CHAPTER 873 THIRTY MERITS
"......"
Olly's attack was fierce, and now at a close distance, both Leo and Morgan felt a strong killing aura
coming over them.
Morgan all held his breath, and even Leo was ready to strike.
The next moment, all the killing aura on Olly's body disappeared and everything was calm.
Even Augus and Judith, who were watching the battle from the side, could not help but stand up,
dumbfounded.
"This ......"
Augus was so shocked that his throat rolled, unable to utter a complete sentence.
Leo's eyes also narrowed dangerously as he watched a scene that no one had expected to see before
him.
Olly's body stiffened in front of him, his right hand raised high, still making a fist smashing down, his
eyes still fierce ---- and even without the bloody hole in his chest, no one would have noticed that his
life had come to an end.
"Leo ......"
Olly, himself, looked down at the bloody hole that had appeared in his body and touched it with his
hand, it was blood.
His pupils were full of reluctance as he looked at Leo, his mouth slightly open, as if he wanted to say
something to him.
Yet another attack.
Olly's brow was pierced and blood blossomed, and this time, his eyes became completely empty and
his body fell limply.
Olly is dead!
All those who came back to their senses, their eyes wide with disbelief, their minds blank, for a long
time, they could not speak.
"Dead? He is dead?"
Augus muttered to himself, touching the cane in his hand before he believed the truth before him.
Afterwards, he couldn't help but look at Leo excitedly, "Mr. Cohen, thanks to you tonight, I was able to
survive!"
However, Leo did not speak, but his expression remained grave as he said in a deep voice, "No, he
was killed by someone else."
Augus nodded with a smile on his face, "I know, isn't that the Commander of Wyverns behind Mr.
Patel?"
"......"
Leo did not speak, but simply looked around this room in silence.
He and the Commander of Wyverns were originally one person, and it was clear to everyone here
except Augus, he had just clearly sensed another, very different and powerful aura hiding in this room.
It was this same man who killed Olly.
The box was silent, not a sound was heard.
Instead of easing the atmosphere, Olly's death has made it even more gloomy.
After staring for a few seconds, Leo's eyes suddenly settled on a cabinet used to hide chess pieces,
and he slowly spoke.
"Since you've killed someone, why don't you stop hiding and come out?"
At these words, both Augus and Judith's faces changed as they looked around.
Is there someone else hiding in this box?
Crunch!
As soon as the words were spoken, the door of the wardrobe opened gently a crack.
An expressionless green-shirted middle-aged man stepped out, looked at Leo with interest and
sneered, "I didn't expect you could actually know where I was hiding."
Augus, Judith and the others, however, subconsciously took a step back, and cold sweat broke out on
their spines.
Was this green-shirted middle-aged man hiding in this cupboard watching them the whole time?
Olly was killed by this man?
Leo smiled and took a sip of tea, "You are well disguised, and it is good to use for escape and
concealment."
The middle-aged man in the green shirt sniffed, a sharpness flashed in his eyes, but he did not get
angry.
He smiled and said to Leo, "Young man, you play good chess."
"Want a game?"
Leo asked with a relaxed look on his face.
The middle-aged man in the green shirt politely declined, "No, I have a task to do, maybe another day."
Augus, Morgan, and Judith all looked at this middle-aged man with shocked faces, they knew Olly's
strength, this middle-aged man was able to kill Olly unnoticed, which meant that his strength must also
be very terrifying.
Leo, however, talked to him as if he was unconscious.
His eyes narrowed as he sized up the green-shirted middle-aged man and said, "If you're not playing
chess, why is there a murderous intent in your eyes?"
"Yes? It's you who's too sensitive."
The green-shirted middle-aged man also said as his eyes narrowed slightly and stared at Leo.
Everyone felt a pinch of urgency that froze the air and made it impossible to breathe.
"Anyway, the man has been killed and your mission has been accomplished. It is not in line with
common sense to come to this Hokuto Chess Club and leave without playing chess, so let's have a
game."
Leo said with a smile, insisting on keeping the green-shirted middle-aged man for a game of chess.
"Morgan, set the chess!"
Leo bellowed.
Morgan froze for a moment, but still dared not disobey, taking out the black and white pieces and lining
up the chess formation.
A glint of light flashed in the eyes of the green-shirted middle-aged man, "Young man, do you mean to
ask me to stay and play a game of chess with you?"
"Do you intend to spare everyone here?"
Leo asked rhetorically with a smirk.
At these words, the others froze, and then a look of intense horror surfaced in their eyes.
The middle-aged man in the green shirt had killed Olly, and they were all witnesses to it, could the
other side spare them?
At these words, the green-shirted middle-aged man was also slightly stunned, but did not say anything.
Leo said, "Anyway, you've shown up, why don't you invite the person behind you as well, so that I can
see who the person who wants to kill Olly really is?"
The smile on the green-shirted middle-aged man's face intensified as he surveyed Leo and gently copyrighted © content.
laughed, "Young man, don’t be curious."
"Coincidentally, I can't sleep until I find out what I want to know."
Leo said, suddenly smiled and said aloud, "Euan, I know it's you, why don't you show up and meet
me?"
At these words, Augus and Judith both paled furiously and subconsciously looked towards the door of
the box.
Only the doorway was still empty, but in the dim light they saw a slanting shadow, standing motionless
in the doorway.
After a while, the shadow came in on crutches, an old man whose age had exceeded eighty years.
He was on crutches and smiling like a kindly old grandfather.
It was the head of the Newman family, Euan.
As the head of the Newman family, Euan was not at all extravagant and lived a life of simple food and
drink, living in seclusion, even wearing coarse linen that had been mended.
When the green-shirted middle-aged man saw that Euan had actually shown himself, there was a deep
look of surprise in his eyes.
Euan sat down in front of Leo, touching a blackl chess piece in his hand, his fingers gently rubbing it,
his face still wearing a calm smile, and as if he was talking to himself: "Half a century has passed since
the Newman Clan went from being a small clan, multiplying and developing all the way to finally
standing on this land and becoming a great clan, what I fear most is not the decay of my family, nor the
presence of strong external enemies. Rather, it is the lack of successors. I have come for this matter,
and I hope you will not stop me."
