My Waste Husband
Chapter 914

Chapter 914

The reason why Henry came here today was because of the swordsmanship of the metal puppet in the underground city.

The puppet's sword technique was exactly the same as the old man's. However, compared to the metallic puppet's sword technique, the old man's attack was even sharper and more despairing.

Henry absolutely didn't believe it was just a coincidence. The first time he came here, he felt that the old man was full of mystery. This time, the old man brought more mystery to Henry.

"A brand new year..." Henry muttered what the old man had just said before he left, "What can be called a brand new year?"

Far away from Yinzhou.

Inside a luxuriously decorated villa, a middle-aged man with blond hair was looking at the bronze tripod in front of him.

Yachim, the leader of the Sandsea Bandits, lowered his head and looked respectfully at the middle- aged man with blond hair.

The middle-aged man with blond hair circled the tripod and said, "Is this the tripod?"

"Yes," Yachim replied respectfully.

"Okay." The middle- aged man nodded and waved his hand.

Outside the villa, several tall and strong white bodyguards came in.

"Carry this tripod inside!" The middle- aged man ordered. Several bodyguards immediately went forward, picked up the copper tripod, and walked into a room.

The blond middle-aged man showed a smile and looked very proud.

"Mr. Drewe, I've brought the tripod here. The rest of the money..." Yachim said with a smile.

"Mr. Shao, I'm very satisfied with your work this time. Don't worry about the money." Drewe said in fluent Chinese, "Wait a moment, I'll be back soon."

"Okay, Mr. Drewe, you take care of your own business first. I'm not in a hurry." Yachim smiled.

Drewe nodded, then walked towards the room where the guards had taken the tripod.

"That's okay. Put it down and leave." Drewe waved at his bodyguards.

A group of bodyguards walked out of the room.

Drewe walked into the room. It was a large room, and it looked luxurious. Its surrounding walls were gold- gilded, and the chandelier hanging from the ceiling was worth millions.

A copper tripod was placed in the centre of the room.

With a turn of his head, Drewe solemnly closed the door, locked it from inside, and then turned off the lights in the room. The moment the lights were turned off, the whole room was in complete darkness.

At this moment, even Drewe himself was on one knee. One couldn't see the expression on Drewe's face in the darkness, but he could hear the latter's respectful voice. "Master, the tripod has been delivered."

As soon as he finished speaking, a mechanical sound could be heard coming from the wall opposite him. Right after that, a figure appeared in front of him.

In the pitch-black room, one couldn't make out the figure's appearance. Through the window, a ray of moonlight shone upon the black figure. Drewe subconsciously glanced at it. In his eyes, he could only see a white mask without any facial features, as if it were a ghost at midnight, making him feel terrified.

Drewe hurriedly lowered his head and didn't dare to raise his head.

"Is this the tripod?" The figure asked. Its voice had been specially processed, so it was hard to tell if it was male or female. It sounded like a mechanical voice.

"Yes." Drewe said. "This is the one that was unearthed from the Loulan Kingdom."

The black shadow walked forward, extended his hand and rubbed against the tripod. After making a circle around the tripod, he asked, "Where is the thing in the tripod?"

"A thing?" Stunned, he replied, "Master, there was nothing in the tripod."

"Nothing!" The black shadow suddenly raised his voice. "Without that thing, what's the use of this broken tripod?!"

After the black figure finished speaking, he placed a heavy palm on the tripod. The copper tripod in front of Drewe was immediately broken by the black shadow's palm. Pieces of the tripod splattered everywhere, and a piece of copper flew past Drewe's neck, leaving a mark of blood on his neck.

Kneeling there, Drewe didn't dare to move an inch. His entire body was trembling, and his face was filled with fear.

"The tripod is fake! You idiot, you didn't even realize that it was fake!" The black shadow scolded when he saw the broken tripod. "If this was the real tripod, it couldn't be broken into pieces!"

The color in Drewe's face changed. "Forgive me, Master!"

"Forgive?" The black shadow looked at him. "The experiment on the Antarctic region has already reached the most critical point. Now that thing from the Luolan Kingdom is extremely important. It is the first medium in the world. Tell me, how could I forgive you?!"

Drewe lowered his head, not daring to make a sound. He was shivering.

"I'll give you three days! After three days, come and see me after you get the object that was in the tripod. Otherwise, you will pay with your head!" With that, the black-clothed man waved his hand and hid in the darkness once again.

A few minutes later, the lights in the room were turned on again.

Drewe looked at everything in the room. The gold- gilded walls were filled with broken copper tripod fragments.

A thick fear appeared in Drewe's eyes. After taking a few deep breaths, he finally stood up, wiped away the bloodstains on his neck, slowly opened the door, and walked out.

Outside the room, Yachim was waiting anxiously. When he saw that Drewe had come out, he immediately went forward and smiled apologetically, "Mr. Drewe, is there any problem with the tripod? What about the money..."

"You have the nerve to ask me for money?!" said Drewe with a roar. This roar was enough to dispel all the fear that he had just suppressed in his heart, "Yachim, do you think that I, Drewe, am easy to bully?"

"I don't dare!" Yachim quickly shook his head. He knew that this Drewe was not only a rich man but also a spokesperson for a first-class underground power. If he offended him, he would definitely come to no good end.

"Since you don't dare, why did you bring a fake tripod to me?" Drewe glared at Yachim.

"Fake tripod?!" Yachim's heart skipped a beat. "How could it be fake?"

Without explaining much to Yachim, Drewe said directly, "I want to see the real tripod within three days, or you'll have to think about the consequences yourself!"

After finishing his words, Drewe swung his sleeves and strode to the back of the hall, leaving Yachim standing there alone.

Yachim looked in the direction in which Drewe had left and then at the room where the tripod had just been placed. Then, he slowly walked out of the hall.

Outside the hall, there was a large manor. Inside the manor, millions of luxury cars were parked everywhere like garbage. A huge parking apron stood out in the centre of the manor.

Dozens of members of the Sandsea Bandits were waiting in the manor. When they saw Yachim come out, they all walked up to him with excitement on their faces.

"Boss, how was it? Did you get the money?"

"Boss, the other party has agreed to sell the island."

"Boss!"

A series of excited voices sounded in Yachim's ears. He glanced around and suddenly shouted, "Enough!"

Yachim's voice was so loud that it startled everyone present.

"Boss, what's wrong? They didn't give me the money, did they?"

"Big Boss."

"You idiots only have money in your eyes. You don't even know that you've been robbed!" Yachim's eyes were fierce. "Go and find that Delsean!"
