Chapter 175 - After the War
Chapter 175: After the War
“Locke! Locke! Locke! Locke! Locke! Locke! Locke! Locke…”
Everyone called out this name in unison.
Sitting at the side, Locke’s parents were in tears.
So proud! Our son was really too proud!
The instructors came forward one after another and affirmed them:
“Sir, Madam, you’ve really raised a good son!”
“Can you tell me some educational examples? This is worth learning from all parents…”
“Excuse me, does your family have the custom of getting engaged? This is a photo of my daughter…”
“Let’s look at my daughter first! I have two daughters, you can choose…”
The mother leaned on the bearded man’s shoulder. The two of them were already sobbing, so they did not have the mood to care about this.
At this moment, Locke had already been thrown into the air by his classmates!
The cheers continued.
Once again, Locke flew into the air and directly summoned Gale Wings.
After stopping in the air, Locke looked at his classmates and said, “Alright! The matter will be settled soon. Everyone can go about their own business. I’m really not used to this kind of atmosphere…” Then, he looked at his parents. “I’ll go do something first. You guys wait for me at school!”
After saying that, Locke flew out.
…
“Do you want more ketchup? Huh?”
“You drug addicts! You deserve a beating!”
At this time, Dickens was like the commander-in-chief of the three armies, leading more than 200 subordinates to subdue thousands of rioters!
“Bang! Bang!”
Dickens whipped the belt in his hand at the thugs kneeling in front of him. He was giving them a “thought education” in an empty space.
“Beat them up! Let’s see if they still dare to smash shops and steal women! They’re even more evil than us!”
Dickens sat on a chair that his men had brought over, waved his fan, and said to the people around him, “Cover their eyes immediately… I’ve just sent the location to the boss, they should be arriving soon…”
Dickens was indeed smart. He could not leave Locke now, so he had to think from the other party’s point of view.
If these thugs knew about Locke’s relationship with the underground forces, it would not be good.
Just as these guys were all blindfolded, Locke also appeared in the open space.
“Boss! Our eyes are all blindfolded. Let’s talk from a distance…”
Looking at the densely packed thugs kneeling on the ground, Locke and Dickens walked into the distance.
“Boss! You don’t know! These guys are all spineless. If we can’t beat them, we’ll all surrender! Hehe!” Dickens handed over a cigar and helped light it up.
After taking a puff of the cigar, Locke said, “I’ve already obtained the formula of the ketchup poison. I reckon we’ll be able to brew the medicine tomorrow. Inform the Beastmasters who were affected underground to come to the entrance of the academy tomorrow to collect the medicine. As for these 1,000 fellows, make good use of them. Let them publicize this matter in the city.”
Dickens knew that his daughter could be saved and he was very happy. “Don’t worry, Boss! I’ll definitely handle this matter well!”
“Is the underground restaurant open for business? I’m hungry!” Locke said as he rubbed his belly.
Locke did not dare to go back to school now.
That number would drive him crazy. The city was in a mess now. He might as well go to the underground to eat!
The culinary skills of those chefs were also very good.
“Of course it’s open for business! But only for you! Why would a real boss return to the base without food?” Dickens immediately got a few subordinates. After arranging the matters, he invited Locke to get on the car and personally became the driver.
…
From the next morning, there was a long line at the entrance of the academy.
The Beastmasters in the city were waiting for the medicine.
This time, Hobrick was no longer a money-grubber. He knew that it was not easy for these guys, so he provided them with free help.
Rosetti, who had already removed the poison from her body, was also distributing the medicine to everyone.
Sitting in the car in the distance, Dickens, who was quietly observing, kept wiping his tears with his handkerchief.
“Sob, sob, sob, sob… Did you see the mother of the child? Our children are so promising and have already been entrusted with important tasks by the academy! Sob, sob, sob…”
Dicken’s wife had passed away early and Rosetti had been raised by him painstakingly.
A few of his subordinates were also affected by the atmosphere and began to cry. They were not the only ones who were happy.
At the same time, Douglas, who was in the medical room of the academy, also woke up.
“You’re awake!” Diana, who had been guarding for the entire night, wiped her tears and immediately held his hand.
“This… This is? Hiss…” Locke’s Battle Beast skill was too strong, causing him to feel a wave of dizziness.
Chief Physician Carter took the medical record book and said, “You really have a good body. Your Battle Beast took most of the damage for you! Rest well, it’s not a big problem.”
Tristan, whose face was still plastered with tape, told Douglas the rest of what happened yesterday.
After listening to it, Douglas lowered his head and muttered, “I didn’t expect Trent to fall into a situation where no one inherits the business. Gold City must be in chaos.”
“You still have time to care about that? Speak! Why didn’t you look for me!” Seeing that this guy had recovered his health, Diana placed her hands on her hips and began to interrogate him!
Douglas looked at her gently and said, “My dear, now that you know my identity, I… How can I be worthy of you? Although it’s against my conscience, I’ve done it! That’s unforgivable! How can I face you…”
The Trent family had always been in the business of human trafficking.
As one of the oldest cadres in the family, Douglas’ hands were stained with countless blood. He thought that he was not worthy of being forgiven no matter what.
Douglas had originally decided to block a fatal blow for Armstrong and then die at Locke’s hands.
In this way, both the Trent family and the people could be considered to have an explanation.
With Douglas’ rich experience in combat, now that he recalled yesterday, he began to suspect that Locke deliberately went easy on him and did not kill him.
“What happened in the past is in the past. Blocking that attack can also be considered as returning the Trent family’s favor. Armstrong originally wanted to kill you! Even if you don’t think for yourself, you should think for instructor Diana…”
After saying that, Locke, who had nothing better to do, walked into the infirmary.
Looking at this genius youth, Douglas still had lingering fear in his heart. He had never seen a Beastmaster with such astonishing strength.
Tristan also decided to be more straightforward. He took out a few documents and handed them to Douglas.
“This… This is a warning letter from the Federal Court?”
