I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

Chapter 685 A Big Shot in the Empire

"What? Adventurers have really come to this city?"

Inside a private room at the tavern, a fat man with a large head and ears, who was happily gnawing on a large leg of lamb, dropped it upon hearing his subordinate's message and anxiously asked, "Where's Anno? Is that summoner inside?"

If he's not there, it means that Anno most likely died in that battle of the gods.

If he were there, it would mean he would have to go up and fight Anno.

To be honest, Cyclone would prefer that Anno die in the war.

save trouble!

"I don't know, there were too many vehicles, and quite a few people inside."

After hearing his subordinate's reply, Whirlwind washed his hands, patted his round belly, and said, "Lead the way. Since we've really managed to hold them off, don't blame us."

To be honest, I quite like this city.

pity!"

The members of the Sifeng Clan standing nearby smiled slightly upon hearing Xuanfeng's words.

If their clan makes a move, this city will be utterly destroyed.

Moreover, their Whirlwind Lord is a ninth-tier powerhouse!

Moreover, they were true ninth-tier powerhouses, those who had mastered ninth-tier skills.

These adventurers are doomed.

If Anno isn't dead yet, he's definitely going to die today!

......

Rumble...

The sound of horses' hooves pounding could be heard.

Anno could feel the ground shaking even while sitting in the carriage.

"What happened?"

Anno pulled back the curtains and looked at the rows of fully armed cavalrymen rushing past, asking, "Where did these troops come from?"

Steinbeck, who had been following the carriage, immediately replied, "Judging from the banners, it's the Roland Empire's most elite knightly order. It seems some important figure from the empire has arrived."

"A bigwig in the empire?"

Anno glanced at the passing cavalry again, his gaze settling on a knight dressed in luxurious light armor, before looking away.

They're just here to rest for the night, so everyone can take a hot shower and change into dry clothes.

I'm leaving tomorrow.

That's why Anno didn't even show his face.

Otherwise, he would certainly have met with Duke Howell.

As for the important figures in the empire, they had nothing to do with him.

But just as the convoy was driving down another street, someone suddenly blocked their way.

Steinbeck, leading three men, spurred his horse forward and asked Andrei, "What's going on?"

Andrei turned to Steinbeck and replied, "Sir, this group of people suddenly blocked our way, asking if the guild master was present. They have important business to discuss with him!"

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, Steinbeck's eyes narrowed instantly as he looked at the group of people in front of him.

There were only eleven people.

The one in the lead should be that smiling fat man.

They appear harmless.

But Steinbeck did not let his guard down.

"Who are you people? What do you want with the president?"

When asked, Whirlwind maintained his smile and said, "I have a request that I'd like to make to the president of the Adventurers' Guild."

"If you want to post a commission, you should first go through the procedures at the Adventurers' Guild!"

"Is that so? Oh well, that's not important. If Chairman Anno is in the convoy, I can just go find him, right?"

"Tell me what you need!"

"You? You won't do, it has to be President Anno! By the way, is President Anno even here?"

As he spoke, Whirlwind shouted towards the convoy, "President Anno! I have a mission for you, please come out and meet me!"

Steinbeck stared at Whirlwind with a dark expression, his right hand behind his back, and said to Whirlwind, "Why do you think our leader would be here?"

"President Anno!"

After shouting "Whirlwind!" several times without any response, he simply stopped pretending and attacked Steinbeck directly in front of him.

Boom!

Despite being on guard, Steinbeck was still punched in the chest and sent flying into a nearby shop.

"Ah~~~"

Passersby, seeing this scene, screamed and scattered in all directions.

Whoosh whoosh!

These attacks came from the other three seventh-tier investigators who had come with Steinbeck.

Steinbeck's hand behind his back was a signal to them.

As investigators, one of their tasks is to ensure Anno's safety.

This group of people of unknown origin was highly suspicious, and the group was already on guard.

Therefore, when Whirlwind made his move, the other three investigators immediately retaliated.

However, the people brought by the whirlwind were all quite capable.

Of the eleven members of the Sifeng God Clan, apart from Whirlwind, who was a level 47 ninth-rank expert, the others were all eighth-rank powerhouses.

In a single glance, all three investigators were sent flying.

However, the moment Cyclone made his move, everyone in the convoy felt a surge of magical energy.

Just as Steinbeck and the others collapsed from their serious injuries, a dozen or so auras emanating seventh-order magical energy appeared in front of the convoy.

"Be careful, sirs! The enemy is very strong!"

After Andrei ran over and dragged Steinbeck out, he found that the latter had fallen into a coma.

The pupils of the others who witnessed this scene dilated instantly.

"It seems that the massive magical fluctuation I felt earlier wasn't a misperception!"

Lu Zhishang stood next to Xue Feibai, carrying an iron rod and looking serious.

"Most likely it's ninth-tier!"

Xue Feibai stared intently at the whirlwind ahead, unable to understand why a ninth-level expert would attack them in Zijinlan City.

"Let's do it!"

With a whirlwind wave of his hand, the Whirlwind God Clan members beside him instantly rushed forward.

But at that moment, several figures appeared next to Xue Feibai and the others.

These were Anno and Buck, among other eighth-tier summons.

"Anno, you really didn't die!"

Upon seeing Anno appear, Whirlwind burst into laughter.

"So, like Ulma, you came from the realm of gods to kill me?"

"Uh, you actually know that guy Urma?"

Whirlwind looked at Anno with some surprise and asked, "I'm curious, how did you escape from Ulma?"

Anno shrugged. "I did try to escape, but Ulma wouldn't give me the chance!"

The smile on Whirlwind's fat face froze instantly, and he asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean? Where is Ulma now?"

At this moment, Whirlwind suddenly realized that it had been too foolish of him to come out so rashly.

He knew Urma and was aware of Urma's strength.

If Anno, who met with Urma, survives, it means that Anno's strength may have been underestimated.

And it's been far underestimated!

"He's fine!"

Before Whirlwind could catch his breath, Anno continued, "He just lost his head!"

"impossible!"

Whirlwind glared at Anno and said angrily, "How dare you play me? You're asking for death!"

As he spoke, he rushed forward.

The whirlwind is very fast!

As we approached Anno, we could barely see him, let alone anyone else.

As a member of the Whirlwind God Clan, Whirlwind was well aware of his advantages.

With his speed, dealing with the group of eighth-tier beings protecting Anno was just a matter of time.

Killing Anno was also a piece of cake.

Based on his observations over the past few days, there is no one in the entire Zijinglan City who can rival him!

Ninth rank is equivalent to a god in Purple Gold Orchid City!

But he was incredibly unlucky.

Just now, a big shot from the Empire arrived in this city!

Clang!

After a sword cry, a lithe figure descended from the sky, landing right in front of the advancing whirlwind.

boom!

The whirlwind was slashed away by this person's sword!

"Within the Empire, all must abide by the law! As a ninth-tier expert, how dare you commit murder in the street? Who are you?"

A neutral yet authoritative voice resounded throughout the venue.

All eyes were focused on the knight standing in the middle of the street, leaning on his greatsword.
