The Pinnacle Of Life Chapter 678


    Nathan spoke up before Alex could. “Hmph, as if he deserves to be weed by us!” Nathan saw Alex


    as a grandmaster, so he figured that this lowly battle was already child’s y to Alex. This


    was why he thought that this Intermediate-Mystic rank old man didn’t deserve to be weed.


    Unfortunately, Nathan was on the same side as Lex, and even looked like one of Lex’s underlings in


    others’ eyes.

    Lex was ranked very low in the SCBA, almost ranked atst ce. So Nathan’s words made those who


    overheard him huff angrily. Some even knew Lex as well. “Hey Gunther, well aren’t you just great? So


    you’re no longer showing


    respect to Lord Bale, huh? Oh, is it because he’s retiring from his position as president today? Have


    you


    decided to take that spot?”


    Lex chuckled lightly, not saying a word. This somehow angered them even further. They thought that


    Lex was just trying to put up a tough act and


    started insulting him under their breath as they walked away because they were worried they might get


    involved in this. They didn’t want Lord Bale to punish them as well. Just then, Philip noticed Lex and


    hesitated, but he still approached him voluntarily.


    With this, the few people who insulted Lex had a smug expression stered on their faces. They


    thought Lord


    Bale had overheard Nathan and came to give them a piece of his mind.


    Many started to shoot pitiful looks towards Lex. One even snitched on him as well. “Lord Bale, you


    might not know this, but Lex is waiting to take your


    position as president! He even said that you don’t deserve his greetings!”


    Lex shot a dirty re at that guy.


    ‘What a backstabber.’ Upon hearing this, anger and frustration welled up inside of Philip’s heart.


    Despite this, he was still cursed with the parasitic worm, so he didn’t date show any of his negative


    emotions


    at the time. ‘If Alex activated the parasitic worm now, wouldn’t that mean I’d be dead? Then it would be


    toote even if


    Tristan were to bring the best imperial doctor over.’


    Hence he knew that he had to act humble and respectful towards Lex for now. Once the worm was out,


    he would definitely have him pay for his actions. Lord Bale ignored that snitch and pushed him away.


    He approached Lex, relieved after realizing that the


    terrifying beast wasn’t around him. “Lord Lex, may I speak to you in private?” Upon hearing this, the


    SCBA members who insulted Lex were appalled as they stared at them in disbelief.


    ‘Lord Bale had referred to Lex Gunther as Lord Lex so respectfully.’


    ‘What is happening?’


    ‘Is Lord Bale out of his mind?’ Alex took a few nces at Philip, not revealing his identity. Philip and


    Lex had only talked to each other for a minute or so.


    Philip kept it short since he had to make a


    speechter as the president to start the battle officially. Lex came back to Alex. “Lord Bale just said


    that the Colemans of Missouri have their eyes on the Sky Tower


    and sent someone over to participate as well. Since the Colemans were a big and powerful family,


    Hydra


    Group couldn’t afford to offend them, so he couldn’t stop this. Oh and, Mr. Rockefeller, do you two


    know


    each other?” Alex said calmly, “I was the one who wounded his hand.”


    “Huh?” Lex was extremely shocked. In just a brief moment, Lord Bale’s speech was over, announcing


    that the battle had officially started.


    Just then, a figure shed right towards the stage. It was a beautiful woman, one of the princesses of


    the


    Coleman family, Ange. She spoke up. “The Coleman family of Missouri wants the Sky Tower. So if any


    of you don’t agree,e


    up on stage and fight me!”
