Chapter 502 - "The Golden Scale Force"
"Boss, our family is under attack!"
That sentence triggered Ainsley’s nightmare about the first invasion that the Sloan Family got a few months ago.
In that instant, Ainsley held her breath. Her mind got dizzy for a little while.
"What...what do you an?" The baby forced herself to speak calmly. She also didn’t put the call on loudspeaker, so her people weren’t alard yet.
’Calm down, calm down. Maybe this isn’t a military invasion like before...’
The caller, one of the 9 generals, imdiately elaborated on the news.
"It’s like this, boss. We were patrolling the main territory when we caught sight of suspicious people lurking around..."
"Then?"
"Then, when we went to chase after them, we discovered that there were so acidic and poisonous instances on the ground...it spread fast and even affected a lot of areas..."
Ainsley gripped the phone tighter. She gnashed her teeth in silence.
It’s the golden scale gang! It must be them!
"Any other damages?" Ainsley asked in a soft voice but her chilling cold tone couldn’t mask her current emotion.
Jorden, the one called ’the Jupiter’, one of the 9 generals, took a deep breath before continuing his reports in a hoarse voice.
"W-we imdiately checked the other territories and found the soil and the crops were ruined. The water source was also contaminated with poisons."
"The water source?"
"Yes. The river, the well, the pond...everything."
Ainsley’s heart couldn’t help but ache a lot as she listened to the reports. Sweat started to drip down her face as she glanced at her people, who didn’t know anything about this yet.
"Are there...any victims?"
"Thankfully, no. It was midnight, and the villagers were asleep. Our mafia mbers also didn’t know about this. Only us, the patrol guards, discovered the problem..."
"Hmmm, you said our family is under attack...you an this, right? Attacking our territories but in secret?"
"Yes, boss, that’s what I an. This general thinks that soone or a force is behind the whole thing...so this general said that we are under attack."
Ainsley couldn’t help but hold her breath. Indeed, they’re under attack.
"Did you catch any of the suspicious people?"
Ainsley secretly hoped she could catch at least one of them to know more about the golden scale gang and why they did this to the mafia gangs.
Are they truly from the governnt?
Unfortunately, Jorden shook his head.
"I’m sorry, boss. We can’t catch even one of them...they are too fast, and they’re all assassin-type ability users. It’s hard to detect them in the first place."
It was why Jorden even suspected whether these people showed up only to bait them or sothing.
Why would the patrol guards suddenly discover so suspicious people when they could clearly hide their traces perfectly?
Jorden shared his thoughts with Ainsley before softly asking in a low tone.
"How is it, boss? We have notified the supre elder too, and now we are trying to restore the damaged territories, but the mysterious force..."
"Hmm, yes, their action is indeed suspicious. Be careful...maybe they use this matter as bait to create a bigger problem or sothing, purposely diverting our attention."
Ainsley held her throbbing head and frowned. At the mont, she was too tired and sleepy to think, but she forced herself to be awake.
"F-for now, check all of our territories, including t-those outside the inner area. R-report...uh...the damage...and clean them up if you can. If you can’t...I’ll think– of a way."
"Alright, boss. We will also collect the poison and acidic instances so that you can see them."
"Good. For now, prioritise...the water source. Make sure...no one drinks from the contaminated source...okay?"
"Okay, boss."
"Good. I’m...on my way back. You can announce a mission...to the mafia mbers to...help you with the case. However, don’t...don’t alert the villagers yet."
"Sure. We will be waiting for you, boss."
Ainsley’s calm and collected way of handling the problem secretly took Jorden by surprise. However, he didn’t show it and faithfully listened to Ainsley’s order.
Once the two cut the call, Jorden imdiately went to the mission hall to submit a new mission for the mafia mbers.
It was still 1 a.m in the morning, but it didn’t matter. The mission would grant many contribution points for the mbers!
While Jorden and the others at the mansion worked hard to solve the sudden trouble,
Ainsley took her ti informing her people despite feeling so sleepy that she might suddenly fall asleep.
The baby pinched her thigh to remain awake while explaining the trouble to her people.
Once she finished, Jevon was the first one to react.
"The Golden Scale Gang...they are way too suspicious! Why are they doing this? It’s as if they only want to annoy us..."
Damaging the territories, the rice fields and the water sources weren’t that harmful to the family, but low and mid-rank mafia families could suffer a lot from this.
Thankfully, Ainsley’s family was established enough to withstand the pressure.
"I agree with Jevon. Their way of attacking us is strange. It’s as if they’re only warning us or sothing..." Alvaro couldn’t help but chip in.
"Still, to ruin the soils, the rice fields, and the water sources...our family is in trouble. If another mafia gang attacks us at this ti, we will be done for."
Marietta spoke solemnly, expressing her worries. It was actually one of Ainsley’s worries, so the baby couldn’t help but respond.
"We can use Godzwila to protect us in an elgency.."
The baby already secretly pocketed Godzilla into her dinsion bracelet before riding the carriage.
"For now...let’s fwind a way to repail our damage..."
But, what should we do?
