Chapter 1284: Chapter 54: Just Letting You Know in Case You Didn’t Know
About a hundred years ago, during what the West called the Victorian Golden Age, the ships and cannons of European colonizers spanned the five continents and four oceans. Both vampires and werewolves, ancient enemies, followed the tide of the tis, leaving Europe for various parts of the world.
The two sides tacitly chose different directions.
The vampire families migrated to Asia, while most of the werewolf clans headed for Arica.
Initially, most werewolf clans gathered in the New England region on the East Coast, building cities brick by brick, but were then deceived by demons. Despite their enormous labor efforts, they did not gain corresponding wealth or status, prompting them to continue migrating westward.
By around 1350, nearly sixty percent of the werewolf clans had arrived on the West Coast, reaching a strategic partnership with the Four Seas Comrce Guild, which occupied California.
Among them, major clans like Black Mane, Frost Mane, Gray Fang, and Split Tooth were fully under the banner of the Four Seas Comrce Guild, becoming important security forces in the guild’s shipping logistics and financial industries.
On one hand, the two sides were indeed a good match; werewolves are usually straightforward and gullible, hating deception. The Overseas Chinese Comrce Guild has always valued trust, and both sides have similar ancestral beliefs, which make oaths made in the na of ancestors far more effective than those demon contracts in black and white.
On the other hand, it was due to the inscrutable sense of superiority and racial discrimination of the Yankees.
Even though everyone was trying to make a living on the New Continent, those Yankees did not treat others as human beings.
Of course, it’s not just the Yankees; such discrimination and estrangent were widespread among various immigrant ethnic groups on the West Coast. Without the unification by the Four Seas Comrce Guild, the Chinese people would be quite exclusive too.
No matter how, after years of cooperation, these werewolf clans have fully integrated into the Four Seas Comrce Guild, learning Chinese, eating Chinese food, and even cultivating martial arts. Except for their appearance, they are almost indistinguishable from true Chinese people.
When the guild headquarters moved to Tiann to establish the Outer Four Halls, Karak Black Mane decisively rejected the invitation from several guild elders, strictly forbidding his clansn from joining in the bustle.
The principle of striking out the prominent bird was perhaps not understood by past werewolf clan leaders, but he now rembered it clearly.
Why not guard the bank as security? Plenty of money, little work, close to ho, enjoying life.
It’s good for young people to have ambitions, but now is not the ti to stand out.
The Four Seas Comrce Guild has not yet secured its position in Tiann; when it truly establishes itself, it will eventually seek opportunities for its true people to take the lead.
You say we are werewolves? Does being a werewolf matter? Loyalty is what matters most.
We are now respectable people and cannot run about fighting like those rogues and loafers.
And what are those rogues and loafers? They are the chamber pots that can be disposed of after use.
Can a massive guild like the Four Seas Comrce Guild rely on those street rogues and loafers to maintain its standing?
No, real military support is needed.
And what is real military force? Undoubtedly, it’s the army!
Karak’s two sons have accumulated years of mariti experience with the guild’s fleet, and when the ti is right, such capable young n can simply change clothes and beco real navy n.
Karak Black Mane had a very optimistic vision for his clan’s future developnt.
All thanks to his early years studying in the guild’s school, though his grades weren’t too impressive, they were much better than those at the Church schools using the Bible as textbooks.
He learned much ancient wisdom from the East.
…
Slowly exhaling a breath of impure air, Karak struggled down from the vault door.
The light slap from that young man nearly turned him into a pancake.
Thirty full years of inner strength cultivation, yet he couldn’t withstand a single blow from this terrifying young one!
At least seventy or eighty bones in his body were broken. For a werewolf, such injuries were not considered fatal, but the sheer overpowering strength left Karak feeling utterly unable to resist.
He glanced at the empty vault, knowing that today’s matter had blown up.
Of course, the outco was not entirely unexpected for him.
The new governnt of Ming Country was founded on martial strength, with President Xu Ziwei conquering the east and the west, invincible in battle. For such a super warlord used to using the gun barrel to rule, what good would appeasent do for you?
But there’s no choice. Good advice is hard to accept for the stubborn, and so people just don’t believe in this evil.
Many within the guild were waiting to see these peoples’ jokes.
Karak was the sa.
However, while enjoying the spectacle, such a big issue requires action…
Just as Karak was about to get up to report to the higher-ups, he suddenly thought, why bother?
Making this call wouldn’t likely benefit him. With the opposing side being so powerful and impossible to resolve, would the leaders deflect bla back onto him later?
Who instructed you to make this call? You have the energy to make a call, why didn’t you stop those robbers? Did you prearrange with them?
Why risk your life for a few hundred bucks a month?
Karak quickly convinced himself, gritting his teeth and twisting his neck with a crack, causing his neck to break as he fell into unconsciousness.
…
In the car, Cheng Xuefei put away her dressing mirror, lightly smacked her lipstick-covered lips, and turned to Wang Yunxiao: “The Bank won’t notice anything unusual for a while. Where do you plan to start with Tianhua Company?”
