âDonât go out yet. I really want to know why these warships are gathering here and whether they are coming for me,â David said seriously. Astrid was just about to persuade David so he would not act recklessly because of rage.
In the end, she did not say anything when she suddenly saw Davidâs serious expression.
Men should be like him. No matter what happened, they should be calm, cool-headed, and indomitable.
Her father, Emperor Nimbus, was such a man, and David was the same.
Astrid unconsciously compared David to her father, Emperor Nimbus.
Both of them could give her a great sense of security.
The Octagon moved forward, and David stared at the countless battleships ahead.
Soon, it reached the front of the group, and their path forward was blocked. Therefore, the Octagon could only stop.
After the Octagon stopped, some of the ships in front of them circled behind it to surround David and the others.
âDavid Lidell, you canât escape now. Come out and surrender!â A voice came from a Galaxy Warship.
David narrowed his eyes. These ships did come for him.
âWhatâs going on?â
This was the first time he had come to the Royal Region, but these people knew his whereabouts and were waiting for him here.
Something was not right. âIs it the Callisto family?
âCanât be.
Even though the Callisto family was one of the eight prominent families and ranked second in the ranking, they could not mobilize so many ships.
Moreover, there were so many Milky Way Battleships and several Galaxy Warships.
The Callisto family would not have this strength.
The Tuffin family was even more out of the question. Firstly, their strength was way too lacking, and secondly, the Meteor Chamber was watching the Tuffin familyâs every move now. Hence, David would know if the Tuffin family planned to do something big. âIf thatâs the case, who else had such power?â
David had countless questions in his mind.
Since he could not figure it out, then he would not. He decided to ask them straight away.
He scanned the scene in front of him with his mind power.
He did not find any Infinity Rankers. âWho are you? I donât think I know you, right?â David asked.
His voice came from the Octagonâs loudspeaker before spreading to the countless ships. 1 âHehe⦠It doesnât matter who we are. Itâs also fine if you donât know us. The only thing matters is that we know you. Stop spewing nonsense. Come out and surrender now. Youâve wasted a lot of our time.
Do you not see all of us waiting for you?â Another voice came from another Galaxy Warship.
âYou have to at least let me know whatâs going on after doing so much to kill me, right? Who has the authority to make so many of you wait for me here? Also, what are you trying to do?â David asked again.
âYouâre so f*cking annoying. How can you have so many questions? Get out now and follow me. If you behave, Iâll give you some of the reward money.â This time, someone else spoke.
Before David could say anything, someone retorted, âYves, there are so many of us here, so why should David go with you? Wouldnât that mean all of us here have wasted our time?â.
âWhat does that have to do with me? Did I ask you to f*cking come? Iâll kill you right now if you dare to make another squeak!â The man named Yves barked back.
The one who questioned Yves just now did not dare to say anything anymore. Clearly, he was worried that Yves would really kill him. Everyone knew of Yves Townsendâs style. David learned something from the conversation. Someone paid money to capture him, and these people were not from the same gang. There should be a lot of different forces here.
When Yves saw no one speaking anymore, he continued arrogantly, âHehe, David, if you donât come out, donât blame me for going over there to capture you myself. Donât blame me for crippling you when that happens since I donât know my own strength. Who asked you to be so disobedient?â
