Starting From Douluo, Glory is Invincible

Chapter 719 The city lord is here

 In the spacious and solemn hall of the city lord's palace, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. The city lord's assistant, a middle-aged man, was frowning at the two children in front of him who claimed to be members of the Dragon Pattern Totem Guild. They are too young, and compared to the senior adventurers who often come in and out of the city lord's mansion, they look more like they are just here to join in the fun.

"You mean you have that ability?" There was obvious distrust in the middle-aged man's tone, "Intermediate tasks with additional bounties are no easier than some high-level tasks. Even great spiritualists are in demand. Achieved by a group.”

Ying, this seemingly calm young man, raised his head slightly, with a firm light shining in his eyes: "If you don't confirm it, how can you know?"

 The middle-aged man was stunned. He seemed not to have expected Ying to answer like this. He shook his head, obviously thinking that Ying was talking big words: "The city lord is very busy and doesn't have time to play with you." After saying that, he waved his hand, and the guards on both sides immediately understood, stepped forward, and pulled Zhang Tao and Ying Surrounded in the middle.

 Zhang Tao subconsciously took a few steps back, panic rising in his heart. After all, this is the city lord's residence. They have no reason to take action. If they fight back, they will probably be wanted by the city lord. He didn't want to get into such trouble, so he preferred to run away.

However, Ying stood motionless, his eyes calm and deep, as if he was not intimidated by the battle in front of him. Zhang Tao couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He didn't understand what Ying was going to do. Does he really want to be an enemy of the lord of this city? That is equivalent to turning against the entire Yongri Empire!

At this moment, Ying slowly spoke: "The original God King thought this was a very easy task to accomplish. It seems that getting the approval of the city lord is more important than the task itself."

 Hearing this, Zhang Tao suddenly understood. It turns out that Ying didn't want to be the enemy of the city lord, but wanted to gain the city lord's approval by completing this task. In this way, they can not only complete the task and obtain the bounty, but also show their strength and ability in front of the city lord.

However, the city lord's assistant obviously did not have the patience to accompany the two children to continue their mischief. He ordered with a straight face: "Blast these two children out!"

After receiving the order, the guards immediately stepped forward and approached Ying and Zhang Tao. Although they did not draw their weapons, they made a posture of taking action at any time.

Looking at the formation in front of him, Zhang Tao's heart was already in his throat. He subconsciously looked at Ying but found that Ying still remained calm as if he was not affected by the situation in front of him.

"Wait." At this moment, Ying suddenly spoke. He looked at the City Lord's assistant and said calmly, "We don't want to be enemies with the City Lord or cause trouble here. We just hope to get a chance to prove ourselves. If the City Lord If you really think we are not capable of completing this task, please let us try. If we fail, we will leave.”

The city lord's assistant frowned. He obviously didn't expect Ying to say such a thing. He hesitated and then looked at the guards beside him. The guards were also a little at a loss. They looked at the city lord's assistant and waited for his next instructions. At this moment, a majestic voice came from the depths of the hall: "Let them give it a try."

Everyone turned their heads and saw the city lord William James walking from the depths of the hall. His eyes swept over Ying and Zhang Tao and then landed on the city lord's assistant: "Since they want to prove themselves so much, give them a chance. If they fail, it won't be too late to drive them away."

The city lord's assistant immediately bowed in response and then stepped aside. The guards also moved out of the way to let Ying and Zhang Tao walk to the center of the hall.

William James walked up to them, looked them up and down, and then said: "Do you really want to take on this task? You must know that this task is not simple, even a great spiritualist needs to form a team to complete it."

Ying nodded and said firmly: "We know. But we are confident that we can complete this task."

William James looked into Ying's eyes and was silent for a while and then said: "Okay. I will give you this chance. But if you fail, don't blame me for being rude."

Ying and Zhang Tao looked at each other and said in unison: "Thank you, City Lord."

William James nodded and then turned to the assistant next to him and said: "Take them to the mission release office and tell them the details of the mission. Then prepare some necessary equipment for them."

The city lord's assistant responded and then left the hall with Ying and Zhang Tao. Before leaving, he did not forget to warn them: "You'd better be careful. If you fail, you will be punished."

 Ying and Zhang Tao did not pay attention to his warning. They know that this opportunity is hard to come by and they will go all out to complete this task. Not only do they have to prove their strength, but they also have to prove to everyone that the name of the Dragon Pattern Totem Guild is not just a boast!
