Old Gods, Rapid-Fire Guns, and Prohibition

Chapter 123 [Grand Gift]

George came early again today.

Since he has decided to be a loyal dog, he will not allow anyone to do better than him.

At the moment, it seems that the biggest threat is the guy named Eugenides.

This person was unknown in the Poletta family before, but this time he suddenly stood out. He united a group of old ministers of the Poletta family and had considerable influence.

I'm afraid it's a strong enemy.

Look, Eugenides has arrived and is drinking and chatting with everyone, looking very enthusiastic.

It is said that the wine for today's cocktail party was also provided by him.

This implied a message, that is, he also had control of the Pauletta family's bootleg distillery.

I just don't know about the Porretta family's dock...

He thought so in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face, and he walked towards Eugenides.

The time was pushed back to around ten thirty in the morning.

Most of the leaders of Winster's underground forces have gathered in the castle. They are drinking and chatting about the recent business and situation.

In fact, everyone was somewhat absent-minded.

Because the highlight of today is undoubtedly Sandro's coronation.

Everyone is wondering when it will start.

Just at this moment, Sandro finally appeared.

Unlike Sandro's usual low-key image, his outfit today can be described as luxurious.

The black and red dress has a flavor of iron and blood, and the gold thread in the middle shows a touch of nobility.

He wore a bright red bow tie today, which made his usually restrained arrogance more apparent.

He walked forward step by step, and no one dared to block his way and made way for him.

The crowd was like a split sea.

At that moment, even his height disadvantage no longer existed, and people automatically looked up at him.

This banquet was held on the third floor of the castle.

There is a huge banquet hall on the third floor, which is also paved with red carpet. At the top of the banquet hall, there is a chair covered with black and gold cloth.

That is the throne of the King of the Underground, Winster.

Sandro was walking towards the throne step by step.

The originally noisy hall became extremely quiet at this moment.

Everyone held their breath and didn't dare to make even a sound, for fear of disturbing the lion that was climbing to the top of the mountain.

Finally, he reached the high place and stood in front of the chair.

He looked at everyone, raised his glass, and said, "Thank you all for coming. Today is an incomparably glorious day. I would like to share this honor with everyone present. May our power and glory last forever!"

"May our power and glory last forever!"

Everyone cheered in unison.

Everyone drank the wine in the cup together.

Then, no one knew who was the first to call out Sandro's name, and more and more people began to call out his name.

Everyone began to kneel collectively, which was a gesture of absolute loyalty.

Standing on the highest platform, Sandro's face seemed to be truly bathed in some kind of glory.

Sandro's figure on the stage seemed to be infinitely elevated.

It was a long time before everyone stood up.

Sandro's coronation ceremony seemed to have ended like this.

At this time, Eugenides said: "Sir Sandro, please allow me to present you a gift!"

"Oh? What is it?" Sandro asked curiously.

"Please look out the window."

Eugenides pointed out the window. The curtains in the banquet hall could be drawn back, and outside the huge French windows lay the vast North Sea.

At this moment, on the sea, a ship was slowly sailing towards the castle.

"I present this to you, the fireworks display. If you allow me, please let me direct them to begin." Eugenides became more and more flattering.

"Go ahead." Sandro seemed very excited.

And George was a little bit resentful.

He hated himself for being so slow to react and for not thinking of such a gift.

How can I make Sandro remember something if I send him something in a box...

At the same time, he was also certain of one thing, that is, Eugenides had already grasped the power of the Pauletta family's dock, otherwise how could he mobilize the ships?

Seeing Eugenides signaling from the window, fireworks were set off on the ship.

The gorgeous fireworks bloomed on the sea, attracting everyone's attention.

It was indeed a magnificent gift, and it was most appropriate to celebrate Sandro's coronation.

The fireworks even formed the shape of a crown in the sky.

Sandro couldn't help but clap softly, and the people present naturally didn't dare not respond and followed suit.

What no one noticed was that after the ship finished setting off the fireworks, it was heading towards the castle at an incredible speed.

It wasn't until it had already hit the shore of the castle and was in a sort of landing posture that someone screamed.

"What is this ship trying to do?!"

George also saw this scene, which made him ecstatic, and he also shouted: "Eugenides, what do you want to do?!"

I thought Eugenides would be panicked, but he just turned around and looked at everyone and said, "As you can see, I want to rebel. Oh, no, I want revenge for Master Ethan."

When they heard what he said, everyone thought he was crazy.

Ethan is already dead, so what's the point of talking about revenge?

What could he do with just this ship and him alone?
However, just as he finished speaking, gunshots rang out.

Right inside the castle.

In the castle?

How can this be?

But that was the fact. The gunshots were dense, and from the 'da da da' sound, it was undoubtedly the Winster typewriter.

At the same time, gunmen from the Pauletta family wearing black windbreakers began to pour out of the ship and began to climb the rocks to land.

"Sir Sandro, I will kill this traitor for you!"

George immediately drew his gun and was about to shoot Eugenides.

As a result, at this moment, he suddenly found that the people around him, those big and small leaders, began to fall one by one.

Even he himself felt his hands and feet were weak and he felt a little powerless. This was...

"Oh, George, I'm afraid you can't kill me because I put something in the glass of wine you just drank." Eugenides chuckled.

"I'll kill you bastard..." George tried his best to shoot.

As a result, a gunshot was heard earlier.

The bullet pierced George's palm and caused the gun in his hand to fall to the ground.

"George, you should take a break first. After I kill Sandro, we can talk slowly."

A familiar voice sounded from behind him, causing George to feel an immense fear in his heart.

Ethan?!
How is this possible? !

Isn't he dead?

George turned his head with some difficulty and really saw the familiar figure.

He only felt his eyes go dark.
