Chapter 1042 Do You Think Iâm Afraid of the Blood Tribe?
Getald had guessed something when Joaquin started making requests.
He was Dragon Bone, the apprentice of Alcoholic. Now most people in the Havotune Galaxy knew that.
Logically, even if people from the royal family came over, they would at most take advantage of the situation, but the conditions proposed by them were extremely harsh.
But he didnât expect that behind the Solein Kingdom was the Blood Tribe!
When the Blood Tribe and Soulreaper Sect were in Underground Palace, they had a complete conflict with Gerald. It was normal for them to want special treatment.
The royal family thought that one of the Eight Forces was standing behind them, so it was reasonable for them to make things difficult for Gerald.
But so what? The people of the Blood Tribe didnât dare to attack him openly for three years, and Gerald was not afraid at all.
Hearing Geraldâs resolute rejection, Joaquin and the others couldnât help but be slightly stunned.
Joaquin narrowed his eyes.
Gerald, however, said with a smile, âThe first one, City Defenders? You can arrange it if you want, but their role in the city of Phoenix is no different from before!â
âSecond, the concept and system of equality for all people must be implemented by the City of Phoenix, which we have promised to the people of Abandoned Land before the war started. We only govern within the City of Phoenix, and what happens in other parts of Solein Kingdom has nothing to do with us.â
âThird, 60% of the tax?â
Gerald flashed a half-smile and said, âFrom what I know, you just took 5 to 10 percent of the tax when Four Ancient Families ruled this city. But now, youâre asking for 60 percent from me. Do you think Iâm a pushover?â
âThe Four Ancient Families are backed by the Archaic Tribe!â Joaquin couldnât help but say.
âSo you think my mentor is easy to bully?â Gerald asked with a smile.
Joaquin couldnât help but be stunned. He didnât dare to admit that alcoholic was easy to bully.
Gerald glanced at him with a smile and said, âAs for the fourth point, I killed Leon Ingersoll. He helped the Four Ancient Families to attack me at that time. So what if I killed him? Do you want an explanation? Iâd like to see what you want to say.â
Joaquinâs expression darkened when Gerald snapped back at him.
He looked at Gerald gloomily and asked, âGerald, are you going to go against the Blood Tribe?â
Chapter 1042 Do You Think Iâm Afraid of the Blood Tribe?
Gerald smiled at Joaquin and asked nonchalantly, âYou can represent the Blood Tribe?â
Upon heating Geraldâs words, Joaquinâs expression stiffened.
Gerald sneered, âI dare to start a fight directly with the Eight Forces in Underground Palace. If you can represent the Blood Tribe, go back and tell the bastards in the Blood Tribe that I donât have the guts to do these tricks after three years. Besides, if I grow up, the first thing Iâll do is the Blood Tribe and the Soulreaper Sect!â
Once again, Joaquin was intimidated by Gerald.
When he first saw Gerald, he thought that he was just an ordinary person. So what if he was the Dragon Bone?
If it werenât for Alcoholic, Gerald would have been nothing.
On the other hand, with his back against the Blood Tribe, he didnât think he was any worse than Gerald.
However, what Gerald said was true. Most of the people in the Underground Palace knew nothing about him provoking the Eight Forces.
It was just that when he saw Gerald earlier, he felt that the latter was too ordinary and did not seem like a very arrogant person.
However, at this moment, when Gerald became arrogant, he found that his aura seemed to be suppressed.
Then, he said sternly, âGerald, donât be too arrogant. Donât you just have a good mentor? Iâm telling you, the law you want to enforce that everyone is equal will not be tolerated by the entire Havotune, or even the Eight Forces. Our Solein Kingdom will not tolerate it either. If you insist on carrying it out, then Iâm afraid we have to force you to withdraw from the City of Phoenix!â
âForced withdrawal?â At this time, a cold voice came from outside, âDoes it mean that Solein Kingdom plans to start a war against the City of Phoenix?â
Immediately afterward, a silver-haired Anabel and Sylvie walked in outside the door!
The blue sign of the Archaic Tribe on their chests was a little dazzling!
Seeing Sylvie and Anabel, even Joaquin hurriedly saluted, âSuperior Envoy!â
Anabel said faintly, âIf you want to ask for help from the Blood Tribe and start a war against the City of Phoenix, then as long as the Blood Tribe supports you, I will do the same to the City of Phoenix. I can also promise you that the royal family in Solein Kingdom will be replaced!â
In the face of Gerald, Joaquinâs sense of superiority was instantly replaced by terror.
The worldâs strict rules were deeply rooted in peopleâs hearts, and he didnât dare to retort at all in front of Sylvie.
âSuperior Envoy!â At this time, Reno said, âIt would be fine if Gerald and Kenneth ruled the City of Phoenix as usual, but they let people from Abandoned Land come out and be equal with the upper-class people. The Eight Forces will not tolerate it. He is an enemy of the whole world.â
âWhatâs wrong? Can you represent the Eight Forces again now?â Sylvie asked with a smirk.
âOf course not!â Reno quickly nodded.
Gerald exhaled slowly and said, âIâve said what I should and shouldnât have said. If youâre here to congratulate me, Iâm more than happy. If youâre here to cause trouble, Iâll follow you to the end! As for what you said, you canât accept the system weâre going to implement, then... I can also announce that the City of Phoenix will be independent!â
âYou want to establish your own country?â Joaquinâs expression changed.
Gerald shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, âIf you canât accept our system, so what if you go out on your own?â
âSo! Youâre going to completely turn against us, arenât you?â Joaquin gritted his teeth and said, âOkay, Iâll relay what you just said to the Blood Tribe! I hope you can still be so arrogant by then!â
âBye!â Gerald said with a smile.
Joaquin gritted his teeth in anger when he saw Geraldâs disrespectful attitude toward the Blood Tribe. âFine, Gerald. Iâll remember this. I hope you can still be this arrogant when the Blood Tribe and my army are at the border.â
As soon as he finished speaking, the face of the Cabinet Minister Reno next to him suddenly changed.
Gerald raised his eyebrows and looked at Joaquin. âSo.... Youâve declared war on me on behalf of the royal family and the Blood Tribe, right?â
âIn that case!â
With that, he walked up to Joaquin and grabbed him by the neck. âA loser who spends countless resources but canât even reach Flame Decayer barks like a dog in front of me for a long time. Do you think I wonât kill you?â
âGerald, thatâs not what Our Highness meant. He doesnât represent the royal family, and he certainly doesnât represent the Blood Tribe,â said Reno when he saw Gerald making a move.
âGet out!â
Gerald scoffed and threw Joaquin out of the room. At the same time, he sneered, âIf you shout at me again, I wonât spare you!â
He couldnât stand this man, but he didnât kill him after all!
Killing someone meant a complete break with the royal family, and even a direct war.
Gerald was not afraid of anyone expect eternal Flame Decayers.
But at this time, the City of Phoenix had just been in a war and needed to recuperate, and Night Watch needed to develop!
It was best for him to guard the land. It would be inappropriate to fight again.
However, Gerald had to show his attitude and tell the royal family and the Blood Tribe that he did not like the idea.
Anabel stuck out her tongue at Geraldâs appearance.
She recalled the first time she and Gerald met. Gerald wanted to end her life too.
Beside him, Sylvie frowned and said, âBut Gerald, in fact, what they said is not unreasonable. The system you are going to implement is indeed not tolerated by the whole galaxy!â
