An hour later, on the outer ring road, a few hundred meters from Zhenxin Town.

More than a hundred of the victors' henchmen blocked the road, each armed and watching the road ahead warily.

Several large trucks were parked sideways on the highway, forming a temporary steel wall that was more effective than any roadblock.

Lucius stood at the front, giving his underlings a pep talk: "Brothers, the police have come several times, and we've cooperated fully with the investigations, and the truth has always prevailed. But this time, they've come again. They're henchmen hired by the son of Calydon, trying to challenge our Triumphs' dominant position."

He raised his arms and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Brothers, what do you suggest we do in this situation?!"

A cunning and treacherous young man managed to portray the feel of a hot-blooded gangster.

It must be said that he did his best.

"Teach them a lesson! Show your dominance!"

The underlings were in high spirits and shouted loudly.

They brandished their weapons, responding to Morse's shouts with passion and anger.

"Okay, that's it!"

Lucius was quite satisfied and said, "However, Boss Pompey left a message saying we can't provoke others casually. Let's all put on a show of force later. If they know what's good for them, let them go; if not, let them know the might of the Triumphs!"

This was merely a facade, meant to impress Pompey.

Actually, he still hoped that the two sides would fight, because the day when the Fire Hell Cycling would decide the outer ring's overlord was very close.

The more chaotic things are at this point, the better. Let the outer ring be in complete disarray, and let Pompeo be overwhelmed with troubles, so that he can take advantage of the chaos.

"We understand! Don't worry, Boss Morse!"

The group of henchmen shouted excitedly, "If they refuse to listen to reason, we'll teach them a lesson!"

They were all eager to fight, their inherent violence and ferocity awakened, and they longed to show their power.

"it is good!"

Lucius was very satisfied with his men's performance.

With such elite troops, Caludon's son and those people in the security bureau will definitely be utterly humiliated!

Just as Lucius was feeling smug, a large truck, four motorcycles, and three cars sped towards them.

Regardless of the vehicle, they all displayed top-notch driving skills, using elegant lateral drifts to stop in front of the roadblocks formed by the truck convoy.

The tires rubbed against the ground, leaving several black rubber marks.

The underlings were immediately startled and turned their gaze towards the direction of the approaching vehicles.

A group of handsome men and beautiful women got off the bus, each dressed differently, but all exuding the same imposing aura.

Apart from a silver-haired young man and a blue-haired young woman who looked weak, everyone else was quite formidable.

The triumphant men couldn't help but look down at themselves, then turn to look at their brothers, and realized that their side looked incredibly shabby. Compared to the handsome men and beautiful women on the other side, they seemed destined to be cannon fodder.

Suddenly, they became furious.

Who says a poorly drawn art style makes a character a villain?

That's what real tough guys from the outer ring are like; they'll definitely beat those pretty boys on the other side to their knees and beg for mercy!

"Good afternoon, everyone. I am Zhu Yuan, the head of the Criminal Investigation Special Task Force of the Public Security Bureau. We have no intention of offending you, but we are here to investigate the whereabouts of Perlman, a major criminal in New Elidu."

Zhu Yuan stepped forward and said seriously.

“I am Caesar, the leader of the Sons of Calydon. I guarantee in the name of the Sons of Calydon that they have absolutely no intention of harming anyone. Please do not be nervous.”

Caesar stepped forward as a mediator, introducing them to each other. She hoped the matter could be resolved peacefully, and that fighting was not a necessary means.

Seeing that the people opposite were so polite, the Triumphs' henchmen, although they did not put down their weapons, showed a much more relaxed expression.

That's true. Although these people look impressive, they're all pretty boys. They're obviously young masters with some influence in New Ellie City, not here to cause trouble, but rather to gain experience and prestige.

Lucius, however, wouldn't stand by and watch this shift in public opinion. He sneered, "Heh, say whatever you want. The police came twice before, and we cooperated with their investigations, but they found nothing. Are they treating us Triumphs like pushovers, trying to bully us whenever they want?"

The first strategy is to fan the flames.

The more than one hundred henchmen of the Triumphs turned hostile and glared fiercely at the people opposite them.

Zhu Yuan frowned, sensing that this guy had ill intentions: "We don't have that idea, don't overinterpret it."

Lucius ignored him completely and continued his fabrication: "We don't have Perlman here; the two previous investigations should prove that. I think you're just outsiders hired by Caludon's son to try and interfere with the position of the Outer Ring Dominator!"

"The Hellfire Ride is almost here. Caludon's son clearly lacks confidence in winning, so he's resorting to underhanded tactics!"

Actually, he had heard that several members of Caluton's son's group were very good drivers, so he was not very confident.

But now, who cares? Let's just throw a load of crap at them first.

"Get out of the outer ring road! Go back to the city!"

The Triumphs' underlings were filled with rage and glared angrily at Su Chen and his group.

Lucius couldn't help but feel secretly pleased.

The second tactic, reversing right and wrong, proved remarkably effective.

“The son of Calydon would never have such a thought!” Caesar said angrily, his voice suppressed. “Morse, if you don’t know us, call your boss Pompey out and discuss this with us.”

Lucius remained calm, a glint in his eyes, and shouted, "Are you trying to join forces with the evil forces in the city who covet the outer ring to put pressure on Boss Pompey, using the lives of so many of the Triumphs' brothers to threaten him? Let me tell you, the Triumphs will never allow Boss Pompey to be insulted, and we will never let your conspiracy succeed!"

The person who wronged you knows better than anyone how wronged you are.

As the true traitor among the Triumphs, Lucius could easily pin his own mission on someone else.

"Boss Pompey!"

"We won't hold our boss back!"

"Kill them! Boss Pompey will not be insulted!"

The victor's underlings were completely excited and couldn't wait to charge in.

In their hearts, Pompey held an unparalleled position; he was a trusted elder brother to whom they could entrust their lives, and a banner that upheld the honor of the victors.

"..."

Zhu Yuan and Caesar looked at Lucius with great hostility, thinking that this guy couldn't understand human language.

They try to talk things out, but this guy always manages to steer the conversation in a different direction, determined to stir up trouble.

"Su Chen, I feel like there's something off about that guy."

Ling stood beside Su Chen and whispered.

"Yeah, judging from his appearance, this guy must be hiding Perlman."

Su Chen crossed his arms and said with great certainty.

He time-traveled a bit too early, and he really didn't know what was going on with this part of the outer ring road.

But just by looking at Lucius's slovenly appearance, he immediately knew that he was no good and that killing him would not be unjust.

"I think it's still important to have evidence when handling cases."

Qingyi also felt that Lucius was no good, but the sheriff's working principles limited her.

What if this guy is afraid of being discovered doing something else wrong? We can't be too hasty in our judgment.

And at this time.

Lucius once again stirred up his underlings' emotions, adding fuel to the fire: "Brothers! Let's go together and show those traitorous sons of Calydon and their cronies the power of the Triumphs!"

"The victors are the only, invincible overlords of the outer ring!"

He raised his arms and shouted, his expression one of fanatical rage, like a berserker.

"Charge! Fight!"

"For honor!"

The triumphant henchmen, whose minds were only on muscles, immediately went berserk and grabbed their weapons, ready to attack.

Lucius gave a sinister smile and silently retreated behind the crowd.
