Chapter 1107 Cohesion
Chapter 1107: Chapter 1107 Cohesion
Holland Keller, himself the chairman of the Alchemist Association of the South Outlands, was a "Grade One Alchemist."
Of course, if it were only a Grade One Alchemist, he wouldn’t pose a great threat to the Gagnon Family; the most threatening was the green-robed middle-aged man, Forest Coldring, who followed behind him.
Forest Coldring’s strength was no less than the Gagnon Family’s strongest member, Alaric Gagnon.
Three months earlier, Holland Keller had brought Forest Coldring to visit the Gagnon Family, and their target at the time was Wyatt Barnes.
However, because Alaric Gagnon intervened, and with the three Great Protectors of the Gagnon Family watching closely, they failed to gain any advantage and only managed to leave in embarrassment.
Three months later, they returned with reinforcements they had recruited.
One of the helpers was the chairman of the Artifact Refiner Association of the South Outlands, Canaan Moore.
Canaan Moore, a Grade One Artifact Refiner deeply immersed in the "Art of Artifact Refining," had limited accomplishments in the Martial Dao; his status was comparable to Holland Keller’s, both being ordinary warriors at the first level of Martial Emperor Realm.
However, Holland Keller sought his help not for his strength, but for the person who constantly protected him.
That person was the blue-robed old man always following behind Canaan Moore.
In terms of strength, the blue-robed old man was no less powerful than Forest Coldring or Alaric Gagnon; he was a remarkably strong fighter.
Another helper was the current head of the Yez Family from Northumberland, Jakai Yez.
Jakai Yez, a rare martial prodigy of the Yez Family, had successfully broken through to the Martial Emperor Realm in his forties, becoming a Martial Emperor powerhouse.
Now, his strength was also no less than that of Forest Coldring or Alaric Gagnon.
The three fighters, each equal in strength to Alaric Gagnon, were Holland Keller’s greatest reliance on this trip.
He believed that as long as the Gagnon Family wasn’t foolish, they absolutely wouldn’t dare to confront them directly.
And taking Wyatt Barnes away today would be as easy as flipping his hand.
"Family Head Gagnon, you better choose wisely... Do not let the Gagnon Family suffer unnecessary losses just to display temporary courage."
Holland Keller looked deeply at Randy Gagnon, with a victorious smile on his face.
"Hmph!"
Randy Gagnon snorted coldly and mocked, "What, does Chairman Keller perhaps intend to destroy our Gagnon Family?"
"To destroy the Gagnon Family, I myself do not have that capability... However, if a few Martial Emperors from the Gagnon Family were to fall, I doubt those forces from the inner lands would stand up for the Gagnon Family."
Holland Keller spoke indifferently, his lips curling into a devilish smile towards the end.
"You!!"
Randy Gagnon’s face drastically changed, and he was so angry that his blood surged.
But he also knew that what Holland Keller said was the reality.
To annihilate the Gagnon Family, whether it was Holland Keller, Canaan Moore, or Jakai Yez, none had the courage.
That was because the Gagnon Family was protected by several ’first-class forces’ from the inner lands.
Of course, those ’first-class forces’ would only act if the Gagnon Family were to be annihilated; as long as the Gagnon Family wasn’t destroyed, even if all of the Gagnon Family’s Martial Emperor powerhouses perished, they would not intervene.
Taking a deep breath, Randy Gagnon looked at Forest Coldring with a wary expression, then turned towards Jakai Yez and next looked at the blue-robed old man behind Canaan Moore.
These three Martial Emperor powerhouses were all as strong as their first fighter, Alaric Gagnon.
If the Gagnon Family truly decided to battle them, it would greatly deplete their strength.
The three Great Protectors might not survive.
At this moment, Randy Gagnon found himself in a dilemma.
On one side were several main pillars of the Gagnon Family, each at risk of falling.
On the other side was the future Pillar of Heaven of the Gagnon Family, whom Holland Keller wanted to take away.
To save the main pillars, he had to let go of the future Pillar of Heaven of the Gagnon Family, which would cause the Gagnon Family to lose a rare major opportunity.
That opportunity could propel the Gagnon Family to soar sky-high, even reach the peak of Cloud Skies Continent!
After all, the background of that Pillar of Heaven was frighteningly impressive.
In a previous life, he had stood at the peak of Cloud Skies Continent, and now undergoing his final reincarnation, achieving a peak beyond his previous life was without doubt.
Of course, all this was predicated on his not dying prematurely.
Once dead, there would be no future to speak of.
"If we hand over Elder Barnes, our Gagnon Family will not suffer losses, but Elder Barnes will still be taken away... If we do not hand over Elder Barnes, our Gagnon Family will suffer a great blow, and in the end, Elder Barnes will still be taken away."
"Either way, the result is the same... However, the ’nature’ is completely different!"
"The former would mean we gave up on Elder Barnes, and even if he doesn’t resent us after being captured, our relationship with him would still be shattered; the latter would mean we did our utmost but still couldn’t keep Elder Barnes, and even if he gets captured, he would still appreciate us."
In that instant, Randy Gagnon thought of many things, torn between options.
Finally, he couldn’t help but turn his head to look at Alaric Gagnon, wanting to ask for his opinion.
"Family Head, from today onwards, you decide all matters concerning the Gagnon Family... Whatever your decision, I will support you."
Before Randy Gagnon could even speak, Alaric Gagnon had already expressed his stance.
"Family Head, we will all support you."
Kaizen Gagnon, Elio Gagnon, and Kylen Gagnon also nodded; their attitude was the same as Alaric Gagnon’s.
For a moment, Randy Gagnon felt as if he was shouldering a mountain, a vast and towering mountain, pressing so hard he could hardly breathe.
"If I choose the former, to give up Elder Barnes... once Elder Barnes survives this ordeal and returns to his peak, even if he doesn’t hold the Gagnon Family accountable, he won’t bother with the Gagnon Family anymore."
A single choice was enough to break the "friendship" between the Gagnon Family and Elder Barnes.
"If we choose the latter, the Three Great Protectors and even the old family head are in great danger... Elder Barnes will also be taken away. But if Elder Barnes survives, our Gagnon Family’s future will be bright!"
Another choice would result in severe losses for the Gagnon Family, and Elder Barnes’s fate would be uncertain.
However, once Elder Barnes survived, the Gagnon Family would rise to glory!
Randy Gagnon was caught in a moral dilemma, finding it hard to decide.
"Family Head Gagnon, I hope you can give us an answer within ten breaths... If you don’t respond after ten breaths, we will have no choice but to take matters into our own hands," Chairman Keller said, glancing at Randy Gagnon with a cold smile. "At that point, don’t blame us three parties for forgetting past affections!"
"No need to wait for ten breaths!"
At that moment, Randy Gagnon clenched his teeth and made a decision, "To think you can make us Gagnon Family hand over Elder Barnes is absolutely impossible! From the moment Elder Barnes became our Gagnon Family’s ’First Honorary Minister,’ he has been one of our own."
"Our Gagnon Family, with a heritage of ten thousand years, would never commit an act like ’betray a friend for glory’! Even if it means a fight to the death today, we of the Gagnon Family will do everything in our power to protect Elder Barnes."
Randy Gagnon’s words were resolute and spread far and wide.
On hearing this, the eyes of the Three Great Protectors of the Gagnon Family brightened, and they faced Chairman Keller’s party of five squarely.
Despite knowing that three of their adversaries were powerful enough to instantly defeat them, they showed no fear at that moment.
Everything for the Gagnon Family.
For the Gagnon Family, they would die without regret!
Their actions embodied the meaning of ’Protector’ in their titles, without tarnishing these two words.
Fight!
Randy Gagnon’s words also reached the ears of Alaric Gagnon, making him smile, his earlier unease completely dissipated.
Whoosh!
At the same time, Alaric Gagnon appeared in front of the Three Great Protectors of the Gagnon Family, his face stern as he stared down Chairman Keller’s party.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
...
Before long, figures from all around rapidly approached; these were the Gagnon Family elders who had been watching from afar.
Their hearing was far superior to ordinary members of the Gagnon Family, so they had heard Randy Gagnon’s confrontation with Chairman Keller and had their blood boiling from it.
"To death in battle!"
"To protect Elder Barnes at all costs!"
"To kill Elder Barnes, you’ll have to step over my dead body!"
...
Within moments, a group of Gagnon Family elders had surrounded Chairman Keller and his group, continually shouting loudly with an imposing momentum.
"What?! Those five guys want to handle Elder Barnes?"
Soon, the surrounding Gagnon family members also stirred up.
"Some words, my second uncle initially didn’t allow me to say... but, I think I still need to say them."
One of the Gagnon family members bit his teeth and said, "Just now, my second uncle told me they wanted to take Elder Barnes away, but our head refused."
"Now, our head has declared war on them! However, they are very strong, and our head, the old head, and the three protectors have no chance of winning."
This Gagnon family member said all this in one go.
"Why didn’t you say it earlier?!"
"Want to take Elder Barnes away? Damn it! Our Gagnon Family finally has a ’Grade One Alchemist,’ and nobody should think about taking Elder Barnes!"
"This matter seems to be provoked by the chairman of the alchemists’ guild, ’Chairman Keller’... In my opinion, he feels threatened by Elder Barnes who emerged as the second ’Grade One Alchemist’ from the South Outlands after him, which is why he wants to eliminate Wyatt Barnes."
"If you’re man enough, follow me! Let’s kill that damn Chairman Keller!"
"Let’s go!"
...
Soon, throngs of Gagnon family members swept out massively, surrounding Chairman Keller and his group from all sides, like dark clouds pressing over the city.
"Good! Good!"
Seeing this scene, Randy Gagnon was full of excitement; it was the first time he had witnessed such strong cohesion in their Gagnon Family.
Alaric Gagnon and the three Protectors of the Gagnon Family also smiled at that moment.
Today, even if it meant death, it would not be in vain!
This is the Gagnon Family; they have devoted their lives to protect!
To die for the Gagnon Family was to die without regrets!
"As expected of an ancient family with a heritage of over ten thousand years! This cohesion is unlike any ordinary power... The children of ordinary powers would have fled when disaster strikes, unlike them."
The scene before him astonished Fill Bear.
Even Winnie Romero, seeing the scene unfold, had some of the frost on her beautiful face melt away, touched by the group of Gagnon family members.
Simultaneously, seeing themselves surrounded by Gagnon Family elders and members on every side, Chairman Keller’s group’s expressions were not very pleasant.
Killing a few from the Gagnon Family was a minor issue and would not attract the protection of the ’first-tier powers’ of the Inner Lands.
But once these people were killed, they were also finished!
