"Where are the Vandals?"
Hilco brought the newly created luminescent enhancement humans he had just made to the front of the general store owner leading the group.
The general store owner awkwardly replied:
"Vandals is drunk and hasn't woken up yet, otherwise he wouldn't have done it like this."
"Drunk?"
Hilco's corners twitched, and he never expected this, thinking that Fanshawe had finally come to his senses.
"What can make him drunk?"
"Hmm, well..."
The general store owner hemmed and hawed, not knowing how to explain it.
Of course not, saying his leader lost to an eleven-year-old in a drinking match.
It's fine to laugh among ourselves, but if Hilco, that rival, gets to see this and laugh at it, it would be embarrassing for the leader.
At this moment, the leading law enforcement officer on the opposite side shouted loudly:
"Hand over Sir Greason and Marcus, then disarm and submit to questioning, or today will be your last day!"
"We can surrender Sir Greason, but you must leave this place immediately, otherwise today we will all be ruined together!"
The general store owner ordered his men to put the knife on Sir Greason and Marcus' necks, showing no sign of surrender.
At this moment, he couldn't back down, or else it would cause more trouble, but he couldn't fight back either. Firstly, he should stall for time and wait for Fanshawe to sober up and take charge.
Upon learning the truth, Hilco signaled for his men to take a few steps back.
Since it was just a misunderstanding, there's no need to fight to the death. It would be better for him to watch both sides battle and reap the benefits as the observer.
"Your conditions are impossible. I'll say it again: Surrender Sir Greason and Marcus!"
The law enforcement officer on the opposite side waved his hand, and all the Pity City law enforcement guards simultaneously raised their guns.
They couldn't fire the guns, as their leader was still in the hands of the opposite side, but they still had to intimidate them. If they could scare the opposite side into letting them go, it wouldn't be too late to fire the guns.
The general store owner also tried to stall for time. He wouldn't let the people go, just as he was only threatening but not acting. The burly men were waving their weapons, but they were not actually engaging in combat.
Just as the three parties were facing each other in a stalemate, a figure stumbled and ran to the middle of them.
"Did you come to hassle my brother, you? Get out of here right now, or I'll beat you up!"
George pretended to be drunk, pointing at the Pity City law enforcement officer in front of him with an expression of impatience.
The law enforcement officer looked at George, who was young, and originally wanted to send him away. However, seeing his extraordinary demeanor, he couldn't help but ask:
"Who is your brother?"
"My brother, Vandall. We were drinking and becoming brothers just now. Although he didn't drink as much as me, he's still a brother I recognized. You dare to pick a fight with him, that's the same as picking a fight with me!"
George patted his chest and shouted loudly.
Just now, when Vandall was drunk and confused, he did indeed pull him aside to be brothers. He also took the opportunity to acknowledge Vandall as his brother.
So, it was completely in line for him to say that now.
Otherwise, for an outsider to interfere and help, it would not be properly justified.
"Fanshawe guy, actually lost to such a little guy in drinking, seems he's getting back on his feet."
Hilco over there nearly burst into laughter at George's words.
From then on, whenever he saw Fanshawe, he would bring this up to mock him and properly suppress his arrogance.
Of course, after today, it's not certain if there will be any future for Fanshawe. Whether he can survive with the law enforcement officer is another story.
If Vandall hadn't been prepared to go to war with Pity City, he wouldn't have intervened. He didn't want to be betrayed again.
On the contrary, he could take this opportunity to eliminate Fanshawe. Although the plan changed, the result would still be the same.
"George, George, don't go over there. Come back quickly!"
At this time, Yew finally caught up and saw that George had actually walked into the center of the three parties. He hurried forward to pull him back.
Unfortunately, her strength couldn't match George's. No matter how hard she pulled, he just couldn't be moved.
"George, Yew, both of you come over here!"
The general store owner also shouted towards the two as he saw the situation.
He couldn't go up to pull them. If he did, the opposite side would definitely think it was a declaration of war, and then the situation would be hard to control.
"Alright, so you are Fanshawe's people. It seems you are one of those thieves as well."
"Come on, take them down!"
The law enforcement officer heard George claiming to be Fanshawe's brother and the thief had appeared, so he immediately ordered his two subordinates to apprehend them.
If these two kids can be quickly captured, they might be used as leverage to exchange for Sir Greason and Marcus.
"Yew, brother, quickly make way. Let me deal with them myself!"
Seeing two Pity City guards approaching, Yew immediately wanted to intercept them, but was pushed away by George and also stopped the general store owner from coming to help.
"George!"
Yew, after being caught by the general store owner, cried out in alarm as the two Pity City guards reached out to grab George's arm.
Although George had shown the power of punching through a tavern wall earlier, he was still drunk and began to speak incoherently, calling her a brother and mixing up their ages.
However, the next second, everyone was stunned in unison.
"Clack! Clack!"
As the two guards' hands were about to touch George's arm, George moved lightning fast, striking their arms with each hand in a split second.
Two slaps landed solidly on the faces of the two guards.
But the force of the slaps was quite significant, knocking the two guards out and sending them flying to either side.
Although they didn't die after falling, they were unconscious.
"With such abilities, how dare you cause trouble in my brother's territory. Come on, let's continue!"
George arrogantly raised one hand, flicking his fingers at the law enforcement officer in a provocative manner.
The law enforcement officer immediately turned red with anger, thankfully he was wearing a gas mask.
"Send four men, take him down!"
Under the current hostile situation, the Pity City guards, who are supposed to be in charge, are actually being challenged by a small boy from the black alley. This is something even aunts can't bear.
If this gets to the Members of the Assembly, he won't be able to keep his job as a law enforcement officer.
"Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!"
Four slaps, the four guards who had just come forward were all sent flying, following the same fate as the first two.
On the other side, Yew and the burly men who had wanted to come over and help stopped in their tracks and retreated back, raising their weapons and shouting in unison.
"Hahaha, George is awesome!"
"George, you're doing great!"
"Let's show them the might of our black alley!"
"George, from now on, besides Fanshawe, I will only respect you, my brother leopard!"
The deputy law enforcement officer was so angry he seemed about to explode. He never expected that the child before him had such strength, able to defeat four adult guards.
But he couldn't let the guards shoot the child. That would be even more of a face-saving failure.
"I want to fight ten!"
After felling four guards, George boldly extended ten fingers and continued to taunt the law enforcement officer.
