Man on the ark, forced to become king

"Texas, closed today. No one will be opening the door!"

The Great King flapped its wings, and its penguin face displayed an unusually bizarre expression—who knows how a penguin could make such a wide range of expressions.

"Another enemy has come knocking?"

Behind the bar, Texas sighed upon hearing this, feeling utterly exhausted.

"What do you mean?"

The emperor glared with his small eyes and said righteously, "I never hold grudges overnight. I settle them on the spot. Where would I find enemies!"

"An old man is coming over later, don't open the door for him. By the way, is Lin Lu home? Ask him if he's free, and invite him to dinner!"

"Oh."

Texas gave a faint reply, picked up a glass and wiped it gently. Night had fallen, and it was time for the bar to officially open; she needed to prepare in advance.

As for what the Emperor was muttering to himself, as a normal person, she found it really hard to keep up with the thought process of a mentally ill person. She had no idea what kind of trouble this black-hearted penguin was up to now.

However, since this penguin is tough and won't die, no matter how much it makes a fuss, it's none of her business.

"I'll stay far away later, so I don't get splattered with blood when they fight... Never mind, I'll just wipe myself clean and go back to my dorm for some peace and quiet."

With that thought in mind, the black wolf girl made up her mind and quickened her pace.

……

"what happened again?"

Madam Wenyue carried a teapot into the study and immediately saw Wei Yanwu with his eyebrows raised, holding the phone and looking frustrated. She couldn't help but ask him something out of curiosity.

"...It's nothing, just some penguin courting disaster again."

Letting out a long breath, Wei Yanwu casually tossed the phone onto the table, rubbed his temples, and felt the veins in his head throbbing.

Looking across the entire Lungmen, there are only a handful of people who dare to speak to him like that.

However, despite being angry, the matter still needed to be done.

Based on his understanding of that penguin, he was certain that the guy was going to cause trouble, so he had to be on guard and get the person out of that troublesome place called Penguin Logistics as soon as possible.

Furthermore, what's the deal with Qiu Bai? Didn't Chong Yue explain the specifics to her?

Longmen is quite far from Yumen. Why would someone travel such a long way to Longmen and not come to see their future teacher first, instead of going out to look for a job on the street?

This is a slap in the face to Wei!

As the dignified Governor-General Wei, the lord of a city, how could he possibly lack even a bite to eat from her?

If Chongyue, who is far away in Yumen, knew this, what would he think?

"Has the Emperor caused trouble again?"

Placing the tray on the table, Madam Wenyue chuckled and shook her head, saying, "Having these old friends isn't a bad thing. It saves you from having such a long face all the time, scheming and plotting. What are we having for dinner tonight?"

"Teppanyaki penguin!"

Taking out a gun with a round drum magazine from the drawer, Wei Yanwu casually replied, then threw on his cloak and darted out of the study in a few steps, leaving Lady Wenyue shaking her head in disbelief.

Who says the Governor of Longmen is expressionless and unfathomable?

That depends on who it is with.

There are ways to deal with outsiders, but when it comes to those old friends, the lord of a city is not much different from an ordinary person, and may even be childish at times.

……

"Daughter, don't tell your mother that I've been drinking outside."

Walking with his hands behind his back along the tree-lined path that runs through the park, the Rat King squinted his small eyes and gave a worried reminder.

"Why weren't you afraid of my mom when you were drinking it?"

Beside him, a Zalak girl in a dark dress rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath.

"Am I scared? I'm not afraid of your mother! Besides, I only drank a little bit, just a tiny bit."

The Rat King coughed awkwardly, still trying to explain himself, and gestured with two fingers to make a narrow gap.

How could he possibly admit to being afraid of his wife in front of his daughter? Impossible!

Even if it's something that's out in the open, you can't admit it!

“Go tell that to my mom.”

Lin Yuxia rolled her eyes even more.

"Hey, you little brat, don't you still want to go out and see the world? Your old man went to great lengths to get you this chance to see the world, and this is how you repay me? You just turn around and sell me off to your mother? It's just a little bit of drinking..."

The Rat King kept rambling on and on, making Lin Yuxia's ears twitch back and forth.

"Are you really planning to send me to the Golden Tree?"

"What, would I lie to you?"

Walking ahead, the Rat King shook his head, his tone tinged with a hint of regret: "I know you don't want to take over my business. Since you have your own ideas and want to go out and try your luck, then as your father, I naturally have to find you the best way out."

"In a few days, you should go to the Golden Tree and study hard there. Who knows, in the future—"

call out!

The wind howled, and a dark figure rushed from behind, passing the father and daughter, stepping over the roadside flower bushes, and disappearing from sight.

"...What the hell is over there?"

The Rat King rubbed his eyes, feeling that the shadow that darted past seemed somewhat familiar, almost like...

"Uncle Wei?"

Lin Yuxia's words carried a great deal of uncertainty, as she was not quite sure what she had seen.

Although they look exactly the same, but...

That's the Governor-General of Lungmen!

With absolute power and absolute authority, how could someone who controls everything in Longmen possibly be running wildly through the streets in the middle of the night and trampling on the flowerbeds without any sense of public morality?

Most importantly, Governor Wei seemed to be carrying a very large gun, giving the impression that he was about to engage in a shootout. There was no way that such a thing could be related to the dignified Governor of Longmen.

The Governor-General is leading the way in violating the laws of Lungmen?

"You saw it too? That must be him. There's no one else in the entire Lungmen who looks like that."

The Rat King's eyes darted around, confirming the identity of the shadowy figure that had just flashed by. His expression was strange, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Why isn't that old man sitting obediently in the governor's mansion? What kind of madness is he having in the middle of the night? Could it be that he's suffered some kind of shock?

If the Governor of Longmen were to be photographed running wildly through the streets at night with a weapon, tomorrow's front page would be filled with stories—if any reckless reporter or media outlet dared to gossip about this powerful regional official.

Hmm... look in the direction they're heading...

A rough map of Longmen appeared in his mind, and after a moment's thought, the Rat King finally realized what was in that direction.

Judging from the location of the father and daughter, that should be the bar owned by that guy, the Great Emperor, which is also the headquarters of the infamous Penguin Logistics in the underworld.

Then there's no need to think too much. Governor Wei's unusual behavior makes it obvious that he's after the Emperor.

How did that wicked penguin provoke this old dragon again?

As he pondered, the Rat King's eyes grew brighter and his interest deepened.

He'd seen plenty of jokes from the streets, but this was the first time he'd ever heard a joke about the governor. He might only see it once in his life, so how could he miss it?

Immediately, he grabbed his daughter's arm and excitedly headed over there.

He didn't know, nor did he need to know, the cause and effect of this matter; he was just there to watch the spectacle.

As the saying goes, sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone. Something this interesting deserves to be seen clearly.

As for whether that petty person will hold a grudge later...

The Rat King said he wasn't bothered by having too many lice or too many debts. He'd been dealing with them for so many years, and they'd cheated each other countless times. What difference would one more time make?

He even regretted it a little as he walked away, regretting that he hadn't brought his camera with him before leaving home, otherwise he might have had an unexpected gain that would embarrass some old dragon.

Chapter 256 Governor Wei's Great Defeat of Penguin Logistics

"The Emperor wants to have a drink with me? I... wait a minute, tell them to wait a few minutes, I'll be there shortly, I have some things to take care of."

Picking up the golden leaves that Theresa had given her, Lin Lu casually crushed them, and the two leaves in her hand turned into golden light and dissipated.

As the doctor said, the Golden Tree now has the ability to cope with crises, so those secrets that were once hidden can be revealed.

However, that is not a good thing for the world.

The divine calamity that erupted within the Yan Kingdom was not limited to the Yan Kingdom alone; the world was quietly changing.

According to the monitoring of the natural disaster messenger, the recent outbreaks of natural disasters have been more frequent and intense than ever before, and on a larger scale. These intangible changes have also affected the ancient things hidden deep within the earth. The giant beasts that disappeared after the establishment of modern industrial civilization are gradually awakening from their slumber and becoming active again.

The divine calamity is the aftermath of the resurgence of those giant beasts.

In fact, the divine calamities that have broken out in many places are not the actual giant beasts that are called gods, but rather their agents, fragments, and powerful creatures that have been greatly affected by their power.

They awoke from their long slumber, gazing upon this unfamiliar land, just as they had long ago when humankind was still ignorant.

However, times have changed.
