On Thursday morning, Li Mochen had just woken up from his meditation when he received a piece of bad news.
The Xuri Company's dormitory and two of its shops were attacked again in the wee hours of the night. The attackers were aggressive and of an unprecedented scale. A total of 30 Outlaws were deployed in three locations.
This was Antonio's counterattack. If he did not react after Richard the Black Axe's death, his competitors and enemies in Atlanta would see it as a sign of weakness, which would lead to a series of consequences.
Fortunately, the Teutonic Crusades were watching over the dormitory. Coupled with the Targaryen family's police force, Antonio did not succeed. As for the shops, Zhang Wei and Sampson had anticipated the attack and evacuated all of their personnel and defense teams from all the shops in the eastern district. Although the two shops were destroyed, no one was injured.
This result was acceptable to Li Mochen. If the shops were destroyed, they could just refurbish them later. If the landlord objected, they could choose another location. But if they died, not only would Li Mochen have to pay for the damages, but it would also deal a heavy blow to the morale of the Xuri Company's employees.
He now had hundreds of millions of gold duns in his hands, so he could accept it. As for the shops in the eastern district, Antonio could do whatever he wanted to them.
After all, he would not dare to do anything to the buildings where the shops were located. Those who owned commercial real estate in the prosperous areas of Atlanta were not people to be trifled with. At most, he would destroy the decorations of the shops and splash paint on them.
As for the renovation costs, he would at most fork out another 300,000 gold duns. The plans of Xuri Company's super shops would also be delayed.
— — For Li Mochen, this was already an acceptable price.
So after receiving Zhang Wei's call, Li Mochen did not react and remained calm.
At this time, Carl Holden had arrived at the Unicorn Apartment.
"According to the latest news, your opponent today, Cardio Rhodes, has been in contact with Antonio's men recently. Therefore, in this afternoon's battle, Ammo, there is a high probability that you will encounter a fellow whose strength has skyrocketed. Not only did the Dragon Witch Cult possess many drugs that were difficult to detect by scientific methods, but they also had a large number of forbidden spells. They had a way to utilize Cardio Rhode's' Ancient Trace 'to the extreme. Therefore, the company hopes that you can go to the Naessen Gate in the morning and let our sports laboratory do another comprehensive test for you. "
Li Mochen knew that tomorrow was Halloween, so this week's match was brought forward to Thursday.
However, he didn't seem to mind as he ate the porridge and deep-fried dough sticks that Angela made for him. He replied casually, "Isn't it too late to go for the test now? If I'm no match for Cardio Rhodes, what can the company do now? "
Carl obviously thought so too. He shrugged and looked helpless.
Carl had many complaints about the company's IT department. Those guys who usually thought that they could do anything, not only couldn't find Hazel after spending a week, but they also ignored the opponent's movements this time and missed key information.
If Li Mochen suffered a defeat in this battle, the company's IT department would have to bear the primary responsibility.
"If the company is worried, you can tell them that I'm already a level-seven Magic Swordsman. Even if Cardio Rhodes reaches the level of Felton Williams, he still won't be my match. "
He was also a level-seven Titan Warrior and a level-seven Dragon Disciple Warlock.
"Wow! Are you sure? But you were only level-five a week ago. "
Carl thought that if this was true, it would be the best news he had heard all day.
Angela, who was adding porridge to Li Mochen's bowl, also looked at him in surprise. She also couldn't believe it. "Ammo, you're only a little over 16 years old now, right?"
"There's nothing strange about that. Angela, aren't you and Lina also at level-seven now?"
Li Mochen explained calmly, "I didn't go the right way before, but now I'm on the right path. That's all."
Angela thought to herself, how could this be the same? She was a level-seven Mystic, yes, but how many precious herbs had her father found for her with hundreds of billions of gold shields worth of assets? Her father had even used his connections to buy several top-notch foundation-building pills from the cultivation world in the East, which allowed her to reach this level at the age of 16.
As for Lina, that child had followed her elders into the World of Darkness since she was a child. As a result, she grew up there and experienced a very cruel childhood. After countless trials of life and death, she had constantly stimulated her Mystic potential and reached her current level.
"You should have told us earlier. How about coming to the Gate of Naessen tomorrow morning? Now that you've advanced to level-seven, we need a complete test. "
Carl beamed. As he spoke, he placed a black jewelry box in front of Li Mochen. "In return for this good news, this gift is for you."
"What's this?"
Angela took advantage of the moment when Li Mochen was engrossed in eating porridge to open the jewelry box first. Then she chuckled. "Are you going to propose to Ammo? Mr. Holden. "
"It's a ring that the company hired someone to make for Ammo."
Carl Holden explained helplessly, "It's a permanent Rapid Directional Teleportation spell that makes it immune to Dimensional Anchor spells below the Legendary level. There's also the Legendary Divine Guard spell, as well as five Advanced Teleportation spells. In short, the two magic scrolls that were given to you, Ammo, are permanently attached to the ring and greatly strengthened to ensure your safety, Ammo. In addition, it can also summon a Holy Angel to help you fight, but it can only be used twice a year, and each time lasts for one minute. "
Li Mochen had long sensed the powerful aura of this treasure on Carl. However, he still ate the last fried dough stick before picking up the ring and carefully examining it.
It couldn't be helped. Since coming to this world, he rarely had the opportunity to eat this kind of Chinese-style breakfast. He knew that he could find it in Chinatown or make it himself, but the problem was that he didn't have the time. On the other hand, Angela was talented in cooking.
“May luck be with me？ Wow, after the Lucky Bracelet, there's a Lucky Ring? "
The shape of this thing was still very beautiful. The green gem inlaid on it looked very much like an emerald ring, and the inscription meant "May luck be with me" —
"Its name is' André's Emerald Angel ', and it costs up to 37 million gold duns to make. Of course, such a ring can't be produced on a large scale, and our company is not involved in the jewelry industry at present. However, we will entrust several jewelry manufacturers to mass-produce some cheap imitations, which will not be sold to the public, but only as gifts. For example, if you spend 10,000 gold duns in our shop, you can get a André's Emerald Angel of the same style. "
Carl raised his eyebrows, his face full of pride. "What do you think of this idea? Mr. Wildenstein? "
"Is this your plan, Mr. Holden?"
Before Li Mochen had time to express his opinion, Angela couldn't help but exclaim, "I know why Mr. Paton values you so much. This is really a genius idea."
