Chapter 320: Octopus Demon
After finishing his words, Zhao Hai waved his staff, and a fireball with a diameter of over a meter smashed towards the hotel’s main door.
With a loud bang, the entire hotel seemed to shake, and then a scream came from outside Zhao Hai's room. Clearly, the invisible death warrior had been hit by Zhao Hai's fireball technique.
At that moment, the door of the adjacent room was pushed open, and Mu Tou and Xu Wanying rushed out with weapons in hand, asking Zhao Hai, "Young master, what happened?"
Zhao Hai shouted, "There are death warriors trying to attack me; kill them!"
The commotion Zhao Hai caused startled everyone in the hotel, including Ryan's guards, who grabbed their weapons and ran out, having no time to put on armor.
At this time, Jili ran to Ryan's room, wielding a short sword that had appeared in his hand at some point. It seemed that Jili was not just an ordinary servant.
Ryan, still dazed, stepped out of his room and looked at Jili standing at the door, asking, "Jili, what’s going on? Why is there so much noise?"
Jili immediately replied, "Your Highness, someone just tried to attack Mr. Wells, but Mr. Wells noticed them. Those we sent out to patrol the night may be in grave danger."
Ryan quickly regained his senses, glanced at Zhao Hai's door that had been blown apart by the fireball, and his expression darkened. He said, "Immediately send someone to investigate who is so bold."
At this moment, Ryan's two maidservants approached him, one of whom was holding a piece of clothing and whispered, "Your Highness, please put this on first."
Ryan was still in a sexy nightgown, and with the hotel in such chaos, it would not be good if someone saw her like that.
Ryan nodded and retreated into her room, quickly dressing before stepping out again. She asked Jili, "How is the situation with Mr. Wells?"
Jili replied, "It's fine; he is still in his room and hasn’t gone out. Xu Wanying has already gone out to handle it, but clearly, those who tried to attack underestimated him—he is a fire mage."
Ryan was taken aback, then nodded, "It seems there are indeed many experts around Mr. Wells. He himself is a fire mage; one of his maidservants is a wind mage, and the servant driving his carriage, Xu Wanying, can take on a thousand men. I wonder what the other servant's ability is."
At this point, a shout of murder came from outside, and after a while, the noise disappeared. Xu Wanying walked in from outside, quickly entering Zhao Hai's room and said, "Young master, it's resolved."
Zhao Hai nodded and stepped out of the room. He had dressed, and Laura and the others followed him as they headed towards the hotel courtyard. Ryan hurriedly followed behind, and her guards held weapons, vigilantly scanning their surroundings.
Soon, Zhao Hai and the others appeared in the courtyard of the hotel. A plump man was standing there, and upon seeing Zhao Hai and the others, he immediately ran towards them. However, Xu Wanying blocked his path.
The fat man stopped, shouting towards Zhao Hai, "Respected sir, I am the owner of the Brown Hotel. I sincerely apologize for what has happened, but please believe me, this incident has nothing to do with our hotel!"
Zhao Hai scrutinized the fat man. He was dressed in luxurious clothes, with neatly combed hair and a large, sweaty face that lacked any expression, making him appear somewhat strange.
Zhao Hai sensed that something was off, but he couldn't pinpoint what it was. Just then, he heard footsteps beside him. Turning, he saw Ryan, her hair a bit disheveled and her clothes not quite tidy, which surprised Zhao Hai. However, he then realized what was wrong.
He turned to look at the fat man and asked, "You are the owner of this hotel?"
The fat man quickly nodded, "Yes, sir, I am Brown, the owner of this establishment!"
Zhao Hai nodded, and just as the fat man breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao Hai suddenly said to Xu Wanying, "Kill him!" Xu Wanying was taken aback but quickly reacted, swinging an axe towards the fat man's head.
