The Iron Post City,
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
The news about Black Fist's destruction eventually reached everyone's ears. From neutral warriors to citizens of the iron post city, everyone was rendered speechless by this development.
Everyone expected some notice from the City Lord Mansion. The days passed with no response from the City Lord Mansion. than issuing bandit hunting missions, they didn't care about anything related to the city.
Burke Trade Centre,
At this time, Remington Talley is conversing with traders. When the news reached his ears, he didn't believe it at first.
But right after noticing the aggressive action of the Fire Sword Team, he finally believed the rumour. An image of Iron Hammer team members flashes before his eyes.
"They really were met with retribution!" Remington said with a laugh.
The traders in front of him were bewildered by his behaviour. But soon their expressions condensed after hearing the news. Everyone is already
racking their brains to solve the current turmoil. Now there is another disturbance.
They fear the remaining citizens will leave the city because of the situation.
Insect Forest
The teams that pledged to the Fire Sword Team were already searching every nook and corner of the outer area of the forest.
Before getting orders from the Fire Sword Team, they didn't dare move to the inner area. which is said to be dangerous as there is no safe zone deep inside the inner area.
The inner area of the insect forest is home to different bugs. The premises of the insect forest were known to everyone. The Warriors' constant killing has reduced the activities of bugs in that area. If the teams were given orders, then they had no choice other than to enter the inner area with caution.
At the camping site,
Mateo Roth held a discussion with his team members.
At this time, Mateo felt a headache from the ongoing situation. It's been a few days but there has been no news about the culprit.
Even the Eastwood company was clueless about the situation. It's really unbelievable for him.
Then, looking at the team members in front of him, he nonchalantly asked, "I heard EastWood Company had never failed to collect information before." But I bet this time they too feel something strange. "
Anyone who provides first-hand information with solid evidence is usually considered credible. The Eastwood company rewarded them with affinity stones. "
"So they have never been in a situation like this." It must be the first setback for them. "
Hearing that, Mateo nodded and said, "True, affinity stones are not a simple reward."
A slight glint flashes in his eyes.
Even in their Tier-7 city, Willow Peak. The affinity stones were sold at a sky-high price. If you want to try your luck, you can only do it at an auction. I
think they would use affinity stones to ignite warriors' greed. The EastWood Company deserved its name.
"What about the other four teams? Is there any movement from them? "Mateo asked, as he was strongly suspicious about the other four teams.
From the beginning, Mateo disliked them because they copied their Fire Sword Team strategy. Everything was going fine at that time, so he didn't confront them.
After the Black Fist team's destruction was known to the public, the other four teams kept silent. So far, except for their subsidiary teams, no one has stepped inside the insect forest.
Mateo furrowed his eyebrows. "What is it with these people?" he thought to himself.
Mateo thought it would do no good if they wasted too much time and manpower on this issue. In particular, he has another reason to worry about.
So far, he didn't know about bandit boss Siren's current situation. He has been following his family's orders. If his family is made aware of the new mess, things can go wrong for him.
Finally, Mateo comes to a conclusion. He decided to solve old doubts with new ones. He plans to meet the leaders of the other four teams.
"Carla, send the invitation to four team leaders." I want to meet them as soon as possible, "Mateo said in a solemn tone. He doesn't want to drag this out any longer.
Carla nodded and walked out of the tent.
East Wood Company,
Old man Tucker Nelson is arranging his men to collect information regarding the Black Fist team.
"Such an event happened in our city. But we couldn't find the reason for it, "old man Tucker said to himself."
He sat back in his seat, tired.
When he first heard the request from the Fire Sword Team, he thought they were joking with him.
Surprisingly, he received first-hand information from the Fire Sword Team themselves.
Tapping his finger on the table, old man Tucker fell into contemplation. "Who could be so daring?" About the
Fire Sword Team, he knew the leader had a scary background. If it is possible, he can easily dig out information about them.
But by doing so, he will offend the other party. Even old man Tucker has a vague feeling that they have something to do with the bandit hunting mission.
But these are all just his own assumptions. It can't be trusted without evidence. Even if he gets something, he will think twice before acting against the other party.
Right now, their eastwood company has got a good opportunity to befriend the Fire Sword Team leader. They don't have any trouble, just proving them with information is enough. Old man Tucker believes they will remember their help.
Suddenly, old man Tucker stopped tapping the table. A good idea came to his mind. Other than the Fire Sword Team, the other four teams also have members with strong backgrounds.
It's different for strangers. He doesn't know whether any such Warriors have entered the city recently.
His men were staring at the top 5 teams. If there were any new developments, their captain would quickly inform him.
Old man Tucker decided to collect information about the strangers. He feels there is a possibility of a new powerful team entering their city.
Then he also thought about contacting the manager of the City Lord Mansion. If he gathers the information about the new bandit hunting team list, it will also be helpful for him.
But deep in his heart, old man Tucker didn't want to do this. Last time, his east wood company bled heavily in order to collect information from the City Lord Mansion.
This time, he is sure that they will suffer further. But in order to befriend the Fire Sword team, old man Tucker decided to visit the City Lord Mansion personally.
After gaining some clarity, Old Man Tucker told his grandson Lewis to take care of the office.
Ten minutes later,
Old Man Tucker's air car landed in front of the City Lord Mansion. He stepped out of the air car and walked towards the gate.
Seeing his appearance, the city guard immediately recognised him. They allowed him inside without making any fuss.
Soon, old man Tucker strides towards the manager's office. He came here without informing the other party. I don't know if the manager is available or not. With a frownful face, he walked up to the front desk.
The assistant working behind the desk immediately recognised Tucker Nelson.
Perceiving his glance, old man Tucker said, "I'm here to meet your manager." Go and inform him. "
Hearing that, the assistant nodded and quickly walked away to inform the manager.
Seeing that, a slight glint flashes in his eyes. He muttered, "Looks like the manager is here."
Dispelling the thoughts, he shifted his gaze towards the main building. A strange worry occupied his heart. He didn't know what the City Lord was doing.
"If the City Lord had executed half of his responsibility, the city wouldn't have suffered this much," Old Man Tucker muttered to himself.
"What are you babbling about?" The manager's voice sounded from behind.
Hearing that old man, Tucker's face turned ugly. He was stunned by his sudden arrival. "Ha... Ha...
Ha.. Manager Lawrence, I'm just thinking about our City Lord," Old Man Tucker said with a laugh.
The Manager frowns. No one dares to address him by his name except the City Lord.
Since he was aware of the identity of the old man Tucker, he didn't mind it.
The manager, Lawrence, greeted him inside his cabin. After taking their seats, both of them looked at each other.
The manager, Lawrence, has guessed something in his heart. He knew old man Tucker came here for the bandit hunting mission's name list.
"Mr. Nelson, I'm afraid I can't help you with information anymore," Mr. Lawrence declined in a polite tone, even before Old Man Tucker opened his mouth.
Hearing that old man, Tucker chuckled. He is familiar with the same old routine. He knows unless he offers something valuable, this guy won't even react.
"I'm ready to transfer 5 million credit points," Old Man Tucker said.
Hearing that the manager, Lawrence's expression moved a little. But still, he kept his face expressionless.
Seeing that old man, Tucker said, "Tck! Alright, 10 million credit points. If you aren't satisfied, I'm going to leave. "
"Deal!" The manager, Lawrence, said with a grin.
Heading that, old man Tucker said in his heart, "The entire City Lord Mansion is corrupted."
