Chapter 1118: Chapter 1118: Memories
"If you dare to be this willful again, I’ll send you back to Demarco Mount!"
Gonzalez City, in a small western-style house.
Julius Reed looked at Lillian Tompson, whose complexion had already improved, and said somewhat angrily, "Why don’t you ever listen? How old are you, still acting like a child?"
He had returned home with a blackwood bracelet when he found Lillian’s arm already somewhat yellow.
Moreover, there were several red lines appearing on it.
Fortunately, he had returned in time to prevent a major disaster.
"Mm."
Lillian, like a child who had done something wrong, hung her head and dared not speak.
"Rest well."
Julius Reed instructed her a few times, then left the room and walked into the living room.
Quella Radcliffe and Bamboo Whitaker were watching TV, and Nelson also sat nearby, looking much recovered.
"How about we celebrate tonight?"
Julius Reed looked at the three women and asked with a smile, "One was kidnapped, another was knocked unconscious, and another cried their eyes out. Thankfully, everyone is fine."
"I have no objections!"
Bamboo Whitaker raised her hand, smiling cheekily, "What shall we eat?"
"I also... have no objections."
Nelson wasn’t Julius Reed’s legal wife and she spoke without much confidence.
"Since no one has any objections, let’s all go out and have fun tonight."
Quella Radcliffe took the hands of Nelson and Bamboo Whitaker warmly and asked, "I heard there’s a new theme restaurant opened in the north of the city that is really popular!"
"Is it that Big Yellow Duck theme restaurant?"
Bamboo Whitaker said excitedly, "I’ve heard about it before but never had the chance to go. Are we really going there?"
Big Yellow Duck is a recently popular theme restaurant, featuring cute cartoon yellow ducks as its theme, offering all-in-one dining and entertainment.
When it first trialed in Morwenna, it attracted many visitors from other provinces.
Now, Gonzalez City is included in the second wave of cities covered by Big Yellow Duck.
Girls always have a soft spot for cute things.
When Bamboo Whitaker heard they were going to the Big Yellow Duck theme restaurant, she was very excited.
"Nelson, what do you think?"
Quella Radcliffe turned around to look at Nelson.
"I’m fine with anything..."
Nelson chuckled softly.
Though she had recovered quite a bit, it would still take some time to completely clear the medicines from Medicine King Valley out of her system.
Her complexion was still a bit pale.
"Since that’s the case, I’ll give Aron Jackson a call to reserve a table."
Julius Reed walked to the balcony and took out his phone to call Aron Jackson.
"I heard there’s a new Big Yellow Duck theme restaurant opened in the north of the city."
"Yes, I own shares in that restaurant," Aron Jackson said cheerily on the other end of the line, "Boss, let’s have a meal there tonight, my treat! Honestly, the food there is really good. Especially since you have a group of ladies with you, it’s very suitable!"
After speaking, he lowered his voice, "There are even water beds there!"
"Get lost!"
Julius Reed frowned slightly, his tone containing a trace of rebuke, "Do you think I am that kind of person? Your boss, me, I’m a respectable person!"
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the other end of the phone.
"What’s going on!" Julius Reed asked alertly.
Could it be that Lowell Tennyson has reached Gonzalez City so quickly?
But that’s impossible!
According to the timeline, the likes of the sword fanatics wouldn’t arrive until tomorrow at the earliest.
Furthermore, for safety reasons, the other party would definitely not dare to take a plane.
If a plane were to explode mid-air, even if it was a sword fanatic, there would be absolutely no chance of survival.
Thunderpeak Hall would definitely choose the most secure method and come by car.
After all, their helicopter had already been shot down once by Julius Reed.
"Not... hey, if you two want to fight, go outside, don’t make a mess here!"
Aron Jackson scolded and explained helplessly, "Yesterday, Terry Moore took Karen to the Big Yellow Duck Restaurant, and after dinner, Terry Moore treated Karen to a ’big health care’. As soon as Karen went in with the girl, Terry Moore turned around and made an anonymous call to report him. Luckily, Karen was secretly following behind, so he didn’t fall for it." 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓅𝓊𝓫.𝒸ℴ𝓶
"Idiot! I just wanted to treat you to jail food! You don’t even thank me, instead you give me laxatives!"
"Damn Terry Moore, luckily I used your phone to save my own number as the reporting number. You directly called my phone, how could I not notice..."
On the phone, the two of them kept arguing.
"I’m taking four female comrades to the Big Yellow Duck Restaurant tonight, ensure the security. In these troubled times, we mustn’t have any issues. Members from sects and the martial community will have Seven Clouds Academy watching, but I mainly need you to watch the restaurant."
Julius Reed instructed.
The battle at Medicine King Valley had brought heavy losses to the martial community.
Many people dared not step foot into Gonzalez City.
And people from Lowell Tennyson would not likely come in the near future.
His biggest opponents at the moment were Granny Xihua and the lineage of the North Sea.
The former was elusive and had cunning Devlin at her side.
The latter still had a large cavalry, ready to move at any moment.
Most importantly, Julius Reed currently did not control the Wolf Cavalry.
This made him quite wary of the Town North King’s cavalry unit.
"Understood! I have shares in the restaurant, and in Gonzalez City, my word is law!"
Aron Jackson assured solemnly on the phone. "Later, I’ll send a car to pick you up."
After speaking, he hung up and started arranging matters.
When Julius Reed stepped out from the balcony, he noticed four women sitting on the sofa, laughing and chatting as they played.
"What are you doing?"
He walked over and took a look.
They were actually playing Mahjong on their phones!
Quella Radcliffe and Bamboo Whitaker were clearly beginners, while Lillian Tompson and Nelson were experts.
People might live forever, but Julius Reed had no interest in this game.
He went to his bedroom and lay on the bed to think.
There had been no news from Frances Leocadia, and Isabella Warm’s whereabouts had plunged into uncertainty.
And regarding the Divine Dragon Tripod, Julius Reed somehow couldn’t remember.
Finally, he went to the cabinet and took out an ancient book stained with fresh blood.
Inside, it contained the top secrets of Seven Clouds Academy.
When the academy fell, core members risked their lives to smuggle this book out.
The blood on it was proof that disciples of Seven Clouds Academy had died in battle!
Through this ancient book, Julius Reed had learned that Devlin had originated from Seven Clouds Academy and was personally promoted by him to the special action team.
This team later splintered.
Most of them defected and established Shadow Gate.
A few were killed, leaving no remains.
Only Devlin switched allegiance to Thunderpeak Hall.
The book was thick, and Julius Reed flipped through it slowly, trying to find some memories.
The reason he hadn’t touched this book for a long time was because part of the contents caused intense pain in his head whenever he read them.
Now, the pain seemed to have subsided.
Turning past the initial pages, Julius Reed’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.
It recorded every major event he had undertaken after arriving at Seven Clouds Academy.
Including every operation, clearly documented.
And the topmost entry, codenamed ’X’.
The goal was actually to deliver the Divine Dragon Tripod to Gonzalez City?
Could it be that when Julius Reed was at Seven Clouds Academy, he already had the Divine Dragon Tripod in his possession?
