Chapter 2881 Scared Of Me
As soon as Gideon shouted, the fighters he had with him rushed over to block Dr. Erebus’ path.
They were there to prevent him from jumping and collecting the flower.
Every single one of them flushed their spiritual energy out, ready to fight.
They would attack if Dr. Erebus were to try to do anything at all.
Gideon looked at the yellow flower and sneered. “You are not allowed to take that away. In fact, you are not allowed to take anything here.”
“Why is that?” asked Dr. Erebus.
Gideon chuckled and replied, “I haven’t seen you guys before, and I can tell that some are from Adrune while the others are from Bayview. It makes sense that you are unaware of this, but this is my turf. Everything here belongs to me, and you are not allowed to take anything away.”
“Yeah, he’s right! This is our turf,” said the others.
Dr. Erebus laughed when he heard that. “Oh, puh-lease. I know all about this piece of land. It doesn’t belong to anyone.”
“That’s bullsh*t! It is located near Jeradus, so this piece of land belongs to us,” insisted Gideon.
“That’s right. This is Jeradus territory, and every citizen in the country can vouch for that,” said the other men who were with Gideon.
Gideon grinned. “Exactly! Every single tree, every blade of grass, every grain of sand… Everything here belongs to Jeradus, and that includes the magical herbs over there.”
Dr. Erebus laughed once more in response to that. “My gosh, you are funny. Do you really think I know nothing? This piece of land doesn’t belong to anyone at all. In fact, it has been labeled a Rank Three restricted area by all four surrounding countries.”
Gideon instantly blushed a little after his lies were exposed.
Despite his face burning, he lied, “What are you talking about? What does Rank Three restricted area even mean? This is Jeradus’ territory. If you insist on calling it a Rank Three restricted area, then tell me, what does it take to label an area a Rank Three restricted area?”
Dr. Erebus actually knew everything about the changes in policies after the environment was changed.
He grinned and replied, “For a place to be given that label, a Deity-level mutated beast must roam there.”
Gideon nodded. “That’s right. Now, look around. Are there any Deity-level beasts? Heck, even regular beasts are nowhere to be seen, so how can this be a Rank Three restricted area?”
“Yeah, your claim is invalid because there are no beasts around here. Go on, show us where the Deity-level beast is.”
“That’s right. Show us the beast, why don’t ya? Only then will we recognize this place as a Rank Three restricted area.”
Everyone else was in agreement.
There was no way they would admit that the place was a Rank Three restricted area. Instead, they would stand firm and regard that place as Jeradus’ land.
That response made sense. Things had progressed to that extent, and there was no going back anymore.
Plus, they weren’t going to let others take those magical herbs.
“Hahaha.”
Levi suddenly laughed.
“The only reason the beast is not here is that it is scared of me. It’s hiding now. Oh, and you should probably know that I scared two Deity-level beasts into hiding,” said Levi.
He was right.
At the border of that restricted area was another restricted area. The Deity-level beast there was shivering fearfully while crouching in the corner. It couldn’t run at all.
The two beasts weren’t within the same restricted area, but Levi detected them both. That was why he claimed there were two.
“Huh? Did I hear you right? Not one but two Deity-level beasts are afraid of you?”
“Hahaha.”
Levi’s words got everyone laughing aloud.
They looked at Levi as though he were an idiot.
“Oh dear, you realize that I can make the same claim, right?”
“My gosh, you are such a liar. Even Gideon’s dad, the Deity, can’t scare those beasts into hiding themselves, so there is no way you can do it.”
Naturally, no one believed in what Levi said.
Even Dr. Erebus had his doubts and assumed that Levi lied to send the youngsters away.
