Azure Dragon came before Benny and gave a military salute. “Welcome to North Hampton, Mr. Quinton!”
Benny’s knitted brows became smooth again as he smiled, “Sorry for the trouble, Azure Dragon.”
“No worries, Mr. Quinton,” Azure Dragon smiled. “Even if it’s not on the God of War’s orders, I would have come to pick you up myself. You’re one of the people I respect.”
“Hahaha, that’s my honor then!” Benny gave a chortle.
It was at the moment that everyone realized it was the God of War who had invited Benny to North Hampton, and that the old friend that he spoke of must be the God of War himself.
Upon hearing that, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Aside from the God of War, who else in North Hampton had the right to invite Mr. Quinton?
They were both Erudia’s national treasures!
“Mr. Quinton,” said Azure Dragon, suddenly remembering something. “The God of War has asked you to stay for a few more days, as he would like to invite you to attend the North Hampton Warzone commander-in-chief’s appointment ceremony. The new commander-in-chief is one of the God of War’s men.”
“Hahaha, I can’t believe I could have this opportunity! Sure, I’ll be there!”
Winston, Eric and the others were excited to hear that.
Does that mean we could meet the two greatest gods of Erudia at the appointment ceremony?
Right then, Azure Dragon gave Benny a wink, who then looked in a certain direction and immediately understood his meaning.
“I’ll catch up with you later, Azure Dragon. There’s someplace I need to be. I don’t want to keep them waiting,” Benny said.
Everyone’s curiosity piqued.
Why isn’t he leaving with Azure Dragon?
Where is he going?
“Alright, Mr. Quinton. I’ll see you soon,” Azure Dragon said, then turned toward the media reporters, warning, “You can shoot all the pictures you want and report about this, but don’t let it affect Mr. Quinton or you’ll be sorry for this!”
Azure Dragon’s words made the reporters’ blood run cold.
Thank goodness he didn’t chase us away.
We can still report something newsworthy.
Under the watchful eyes of thousands of people, Benny slowly walked to the back.
Everyone was eager to know who was picking him up.
Vroom! Vroom! Vroom!
At that moment, the sound of an engine roaring filled the air.
A Porsche sports car screeched to a halt.
Iris got down from the car and stormed toward Levi. “Levi Garrison, what the hell are you doing here? Come with me now to Everest Entertainment to apologize! The company is about to be ruined because of you!”
“For what? Can’t you see I’m waiting to pick up someone?” Levi said irritably.
“Is there even anyone for you to pick up? Come with me now! There are zero sales on our new products, do you know that? We’re going to lose a lot of money! At least 1.8 billion!”
“It’s all for your fault! We wouldn’t have lost so much if it weren’t for you!”
At that, Iris grabbed Levi’s arm and was about to leave.
She had her back facing the crowd, so she didn’t know what was going on and that Benny and his assistant were walking toward them.
Levi tried to contain his rage. “Just leave! The person I’m picking up is coming soon!”
“No way! Unless I die today, Levi, you are coming with me to Everest Entertainment!”
Iris was unyielding as she tried to pull Levi away.
“Are you here to pick me up, miss?” a voice suddenly rang out from behind Iris.
When Iris looked back, her heart did a somersault.
