Looking at the groups of elites barging into the banquet hall one
after another, all the guests at the scene were dumbfounded.
None of them expected Dustin to have such great connections. All he
did was make a call, and hundreds of people came over to assist him. Not
only were there underground organizations and official armed forces, but
there was also help from a business tycoon. On top of that, even the
mayor of Swinton was here to back him up in person.
In other words, as long as Dustin said the word, all the forces in
Swinton could be under his command.
That was a terrifying connection he had.
No wonder he dared to be insolent in front of the Langford family. He
had come prepared.
Now the Langfords were not fighting against Dustin alone, but the
whole of Swinton. "Who is he exactly? How come he can have influence over
so many forces?"
The guests exchanged glances with one another, shocked at the turn of
events.
At that moment, the arrogant Langford family finally sensed that the
current situation wasn't favoring them. Even though these forces wouldn't
be able to weaken their foothold, the former could still bring trouble to
the latter. After all, the Langfords' power was in Stonia. Requesting
immediate help was simply impossible.
"It looks like I have underestimated you." After being stunned for a
moment, Kingston quickly regained his composure and said, "But if you
think that you can win against us with their help, then you're wrong.
The Langford family had been an influential family in Stonia for
generations. Whether it was power or connections, they were way stronger
than the ones in Swinton.
"Rhys! Indeed, you have more people with you. But what can you do
about it?" Luis sneered, "They are just a bunch of shrimp."
In his eyes, Swinton's powers were akin to ants. He could even easily
get rid of them if he wanted. This was how strong an affluent family from
Stonia was.
"If they can't, what about me?" Right then, a loud and clear voice
pierced the air.
A well-dressed, handsome man walked dauntlessly into the banquet hall
with a few female officers. He carried such an overwhelming aura with him
that everyone lowered their heads subconsciously the moment they saw him.
"Adam Spanner-the God of War?" Kingston's eyes widened in fear.
It had never occurred to him that the chief commander of the West
Army, who was in charge of 300 thousand soldiers, would appear here.
"What's wrong, Uncle Kingston? Do you know him?" Luis quickly noticed
that something wasn't right.
That is Adam Spanner!" Kingston exclaimed
Hearing that, Luis was stunned and could no longer maintain his
composure. "What? He is…
Adam?"
As the heir of the wealthiest family in Stonia, Adam was not only a
wunderkind but also a living legend. His outstanding battle achievements
at a young age had earned him the title of "God of War " and the command
of hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
In the whole of Stonia, there was barely anyone of his age who could
be on par with him.
"That's quite arrogant of you. How dare you bully my friend!" As Adam
strode in, the crowd automatically stepped aside to make way for him.
"Friend? Could it be… him?" Kingston's gaze shifted to Dustin in
shock.
"How could someone from this insignificant place know Adam?" Kingston
thought.
"Mr. Kingston, you said that these people weren't able to drive the
Langfords away. But what about with my help?" Adam stared piercingly at
him, his eyes filled with provocation.
"M-Mr. Spanner, what brings you here?"
