Allen secretly praised in his heart that this Jarraf was indeed an expert. In this situation, any defense or evasion would be half a beat slower than his own attack. Only this kind of life-risking fighting style was the only choice to resolve the crisis. Of course, Allen didn't want to exchange his life for Jarraf's. He immediately withdrew his saber and leaned back, his entire body falling to the ground. Jarraf's sword pulled out a chill and slashed through the air.
With one hand on the ground, Allen kicked out with his legs, forcing Jarraf back slightly before bouncing up and attacking again with his saber.
The two of them fought in front of the main building.
Every time the heavy saber and the longsword collided, intense sparks would shoot out. The collision of their Origin Energy caused the space around them to be spiraling with an invisible storm. Some reckless guards wanted to help, but they were shaken to the point of vomiting blood and dying by the invisible storm. As a result, Roger's guards could only watch from afar.
In the storm named after the blade, Jarraf secretly complained. Allen had almost completely suppressed him. The silver youth's speed was actually not fast, but the black heavy saber was as heavy as a mountain every time. Allen's saber momentum was like a heavy mountain, pressing down on Jarraf to the point that he was almost unable to breathe. If one observed carefully, they would discover that this youth's saber technique only had a few moves back and forth.
However, it was these few seemingly ordinary basic saber techniques that didn't have any unnecessary movements. They were simple and refined, and each saber was filled with explosive Origin Energy. They completely brandished the artifact nature of the Thousand Average Heavy Saber, making it impossible for Jarraf to brandish the sword skills he was good at.
His sword was extremely long, and there was originally a set of skills that could be used to wield a long weapon. Unfortunately, Allen had already seen through the artifact nature of Jarraf's sword long ago. He knew that if he gave this man room to move, it would definitely be difficult to clean up. Thus, from the very beginning, he attacked fiercely at close range, using force to break through skill, forcing Jarraf to do his best to defend against his endless attacks.
Jarraf retreated step by step. When he blocked the thirteenth saber strike, he felt Allen's heavy saber vibrate at a high frequency. This vibration instantly spread throughout his body, causing the Origin Energy in his body to scatter everywhere. Jeralf's expression immediately changed. Just as he was desperately trying to restrain the Origin Energy in his body, Allen took the opportunity to kick him in the chest.
The Origin Energy on his feet exploded, and Jeralf flew backwards like a cannonball, smashing straight into the main building's gate.
Jarraf hit the wall before bouncing back to the ground. He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up. Just as he was about to drag his sword and charge out, he saw that Allen had already entered the door. The young man raised his saber, and the heavy saber swayed slightly above his head, as if it was motionless. However, the scene in front of him suddenly shattered, and a thought flashed through Jeralf's mind: I was instantly cut into pieces by the opponent!
He knew that he was going to die, but after a few seconds, he realized that he was still alive. He couldn't help but look at Allen in surprise.
Allen sheathed his heavy saber and shook his head. "Your sword is not bad. It would be a pity to kill you like this. Besides, I am indeed here to talk business with Mr. Roger. "
Only then did Jeralf realize that Allen had not really killed him just now. He had only borrowed the saber to convey his will, allowing him to feel the scene of the moment he was killed. Naturally, Jeralf didn't know that what Allen had made him feel was the strongest killing move he had at the moment, the Flame Flash Seven Kills!
Applause rang out at the stairs. There was a staircase leading to the second floor in the main building's lobby. Now, Roger, who had changed his clothes, stood at the staircase and applauded, "This is the first time I've seen Jeralf lose so quickly and miserably. Now I'm interested to know, who exactly are you? "
Allen smiled with his heavy saber, "I met Mr. Bach last night. In that case, Mr. Roger should know my identity."
"You are … Sean's boss?" Roger asked in surprise.
"Yes, then Mr. Roger, now you have time to talk to me."
Roger looked at the messy training ground outside and snorted coldly, "You don't seem to have left me any room to refuse. Come on up."
Only after following Roger to the study did Allen carefully size up the slave trader in front of him. Roger looked more like a noble to him, as could be seen from his demeanor and attire. There were some things that money could not pile up, such as temperament. That was a person's background, environment, and upbringing. There was no doubt that Roger had more of a noble temperament.
Allen said frankly, "Many people say that Mr. Roger is a businessman, but what I see now is a gentleman, a noble. In the Purple Roland Harbor, there probably aren't many people with Mr. Roger's temperament. "
Roger's eyes flashed with surprise as he admitted generously, "My father used to be a baron. Unfortunately, he didn't have the ability to manage the territory and even lost his title in the end." When I was twenty years old, I wandered to the Purple Roland Harbor and took root here. I've been lucky for the past twenty years, and I've barely managed to get this position. "
"That's much easier. If I were to deal with a pure businessman, I think I'd have a headache." Allen smiled faintly.
Only then did Roger realize that Allen did not seem like a pure businessman. He frowned and said, "Although Sean and I have worked together a few times before, that was many years ago. And my main business is not textiles, so you see, I really don't see what we have to talk about. Even if you use force, we won't be able to cooperate for long. "
Allen laughed, "You misunderstand. I never thought of using force to coerce Mr. Roger to cooperate. But if we don't, I'm afraid Mr. Roger won't reevaluate our value and strength. "
"What do you mean?"
"It's very simple." Allen leaned forward slightly and said, "I'll be straightforward. Mr. Roger must know that I'm from Sur City. If Sur City wants to rise, it will definitely become a thorn in the side of some people. For example, Sir Maud of Storm City, or a thug like Dick's father. "
Roger's eyelids twitched and he snorted, "I don't understand what you mean."
"Alright, Mr. Roger. It's just you and me here. My suggestion is for you to change partners. For example, me, because very soon, people like Sir Maud and Dick will disappear. Of course, maybe I haven't shown enough strength. But it doesn't matter. Give me three months and I'll prove it to you. In these three months, I just need you to do nothing. Don't interfere with any of my people's activities in Purple Roland Harbor. If I can't get rid of Maud and Dick in three months, I'll be eaten by them without you doing anything, won't I? "
"So you see, you just need to watch from the sidelines, and it won't bring you any loss."
Roger narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes, which were only a slit, shone with lightning. "Mr. Allen, I hope you know what you're talking about?"
"Obviously, aren't you, Sir Maud, and Dick on the same line? And what I'm asking for now is to work with me on another line. You will find that the profits I bring you are not something the two of them can compare to. " Allen said indifferently, "If you agree to my conditions, then I won't pursue the matter of last night at the Red Willow Bar. Mr. Roger, you've done such a big business. You should know how to pick it up and let it go, right? "
Roger was finally moved and smiled, "Mr. Allen is young. Not only is he ambitious, he is also a powerful lobbyist. So, what do you want from me? "
"A lot, such as intelligence from all over the world, slave sales, and so on."
"Intelligence?" Roger looked up and down at Allen. "Mr. Allen is really ambitious. It will be a pleasure to work with someone like you. But as you said, I need to see some proof that you have the strength to replace Maud. "
Allen stood up and said, "You will see that Storm City will be my golden stone. I believe that in the near future, you will be glad that you chose to work with me. "
"I look forward to it." Roger smiled.
After sending off Allen, Jeralf came to the study. Roger asked, "How are your injuries?"
"I won't die. But that person, he's very dangerous. " Jeralf said in a deep voice, "I was quite surprised that I couldn't kill him last night. I didn't expect that what he displayed today was his true strength. Mr. Roger, do you need me to contact someone else? "
"No need." Roger put his hands behind his back and looked at the guards who were cleaning the training ground. "I've already promised him that I'll be a bystander for the time being. This Mr. Allen is very interesting. His eyes are firm and clear. Such a person knows very well what he is doing and what he should do. I want to see what surprises he can bring me. "
Gerald exhaled after hearing Roger's words. Roger turned around and smiled, "Looks like you don't want to be his enemy."
Gerald lowered his head and said, "No matter who it is, losing to the same person twice in a row will inevitably have some shadows."
"You're quite honest." Roger waved his hand and said, "Go tell some ungrateful fellows to behave themselves for the next few months."
"Understood, sir."
When Roger was the only one left in the study, he laughed dryly and said, "Maud, I'm afraid you're in trouble this time. Damn it, when did such a powerful little fellow appear in Sur City? "
Two days later, Allen prepared to return to Sur City. The Lily Chamber of Commerce had already sent a representative to contact Sean. From today onwards, Sur City's cloth would no longer have to worry about selling, and it could be considered as completing an important goal of coming to Purple Roland Harbor. Next, Allen prepared to deal with Storm City and Dick, who had cleaned up the Bloodstone Wilderness. Only when these two disappeared would Sur City and Purple Roland Harbor be truly unimpeded.
Most importantly, he wanted to win over Roger as a partner. From the slave trader, he could get information from all over the place so that he could make plans after leaving the empire's borders. This was the real reason why Allen had taken a fancy to Roger.
