Godly Evolution: I Can Fuse with the Genes of Every Living Creature - Chapter 24

Although Iron City was chaotic and had no laws, there were still some unwritten rules.

Such life-threatening actions had to be carried out on the Life And Death Arena.

If they really wanted to kill someone, they could only do it in secret.

Otherwise, once they were discovered by the garrison, they would definitely be arrested and receive unimaginable punishment.

However, what surprised them was what happened next.

After Emerson slowly took all goods from the 4 of them, not a single guard appeared in the vicinity for nearly 10 minutes.

Only after Emerson left did the guards come over to clean up the corpses and blood stains. They had no intention of capturing him at all.

“Oh my god, is someone protecting him secretly? Even the guards didn’t care about it?”

“What kind of background could he have? Isn’t he just a commoner from the slums?”

“Shh! Shut up. If he hears you, he’ll kill your whole family later!”

“Tsk, he’s already gone so far. What’s there to be afraid of?”

“I’m actually quite curious. Could it be that Grandpa Elrond gave him some kind of special privilege?”

The group of people started to discuss among themselves.

However, for most of them, Emerson had left a deep impression on them.

They should not provoke Emerson at all cost.

As Emerson’s fame gradually spread, he returned to his home quietly.

Just as he was about to clean up the goods that he got from them, he suddenly frowned and heard a burst of laughter coming from the backyard.

2 ladies were laughing in his backyard.

1 of them was naturally Lucy, but the other…

Emerson came to the backyard and saw a person who made his hair stand on end.

The lady with unknown strength, Tifa!

Emerson instantly used his spatial ability and appeared in front of Lucy. He pulled her behind him and looked at the lady vigilantly.

Lucy poked her head out from Emerson’s strong arm and made a helpless expression at Tifa.

“Why are you here!” Emerson asked coldly.

When he went out to the auction house just now, he saw that there were guards sent by Grandpa Elrond to protect his sister. They were all very strong men. Normal people would not enter his house easily.

Even if they could barge in, it would definitely attract their attention. The guards would protect her sister at that time.

However, Lucy voiced out all of a sudden.

She said very softly, “I was the one who let Sister Tifa in…”

What?

Emerson frowned and turned around, looking at Lucy sternly.

“Don’t scold her!”

The girl glared at Emerson and snorted. “I was the one who took the initiative to play with Lucy. Why are you blaming her?”

“What do you want?”

Emerson narrowed his eyes and looked at the girl. He would never allow anyone that could hurt Lucy to live in this world.

“Didn’t I say that I’m here to play with her?”

Tifa smiled and looked at him seriously. “At the same time, I’ll find a chance to take revenge for you bumping into me.”

They looked at each other for a long time. However, no matter how fierce, vicious, and cold Emerson looked at Tifa, the light in the girl’s eyes did not flicker.

Eyes were the windows of the soul. Tifa and him looked at each other for a long time, and they did not feel strange. It seemed that it was true.

Emerson snorted coldly. “You can take revenge anytime, but stay away from my sister.”

Tifa immediately rolled her eyes. “I’m more interested in your sister. As for you… F*ck off.”

Lucy, who was behind him, gently shook Emerson’s arm and pleaded. “Brother, Sister Tifa is not a bad person. I believe her. Just now, she wanted to teach me how to obtain elemental power. Unfortunately, I’m too stupid… I don’t know anything.”

Emerson’s expression softened a little. He touched Lucy’s head and smiled.

“Eh? You know how to smile?”

Tifa seemed to have discovered something new. “You look quite handsome when you smile.”

Emerson quickly looked at Tifa solemnly.

However, for Lucy’s sake, he did not flare up. Instead, he took the goods and walked to the side.

Upon seeing that scene, Tifa could not help but raise her eyebrows and whisper in Lucy’s ear.

“Is your brother very poor?”

“He…” Tifa’s question instantly made Lucy feel somewhat awkward. She did not know how to answer. “Perhaps among you genetic warriors, he’s not very rich…”

“Oh!” Tifa rolled her eyes. She then asked again, “Then he’s poor, right?”

“Yes, my brother needs a lot of meat to improve himself every day. The 20,000 gold coins were spent very quickly.”

“I see…”

Tifa held her chin with 1 hand. She was facing at Lucy, but her eyes kept glancing at Emerson who was doing something, as if she was thinking of something.

Soon, Emerson finished organizing his goods.

Their goods only worth 8,000 gold coins. There were also some trivial items that Emerson basically did not need.

Emerson predicted that they had spent all their money on improving their strength and did not have much spare money in their hands.

Like the team that had a crystal card with 100,000 gold coins on them at the beginning…

It could only be said that the Captain who had the status of a noble had no place to spend his money…

8,000 gold coins, plus the 40,000 gold coins from the auction. Emerson had around 50,000 gold coins left.

With Emerson’s current demand, he would used up all the money in less than a week.

The rewards promised by Grandpa Elrond would take another 2 months to reach his hands.

However, next month, he would have to face a terrifying opponent like Rory Queen.

If he could not fight against Rory, he might have to escape Iron City with Lucy and live somewhere else.

Emerson wished to stay in Iron City. He did not want to go somewhere else.

“I need more gold coins, at least a million or more.”

Emerson decided to go to the Bounty Association tomorrow.

“I’m leaving, Lucy.”

Tifa stood up to say goodbye to Lucy and waved at Emerson. “Bye, dummy.”

Emerson just watched Tifa leave coldly.

“Brother!”

Lucy shouted and hugged Emerson’s arm. She pouted and said coquettishly, “Don’t give her such a terrible look. Sister Tifa is my friend.”

“In Iron City, don’t trust any stranger.”

Emerson said a famous saying about surviving in Iron City.

“But she didn’t hurt me. If she wanted to make a move this afternoon, she would have done it already.”

Lucy blinked and continued, “Don’t tell me I’m not even worth having a friend.”

Emerson was stunned for a moment, and he looked at his sister with some doubt in his eyes.

What kind of magic did that woman have to make his sister, who had listened to him since she was young, oppose him like this.
