Chapter 185: Arrival of the Tianlongren

William raised his index finger and tapped the table lightly: "You mean, the princes and nobles of the Goa Kingdom, in order to welcome the inspection team of the World Government and the Tianlong people, took the initiative to set fire to the garbage and residents of the entire terminal of the uncertain object. Let's burn it all together?"

Gesetta nodded: "That's right."

"It's so ruthless..." William sighed after hearing the words, and he didn't know whether to say in admiration or sarcasm, "Compared with them, I, a pirate, would also be willing to bow down."

William thought he could be considered ruthless, if he could only be considered black-bellied when he first crossed, but after going through so many things, he has already been called murderous without blinking an eye, but even such William didn't say anything, even wanted to However, because he felt that the population and environment of the slums were cumbersome, he burned the area and the residents living in it, and wiped them off the map of Kalmar City.

Others in the room also looked at each other, and after a while, Dampier frowned and said: "Do you want to expose it? When this matter is investigated, it is actually because of the relationship between the Tianlong people. The inspection team is coming soon. Let's expose this matter now, isn't it?" What a great idea."

Anything in this world that involves Tianlong people will not be a trivial matter.

William smiled indifferently: "I know, so don't expose it immediately."

He told Gesetta: "However, the newspapers can publish some suspense now, such as questioning the extent of the fire, the number of casualties, and then revealing the hidden truth behind it bit by bit. By then, the inspection team will almost leave the East China Sea. What are they waiting for?" Time to go, when will we lift the veil behind the incident."

"You mean you want us to write the news as a suspenseful story?" the editor-in-chief said cleverly.

William smiled and clapped his hands: "That's right."

"But exposing this matter, what good is it for us?" Aramis wondered.

"Why not?" William asked back.

...

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day when the world government inspection team comes to Kalmar City.

William did not relax the reception work because he disliked the Tianlong people in his heart. The ship of the World Government inspection team had just approached the pier, and there was a crisp sound from the shore, and the colorful fireworks turned into colorful paintings in the air. Against this background , white sky lanterns float towards the sky.

A group of extras, no, spontaneously organized people, holding flowers, rushed to the pier one after another to welcome the arrival of the world government inspection team.

Like the Kingdom of Goa, William also set up a high platform covered with a red carpet and decorated with flowers, all the way from the pier to the palace.

However, no matter how high the reception standard is, it is impossible to compare with Goya Kingdom.

As mentioned earlier, the slum area of ​​Kalmar City is located on the edge of the city, almost surrounded by the civilian area and the noble area. Although the people of the world government inspection team landed at the wharf in the civilian area, it was inevitable to see it when the boat was driving. To the appearance of the slums.

Compared with the indeterminate terminus that was burned to the ground by a fire, although the slums of Kalmar City are no longer as densely populated and full of crimes as before after William's efforts, they are still dirty and dilapidated buildings like a maze. The public facilities are still an eyesore.

After going ashore, William used the excuse that King Norton I and his family went to the villages and towns in the country to inspect the progress of the movement to the countryside. However, due to weather problems, the ship was damaged and could not return on time to meet the inspection team and representatives of the world's nobles.

The people of the world government would never have thought that the young man in front of him who swaggered and came to greet them as the first consul of the kingdom was a traitor who thought it was troublesome and threw the king's family and disobedient nobles into the countryside to eat dirt .

The welcome ceremony cannot be said to be incomplete, but William, or everything that the Navia Kingdom has shown, still makes the representative of the Celestial Dragons, Jermark Saint, feel that he has been slighted.

Therefore, when William led his subordinates pretending to be nobles on the pier and knelt down to salute him, he kicked the slaves under him with his shoes and ordered him to come to William. After observing William condescendingly, he also Not letting William get up, he kicked the slave and led him away, his dissatisfaction was palpable.

"asshole!"

Harden and some vicious pirates were arranged by William on a backlit hill in the distance, leading the students of New East College to watch the scene at the pier.

Seeing Tianlongren's behavior from a distance, Harden's face turned red, and he couldn't help gritting his teeth and scolding.

Others under William may be photographed by the "prestige" of the Tianlong people, and dare not make mistakes, and hold dissatisfaction in their hearts, but Harden will not be like this.

The drunkard pirate Hutchison rubbed his nose, and when he saw this, he tightly grasped Harden's wrist, for fear that Harden would do something wrong on impulse: "Forget it, that's a Tianlong man, the captain can't help it." .”

Harden cursed again, and shook off Hutcherson's big hand: "I'm so fucking upset, do you have any wine with you?"

Hutcherson reluctantly handed his flagon to Harden, and seeing the latter take it, he unceremoniously poured down half of the jug before wiping his mouth and closing the lid.

Some students beside the two were also whispering among each other.

Hughes Holt, like Harden, saw the situation on the court, and his face was filled with displeasure: "What's so great about the Tianlongren, why should Lord William kneel down?"

Elijah Reed, who is also Sabo's roommate and the son of a doctor, was much calmer in comparison. He said: "I said in class that this is the basic etiquette for the world's nobles, which is not bad. You Look at the slave being ridden under him, how miserable it is."

Hughes Hot said dissatisfied: "Bullshit etiquette, Tianlong people are a bunch of moths, just like the nobles in the country..."

Sabo on the side suddenly made a sound, interrupting the argument between the two: "Stop arguing, and watch Abram and the others."

Hughes Holt and Elijah Reid looked at the opposite side together, where Abram and a group of children from the kingdom of "Tecchila Wolf" on the bridge were staring at the pier. .

There are several times more adults watching them than Sabo, just because they are afraid that they will cause trouble.

Abram was breathing more and more heavily, his mind was in a mess, and all kinds of thoughts came out over and over again. When he arrived at school and received education, he and other children from the bridge kingdom "Tecchila Wolf" It is already known who ordered the bridge to be built and who is responsible for their miserable lives.

The loving face of his mother seemed to appear in front of Abram's eyes. Because of his own experience, these children from Tequila Wolfe had to train harder than their peers, and Abram was the most important among them. His grades are among the best among his peers.

The teaching contents of gymnastics and swordsmanship kept appearing in Abram's mind. He was sure that as long as he was given a chance to get close, he would be able to use the cruelest and most vicious means to kill that bloated and slack-eyed man. Dragon people.

It was just the admonishing eyes of the adults beside him that kept him from acting rashly.

Not far away, Sabo and the others shuddered involuntarily when they saw the group of peers who were about to choose and devour.

"The people from Tequila Wolfe are really miserable. During the heart-to-heart meeting, Abram also talked about him and his mother," Hughes Holt, who was born in a slum, looked at the opposite side , and said sympathetically, "Since then, I know why he studies and trains so hard."

Elijah Reed next to him said worriedly: "I heard that in the future, the outstanding graduates of the school will be awarded the saber by the principal himself, and they can directly enter the attendant's room. In the future, this honor will not be given to Tequila. The students who come out of Wolf will take it away?"

"Just thinking about this, do you have any sympathy?" Hughes Holt said dissatisfied.

The two lived under the same roof, but the roommates who didn't deal with each other quarreled again.

Seeing this, Sabo sighed.
