Chapter 163: The Trent Family’s Arrival

Barrette stood up and walked behind Armstrong. After patting his shoulder, he continued, “The both of us have already drawn up a plan. All of you will follow Armstrong to the city first. I’ll be arriving slightly later. Make sure to obey Armstrong’s orders!”

Everyone stood up and said in unison, “We are willing to do everything for the Trent Family!”

The battle cry was a custom that had been passed down the Trent family for several generations.

It was also the only time Douglas had spoken during the meeting.

After all, as noble Beastmasters, they should be solving their issues via combat. What was up with all the smoke and mirrors?

The older Douglas got, the more he questioned the Trent family’s principles.

They were like sewer rats!

One after another, the subordinates left to make their preparations.

Armstrong noticed Douglas hesitance and called out to him, “Douglas! Make sure to bring in some exiled Beastmasters tomorrow…”

Then, Armstrong brought out some duel contracts that he had obtained from the federal court. “If you spot any stragglers tomorrow, sign the contracts and immediately murder them! The Holy City will be in chaos tomorrow! Don’t show them any mercy!”

The Trent family was just no weaker than the White family when it came to manipulating the law..

“Yes… Young master.” Douglas’ expression darkened.

…

Just as Armstrong had expected, the Holy City had fallen into chaos the next day.

Most of the citizens had forgotten about their jobs, and they were wandering aimlessly through the city streets.

They held up signs to buy ketchup at a high price. They were willing to pay more than 10 thousand federal coins per bottle!

Even the police officers that were sent by the City Hall had joined the parade.

There was even a heavily addicted group of citizens that surrounded the City Hall to protest against the prohibition law they issued previously.

Due to their terrifying level of addiction, they paid no mind to the officials orders, and they had even caused several brawls to break out.

Some addicted criminals had even robbed the restaurants in broad daylight, all so they could get another mouthful of ketchup..

The onslaught was so fierce that even the Dallas restaurant, which was under the protection of the underground forces, was not spared from the havoc.

The restaurant was wrecked, and it was a complete mess.

The moment the criminals brought out the box containing the ketchup, chaos immediately descended upon the streets.

It was to such a state that the word chaotic did not even begin to describe the scene.

Meanwhile…

The Federal Academy was faring slightly better.

After the Chief Physician, Carter’s full day of research, he had managed to develop a drug to suppress the addiction somewhat.

After taking the drug, the instructors and students finally calmed down. Fortunately for them, they did not carry out any acts that they would come to regret.

“Principal, the drug can only suppress the symptoms temporarily. Moreover, my drug’s efficacy will drop over time. This situation mustn’t continue any further …” Carter looked anxious.

Hobrick had just received a distress call from the City Hall.

However, he had no way to provide assistance.

After all, there were only two people in the Federal Academy who were unaffected by the ketchup’s influence, and both of them were standing right before him.

“Didn’t I already told you guys during the academy’s Healthy Eating Fair?! Ketchup contains a lot of sugar, and it is very detrimental to the skin and body. I told you guys to stay away from it, but no… You guys just won’t listen…” Diana adjusted her black-rimmed glasses and looked at the group of gluttons before her.

Locke was seated in a chair and going through Hobrick’s book.

Out of the two unaffected people, one did not possess any combat ability.

Just as Hobrick was aching over what action he should take next, he suddenly heard several people shouting, “Look! It’s a ketchup flyer!”

Everyone immediately walked out of their tents and looked up.

Ketchup fliers were raining down from the sky.

Diana picked one up.

The Trent family’s family emblem was illustrated front and center on the fliers.

The ketchup was only the background image.

Below the flier, were the words: “Please wait for our arrival at the South Gate. Our family has prepared sufficient ketchup for everyone!”

“It really is the Trents!”

“Are they crazy? Why are they doing this!”

“I have a bad feeling…”

“Are they here to buy people’s hearts?”

The instructors hypothesized.

Locke tossed his book aside, wiped his hands, and grinned. “Let’s see what tricks they’re up to!”

Locke summoned Gale Wings and took to the skies.

“Let’s go and take a look too!” Tristan attempted to summon Black Tortoise out of habit, but nothing happened.

Jacques took out his car keys. “Alright, I have a ride prepared. Old man, please watch over the campus. Diana, Tristan, and I will go…”

During his flight, Locke noticed that there everyone in the city was rushing towards the city’s South Gate.

Had one not known better, they would have assumed that someone from the royal family had graced the city with their presence.

Locke decided to head home and check his parents’ condition first.

Meanwhile…

Armstrong and his men were arriving at the Holy City’s South Gate.

He was dressed in gorgeous clothes and he was carrying a loudspeaker in his hand. He shouted, “Hello, friends of the Holy City! We are the Trent family from Gold City. We have come here with the ketchup that all of you have been desiring! Hahahaha…”

Alice sat in the back seat and looked at the lowlifes before her with much contempt.

After parking his car, Armstrong continued, “I heard that our family’s ketchup is very popular! I’ve brought a few trucks worth of them with me this time! I guarantee that everyone will get their fill!”

Armstrong then ordered his men to open the truck’s hatch.

The truck’s hatch opened to reveal the tens of thousands of ketchup bottles stacked neatly within it!

The Holy City citizens stared blankly at the ketchup bottles. Their one true desire was right before them.

Had it not been for the Battle Beasts watching over the truck, the citizens would have already swarmed the truck!

An ordinary citizen close to the truck asked timidly, “The City Hall has prohibited the ketchup though… No one is allowed to buy or sell it…”

Armstrong gave a cryptic smile and responded, “Hasn’t the City Hall officials realized that the lack of ketchup is stagnating the Holy City’s economy! What useless officials! However, you don’t need to worry. If no one in the city complies with the law, what can they do? Arrest all of you? Do they even have enough space to contain all of you?”

His words were very provocative!

The hive-minded citizens began to echo his words!

“Indeed, everyone here wants ketchup! As long as none of us abides to that bullsh*t law, they won’t be able to arrest any of us!”

“Have no fear, men! The law cannot punish all of us!”

“We want to eat the Trent family’s ketchup!”

“That’s right! There’s no need to be afraid of the City Hall!”

The citizens’ mood was at an all-time high, and they were pumping their fists non-stop.

This was exactly what Armstrong wanted.

Armstrong proceeded with the next part of his plan, “I can feel your enthusiasm, everyone! Up next, I will explain the ways in which you can purchase our ketchup…”
