Chapter 660 - "Being Cautious"

While Paul and the Naran Family were busy preparing their troops, Ainsley also supervised her mansion's renovation. 

There were many things to fix, and a lot of money was needed, but Ainsley didn't lack money now. 

Aside from her family's non-unique business, Ainsley had started to sell custom potions to elite families or forces. 

Her mausoleum business was striving that in just a day, she got tons of money enough to install a few heavier firearms. 

The purchasing ability of the shamans really couldn't be underestimated. 

Also, Ainsley accepted monster-taming service even though only once or twice and was targeted for people that she knew. 

For example, her friends' family. 

The monsters that Ainsley tamed were also those residing near the Xocolet Lake, her newly-gained territory. 

With their consent, Ainsley managed to find a good master for these wild monsters, one by one. 

Three days passed away in the blink of an eye, and coincidentally, on the fourth day, Ainsley's little friends immediately lit up the group chat. 

Azkar: Ain, Ain, how is your preparation? There are only around thirteen days left for the tournament's second round! 

Caca: I saw the news from somewhere...your family is strengthening the mansion's defense, right? 

Arlin: Yeah, I know about that too. They said that you're going to build an invincible mansion. 

Larsen: Will there be spirits to guard the mansion? You know, the shamans can use their contracted spirits as a scout or something...be careful! 

Zenan: Oh, that...maybe someone will send a spirit to make a map of the Sloan Family's mansion. If they can figure out the exact layout…

Zenan didn't continue his words, but Ainsley could sense the urgency. It would not be good if someone got the blueprint of the Sloan Family's new mansion. 

After all, the heavy firearms position, the traps, the weak side, or the surveillance camera positions...these things could be crucial in a siege. 

Even the mechanism to open and close the gate was also important. If someone infiltrated the mansion and found the controller, they would be done for. 

The enemy could just open the gate, and the Sloan Family would directly admit defeat. 

Even the barriers layout and the array position was also important. The tools position would be crucial too. 

If someone destroyed the tools, the enemy's air force could easily bombard the Sloan Family mansion. 

That's why, after her friends' reminder, Ainsley created other small teams to guard these precious tools. 

All the people assigned to guard these tools were all elites who had sworn an oath to her. There's almost no chance of betraying her. 

Ainsley: Thanks for the reminder, big sis, big bro. My family is preparing well. We have set up many defensive devices, also offensive ones…

Ainsley paused before sending another message. 

Ainsley: But if you guys have a suggestion, feel free to tell me. I can always install some new devices to ensure my family's safety. 

The five children didn't waste this chance and immediately recommended all sorts of ideas. 

Caca: I heard that lately, using biochemical weapons is a trend among some mafia families. You should have countermeasures for this kind of thing. 

Azkar: Oh, that's correct! Install air purifiers or something...ah, actually, it's easier to hire priests. 

Larsen: Agree with Azkar. No matter what kind of biochemical weapons the enemy has, if we have a priest, we will be safe. 

After all, priests could purify things that could harm one's body. 

This sometimes worked well against biochemical weapons developed through advanced technologies. 

Even if the priests' ability couldn't eliminate the weapon entirely, their ability could weaken the effect, which was also good! 

Ainsley was a bit taken aback when she read Caca's message. 

She didn't think that someone would be so despicable as to use a biochemical weapon…

It was harmful to the environment and could implicate many innocent people. But it's indeed very suitable to be used in a war or this kind of three-day siege. 

Ainsley fell into deep thought as she silently contacted Elliana and Grandpa Yofan. 

[Grandpa, if you can, please hire ten or twenty priests in advance. Or maybe recruit priests to join our family members.] 

Ainsley didn't know if they were allowed to hire workforce from other forces, so she thought of recruiting some too. 

After all, the mafia council said that the participants weren't allowed to receive help from other forces, no matter who it was. 

If Ainsley hired some priests...would it break the rule or not? 

Ainsley decided to ask the mafia council through the personal message box on their website. 

Soon, she got a reply stating that she wasn't allowed to hire priests, mercenaries, alchemists, or other professions that aren't registered as her family's mafia members. 

Because of this, Ainsley had to pester Grandpa Yofan to 'abduct' some priests and register them as a part of the Sloan Family. 

Only then did Ainsley sigh in relief. 

It was already the sixth day when Ainsley managed to rope in several priests. 

She also roped some newbie shamans and swindled the wild spirits to guard against other spirits spying on her mansion, successfully completing her defence line. 

With just seven or eight days left until the tournament's second round, Ainsley started to filter the people going in and out of her mansion to guard against any possible spies. 

Only members that had their unique barcodes could enter the Sloan Family's main territory. 

Even the workers were given temporary barcodes and had to scan the barcodes under the eyes of the patrol guards. 

Sometimes, there would even be a sudden inspection to see whether there are any mimicry ability users mixed within the workers. 

This kind of cautiousness made things difficult for the Naran Family to sound out the Sloan Family's terrain!
