Doomsday Code

Chapter 548 Apology

Originally, Hills wanted to use this batch of resources to reach a higher level, but now that he has caused trouble, he can only give out all his belongings to apologize.

The receptionist packed the magic crystals in a space bag, and then sealed it in a wooden box to make a gift box.

When she came to the office again, Hills had also changed into a formal suit. When he saw her coming in with a box, he knew that it contained all his belongings over the years.

"give it to me."

Handing the gift box to Hills, the receptionist pursed her lips and said nothing in the end.

Hills gave her a forced smile and said:

"It's okay. I brought this up myself, so naturally I have to make up for it myself."

After saying that, he went downstairs carrying the gift box.

At this time, the Adventurer's Guild Hall was already crowded with people, and all the adventurers in the guild knew what had happened.

When they saw Hills coming down the stairs, they all surrounded him.

They were not trying to stop Hills from leaving, or to say that the dojo was overestimating its capabilities.

Instead, they looked at Hills as if he were an enemy. If it weren't for Dou Mu's strength, these hot-tempered adventurers would have attacked him long ago.

Although Hills knew that he had made a big mistake this time, he remained neither humble nor arrogant in the face of these adventurers.

The domain expanded slightly, pushing away the surrounding adventurers.

And so, Hills walked through the crowd and left the guild hall.

And those adventurers who were unable to get into the dojo team because of Hills' failure were indignant, cursing him with insulting words such as "Hills is a masochist".

People are like this, especially these unorganized and undisciplined adventurers. Once their interests are harmed, they will not care about your status. If they can't win with their hands, they will still fight with their mouths.

As Hills listened to those insults, he knew that he had fallen from heaven to hell in an instant. The flattering words of the past were gone, and only insults and abuses greeted him.

When we arrived at the door of the dojo, the director of the dojo had been waiting there for a long time.

Seeing Hills coming, he smiled and quickly walked down the stairs to greet him.

"President, please follow me."

When the people in the dojo saw Hills coming in with the gift box, they all looked at him strangely.

Although they all mocked Hills in their hearts, they did not dare to show it on their faces. After all, Hills was a real epic-level strongman.

It is an existence that they absolutely cannot afford to provoke.

Hills was led to the office by his supervisor, and outside the office, the manager of the guild's dojo had been waiting here for a long time.

At this time, bruises from being beaten could still be seen on his face.

When he saw Hills, the manager didn't give him a good look. The wounds on his face were caused by the adventurers who had learned the news before.

However, he was a member of the General Association and had no idea what was happening on Hills' side. He suffered an unexpected disaster.

Hills knocked on the door, and soon a young man's voice came from inside:

"Please come in."

Hills opened the door, and when Chen Cheng saw it was him, he sat on the sofa with his legs crossed and looked at him with a calm expression.

"It's President Hills, please take a seat."

Behind Hills, the manager of the guild headquarters in the King's Capital Dojo also wanted to come in. When Chen Cheng saw him, he waved his hand and said:

"Are you so free? Now that everyone in your guild has left, you have nothing to do, right?"

Chen Cheng frowned as he spoke.

Although this person was sent by the guild, his salary was paid by their dojo, so he was just an employee of the dojo.

However, after seeing the wound on his face, Chen Cheng's tone softened a bit and said:

"Your injury is considered a work-related injury. You should leave work early today and find someone to treat you. The lost wages and medical expenses will be added to your next month's salary."

After sending the man away with a few words, Chen Cheng looked at Hills.

"Now it's just you and me here. If you still think you're right, you can immediately use your force to control me. Maybe I'll hand over the real core technology of our dojo under your threat."

Chen Cheng's sarcastic words made Hills feel extremely uncomfortable.

The same was true of the letter of recommendation he had presented to Chen Cheng before.

With a playful look, a seemingly polite tone, and then a disdainful promise of huge profits, Chen Cheng's imitation can be said to be very lifelike.

Hills didn't say anything, but put the gift box in his hand on the table and said:

"There are twenty-three magic crystals inside. The smallest is as big as an egg, and the largest is as big as a fist. This is all the apology I can offer. If you don't accept my apology, then I will have to sacrifice my life."

Now that Chen Cheng is practicing the way of the warrior, he is naturally very tempted by the priceless treasure like the magic crystal stone.

But what he wanted was not these magic crystals, but for Hills to truly understand his identity.

The reason why he could come to the Kingdom of Moss to serve as the branch president was not because he was so powerful, but because the president needed him to come here to provide convenience for Melo.

As for his previous actions regarding the Melo issue, he was more like a coward. The first thing he thought of when it came to Aunt Mei was trouble, and whether he could get rid of her.

This is an extremely irresponsible behavior for a subordinate.

Of course, Chen Cheng was not so careless as to think that he needed to help Aunt Mei teach her subordinates a lesson. He just wanted to use Dou Mu to establish his authority and tell those who were spying on him that he, Chen Cheng, was not someone to be trifled with.

Even if he was the guild president, he could still make him come over and apologize.

“It seems that President Hills still doesn’t understand.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the reason why President Hills can be the president here is not because of your strength. I think many of the unemployed elders in the guild are stronger than you.

The reason you can come here to be the president of a kingdom branch is because the president values you.

And the main task he gave you by letting you come here was probably to serve Aunt Mei well.

President Hills, your actions in this matter are totally unqualified. You want the position of branch president, but you don't want to take on the additional responsibilities given to you by the president.

You say there is no such good thing in the world."

Chen Cheng said this very bluntly, because he could tell from Hills's words of apology that this guy didn't understand his true intention towards him.

After hearing Chen Cheng's frank words, Hills couldn't help but recall the instructions given to him by the president before he left when he was appointed by the president.

“Melo went to the Kingdom of Moss. She said she wanted some peace and quiet. I knew she was against the marriage.

I've turned down this marriage, but she's in the Kingdom of Moss, which will be your territory from now on. I hope you can help take care of her."

Thinking of this, Hills couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.

For so many years, Melo has been staying in the remote town of Huidun City, and my attitude towards her is one of indifference. In my heart, I don't want her to move, so she has been staying in Huidun City in peace.

So when Chen Cheng came with the letter of recommendation, I reacted so strongly, and the first thing I thought of was to warn Chen Cheng. I was completely confused.
