.
This sounded like the tone of an acquaintance saying goodbye, but to George's ears it was like the death moaning of the Grim Reaper holding a scythe.
He was so familiar with this voice...
He finally remembered this look!
Shit, isn't this the crow-beaked masked "devil" who almost killed me several times in the desert ruins before? !
When Ryan saw that he recognized him, he glared at him and said teasingly, "Oh, you remember?"
"you……"
This look seems to have magical power.
It was as if he had cast the second-level magic [Weak Ray]. Before he could even touch him, all of a sudden all of his strength was drained from Young Master George, and he collapsed completely.
The next moment, a pool of yellowish-brown liquid suddenly flowed out from his crotch. It turned out that he had peed his pants out of fright.
“You…you…”
His face was pale, and he used his hands and feet to try to retreat away from the devil. His eyes were full of fear, as if he had gone mad, and he cried, "Don't come over here , don't come over here!"
The few playboys who followed along were already confused. What was going on?
The young lord of Black Wind Territory was actually scared to death?
There's no ghost on the other side, is it so scary?
…
Originally, Ryan and the other two were the focus of the banquet hall, and what happened between them was naturally seen by everyone else in the hall.
Before, when they saw Young Master George go to find Canossa, those people were planning to watch a good show.
The onlookers also wanted to know whether the beautiful Black Gold President could escape the clutches of this lustful young man.
And whether the "Black Dragon City Lord" named Ryan can keep his female companion.
But obviously, everyone thought it was impossible.
The Rosas family is one of the "Five Glorious Families" and now it is in his territory. Even if Young Master George uses force against the President of Canossa, no one can stop him.
But who would have thought that before the expected excitement could happen, the man in the white cloak scared Young Master George to death with just a simple greeting?
Could it be that a mysterious extraordinary person used some vicious and insidious trick?
…
Ryan had intended to make a big fuss, but he was also a little disgusted with the young master George who had been frightened to the point of peeing. The strong smell of urine made people feel as if they were punching him, it would be like smashing a pile of shit, splattering everywhere.
Ryan pursed his lips. He had expected the other party to yell at him and slap him in the face. But he just gave up like that, which made him feel no sense of accomplishment at all.
But there is always no shortage of villains in the enemy's territory.
At this moment, a group of people suddenly broke into the banquet hall.
A young man with a defiant look came over aggressively, leading a group of guards wearing light armor and holding weapons.
When others saw this young man, they immediately recognized his identity.
Ryan listened to the whispers of others and found out that this guy with green hair was the eldest son of the "Rosas Family", Peter Rosas, the real prince with real power.
He is the biological brother of "Prince Harper" who was killed by Guy in the ruins last time.
No wonder it looked familiar.
Ryan just coldly watched this group of people walk straight up to him. He didn't rush to take action, but wanted to see what this guy was going to do.
The young man named Peter took a look and said without any emotion: "President Canossa, you are suspected of 'illegal operation' and violated the laws of the territory. Now we are going to arrest you."
After a pause, he ordered the executioners around him, "Come here, put on handcuffs! Take him away!"
The charges are naturally false ones. When they are put in jail, they will have the final say on what charges they will be charged with.
…
Finally, a big show was staged, and the spectators became excited.
Especially those bosses of the chambers of commerce who were hostile to "black gold" began to feel excited in their hearts.
"I knew it. The Black Gold Chamber of Commerce now holds the formula for the Black Mist Anti-Toxin Potion. It would be fine if they just kept quiet about making money, but now they come to this auction to show off. Tsk tsk, now they're probably not making any money, but are in big trouble."
"Haha, I had expected this. It's ridiculous that those idiots from Anthony of the 'Shark Chamber of Commerce' still dreamed of cooperating with Black Gold. It's simply stupid..."
"Yes, I have long said that the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce is doomed, but some people still don't believe it. Let's wait and see. This time, Canossa will come to us on his own, and the Black Gold will completely collapse."
“…”
Everyone can predict that with Canossa being arrested today, the "Black Gold Chamber of Commerce" will soon collapse!
This is absolutely great news for small chambers of commerce like theirs that are usually overwhelmed by black money.
…
But the development of the plot is very surprising.
Faced with the sword and the axe, the president of Canossa did not show any fear on his face.
Instead, she looked at the man beside her expectantly and said calmly, "Lord Ryan, if they want to arrest me too..."
From the gentle and sad tone, it seemed that she felt that this young man named Ryan could still save her.
At this moment, everyone thought that it was stupid for Canossa to say this.
The fate is determined when the sword and the axe are at hand.
Prince Peter is the eldest son of the Rosas family. His appearance means that this is the intention of the top leaders of the Glorious Kingdom.
No one could save her.
Rebellion?
In the territory, the only result of resistance is being massacred.
Even if there are strong men like Dragonlance Sam among the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce, they will surely die under the siege of the Legion.
…
Seeing that Canossa placed its last hope on Ryan, Prince Peter sneered and couldn't help wanting to expose the truth.
Because he had just received detailed information from his uncle.
The "Ryan Hermes" in front of him is just a bluffing guy.
"Haha, President Canossa, if you are counting on this guy to save you, you will be disappointed. This guy is just an insignificant character under the command of Princess Omar. He can't save you."
Prince Peter's eyes flashed with coldness, and he said arrogantly: "Besides, even if it was Ymir Spurgen who came in person today, she would not be able to save the person that my Rosas family wanted to capture! This is what I said!"
There is no one who can save the people that their Glorious Kingdom wants to capture!
Even the royal families of the two empires can’t do it!
Peter's words revealed Ryan's origins, and everyone understood that this mysterious "Black Dragon City Lord" was not so mysterious after all.
"Oh, so you are Princess Oma's subordinate..."
"No wonder... It turns out that 'Black Dragon City' is a new territory created by Princess Ymir? However, Her Highness Ymir is not the city lord, but is with this person?"
"Haha, she's just a stray dog that failed in the political struggle. What kind of waves can she make? No matter where this 'Black Dragon City' is, it is not worthy of being compared with the Glorious City. Only the title of princess can still scare people..."
"Tsk tsk, this guy has a nice appearance. I was almost fooled just now. Now it seems that he not only has the eldest princess of Omar by his side, but also the president of Kanosha of Heijin. He is really lucky."
"Isn't this a liar? Haha, he was pretending to be so conscientious just now, but now his female companion is about to be arrested and he doesn't even dare to say a word. What a coward..."
"In this situation, does he dare to speak?"
“…”
A group of onlookers suddenly felt that things were becoming more and more interesting.
I originally thought it was just a matter of the "Black Gold Chamber of Commerce", but I didn't expect it to involve Princess Omar who has disappeared for more than half a year.
There are even some romantic scandals in it.
…
It seemed that Peter wanted to humiliate him deliberately. He said he would arrest the person, but he kept talking for a long time before taking any action.
Ryan and Canossa were surrounded by a group of executioners. They looked helpless and were being judged by everyone's eyes.
At this time, no one dared to speak up to help.
Even those chambers of commerce and nobles who had been on good terms with Black Gold before, no one dared to say a word.
Canossa didn't say anything else. He looked discouraged and ready to "surrender."
At this critical moment, what no one expected was that the guy named Ryan spoke up: "Tsk tsk, now any cat or dog can be called a prince..."
Hearing this, Prince Peter was not angry.
I was worried that I couldn't find an excuse to arrest them together.
He simply gave another cold order: "You are suspected of insulting the Rosas royal family. Now I declare that you are also under arrest. I want to see if your master, who has disappeared, can rescue you!"
Ryan glanced at him, not caring about the arrest warrant, and asked, "I have one last word for you. Do you want to hear it?"
"Your last words?"
Prince Peter raised his eyebrows and showed some interest. "Who wants to listen..."
Ryan imitated the guy's previous arrogant tone and said, "No one who comes today can save your life. This is what I said."
Hearing this, Prince Peter did not feel threatened at all. He shook his head and thought it was ridiculous. "Really?"
He turned around, looked at the silent Canossa, and said sarcastically: "It seems that the guy you asked for help, President Canossa, is not only a liar, but also a fool."
…
Everyone in the banquet hall thought that the arrest of Canossa and Ryan was a foregone conclusion.
But one person doesn't think so.
That was Young Master George, who was lying limp on the ground.
He looked at his cousin coming forward, and instead of being happy, he was horrified.
Even if everyone around him thought that the guy named Ryan was a "coward" and a "fool"...
But only he knew that the man in front of him was not a good person. He was a ruthless person who would kill people if he disagreed with someone.
He didn't want his good cousin to be killed again, so he said anxiously: "Peter, be careful, he is very powerful!"
"Haha, awesome?"
As if he heard a joke, Prince Peter sneered and glanced at George who was frightened to the point of peeing on the ground. His meaning was obvious: You are a frightened loser, but I am not.
George was filled with fear at the moment. He thought to himself that a normal person might not dare to do that, but the guy in front of him was not only powerful, but also a "madman" who really dared to kill people!
He opened his mouth to say something, but when he caught a glimpse of Ryan's numb expression, like a cold-blooded butcher, he knew it was too late.
He was too familiar with this expression.
Prince Peter didn't take it seriously at all, and continued to brag: "Haha, does he dare to do anything here? If he touches me, even his master Ymir can't save him..."
Before he could finish pretending, his voice stopped abruptly.
There was a loud bang in the air.
"Bang!"
Just when the guards hadn't reacted yet, they suddenly felt a strong wind blowing towards them.
They vaguely sensed a sense of crisis, but when they blinked, nothing seemed to be happening.
At this time, the only third-level guard beside Peter saw the rapidly moving shadow and shouted, "Be careful! Protect His Royal Highness!"
But it's too late.
The guards then discovered that there was one more person among them.
…
Ryan grabbed Prince Peter's neck expressionlessly and hung him in the air.
The prince, whose face turned blue rapidly due to lack of oxygen, struggled to get out, but how could his frail body of a wizard break free from the iron- like grip?
"It's over..."
George, who was not far away, looked at this familiar scene with an expected expression: This madman really dared to kill people.
