Chapter 1353

Hester's case caused a huge uproar in the entire Chaotic Universe.

If an ordinary person had done something similar, it would have also aroused public outrage, but the repercussions would not have been as great.

After all, Hester was a direct member of the Robb family, and the Robb family was one of the top twelve famous families. What made everyone even more angry was that the Robb family knew about this before everyone else. Not only did they not deal with Hester, but they also used despicable means to cover up the matter.

However, the truth could not be contained. The decision of the higher-ups of the clan had caused the entire clan to fall into unprecedented embarrassment.

No one would have thought that the mastermind behind this matter was just a member of a small pirate crew.

It was dinner time for the Gu Ding Pirate Crew. Everyone gathered around the dining table.

Other than Gu Ding, the other members of the pirate crew had now reached the level of a Nine-star Lord. Now that they had entered this realm, there was no need to rush to upgrade their ranks. Everyone spent most of their time stabilizing their cultivation and evolving god sequence chains. Basically, their strength had reached a small bottleneck, and closed-door training did not have much effect. Therefore, compared to the previous year and a half, they were much more relaxed.

Gu Ding was an 8-star Lord who had just condensed his eighth god sequence chain. He was also stabilizing his cultivation and was not in a hurry to advance to the level of a Nine-star.

Biggie cooked again and made a few new dishes that he had just developed. Everyone was full of praise for them.

After dinner, everyone did not leave. Instead, they talked about the storm caused by Hester.

"Neptune did a great job! This kind of scumbag should let everyone in the Chaotic Universe see his true colors! "Liliath gave Neptune a thumbs up.

"The higher-ups of the Robb family are really brainless. Not only did they not deal with that scum, but they also sent people to assassinate so many hackers. It's obvious that they want to cover up the matter." Dockett was also extremely angry.

"They must have made such a decision because of Bandit. With Hester's talent and potential, he would not be valued by the Robb family at all. Only Bandit has the hope of revitalizing the entire Robb family. Therefore, they chose to stake everything on Bandit. Unfortunately, they lost the bet badly. The Robb family's reputation is now completely ruined. I'm afraid it will take many years to restore it … "

"The smartest thing for them to do next would be to broadcast the execution of Hester in front of all the media. After that, punish all the higher-ups of the family and issue a public apology. "

"However, now that things have come to this, if the Robb Family wants to rise again in the future, they will need to rely on Bandit. The possibility of them killing Hester is not high. I'm guessing they'll just go through the motions and brush off the media. "

Mi Ke Ke's analysis was logical, making everyone nod their heads.

"The things that Hester did deserve to die a hundred times over. As for Bandit, he was ranked ninth on the Transcendent Ranking. If I run into him, I'll definitely give him a good beating! " Gu Ding clenched his fists, but he knew very well that he was no match for Bandit.

"To be able to enter the top ten of the Transcendent Leaderboard, he's indeed a very powerful fellow. It's no wonder the Robb family thinks highly of him." Biggie could not help but sigh. "His nine god sequence chains should have evolved to the third level. With our current strength, it's still not enough to fight him …"

After chatting for a while, everyone returned to their own rooms, leaving only the cleaning robot that Robert had made to clean the place.

Biggie used to do all this work, but now he was much more relaxed. All he had to do was cook and not clean up.

Gu Ding returned to his room and began to deduce the evolution of the third level of the Calamity Chain. He had a vague feeling that he was about to break through.

Early the next morning, news from all the major media outlets spread like wildfire. Hundreds of media outlets were simultaneously broadcasting the Robb family's press conference.

Neptune rested his chin on his hand as he sat on the sofa, watching the press conference.

Mi Ke Ke sat next to him, eating chips and listening to the news.

After the press conference began, the Robb family only acknowledged what Hester had done. He also informed the media that as soon as they received the anonymous email, the family had called for a meeting and sentenced Hester to be crippled of his cultivation and imprisoned for life.

Moreover, that anonymous email was actually a blackmail letter. After the blackmailer didn't receive the promised reward, he exposed the information on the internet to smear the Robb family's name.

As for the hacker's death, they pushed the blame away. The Robb family claimed that it was just a coincidence and that it had nothing to do with the Robb family.

In the past few days, Neptune had found out that the Robb family was not behind the hackers. They had hired an assassin group to do it. In order to prevent the matter from being exposed, the assassin group did not contact the Robb family through email. Instead, they met in person for a meeting, so Neptune had no evidence. Even if the assassin group was exposed, it was impossible for them to divulge information about their employer.

Therefore, the Robb family had pushed the blame away.

However, there were still some reporters who asked more pointed questions.

"Mr. Deputy Chief, why didn't the chief make the statement? Is it because Chief Zell is guilty and doesn't want to lie to his face? "A young lady in her early twenties asked the question.

"Our chief went into seclusion after the last meeting. He doesn't know about what happened on the internet. Besides, there's no need for him to come out just because someone tried to smear the Robb family's name."

"I still stand by what I said. Hester's actions were personal. Although he is a member of the Robb family and his actions are related to our family, none of the other members of the Robb family have ever done something like this. "

"When a family gets bigger and has more members, there will occasionally be black sheep among the flock. Actually, if you look through history, you can see that many other aristocratic families have had members who made mistakes in the past. "

"As members of the upper echelons of the family, we naturally hope that our family will never have a scum who tarnishes the family's name. But that's just a beautiful wish. All we can do now is try our best to minimize the chances of this happening. "

"According to what we know, aristocratic families have very strict rules. Based on Hester's behavior, there were many cases that involved human lives, and there were even worse cases. Most aristocratic families would have sentenced him to death. Why didn't your family just execute Hester? "The one who asked the question was a bespectacled man.

"You're right. Under normal circumstances, people like Hester would have been sentenced to death. It's the same in the Robb family. But Hester is Bandit's younger brother. Bandit took on a portion of the punishment to prevent his brother from being sentenced to death. Also, considering the family's future development, we were a little lenient in dealing with this matter. We have to apologize to everyone for that. But don't worry, Hester will never appear alive anywhere other than the Robb family's death cell. To the outside world, he's no different from being dead. "

Deputy Patriarch Aubrey had a glib tongue and resolved all the crises.

After pushing all the blame onto Hester, the Robb family became the victim of Hester's slander. This move of his was indeed brilliant, and many of the citizens were convinced by it.

"Looks like I guessed right. They still won't kill Hester." Mi Coco laughed after listening.

"The Robb family played a beautiful move. They tampered with my mail and turned it into a blackmail letter. They also pushed the blame for the assassination of the hacker away. As for Hester's actions, it was completely his own. The family became the victim … This is how aristocratic families do things … "Neptune smiled bitterly.

"Although they managed to turn the tables in the end, it's not completely unaffected. It's easy to fool the common people, but the other aristocratic families, major factions, and the Five Great Imperial Clans are not. In these circles, the Robb family's reputation is still very bad. Moreover, the truth will always be the truth. Sooner or later, the lies will not be able to cover it up … "Mi Coco only smiled faintly as she consoled him.
