Chapter 140: Surprise attack?

At an alarming rate, several low-level nobles of the Basement Organization had been moved from place to place.

Their traces were left in the city, and a clumsy attempt was made to hide them.

Meanwhile, Matthew Dietrich was sitting next to Reagan Cooper and the two Army Generals in the mansion to the side where these nobles were working.

"Matt, what did you manage to find?" Reagan asked, unable to hold her curiosity.

Matt smiled as he shook his head.

"Some interesting stuff. The fish are in a hurry and think they can bite off more than they can chew, as apparently, some things are going wrong on their sides. They will be moving shortly, so be prepared to move as well. We'll get some exercise tonight." Matt replied vaguely, without giving them much information.

From what he had discovered, the hostility between the Basement organization and the enemy organization was because the enemies had raided numerous centers where the Basement raised orphans and needy people.

At first, the Basement organization was a large charitable organization of the Kingdom that was engaged in that kind of thing. But that organization started destroying them and murdering children left and right.

That created deep enmity with them, to the point that they began to dedicate themselves solely to investigating them and chasing them down to kill them. Even so, that organization was simply too powerful, so their attempts were seen as childish.

But Basement was always in the organization's sights because, being such a weak organization, they dared to stand up to them, and they did it in a way that even surprised them.

That is why they want to exterminate them, and so they could also find out where the last orphan centers Basement owns are.

Although no one understands why they are looking for so many orphans or corpses.

However, the powerful people in the organization don't tend to move often unless something serious happens.

And this time, that was the case.

Philip Baker was desperate because he had lost something essential and needed to find it. After all, the meeting that will take place shortly is of utmost importance, and without that 'something', he would not be able to participate. Or else he needed to murder a lot of Basement in order to exonerate himself from his mistake of losing it.

That's why Matt decided to use these basement nobles and their relatives to lure this guy in and trap him.

Once a guy as powerful as Philip Baker fell into their hand, the information he would give them would be incredible.

As Matt immersed himself in his thoughts, he didn't take his eyes off the mansion next to him.

Still, he didn't reveal himself either.

And the three guys beside him were a little nervous, not knowing what they would encounter later.

'Hehe, looks like my mistake won't be punished...' He thought, realizing that a beautiful opportunity presented itself before him.

He didn't need to think about why this guy was here; why would he need to think about nonsense? It was enough for him to be here and such easy prey.

He had come with only two, but it was enough.

Everyone here was so weak that they were in his hand.

And this time, he was not going to make the same mistake.

So, he smiled.

"Matthew Dietrich, I don't know how the hell you got in here, but thanks for coming..." He said, smiling, and then jumped at high speed on Matt.

"It's time for you to go fulfill your destiny!" he shouted.

But just then, he stopped dead in his tracks as soon as he saw something in Matt's hands.

"You... How did that get to you!?" he shouted in shock.

And Matt smiled, "So if it was this that had you so desperate." He replied.

Philip Baker frowned and scoffed a little.

"I see. The fact that you could run away on that occasion wasn't just luck or mere coincidence. You are quite capable. But it's a pity that you get too smart all the time. Let's see what you can do against absolute strength." He growled, unleashing all his power simultaneously as the other two behind him.

This vampiric power slammed from side to side and pushed the nobles present, who were trying to do crazy things backward into slamming into the walls.

It was such a tremendous power that Matt had to defend himself quickly, but he was still pushed back slightly. It was an explosion of combined power capable of affecting even powerful people.

But a voice came before those guys could move.

"Philip Baker, you were found a traitor to the Kingdom. Therefore, it is time for you to pay your sentence!" shouted Reagan Cooper as he unleashed all his power and broke through the mansion's roof, falling on Philip Baker and his companions.

At the same time, the other two Army Generals unleashed their power and jumped on Philip Baker, who could not react before being hit hard by those three guys who fell from the ceiling.

It wasn't that he couldn't do anything against those levels of power; it was simply that they had come from an unexpected place and at an unexpected time for him, and they attacked him through his blind spot.

Philip Baker had nothing to do but look up in shock.

"Reagan Cooper..." He said in surprise and anger.
