A few days later, in South Africa, on the other side of the Earth, 22 people of different skin colors and languages, arriving from the Middle East, South Arica, North Arica, and other regions of Africa, gathered at the sa location.
Initially, they tested each other, but once they realized they were all there for the sa purpose, they began to relax their guard and quietly waited in their respective places.
However, their wait did not last long. Five minutes after the last person arrived at the target area, their communicators received the sa ssage.
“All personnel imdiately assemble 500 ters ahead in the target area. You still have the chance to withdraw if you do not wish to join; you may leave imdiately.” After this ssage was displayed, their communicators showed a map with two flashing points: the red marks indicated their current locations, and the green mark indicated the target area where Wu Hao’s spacecraft was parked.
Looking at their communicators, the individuals did not exchange greetings. Instead, they maintained a certain distance from each other and started moving toward the direction indicated by the communicators.
Among the 22 people, who ca from 8 different countries, there were two from ****. However, their backgrounds differed: one was an elite mber of a **** special forces unit, while the other was a professional assassin trained from childhood by an assassin organization.
The elite mber from the **** special forces unit was the recently hired rcenary Lone Wolf Li Qing. Initially, Li Qing joined with a trial mindset, but over the next few days, he found that the Black Vulture organization recruiting him had intelligence capabilities even more terrifying than the CIA, which claid to be the most pervasive intelligence agency in the world.
Thus, having nothing left to lose, Li Qing did not hesitate further.
The other person, nad Ying Long, was more unique. He was the top assassin in the world, ranked third, and his codena was Ying Long. As for his original na? Could soone raised from childhood by an assassin organization have an original na?
The answer was definitely no!
Ying Long, as a mber of the world’s third-ranked assassin organization, was the only one rated SS-class, the highest rank. He was selected by the Intelligence Brain because, in his nearly ten-year career, he had only targeted drug lords, gang bosses, and political figures, never using any ans other than necessary. Unlike other assassins who would stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
In addition to Ying Long’s personal integrity, another important factor was his desire to leave his current assassin organization and personally destroy it.
Ying Long had such thoughts because, six months ago, he accidentally discovered so confidential files from twenty years ago about the assassin organization. These files were originally ant to be destroyed but were seen by him.
These docunts were about the organization’s ruthless thods of recruiting and training children to expand its power globally.
Among them was his own story. His background was quite brutal. His family had been killed by the founder of this assassin organization, and he had been taken in as an orphan and trained to beco a cold-blooded assassin.
When Ying Long learned about his origins, he initially intended to kill the founder of the organization, who was now his adoptive father. However, he held back, realizing that while killing his elderly adoptive father would not be difficult, escaping afterward would be.
Moreover, he wanted to annihilate the entire organization, so Ying Long remained patient and began secretly gathering his own forces.
Previously, he had always worked alone within the organization, but in the past six months, he had changed his approach. To gather strength, he started recruiting from the organization and preparing secretly outside.
At this point, he received a recruitnt invitation from the Intelligence Brain. Initially, he did not intend to respond, but he found the intelligence capabilities of the other party too formidable. Thus, he tentatively asked the Intelligence Brain: “If I join you, can you help destroy the Greedy Wolf Assassin Organization?”
The Intelligence Brain was initially surprised by Ying Long’s question but knew that Wu Hao’s power could indeed destroy not just assassin organizations but even powerful national regis if he wished.
The information about the Greedy Wolf Assassin Organization was already known to Zero through previous investigations. The organization, ranked third globally, was the only independent assassin organization not tied to any family, established over thirty years ago.
Thus, the Intelligence Brain gave Ying Long a definitive answer: “Join the Black Vulture Legion, and the Greedy Wolf Assassin Organization will cease to exist.”
With the Intelligence Brain’s confirmation and its powerful intelligence capabilities demonstrated, Ying Long, though still sowhat skeptical, decided to co to South Africa as instructed.
Although he had spent six months gathering forces and forging alliances, his collected strength was still insufficient for his goals. So, it was better to first join the Black Vulture Legion and see what happened.
Besides Li Qing and Ying Long, who had different motives and mindsets for joining, the other 20 mbers from various countries had similar mindsets and objectives.
So were motivated by the financial incentives offered by the Intelligence Brain, while others were attracted by the potential to beco stronger. Despite their varied reasons, their current goal was the sa: to head toward the target area designated by the Intelligence Brain.
For these 22 well-trained individuals, a distance of 500 ters was not significant. They quickly arrived at a point a hundred ters from the target area.
There, they saw through the dim light of the sky an advanced-looking aircraft parked among the grass.
Seeing this, everyone understood that this was the target area indicated by the communicator and that boarding this aircraft would take them to the location of the so-called Black Vulture Legion.
Soon, as the 22 people arrived one after another next to the aircraft, the door at the back of the spacecraft opened. The shape of the spacecraft resembled futuristic designs imagined by countries around the world: a flat, wide body with very narrow wings on each side.
