Chapter 1220: Chapter 1220: The Hongmen Banquet Chapter 1220: Chapter 1220: The Hongmen Banquet “Where is he!”
As the scout’s voice rang out, the kneeling Left Minister suddenly stood up!
“Replying to the Left Minister, we are at the Zephyr Hotel, and we witnessed the murderer who killed Master King.” The scout took out a monitor from his bosom, knelt on the ground, and respectfully handed it over with both hands: “These are the photos and videos we shot. Please have the king and Left Minister review them.”
“A victory banquet?” The Left Minister strode up to the scout, grabbed the monitor, and looked at the photos with an indifferent gaze.
“Indeed! It is this very person!” Not far away, Solaris Grove, seeing the image of the man on the screen, spoke with an instantly icy tone.
He had been forced to break a finger!
A great humiliation!
“Please, Your Majesty, seek justice for me!”
Thump!
The Left Minister knelt on the ground.
The usually composed man found it very difficult to stay rational whilst bearing the pain of losing a son.
“Have you made certain that this is indeed the man?”
Everton Davenport pointed at the scout and asked, “There’s no mistake?”
“I saw with my own eyes, it is indeed this man!” The scout replied, “Outside the Zephyr Hotel, there are photos of this man on the huge screen. It is said that the Zephyr Hotel cleared the venue today, serving only him.”
“The Zephyr Hotel is a Donovan Family property. After the deaths of Branley Sinclair and Finnegan Springs, Dawson Carmichael took over again. It seems that this is a victory celebration.”
Ishmael Will placed his hands in front of him and calmly began, “Their arrogance is quite blatant.”
“Please, Your Majesty, avenge The North Sea!”
Thump!
Inside the royal court, the civil officials knelt in unison.
The Left Minister was the head of the civil officials.
Now that the Left Minister’s only son had been killed, they demonstrated their stance.
“This matter is related to The North Sea’s reputation. If we let the murderer provoke us like this on our own turf in Star City, where would The North Sea’s prestige stand?”
The Right Minister walked out from the crowd and stood in the center of the great hall: “I boldly request that His Majesty dispatch someone to execute this felon!”
“Please Your Majesty, execute this felon!”
Behind him, the military officers knelt in unison.
“I actually want to see what this man is capable of.” Everton Davenport was equally puzzled; someone who could cause Solaris Grove such an embarrassing defeat was not common in this world.
After all, that was a renowned Great Grandmaster!
“Who will go?”
He lifted his head, looking around at those below.
“I will!”
Solaris Grove, holding a longbow, spoke coldly: “I am dissatisfied with my defeat and wish to reclaim my honor!”
“Kieran Cook, Vaughn Cook, you two brothers, accompany Solaris Grove!” Everton Davenport pointed to the two men below and waved his hand: “Make it quick! The North Sea’s restoration is imminent. We don’t have time to waste on him.”
Kieran Cook and Vaughn Cook, the two brothers, had been famous for a long time and had a considerable reputation in The North Sea.
“As you wish!”
The three of them turned and left.
“Any news about the Bead Pulse?”
After the three left, Everton Davenport looked at the Left Minister: “I understand the pain of losing your son, but you still have to oversee the nation’s affairs.”
“There has been no news of the Bead Pulse. But according to the agreement, Isabella Warm is due tomorrow, bringing the Divine Dragon Tripod to present to His Majesty.”
The Left Minister replied, head bowed and voice somber.
“Any news about Baylor?”
Everton Davenport’s face showed a slight tender smile when he mentioned his daughter.
After the failure of the national war, Everton Davenport had made his escape early, arriving in Star City.
Baylor Davenport, too, had been stationed here.
Years later, Everton Davenport began to implement the planned scheme.
Baylor Davenport returned to the country, lurking by Anna Harris’s side, and with Kyler Reed’s help, she continued to get closer, acquainted with Anna Harris.
Then, she successfully accompanied Anna Harris abroad and back to the country.
During this time, she completely took control of everything concerning Anna Harris.
Finally, she appeared beside Julius Reed as a friend from Quella Radcliffe, trying to entice and ascertain the current status of the holy leader.
Later, as The North Sea prepared for the restoration, Baylor Davenport set up a small court in Gonzalez City to distract Julius Reed’s attention.
Thinking of his daughter, pride shone in Everton Davenport’s eyes.
“Her Highness is well, please be assured, Your Majesty!” The Right Minister spoke with a smile: “Being able to move freely around the holy leader, there’s probably no second person capable of that in the world.”
“Luckily, it was Baylor’s message that made me change the strategy and ally with Pendleton.” Everton Davenport’s right hand tapped lightly on the armrest, his voice tinged with melancholy: “Since the holy leader cannot be killed, then I’ll simply seize Demarco Mount and become the new holy leader! At that time, with the combined strength of the entire world, we will sanction him!”
Having said that.
He stood up and looked at the Left Minister, somewhat wearily saying, “Once that person is dead, report to me.”
…
“Where is the Holy Master?”
Zephyr Hotel, first-floor restaurant.
The restaurant, capable of seating over a hundred people, had only two patrons at the moment, Elaenor Wood and Zain Ellsworth.
But there were dozens of waiters standing by.
The manager bustled back and forth, dripping with sweat.
“I am sorry, I do not recognize any Holy Master.” The manager, standing beside Elaenor Wood, smiled and replied.
“Oh, then let me ask a different question. Where is Mr. Reed, who invited me to dine?”
Elaenor Wood picked up a glass of red wine and gently swirled it.
He took a small sip.
“Mr. Reed is occupied with something important. Once he’s finished, he will naturally meet with you,” the manager answered truthfully.
“Convey a message for me.”
Elaenor Wood set down the glass and picked up some chopsticks, delicately picking up a piece of meat and chewing on it.
It was very delicious.
Star City’s top hotel truly lived up to its reputation.
“Just say…”
He thought for a moment and set down his chopsticks, “Without merit, one shouldn’t accept rewards. With such a gracious invitation, I feel guilty at heart.”
“Please rest assured,” the manager smiled and began to speak, “Mr. Reed says this is to thank you for your help.”
“Help?”
Not only Elaenor Wood, but even Zain Ellsworth were surprised.
“What help?”
Zain Ellsworth asked vigilantly.
He had intended to check the food for poison, but remembering that the person sitting in front of him was the Medicine God, a once in a millennium genius, he simply sat back down in his chair.
“That… I am not aware.” The manager smiled, “I am simply relaying Mr. Reed’s message.”
After saying that, he stepped back three meters behind Elaenor Wood.
“How interesting.”
Elaenor Wood shook his head, somewhat perplexed, “Since we’ve come, let us be at ease. Let’s eat!”
He had just picked up his chopsticks, not even having the chance to grab food.
A dangerous aura suddenly struck!
Snap!
Elaenor Wood grabbed a white paper fan from the table and violently fanned it open!
Clang!
An arrow was deflected, embedding itself into the marble floor of the hotel!
Of the whole arrow, only the tail remained visible above the surface.
Whoosh!
All the waiters in the hotel, including the manager, scattered in a rush.
The entire first-floor hall was left with just Elaenor Wood and Zain Ellsworth.
“Medicine God, it’s an ambush!”
Zain Ellsworth put down his bowl and chopsticks, coldly surveying the surroundings, “This is a feigned banquet by the Holy Master!”
“Not necessarily!”
Elaenor Wood calmly waved the white paper fan, looking in the direction from which the arrow had come, “I can assert that these people are certainly not arranged by the Holy Master. Such crude methods couldn’t possibly harm me.”
He stood up and suddenly looked up!
Two people were standing on the ceiling!
Each wielding a sword, they descended sharply!
“Deal with them.”
Elaenor Wood folded his white paper fan and settled back into his chair, calmly pouring a glass of red wine.
Minor characters were unworthy of his personal intervention.
Thunk!
Zain Ellsworth leapt up, a wisp of white smoke appearing from his palm!
“Poison!”
After sensing the danger, the two assailants didn’t wait to fall; they shifted in mid-air and landed on the floor.
“Kill them.”
Elaenor Wood picked up the red wine glass and spoke indifferently.
