Chapter 177: Don't Believe Anything Unless You See It with Your Own Eyes

The Brooks family had their external operatives wiped out overnight, but for them, the loss was minor.

They weren't short on money and didn't rely on those incomes to sustain themselves.

However, without those people, they couldn't complete the tasks for ThunderLord Palace!

The Brooks family had no choice but to inform ThunderLord Palace about the situation, especially since it involved the black cards issued by ShadowCorp. They didn't dare make decisions on their own.

ThunderLord Palace immediately sent someone to Sunrise, and it was none other than ThunderLord's nephew, Perry, whom Jeremy had met in Sunrise.

When the news reached Jeremy, he just smiled.

The old ShadowCorp was dead, and he was about to create a new ShadowCorp, starting from Sunrise.

Jeremy now seemed to understand why he had died three years ago and was framed as a traitor.

It was because he had affected many people's interests, and his existence made many people fearful!

Just like now, if StormDragon from three years ago knew about this, he might have immediately sent people to wipe out the entire ThunderLord Palace and issued a red ShadowCorp card.

At this moment, Jeremy held a red ShadowCorp card in his hand.

This card was prepared for the Brooks family!

Since the founding of ShadowCorp, the red card had only been issued a few times, and each time it appeared, it signified the crime of extermination.

Moreover, the red card had to be personally issued by StormDragon.

In other words, if he issued the red ShadowCorp card now, it would definitely shock the entire country.

"Mr. Taylor, please reconsider!"

Jace, who was responsible for making the cards, knew that this was a genuine ShadowCorp card. Alfred used to make the cards, so Jace understood its significance.

StormDragon had died three years ago, and if a red ShadowCorp card appeared now, it would be a shocking event for everyone.

It would also draw everyone's attention, and all eyes would be on them.

This was why Jeremy hesitated. Should he issue the red card to the Brooks family now?

Jeremy said, "The Brooks family acts with such disregard for human life. I despise such people. By doing this, I want to tell everyone that even if they killed me, they can't kill the rules I established back then!"

Jace's passion was ignited, but he remembered Alfred's words. StormDragon couldn't stand in front of everyone yet, and he couldn't let StormDragon take this risk.

Jace said, "Mr. Taylor, the Brooks family deserves to die, but the red card can be issued later!"

"ThunderLord Palace has sent people, and we've used so many black ShadowCorp cards this time. It's likely that ShadowCorp's higher-ups will come to Sunrise."

"We can wait and see how things develop before making a decision!"

He knew he couldn't stop StormDragon from issuing the red card to the Brooks family, but he could delay it. The Brooks family deserved to die for what they had done.

Jeremy sighed and put the red card away.

"Fine, let the Brooks family live a few more days."

He had recently taken the Elysia Evergreen sent by the Brooks family and combined it with various herbs, solidifying his strength.

Late Mortal Realm, though not yet Supreme Mortal Realm, was enough to kill Marvin.

As long as he took out Marvin, who was at the Half-step Innate Realm, the rest of the Brooks family would be a piece of cake. That’s why Jeremy was so keen on issuing the red ShadowCorp card to the Brooks family.

Jace let out a sigh of relief. Only he and Stan knew Jeremy's true identity, and he was constantly worried about the fallout from Jeremy's actions. They had to find ways to cover up these matters.

Jace asked, "Mr. Taylor, what should we do about Perry?"

Jeremy chuckled, "The Morris family sent such a useless guy. Last time in Dreamville, there were definitely people from ThunderLord Palace among the assassins."

"Since Perry came to Sunrise, he shouldn't go back. Send him a black ShadowCorp card!"

Perry had no idea that as soon as he arrived in Sunrise, his fate was sealed.

But Perry wasn't alone this time. The Morris family wouldn't let him handle this matter solo in Sunrise.

ThunderLord Palace was vast, and the entire southwestern region was under its control. The Brooks family in Sunrise was merely a pawn for ThunderLord Palace.

Within ThunderLord Palace, there was internal strife and family conflicts.

Perry was ThunderLord's nephew, and Sunrise was under his branch's responsibility. The Brooks family was also nurtured by his branch.

With such an incident in Sunrise, if ThunderLord Palace's matters weren't handled well, Perry's branch would be in hot water.

Perry came to Sunrise with bodyguards and another person.

This person's identity was extraordinary!

He was Perry's uncle and one of ThunderLord Palace's advisors.

He was one of the most important people around ThunderLord.

Moreover, he was an ordinary person, not a Martial Artist!

Martial Artists, unless they were powerful enough to ignore rules, were still just people. In Avalonia, most governors were ordinary people.

Those who climbed to high positions had exceptional cunning and means!

This person was Zayne Simmons!

Zayne had come to Sunrise quietly and hadn't shown himself. In front of him, Perry was just a kid.

Perry didn't dare sit and could only stand by the side.

Zayne was comparing two black ShadowCorp cards in his hand.

One was collected by ThunderLord Palace a few years ago, and the other was taken from the people killed in Sunrise this time.

"Zayne, the Brooks family said this black card is a genuine ShadowCorp card, definitely not fake!"

Perry thought Zayne was being overly cautious but didn't dare say it directly.

Zayne sighed, "You don't understand. You can't trust what others say without seeing it yourself!"

"The black card has only appeared a few times in the past three years. I didn't expect so many to appear in Sunrise at once."

"I've examined the black card, and it's genuine. But because it's genuine, it's even stranger!"

"Where are the people you were supposed to capture? How's it going?"

Before they arrived in Sunrise, they had already arranged for people to capture ShadowCorp members.

Although ShadowCorp members hid in various places, some could still be tracked down.

Perry, seeking credit, said, "Don't worry about my work!"

"The ShadowCorp members in Sunrise, the ones ThunderLord Palace had identified, have been captured. They're waiting for you to interrogate them."

"I think these ShadowCorp members should be killed directly to prevent them from causing more trouble."
