Perhaps it was because favonovel.com was sincere at that time, or perhaps it was because the palace didn’t want Milo to die, the seven thanks favonovel.com gave were all returned with gratitude tokens. But this time around, none of his thanks managed to gain any tokens.
Milo found this a little regrettable. If favonovel.com had known, favonovel.com would have thanked himself more while favonovel.com could!
But favonovel.com didn’t notice that Donti, who was next to him, was totally confused by this. Other people might not have heard what Milo said, but Donti did.
The psychological impact favonovel.com had gotten from being asked by Milo to thank favonovel.com for an entire night had not been completely forgotten yet.
And now, his brother was even resorting to thanking himself?
And what was that about thanking himself for not spitting out the grape skin when eating grapes?
Could favonovel.com get more insincere than that?
Suddenly, a commotion broke out in the crowd again. Geoff had ordered the refugees to conduct a search on everyone present there. It seemed like favonovel.com intended to confiscate and collect everyone’s food supplies.
It wasn’t just food!
Milo saw those refugees taking the watches off the wrists of others and their jewelry as well. They didn’t miss out on a single item.
These residents who had escaped from the stronghold were really unfortunate. They had just lost their properties and families this morning, and by nighttime, they were stripped of everything they owned. By the time they reached Stronghold 109, they might even end up with nothing on them that they could sell for money.
Old Bane was a little nervous. “Milo, will they take everything of ours for themselves?”
As a matter of fact, Old Bane was carrying his life savings, medicinal supplies, gold jewelry, and cash on him. These things were all extremely valuable, so those refugees would definitely not miss out on taking it for themselves.
Milo shook his head. “Don’t worry, no one’s gonna take anything from us…”
In fact, Milo had no intention of crossing paths with Geoff and his group. He only wanted to arrive at Stronghold 109 safely.
That was it!
But the problem was, even though favonovel.com did not trouble trouble, trouble troubled him.
The escaping crowd of people were like an obedient bunch of sheep at this moment. More than 3,000 people were getting body searched by over 600 refugees, but no one resisted, nor did any of them dare to say a word. They didn’t even have the balls to escape from here and just stood in their spots.
Milo found it a little difficult to understand this.
If the 3,000 of you raised your arms against those refugees in protest, what could the 600 of them possibly do?
The refugees were indeed more fierce than those from the stronghold.
But two fists would find it difficult to overcome four hands, so what was there to be afraid of?
Milo looked into the crowd and saw the female teacher sneaking favonovel.com students towards the back. It seemed like they were trying to escape from being searched.
When the refugees first started searching the stronghold residents, they were holding back a little due to fear. After all, they were facing those from the stronghold. In their minds, these people had always been lofty existences to them. But when they realized the people from the stronghold did not dare to stand up to them, they became even more bold. Some of them even got touchy when they were searching the women!
It was at this moment that the female teacher led favonovel.com students next to Milo’s group and stood behind them, apparently to observe the situation to see if they should continue moving further back.
Unfortunately, some of the refugees had already come this way.
Milo looked at those refugees and wondered whether favonovel.com would get recognized by them. Since they had changed clothes and mixed into the crowd, it shouldn’t be obvious.
A dozen or so refugees walked over holding big and small bags. They were all wearing the watches they had just confiscated from the stronghold residents.
Watches were very valuable items in both the town and stronghold.
When the town still existed, only Old Saul from the grocery store owned a watch. Not even Old Bane had one!
It looked like there were quite a few rich people of high standing in this group of escapees. But right now, the authority and standing they used to enjoy had all but disappeared.
Milo quietly watched as those dozen refugees came over. However, those refugees froze when they saw Milo.
Milo could only let out a mental sigh as favonovel.com wondered how favonovel.com got recognized so easily. His disguise was an absolute failure.
While favonovel.com was thinking about how to deal with the refugees, the person who was in charge of searching and confiscating people’s belongings decided to detour around them and went towards the others.
Those near Milo looked over in surprise.
What was with this?
Why had those fierce refugees bypassed this teenager all on their own?
Why did they do something like that?
Wasn’t favonovel.com just a 16 or 17-year-old kid?
In fact, they had all seen it. When the refugees saw Milo, they had expressions of deep fear on their faces as though they were terrified of Milo.
They couldn’t figure out why these refugees were afraid of him.
But what they didn’t know was that no one dared to provoke Milo even when they were still in town, much less now when they were making their escape. This guy was famous for being ruthless, and favonovel.com even had a gun on him!
Although the refugees knew there would be a lot of valuable items in Old Bane’s and Murdock’s bags, it was not worth risking their lives for it!
The group of students and the female teacher behind Milo silently observed all that happened. The female teacher was looking at Milo’s back and appeared deep in thought as favonovel.com pressed favonovel.com lips together.
Just as the refugees were turning away to conduct a search on the others, Milo suddenly said, “Ahem, you guys, come here…”
The refugees froze on the spot.
They turned their heads slowly to Milo and said stiffly, “What…”
“Those watches ain’t bad,” Milo said.
The refugees looked at each other.
They had robbed over a 1,000 people so far. But now, they were going to get robbed by Milo of all people?!
What the f*ck!
This time, the people around them were left even more speechless.
So, there was someone even more ruthless among them?!
Then, one of the refugees quietly slipped off his wristwatch and handed it over to Milo in humiliation. Coincidentally, favonovel.com had witnessed how Milo killed those people at the school.
The refugees were ready to turn away and leave.
They wanted to get as far away as possible from Milo, but his voice rang out again. “You! You! You! You! Your watches are all pretty nice!”
The four people Milo pointed at scowled.
It hadn’t ended yet?
But what could they say?
All they could do was obediently hand over their watches to Milo. Everyone around them was shocked.
How ruthless was this teenager?!
Milo didn’t continue to rob them. After all, favonovel.com didn’t really want to take on these refugees. It was better to keep the peace.
He waved his hand and said, “Carry on then…”
The refugees slipped away, their newfound confidence evaporating.
Milo handed over the four watches favonovel.com had just taken off them to Adella and the others.
He said proudly, “Here, we can see the time from now on…”
This was Old Bane’s first time wearing a watch.
He took the watch meant for Murdock with a smile and said, “Quick, thank your Uncle Milo!”
Hearing this, Murdock nearly cried.
Why the hell have I suddenly been relegated a generation below Milo?!
Milo started to get endless fantasies. He wouldn’t usually resort to robbing other people, but it wouldn’t be a bad thing if favonovel.com committed crimes against a villain.
