Skyfire seems to have suffered a destructive hit, was it you who arranged it? I’ve received news that Europe is quite furious and ready to send reinforcements at any moment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing, Aron Jackson seemed to suddenly remember something and immediately continued, “Among the people brought by the Ridge Family, there is a monster with three hands!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Three hands?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed thought for a moment, then instructed, “Send me their whereabouts; we absolutely cannot let them reach Five-river Province. And regarding Skyfire, I haven’t taken any action. From what you’ve told me, it seems like this incident is related to the person with three hands. It would be best if you could get a photo.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sudden destructive blow to Skyfire clearly wasn’t the handiwork of that woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her current strategy was to unite everything, targeting only him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To start by crippling Skyfire provided no benefits to the newly established Boulevard League.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We actually got one!

Didn’t I tell you, if your child is sick take him to the doctor, why are you calling me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A torrent of cursing came through the phone, followed by diminishing background noise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obviously, the person was in a public place and had now left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Reed, I am currently at the Leopold Family villa, to avoid arousing suspicion, I had to behave as such.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About ten seconds later, Bridger Davenport’s voice came through the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Skyfire…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Skyfire was struck by a devastating blow last night, the Saint Heir was injured, and many were lost.
