Chapter 69: Jun Chester is furious, and the consequences are severe!
Jun Chester had always been somewhat puzzled. Why had the twelve Black Knights of Cinder Chapel followed Krolin to Dirtmouth? Were they here to help Krolin? However, judging from what the twelve Black Knights had done in the square before, there seemed to be another hidden story. As he thought about this, Jun Chester looked indifferently towards the door.
“Come in.”
The leader of the twelve Black Knights, Black Dragon, entered the office. Without saying a word, he knelt down on one knee first.
“Lord Chester!”
“May Lord Chester live a long and prosperous life!”
Jun Chester chuckled.
“Have you been a slave in Cinder Chapel for so long that you can’t even speak normally? Speak what’s on your mind and don’t waste time.”
Black Dragon was silent, but soon became serious again. He stood up and reported.
“We came to Dirtmouth to provide Lord Chester with some intelligence! Cinder Chapel received a report nine days ago, saying that you have already ordered the Lordran army to prepare for battle, and your target is Cinder Chapel!”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Upon hearing this, a bone-chilling coldness flashed through Jun Chester’s eyes.
Nine days ago.
On the day David Chester kidnapped Lyvia, Jun Chester had said three things to Andrew White.
The first thing.
He wanted David Chester to be worse than dead! He had done it! Now David Chester was indeed worse than dead!
The second thing.
They would kill everyone in Cyand who had interests related to David Chester! He had done this as well. During the past nine days, not only Cyand, but also countries like Maple and Orchids, and even the top circles of the world, were shrouded in a murderous haze!
The whole world trembled for it!
The third thing.
All the Lordran forces must be ready, for they were going to level Cinder Chapel! Now, Black Dragon said that Cinder Chapel had already received a report about their attack on Cinder Chapel nine days ago?
Jun Chester stared coldly at Black Dragon.
“Do you know who leaked this information?”
Black Dragon shook his head.
“I don’t know, but I guess there must be a problem within Lordran.”
Jun Chester thought of one person.
Ian Mills.
Only this old fellow could possibly leak information. After all, he had a history. Colbert Osborn’s former assistant, Larry Crimson, had been Ian Mills’ man, and he had died an untimely death.
Jun Chester pondered for a moment, then asked indifferently.
“What will Cinder Chapel do?”
Black Dragon hesitated for a moment.
“The Lord has already taken all the soldiers and left Grandsilk Peak! As for where they went, I do not know. Moreover, the commotion you caused in the Illusory Hall before was too great; even the Hollow could not hide it from them for too long. It seems that they already know your specific strength. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have run away like this!”
After listening, Jun Chester’s face was cold.
After a while, Jun Chester finally spoke slowly.
“I need more information!”
Black Dragon swallowed nervously and spoke solemnly.
“Lord Chester, please find someone to lead us in the investigation together.”
Jun Chester looked at Black Dragon.
It seemed as if he easily saw through his thoughts.
“Do you think you don’t have the ability, or do you think I have concerns about you?”
Black Dragon’s eyes trembled.
He clenched his right hand into a fist and held it to his chest, answering with his head bowed.
“We were once slaves to Cinder Chapel and have done enough bad things over the years. It is a great kindness that Lord Chester can spare us! We are willing to give our lives for you! However… We don’t want to make things difficult for you! Please send someone to monitor us. If we have even the slightest hint of rebellion, tear our bodies into ten thousand pieces!”
Jun Chester looked at Black Dragon.
“Dyson Bell, you are one of us! You were born in Loverland, started learning martial arts at the age of five, followed Duffy Tickner at the age of eight, and were captured by Cinder Chapel at the age of fifteen! Your master Duffy Tickner died at the hands of the previous generation of the twelve Black Knights of Cinder Chapel! After that, you were imprisoned in the Illusory Hall by Cinder Chapel! It took you ten years of imprisonment to finally obey Cinder Chapel, killing the previous generation of the twelve Black Knights and avenging your master! Do you know why I saved you when I left the Illusory Hall dungeon? Since I was ten years old, I have challenged fighters from all over the world every summer! Your master Duffy Tickner was defeated by me, but he did teach me a lot! In a way, we have known each other for a long time!”
Hearing Jun Chester’s words, Black Dragon’s eyes widened in surprise.
He never would have imagined that Lord Chester knew his true identity so well! Moreover, Jun Chester had defeated his mentor, Duffy Tickner, at the age of ten? What a shocking talent for cultivation! It wasn’t until today that Black Dragon understood who the person his mentor could not forget was-Jun Chester!
At this moment, Black Dragon was extremely excited. Over the years, he had never mentioned his past to anyone. He had been imprisoned in the Illusory Hall for ten years, suffering unimaginable pain. In the end, he had no choice but to take the Blood Pellets from Cinder Chapel to avenge his mentor by slaying their enemy with his own hands. Now, the past was being uncovered like a scar.
Black Dragon trembled all over, tears falling from the corners of his eyes. Jun Chester looked at him indifferently, his eyes slightly trembling. He spoke softly, “Go. Find out the whereabouts of Cinder Chapel and report to me immediately!” Black Dragon knelt down, his voice like thunder, “Lord Chester, I am willing to offer my life for you!” With that, he knocked his forehead on the ground as if worshiping a god or showing respect to a close friend.
After completing his salute, Black Dragon left. Jun Chester also left the office, with Colbert Osborn waiting nearby. His arm had already been bandaged. Seeing Jun Chester coming out, he hurriedly approached. Jun Chester instructed, “Go to Badfella Stannard first for treatment. Then, work with Andrew to thoroughly investigate a matter for me. They already know that we are gathering an army to attack Cinder Chapel! If the traitor is from the army, kill them all; if it’s Ian Mills, bring me his head!”
Colbert Osborn’s eyelids trembled slightly as he coldly responded, “Yes, sir!” Jun Chester didn’t say anything more. He left the Commercial Tower without even raising his head, just waving his hand. The hundreds of soldiers stationed on the surrounding four buildings all disappeared.
At 2:30 in the afternoon, representatives from various countries’ business sectors all arrived at the Commercial Tower. It was as if the huge upheaval that occurred in the morning had never happened. However, everyone who had experienced the morning’s events was undoubtedly frightened. These people were all top figures in the world’s circles. Now, none of them dared to mention anything about the morning’s events. They all thought it was best not to discuss matters related to Cinder Chapel. Little did they know that the upheaval in the morning was all because of Jun Chester!
At this moment, Jun Chester sat in the conference room on the third floor of the Commercial Tower with a cold face. Sitting beside him was a woman in her thirties wearing frameless glasses and a neat suit. She looked mature and professional, but her charming face was full of tension. After a series of calculations, she realized that the total amount the alliance should have paid to Lordran over the past seven years was 15, 360 billion! But Jun Chester’s account had only about a third of that amount-4, 000 billion! Jun Chester was very angry; the consequences should be very serious.
