As soon as Master Pudra spoke, a montary uproar ensued. But Fang Hong, looking at this sinister-faced Master of Magic Potion Studies, connected what Ande had previously said to him, and felt a sense of inevitability.
The Old Speaker turned his head to look at the opponent, showing a displeased expression and said, "Pudra, out of basic respect for the competition and its contenders, it would be best if you provide a convincing reason."
Pudra nodded silently and said, "Of course, I'm not speaking without basis."
He pointed at Fang Hong, his tone rigid: "Because I suspect Ragnarok of fraudulence in their participant list; this person is not a mber of Ragnarok at all. According to staff verification, he only joined the Ragnarok team not long ago."
Fang Hong was slightly surprised, not expecting the opponent to make an issue of this. But he quickly cald down, having understood the competition rules over these days, Ragnarok being such a large guild shouldn't make mistakes in this aspect.
Indeed, Soul Fingerprint stepped forward to speak, "Please, Master Pudra, do not slander us. There are absolutely no issues with Ragnarok's participant list. We have reported every participant in due ti, everything is recorded and verifiable. You say Mr. Ade is not a mber of Ragnarok, that's true, but he doesn't belong to any other guild or organization either; there's no violation here."
The Old Speaker looked at Pudra again. "Pudra, this matter falls within permissible rules, as long as Mr. Ade was reported as a participant before the start of the competition correctly."
Pudra sneered coldly, "That's not what I am here to discuss. While verifying Mr. Ade's identity, I discovered so interesting facts." He took out several photographs from his coat to show everyone.
Those photos were held in his hand, and even though Eteliria's magic developer was subpar, the protagonist in those black-and-white photos could still be vaguely recognized as Fang Hong. The backdrop was a city square, smoke spreading, people could still see the Phoenix emblem upon the distant door.
The photos were clearly taken in Dulun.
Fang Hong saw the photo and inwardly exclaid that it doesn't bode well.
The photo depicted the mont he saved Enan, where the face of Duke Modkaesar's young son could barely be recognized, and beside him, the towering shadow, mountain-like, was Orphen's Twin Stars.
He thought rapidly, he should have slain everyone present back then; who took these photos? Judging by position, it didn't seem to be the work of the Clockwork Fairy, and the Clockwork Fairy can't take pictures or carry the Record Crystal.
He imdiately realized, besides those Shadow Throne mbers, Enan, and Hilveld on scene, there must have been a 'third party'. And it was this person who took these pictures.
Odin found him due to them as well.
Unfortunately, he always forgot to ask about this matter, but given the nature of their relationship at the ti, Odin wouldn't have answered him anyway. Even though their relations relaxed at Nevade later on, who would rember these details?
Pudra took out another piece of parchnt, which clearly printed this photo. He sowhat proudly held it, saying: "This is a Wanted Order recently issued by Golande, jointly authorized and signed by the Colin Ishurian Royal Family, Pri Minister, and Adventurers' Guild."
"Our Mr. Ade, was not only one of the masterminds behind the Dulun riots, but very likely has connections with the Dragon Worship Sect."
As soon as these photos were revealed, the square descended into chaos.
People voiced their opinions, as the Dulun disturbance happened not long ago, even though Long Lake locals called Dulun people 'Northerners', the places were actually not very far apart.
Moreover, the Modkaesar Family is genuinely one of the three major Southern Region families.
Therefore, the riots from a few months ago spread widely throughout the Southern Region, with most people knowing the antecedents and consequences.
"Oh dear, it's gone wrong!" Tianlan seeing those photos, was also shocked, hastily grabbing the nearby Miss Ship's Officer, saying: "Miss Hilveld, this is bad! Brother Ade has carelessly handed ammunition to the opponent!"
"And they even claim Brother Ade has ties with the Dragon Worship Sect; this is indeed the pot calling the kettle black!"
But Hilveld found it amusing, even at such a mont this little girl takes a swipe at Fang Hong.
She remained relatively calm and simply responded, "Don't panic," while turning to Tang Xin, saying: "Tangtang, could you please notify Master Ande?"
Tang Xin felt sowhat frustrated, being called Tangtang again by the opponent; but since it concerned her cousin, she could only nod.
Hilveld thodically arranged, "Luo Yu, Tianlan, Gita, you three go find Miss Sophie."
Tianlan nodded repeatedly.
"What about , what about ?" Ai Xiaoxiao got anxious; how could she miss out on such fun?
Hilveld just smiled slightly and said to her, "Little Princess, co along with ."
"Huh? Where are we going, Miss Hilveld?"
"I'll tell you later."
"Oh."
In the competition area, Fang Hong heard their words and couldn't help but draw a deep breath.
He stared dumbfounded at the sinister-faced Master of Magic Potion Studies, never imagining this guy would turn the tables.
This almost made him furious, just about to speak in rebuttal. Just at that mont, Soul Fingerprint protested first: "This is absolutely baseless."
