“Our underground city is under the control of the Leighton Reynolds father and son pair. The people do not have a good life. Today, the brave warrior has come to our aid in the face of injustice. He has really saved thousands of people at dawn!”
The captain of the guards, Nair, said loudly.
Under the overly exaggerated praise, it made the goosebumps all over Joelson’s body rise. He did not have a good impression of this person who came up to compliment him.
“These words of yours are somewhat lacking in evidence.”
After thinking for a long time, Joelson said calmly.
“May I ask this great warrior, what is your name?”
When the captain of the guards saw that Joelson was so indifferent to him, he immediately felt a trace of panic.
“You don’t need to know this. I’m just a passing wanderer.”
Joelson turned around and said faintly.
“Wait, wait a minute!”
Seeing Joelson turn around, the captain of the guards suddenly felt a strong fear in his heart.
Oh no, if the other party was not interested in him, wouldn’t his dream of being promoted to an official career be shattered?
With such fear, the captain of the guards, Nair, quickly came forward to urge Joelson to stay.
“What’s wrong?”
Joelson turned around and saw that the other party was displeased with his request to stay.
Joelson could feel the strong thundering beat of a utilitarian heart from the other party.
“Hello, this great hero. We have captured all the trusted aides of the old king, including the old king, Leighton himself. We are willing to hand over this muddle-headed and insolent king to you to deal with!”
Captain Nair said hurriedly.
Hehehe, such a big gift package would definitely tempt him!
No one would be able to reject such a big gift package.
With such a big gift package, no matter who it was, they would be able to rely on the resources in their hands to directly become the king of the underground city.
“Ah?”
Joelson looked at Captain Nair in front of him with a puzzled expression.
What was this person thinking?
Was there any benefit to giving him Leighton first?
Joelson did not understand.
He could not think of any benefit from this operation.
However, under such a puzzled gaze, Captain Nair felt even more incredulous.
What was he trying to do?
This foreigner actually couldn’t figure it out at all.
Such an existence’s thinking was indeed different from ordinary people’s.
He couldn’t figure it out at all!
“Then, honorable hero, may I ask how you plan to deal with old king, Leighton?”
Under such doubts, Captain Nair’s question became much more conservative.
“Hmm?”
Joelson frowned.
“What do Leighton’s life and death have to do with me?”
His words were earth-shattering and everyone who heard it was petrified.
Was this a powerhouse?
Such a powerhouse’s thinking was indeed something that normal people could not understand!
Such a powerful existence and the logic of a normal person’s thinking were no longer on the same level.
No one could understand what was going on in this masked man’s mind!
“Don’t… Don’t you want to be king?”
Captain Nair asked nervously.
He knew that this question was too offensive but, under the strong urge of curiosity, he still asked this question.
“Ah?”
Joelson was puzzled again.
“Didn’t Reynolds and I say it clearly before? It was just a competition. If he hadn’t lost his mind and killed him in the end, I wouldn’t have even killed him.”
Joelson said calmly.
These kinds of words directly subverted the thoughts of Captain Nair.
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
This person really wasn’t trying to challenge the authority of the Old King Reynolds, wasn’t he trying to rule the underground city?
In this world, there were actually experts who didn’t interfere because of the temptation of power?
Captain Nair had always believed that in this world, no matter how powerful one was, no one would be able to resist the temptation of power.
But today, Nair had actually met such a person!
Joelson really didn’t have the slightest idea about the throne!
Joelson really didn’t fight with the old king, Reynolds, for the throne!
Such a pure expert…
No wonder the other party’s strength was a thousand times stronger than his.
No wonder Joelson’s strength surpassed the scope of everyone in the underground city, directly subverting everyone’s cognitive standards.
“Long live—!”
Waves of cheers came from below.
These ordinary citizens had seen a battle that they would never hear of in their entire lives.
Such a terrifying and wonderful battle that kept on turning was probably an epic battle that many of them would never be able to see in their entire lives.
Not only did Joelson let them witness such a wonderful battle that kept on turning, he actually helped them to survive.
At this moment, Joelson was the savior in the eyes of the ordinary people!
Such a terrifying existence, such a miraculous existence!
Such feelings belonged only to the audience who had witnessed everything.
After witnessing such a level of battle, they already had a strong sense of submission towards Joelson!
“Great! Praise the Polar Goddess!”
The drunkard knelt on the ground, sincerely kowtowing towards Joelson on the stage.
Previously, when he had discussed Reynolds’s rich history with the owner of the tavern, he had felt the magnificent waves that only existed in the history books, and his heart was filled with excitement.
Today, after seeing the miracle of Joelson, all of them had completely submitted.
Confidants convinced!
The captain of the guards looked at the new king in surprise and at the cheering people below!
They had not even killed the old king, yet the people had already submitted to the new king.
It was simply terrifying!
However, did such a person really exist in this world?
The captain of the guards pinched his thigh hard to make sure that he was not dreaming.
This scene wasn’t a dream at all. All the subjects of the underground city, all the people of industry and commerce, had voluntarily offered their allegiance to him.
It seemed that he really couldn’t give away his gift bag.
This was because his reputation had reached the point where he didn’t need any extra tricks to become the most suitable heir to the throne in everyone’s eyes.
Such a powerful person.
This gift bag of his was simply ridiculous.
Just as the people below were happily welcoming their new king, Joelson turned his head around with an unhappy expression.
