Chapter 227

"Is this also Boss Lin's arrangement?!"

The idea that flashed in Claude's mind was not groundless.

Since they made a move in front of the bookstore, they naturally had to consider the thoughts and wishes of the bookstore owner, Mr. Lin—in fact, this is the most important thing.

Judging from the current evaluation results, Boss Lin doesn't mind the cooperation or competition between customers.

For example, the cooperation between their Secret Ritual Tower and Vincent some time ago.

There is also the competitive relationship between Miss Ji of Luoer Resource Development and Qi Li, vice president of the Ash Chamber of Commerce.

But what if the relationship between customers is a life-and-death adversarial relationship?

Even though this may be nothing more than a trivial matter to Boss Lin.

However, if the customers fight against each other and one of them dies, it may be a loss of fun for Boss Lin!

There is indeed a great deal of uncertainty here.

Because from the very beginning, this mysterious and powerful bookstore owner has been both good and evil. He is only friendly to all customers, but he has no standpoint of good and evil.

It is these days after they have completed the crusade against such an evil organization as the Dome Church under Boss Lin's instructions, they subconsciously hooked Boss Lin's friendliness and justice on the hook!

When Claude thought of this, his heart sank.

If this is Boss Lin's arrangement, then unless Wilde loses value and fun for Boss Lin.

Otherwise they would never have the chance to bring Wilde to justice.

"It's not without precedent..."

Claude stared closely at Wilde, who came out of the bookstore and ran into Francis and the others head-on, and his four new subordinates.

——Maybe also the four new customers of the bookstore.

"The teacher asked about Wilde's whereabouts several times before, and hoped that the owner of the bookstore could help, but he didn't get a response..."

"In contrast, according to intelligence, Ackerman was directly introduced to Ji Zhixu to work there, which contributed to the growth of 'Spider' today."

"I'm afraid this has already shown the attitude of the bookstore owner."

"He doesn't want his guests to kill each other!"

Claude felt that he had completely figured out Boss Lin's intentions, and at the same time felt that his heart had sunk to the bottom.

Otherwise, there would be no reason for such a coincidence today...

Their original plan was to lay in ambush and launch a wave of attacks when Wilde and others were unprepared, in order to achieve the best surprise attack effect.

Wilde's strength should not be underestimated, but the Tower of Secret Rites is not a vegetarian.

Even the god level is their goal, let alone the destruction level.

With their lineup today, it may be difficult to win Wilde, but it is possible to seriously injure him under unexpected circumstances.

And they still have the final main force—Joseph is coming soon.

But now the rash actions of Francis and others have alarmed Wilde, making this already formidable enemy enter a state of alert fighting, plus those panic-levels and a wolf of empty court.

With precautions in place, the operation of the Secret Ritual Tower has basically failed...

"Should we continue to act?"

The person on standby next to him asked Claude, while raising the heavy hammer in his hand, ready to rush out at any time.

Claude restrained his emotions, and said in a deep voice: "Of course, everyone listens to my command. This time, the primary mission goal is to rescue the eight official knights."

It doesn't matter whether those people acted in violation of the regulations, or they came to carry out the task under the order of someone.

But at this moment, on the battlefield, they are still members of the Secret Ritual Tower and their companions.

In the case of failure of the original mission, protecting the companion is the first choice.

Afterwards...the internal reckoning will take place later.

"yes!"

Following the unison response, everyone in the Secret Ritual Tower obeyed the command and dispersed.

A part continued the sneak attack strategy in a concealed state.

The other part directly took off the disguise and was exposed to the sight of Wilde and others, which immediately attracted the attention of Gal and the trio.

"There's an ambush?!"

Gal, as a wild wizard who has been fighting for many years, reacted immediately, made a rough judgment of his strength, and was shocked. Is this battle going to the destruction level? Isn't this trial too difficult? !

He was used to being hunted down, subconsciously flustered, thinking that he didn't need to deal with himself, and only realized in the next moment that this was an ambush for Wilde!

Then Gal's eyes widened, and the general position in the field now changed to "The Secret Ritual Tower Troop-Gal and the trio-Wilde-Francis and others-Grady".

He directly threw several suture monster puppets to defend around him, and rushed towards Francis and the others excitedly.

The three of Ye Falcon were stunned.

Why did the guy who was just huddled in the back very wretchedly and stole two knives from time to time, suddenly become so fierce?

"Sure enough, there is an ambush!"

Wilde sneered without any unexpected emotion.

Since there are players who face directly, there will naturally be players who set up an ambush secretly, which is not difficult to guess.

Shout out?

It's still a good strategy, but it's a pity that he is not those academic wizards, but a cruel executioner who has experienced many battles.

And all of this must be in Boss Lin's calculations, since he has completed the task, he also ended the regret of losing his disciples one after another.

Then presumably, Boss Lin must have noticed the only remaining obsession in his heart at this moment!

"Joseph...it's been a long time!"

Wilde's eyes behind the mask turned to the distance, and met the eyes of Joseph who had been late.

After two years, the two who once had a deep friendship with each other finally met again.

Joseph stood on the roof and patted Claude on the shoulder next to him.

Familiar and unfamiliar eyes intertwined, and the two of them instantly understood each other's intentions and thoughts without even needing to communicate.

His strength is stronger than two years ago! *2

But so do I! *2

Eye contact is fleeting.

Joseph understood that Wilde might not be able to stay today. The opponent's strength was stronger than expected, and the surprise attack strategy did not work.

Wilde understood that today's interrupted trial might not be able to be successfully completed. The other party's eyes had regained their former sharpness, and it didn't matter if they fought. He was afraid that the noise would disturb Boss Lin.

But it doesn't matter, the members of the Secret Ritual Tower are almost dead, Gal and the others have performed well, and he has already seen the shortcomings of the few, and the purpose of the trial has been achieved.

He whistled, and Grady moved in response, and in the blink of an eye, all of them were swept away and disappeared on the spot.

The fighting came to an abrupt end.

Joseph took over from Claude to command the crowd to clean up the battlefield, and rescued Francis, who was still in shock and was seriously injured and dying.

Claude told his teacher his guess.

Joseph shook his head and said, "If that's the case, Boss Lin won't let us have a chance to meet again."

Claude was taken aback, hesitantly said: "So?"

Joseph looked at the bookstore with far-sighted eyes: "Boss Lin obviously wants to choose one between me and Wilde in the form of competition, and train him to become a god!"
