Chapter 279: Legion of Flame Surge of Aurora Citadel
Cason had a gun pressed against his head, and he didn't dare to move.
Although he was ranked second on the assassin list, everyone present was a top-tier assassin, and they all could stand a chance against him in a one-on-one fight.
"Black Dragon, what do you mean by this?" Cason roared with a stern face, "I was honest with you, even made you the leader of the Shadow Syndicate, and now you turn against me?"
Larry stood up, looking indifferent, and said calmly, "I don't trust you. You're too scheming. From the moment you arrived in Sunset City, you've been plotting against me, and are you trying to use me?"
"I am not."
Cason shouted, "I'm serious. I just want to save Alden. Alden has been kind to me. Without Alden, I would have been dead long ago. To save Alden, I would do anything."
"Kill him."
Larry said calmly.
Then, he turned and walked towards the door.
At this moment, Cason was scared.
He was the second-ranked assassin on the list and had never been afraid since his debut, not knowing what death was like.
"Black Dragon, I know something. I'm willing to trade this information for my life."
Larry stopped, turned around, looked at the sweat-covered, terrified Cason, and asked calmly, "What information?"
Cason hurriedly said, "Alden, he's the founder of the Shadow Syndicate. Over the past thirty years, he has amassed a lot of wealth. He's very rich. He even built an underground chamber in the Summer Nation, where he buried all his accumulated wealth."
"I'm not interested."
Larry said indifferently, "You know, I was once the Black Dragon of Southwild, wielding the Sword of Justice. Do you think I lack money? Money to me is just a string of empty numbers."
Cason said anxiously, "This is different. It's not just money; it's gold, jewelry, priceless antiques."
Larry turned to leave.
As soon as he turned, Fire Phoenix fired the gun.
Cason fell into a pool of blood.
According to Larry's plan, he intended to recruit Cason.
But he didn't expect Cason to call in some of the top ten assassins. With these assassins, Cason was no longer an asset.
Cason's subordinates were too scared to say a word.
Until Cason died, his subordinates knelt on the ground.
"Black Dragon, I am willing to submit."
"Please spare us."
Larry had little sympathy for these people.
Such people, living in the world, would only harm more people.
"Kill them all."
Larry said coldly, turning to leave.
Gunshots rang out in the room.
Soon, the people he had recruited came out.
"Larry, it's all done."
"Good."
Larry nodded.
At this moment, a group of people approached from a distance.
They were all dressed in black suits, holding weapons.
Larry could tell from their movements that they were soldiers, only not in uniform.
Soon, over a hundred people appeared in front of the house, surrounding them.
"Black Dragon?"
The leading man saw Larry standing in front of the house and frowned.
The middle-aged man looked serious and said softly, "Alistair, we've found Black Dragon."
In a secret chamber, Sunset City.
Through a micro camera, Alistair saw Black Dragon standing in front of the house and cursed angrily, "Damn Cason, how dare he trick me."
"Alistair, what should we do?" the leading man asked softly.
At that moment, another group of people rushed in from a distance.
"Drop your weapons and squat on the ground." A loud shout echoed.
The hundred people turned around and saw that they were surrounded by a dense crowd, all fully armed, and their faces changed.
These were the thousand Black Dragon Army soldiers Larry had brought from Southwild.
Last night, he had contacted Valerian, asking him to bring people over, lay low, and wait for action.
Valerian walked towards Larry and called out, "Larry."
"Good."
Larry nodded slightly.
In a secret chamber in Sunset City, Alistair saw the situation and took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, and ordered, "These are the Black Dragon Army soldiers Larry brought from Southwild. Don't engage with them. Adapt to the situation."
After giving the order, Alistair left.
Larry looked at the over a hundred people surrounded and said calmly, "Aurora Citadel, Legion of Flame Surge?"
The middle-aged man walked over, saluted, and said loudly, "Deputy commander of the Legion of Flame Surge, we heard that Black Dragon was captured, so, we came to rescue you. Are you okay?"
Larry smiled faintly, "I'm fine. What could happen to me? Go back and thank Alistair for me. Thank him for sending troops to rescue me. You handle the aftermath here."
Larry turned to leave.
The assassins he had recruited followed him.
These assassins were grateful, thankful they had followed Larry last night.
Otherwise, they would end up in bodybags today.
With the Black Dragon Army and the Legion of Flame Surge, even ten lives wouldn't be enough.
After leaving, Larry got into a car and sat in the back seat.
Valerian followed, handed him a cigarette, and asked, "Larry, are you just going to let those guys go? If you hadn't arranged things in advance, I believe the Legion of Flame Surge wouldn't have recognized you and would have shot you to death."
Larry said helplessly, "What else can I do? Kill them all? The Legion of Flame Surge is backed by Alistair, and they have national law enforcement privileges. If we clash with them, Alistair will say that I betrayed, and it will be hard to explain."
"You're still the smart one."
"Let's go back."
Larry took a deep breath.
Finally, this crisis was over.
Fortunately, nothing happened this time.
"Larry, what about those assassins?" Valerian asked hesitantly, "How do we arrange them?"
Larry thought for a moment and said, "Let's go back to Sunset City first. When we get back, I'll ask Free to arrange legal identity files for them. These people are real experts and will be very useful in the future."
"Okay." Valerian nodded.
"By the way." Larry remembered something and ordered, "Use the underground intelligence network to investigate Alden. I want all his information."
"Yes, copy that."
After Larry finished speaking, he didn't say anything more and closed his eyes to think.
After this incident, he was almost certain that Alistair wanted him dead.
He was puzzled. He was no longer the commander of Southwild and posed no threat to Alistair. Why did Alistair still want him dead?
At this moment, he began to suspect the highest leader of the Summer Nation, the most powerful figure of the entire nation.
Last time he went to Aurora Citadel, although he reached an agreement with the highest leader of the Summer Nation, the highest leader wanted to use him to intensify the internal conflicts within the government for a reform.
Now he felt that he was also a target for elimination.
Even though he had resigned, the Sword of Justice was still there, and the Black Dragon Army still followed his orders.
The Black Dragon Army guarded the border of Southwild, and Southwild was too special. Perhaps only his death would put the highest leader of the Summer Nation at ease.
"Hopefully, it's not what I think."
Larry sighed.
