Chapter 168: Oink oink
Back to square one.
Mike swore that when he gave the turtle to Maxen, he never imagined it would be resolved
this way.
For Maxen, it was a 'twofold joy'.
Nyx Valoria looked troubled, her face showing signs of difficulty.
First, she didn't recognize this Apollo standing before her. His appearance was so ordinary that she would forget it the next second. No matter what, Nyx Valoria couldn't recall Apollo's face in her mind, nor did she find it strange.
Even if Mike brought him, she couldn't just put the bill on Maxen's tab for someone she didn't know!
Previously, when Mike ran up a tab, Maxen had given prior instructions.
Second, Nyx Valoria didn't have the authority to do so.
She smiled politely at Apollo and said directly, "Maxen has frozen all his cards and accounts. Not a single penny can be charged."
To avoid wasting his time, Nyx Valoria added, "Not just the Wolf's Den account, but also at the Mystic Market. Maxen did this to prevent... well, you know. Anyway, as far as I know, his accounts can't be charged for anything right now."
It seemed Maxen had anticipated potential danger and preemptively put up a safeguard. Apollo spoke again, "They can be unfrozen."
Nyx Valoria shook her head with a smile, "Yes, they can be unfrozen, but only if your authority is higher than Maxen's."
Maxen's status was extremely special. Although nominally a ninth-tier Battle Lord, his actual position was even more exalted.
Across all of humanity, only three Supreme Beings or Ultimate Battle Lords had the authority to unfreeze Maxen's accounts.
Even the rumored Thor couldn't do it!
When Maxen froze all his accounts, he had boasted, "That guy, can't possibly get a Supreme Being to unfreeze them. If he can, I'll accept it!"
Two of the three Supreme Beings were his godfathers.
Would his godfathers screw over their own son?
No way!
Apollo?
Even less likely!
Maxen bet that Thor wouldn't dare face Apollo!
He felt very secure.
Nyx Valoria also thought Mike's plan to have Maxen foot the bill was likely to fail.
Apollo, seemingly understanding, took out a card he hadn't used in years and swiped it on the machine.
"Authorizing..."
"Beep Beep-"
"Unfreeze successful!"
Nyx Valoria:...
If she didn't understand what had just happened, she shouldn't be called Nyx Valoria; she should change her name to Shadow Seven!
"Supre... do you have any other instructions?"
Nyx Valoria's voice trembled slightly, and even her body wobbled a bit, struggling to stay upright.
Vladimir's mood instantly brightened!
One thing conquers another!
Vladimir felt a sense of sweet revenge.
Humming a tune, Vladimir pushed open the door.
In Vladimir's view, werewolf Dorian, the miner leader, Teemo, and others were gathered
around a pitch-black wolfdog.
A dog!
Could it be that Mike was turned into a dog by Apollo?
"Hahahaha!"
Vladimir couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Even the thousand-year-old vampire's composure couldn't stop his laughter.
He laughed heartily, confidently, and wantonly!
So satisfying! Vladimir screamed internally, "Thor, you finally got your comeuppance!"
Mike, turned into a dog by Apollo!
Is there anything funnier in the world?
"What's so funny?" Mike's voice came from behind Vladimir, and his smile froze instantly, his whole body
turning to stone.
"Tell me." Vladimir slowly turned around to see Mike staring at him with a forced smile, holding a black
cat and petting it.
After Mike appeared, the pitch-black wolfdog in the room stood up, shook its head,
transformed into Cerberus, and obediently ran to Mike.
Only Vladimir stood there dumbfounded, feeling the crushing weight of his own stupidity.
The dog was Mike's arrangement, just to see Vladimir's reaction.
No one else knew the terror of Apollo, and only Vladimir could think of turning into a dog!
He had been outsmarted!
"You're a clever one. Make yourself presentable."
With that, Mike, holding the cat, kicked the dog, and walked into the room.
He continued discussing the development of the private space with the miner leader, Dorian,
and others.
If Vladimir didn't make himself presentable, Mike would help him do so.
A minute later,
A little pig, walking with heavy steps, entered the room and lay lifelessly beside Cerberus,
letting out a weak sound,
"Oink oink."
