Chapter 303 - I Said So (1/2)

Roland laughed when he heard that.

Hurt the players! From a physical point of view, it was impossible. After all, players weren’t afraid of death.

“Have you forgotten the Golden Sons are immortal?” Roland gestured for them to leave. “I told you, I won’t interfere with this matter, and neither will the Gray Sand Gang.”

Torrey shook his head in disappointment. “Sir, you will disappoint a lot of people by doing this. Is it possible that in your eyes, the organization under you is only meant to be abandoned during critical moments?”

The crowd was wagging their tongues. Roland’s heartlessness seemed somewhat unbelievable to them.

If one were to look at them with just the eyes, these people’s expressions were all well feigned; some looked calm on the surface but had disdain in their eyes, and some frowned with annoyance.

It was as if Roland’s lack of concern for the gang was something contemptible.

Roland didn’t believe these n.o.bles, and big merchants would be so n.o.ble as well.

Besides, now that Roland’s mental power was quite strong, he could clearly distinguish that these people’s mental fluctuations weren’t significant, meaning that their feelings didn’t match their apparent expressions.

To put it simply, they were acting.

Playing Roland.

Roland said indifferently, “It’s none of your business what I do, right? Or do you bigwigs who usually bully commoners with great vigor suddenly want to stand up for the Gray Sand Gang? No matter, I’ll accept it.”

Everyone was in awe. No one spoke.

Torrey continued, “Sir, if you are willing to protect us, we’re willing to serve up a good deal of money. How about three hundred gold coins to start with, and then every month, all of us will raise you another fifty gold coins for ten years in a row. How about it?”

This was definitely an exaggerated figure. Even if it was a great n.o.ble family, they would have to seriously consider it when they heard these numbers.

However, Roland still gestured for them to leave.

He doesn’t even want this much money?

This group of people sighed at Roland’s sneering look and then left all at once.

After they left, Adonara came out of the inner room and said unhappily, “These people have actually joined forces against us. Is it because we’re easy to talk to?”

“I don’t think so.” Roland went to the window and watched the group of people leave the Magic Tower’s square. “These people seem to have been united by someone.”

Andonara was stunned for a moment. “Torrey led them?”

“Torrey is not a man with much power.” Roland shook his head. “It is reasonable to say that if he has enough trouble dealing with the threat from Silver Wings, it’s impossible for him to go against me… unless…”

Two magic spiders appeared at Roland’s side, then crawled down along the window at a great speed, and finally scuttled underneath the carriage.

Roland smiled as he watched Torrey’s carriage leave, and turned back to his study.

Torrey returned to his manor and went to his own study.

Soon the sun was setting. Two men in black cloaks entered Torrey’s manor from the back, then went through the backdoor to the mansion, and finally, led by the butler, they arrived in Torrey’s study.

The two visitors pulled off their black hoods and then sat unceremoniously across from Torrey.

“What’s the situation?”
