Chapter 16
The dark figure was none other than Noir. It had only been half a minute since his emergence to the men passing out cold.
“Noir, run checks on this Dragon Gang.”
“Yes, sir.”
Noir blended into the shadows and disappeared swiftly.
Andrius darted a glance at the unconscious men on the ground before he headed out of the village.
As soon as he stepped out of the alleyway, he heard sirens. Three police cruisers came in and stopped in the center of the urban village.
A female officer came out of one of the police cruisers. She had a small face but a valiant expression. Her ponytail brought out her clean and strict demeanor. However, she wore a frosty look all the time.
“Freeze!”
The female officer pulled and pointed her gun at Andrius. She then said to her colleagues, “Go in and have a look.”
The other officers dashed into the alleyway and then came back with heavy expressions.
“Madam, there are a few unconscious and injured men inside.”
“Call an ambulance.”
“The rest, take the suspect down!”
The female officer gave her orders in a swift manner.
Andrius was helpless as the other officers approached him. He was facing the local police officers, not enemies who invaded the country. There was no way he could resolve the matter with the brutal methods he used on his enemies.
He got into the police cruiser as required.
Back at White Swan Estate, Marcus came back to his table and noticed Andrius‘ absence. Right when he was about to call the waiter nearby to ask where Andrius went, someone called him from behind.
“Mayor Freely! Hold on!”
Marcus turned around and saw the Crestfalls.
Before this, the Crestfalls had not been worthy of his time at all. Things were different now.
For the sake of Andrius, he put on a smile and replied, “Master Crestfall, is there anything I can do for you?”
“Mayor Freely. We want to thank you for acknowledging our efforts. We will never let you down!
We will put in 120% effort in the Valiant Institute project.”
Master Crestfall even bowed to the mayor, and Harry and Luna followed suit.
Marcus generously said, “The Crestfalls have a good reputation in Sumeria. I believe you and your family are the best to take over the project.”
“Thank you for your trust, Mayor Freely.”
The Crestfalls were flattered. They bowed again out of gratitude. With the Valiant Institute project in hand, the Crestfall would form a direct link with the local government. Henceforth, the Stormbrews would no longer dare to target them in the open.
From a wide perspective, the Crestfalls could use this project to strengthen their roots here in Sumeria.
Therefore, of course, Master Crestfall thanked Marcus for the opportunity.
“You’re welcome. Is there anything else?” Marcus said with a wave of his hand.
Luna respectfully asked, “Mayor Freely, I have a question that I would like you to enlighten me…”
“Go straight ahead.”
With Marcus‘ permission, Luna took a deep breath and asked, “Mayor Freely, you said Andrius is your benefactor. I wonder who he is to you.”
“Andrius?” Marcus responded with honor and respect when Andrius‘ name was mentioned.
Who was Andrius Moonshade?
He was the Wolf King that commanded a million Lycantroops!
It was obvious that the Crestfalls were not in the know.
Marcus wondered how they would react if they found out he was the prestigious Wolf King.
