The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 283

“OK, David, I understand.” replied Charles.

The two talked for a long time. David also revealed something to Charles. Meanwhile, Sandy had been waiting quietly beside him. After bidding farewell with the two siblings, David returned to the South River International Residence. Then, he made a phone call to Pearl. Pearl picked up the phone immediately.

"Mr Lidell, what's your view?” Pearl's voice was heard on the phone.

"Miss Pearl, how are you?” ask David.

“Not bad. With unlimited financial support and reckless investment, the construction of this center went faster than the original plan. I'm sure it didn't take long to meet the requirements." Pearl replied.

“Nona Pearl, leave it to others for now. Go home first.” said David.

“Why? Do you miss me?” Pearl tease.

"Miss Pearl, we are talking about business.” David said with a wry smile.

"Then tell me, I listen.”

“Nona Pearl, there may be turbulence in Somerland soon. Not only Somerland, but the entire world would slowly fall into chaos. You're not safe outside, so go back first. Ignore other things, for now.”

"Mr Lidel, what happened? I can also feel that the atmosphere here is getting tense and gloomy. Crime is on an increasing trend and the number of police officers patrolling the streets is also starting to rise" Pearl said.

“It's a little complicated, go back first. I'll tell you the details later.”

“OK! Then I will implement this project first. I'll be back in a few days.”

"No need, just leave the job to the people downstairs. You can come back tomorrow. Long delays can lead to complications."

"Okay, then I'll listen to you. But Mr Lidell, is your promise at the airport before I come here still counted? You're the one who asked me to come back.”

David thought back to what he promised Pearl. It seemed that when he returned from the task, he would spend a few days alone with her. Thinking of this, David felt a headache coming.

Compared to Amelia, David feels that Pearl is harder to deal with.

Since the founding of East League Capitals, he has done nothing, while Pearl has handled everything. It could be said that Pearl contributed the most to him increasing his strength so quickly, and also why East League Capitals could be what it is today.

At the same time, it is he who is always worried about the company and also the most tired. Without Celia, she really wouldn't mind being with Pearl.

Pearl was a few years older than him, but that didn't matter. This was because Pearl was the best beauty in everything. He could only take one step at a time. As of now, he still could not think of a way to deal with this matter with Pearl perfectly.

“Of course! But, while I can't do it this time because I have a lot of things to do. I can only do it after a while" David said.

"It's okay as long as it's still counted. Whatever happens, you must fulfill your promise and accompany me alone for five days.”

"Of course!”

"Also, you should listen to me for these five days. You can't say no to anything I ask you to do. Don't worry, I won't do anything to hurt you because I don't have the heart."

"Alright.” replied David after thinking about it.

He could vaguely guess what Pearl would do. When he returns, David will tell him about Celia. Otherwise, things might develop in a way that he cannot control. She did not want to hurt Pearl and she did not want to hurt Celia.

"Then we agree!”

After hanging up the phone with Pearl, David lay on the bed, wondering if he should get a marriage certificate with Celia.

This way, he could also deal with the women around him. However, if they were like Selena who said she didn't care even though she knew she had a boyfriend, things would get a little more complicated.

‘Hopefully Pearl isn't like that. Forget it, I should stop thinking about relationships. It is better to think about how to make Somerland safe and in control in the chaos that will ensue.'

Mason is still around so he doesn't have to worry about hostile foreign forces for now. The first thing he had to do was assign a disciplinary team to prepare at various locations. Then he will personally lead the team to resolve Somerland's internal concerns, namely the Dominic family and the Star Alliance.

After these two things were settled, his luxurious points should be almost enough to make his mind power break through.

Next day. David flew straight back to the Capital. She did not go straight to Celia because she was menstruating. Tomorrow is the day that the members of the disciplinary team will gather. He had to meet Julia first and study the list sent by the hidden great families and sects. He needed to see what kind of strong people had been sent so that it was easier to group them.

The two made an appointment to meet at Opulence Manor. This will be the headquarters of the disciplinary team from now on. By the time David arrived at Opulence Manor, Julia had already arrived.

“David, this is a list sent by the main force. I've finished it. There were a total of 96 people.6 of them were God Rank Partial, 38 Peak Dragon Rankers, and 52 Late Stage Dragon Rankers. I also split them into 11 teams according to their strength as you wish. Please look and notice what else needs to be adjusted." Julia handed David a stack of documents and said.

“Are they all so strong? It seems that these hidden families and sects suffered heavy losses this time" David said after receiving the information.

"There's no other way. You tie up the amount of resources allocated to the major forces in the future with their contribution to the disciplinary team. So of course they'll take this seriously. They all send the most powerful members they can without crippling their own development.”

"Good! How can they benefit if they don't contribute?”

“My great-grandfather also said that you did a good job in this. David, what do you think of the material I prepared?"

David flipped through the information, looked at it for a while, and said, “Yes, it's done well. The division also makes sense. I'll apply this tomorrow."

Tomorrow, Inside Opulence Manor. Right now, the people sent from all the major hidden forces in Somerland were gathered here. There were 132 people and no less. Six Partial God Rankers. Among them, two old men and four middle-aged people.

When David saw everyone was here, he stood up and said, “Because you're all here, you should know what your purpose is here for. From now on, you will be a member of the Somerland Disciplinary Team. Let me introduce myself, my name is David Lidell and I am the Captain of the Somerland Disciplinary Team. Behind me is Julia Stefani, the Deputy Captain of the Somerland Disciplinary Team. I don't care if you guys are a Peak Dragon or a Partial God Ranker, or maybe you guys have a very high position in your family or sect. Since you are here, you must obey my orders. How much resources can be allocated to your family or sect in the future depends on your contribution here, so if you don't want your troops to leave without getting anything, then, you guys should be more serious. Next, Vice Captain Julia will send you some documents detailing your groupings and which provinces you will be responsible for. Julia, give them the documents.” David turned to say to Julia behind him.

“Yes, Captain!” answer Julia.

Julia went ahead and shared the document with everyone.

"The information you have details the team you are in and the area you are dealing with. If you have any questions, you can ask them now and we'll finish them on the spot. If you don't mention them now, it means you've agreed to it. I hope the disharmony won't happen again in the future." David looked at the nearly 100 strong men below and said.

"Captain, I want to ask if we can change the area that is our responsibility.” someone stood up and asked.

"You can, but you can't change to an area where your own power will reappear, lest you start to do secret or dishonest deals with your own troops. Where do you want to move?” ask David.

"Then why are you in the same group as us?”

"I'm the captain, so can't I be in the same group as you?”

"Since the six of us are put into groups, we will naturally be tasked with solving important problems. I'm just afraid you're gonna drag us down and we need to assign someone to protect you. Who will be responsible if the mission fails? Who will be responsible if something happens to you?”

As soon as he said that, the atmosphere on the scene became a little lively. Everyone looked at David with a mocking look. They were very unsure of a young man in his early twenties like David being their captain.

David looked at the old man who was questioning him. Not wanting to lose, the old man looked back at David. The two stared at each other for a few seconds. Others looked at them with curiosity. At the same time, they were also confused by the old man's behavior.

When they came here, they were warned by their families and sects not to get into conflict with David. Even if they are not satisfied, they must hold back. This is because David's status in Somerland is very high. They can't offend him, at least until they're sure Mason's dead. Despite rumors that Mason is dead, everyone is just speculating and no one wants to confirm this.

No one wants to be the first to move forward. However, once it was confirmed that Mason was indeed dead, the Somerland Disciplinary Team would be a joke since it was impossible to withstand so much force.

Brak!

"David, what does that mean?” The old man said as he slammed his hands on the table and stood up angrily.

"You know what that means. Think carefully. I'll give you ten seconds to think about it."

The atmosphere at the scene became tense as some people secretly felt angry. The old man looked at David hesitantly in his heart. Should he team up with Somerland to besiege and exterminate Dominic's family, or continue to team up with Dominic's family to kill David here?

David obviously already knew about the old man working with Dominic's family, but he said this to give him a chance. However, Dominic's family says that it is essentially confirmed that Mason is dead, and soon, hostile foreign forces will come to invade and occupy Somerland.

When the time comes, Somerland will be in chaos. David stood a dozen meters away from her at that moment. He was only a Peak Dragon Rank, so he had no room to fight against the power in front of him.
