Chapter 92: Need a Few Extra Hands

Upon hearing these words, Agustin from Dark Fingers appeared calm on the surface, but turmoil began to stir deep within him.

He witnessed firsthand how world-class assassins from all over the world gathered in one place, forming an army of killers, to assassinate that one person. However, in the horrifying camp, they all died in tragic ways.

Most of them died at the hands of their target.

"Agustin, just tell us a little bit. Don't be so stingy," said the young man in charge of monitoring the drones. He was a top university postdoctoral talent with terrifying research capabilities. Most of the equipment for their team was modified and developed by him. He had been offered a multi-million-dollar annual salary by the country to lead a research team of hundreds, but he refused because he preferred the bloody life of the assassin world.

However, recently, he found that the life of an assassin was becoming more and more boring. Killing had also become unchallenging. Therefore, he became particularly curious about Dead Of Night and wondered if he could survive if it were him.

Seeing his persistence, Agustin hesitated for a moment and finally revealed a bit of information, "You probably guessed most of it already. Countless assassins gathered together to collectively assassinate the world's most wanted, the King of North State. But unfortunately..." He trailed off.

All the top experts in the assassin world perished in that operation. The only reason he survived was that, at the critical moment of attack, he got scared and didn't venture into the camp.

"He's ranked first!" Paige licked her lips. "There's an opportunity for us if we can get him."

"Yes, I really want to give it a try. Even if I die, it would be worth it."

Bobby glared at him. "If you want to die, don't drag us into it. We're not the adventurous type."

He knew Agustin's abilities, but in terms of professional skills, he was definitely the best among the five. Even Agustin could only escape, and he didn't even dare to mention the King of North State anymore. They were simply no match for him.

Paige became slightly displeased upon hearing this, and even Travis and Nolan felt the same way. They were younger and believed in their own strengths.

Bobby and Agustin exchanged a glance and sighed lightly. Each of them had their own abilities, with no hierarchy among them. Just as in scientific research, even if Paige explained something to them, the four of them together couldn't understand it. And if they all acted at the same time, they still might not be a match for Nolan. Travis was skilled in firearms and could shoot down a fly from ten meters away. As for the two of them, their high ranking was due to their experience as killers, their rich experiences.

"Let's go and check Henry's background first."

The surrounding killers didn't dare to stop them, and they couldn't be bothered to deal with the small fry assassins either. They swaggered up to the villa.

"Indeed interesting!" Paige's eyes brightened as she reached out to touch the villa's wall. "This villa is constructed using high-strength, high-load fiber materials. Those who don't know would think it's just ordinary bricks and stones, but they have no idea about its incredible impact resistance. Even if the villa were hit by an air-to-ground missile, the people inside would be unharmed! This kind of thing is beyond the reach of ordinary wealthy people, and even the Harris family, the first family of Freton City, can't do it. I suspect that this Henry has a military background."

Bobby nodded. "I did a preliminary investigation, and it seems he has some connection with Nicholas from the Russo family. It could be Nicholas's doing."

Paige shook her head. "Bobby, you don't understand the concept of using this material to build the entire villa. Not to mention Nicholas, even Master Russo couldn't accomplish this. It's not as simple as just having money and influence. I'm already getting excited. I didn't expect to encounter such a mission while visiting Freton City." Paige chuckled.

Agustin, on the other hand, frowned. As assassins, they hated when things got out of control because it meant they had to exert even greater effort to handle it.

"A bounty of 2 billion dollars is too low. Once the mission is completed, we should demand an additional 10 billion dollars from the employer." Bobby said in a low voice. He didn't like this feeling, but it didn't mean that they couldn't kill Henry.

Dark Fingers had been established for so many years and had even killed the ruler of a small country. The current situation was nothing compared to that.

The five of them walked closer to the villa together.

"There are quite a lot of rooms. How about we split up and search?" Paige suggested.

After a moment's thought, everyone agreed, even the most cautious Agustin didn't find anything wrong with this decision. It's just Freton City; how big can a small puddle be?

"Bobby and Agustin, they're getting old, losing their vitality." Paige said, frowning as she watched the video on his phone.

"There's nothing more to learn from following them. Perhaps it's time to leave."

Paige chuckled lightly, walking and watching the video on his phone. On the surface, he was playing on his phone, but in reality, he had already released a dozen miniature surveillance drones, each the size of a fly, flying out in all directions within a range of about ten meters, all under his monitoring.

He didn't even need to enter the room. The fly-like detectors had already penetrated into the room through various tiny gaps and thoroughly investigated the scene inside.

"There were quite a few dead assassins, some shot, some killed barehanded, but all killed with a single blow. It seems that the owner of the villa has some skills."

The more dire the situation, the happier Paige seemed. This showed that he could have a lot of fun.

"Hmm?"

In the surveillance footage, there were four black-clad assassins stealthily walking in the opposite corridor. Judging by their terrified expressions, they probably found the villa too frightening and were planning to escape.

"I hate people who give up halfway."

A cold glint flashed in Paige's eyes as a surveillance drone stuck to the ceiling and exploded with a thunderous blast.

These state-of-the-art miniature bombs, as small as grains of rice, packed the power equivalent to a hand grenade.

The four killers hadn't noticed the fly above their heads, and they were instantly blown into a bloody mess.

"The wall's strength exceeds my estimation. It seems that the material is at least ten years ahead of the market."

Paige looked at the corridor after the explosion, feeling surprised. He thought for a moment and took out a fist-sized timed bomb from his backpack, intending to test its strength again.

"Kid, that won't work. The bomb you have there is too powerful. It will blow a hole in the wall." Suddenly, a strange voice echoed in the corridor.

Startled, Paige hugged the corner of the wall and asked, "Who's talking?"

He quickly checked the surveillance on his phone and was dumbfounded.

The video on his phone was no longer showing the image captured by the fly surveillance drone but instead a strange young man.

"Your security protection is pretty good. It took me ten seconds to break through. Young man, I see great potential in you. Let me introduce myself. I'm Stefano. I have some interest in various covert technologies, and I would say I'm quite knowledgeable about them. Our research lab is in need of some assistance. Are you interested in joining us?"
