Chapter 1000: Chapter 999: Pack of Wolves (Part 2)
“Boom!”
The explosion caused widespread chaos in the night of Villagurus.
In the food festival district, which already had a large police presence, after the explosion, police cars with flashing lights and sirens converged from all directions towards the Guzman Manor.
The Guzman Manor was on fire, the flas were fierce, and several luxury buildings were swallowed by the sea of fire in the blink of an eye. The grand garden was filled with screams, and every few steps there were high-end leather shoes and jewel-encrusted high heels left behind by fleeing celebrities.
The exits were blocked, and so even jumped into the swimming pool in panic. Looking at the shore, there were quite a few heads struggling in the water.
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
Two urgent gunshots, and the black-clad guards of the manor, who were yelling to evacuate the crowd, fell in response, leaving two more corpses on the ground.
A young black man with an afro carrying a firearm whistled as he walked out.
Another white young man followed with a frown, glanced at the bodies on the ground, and said to his laid-back companion, “Hurry up, don’t dawdle, the boss wants us to clear the area quickly, and take out all the guards! These guards are Guzman’s private soldiers, either retired military or rcenaries. If they stay, they’ll be troubleso…”
“Don’t worry, we’ve figured out the guard deploynt.”
The black young man said, bang, there was a burst of gunfire from the courtyard next door, and the screams grew sharper. The young man chuckled, “See!”
The two were about to walk into the main building side by side.
Whoosh!
Accompanied by a strange buzzing sound, so insects crawled into their heads through their ears. The faces of these two underlings were instantly filled with fear and pain. The insects crawled about inside their heads, and a lump resembling a lipoma moved around their faces and necks. In just a few seconds, there were two bizarrely deceased bodies on the ground.
On the second-floor balcony, Catherine removed her hood and looked indifferently at the two corpses on the ground.
She noticed a circle of strange petals embroidered on the right arm of the corpses.
This was the symbol of the flower of revival and freedom.
“Recovery Association?” Another low voice ca from the balcony, and ‘Dragon Tar’ Sta, known to the world with an iron face, ca out from indoors. His eyes were filled with obvious disdain and scorn, “These bugs again…”
“They are everywhere, always opposing us, the Gourt Society.” Andrea appeared with a dangerous smile.
Another area of the Guzman Manor.
“Heh!”
Ghost Father Tiqie Ji had already removed the black glove from his right hand. At his feet was a corpse with its neck twisted. As Tiqie Ji put his glove back on, he muttered, “How did the Recovery Association know about this place? Could they also know about the ‘Magic Saint Copper Artifact’ here?”
The Recovery Association, a North Arican organization second only to the ‘Gourt Society.’
And before the Gourt Society dominated this land, the chefs of the Recovery Association, who pursued freedom, could proudly build their food empires across Arica, instead of now secretly surviving like mice in the shadows under the Gourt Society’s suppression.
After thinking for a while, Tiqie Ji pulled out his phone and called soone, briefly explaining the complex situation in the Guzman Manor area.
“The ‘Magic Saint Copper Artifact’ must be brought back!”
The leader of the Gourt Society emphasized, “Since the Chinese Continent has produced a prodigy in this generation, then the plan needs to change from monitoring to seizure!”
“Besides the Magic Saint Copper Artifact, I’m exerting efforts on the ‘Greedy Wolf Pot’ in Greece. Hmph, that old thing is tight-lipped, not willing to talk for now. I will wait one more night, and tomorrow I’ll head to xico. Hopefully, by the ti I check into the hotel, you will bring the cookwares to et !”
“Yes!”
Tiqie Ji responded, and the call ended. Due to a trace of anger in the leader’s words, sweat beaded densely on his forehead.
After standing for a mont, Tiqie Ji glanced at the burning manor, then looked across the ocean to the ancient land, with a hint of amusent and gloom in his eyes.
The ergence of the Young Dragon Chef from the Chinese Continent caused a strong reaction in the global culinary world.
The ‘Gourt Society,’ in particular, was almost hit at its G-point. On the day Xia Yu created the personal food spirit “Fire Dragon Fish” recipe during the Kirin Child ceremony, the Gourt Society concurrently held an unprecedented major conference.
The content of the eting was, on one hand, discussing the impact of the Young Dragon Chef in the Chinese Realm, which, of course, concerned future influences.
Anyone with discernnt could see that this Young Dragon Chef is likely to follow the footsteps of his predecessors, heading towards the legend and the origin, that place being the realm of the Chef God, coveted by the Heavenly Kings of this era.
If another Chef God erges from the Chinese Realm, the traditionally dominant Gourt Society wouldn’t have to keep their tails between their legs?
The second point of discussion was the ‘Legendary Cookwares’!
It’s okay for a Chef God to appear, but if unstoppable, then as per the Gourt Society leader’s decision during the eting —
Do everything possible to prevent it!
They must not let the Chinese Realm see the glory of the Eight Cookwares gathering again!
Nobody knows what would happen if the Eight Cookwares gathered, but the unknown is often more terrifying. Even the leader of the Gourt Society was deeply afraid and laid out a series of redial actions.
The festival today, with giants gathered at the Guzman Manor, marks the first step of the Gourt Society’s thunderous action.
Luckily, Xia Yu and his team arrived in ti. A day later, they might have missed out on the ‘Magic Saint Copper Artifact’ forever.
…
On a bus heading towards the Guzman Manor.
Sage Bastian of the IGO Gourt Institution wore a gloomy face, while Adelaide kept urging the driver to speed up. They were late attendees, and their anxiety was palpable.
In other cities across xico.
“What?”
“Sothing happened to the Guzman Family?”
The local giants received the notification imdiately and were quite amused by the incident.
“Heh, that old Guzman, holding onto the treasure for so many years. If he’d just kept low, hiding the treasure in the basent, who would know it was in his hands? Pride cos before a fall; if you don’t seek death, you won’t get it!”
At this mont.
The death-seeking Guzman was also in the underground secret vault, his face twitching as he listened to the explosions above.
He couldn’t help but look back at the ‘Magic Saint Copper Artifact’ stored in the glass cabinet.
It was a large brass-colored pot with two ears, resembling a round-shaped cauldron, imbued with an aura of ancient Chinese culture.
The surface of the large pot was engraved with patterns like those of precious ancient bronze ware, resembling a sheep’s head, but upon closer inspection, it might be other beast faces, giving a strong sense of mystery. Even an ordinary person could tell it was a treasure.
The secret vault hallway suddenly echoed with footsteps.
Guzman’s body tensed like a vigilant viper, his eyes squinting slightly.
“Father!”
The newcor was a xican youth in a suit, hurried with a trace of panic hard to conceal in his eyes. “The helicopter is ready; we must leave imdiately!”
“Go—”
Guzman didn’t hesitate, opened the glass case, picked up the copper pot by its ears, and followed the young man, fleeing the chaotic manor in large strides.
