Chapter 586 Hopkins Alliance
With two dozen men raising their sticks and smashing them around, the damage was staggering.
Soon the whole street entrance resounded with the deafening sound of breaking ss.
In addition to the broken ss, silvery-white liquid soon flowed from the wooden case, all of it make-up.
"Stop smashing, stop smashing, stop it!"
Caroline screamed in distress and went over to stop it in spite of everything, only to be roughly pushed
to the ground.
"Get out of the way, if you dare to stop us, believe it or not, you will also see blood?"
Those big men red at Caroline fiercely and viciously.
Caroline was too frightened to move, and could only watch as a load of goods was smashed into
pieces.
The man waved his hand, "It''s done, call it a day."
The group of men jumped back into the car.
Before leaving, the man looked back at Caroline again, "This is just a warning, I hope you show this
paperwork to your boss and don’t sell the goods again, otherwise, I can''t guarantee that yourpany
will still be avable."
Caroline was shaking with anger: "You''re using your power for personal gain! You can''t see good in
us!"
What was against the spirit of martial arts? How could they force people to do that?
The man stopped and smiled, "Don’t look at me with such hatred, I don’t make the rules, I''m just an
enforcer."
Having said that, he led the men away.
"Miss Henderson, what should we do now?"
The shop manager in the chain shop looked at Caroline with a sad face and asked.
Caroline did not say anything, but called for other chains.
When she arrived at the stronghold, she looked even paler.
Other chains were even worse, with entire shops being trashed.
Moreover, Caroline also learned that other cosmetic shops were safe and sound, except for L Group,
which was smashed.
She''d be a fool not to see that it was directed at her at this point.
She immediately returned to the office and told Lydia and Leo about the incident.
Lydia, who had learned everything, was so angry that she mmed the table.
"It''s not better to wee the Northernd Conference, it''s someone trying to use the Northernd
Conference to bring us down!"
Lydia''s face was gloomy to the core.
The solution given by Leo was simple.
"Step up security, continue selling offline and see who is behind it."
This time, Leo let Wace step in.
Several practitioners from Pearl Martial Arts Association were ced near each of the offline brick-and-
mortar shops.
And this soon reached the ears of the man from before.
He sneered, "L Group is really not afraid of death. I have warned them so much and they still dare to
do business so openly."
"Boss, they don’t have you in their eyes."
The man on hand chimed in.
There was a fierce glint in the man''s eyes, "Well then, let''s bleed them today and show them the power
of our Hopkins."
This man’s main job was usually to collect debt.
This time, with fully twice as many people asst time, they swaggered in front of a chain of shops.
All passers-by, shop assistants, hid away.
Caroline''s face paled, "Why are you guys here again?"
With a sinister smile on his face, the man walked up to Caroline: "Yourpany has quite a lot of guts,
this is not taking me into consideration!"
His name was Kobi.
But this time Caroline wasn''t afraid of him: "You won''t try to smash the shop!"
After saying that, Caroline shouted at Leo in the shop, "Leo, that''s him!"
At these words, Kobi also froze.
"You called someone to help?"
Kobi and his minions were nervous.
But when they saw that a man, none other than Leo, came out of the shop, they were not afraid at
once.
"Hahahahaha ......"
"We thought you had called someone to help you, but we didn''t expect it to be just one person!"
"What, you''re not really naive enough to think that he can save you, are you?"
Kobi also approached Caroline with a cruel smile, "I''ll tell you a secret, not only will I smash things
today, I''ll smash people too!"
Caroline was stunned and pped Kobi in his face, "Rascal, stay away from me!"
Kobi stared incredulously, "How the hell do you dare to hit me? Get this chick!"
The people behind instantly surged towards Caroline.
At this time, Leo had already walked up to Caroline, his eyes indifferent.

"Do you think I don’t exist?"
Kobi also froze for a moment, then pushed Leo''s shoulder.
"Who the hell are you? How dare you shout at me? Do you know that I can get you killed just by your
words?"
"Leo, be careful, there are many of them."
Although she knew that Leo was powerful, Caroline was afraid that there would be too many people on
the other side, so she still gave a warning.
"This chick is right, there''s plenty of us!"
Kobi turned around and pointed to the dense crowd of people upying the entire street andughed,
"This is twice as many people asst time, how are you going to fight?"
"Besides, we''re here by decree, so if you don’t cooperate, we can do it fair and square ......"
Kobi had a face full of smugness.
In his opinion, Caroline and the others were blocking weakly.
Leo smiled, "Oh? Is that so?"
Having said that, he snapped his fingers.
At once, several cold-faced, but sinewy men came from all directions at a distance of fifty metres near
the chain.
They were all dressed in white practice clothes with arge ''Martial'' written on them.
Naturally, it was Wace and those masters of the Martial Arts Association.
Even Millie hade.
But she was not here to fight, but to watch a good show.
Seeing Wace and the othersing over, Kobi had a moment of panic, but once they saw that there
were just a dozen of them, while there were 60 of them, he was instantly not afraid.
"Chick, do you know that some of these people will be crippled because of you?"
Kobi looked at Caroline and said.
"Oh? Are you sure?"
Millie followed behind Wace and said with a smile, "Then do you know that you have been
surrounded by us?"
"Hahahaha ......"
Kobi was also amused by Millie''s remark.
The men on hand alsoughed.
"Do it, don’t get them killed."
A word of caution came from Wace.
Everyone in the Martial Arts Association struck at the same time.
Everywhere they passed, there was the sound of muffled blows.
Within a minute, all of Kobi''s men were lying down.
At the moment it was just Kobi who was left alone.
Kobi was also dumbfounded.
"Now believe that it is we who surround you?"
Wace smilingly came in front of Kobi, his gaze sternly looking at him.
Kobi went limp and his whole body copsed to the ground, terrified.
What Kobi couldn''t believe was that Wace actually came in front of Leo and said respectfully, "Mr.
Cohen, the people are all settled."
At these words, Kobi froze straight away, looking dumbly at Wace and Leo.
It was not that he didn''t have a good eye, on the contrary, when he was at his level, he basically had a
good eye.
He knew all kinds of human rtionships.
These people in martial arts uniforms were obviously Wace''s men.
Kobi could have it guessed.
But what Kobi didn''t expect was that Wace actually took orders from Leo.
No wonder, he dared toe out alone!
It turned out that the men obeyed him.
"Hmm."
Leo nodded lightly, knowing that the other party was just a minor minion, and said to Wace, "Ask who
ordered it."
"Yes, Mr. Cohen."
Wace quickly arrived in front of Kobi, then drove a knee hard into Kobi''s stomach.
There was a muffled sound and Kobi immediately bent his torso and dry-heaved.
This was not a light blow, and Kobi went white on his face.
He stood in front of Wace, his legs trembling.
"What do you want ......"
At this moment, Kobi finally feared.
Wace smiled, "Nothing, it''s just a way to give you a head start."
There was a pause before he continued, "Tell me, who told you to do this?"
Leo stood back, his gaze cold.
The Northernd Congress was held as scheduled, leading to the transformation of the Hopkins into a
city of storm clouds as well.
Behind F Group stood Abraham, and this time, who was it?
But there was one thing that Leo could be sure of.
Kobi was also under orders, and the other side must be a hidden figure in the system.
Kobi seemed to be hesitant to say anything.
Caroline came up and pped Kobi hard in his face, "How dare you bully me, tell me, who sent you!"
Only Caroline''s face was filled with anger.
It was no wonder she was so angry, the offline brick and mortar shops, all of which she was solely
responsible for, were a matter of her performance.
Now that so many brick-and-mortar shops had been trashed by Kobi, her performance would plummet.
Caroline smacked one p after another and no one stopped it, just watched with cold eyes.
Finally, Kobi couldn''t hold out any longer and spoke up.
"This is what the Hopkins Alliance wants, I''m just a little errand boy, you guys don’t take it out on me!"
Kobi shouted, his face full of horror.
"The Hopkins Alliance?"
Leo frowned and gestured for Caroline to move out of the way, inquiring.
"What is the Hopkins Alliance?"
Kobi cried and said, "It''s normal that you guys don’t know because it hasn''t been announced yet, it will
probably be announced in the next few days after the Northernd Conference opens."
"This is a business alliance formed by many giantpanies in Hopkins, most of them are behind the
sponsors behind the Northernd Conference, and are using the Northernd Conference to extend
some peripheral products."
"But they are all owned by JP Business Association, and the higher-ups made it clear that they wanted
to oppose L Group, so there was this cosmetics ban."
Listening to Kobi, the crowd understood what this Hopkins Alliance was all about.
To put it bluntly, it was an alliance of all the Northernd Conference sponsors,ing together to
target L Group.
"Who is the leader?"
Leo asked, narrowing his eyes.
Kobi shook his head, "I don’t know, that''s all I know."
Seeing that Kobi did not lie, Leo did not make things difficult for him and simply let him go.
When he returned, Leo asked n to look into this Hopkins Alliance and came to a very interesting
conclusion.
This actually had something to do with the Guardian of the West, Cassius.
