A few broken wooden planks blocked the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Crystal Hall, which had been destroyed by Ferdinand.

Next door to the Crystal Hall, in the slightly larger Amber Room, Joe accompanied Ferdinand, quietly awaiting the arrival of the second creditor.

The Amber Room, as the name suggests, is decorated with amber.

Joe was too lazy to complain about the extravagance of this amber room. In short, natural crystals are already ridiculously expensive, and amber, in the upper class of the Medland continent, countless people are superstitious that amber has some kind of mysterious vitality.

Natural crystals are gemstones, while amber is a rare gemstone.

The entire amber hall, the walls, the ceiling, and even the floor, are made of neatly polished carved amber plates, and the whole hall is a magnificent golden yellow, and a mysterious scent of pine resin lingers in the air.

Standing in the Amber Hall, Joe was a little frightened, lest he move a little too much and accidentally destroy an amber plate worth ten thousand gold.

It was Ferdinand, who was smiling down on a sofa and gulping down his wine triumphantly.

Through what happened to Amaury just now, Ferdinand seemed to suddenly think of some good idea, and he was in a good mood at the moment, and he looked at Joe with very hot and kind eyes, like a retired grandfather who saw his young and promising grandson, full of joy and great satisfaction.

"Boom...... Your ...... of the Apophis Palace," Ferdinand sighed softly as he glanced at the amber room, where the walls and ceilings were carved with intricate and magnificent patterns.

Footsteps were heard, and five Lucian men strode in.

In the winter, the five Lucian men all had shaved bald heads, and their scalps were bright enough to pretend to be mirrors.

Their three-dimensional faces are born with a fierce aura, and in their sunken eyes, their turquoise eyes are flashing with fierce light like wild wolves. Their faces were full of neatly repaired beards, rosy lips, and white teeth, which inexplicably gave people the strange feeling of having just eaten flesh and blood.

The men were nearly seven feet tall, and they wore bearskin coats, but there was not even a shirt in the coat, revealing the majestic, angular chest and belly with muscles constantly wriggling.

Around their necks hung a large gold chain almost the thickness of a child's wrist, and under the gold chain of the leader hung a piece of natural dog's head gold the size of a baby's head.

Under the illumination of the lamp, the big gold chain and the dog's head gold shimmered with dazzling golden light.

"Oh, haha, Your Highness Ferdinand, it's so difficult to see you." As soon as the leading Lucian man entered the door, he curled his tongue and shouted loudly with a very heavy local accent: "This ghost weather, I really don't want to go out...... But, damn it, isn't this the end of the year? New Year's Day is just a few days away. ”

"Closing accounts at the end of the year is a matter of course."

The Lucian man reached into the pocket of his coat and pulled out more than two dozen crumpled pieces of paper. He walked up to Ferdinand and threw the piece of paper heavily on the table in front of him, which had been cut out of a whole piece of natural amber.

With his hands clasped in front of his chest, the Lucian man stood in front of Ferdinand, smiling 'hehe' and staring at Ferdinand with fierce eyes: "We brought reporters, Lucia's "Hurricane", Gaul's "La Repubblica", and Binghai's "Kingdom Express...... Well, there are always two dozen newspaper reporters from the non-Deren Empire. ”

"Or, you pay back now."

"Or, tomorrow the entire continent of Medland will know that the crown prince of the Deren Empire, Prince Ferdinand, owes his debts...... Moreover, they also beat up creditors. ”

The Lucia man nodded vigorously: "That's right, you also instigated the lackeys of the Delun Empire to beat the creditors." ”

Qiao coughed heavily: "This gentleman, His Highness Ferdinand, did not order you to be beaten. ”

Lucia's eyes widened, and he stared at Joe viciously: "My name is Anani!" ”

Joe nodded: "Mr. Anani, Your Highness Ferdinand, did not order you to be beaten. ”

Anani shrugged his shoulders as he looked back at his four companions, "But the reporters don't care, they just believe the 'truth' they see." ”

A Lucian man stepped out, lifting his bearskin coat, revealing a wound on the left side of his lower abdomen. It can be seen that it is a wound caused by a weapon such as a dagger, and the person who attacked it is extremely ruthless, and only a little bit will hit the fatal part.

The wound had not yet healed properly, and a trace of black blood could be faintly seen oozing from under the blood scab.

Before Joe and Ferdinand could react, the wounded Lucian man stretched out his fingers to clasp the wound and pulled it to the sides. The blood scab was shattered, the wound was pulled open, and the blood spurted out with a 'snort'.

The blood threw a parabola several feet long, and then sprayed heavily on the golden floor paved with natural amber slabs three feet long and one foot wide.

Joe let out a strange scream.

This is the Apophis Palace.

It was the Apophis Palace, which he spent a lot of money to buy......

The ceiling, floor, and walls of this amber room are all paved with natural amber, which is extremely valuable.

This amber room is a rarity in itself!

This guy actually spilled his blood on the floor......

Joe jumped to his feet and roared, "Catch them, they're spies, they're spies...... Ah, like Amaury, they're a raccoon dog...... Battery? No, beat me to death! ”

"What are you doing in a daze? Beat, beat, beat...... All the consequences, all the responsibility, I am responsible! ”

Joe grinned and roared at the ten Hydra guards standing in the Amber Hall, "Don't forget your responsibilities...... You have come to protect His Highness Ferdinand, and now he is threatened by a group of foreign criminals! ”

At this moment, Joe was really angry...... The hostility he cultivated in the street brawls with his family guards in Tulum Harbor was finally completely aroused...... It was as if he had seen the group of gentlemen he hated the most in Tulum Harbor, and he longed to throw them all into the trench and turn them into the medium of the coral reef!

The corners of the ten Hydra guards curled up slightly, and with a strange smile, they flew away without saying a word.

Five Lucian men who came to the door to ask for debts......

The strongest one, Anani, who has a dog's head gold around his neck, is only the strength of the lower fourth order. His four companions were also at the level of the second and third orders.

And these Hydra secret guards, a sixth-order transcendent of the water.

There is no so-called 'resistance' and 'struggle', and the coercion unleashed by Hydra's secret guards alone directly subdued the five hapless Lucian men, who were easily knocked to the ground.

"Drag it out, out in the snow, and give me a full quarter of an hour!" Joe jumped to his feet and roared: "Big Ivan, big Ivan, these guys are your fellow countrymen, you come to deal with them, drag them out, and fight outside for a quarter of an hour...... Don't let their blood pollute my parlor again! ”

Big Ivan rushed in with a gust of wind: "Oh no, boss, listen to their accents, they're the ones in that part of the icy taiga northeast of Lucia, and the bastards there are a bunch of barbarians, barbarians who don't wipe their butts after shitting...... I'm from the southwest of Lucia, in the alluvial plain of a tributary of the Rhine, and we're civilized people who can read and write...... Our hometowns are tens of thousands of miles away, and we are not fellow villagers! ”

Big Ivan took a dozen Lucian men and arrested five unlucky Lucian men. Soon, there was the sound of heavy flesh pounding outside, as well as the painful wails of Anani and the others.

"Joe, I think, you should be canonized as the Prince of the Empire!" Ferdinand raised his bottle and cheered, and he shouted to Joe, "Why don't you marry my granddaughter, Grey?" Haha, I will definitely canonize you as a prince and give you a province as a fief! ”

At this moment, Ferdinand's gaze at Joe was not only fiery and kind, but also full of some kind of ...... Inexplicable doting!

Ah, if the courtiers of the empire can do this to Joe...... Wipe his ass diligently, and wipe his ass with the most righteous reason, without any trouble......

He, Ferdinand, the crown prince of the Deren Empire, can live happily!

Joe's face was dark.

Several family guards cautiously walked in, carrying buckets and cotton cloths, carefully cleaning up the blood on the ground, and wiping a few amber boards spotlessly.

Joe muttered with a gloomy face: "These guys, they should also have backstage bosses...... Gotta grab it all together...... Hehe, the Lucians will not be tempted, and if they can bring reporters to the door, there must be clever people behind them. ”

Ferdinand looked at the IOUs placed in front of him, frowned and thought for a while: "Ah, I remember...... They were Otoev's men...... Otoev, a big businessman in the liquor business in Hyderabad, also deals in loan sharks, underground boxing rings, etc. ”

"This guy specializes in buying those moldy grains from the Empire's strategic warehouses at low prices, brewing them into low-quality alcohol, and then adding the water pumped out of the Rhine River to make the most inferior liquor and sell it back to Lucia."

"He was able to sell more than 30 million tonnes of metric-grade liquor to Lucia every year. That kind of inferior liquor sells for only 100 gold marks per ton, but his annual income is billions of gold marks, which is a fat and oily man. ”

Ferdinand gritted his teeth and muttered, "Joe, do you believe it?" Otoyev's inferior liquor sells more than 30 million tons a year to Lucia...... Lucia's drunkards, there are too many of them......"

"No matter how big a businessman is, he shouldn't know you're here." Qiao said coldly: "Moreover, he can come to the door so quickly, or bring so many reporters to the door...... There must be something wrong with him. ”

Joe watched in pain as the guards wiped the amber plates on the floor.

He had extremely malicious thoughts towards the big man Otoev, whom he had never met.

The sound of broken steps came, and Mr. S. Sterns, with a strange expression, slipped in like the wind.

He blinked his eyes and said dryly to Joe, "Joe, there is another group of people who claim to be ...... Door-to-door debt collectors. ”

Joe's eyes widened, and he silently turned his head to glance at Ferdinand, who was also dumbfounded.

"Very well, please let them in." Joe laughed "hehehehe": "Go and deliver a letter to His Highness Sarian, I may need the military support of a full staff." ”

"I want to, do it."
