Hawk, Sea Horse, and Grizzly Bear appeared somber, their overwhelming killing intent was directed towards Peng Bird’s group, while their intense dissatisfaction was naturally towards General Hawan. Black Shark’s death had utterly enraged them.
"Third Brother, how’s the investigation going?" Hawk turned to Sea Horse and asked.
"Big Brother, no progress whatsoever." Sea Horse said helplessly, "Neither friends from the Underworld nor the hired hacker team were able to uncover which force issued the mission to kill us, and it’s even harder to find out how Peng Bird’s group took on this job."
This issue not only vexed Peng Bird’s true identity group but also kept the Poison Dragon rcenary Corps sleepless.
Sea Horse said troubled, "From all signs, the force targeting us planned ticulously for a long ti, leaving no trace, and after the fact, cut off all potentially exposing clues, creating great difficulty for our investigation."
"Our Poison Dragon rcenary Corps got to where we are by making plenty of enemies, yet we’ve remained standing due to our formidable strength. I just don’t believe that a re group like Peng Bird’s can handle us." Grizzly Bear scoffed, "We’re aware of Peng Bird’s operational thods; besides assassinating so targets from the shadows for profit, they offer nothing significant. But our Fifth Brother fell at the hands of such people—it’s a disgrace."
"Peng Bird’s group is not to be feared, but from the information revealed by the target, the seven exposed individuals are formidable, each one a top-notch assassin." Hawk pondered for a mont before speaking confidently, "Logically speaking, Peng Bird’s group wouldn’t dare challenge us, much less accept this mission. But contrary to our expectations, such events have occurred—it seems bizarre, forcing us to think harder about it."
"A few assassins are nothing to us; the real worry is the hidden mastermind who commissioned Peng Bird’s group, that is the true assassin." Grizzly Bear said coldly, "So, when dealing with Peng Bird and his n, be wary of other enemies."
The leaders of the Poison Dragon rcenary Corps racked their brains but couldn’t figure out that their rampant actions on the border of Huaxia Country led to this calamity—this layer of interest was beyond their consideration.
"The action team needs to prepare early to handle unexpected situations at any ti. I’m worried the enemy behind the scenes is using a diversion tactic. Black Shark is already dead, and White Whale has gone to Country M to pursue Peng Bird’s group. If the mastermind attacks our base during this ti, we have to be extra cautious and not let our guard down." Hawk instructed.
"If the enemy dares to co, we’ll ensure they don’t leave alive, with no resting place for the dead." Grizzly Bear was full of killing intent.
In fact, what they didn’t know was that the so-called mastermind and Ye Fan’s seven were self-directed and self-acted.
The real enemy they faced was only Ye Fan’s seven, not two different groups.
Although they suspected Peng Bird’s group’s actions, Hawk and the others believed Peng Bird’s group wouldn’t dare provoke them. Yet the facts in front of them left no doubt—their enemy was indeed Peng Bird’s group.
They couldn’t think on a deeper level or conceive that the visible enemy was a fake Peng Bird.
Hawk and the others didn’t regard Peng Bird’s group highly, focusing instead on the hidden force that commissioned their assassination. This consideration direction was correct, but they were destined not to encounter the hidden force, as the force wouldn’t take action. Only Ye Fan’s seven, using false identities, would complete the task of assassinating them.
"As the saying goes, know yourself and your enemy, and you’ll never be defeated in a hundred battles. But now, we don’t even know who our enemy is or their identity, which is a huge miscalculation." Hawk said powerlessly, "Looking at those with whom we have deep animosities and the forces capable of challenging us, there are only a few. We don’t know which one commissioned the assassination."
Unable to guess the enemy’s identity, they could only start from those forces with grievances—this was a breakthrough point.
Grizzly Bear said furiously, "I contacted many forces and mobilized all connections, spending a lot of money, yet found no evidence of any aggressive actions from forces we have grievances with. From this result, it seems the people targeting us are soone else. Maybe my investigation wasn’t thorough enough, and I didn’t find any useful information."
"Besides doubting the identity of the mastermind, the biggest question is Peng Bird’s group. Peng Bird and his n aren’t of the sa level as us, yet they dared to take on such a mission—it’s a suicide mission. But based on Peng Bird’s displayed combat strength, Peng Bird’s group is quite formidable and cannot be ignored." Hawk said calmly, "When did these shady assassins like Peng Bird gain such formidable combat power?"
"There are indeed many questionable areas, but we don’t have the luxury of ti to think too much now." Grizzly Bear said, "Second Sister has taken the Spine Team to hunt down Peng Bird’s group of seven. With the Spine Team’s assistance, Second Sister will surely achieve victory, eliminate the seven exposed enemies, and avenge Black Shark. With General Hawan’s help, we believe these seven rats won’t remain hidden for long and will be found. We need to focus on other possible erging enemies, and to avoid chaos, we must prepare well."
"Second Sister is ticulous and steady; eliminating the seven doesn’t pose any issue." Hawk showed no concern.
The three leaders were full of confidence, trusting White Whale completely. The Poison Dragon rcenary Corps’ ergency team, the Spine Team, was deployed, ensuring no problem was unsolvable.
Their strong belief in the Spine Team’s combat power left Hawk and the other leaders completely reassured.
"With General Hawan cooperating from the outside, there’s no need for us to worry. We just let Second Sister take action," Sea Horse pondered briefly, "We should now focus on the base to prevent enemy attacks on our stronghold, which is of utmost importance."
...
The real culprits causing disturbances among multiple forces, Ye Fan’s seven, were currently in a hotel.
They could sense the disturbances and waves they caused externally.
However, they didn’t mind at all; to them, it was like it had nothing to do with themselves.
"Instructor, we’ve been exposed." Yang Shu reported upon arrival, explaining the current situation.
