It took Rubus a moment to collect his thoughts. “Are you truly planning to go head–to–head with the Eulogian Club?” he inquired, eyeing Gilmore.
A flash of determination lit up Gilmore’s eyes. “They’ve already made their move, destroying our company’s building and causing casualties among our staff.
Thave no other choice but to fight them to the end.
Rubus’s face turned solemn. “Gilmore, do you truly grasp the strength of the Eulogian Club?”
Maintaining a steady gaze, Gilmore replied, I do. The Eulogian Club is immensely powerful, with three thousand evildoers and a hundred thousand followers.
“But no matter how vast their numbers are, I am not afraid
Rubus couldn’t help but caution him. Please, Gilmore, be very careful
Although he couldn’t fathom the source of Gilmore’s confidence in challenging the overwhelming force of the Eulogian Club, he saw the unwavering resolve in Gilmore’s eyes.
It was the kind of confidence and determination not commonly found in someone acting recklessly.
Thanks for your concem, Rubus. I’ll be careful. Gilmore assured him.
Even though Rubus was his foreign brother, the fact that he had come all this way just to warn him about the Eulogian Club touched him deeply
Rubus, with sincerity in his eyes, said, “Gilmore, if there’s any way I can assist, just let me know.”
He was well aware that the few Martial Gods in his estate would hardly stand a chance against the formidable force of the Eulogian Club.
However, he genuinely wanted to help.
He remembered how Gilmore, despite having the opportunity to control his entire stake in the Kenda and Danald companies, had graciously returned 10% of the shares to him.
So Rubus also wanted to help Gilmore in return
Yet, Gilmore turned him down, saying, “Rubus, I appreciate the offer, but it’s best if you stay out of it
“If the Eulogian Club targets me and then goes after you, I might not be able to protect you.”
Gilmore was sincere in his words. He couldn’t possibly guard Rubus around the clock.
With the vast numbers that the Eulogian Club had, it would be hard for him to fend them off while ensuring Rubus’s safety.
Thus, he didn’t want Rubus to make a needless sacrifice.
Rubus’s face displayed a hint of shame when he heard his reply, I am your older brother, yet when you need me most. I’m useless and have to consider fleeing. It’s rather embarrassing,” he lamented
Gilmore consoled him. “Rubus, don’t blame yourself. The Eulogian Club is overwhelmingly powerful. It’s best if you steer clear of them
“If you were to endanger your entire family for my sake, it would be a grave loss.

Rubus could only nod in agreement.
Don’t worry, Rubus Gilmore assured him. Tll deal with the therat from the Eulogian Club soon.
No sooner had he finished speaking than his phone rang
Abes pulling it out, he noticed it was Spencer calling
A glint of anticipation sparkled in his eyes; it seemed Spencer had managed to handle the situation.
He picked up the call.
Helles, Spencer, How’s the situations on your end?” Gilmore inquired.
Mr. Reed, as per your instructions, I trailed Eason’s vehicle to the outskirts and stumbled upon the Eulogian Club’s base,” Spencer reported.
Gilmore praised him. Good work Keep an eye on that location and let me know of any developments.”
“Mr. Reed, there was some activity at their base about half an hour ago)
“Oh What happened?”
“Approximately 10 helicopters landed there, and over a hundred robed elders arrived. They all seem to be Martial Gods”
Gilmore replied. “Got it. It seems that the Eulogian Club has dispatched a significant number of reinforcements to support their Newville base. Keep watching!
Understood. Mr. Reed”
With that. Spencer ended the call, and Gilmore tucked away his phone.
Rubus, who sat opposite Gilmore, had overheard the entire conversation.
His eyes widened in astonishment. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Gilmore had sent Spencer to monitor the Eulogian Club’s base, and now they were being reinforced by a hundred Martial
This revelation was indeed startling.
Yet, facing the prospect of confronting hundreds of the Eulogian Club’s Martial Gods, there wasn’t a hint of panic on Gilmore’s face.
Rubus found himself questioning just how powerful Gilmore was to remain so composed in such a situation
As these thoughts flooded Rubus’s mind. Gilmore stood up, addressing him, “Rubus. I’ve got some matters to attend to. Let’s catch up another time”
Kubus looked intently at him and inquired. “Are you heading to the Eulogian Club’s outpost in the suburbs?”
Slightly taken aback, Gilmore responded, “You know about their suburban base?”
Kubus explained with a nod. “Even though the Eulogian Club keeps a low profile in Newville, all of the five major families, in lading the Hobarts, are affiliated with them
“Through any connections. I’ve come to learn about their outpost in the suburbs.”
Not feeling the need to hide anything, Gilmore confirmed it. Yes, we’re indeed heading there

Rubus said with concernevident in his eyes, “I overheard your call. They’ve got a hundred Martial Gods reinforcing that suburban base. Can you handle that many?”
A relaxed smile played on Gilmore’s lips as he reassured him. “Don’t worry, Rubus. If I say it’s fine, it will be.”
He then added, “If you’re truly concerned, wait here, and I’ll bring you good news.”
After a moment’s thought. Rubus agreed. “Alright, I’ll stay here and await your good news.”
Gilmore nodded in acknowledgment.
He then turned to the six women on the couch, including Lilian, and said, “Let’s take a trip to the suburbs”
Rubus was taken aback once again. Is Gilmore seriously considering bringing his six girlfriends to the Eulogian Club’s suburban outpost?
“Isn’t that far too risky?” he thought.
However, the six women showed no fear, readily agreeing. “Of course, Gilmore.”
Rubus was utterly astounded “Such audacious ladies!” he thought.
But he swallowed the words he was about to utter, realizing that if Gillmore was aware of the hundred Martial Gods the Eulogian Club had dispatched, then he surely knew the risks involved.
The fact that he was still bringing the six women implied that he was well–prepared for whatever lay ahead.
With that thought, Rubus held his tongue.
After saying their goodbyes, Gilmore and his companions headed outside, where a stretch Rolls Royce awaited them.
This was the luxury car that Gilmore received as part of the wealth and assets of the Hobart family.
At the front of the vehicle, Tillman stood, flanked by Xavier and William.
Tillman opened the driver’s side door for Gilmore, while Xavier and William opened the rear doors.
Before getting in, Gilmore looked at Tillman and said, “I entrust the estate to your care, Tillman.”
In the end, he glanced at Rubus, who had also come out to send him off. Then he added, “And ensure Rubus’s safety.”
Tillman nodded solemnly. “Yes, Mr. Reed”
Gilmore then took the driver’s seat, while Lilian and the other five ladies settled down inside the luxurious Rolls–Royce.
That’s right, Gilmore didn’t bring any martialists from the Dragon Sect with him to the Eulogian Club’s stronghold in the
suburbs
Even Tillman, Xavier, and William stayed back at the manor.
As the Rolls–Royce roared to life, Gilmore drove out of the manor.
On a hill in the suburbs stood the Eulogian Club’s outpost manor.
The vast manor was bustling with Eulogian Club apprentices in dark uniforms, patrolling with keen eyes.
Inside the grand mansion, the spacious living room was filled with robed elders.
At a glance, it could be seen that there were over a hundred.

Blaze, the evildoer, stood in the center, addressing the assembly I’m deeply grateful to all the brothers of the Eulogian Club for coming to my aid
Three robed elders with golden belts responded in unison, “Blaze, we’re all members of the Eulogian Club. Why the formalities?
Besides, we’re here on the cult master’s orders.
“Can you fill us in on this Gilmore?”
These three, wearing gold belts, were among the top evildoers of the Eulogian Club, much like Blaze.
They led the nearly hundred Martial Gods present.
Blaze nodded. “Of course, Henri, Oliver, and Mason. Let me share what I know about Gilmore.”
He then detailed all he knew about Gilmore, from his powerful influence in Eldoria to how he managed to acquire the wealth and assets of the Cuevas family, Ross family, and all five major families in just a matter of days.
He also recounted how Gilmore severely injured Eason and demanded the Eulogian Club’s surrender.
After hearing Blaze’s account, the three gold–belted evildoers–Henri, Oliver, and Mason–along with the nearly hundred Martial Gods they brought with them, all wore expressions of anger.
This Gilmore is too arrogant!”
Blaze. Henri, Oliver, Mason, give the order! Let’s deal with him pow”
Then over a hundred Martial Gods cried out in unison, waving their arms passionately.
