Angelina already knew that Fergus had surrendered himself to the police.
She smiled and looked at Hades, who was standing on the stage. The golden light shone on him, making him look so dazzling.
"This year's Chef's Championship will come to an end. Contestant Hades came out of nowhere and won the championship. His comeback was amazing and will definitely leave a deep mark in the history of the Chef's Championship.
Contestant Angelina's performance was also memorable. Her score of 99.8 points will forever be remembered in the history of the Chef's Championship.
Thank you to every contestant for your wonderful contribution … "
The show came to an end with the host's polite remarks.
The live broadcast was over.
Fergus got up and bowed to the judges and staff on the scene to express his gratitude.
This year's Chef King Tournament started low and went high. Starting from the quarter-finals, it had reached a climax one after another. No matter if it was the attention or the topic, it was far ahead of the previous years. It had reached a height that even he could not replicate.
Then, he sacrificed a direct descendant of a conglomerate and made more than a dozen A-listers in the entertainment industry blow themselves up. This kind of thing … he didn't dare to think about it.
"Congratulations." Angelina walked up to Meg. Although her eyes were red, her smile was clean and bright.
"Thank you." Meg smiled and nodded. He felt a little sorry for her. Fergus' arrest should be a comfort to her, but Nancy didn't take her in. How was she going to deal with the Dixon family's revenge?
"I should thank you for everything you've done, but I'm sorry that you've been put in danger." Angelina looked apologetic.
"I just followed my heart and did something that I should do. You don't have to thank me." Meg shook his head slightly and looked at her deeply. Then, he said goodbye and left.
He didn't want others to think that they were working together premeditated, which was inconsistent with the truth.
"Mr Hades," Angelina called out to Meg. She quickly stepped forward and stuffed something into his hand.
"It's nice to meet you. Maybe we won't meet again, but I'll always remember you," Angelina said seriously. Then, she turned and walked away quickly with a red face.
Meg watched her disappear at the door and walked out of the recording hall. He opened his hand and looked at the blue water droplet pendant lying quietly in his hand.
It was a very ordinary crystal pendant, but it was clear and clean, just like her.
"Who's going to protect her now?" Meg asked Xi, who was following behind him.
"I'll protect her for a while," Xiqing said coldly.
Meg nodded slightly, put away the pendant, and said, "That guy who turned himself in, was a fake, right?"
Xi's eyes were filled with surprise.
"Don't be surprised. Scapegoats aren't a specialty of your Dungeon." There was a hint of mockery in Mag's smile. "However, your underground city's bureaucrats are really rotten to the core. You still dare to accept the fake as real at this time."
"An important direct descendant of a plutocrat family will raise a shadow from a young age. Whether it's appearance, habits, or temperament, it's very similar to the original owner. Other than those close to them, it's hard to tell them apart," Xi explained.
"I want his current position."
"What do you want to do?"
"You know very well."
Their eyes met, and the two of them were silent for a long time.
In the end, Xi looked away first. Meg's bracelet lit up and a location popped up.
The Mara Islands, thirty thousand kilometers away.
"Lend me your battleship."
…
A flying car painted by the military stopped in front of the Moka Building. Two young officers alighted and were led into the building by the Moka Group's executives.
Soon after, the two officers came out of the building, accompanied by Angelina.
Immediately after, the Dungeon Military Secretariat issued a tweet:
"The military's first special chef, Angelina, officially joins the army today! Dixon Group "
"This …" Meg had just come out of Nancy's office and was stunned when he saw the tweet.
He did not expect the military to do this, at least in the atmosphere.
Not only did they let Angelina join the army directly, but they also directly mentioned the Dixon family.
What did this mean? This was a blatant warning!
If anything happened to Angelina, it would be the Dixon family's doing.
If there was anyone in the Dungeon that no one dared to touch, the military was definitely one of them.
Nancy had already confirmed with him that he would join McCarthy Manor and would take him there tomorrow to officially join. He had half a day of free time today.
The mission of sneaking into McCarthy Manor was more than half completed.
Back in the dormitory, Meg locked the doors and windows, avoided the various detection equipment in the building, and left the Moka facility.
"I didn't expect this to be what you meant by protection." Sitting in the battleship, Meg looked at Xi with appreciation.
"You should know very well that this is not something I can decide," Xi said expressionlessly and drove the battleship away from Tucker City.
Meg smiled and did not say anything. He naturally knew that to do this to this extent, it must be that person who gave the nod.
He naturally would not miss the opportunity to beat the tycoons.
"That private island is an important stronghold of the Dixon family and has an all-weather defense system. According to our intelligence, in order to protect Fergus, there should be a half-step Transcendent powerhouse on the island. Are you sure you want to go on the island?" Xi pulled up a map of the island's defenses.
"If I let that kid get away with it, I'll definitely feel uncomfortable," Meg said with a smile.
Xi nodded slightly and pulled up a list of information.
"Barkel, a half-step Transcendent powerhouse, good at using a saber and extremely strong …" Xi began to explain the information to Meg.
"I'll cooperate with you in this operation. From the moment you land on the island, you must leave the island within five minutes to avoid the arrival of the other party's Transcendent powerhouse." Xi turned off the bracelet and looked at Meg with a serious expression. "You should know the difference between the Transcendent and half-step Transcendent better than I do."
"Five minutes is enough." Meg nodded.
"I know you've always been fast." Xi also nodded slightly.
Meg frowned and felt that there was something wrong with these words.
Half an hour later, the vast sea appeared in sight. On the sea, there were hundreds of scattered islands. They had arrived at the Mara Islands.
"I'll help you kill Barkel first. I won't interfere with the rest," Xi said to Meg, who was about to jump off the ship, as the battleship hovered invisibly.
"No problem."
Meg, who had changed into black clothes, agreed and jumped off the battleship. A black longsword appeared under his feet and he flew into the air, flying toward the small island ten miles away.
At the same time, he turned on the camera and started a live broadcast.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, he turned on a delayed live broadcast and set the time to five minutes.
[Trial Fergus!]
Fergus turned himself in? Just a shadow won't do!
