He would arrive at Southern Faction's territory if he continued to move forward.

However, he wasn't familiar with the layout there, so he didn't know how to locate Southern Faction's base.

While at a loss, he heard footsteps coming from ahead of him.

Johnny hurriedly gazed in that direction and saw someone walking toward him.

This person must be from Southern Faction since he shows up here. I can ask him to bring me to Southern Faction's

base.

Johnny shouted, “Hey, come over here. I want to ask you something.”

That person was none other than Speedy, who had just escaped Southern Faction in a pathetic state.

After running far away from Southern Faction's base, Speedy let out a sigh of relief. Just then, he heard someone

yelling at him.

Speedy's blood pressure skyrocketed at that instant, and he almost passed out in fear.

He assumed that the person screaming at him was someone from Southern Faction who was sent to eliminate and

silence him.

Amidst his desperation, his legs turned to jelly, and he couldn't help but grovel on the floor to beg for mercy.

“I'm sorry. It's my fault. Please spare me. I'm begging you.”

Johnny froze in his spot.

What the hell? What's going on? Am I this intimidating here in Southern Faction? Their people are getting on their

knees, begging for mercy upon laying their eyes on me. Am I that scary? Also, why does this person's pleading

voice sound so familiar? It seems like I'm acquainted with him.

After contemplating for a few seconds, Johnny approached Speedy and looked carefully at the latter's face.

Upon recognizing Speedy's facial features, Johnny exclaimed in surprise, “It's you! Speedy!”

Isn't this one of the guards in Southern Faction's Legion? Why is he here, and why did he kneel after noticing me?

We are considered equals, so he didn't need to get on his knees.

Not to mention, Speedy's face was severely beaten into a mush, and one of his arms was broken. Evidently, he had

been tormented by someone.

Hearing Johnny's astonished voice, Speedy hastily looked up as well.

When he realized it was Johnny standing before him, excitement washed over him instantly. He grasped Johnny's

arm like a drowning person clutching a straw.

“Johnny, take me away. Let's hurry up and leave this awful place. H-Help me. I-I'll give you all my riches.”

Johnny quickly asked, “Speedy, tell me what happened. Who hurt you so badly?”

Speedy answered, “T-Those people from Southern Faction did this to me.”

The people from Southern Faction!

Johnny was taken aback. “Are they out of their minds? How dare they harm a Legion member, not to mention a

rent collector like you. Who are they to lay a finger on you?”

Speedy sighed. “Johnny, no. Mr. Johnny, now is not the time to talk about this. Take me away from here, and I'll

describe the incident to you in detail later.”

“Speedy, tell me. Did Southern Faction's people kill the men from Northern Faction?”

“No, that's not the case. The people from Northern Faction had joined Southern Faction.”

Johnny clenched his fists. “D*mn it! How dare that b*stard Golden Cicada betrays Northern Faction. We'll never let

him off easy.”

Speedy pleaded again, “Mr. Johnny, I beg you. Let's quit talking about these irrelevant things and leave in a hurry.

The people from Southern Faction have gone crazy. If they catch up with us, we'll definitely die.”

Sensing the severity of the circumstances, Johnny carried Speedy on his back. “Hmph. Speedy, if it weren't for your

grave injuries and the fact that you may die at any time, I would crusade against Centuria. Since I need to prioritize

saving you now, I'll let them off for now. Let's go.”

The two swiftly left.

Johnny felt relief that he ran into Speedy before arriving at Southern Faction.

Otherwise, he would be sharing the same fate as Speedy.

Johnny brought Speedy back to the Legion's camp and immediately attracted everyone's attention.

“Johnny, why did you come back so quickly?”

“Didn't I instruct you to collect Spirit Stones from Centuria? Why are you carrying a person on your back instead?

“Who is this? He looks a little familiar.”

“Oh, I recognize him. He's Southern Faction's rent collector. Johnny, why did you bring him here?”

“Did you inflict those injuries on him? If you really did this, you may provoke a war between both Southern and

Northern Factions, you know?”
