Chapter 181: The Conditions for Advancement Have Been Met
People like Douglas, who had lived underground, understood the principle of eradicating the root of the problem.
Hence, Douglas ordered the four Gold-armored Skeleton Squad warriors to surround the black-robed man.
After a moment of panic, the black-robed man gradually calmed down. He took out something and said to the two, “You’d better let me go! As for the dual elemental G.o.d stone, I still have to bring it back! If you don’t want to cause trouble, you’d better act smart!”
Douglas went forward and took the item in the black-robed man. He was completely stunned!
This was a handkerchief made of high-grade fabric and it was definitely something that only a great n.o.ble would possess.
Douglas was also a knowledgeable person, so he naturally would not be surprised by this.
What really surprised him or rather scared him, was the family emblem embroidered on it! This was the family emblem that belonged to the royal family!
It was the family emblem of the Frederick family, the king of Wind City!
At the moment, the sweat on Douglas’ face began to drip down.
Seeing the other party like this, the black-robed man stood up again and resumed his arrogant look. He said, “Do you know fear? Pay attention to your sweat! Dripping on it will tarnish the dignity of the royal family!”
“Lo… Locke, let him go. We can’t afford to offend the royal family…” Douglas hurriedly wiped his sweat and even trembled a little as he spoke.
“Also, seeing this family emblem is like seeing the king! You must kneel!” The black-robed man’s aura became more and more vigorous.
The black-robed man knew that as long as it was on this continent, anyone who saw the royal family emblem would be in awe!
Now, he thought that he had taken the lead!
“You! Break both of Locke’s legs! Consider it as a compensation to my Battle Beast!” After saying that to Douglas, he looked at Locke again. “As for you, after the king sees you, I’ll kill you to avenge my Battle Beast!”
Douglas was about to kneel down but was held by a strong hand!
“I say, when can you change this kneeling habit of yours? He’s not your father! Why are you afraid of him?” Locke took the handkerchief and wiped the black wall ash that had accidentally left on his forehead in the bas.e.m.e.nt.
“How dare you! You little b*stard! How dare you use the handkerchief given to me by the royal family to wipe your despicable forehead?” The black-robed man clenched his fists and shouted angrily.
Douglas said, “Locke, behave yourself! This is against the law! Although the king of Wind City isn’t as n.o.ble as the royal family, it’s not allowed to be defiled! This is punishable!”
After Locke wiped his forehead, what he did next shocked the two of them even more! He used the royal family’s handkerchief to wipe his shoes!
If this matter was found out by the people of the court, it would be a big trouble!
Locke might even be sentenced to the punishment of having his feet chopped off!
Seeing Douglas’ horrified look, Locke said, “What’s the big deal? A handkerchief is meant to wipe dirty places, isn’t it?”
Even a fool would not believe that Locke’s behavior was not intentional! Locke did it on purpose!
What Locke despised the most were the rules of the n.o.bles and princes! Moreover, how did their family’s rules rise to the level of the law?
In Locke’s eyes, this was the most shameless thing!
After throwing the handkerchief over, Locke looked at the black-robed man with a murderous look in his eyes. “Take it out! I don’t want to say it a second time!”
Locke’s gaze could only be described as terrifying!
The black-robed man had never seen such a terrifying gaze! He saw Twin-headed White Jade Snake approaching him.
Even the royal family crest could not suppress it.
In addition, the black-robed man’s Battle Beast was dead. He could only hand over the dual elemental G.o.d stone hidden in his inner pocket.
Locke strode forward and looked down at him with a smirk on his face. “What did you just call me…”
Following that, there was a wave of screams!
…
Locke did not kill the black-robed man. He only left some “souvenirs” on his forehead.
Seeing the departing black-robed man holding his b.l.o.o.d.y forehead, Locke looked at the dual elemental G.o.d stone in his hand and was very satisfied.
At least there were no major accidents tonight.
Douglas was very nervous. It was not that he was afraid of trouble. It was indeed against the law not to kneel in front of the royal family emblem.
Once the royal family investigated this incident, it would be very troublesome for them!
That was a duke who owned a city! In the federation, his status was only second to the royal family!
Locke’s series of actions earlier had caused a huge disaster!
“Let’s go! I’ve already sent a message to Löw! He’ll immediately send someone to help us load the items!” Locke’s expression was relaxed as he turned around and walked toward the small house.
Douglas did not know what to say for a moment. He shook his head, smiled bitterly, and followed behind.
“Why don’t we go out and hide? After all, the royal family sent someone to steal things this time, so they probably won’t say anything. As long as they don’t pursue the matter, it’ll be fine…”
Locke acted as if he did not hear it and called d.i.c.kens again to get him ready to sell a large number of artworks.
On the flight back, Locke was still enjoying the ma.s.sage from the two hot girls.
Douglas was debating whether to tell the princ.i.p.al of the academy about this.
According to Locke’s instructions, the private plane was parked at a designated location in the suburbs.
Looking at the priceless works of art one by one, d.i.c.kens’ eyes seemed to be shining!
After counting them one by one, he said, “Boss! We really made a big profit this time! At least tens of billions! Where did you get these items?”
“Don’t worry about that! Get rid of it as soon as possible with a good price. Give half to Douglas and we’ll split the rest equally…”
Although Locke was greedy, he knew that without these two people, it would be difficult for him to make a trade with these good things.
In business, Locke could not just focus on earning all by himself. Only when everyone had taken care of everything would they be loyal to him.
“Did you hear that? If I give it to you, you can buy any diamond ring!” Locke patted Douglas on the shoulder.
After everything else was arranged, the two of them walked toward the direction of the academy.
“I’ll go back first! I don’t have the habit of living in a tent!” Locke’s house was not far from the academy, so he walked toward the left side of the street.
Douglas thought for a moment, but he still had to be responsible for his friend. He decided in his heart that it was better to tell this matter to the higher-ups of the academy.
Thinking of this, Douglas walked toward the academy…
Not being used to living in a tent was just an excuse. Currently, Locke needed a private s.p.a.ce.
This was because the moment when Twin-headed White Jade Snake advanced, Locke only wanted to have it for himself!
It was late at night when he returned home.
After Locke had arrived at the room that had just been repaired, he summoned Twin-headed White Jade Snake once again.
“System, Twin-headed White Jade Snake’s advancement begins now!”
The conditions such as function points and materials have been met.
The two elemental G.o.d stone in Locke’s hand suddenly disappeared.
Twin-headed White Jade Snake in front of him was also enveloped by a red and blue light!
