Chapter 276: Paying a Visit to Collect a Debt
“Fire Asura, what are you doing?”
Robert, who was half-dragon half-lizard, could not help but ask in surprise when he saw Vincent walk into the room.
If it were any other day, if someone dared to kick open Robert’s door, he would have already arranged for his men to chop them into pieces and throw them into the sewer of the capital of Ultimate Evil.
However, when Robert saw the person in front of him, he did not dare to act rashly, because the other party was the Fire Asura who kills without batting an eye!
In just a short month’s time, he had killed his way out of the Arena of Life and Death. He was truly a ruthless character!
In comparison to his deep background, Robert knew that he was definitely not a match for the Fire Asura. After all, the person who stood behind the Fire Asura and supported him with all his might was the leader of the capital of Ultimate Evil!
Vincent walked forward and glanced around. The two Subdragon maids hurriedly ran out of the room, leaving only Robert alone.
Vincent sat on the coffee table in front of Robert and asked with a sneer, “You’re Robert?”
Robert answered with a doubtful look, “Yes, that’s me!”
The smile on Vincent’s lips grew wider as he said in a deep voice, “I didn’t expect it! The first time I sold materials, I was cheated by you!”
After hearing that, Robert could not help but look nervous. At the same time, his brain was working rapidly. He was thinking about the materials that Vincent was talking about. Which business was it?
Robert did business with many creatures. Recently, he had done a few in a row. At this time, it was really difficult for him to think of which business was related to Vincent.
Vincent saw the blank look on the other party’s face. Apparently, he still did not understand which business he was talking about. He then said, “You are really bold! A whole batch of materials worth 70 million dark crystals was actually swallowed by you in one gulp. How do you think I should deal with you?”
After hearing this, Robert was stunned. He immediately recalled that not long ago, the Ultimate Evil Lord’s daughter, Irene, had once sold him a batch of materials that was worth 70 million dark crystals. Those materials were all high-grade materials that were currently in short supply on the market. In addition, Robert knew that the evil lord’s adopted daughter did not have much strength. If she wanted to obtain these materials, she must have used some unknown means. Hence, he had the idea that it was obtained illegally.
After thinking about it, Robert could not help but feel a wave of regret.
Irene had long been betrothed to the Fire Asura by the Ultimate Evil Lord. This was something that the entire capital knew about. How could Irene have the ability to obtain so many precious materials? It must have been the Fire Asura who was in the Arena of Life and Death at that time. As he could not leave, she helped him sell his materials instead.
As the Fire Asura had obtained his freedom, he came over to settle the score with him!
“Fire Asura, there might be some misunderstanding. When I received that batch of materials, I did not have enough funds on hand. I wanted to change hands to dispose of the materials and then make up for the arrears of funds. Miss Irene must have misunderstood me. I will give you the money immediately. How about it?”
Robert quickly explained to Vincent. He was afraid that the guy in front of him would not listen to his explanation and directly attack him.
Although Robert had the strength of a level 35 creature and had a slight advantage in terms of level against Vincent, who had just advanced to level 30, he did not dare to fight Vincent. After all, Fire Asura had always killed opponents five levels higher in the Arena of Life and Death.
Vincent seemed to be moved by Robert’s words. A relaxed smile appeared on his face as he played with a wine glass beside him. He said, “In that case, I’ve still wronged you! After all, you still have the power of the Dragon Race behind you. If I really pursue you, it would be a troublesome matter for me. Then, let’s talk about business properly!”
After hearing this, Robert immediately heaved a sigh of relief. He assumed that Vincent was still afraid of the Dragon Race’s strength. For a moment, he became fearless, and the greed in his heart rose again. He smiled and said, “In that case, let’s have a heart-to-heart talk! At that time, the value of the batch of materials was 70 million dark crystals, but I was a little anxious so I only sold it for 50 million dark crystals. We are friends. I won’t deduct the commission in the middle. 50 million dark crystals will be transferred to your account!”
Vincent’s hand that was playing with the wine glass suddenly stopped. The smile on his face instantly froze as he looked at the greedy Robert. He sneered and said, “I think you still don’t understand what I mean. I’m not here to ask you for money for the materials. I want you to talk about how to compensate me!”
“Compensate?” asked Robert with a blank face.
Vincent’s eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice, “You hacked my materials, made me lose my reputation, and caused losses during this period of time. These are the parts that you should compensate for! Do you think that 70 million dark crystals are enough for me to come to you personally? What you should compensate me with is all of your wealth!”
After hearing this, Robert finally reacted. Vincent was going to learn from him to do the same thing. He then pretended to be tough and said, “Don’t think that I’m easy to bully just because my level is low! The power behind me is not weaker than you at all. If you want me to compensate you for the materials at the usual price, that’s fine. But if you’re planning to extort me, I advise you to be careful. Otherwise, you’ll get burned!”
“Get burned? I’m not afraid of fire the most!”
Vincent snorted coldly and pushed his hand that was holding the wine cup forward. He stuffed the wine cup into Robert’s mouth.
Due to Vincent’s immense strength, the moment the wine cup entered Robert’s mouth, it exploded into countless tiny glass shards.
“You dare…”
Robert’s mouth was covered in blood as he looked at Vincent in shock. Before he could say what he wanted to say, the person in front of him had already turned into a small sun.
The Subdragon Race only inherited part of the Dragon Race’s bloodline and possessed the appearance of the Dragon Race. The strength of the Subdragon Race was far inferior to that of the Dragon Race. They were also unable to resist Vincent’s terrifying flames.
In an instant, Robert’s entire body was burning with raging flames.
“Help!”
Robert howled as he turned around and broke through the wall. He relied on his tyrannical physical strength and began to rampage through the Paradise of Desire. On one hand, he wanted to extinguish the flames on his body, and on the other hand, he wanted to avoid Vincent’s pursuit.
However, Vincent sat on the spot without moving. The flames on Robert’s body did not show any signs of extinguishing.
Vincent, who controlled the entire handle of the flames, was the true master of the flames. Only the flames he wanted to extinguish could be extinguished. Without his permission, even if Robert dived into the water, the flames on his body would still burn his body, until he died completely!
However, the physical body of a Subdragon was still very tough. Robert ran out of the Paradise of Desire with the flames on his body. When he turned around and saw that Vincent did not chase after him, he hurriedly ran back to his home.
There were countless treasures and many life-saving methods that he had collected in his home. Robert quickly returned home to think of a way to extinguish the flames on his body!
Just as Robert was about to run into the gates of his residence, he suddenly felt a weight on his back. Vincent’s figure slowly emerged from the flames that rode on his neck. He sneered and said, “You want to run? You’re not worthy!”
