They all call me Great Master-Chapter 872 - 869 Impostor VI
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Arthur applauded Marinda.
He always felt his methods were sometimes too ruthless, but compared to Marinda, he felt like a truly kind person.
He just had people sign more contracts.
He didn't make anyone take slow-acting poisons, did he?
He didn't hold other people's families hostage, did he?
'I am truly kind!'
Arthur praised himself in his heart.
Then, he directly said—
"Remember to feed some poison to Appok's family too.
Don't use the same slow-acting poison.
It's best if it could be a mix of poisons."
Abel: ...
Just a moment ago, while feeling fortunate that his master merely had a habit of using contracts and wasn't as cruel as a Blood Ancestor Worm, he was practically about to cry.
However, before the tears could fall, he reacted.
He was all alone!
He had no family!
Instantly, a smile appeared on the face of this Blood Ancestor Worm.
But the smile soon stiffened.
He didn't even have a family.
Suddenly, the tears could no longer be held back.
Abel dug his head into the ground and cried sorrowfully.
Arthur sensed it.
But he didn't comfort him; instead, he was only delighted.
Arthur wasn't fully aware of the family values of the Blood Ancestor Worm.
At least, he didn't know before.
Now?
Seeing Abel's appearance, he vowed to find him a female worm and they had to produce a bunch of little worms, then?
Of course, to repay him for bringing them into being.
He, Arthur, wasn't a Devil.
He would never use poison to control Abel's family, but each member had to sign twenty-seven contracts.
While Abel was crying, he suddenly shivered all over.
Strangely, the Blood Ancestor Worm felt a chill all over.
Meanwhile, hearing Arthur's words, Marinda snorted disdainfully.
"Ha."
No words were needed, nor was any description necessary; Arthur understood the answer.
Marinda had clearly already done so.
He didn't need to remind her at all.
"Having you as my collaborator is truly wonderful!"
Saying this, Arthur quickly shifted the topic.
"Any more?
The danger level of the Inner Bay far exceeds my expectations.
I think I need some extra help."
Arthur asked with a smile.
"No more!
You think the Secret Police in the Inner Bay are useless?
Appok is my biggest trump card hidden in Kilg Harbor's Docklands!
If it weren't for the complex situation in the Docklands, even Appok couldn't stay hidden!"
Marinda said angrily.
Arthur, still smiling, continued to ask.
"Then you..."
"No!"
Marinda directly interrupted Arthur's obvious shameless idea and then simply ended the communication.
However, right as the communication ended, Marinda instantly realized.
She was tricked!
Arthur did it on purpose!
Arthur couldn't possibly be unaware of the situation at Kilg Harbor in the Inner Bay!
Arthur was clearly asking obvious questions to provoke her, making her end the communication herself!
Arthur didn't want to discuss the Old Lion's anomaly.
Nor did he want to discuss the anomaly in the Inner Bay.
Upon realizing this, Marinda squinted her eyes.
'Is it that he doesn't want to?
Or can't he?'
After thinking deeply for a moment, the lady chose not to contact Arthur again; she knew Arthur's character well, since he didn't want to, he surely wouldn't inform her.
Instead of making things difficult for Arthur, she'd rather see what this bastard was planning.
Of course, she had to curse him as well.
"You damned bastard!
Just wait and see!"
Cursing as she swung her fists in the air, it was as if Arthur was licking his face standing right in front of her.
After at least a dozen punches, the lady finally calmed down completely.
She thought about the current situation.
Soon, the lady found a breakthrough point.
The Old Lion and Inner Bay were not things she could get involved in.
But South Los was a different story.
Or more accurately—
Her cousin.
Countess of South Los.
"Edwin, prepare the car."
The lady commanded.
"Alright, madam."
The strong coachman quickly got ready.
When the carriage disappeared into the night, the 'Spirit Medium' approached Kilg Harbor from the bottom of the river.
At this moment, Arthur truly entered the Inner Bay area.
Although the 'Spirit Medium' infiltrated from the riverbed, and Kilg Harbor is an excellent deep-water harbor, Arthur didn't approach the Docklands.
He believed the Little Lion would never set up his 'dock' in the eye-catching Docklands.
It must be in a less noticeable place.
That's where the Little Lion's secret base is.
However, it's not safe there.
With the news of the Little Lion's death spreading, that place would surely be targeted by many scheming people.
It might even become a 'fish pond'.
Arthur liked fishing but didn't like being fished.
So, Arthur stopped a considerable distance from Kilg Harbor, surfacing at an opportune spot on the river, where Fujin and Wuni, symbolizing Arthur's eyes, flew into the night sky.
Then Kuliqi and Kiri joined.
Crows patrolled the surroundings.
Hounds searched for the target.
The target, naturally, was Appok.
Even besides the assistance 'Appok' given by Marinda, he had two additional helpers.
Bell Tower Street No. 107, Van Helsing.
Crimson Lane No. 13, Lady Selene.
The former was recommended by Ms. Camille.
The latter was suggested by Grandma Susan.
But besides the help from Marinda's Appok, these two helpers seemed too conspicuous; Arthur didn't want to draw attention for seeking assistance, especially with Grandma Susan's emphasis on Lady Selene, the 'help once, then stay away' kind of reminder, he felt it would be trouble.
So, it was better with ordinary Appok.
At least it wouldn't cause any trouble.
After Kuliqi and Kiri dogpaddled ashore, they hid in the shadows, heading toward Appok's area.
Meanwhile, as Fujin and Wuni reached the skies over the Docklands, they noticed something amiss—
A group of people divided into more than a dozen squads, holding torches and rampaging through the Docklands.
The usually domineering docklands gangs turned into quails at this moment, not daring to show themselves.
In the shadows, there were several Secret Police agents.
However, these Secret Police were actually coordinating with this group.
Instantly, Arthur became interested.
It wasn't that Arthur loved meddling.
But because Arthur discovered the person they were trying to find.
Especially that person, with blonde hair and golden eyes.
The golden hair was clearly disguised with potion.
But concealing the pale gold eyes wasn't so easy.
Even highly-valued lenses would reveal clues.
At least, from Fujin and Wuni's perspective, it was as if they were not wearing any.
Using the eyes of the Crow, seeing those pale golden eyes hidden beneath the lenses, Arthur couldn't help but smirk—
"This is getting interesting!"
