Chapter 1178 - 1181: The Follow Up

*Crack*

Ruben saw Mr. Jones's finger cracked the pen and silently looked away while Mr. Jones simply took a new one without changing his expression. It was obvious that there were a lot of pens that have suffered when Mr. Jones failed to control his strength.

This was one of the downside of having too much strength.

Most of the utensil that people used were things that were made to cater to ordinary human's strength.

Even after the magic beasts' arrival, this didn't really change.

They have no time to design and create such strong materials.

And the after effect was that some people might not be able to control their strength well and caused a little accident occasionally.

"Heh." Mr. Jones sneered. "Do they really think that we're so easy to bully?"

He thought that everyone could remain peaceful after the grand magic beasts' tide, but he forgot that it was human's nature to try take advantage whenever they could. Since the chance was presented to them, how could they not try to take it?

Their own current situation was not very good, but they still think about taking advantage as much as possible.

It was infuriating.

Mr. Jones really wanted to drag these people up and then let his daughter beat them all up. Anyway, with Amelia's temper, it would be a miracle if she could hold back from beating up these people.

Those magicians from the Magic Association was already the perfect example.

Even now, they didn't dare to come back to City A Base after being taught a lesson by Amelia.

Mr. Jones really wanted to say that it was cool.

Only Ruben felt that Mr. Jones really like to play the good cop and bad cop. With his children playing the bad ones, Mr. Jones could keep his image yet still maintain the order in City A Base.

Oh well.

Since the two people in question were not bothered by this matter, then there was no need for Ruben to worry so much.

The most important matter was this sudden meeting proposed by Continent Y.

"If you're thinking of bringing Amelia with you, then please forget about it, Mr. Jones. The meeting will be conducted online because traveling such a long distance is still impossible to achieve in the short term," Ruben said plainly.

Even if the reconstruction of many things have been restarted, it didn't mean that they could travel from one continent to another so easily. Unless they were being escorted by someone powerful, no one would dare to try it.

The last time Riya and Samuel went to Continent W, it was mainly because of emergency.

If it was anyone else, they would not dare to do so.

During the one year when those returnees were away, the meeting with other continent's leaders were also done online. Mr. Jones could only participate in the large scale meeting with many other bases' leaders.

As for the more important meeting?

He has no qualification.

"That's too bad." Mr. Jones sighed.

Ruben silently looked at Mr. Jones.

Doesn't he know why those people didn't dare to meet directly with the other leaders from other continents?

If they dared to meet with them, they will definitely bring a lot of powerful professionals such as the warriors, magic warriors, and even magicians. Continent Z had received a lot of advantage from having Riya around.

Because the runes and formation she made ensured that the people on Continent Z would not lack in food, so they could focus on other things.

Hunting the magic beasts?

That was obvious.

There were many people who rushed over to hunt those magic beasts so that they could get the compensation. And it was also attractive for some people who didn't have enough contribution points to buy the food.

…Though the latter situation was rare in Continent Z.

After all, the price of food had been reduced further so that it could reach the same level as it used to be before the world changed.

In this way, people who didn't want to risk their lives could still live relatively comfortably without the need to worry about not having enough to eat. They could also spend their lives doing other jobs that they truly wanted instead of being bothered by such a thing.

Life would become normal.

Probably…

Mr. Jones pretended that he didn't see the looks that Ruben gave to him. Instead, he glanced to the side and asked, "Let's call those magicians from the Magic Association too."

"…Why do you want to drag them over?"

"I think that it's better for them to participate and see how much of a mess it is outside. In this way, they could stop trying to provoke internal discord." Mr. Jones nodded as if he was convinced of his own words.

Ruben: ???

He looked at Mr. Jones speechlessly and he had the feeling that the other party was trying to pull those magicians from the Magic Association to bear the hatred from other continents.

In this way, it would be possible for Mr. Jones to relax and calm down as much as possible.

"What's wrong, Ruben? Don't you think it's a good idea?"

Ruben: "…"

He silently lit a candle for those magicians from the Magic Association for provoking the Jones Family and Riya. These people would not hesitate to target those magicians from the Magic Association just because of the association's power.

Instead, they would drag those who were truly in power so that they could experience how it felt to be the one schemed against.

Oh well…

Most of the magicians from the Magic Association who were truly making trouble had either died or in dire situation because they were thrown by Riya to the group of magic beasts back then.

The problem is that their family members will definitely come to look for Mr. Jones.

Even if they couldn't make trouble openly, it would not be a problem to make trouble secretly.

Just thinking about it made Ruben sigh.
