CHAPTER 564 THE WYVERNS ALTERNATE

Karl's bland words echoed throughout the room, instantly making the place deadly silent.

Caroline's body even trembled.

For she felt an icy murderous aura, which also burst forth instantly, sending chills throughout her body.

Lydia, Aurora even looked at Karl with incredulous eyes.

In fact, Lydia noticed something strange very early on.

The people sent by various families were the younger generation like Ariella, Cindy and Hayden.

And the Henderson family was led by Karl, the head of the Henderson family.

This inevitably raised suspicions.

Was Karl, the head of the Henderson family, going to compete with juniors like Ariella and Olly?

But now they knew that Karl himself had come to Hopkins, not at all for the Northernland Conference.

The Northernland Conference was just a springboard to the main objective, which was to kill Leo.

So, he took half of the Dark-dragon Guards with him.

Leo was also accompanied by his very powerful female bodyguard, Nadine.

With this half of the Dark-dragon Guards, Nadine's strength could be largely ignored.

All that remained was for Karl to take a shot at Leo.

"Don't you dare hurt him!"

Lydia was furious to learn the truth, her neck was covered with veins, but her eyes were both angry and

frightened.

Aurora's eyes also sank: "He is the one I protect, have you asked me if you want to move him?"

"No need to ask you!"

Karl looked straight at Aurora without the slightest fear in her eyes, "When I want to do something, it

never depends only on."

At those words, the faces of everyone present changed.

William and Caroline's eyes became even more awe-inspiring.

This was Karl.

The rules were a showstopper in front of him.

It was only about wanting to do it, not about being able to do it.

How dominant was that?

Lydia immediately turned back to Leo and said, "Don't be afraid, Leo, with me here, he wouldn't dare to

hurt you."

Having said that, she didn't have the slightest bit of confidence.

Because she was in front of Karl, she was nothing but relying on Karl to be guilty of her.

It was because of the guilt that there was unconditional satisfaction.

But what about the day when Karl didn't feel that guilt anymore?

Leo, however, put down his chopsticks, his eyes faintly looking at Karl, narrowing dangerously.

"Looks like you know something, huh?"

Leo's tone was indifferent as he slowly stood up.

The moment Leo stood up, everyone felt a dramatic increase in pressure.

It was as if they were standing in the middle of a battlefield.

The aura was so overwhelming that they could hardly breathe!

Leo keenly noticed a remark made by Karl.

What kind of forces were involved with it?

Was it 'Phantom'?

Everything pointed to Karl.

Was Karl a member of the 'Phantom'?

Killing intent coalesced as Leo came to the conclusion.

"What is your relationship with the 'Phantom'?"

Leo spoke coldly and walked towards Karl step by step.

Maisy stepped back in horror.

Apart from the horror, there was excitement in her eyes.

Because Leo and Karl, at last, were going head to head against each other!

This was a death wish!

Karl smiled lightly, "Want to know? Then get into the ring at the Northernland Assembly, fight me, and I

will tell you when you win."

Leo's eyes narrowed even deeper.

"Are you challenging me?"

Karl rubbed his chin: "It's you challenging me because I'll be standing in the last round."

Leo smiled gently, except that smile, which did not contain a bit of warmth.

"Interesting. ...... OK, I'll take it, but I won't spare mercy."

"To live and to die, each according to his own fate."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's face became horrified.

"No!"

Lydia and Marie both exclaimed at the same time.

After shouting it out, they themselves froze for a moment.

The two sisters looked at each other, both with awe-inspiring gazes.

Lydia stood beside Leo, clinging to Leo's arm.

And Marie stood beside Karl, holding his arm tightly.

It was all subconsciously shouted out by them for a moment just now.

No one wanted their loved ones to get hurt and bleed, or even lose their lives.

Inadvertently, however, they also came to opposite sides.

When they realised this, both Lydia and Marie's faces turned pale.

"How did it come to this ......"

They muttered.

If Leo and Karl really met at the Northernland Conference, no matter who lived and who died, in what

form should the two sisters meet again in the future?

Enemies?

Or friends?

"Leo, you promised me that you wouldn't participate in the Northernland Assembly, and you've been

banned from the Martial Arts Association, so how are you going to participate?"

Lydia asked anxiously.

Leo smiled gently, "I'm not going to participate, but there are things that I'm going to do, and I'm not

going to lose!"

While Leo was confident, Lydia kept shaking her head.

"It's not a matter of losing or not losing ......"

Lydia wanted to say something else, but found that Leo's gaze was not on her at all.

His pupils reflected Karl's shadow, as if, only he and Karl were left in the whole world.

That was when Lydia knew that she couldn't persuade Leo.

"We'll talk about it when the Northernland Conference starts, today is a thank-you feast."

Leo sat back down again, and Lydia went back with a heavy heart.

While this was happening, the siren blasted and the familiar music of a march was heard.

"What's wrong?"

Maisy asked at the door.

The man said, "They're back from their mission."

"What?!"

At these words, everyone was filled with surprise.

Who was the most powerful person in Ying Lie Mountain?

It was not Karl, but the alternate for the Wyverns!

As soon as they returned from their mission, even the city lord of Hopkins had to come over to greet

them!

Maisy immediately looked at Karl, "Don't you want to meet their captain? Now would be a good

opportunity."

Karl stood up and nodded, "It's a good opportunity."

The reason why he has set the banquet at Ying Lie Mountain Resort was very important, today was the

return of the Wyverns’s alternate.

"Go out together and see."

William, Lydia and the others all looked curious too, after all, none of them had ever seen such a show.

On hearing this, Leo, however, pulled Lydia, "No need to go and join in the fun, they are all new

recruits, let's stay and eat."

At these words, there was a look of shock on everyone's face.

It was Karl and Aurora who both froze.

William and Caroline were even more like seeing a ghost.

The Wyverns alternate, second only to the Wyverns official codified original.

Even if they couldn’t go far to the frontier on missions, they were the ones to go out for some

dangerous people in the country.

Such a group of people were actually 'new recruits' in the mouth of Leo?

"This is nonsense!"

Maisy spoke out coldly.

She had just taken a long break to digest the wine she had just consumed, so she hadn't spoken.

Now that she had sobered up, the first thing she wanted to do was to take revenge on Leo for teasing

her.

William also looked grave: "Leo, you can't talk like that, they are all admirable guards, not some new

recruits."

"It's fine to talk about such things in private, don't spread them around outside, or it will get you in

troubles."

Lydia said solemnly.

Still not out of the duel with Karl, Lydia did not want anything else to happen to Leo.

In response, Leo only smiled lightly and did not say anything.

The Wyverns alternate were, indeed, newcomers to him.

He even drilled them with Sharon when he had nothing to do.

Now five years had passed and the Wyverns alternates he taught at the time should have become

mainstays.

However, when they saw Leo, they still had to shout 'Hello Instructor'.

Karl, Maisy and William intended to go to meet them.

Maisy turned back to Leo and asked, "Are you really not going?"

"No."

Leo said lightly.

Now instructor were to greet them?

Lydia also stayed behind to feed Emilia.

"Then you stay."

Maisy smiled coldly, "Those people are heroes that many big shots can't even meet, you have no idea

what you are missing out on."

Leo stopped responding and ate his food alone.

The group of them then walked out.

Everyone's face was tinged with excitement.

Even Karl had to get on good terms with the Wyverns.

After all, the Henderson was a newly promoted royal family, and its heritage was certainly not

comparable to those of the established royal families.

The reason why the Newman family was the favourite to win the Northernland Conference this time

was that the Newman family was on good terms with Cassius, the Guard of the Westernland.

The benefits of getting on good terms with the big shots of the war zone were unimaginable.

Flags were erected on both sides of the road and even on every tree.

All the cars were out in formation.

Behind them were densely packed squares, already standing in position.

At the head of the group stood none other than Nicolas.

With a serious expression, he was waiting.

Not far away, several helicopters slowly fly towards the area.

"That's spectacular."

Maisy watched for a moment, looking excited.

Although Karl remained calm, he could not hold back the joy in his heart.

So were William, Caroline and Marie.

They didn’t see a scene like this once in a lifetime!

Karl led them to General Nicolas: "Mr. Nicolas, I am Karl, come along to welcome the heroes home."

Nicolas had long heard of Karl's name, and was polite in his manner.

"Thanks."

They also stood in the welcoming parade.

Not far away, a few more cars came.

"It's the car of the Lord of Hopkins, the Lord of Hopkins is here!"

Caroline pointed at the cars and exclaimed.

A middle-aged man hurriedly got out of the car, followed by many other large people in suits.

"Even people from the three great giants are here."

Caroline exclaimed again.

Ernie Palmer, Lennon Grant and Alan Watts all came too.

But they didn't see William and the others.

Everyone looked up at the helicopter parade above.

A huge wind blew and everyone's hair was lifted.

Helicopter was landing! Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

The Wyverns alternates were getting off the plane!
