Chapter 292
Chapter 292
The people in Paramount scrutinized those who came from the outer district.
They detested Jacob. Even more so after finding out about the crime he had committed when he was a fugitive in Paramount.
"It's for the greater good, Governor."
The Fest family's affluent background enabled Zachary to push Gordon's boundary.
"Fine. We are desperate, and it's for the greater good.... Speaking of which, do you have any idea the liquidity value of Draco Chamber of Commerce?
"According to our intel, the assets are beyond ten billion."
"Ten billion... If that is the case, you may contact Jacob to enquire the possibility of an alliance."
Although Gordon abhorred Jacob, this time he had no choice but to compromise, for his supremacy in Paramount that was at stake.
He could turn a blind eye to The Scarlet Dragons' expansion in Paramount if Jacob was willing to help him through this exorbitant ordeal.
Zachary excused himself after consenting with Gordon.
...
During the afternoon. At the entrance of The Pavillion.
"Stop right there and report yourself!" Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
The security guard on duty hollered when he noticed a middle-aged man walking toward the entrance.
"I'm here to see Jacob Lynch."
"Our big boss, Mr. Lynch? Who are you?!"
Zachary darted a casual glance at the guard and activated an aura blast.
Poof…
The guard didn't have time to react to the sudden attack. He spat out a mouthful of blood from sustaining an internal injury.
"Code red! We are under attack!"
The other guard triggered the alarm as soon as he saw his colleague being assaulted by an intruder.
The entire of The Pavillion was on high alert. Flocks of Dragon Guardians stormed out from the building and mustered at the entrance.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass on The Scarlet Dragons' territory!?"
Nico lined up the defense and reprimanded coldly as he emerged before the Dragon Guardians.
"The Scarlet Dragons' territory? This place is under the jurisdiction and governing of Central Federation, a territory of the Governor of Paramount!"
Zachary sneered coldly.
"Don't blame me since you're here to find trouble!"
Nico smirked coldly before stomping his right foot on the ground.
Boom!
A cavity with numerous extensions of crevice marred the exquisite marble floor. On the other hand, Nico promptly zapped and appeared before Zachary.
"I want to see Jacob Lynch right now!"
Zachary didn't care to spare a glance at Nico. He just casually wafted his hand at Nico.
"Get…"
Three hundred Dragon Guardians were present, but none of them could clearly see how Nico was put out and sent hovering in the air.
"Nico!"
Several Dragon Guardians who were also Nico's buddies rushed out from the defense line with a roar when they saw him get injured by Zachary.
"Get Jacob Lynch to come down at once. I'm getting impatient!"
Zachary repeatedly wafted his hand as he said in stipulation.
The several Dragon Guardians who rushed out from their post were jolted away before they could do anything to Zachary.
"Stand down."
The rest of the Dragon Guardians were vexed and had gotten into a stance to avenge their buddies. Just when they were about to charge at Zachary, an orotund voice sounded from behind them.
In spontaneity, all the Dragon Guardians pulled up and dispersed to both sides.
"Are you looking for me?"
Jacob whizzed a cold gaze at Zachary while bringing his guard up.
Zachary was enigmatic. Even he couldn't see through his strength or gauge his ability!
