LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

As soon as these words came out, everyone present, without exception, still dared not speak.

Without a doubt, if they all attacked together, they could definitely kill the “Dion” they saw in front of them on the spot!

But the question was… who would take the lead?

Horus Mills had been beaten to the point of being unconscious!

Moreover, he was reduced to this state with just three slaps and two stomps!

Horus Mills was so easily defeated, so… no matter who took the lead among those present, none would likely escape death. Seeing that no one dared to speak up, Eloise Hawson’s face darkened in frustration. She gritted her teeth and said, “There are so many of us here. Are we really afraid of one ‘Dion’?”This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

No sooner had she spoken than a voice from the crowd retorted, “If you’re so capable, you go first. If you dare to lead, so will we!”

Eloise Hawson was left speechless. Despite being the first seat in Mycintia, she could not match Horus Mills in personal combat power. Horus Mills had been beaten into the ground. If she were to act, could she even withstand one kick from “Dion”? For a moment, she didn’t know what to do.

Just then, Han Mills, on the stage, suddenly spoke up, “When that guy comes out, I’ll go first!”

His words were met with ridicule.

“You must be joking. You were already defeated outside. Now you’re still eager to go first. You really don’t learn from your mistakes!”

“Exactly! Your grandfather is almost finished now. What are you trying to prove?”

“We can’t speak like that. Han Mills clearly shows strength when he meets a strong opponent. Let him take the first hit. We can all attack with hidden weapons later. I refuse to believe we can’t gain the upper hand!”

“That’s a good idea!”

“Right, isn’t there a woman following ‘Dion’? The one called Sandra Simpson. She doesn’t know any secret methods at all. We can target her first, then we should be able to kill ‘Dion’ on the spot!”

“But who can guarantee that the one called Sandra Simpson is just a weak woman who doesn’t know any secret methods? Remember, before ‘Dion’ used secret methods, we all mistook him for an ordinary young man!”

No one knew who said the last words, but they made a lot of sense to the crowd. Doubt filled their minds once again.

They wondered…

Was Sandra Simpson also an extraordinary practitioner?

If she was an extraordinary practitioner, then even if everyone attacked with hidden weapons, it would be in vain!

Just when the crowd was unable to reach a consensus, Carl Chambers quietly pulled Eloise Hawson aside and whispered, “I have a plan, but I’m not sure if I should share.”

Eloise Hawson, whose expression was changing, said, “Speak.”

Carl Chambers squinted his eyes and said, “Our goal now is the Nanites. If the Nanites are obtained, it doesn’t matter who lives or dies, right?”

Although Eloise Hawson hated Jun Chester immensely at this time, she couldn’t deny this point and coldly said, “I know that without you having to tell me.”

Carl Chambers seriously said, “I observed earlier that ‘Dion’ attacked Horus Mills not because he wanted to snatch the Moras, but for another reason!”

A confused Eloise Hawson asked, “What do you mean?”

Carl Chambers explained, “‘Dion’ easily defeated Horus Mills without any retaliation. With his combat power, if he wanted the Moras, why would he need to provoke public outrage and kill Horus Mills in public? Clearly, his actions were purely in defense of Miss Myers! I think he only acted because Horus Mills treated Miss Myers like a slave. It’s that simple!”

Eloise Hawson was even more puzzled and asked, “What are you trying to say?”

Carl Chambers took a deep breath and cautiously said, “Horus Mills just threatened to kill Miss Myers, but you said it was a family matter. I guess you were actually worried about Miss Myers’ life, weren’t you?”

Eloise Hawson’s face changed slightly, but she flatly denied it, “I’m not that kind-hearted!”

Carl Chambers laughed and said, “You two are half-sisters, no matter how deep the personal grudge, it is your own business and has nothing to do with others! Just now, when Horus Mills wanted to kill Miss Myers, you felt that he was disrespecting you, so you couldn’t bear to watch.”

Eloise Hawson frowned and asked, “What does all this have to do with the Nanites?”

Carl Chambers squinted and said, “If ‘Dion’ truly defended your sister just now, then the only person who can speak to him now is you! After all, you are the biological sister of Phoenix Myers. Why not represent Mycintia and negotiate with ‘Dion’?”

Eloise Hawson retorted irritably, “Negotiate how? Rushing to get myself flirted with? I’m not that cheap!”

Carl Chambers laughed, “That’s not what I meant. It’s better to make peace than to fight. The value of the Nanites has been fully demonstrated. Everyone here is scrambling to get them. Why not… give ‘Dion’ some fake Nanites, make him the real master of this auction, and then let him use the fake Nanites to get the real money from the people present. We can split the profits with ‘Dion’ afterwards. Isn’t that a good plan? As for the real Nanites in ‘Dion’s hands, whether we get them or not isn’t so important anymore. What’s important is that we form an alliance with him.”

At this point, Carl Chambers added, “I have this idea now, purely for the overall situation. With the strength shown by ‘Dion’, trying to kill him would be like destroying the jade and stone. Better to make peace.”

Eloise Hawson carefully considered Carl Chambers’ idea. The more she thought about it, the more shocked she was. She squinted at Carl Chambers and sneered, “You really are wily with age!”

Carl Chambers laughed, “Earlier, I advocated for attacking him together. Now, after witnessing his terrifying power, if I still advocate for attacking him, wouldn’t I have lived in vain all these years?”

Eloise Hawson narrowed her eyes, “So… should I give it a try?”

Carl Chambers chuckled, “I’ll accompany you. At least there will be someone to back you up. By the way, if this plan fails, I have another one.”

Eloise Hawson asked, “What plan?”

Carl Chambers grinned, “There’s a lava trap beneath the backstage treasure house. If we really can’t come to an agreement, then we might as well go down together.”

Eloise Hawson was shocked, “How did I not know about this?”

Carl Chambers just smiled and didn’t answer.

Meanwhile, Jun Chester had already been led by Phoenix Myers to the backstage treasure house. Just as he was about to open the door and enter, Jun Chester suddenly stopped and raised his hand, “Wait.”

Phoenix Myers was confused, “What’s wrong?”

Jun Chester reached his hand into the door of the treasure house, squinting his eyes, “The temperature in here is a bit different from outside.”

Phoenix Myers was slightly taken aback, but didn’t pay much attention to it. She glanced back and found that no one was following, so she anxiously probed, “Jun?”

Jun Chester sternly scolded, “You also call me Jun? No respect for your elders!”

In that moment… Phoenix Myers was on the verge of tears.
