Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 87: Duel (for collection)

Views:

Willick followed Allen down from the taxi, and when he looked at the huge "Twilight" sign in front of him, the young man couldn't help feeling awkward. He was wearing a well-fitting suit that Allen bought for him, his half-length hair was also trimmed, and Willick even put on a tie. He was originally tall and strong, but he looked even more dignified in this outfit. But he was used to living in the city, such a serious attire made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Just thinking about the person he will deal with tonight, Willick will bear it no matter how uncomfortable it is.

He couldn't forget Chia's eyes that lost their luster, and she couldn't forget the back of her curled up in a corner and weeping. The flames of hatred were blazing, and Willick was like a wild wolf about to devour people, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Allen held a straight knife to destroy the door to the twilight and walked in, so tired that the two waiters who greeted the guests followed him nervously, for fear that Allen was here to make trouble.

He did come to make trouble tonight, but not yet, so he casually threw two banknotes to one of the waiters: "Give us a booth."

The waiter said with a smile: "The young master is very unfamiliar, is this the first time you come to Twilight? We have rules here, not just anyone can take the booth..."

Before he could finish speaking, Allen had turned up his palm, wearing Bethkind's silver ring on it. The waiter immediately changed his words: "So it's Beth Kede's young master, please follow me."

Twilight, as a high-end entertainment venue in Babylon, knows the coats of arms of the major families very well, and uses this to distinguish their identities, so that they will not offend people without knowing it. The silver ring on Allen's hand is a status symbol, even if he is not a regular customer of the bar, he will be treated as a guest of honor. Although Twilight really respected the silver ring and the family represented by the ring, not Allen himself.

In any case, he and Willick got an elegant deck. Allen ordered some drinks casually, and waited for the wine to be served. Allen gave the waiter a few small bills and said: "Our good friend, Master Vincent, will come over later, please take him to the adjacent booth. I want to give him a surprise, you know, A little joke between friends."

After the waiter left, only he and Willick were left in the booth.

Willie tugged on his tie, which was strangling him almost out of breath: "Are you sure Vincent will come tonight?"

"Of course, Josh will come too. Don't worry."

"Where did you hear the news?"

"A...reliable friend." Alan couldn't help rubbing his brows when thinking of Adele, who had exploited a little gadget of his own and smiled like a little fox as a child.

Now that Allen said so, Willick did not continue to ask. Before making them wait long, Vincent and Josh came, followed by a group of noble children. Through the gap in the gauze curtain used as a partition, Allen just saw Vincent's smiling face. He sat back to his original position calmly, quietly drinking the cocktail specially provided by Twilight.

Vincent and his party were taken to a booth next to Allen's. Among the crowd, Josh seemed the most excited. There are always visible and invisible circles among nobles, and tonight, Josh will walk into Vincent's circle. He knew very well that relying on his own strength alone was far from enough to bring down his older brothers in the family. But with Vincent and his friends acting as support, he was a little closer to the goal.

Everyone sat down and the wine was served.

Vincent patted Josh on the shoulder and said, "Come on, let me introduce you. This is Josh from the Weems family. Josh is a flirtatious guy. He just fucked a hot woman last night. Let's get together in the future Play, come, we are good friends after drinking this glass of wine."

Drink three rounds.

A teenager laughed and said, "Vincent, I didn't hear that you are dealing with that kid named Allen recently. How is it going?"

Vincent coughed dryly, remembering that he had failed to get a job a few days ago, and said with some embarrassment: "Hurry up."

Suddenly, a calm voice floated from the next seat: "Vincent, Josh, good evening."

The other teenagers were at a loss, but both Vincent Josh and Josh were equally pale. Especially Josh, it was more like seeing a ghost. The voice said again: "Josh, you took advantage of my trust and colluded with Vincent to lure me to the Old Oak Bar. Then you use outsiders to kill me, and then you can treat it as an accident in the bar fight and push it away. I I have to say, you have arranged this game beautifully."

Hearing these words, the boy next to him looked at Vincent and Josh with something wrong. After all, there is an invisible bottom line among nobles, and obviously, if Wen Sen and the others really did this, they would have already crossed the bottom line.

Vincent is okay, but Josh can't sit still anymore. He stood up and said, "Alan, don't talk nonsense, that night was just an accident. I was beaten up!"

"That's because Master Wensen took care of you in advance, otherwise, you would not be as simple as being punched." Another voice also rang out: "Didn't Master Wensen want to find me afterwards? Now, I am here! "

Vincent finally exclaimed: "Willik?"

"That's right, Master Wensen's money is really not that easy to get. After I gave the money here, I turned around and found someone to deal with me. If I didn't run fast, I'm afraid I can only curse you in hell now?" Wei Rick said coldly.

Hearing this, the other teenagers probably already knew a general idea. Their gazes at Vincent became complicated, and some even shook their heads.

In fact, that bottom line is not necessarily sacrosanct. But if you cross the line, then you have to do a good job and never leave any hands behind. Like Wen Sen is doing now, he has crossed the bottom line, but still let the other party live a good life. Even if Wen Sen's background is exposed in front of other people, then no matter what, the evaluation of Wen Sen within the family will only be lowered, not raised.

At this time, Allen added another strong medicine: "Master Josh, while you are happily sitting here drinking and chatting, I think the video of Willick's confession has been delivered to your family. Your brothers , would probably be happy to make a big fuss about it. If I were you, go home now and maybe salvage something before that video plays a role."

Josh's face turned ashes immediately, once this matter broke out, he would be hit hard. After all, he not only ignored the bottom line, but also offended the characters in Bethkind. Under such circumstances, it is natural not to expect the family to have a good opinion of him. Thinking of his bleak future, Josh lost his mind, and rushed to the next seat with a low growl.

Vincent's face was ugly, Josh moved too fast, and he didn't even have time to react if he wanted to stop it. And Josh's move confirmed Allen's rhetoric. If it wasn't because of a guilty conscience, why would the reaction be so intense

A series of muffled sounds immediately sounded from the neighbor next door.

There was a loud sound, which was mixed with the sound of blunt objects hitting and fists and flesh, which made all the teenagers on Wensen's side tremble with fear. Then there was a sound of cracking brocade, but the gauze curtain of the partition broke. Josh wrapped in it flew out of the booth and rolled to the corridor, scaring several passing girls to scream.

In the twilight bar, people finally noticed the commotion here.

Allen walked out of the deck, flashed his silver ring and said loudly: "This is Bethkind's internal affairs, please do not interfere. As for the losses caused, I will be responsible for all."

Hearing what he said, the bar manager who wanted to step forward to intervene could only back away with a wry smile. Firstly, Allen promised to compensate, and secondly, it was Bethkind's internal disputes, so it was naturally not Twilight's turn to intervene.

Josh really fell into a coma this time. He was so excited that he had forgotten all about his combat skills and engravings. The card of Allen was knocked by Allen with the scabbard, and more of them were stunned by Wilik for a while. From Chia's mouth, Willick knew that Vincent was the mastermind, and Josh was the one who did violence to Chia. At the moment, the iron fist was bombarding, if Alan hadn't given Josh a chance to kick Josh out of the booth, he might have killed Willick.

That's not what Allen likes to see, after all, this is a public place. If Willick killed Josh openly, he couldn't keep it even if he wanted to.

Willick was panting heavily, feeling that he was still at the end of his mind. Allen held the scabbard sideways to prevent him from leaving his seat to pursue.

"Calm down." Allen drank softly.

Willick took a deep breath and nodded.

Allen looked at his neighbor: "Vincent, didn't you always want to deal with me? Now I will give you a chance, how about having a duel with me here? Of course, if you are afraid, give it to me immediately Get out, and don't appear in my sight in the future. Otherwise, just be straightforward and settle our matter tonight!"

Vincent felt in a dilemma.

Allen's words are as domineering and fierce as his knife, if you don't make a move, you will die, and if you make a move, you will hit the vital point directly. First of all, Vincent's cross-border behavior was exposed, and Allen had already occupied a word of reason. Now he is being challenged to the end of the match, and it is not enough to ask Vincent to agree, let alone to refuse.

The important thing is that now Allen invites the fight on the spot. With so many eyes watching, if Wen Sen refuses, he will not even think about raising his head in the family in the future. Finally, Wen Sen angrily poured a large glass of beer into his stomach, dropped the glass and stood up: "You are courting death!"

The public area of the bar was cleared out, and many tables and chairs were moved from their original places. In addition, some guests had to move out of their seats, and the vacated space was naturally used by Allen for a duel. This caused inconvenience to some guests, but knowing that the two sides in the duel were from Bethkind, the guests not only did not object, but looked forward to it.

Allen stood in the field with a knife in his arms, with a calm posture. Although he is young, he has already left a deep impression on the onlookers. On the other hand, Wen Sen's red eyes and manic appearance made people shake their heads.

The eyes of the people in the bar were all on Alan and the two of them, so when Kodov walked into the bar with the two girls, even the waiter forgot to say hello. He looked at the crowd in the public area suspiciously and muttered, "What's going on?"

Then he left the two girls behind and squeezed in front of the crowd. When seeing Allen and Vincent confronting each other, Kodov's expression changed first, and then he smiled wryly: "You idiot Vincent, why did you have a duel with Allen?"
