As soon as the tall, thin man finished speaking, the surrounding air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Several pairs of eyes followed his finger and turned to look in Zhou Huai's direction.

After all, Andrew was too famous in the Free Commonwealth.

As the archbishop of the Papacy, the second-in-command under the Holy Lord, his posters and images are everywhere in the Free Federation.

He was extremely well-known; among the thousands of elites from the Dawn Guild present, very few didn't recognize his face.

Zhou Huai secretly realized he had been careless.

I was so busy releasing the parasites that I forgot to change the disguise of the "Proof of the Faceless One".

It's too late to change my appearance now that things have come to this.

He simply stopped pretending and coughed lightly.

Mimicking Andrew's compassionate tone, a gentle smile played on his lips: "Didn't expect that, did you?"

"Actually, I've been your colleague for a long time."

"I was personally recruited by Mr. Duan to serve as the Guild's top inside agent in the Holy See."

Upon hearing this, the people around were first taken aback, and then burst into laughter and skepticism.

"fart!"

The bald, burly man carrying a battle axe stepped forward and slammed the axe heavily onto the obsidian floor, sending sparks flying.

He pointed at Zhou Huai's nose and cursed, "Andrew joined the Dawn Guild? How could we not know!"

"Which member of the guild, ranked S or above, hasn't been listed at headquarters? I've never seen your file before!"

The cold-blooded assassin next to him, whose body was wrapped in venomous snakes, also narrowed his eyes, staring at Zhou Huai as if he were a dead man.

"Whether you are Andrew or not, it is absolutely abnormal for you to be here today."

The assassin flicked his tongue, his voice hoarse: "Could he be the intruder who triggered the alarm?"

"An intruder? Just a charlatan from the Holy See?" The alluring female mage sneered, toying with a blazing fireball in her hand. "However, since he's not one of us, let's arrest him and interrogate him thoroughly!"

The atmosphere quickly became tense.

The sounds of swords being drawn were incessant.

Various magical halos and battle auras lit up the square.

Thousands of A-level, S-level, and even SS-level experts gradually surrounded Zhou Huai, trapping him in the center.

The terrifying pressure was intertwined; for an ordinary person, this aura alone would be enough to crush them into a pulp.

Seeing this, Zhou Huai sighed.

He dropped Andrew's signature smile and shrugged.

"well."

"I originally wanted to interact with you as ordinary colleagues."

"What I got in return was doubt and suspicion."

He casually tossed the pure silver cross in his hand, and the cross made a crisp sound on the ground.

Zhou Huai raised his head, his gaze sweeping over the fierce-looking faces around him, a smug smile spreading across his lips.

"All right."

"Then I won't pretend anymore."

"I am your father, and I'm coming clean!"

The room fell silent for half a second after he said that.

Immediately afterwards, the crowd became agitated!

What are the identities of these thousands of people?

The elites of Dawn Guild!

A thug who wields immense power in the real world and doesn't even respect the presidents of the Great Xia Kingdom and the Free Federation!

When has anyone ever pointed their finger at their son and insulted him?

"Fuck your mother! You're asking for it!"

The bald, burly man flew into a rage, veins bulging on his neck and eyes blazing with fury.

"You damned bastard, daring to run wild in our Dawn Guild! I'll skin you alive and make a carpet out of you!"

The alluring female mage was also trembling with rage, and the fireball in her hand instantly swelled to the size of a millstone: "Tear his mouth apart! Let him know what death means!"

"Kill him first!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several figures couldn't hold back any longer and rushed towards Zhou Huai with terrifying killing intent.

The bald, burly man took the lead, his battle axe cleaving fiercely towards Zhou Huai's head with a sonic boom that tore through the air.

The cold-blooded assassin vanished in a blur, his poisoned dagger aimed straight for Zhou Huai's heart.

The female mage's explosive fireball crashed down like a meteor.

Faced with this combined attack, which was enough to instantly kill any SS-level powerhouse.

Zhou Huai stood still, motionless.

He didn't even blink.

He simply opened his mouth calmly and uttered a few words.

"Gentlemen."

"Now that you've met your father..."

"Kneel down now!"

The sound wasn't loud, but it reached the ears of everyone present clearly.

The next second.

Strange things happened.

The powerful figures who had rushed up to Zhou Huai, their weapons only centimeters away from him, suddenly froze.

The bald, burly man's battle axe hung in mid-air.

The cold-blooded assassin's dagger stopped at Zhou Huai's chest.

The female mage's fireball was extinguished mid-air.

It's not just them.

Those who took action, those who watched the show, and those who continued to hurl insults.

The thousands of elites from the Dawn Guild in the audience froze in place.

Immediately afterwards.

"thump!"

The bald, burly man's legs buckled, and he knelt heavily in front of Zhou Huai, his knees cracking the obsidian floor.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

The sound of people kneeling echoed across the square.

It was like toppling dominoes.

Rows and rows.

Thousands of people, without exception.

They all knelt down neatly on the ground.

The scene was quite impressive.

The entire square suddenly seemed much smaller, with only Zhou Huai standing there all alone, like an emperor reigning over the world.

"What's going on?!"

The bald, burly man knelt on the ground, his face filled with terror, desperately trying to stand up.

But to his horror, he discovered that his legs were rooted to the spot and completely out of his control!

"My body! My body is out of my control!" The female mage knelt on the ground, her once-proud figure now trembling, her voice trembling with sobs.

"What the hell?! What kind of sorcery is this?! I actually knelt down!"

The cold-blooded assassin struggled desperately, but couldn't lift a single finger and could only remain kneeling.

"Who are you?!"

"What have you done to us?!"

These people all considered themselves the elite of the Dawn Guild, and usually acted arrogantly, regarding human life as worthless.

When have I ever been so humiliated?

Immediately, the square erupted in curses, a mixture of boundless panic and anger.

"You bastard! Release my spell right now, or I'll kill your whole family!"

"You dare to scheme against us! When Mr. Duan returns, we'll tear you to pieces!"

Listening to these noisy curses.

Zhou Huai picked at his ear, looking somewhat impatient.

He looked down at the bald, burly man with a cold gaze.

"Is this how you talk to your father?"

Zhou Huai snorted coldly, his voice exploding in everyone's minds like thunder.

"Kneel down, all of you!"

"Call me Father!"
