Chapter 333

At this moment, the sound emanating from the Northguard Army made Gavin and his companions raise their eyebrows, a hint of puzzlement in their eyes.

In their hearts, they silently speculated, 'What is happening with the Northguard Army?

'They are surrounding us, yet requesting for us to speak peacefully? And, even forbidding us to attack?

'If it were an ordinary person who was witnessing this scene, wouldn't they have already taken action?"

Then, the previous voice echoed once again from the megaphone, "Mr. Gavin, we mean no harm." Upon hearing this, Gavin could not help but find the situation somewhat

amusing.

And he muttered in his heart, 'They are surrounding us, but they said they had no ill intentions?

'Mobilizing so many Northguard Army to halt my vehicle, all without malice? 'What an 'innocent' gesture!' However, the voice from the loudspeaker persisted, "Mr. Gavin, I know you're formidable.

"We, with so many people, could never be your opponents.

"Surrounding you was not our intention. It is the King of Northguard who compelled us to do so!

"We do not want to encircle you, but the King of Northguard's orders are absolute, and we had to follow the orders.

"Rest assured, Mr. Gavin, we would not make a move on you. Please, Mr. Gavin, quietly await the arrival of the King!"

"Alright," Gavin sighed inwardly.

Gavin and his companions revealed a touch of helplessness in their eyes as they collectively thought, "Is the King of Northguard using this group of Northguard Army for his benefit again?/ "But this King of Northguard must be quite audacious to come out and obstruct

us.'

Of course, the group understood the dilemma faced by these warriors, so there was no intention to engage and eliminate them directly.

Harry stepped forward, looking at Gavin, and whispered, "Dark Lord, should we..." Gavin glanced at the surrounding Northguard Army. If they chose to fight, it would be effortless to clear a smooth path for them to pass.

However, he wanted to see what the King of Northguard was really up to.

So, he turned and glanced at Harry. Harry immediately understood Gavin's intention, nodded, and retreated to stand behind Gavin.

Gavin stood quietly in place, awaiting the arrival of the King of Northguard. In no time, a person cautiously ran out from the Northguard Army. He was carrying a chair as he nervously approached Gavin. Respectfully, he said, "Mr. Gavin, are you feeling tired? Please have a seat and rest for a while."

After placing the chair down, he quickly fled.

At this moment, Harry and Rose observed Gavin, as did many members of the Frostpeak Dark Warriors Team D and Rosebud's group. They all wore expressions of disbelief, thinking, 'Is the Dark Lord now so prestigious outside?

'Why is the Northguard Army showing such deference to the Dark Lord?'

Honestly, Gavin himself found it somewhat unexpected, but the situation continued.

Before long, another person came out, holding a small table filled with tea, coffee, water, and pastries, similar to before, and placing it in front of Gavin.

"Mr. Gavin, after a long journey, feel free to eat and drink to relieve your fatigue," the Northguard Army personnel said respectfully.

This back-and-forth continued, with more and more items being brought out. Not only did Gavin enjoy this treatment, but his subordinates also experienced the same, with various food and drinks available for both Gavin and his subordinates.

Gavin and his companions wore peculiar expressions, with a faintly amused look on their faces.

Rose looked at Harry, then at the scene before them, and said, "Can someone explain why it turned out like this?

"Have we ever encountered such a thing before?

"Being ambushed halfway through our journey, surrounded by a large group. But it feels like we have been invited to a small gathering.

"This is too unbelievable."

Listening to Rose, Harry nodded, observing the Northguard Army surrounding them and their people who were encircled, all seemingly in a harmonious atmosphere.

He pondered, 'Doesn't this look more like team-building than an actual siege?' Gavin watched his subordinates and the Northguard Army personnel around the table, sipping coffee and eating pastries, creating an indescribable sense of peculiarity.

He thought, 'Clearly, the morale of the King of Northguard's subordinates, the

Northguard Army, has waned!

'Otherwise, how could they, on their own, intercept us midway just to offer us good food and drinks?

'If the King of Northguard knew his subordinates surrounded me like this, he would probably be furious.'

Just then, a person from the Northguard Army, who was observing Gavin and others finishing their meal, approached cautiously and asked, "Mr. Gavin, would you like some fine wine and dishes?" Harry and Rose exchanged glances, staring in astonishment at the Northguard Army warrior before them, unsure of what to say.

Gavin looked at his subordinates, realizing everyone was hungry.

Since the Northguard Army offered hospitality, there was no reason to refuse.

Of course, Harry and Rose immediately used silver chopsticks to inspect the dishes on the table, confirming there was no poison. This made the situation even more bewildering.

If the King of Northguard could not control his own Northguard Army, it indicated that this lord was not competent enough.

Three rounds of wine and five rounds of dishes were served.

Suddenly, the booming voice of the King of Northguard echoed loudly, "Gavin Clifford, do not attempt to escape!"

Upon hearing this furious shout, a group of Northguard Army members rushed out, swiftly clearing away the table and chair in front of Gavin while the rest pretended nothing had happened.

The King of Northguard, intrigued by the hurried movements, approached the nearest Northguard Army and inquired, "What happened to those people?

"Why does it seem like they are in a hurry?

"What were they carrying just now?"

Of course, the Northguard Army members stared at each other, offering no response to the King of Northguard.

They certainly could not say that they had set up a table for Gavin and were waiting for the arrival of the esteemed King of Northguard, could they?

That would be suicidal.

Seeing no response, the King of Northguard did not intend to delve deeper, as it was not his purpose for being there. He turned directly to Gavin and angrily exclaimed, "Gavin Clifford, killing people and trying to escape, where is the justice in that?"

Gavin looked at the individuals who had just removed the table and chairs.

Of course, he knew it was the arrival of the King of Northguard. To preserve their

lives, he needed to play along.

So, Gavin naturally would not betray the Northguard Army members. After all, they had assisted Gavin and his people.

Gavin looked at the King of Northguard and calmly said, "What is this?

"Are you seeking revenge for your men now?

"Why did you wait?

"Why not seek revenge sooner?"

Hearing Gavin's voice, the King of Northguard recalled the leaders and protectors he had lost in front of his Northguard Imperial Residence.

The awkward scene where Gavin had him by the throat in front of so many Northguard Army soldiers also came to his mind, further fueling his anger. Burning with rage inside, he dared not bring up that incident; it was too embarrassing.

Instead, he bellowed, "Do you know who the Cruto person you killed in the Halls Palace is?"

Upon hearing the King of Northguard's words, Gavin did not pay much attention. He looked at the King of Northguard and responded calmly, "I do not care who he is.

"Those who deserve to die must die.

"If someone wants revenge for him, I, Gavin Clifford, am ready to face it."
