Chapter 22: The Last Stand

Konstantin glanced at the numbers on the check, and he couldn't believe his eyes.

After rubbing his eyes and counting a few zeros, he hesitated, and finally put the check away and said:

"Mr. Fadu is so generous, I will definitely pass the gift to His Majesty August......

Meanwhile, a kilometre away from the villa, a luxury station wagon slowly pulled up to the side of the road.

The fourth heir to the Gringburg family, Matthew, sat by the car window sweating profusely.

After the assassination failed, he wanted to get out of here as fast as he could, throwing the mess at his men.

didn't expect that before he left, he was forcibly brought over by an old acquaintance

Ramathew came over to a man on the other side holding a telescope and looking in the direction of the villa.

The man had yellow shawl hair and a full beard, and looked to be in his forties.

Matthew said to the man, "Stephen, swear to God, Tom and I are just passing by.

I was on vacation in Thailand and didn't receive a ...... from Uncle Howard"

The man holding the binoculars looked at the villa and said to Matthew in front of him:

"Matthew, my brother, what are you panicking about? I'm not from your Gringborg family, and your family can't restrain me.

My brother, you were also a famous figure in the New World, when did you become like this?

You are the fourth in line to the throne of the Gringbourg family, and you should learn from the esteemed Mr. Howard.

He's not as good as you, and Mr. Howard was the fifth in line to the throne.

Back then, your family of Guringborg offended the Mad King John, and after the great fight, one-fifth of your family's supernatural beings died.

The patriarch at that time gave the order to surrender to the Mad King family, just the night before the agreement of surrender and compensation was to be signed.

Mr. Howard and his three men attacked the Mad King's castle, killing him before he could cast his abilities.

After that incident, your Gringborg family's ranking rose from thirty-six to seventh.

In the second year, the five major forces were re-elected, and it was also through the aftermath of this incident that you occupied the last seat of the five major forces.

It's a pity that Mr. Howard is getting less and less courageous, he was re-elected and withdrew from the five major forces twenty years ago, and your Gringborg family has become weaker and weaker over the years.

He should retire and give up his seat to you......"

At this point, the man finally put down his binoculars, turned around and patted Matthew's cheek with a smile, and continued:

"If I were you, today would be the best opportunity.

You solved the Chinese inside, you did what Mr. Howard did.

As long as the reaction to this matter is sensational enough, my brother, you are the patriarch of the next generation of the Gringbourg family.

When the time comes, I will convince us to form an alliance with your Gringborg family, and when the next five forces are re-elected, the Gringborg family will definitely have a seat. ”

Listening to the beard's words, Matthew shook his head bitterly and glanced at the subordinates beside him who lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.

He took a deep breath and said to the beard:

"Stephen, what you said, I did it an hour ago, failed......

With the burning of Avenson's life, even if I want to finish off that Chinese now, I don't have the power.

Back then, Patriarch Howard still had three powerful abilities, and there was only one stealth Tom by my side......"

"You don't, I have ......"

When Stephen the bearded said this, a business van drove up and stopped next to the station wagon.

The windows of the van were lowered, and six men sat inside.

After waving his hand at the six men, Stephen turned back to the stunned Matthew and continued:

"Demon Fire Doji, brother, you should have seen his bounty order, right?

One hundred thousand palma coins, now in third place on the bounty order, and he is an old friend of Mr. Howard.

Behind them are Tightrope Amy and Mickey the little ghost, both of whom are big names in the bounty order......"

Before the beard could finish speaking, Matthew couldn't help but interrupt him and said:

"Stephen, are you crazy? They are all sinners in the new world......

It's too late for us to hide from such people, how dare you look for them, we will be implicated......"

"Why not? As long as it happens, who knows? Stephen put his arm around Matthew's neck, leaned into his ear, and continued:

"Do you think you really killed the Mad King with just a few of them?

Brother, did you grow up listening to this mythical story? You were deceived by Patriarch Howard.

Aside from telling you a few people, it was Dougie who really did it, at the cost of Mr. Howard spending two hundred thousand Parma gold coins to whitewash Mr. Dodge.

However, ten years ago, he killed Kudo of Hodao Co., Ltd., and then he was rewarded again......"

Matthew had never heard of this, and his eyes widened in disbelief that what Stephen said could be true......

At this time, Stephen continued to say to Matthew:

"My brother, I don't need you to rush to the front.

Let Dougie do it first, and when the Chinese dies, you can go in and pose for two photos, which is what your uncle Mr. Howard did.

After the matter is done, it is okay to help Mr. Daoji clear his name.

At that time, you were the first in line to the throne of Gringbourg, and this can still be done......"

Listening to Stephen's words, Matthew was a little moved.

He had long heard of the notoriety of the Demon Fire Doji, and the New World Grand Court sent ten supernatural masters to arrest him.

After the result, all ten masters of the ability were killed, and three days later, ten heads were placed on the desk of Justice Masao Kobayashi.

Since then, no one has dared to reveal the bounty of the Demon Fire Doji.

Compared to this demonic fire, the stake Evenson, who died at the hands of the pony, is like a child.

After some hesitation, Matthew said to the bearded Stephen:

"What about you, Stephen? What benefits do you want? ”

"Brother, we are brothers, what benefit can I personally want?" Stephen laughed a little and continued:

"I want you to sit in the position of the patriarch of the Gringburg, and when the Glingborg family returns to the five major forces, you can form an alliance with our Pioneer Club.

Brother, can you give me an answer, do it or don't do it? ”

After Matthew hesitated, he gritted his teeth and said, "Do ......"

Stephen smiled slightly, turned his head and nodded at the Demon Fire Dougie in the other business car.

Then the two cars drove forward and backward for a kilometer, the villa that resembled the White House.
