Chapter 1818: Chapter 551 I must take this batch of equipment_4

Feeling the killing intent like needles, Lenny couldn’t help but swallow.

But despite the shock, he wasn’t much afraid.

After all, he wouldn’t live long anyway. Coming here, he just wanted to see that old friend one last time.

Following this madness, he seemingly had nothing to lose.

Seeing the two blocking their way so brazenly, the people of Orlan Royal Court were on high alert, unsure of the duo’s origin.

The leading elder stepped forward and questioned, "Who are you?"

Leonard Churchill recognized the guy, having seen him many times before.

He was Jolin, one of the Four King’s Knights, known as the "Forbidden Curse Master".

The last time they met was in the Divine Ruins Treasure House, where those four guys were beaten up by Barre Shepherd.

Back then, they were still Legendary Card Masters. Now, looking at them, they seemed to be Eighth Rank?

"Tsk tsk... The Moon God’s dream space is indeed a powerful tool for cultivating top-rank card masters..."

Leonard thought to himself.

This is the Royal Family’s foundation.

Not surprisingly, anyone who could advance to legend in such an environment was exceptionally talented.

Upon hearing the question, Leonard openly lifted his cloak, revealing a face full of mischievous smiles.

If a fight broke out, he couldn’t hide his Professional Sequence.

After all, his fame in the East Wilderness wasn’t small.

He had been wanted since he was a Card Disciple.

Leonard remembered the last time he was wanted in the East Wilderness was when he and Sophia Jones went to White Family’s City of Thieves and then killed the Holy Tribunal members from the Southern Continent who came to capture Ivan.

This face of his should be recognized by the high-level people of Orlan Royal Court.

Sure enough, seeing his face, most of the people from Orlan Royal Court recognized him.

The elders remained calm, but the youngsters couldn’t.

Ray knew Leonard from the arrest warrant but was seeing him in person for the first time. He vaguely found him familiar.

Upon looking at his aura and the playful smile at the corner of his mouth, Ray suddenly realized, "It’s you!"

He looked exactly like the guy who bought him before!

Seeing Leonard appear here, Ray wasn’t stupid and immediately guessed something, "You are here for the Titan Mech, after all!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in Orlan Royal Court tensed up.

"Ah... it’s me." Leonard looked at the more than a hundred people full of killing intent and grinned without a trace of fear.

Instead, he teased Ray, "You’re not dumb after all. I am indeed here for this equipment."

"You..."

Ray was furious at the blatant robbery. Did they think the Forbidden Curse Master’s clan had no one?!!!

The atmosphere was tense, and a fight seemed imminent.

The elder clan leader Elsa, in the center of the team, lightly exclaimed, "Wait!"

She had just exchanged a glance with Jolin and realized that the people before them were powerful, and fighting might not be wise.

At the same time, she saw the other person beside Leonard and inexplicably held some anticipation.

...

Next to them, Ray saw Leonard not hiding and also lifted his cloak, revealing an older face that had been hot on the arrest warrant recently.

Upon seeing this face, others didn’t think much, but Elsa’s eyes trembled instantly.

Seeing old friends meeting again, both were filled with emotions.

Yet in front of so many people, they didn’t utter a single word.

After a silent gaze, Elsa’s eyes turned suspicious: Are you helping outsiders to harm me?

Lenny knew his old friend misunderstood.

Although Leonard came to rob... that was true.

But it wasn’t to harm her.

If it was before, knowing Leonard came to rob the Titan Battle Armor, Lenny wouldn’t have shown up.

He was friends with Leonard, so he didn’t mind if Orlan Royal Court’s items got stolen.

As long as his old friend and grandson were safe, nothing else mattered.

But now showing up was more significant. Lenny knew there was a legitimate King Augustus!

Knowing this truth, he clearly understood the current Four Knight Families’ loyalty to that "Fake King" was utterly foolish.

He wasn’t harming his old friend, but correcting their mistakes.

However, it wasn’t the right time to say these words.

Seeing his old friend’s doubtful and gradually angry gaze, Lenny quietly avoided it.

He glanced at Leonard beside him and slightly sighed in his heart.

He truly didn’t know what Leonard planned to do.

Right now, I can’t explain.

The two sides stood in a standoff.

.....

Clearly, the Orlan Royal Court had an absolute advantage in numbers with over a hundred people, plus the top-tier combat power of the "Forbidden Curse Master" Jolin.

Logically, as long as a Ninth Tier did not appear, they could handle it.

However, they were blocked on the road by Leonard Churchill and his companion, and no one dared to act impulsively despite the silence.

Because Leonard Churchill’s mocking smile gave a very eerie feeling of unease.

As if the moment they acted, they would face a catastrophic disaster.

Although Leonard Churchill did not look at Lenny, he sensed the sorrowful gaze exchanged between him and the old woman.

Leonard Churchill grinned, confirming the depth of their relationship.

And it was not a case of an old friend being used.

Others did not know that it was this confirmation that restrained the violent killing intent in Leonard Churchill’s eyes.

Otherwise, he truly did not believe these people could stop him from forcibly taking these goods.

The standoff lasted two breaths.

Leonard Churchill spoke first, but instead of mentioning anything about the goods, he asked seemingly irrelevant questions: "Are you from the Herlands Family?"

The old woman finally spoke: "So what if we are?"

Although she knew these two had saved her grandson, she did not show any kindness.

She was not foolish.

From the current situation, it was clear the two saved him with ill intentions.

Surely, they had left a mark on her grandson, allowing them to track him.

Leonard Churchill did not elaborate, continuing to ask: "I am curious about one thing. Are you loyal to the King of Augustus or the Orlan Royal Family?"

The old woman did not understand why he asked this and coldly replied: "Hmph! I don’t know who you are. But our Herlands Family is the Guardian Knight of the King. Do not try to sow discord! No matter what you say, it is meaningless."

Leonard Churchill raised an eyebrow and said: "Oh. So you are loyal to the King of Augustus then?"

Some things were not suitable for public discussion.

Revealing the truth now would not only fail to persuade them but would also make people think they harbored malicious intent.

...

The old woman heard this and remained silent.

She could not deny it, nor could she admit it.

Leonard Churchill did not press further.

That was enough.

The old woman could not discern the purpose of the two of them and asked again: "May I ask why you are blocking us?"

Her tone carried the domineering attitude of a King’s Knight Family, cleverly expressing that they did not want to fight, but were not afraid of a deadly battle.

Leonard Churchill looked at the old woman, taking another glance, and remarked: "As expected of the old clan leader of the Herlands Family..."

He had to admit, these old noble families indeed had strong foundations.

But with different allegiances, Leonard Churchill would not hesitate to kill if necessary.

He glanced at the mechanical equipment in the group and said directly: "I am definitely taking these goods."

Before the hundred-plus people could get angry, he continued: "However, because my friend has an old connection with your family, I do not want to make things difficult for you. As you know, we are not far from Sinless City. If a fight breaks out, I do not mind, but you definitely cannot leave."

Hearing this, Lenny’s eyelid twitched, glancing at Leonard Churchill, as if saying: Mentioning me now, it doesn’t seem like you’re showing goodwill, more like inciting hatred.

Sure enough, his old lover glared angrily at him.

Lenny still did not realize that Leonard Churchill was genuinely giving a huge favor because of their friendship.

Leonard Churchill was determined to take these goods.

If faced with resistance, he wouldn’t mind killing everyone here by himself.

....

The hundred-plus people from the Herlands Family were furious.

They were about to act.

However, the old clan leader halted them again: "Stop!"

With her experience, she could see through people, but looking at the young man with the cunning smile, she couldn’t fathom him.

She felt a strong sense of crisis, as though if they acted, the consequences would be dire.

Looking at her old friend Lenny, the old woman had an unbelievable thought: Could he actually be helping me?

But why would he collaborate with outsiders then...

The old clan leader pondered for a moment and finally asked Leonard Churchill: "What do you want?"

Hearing this, Leonard Churchill beamed and said: "How about this, a large-scale battle is inappropriate. How about we duel?"

This proposal was beneficial for both sides.

The Herlands Family members did not dare to speak out.

And Leonard Churchill did not want top-tier experts from the Iris Legion targeting him for these goods.
