Chapter Ninety-Three: Threats
"Hey, Lambert, sober up, now is not the time for you to get out of your mind." Nicole reminded Lambert.
But Lambert remained silent and did not respond.
"If only we had brought Potter with us today, who knew that Uncle Jace would have to take Potter to the other classes today, if Potter was here, these guys would definitely not be able to catch us." Leah said with a sigh.
A dozen footsteps sounded not far from outside the cell, and Lambert knew that it was the growth of the goblins.
The leading goblin was dressed in a dress that looked extremely graceful and luxurious, and his delicate gown was inlaid with several gems, large and small, and although these gems did not enhance the strength of the demon hunter like the demon hunter's armor, anyone wearing such a glittering garment would look very noble.
Although the leading guy is no different from other goblins in terms of appearance, this guy's temperament is completely incomparable to other goblins.
"Bring me the guy who injured the vice president, and I'm going to talk to him alone." The leading goblin pointed to Lambert in the cell and said to the goblins guarding the cell beside him.
Lambert was escorted by a group of goblins to a very luxuriously decorated house, where the furniture was almost always made of the best materials, and the decorations here were all priceless gems and some of the most famous paintings and statues in the continent of Alc.
The whole house gives Lambert a feeling of only two words: extravagance.
The leading goblin first motioned to the rest of the goblins to untie Lambert, and then sat down in front of Lambert with a smile on his face, saying that strangely enough, Lambert did not see the slightest hint of anger on this guy's face, but the smile on his face carried a lot of friendly meaning in it.
"Hello, Mr. Lambert, I'm Paul, the president of the Eternal Goblin Chamber of Commerce, and it's a pleasure to sit here with you." The goblin smiled at Lambert.
"You know me?" Lambert's eyes widened and he asked with an incredulous expression.
"Of course, the coverage of our goblin chamber of commerce's information network is far beyond your imagination, and everyone in this St. Mayad city, including the rats below, can check everything as long as we want." Paul continued to smile.
"I accidentally killed your vice president, but this is really an accident, I don't ask you to let me go, but the two companions who came with me, please let them go, this matter has nothing to do with them at all." Lambert said anxiously.
"Of course, of course, Mr. Lambert, as long as you are willing to cooperate with us, let alone let them both go, even if you are released, I will not blink an eye, and besides, I will give you unimaginable wealth."
"How do you want to work together?" Lambert realized that things weren't as simple as he saw them, and his expression grew serious.
At this time, Lambert began to recall the suspicions that Nicole had analyzed in the cell just now, and after Paul's words, Lambert finally realized that something was wrong, he was obviously arrested because he killed the vice president of the Eternal Goblin Chamber of Commerce, but now they said that as long as they cooperated, they would be able to live away from the past, and they could also give themselves a lot of wealth.
"It's a pleasure to work with someone like Mr. Lambert, then I'm going to get straight to the point, I need you as a member of our Eternal Goblin Chamber of Commerce, the time limit is for life, as long as you are alive, you must work for the Eternal Goblin Chamber of Commerce, of course, as long as you join us, you will definitely get more than you give. Second, I need you to do one thing, which is to kill Erin, the president of the Wizards' Guild, but not now, but when you have the ability. As long as you do both of these, I can release the three of you right away. The smile on Paul's face seemed extremely eerie and sinister to Lambert at this time.
"Don't talk about two conditions, I won't agree to any of these two, since you've investigated me, then you should know that I won't agree to your conditions, right?" Lambert snorted coldly and asked rhetorically.
"Of course, all of this is just a formality, but I am sure that as time goes on, you will agree to our terms. Come. Paul clapped his hands with a smile on his face, and then the two men standing behind Lambert tied Lambert up again, and after tying him, pulled out the demonic sword behind Lambert.
"What are you doing?" Seeing that his demonic sword had been taken away, Lambert suddenly lost his mind and yelled at the goblins.
"Don't worry, don't be angry, because there are other things that make you angry, such as the people you care about the most." Paul still has a smile on his face, and even the expression on his face has not changed at all from the beginning to the present.
Lambert naturally knew what they were talking about, his emotions were finally irrational, and he tried to use his demon hunter energy to break the rope that bound him, but when he released the demon hunter energy from his body, the rope tied to his body was also constantly absorbing Lambert's energy.
After several attempts in a row, Lambert finally became invigorated, and he lay on the ground gasping for breath as he saw the three goblins with ugly faces in front of him.
"Why? You don't seem to care about your vice president at all. Lambert had exhausted his strength by this time, so he spoke much quieter.
"Now that you're all in this situation, it doesn't hurt if I just tell you directly. That vice president is a thing that eats inside and out, I specially set up this scheme, tricked him into the bushes near the monster you hunted, and then let people put an illusion in front of you, the so-called last wolf demon you attacked, is just a phantom created by us, the reason why we want that guy to die, is to make you feel guilty, and then we willingly caught him. Paul came to Lambert's ear, and one of his feet was on Lambert's body, and the expression on his face was full of disdain.
"Damn... You're actually... He even designed to frame his companions.... You guys... You will be punished. Lambert gritted his teeth and said indignantly.
"Retribution? Since I Paul established this Eternal Goblin Chamber of Commerce, I have done a lot of bad things, but everything can be settled with money, a guy like you who doesn't eat oil and salt may not be able to buy it with money, but we have a lot of weaknesses and sore spots on our hands, if you don't do what we ask, hum, what will happen to your two little girlfriends, I don't dare to think about it~ Of course, if you want to pretend to cooperate with us and then take the opportunity to kill us, it is impossible, once you agree to cooperate with us, You have to sign a sacred contract with us, and after signing the contract, if you do something against me, your spirit will immediately fall under my control. So, boy, enjoy your last free time, tomorrow I want your answer, and the fate of your two little girlfriends is all in your hands~Hahahahaha~" Paul smirked and let the goblins escort Lambert out again.
Since Paul has completely stopped pretending, the guilt in Lambert's heart has disappeared a lot at this moment, but the only thing that makes him scruple is the poor goblin who was killed because of his mistake, that guy did something wrong, just because he was ostracized by his peers, so he was regarded as a substitute for the death to lure Lambert and others to take the bait.
For Lambert, the top priority now is to ensure the safety of Nicole and Leah, judging from Paul's conversation with himself, the other party does not seem to mean to hurt himself, but still relies on himself and the demonic sword in his hand, so Lambert must now find a way to help Nicole and Leah get out of trouble, so that he can let go and find a way to escape.
At the same time, in a dark corner, the already stiff body suddenly moved again.
After Lambert was taken to his cell, the guards asked him one last time if he would like to cooperate, and Lambert of course refused without hesitation.
After leaving a good word for himself, the guard left the cell without looking back, leaving Lambert alone. In order to prevent Lambert and the others from discussing escape, Paul deliberately locked Lambert alone somewhere in order to force Lambert to surrender to him.
Tormented by hunger and a dry mouth, Lambert fell asleep against the wall.
"Hello? Wake up! Feed! Is your name Lambert? ”
A male voice suddenly rang in Lambert's ears, and Lambert opened his eyes in a daze, only to find that standing outside the door of his cell was the goblin he had killed by mistake.
"Damn... I'm not going to starve to death, am I... I saw the dead... Oh my God, I'm so sorry that I wasn't killed by the devil, but I was starved to death...", Lambert said to himself with his hands in a very sad expression.
When Lambert was brought here, the bindings of his hands had been untied by Paul, but he still had devices on his hands that limited the release of the Demon Hunter's energy.
"Shhhhhh Hey, brother, you're not dead, you're alive, sober up, I'm here to get you out. The guy standing in front of Lambert whispered to Lambert.
"You, you, you, you... Isn't it dead, why are you suddenly talking here again?" Lambert stammered a little, and it was obvious that he had begun to doubt his life about what was happening in front of him.
