Chapter 221: Beautiful Woman
After waking up from the hangover, Locke went to the living room and drank some milk.
The real estate agent in his hometown called.
“h.e.l.lo, Mr. Viscount! I’m from the Atlanta City’s Widdock Real Estate Development Company. There are some procedures that I need to confirm with you…”
“Yes! I want to build a small manor on that piece of land. I’ll send the deposit to you immediately!” After drinking quite a lot yesterday, Locke even forgot about this matter.
Just the deposit alone was a large sum of money. Although it was a little expensive, it was good as long as his parents liked it.
However, the service staff said, “Mr. Viscount, don’t misunderstand! The governor of the city hall has already given us the deposit! You only need to sign the electronic doc.u.ment on your phone…”
“???” Locke did not quite understand what had happened.
It turned out that after contacting them to buy the land yesterday, the local city hall noticed the ident.i.ty of Viscount Locke in the remarks.
Moreover, it was granted by His Majesty the King.
This was a great event for the remote Atlanta City, where there were almost no n.o.bles!
The local governor was only a Baron. When he found out about this matter, he immediately realized that Locke definitely knew His Majesty the King!
To curry favor with Locke, he bought this land for Locke out of his own pocket.
Locke did not expect that such an ident.i.ty could bring so much convenience.
It seemed that his parents’ safety could also be guaranteed!
After signing the doc.u.ment, the other party politely hung up the phone.
After everything was prepared, Locke took a few boxes and went downstairs.
d.i.c.kens’ motorcade to the airport had been waiting at the entrance for a long time.
After bidding farewell to their parents, they officially headed to the Heavenly City.
The plane was provided by Adelaide.
Once d.i.c.kens sat down, he turned on his laptop.
“Boss, look! This is a manor I bought yesterday as well as a few apartments in the city center! It’s convenient for us to do things moving forward. The company we’re covering for is also the Beastmaster training ground…”
These few places were all well chosen. The transportation was convenient and it was bustling.
“You can stay in the manor. The conditions there are very good!” d.i.c.kens opened the manor’s preview map.
Locke rubbed the s.p.a.ce between his brows and said, “I’ll stay in the apartment. To understand a city, I have to live on the streets.”
“Oh, that makes sense! Then I’ll stay in the apartment next to yours. Oh right, I’ve also arranged for a lot of maids for you. They’ll take care of everything at home…” d.i.c.kens raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly.
Locke was very satisfied with the other party’s arrangements.
As Locke drank too much yesterday, he put on a black eye mask and fell asleep again…
…
A few hours later, they had arrived at the Heavenly City.
Locke had woken up long ago.
This was because when d.i.c.kens and his men were about to land, they were excited to see the bustling Heavenly City outside the window.
“Boss! Let’s go straight to the apartment!” d.i.c.kens and his men began to pack their luggage.
Locke yawned and shook his head. “You guys go first. I’ve memorized the place. Someone will be looking for me soon…”
Sure enough, it had only been ten minutes and d.i.c.kens and his men had yet to pack their luggage.
Peter had appeared here.
This was what Locke had told him through a text message before he boarded the plane.
“Hahaha! Child! Welcome to Heavenly City! His Majesty the King was also very happy when he found out that you were willing to come!” Peter laughed loudly as he walked forward and shook hands with Locke.
d.i.c.kens and the others had only seen big shots like Peter on television.
This sudden appearance had made them somewhat at a loss.
However, d.i.c.kens quickly calmed down. He quietly left the airport with his subordinates.
d.i.c.kens was afraid that he and his subordinates’ ident.i.ties would negatively affect Locke.
“Let’s go! We’ll talk when we get in the car!”
In the limousine, Peter spoke again, “Welcome to the camp of the royal agents! Your main mission is to obey His Majesty’s command! Eliminate the enemies who threaten the safety of the continent and attempt to subvert the royal family…”
“These are some guidelines and rules. Take a look at them when you have the time…”
This was similar to what was shown on television.
However, Locke believed that they would only hand over the most difficult mission to him. After all, his strength lay in this.
“As for the treatment, ten million federal coins a year and three Battle Beast eggs! How about it? Isn’t it great?” Peter laughed.
Ten million and three Battle Beast eggs were naturally very high treatment for ordinary Beastmasters.
To Locke, it was just a drop in the bucket. It did not interest him at all.
“I don’t want money! I only want some items as the reward. Is that alright?”
With the profits from the Holy City’s underground black market, Locke was no longer an ordinary rich man.
Right now, he only wanted those difficult-to-get leveling materials.
Peter was silent for a moment, then smiled, and said, “Hahaha… Your Majesty’s guess is indeed correct. You’re different from an ordinary Beastmaster.
“Alright, that won’t be a problem. As long as it’s not too excessive!”
After the conditions were met, the car drove directly to another secret stronghold.
It was also an ordinary building that did not look eye-catching.
After entering the house, Peter came to a surveillance machine with facial recognition.
After confirming the ident.i.ty, the wall began to rotate, revealing the interior that looked like a conference room.
“Good afternoon, Mr. Secretary-general…”
A one-eyed middle-aged man immediately came forward to greet him.
“How are you, Miles? I brought you a new member…” Peter smiled politely and walked toward the main seat of the meeting room.
The middle-aged man named Miles sized Locke up with an unfriendly gaze.
There were four young men standing behind him.
“These are the Beastmasters who have three rose gold rank Battle Beasts?”
“Why do I feel like this person is a playboy…”
“He should be a few years younger than us…”
“h.e.l.lo, handsome…”
The four of them, three men and one woman, all looked at Locke with curious gazes.
After the seven of them sat down, Peter officially began to introduce Locke.
Miles’ face was like an unchanging cement floor. From beginning to end, there was no expression on his face.
“Locke, you’re now a member of the First Division. This is your captain, Miles! Everyone else, please introduce yourselves…” Peter said to the other four people.
The first to speak was a tall guy. “I’m Gustav! I’ve been working for five years!”
Locke nodded. This guy looked like he was about 27 or 28 years old.
He was probably a member of the Royal Secret Service at his age.
The man had thick limbs and a fist full of scars. Locke felt like he was a boxer.
Just as the second person was about to speak, he was interrupted by a beautiful woman.
“h.e.l.lo, Locke, I’m Belinda…” As she spoke, she brushed her blonde hair and gave Locke a wink.
Locke was very sure in his heart that this was the s.e.xiest and most beautiful woman he had ever met.
