Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

The wealthy businessmen who hadn't invested looked worried.

Several wealthy businessmen who invested in the company were all beaming with joy.

William Cam said to them, "Alright, I need to go see the Chairman's representative now. You can wait here for our good news."

...

At that moment, in one of Kimberly's private rooms, people were constantly giving him reports.

The wealthy businessmen he had invited were all here at this moment.

They listened to the constantly changing odds.

As the wealthy merchants of the British Empire, invited by William Cam, placed their bets, the odds began to reach an ideal trend.

"The odds for William Cam to win are now 1 to 21."

Kimberly said, "The fish has taken the bait."

The wealthy businessmen nearby nodded: "Mr. Jin, should we add some more?"

Kimberly addressed the wealthy businessmen, saying, "I don't really recommend it... Although I trust Ms. Boudica completely and am doing my best to help them, I've heard that John Jonard, the Western Association's representative, is the one who's causing the problem."

“John Jonard is definitely not here to help Boudica, so he must be here to help the British Empire. If John Jonard gets involved, what do you think their chances of winning are?”

The wealthy businessmen on this side were immediately speechless.

Because if it really is John Jonard involved, and this John Jonard is said to be an agent.

However, he was essentially the same person as Ed White.

"In that case, not only will Lady Boudica lose everything, but she will also have to satisfy their gladiatorial demands and perform the kiss on the princess's shoes."

Kimberly's expression was not good: "So, everyone should just leave it alone. Our money is different from those families'; we don't earn it easily... Of course, there is one situation in which we might be able to make a move?"

After reading Kimberly's words, the group asked in confusion, "Under what circumstances?"

Kimberly nodded, then said to them, "That means the East Asia Chairman's representative will also get involved..."

The group suddenly realized that although they hadn't come to watch yesterday, they had learned about the instant-kill gladiatorial combat taking place here.

"Do you think they'll get involved?" one of the wealthy businessmen asked.

Kimberly gave a wry smile: "Definitely not... Why would they? Those people only do things for personal gain... Even if they were to help, it would be Prince William of the British Empire..."

The group nodded: "That's definitely true!"

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Then came the voice of a gladiator, saying that Boudica had brought several people to request an audience.

Kimberly immediately had someone open the door.

Boudica was still dressed smartly. They had just treated their men to dinner at the Bia restaurant, and after the meal, they went back to change their clothes.

After Boudica and Xiao Ce went inside, they saw that there were quite a few people in the private room.

Moreover, their aura was a bit off.

After the staff closed the door, Xiao Ce said to Kimberly, "Mr. Kimberly and these gentlemen thank you for your help."

Kimberly smiled and then said to the wealthy businessmen beside him, "Alright, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Ce I was talking about. Don't let his status as a slave fool you; he's incredibly capable."

As Kimberly introduced himself, Xiao Ce nodded to them without interrupting Kimberly.

Kimberly then introduced Boudica, followed by the names of the wealthy businessmen.

Although Xiao Ce listened very attentively, it was not easy to remember these names.

After Kimberly finished his introduction, Xiao Ce said to Kimberly, "Mr. Kimberly, the atmosphere here seems a bit tense. Is something wrong?"

Kimberly then recounted the story of John Jonard.

After hearing this, Xiao Ce looked at Kimberly with some surprise and asked, "Mr. Kimberly, are you sure that John Jonard has already been eliminated?"

Kimberly nodded: "While I'm not entirely sure, since he's here, he's definitely not just here to watch. He'll at least place a bet, and I heard that the people he brought are all people who lost money betting yesterday..."

"Therefore, I suspect they're here to make money and cover their losses. After all, such a large-scale operation doesn't happen often. Our operation is already close to reaching a prize pool of over 60 billion. If it continues to grow like this, it might even reach 100 billion..."

"For them, such an opportunity is incredibly easy to make money from. And you'll see, once they decide to enter the game, they'll release some favorable news to entice ordinary people and those who are still observing to start betting on you..."

Xiao Ce naturally understood, and with a hint of disdain on his face, he said, "That's really dirty play... They even want to suck the blood of ordinary people?"

Before Kimberly could speak, a wealthy businessman beside him said, "That's not entirely true. There are no ordinary people here. For ordinary people in Lingas, an admission ticket costs several days' wages, so they wouldn't come."

"Those who come here are all wealthy people..."

Xiao Ce nodded and said, "Then let's wait and see."

Kimberly looked at Xiao Ce's calm expression and said, "Mr. Ce, how come you're not nervous at all?"

Xiao Ce said, "We have done everything we should. Winning would be the best outcome, but there's nothing we can do if we lose."

Kimberly said, "Have you considered contacting the East Asia Association's representative?"

Xiao Ce certainly wanted to see her, but he didn't know if Yin Pan'er would actually meet her.

Moreover, given Yin Pan'er's intelligence, she has already escalated the matter to this extent.

Yin Pan'er will definitely find out.

After all, John Jonard already knew, so there was no reason why Yin Pan'er wouldn't know.

If I'm not coming now, it's either inconvenient or I don't want to come.

Moreover, Xiao Ce felt that this whole affair was more harmful than beneficial to Yin Pan'er and her group.

Xiao Ce then said to Kimberly, "Mr. Kimberly, forget it... John Jonard, the representative of the Western association, and his group are profiting from this. But what do the East Asian association members gain from helping us? Not only do they not gain anything, but they also offend a lot of people..."

Xiao Ce succinctly pointed out the advantages and disadvantages of the matter.

"Mr. Jin, we've done everything we could. We can just wait for the results..."

Xiao Ce added, "Of course, I think that in the face of absolute strength, everything is in vain."

Kimberly gave an awkward smile: "You haven't seen it. They'll stop at nothing to win."

Kimberly continued, "Well, we've already come to this point. As you said, we've done everything we could. Now it's just a matter of doing our best and leaving the rest to fate!"

Xiao Ce nodded with a smile.

...

At this moment, William Cam and Targaryen Isabella arrived at John Jonard's private room.

The two of them were incredibly excited, for no other reason than this.

Seeing John Jonard is the same as seeing Chairman Ed White.

Their identities usually prevent them from being seen.

After the two entered, they glanced around the room and immediately spotted John Jonard, who was wearing a robe.

As agents, they can also wear the robes of the Illuminati, although they are not completely different, there are still some differences.

However, it is not noticeable at first glance.

The two men bowed to John Jonard: "Greetings, Your Excellency, the Chairman's Representative. It is a great honor for us to have you here to witness this gladiatorial contest we have initiated."

John Jonard nodded: "No need for formalities. Actually, your father and I are somewhat acquainted. Moreover, I sensed something unusual about the odds this time, which is why I came."

William Cam maintained a humble and respectful expression.

"Thank you for your concern, Agent. We have investigated this matter thoroughly..."

William Cam relayed the results of their investigation to John Jonard, then said, "Your Excellency, if you are interested, you can place a bet on us. I can't guarantee anything else, but we're certain we'll win this gladiatorial contest."

John Jonard was trying to do them a favor, seeing how confidently they made their promises.

He just gave him a look.

Several white advisors standing next to John Jonard said to William Cam, "Prince William, do you know anything about their gladiator?"

William Cam nodded: "Of course, she originally wanted to borrow from some wealthy merchants, but she couldn't. It seems she has no other choice now, so she's looking for people among her guards... those people might be a bit mediocre, but they're nothing compared to us gladiators..."

The white advisor continued, "Prince William, have you heard about yesterday's internal power struggle between our Illuminati and the East Asia Association?"

This matter was known to almost everyone in Lingas.

William Cam, of course, heard this as well: "I've heard some things; they used some underhanded tactics to win against you..."

William Cam was still very sycophantic when he said it.

John Jonard waved his hand and said, "Prince William, you don't need to worry about our feelings... We lost, we lost, we can afford to lose. After all, winning and losing is normal... Besides, we didn't just lose... we suffered a crushing defeat. And it wasn't that they used underhanded tactics, but that we were simply no match for them in terms of strength."

William Cam looked somewhat embarrassed after hearing this.

For a moment, I didn't know how to respond.

At that moment, the white advisors continued with their routine.

"Their gladiator is East Asian, and as far as I know, your opponent Boudica's gladiator is also East Asian..."

After the white advisor said that, Targaryen Issa really hooked.

Targaryen Issaton, who had remained silent until now, grew impatient: "My lords, what do you mean...?"

The white advisor said, "If everything that happened to you today was meticulously planned by them to lure you in, what will you do then?"

William Cam and Targaryen Isa began to carefully recall what had happened to them that day.

After thinking it over for a while, I realized there were indeed some doubts.

Targaryen Isa spoke first: "They probably don't have the brains to plan all of this."

John Jonard said calmly, "What if? When we played against them before, we never imagined we would lose. And we did lose. It's nothing, just a loss of some money. But William Cam, I heard you took out a loan."

"If you lose... can you bear it? It's only because I have some connection with your father that we thought of reminding you, since our chairman, Ed White, has always been a staunch supporter of your British Empire."

After listening to John Jonard's words, William Cam understood completely.

"My lord, if that's really the case, and this is truly a trap they've set... I... I'm doomed..."

"Please, Agent, save me!"

John Jonard raised an eyebrow after hearing William Cam's words, thinking to himself that he had finally taken the bait.

"Don't be so nervous, we're just talking about what's possible."

Targaryen Isa nodded. "Agent, your reminder is very insightful. And it's quite possible that Boudica harbors deep hatred for me... and that she might have set this trap... Agent, please enlighten me..."

John Jonard nodded: "Actually, there is a way, but it requires crossing some lines..."

Targaryen Isa, considering the possibility of losing, thought that if she were to have to kiss Boudica's shoes as a gift, she might as well kill her.

"Our esteemed agent, we can take care of it..."

John Jonard waved his hand: "You can't do it..."

John Jonard then beckoned to the two men with his finger, and they immediately moved closer.

John Jonard then whispered to the two men.

After listening to John Jonard's words, the expressions on the two men's faces became even more interesting, and their smiles became even more impressive.

After John Jonard finished speaking, the two nodded and flattered him, saying, "Agent, you can definitely do it. If we follow your plan, even if that gladiator is very powerful, it won't be of any use... However, breaking the rules in the arena is something we're afraid we can't do." William Cam said.

At this moment, John Jonard raised his head slightly, displaying an expression of absolute confidence.

Targaryen Isa immediately understood: "Agent, you are the Grand Master's agent of the Illuminati, and this arena is actually your property. For us, it's an incredibly difficult task! But for you, it's just a matter of saying a few words. If you can help us, that would be the best outcome."
