After hearing Sophia's description, Xiao Zheng could not help but ask curiously, "Drop by 30%? Who can compete with us in this area? "
The Mercenary Association that Xiao Zheng had created used many of his business experiences. It could be said that it was the most comprehensive association with the most complete system and the most comprehensive benefits. In addition, there was the network and experience that the Fox Hunters had accumulated over the years. In the entire underground world, with the strong working together, it was very unlikely that there would be a huge crisis from the outside. It could only split from within.
But at the moment, the possibility of internal disintegration was zero.
Hence, Xiao Zheng was suspicious of Sophia's alarmist talk. He also had a look of curiosity on his face.
Seeing that Xiao Zheng did not believe her, Sophia rubbed her forehead in distress, "When I first received the data, I was also shocked."
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng lifted Sophia's snow-white chin and said with a frown, "It's not an artificial chin. How could it be so easily shocked? "
Sophia rolled her eyes at Xiao Zheng and continued, "But this is the truth. Furthermore, the other party is showing signs of expanding their territory. With regards to this, Houzi and the Mega Gun have already come up with a series of plans to counterattack. It is said that Houzi has personally carried out a few missions. It is to re-establish the situation. "
After a pause, Sophia sighed softly and said, "I am worried that Houzi is in too much of a hurry and will put himself in danger. Hence, I personally came to discuss this matter with you. "
"You have said so much, but you still haven't told me — who exactly is our competitor? Where did he get the ability to snatch the meat from the Mercenary Association and the Fox Hunters? "Xiao Zheng asked with a frown.
"Do you still remember the Heavenly Gate?" Sophia asked directly.
"Of course." A fierce look flashed in Xiao Zheng's eyes. "They are our competitors?"
Sophia nodded. "This group of people is practically a group of mercenaries that lead the market. No — from their actions, they are a group of regular troops that do not care about their lives! I wonder where Qiu Sheng gathered such a group of perverts. "
Xiao Zheng asked curiously, "I remember that you introduced the Elysium Gate before. Didn't they only have a few hundred people? How could they possibly steal our business? "
"Over a hundred people?" Sofia smiled bitterly. "That's just the tip of the iceberg. In fact, I even suspect that the so-called Elysium is a world-class troop with advanced equipment! They are comparable to the US Marine Corps! "
"So strong?" Xiao Zheng was surprised. "Did you collect any specific information about them?"
Sofia called for Nika, and the latter, wearing black-rimmed glasses, walked out of the study with a pile of documents in her arms. Before she left, she didn't forget to throw a flirtatious glance at Xiao Zheng.
Nika and Ruth worshiped this gentleman very much. If Sofia had not stopped them, they would have joined forces and swallowed Xiao Zheng alive.
Xiao Zheng skimmed through the information Nika gave him. After about ten minutes, Xiao Zheng couldn't help but finish the remaining half a glass of red wine. He clicked his tongue and said, "According to the information, the Elysium Gate is even more powerful than the Mercenary Guild."
"That's why Houzi couldn't sit still and personally carried out the mission," Sofia said hesitantly. "Xiao Zheng, I have another piece of news for you."
"Hmm?" Xiao Zheng raised his eyebrows. "Is there any other bad news?"
"Recently, I've discussed with the military several times," Sofia said with a serious expression. "I can feel that they are tough, and even fearless. As for the Elysium Gate, the military clearly knows some of the actual situation, but they did not provide me with any information. "
"You mean —" Xiao Zheng pursed his lips and asked. "The US military might be cooperating with the Elysium Gate?"
"It can even be said that if the US military chooses a side, they will support the Elysium Gate. Not the Fox Hunt, "Sofia said in a low voice.
"Can you find the reason?" Xiao Zheng asked straightforwardly. "The US military can gain benefits from the Fox Hunt. Could it be that they can also gain more benefits from the Elysium Gate? "
"Other than the issue of benefits. I believe that there is also the issue of a favor involved. It might even be the joint decision of a few veteran generals of the US military, "Sofia said meaningfully. "Of course, this is only my speculation."
Xiao Zheng shook his head, his brain quickly thinking of all kinds of possibilities.
Finally, his mind stopped on a completely blurry face that did not even have a fixed appearance.
After a moment of silence, he raised his eyes and looked at Sofia, "The favor you mentioned, is it related to the Zhao Family?"
Sofia saw that Xiao Zheng revealed the answer so quickly. On one hand, she was shocked by Xiao Zheng's terrifying information network, and on the other hand, she admired his powerful analysis ability. She nodded lightly, "I've asked Gandalf, and the answer he gave is exactly the same as your speculation."
"If there are no accidents, the head of the Zhao Family should have played a role in it," Sofia said slowly.
"In other words, the head of the Zhao Family has an extremely close relationship with the US military?" Xiao Zheng analyzed.
"Mr. Gandalf mentioned it before. The head of the Zhao Family has an extremely close relationship with the US military. He even has close contacts with a few US presidents, "Sofia said with her eyes narrowed. "A powerful existence that even Mr. Gandalf and Boss Justin are secretive about. If the Elysium Gate is really controlled by him, then this battle will be extremely difficult for us. "
After listening to Sofia's narration, Xiao Zheng's heart was heavy.
It seemed that the great man that Qiu Shou spoke of had finally made his move.
However, why would his first step be to target the Mercenary Guild and the Fox Hunt?
One must know that targeting them was equivalent to targeting Xiao Zheng.
In Xiao Zheng's view, he was not important enough for the head of the Zhao Family to personally teach him a lesson.
Of course, all of this was just the speculation of Xiao Zheng, Sofia, and Gandalf. Many of the information was very vague. Was it really Qiu Shou pushing behind the scenes, or was it really the head of the Zhao Family? It was still unknown for the time being.
However, one thing was certain. The Mercenary Guild and the Fox Hunt were indeed facing the biggest problem in history. If they were not careful, they could be replaced by the Elysium Gate. Thus, they would fall apart.
"I will talk to Mega Gun and the others in detail later. But for now, my personal opinion is not to make the situation bigger, "Xiao Zheng said with his lips pursed.
Not to make the situation bigger meant not to have too much gunpowder.
"So you want us to back off?" Sofia asked.
"Not back off." Xiao Zheng shook his head. "We have too little information at the moment. Extreme actions may cause the situation to go out of control. "
After a pause, Xiao Zheng asked, "Whether it's the Mercenary Guild or the Fox Hunt, what is their ultimate goal?"
"Of course it's profit," Sofia said.
"Can we create profit by fighting the Elysium Gate?" Xiao Zheng asked. "Even if you have the confidence to defeat the Elysium Gate, if the Elysium Gate really has the support of the Zhao Family and the military. That will be a long struggle. It is very likely that they will suck you dry. "
