As Siyan typed on the keyboard, a bunch of weird, garbled codes jumped out of a small black box. Even Ma Choi Jun and the rest who were sitting next to Siyan and staring at the computer without blinking did not understand what this bunch of garbled codes meant at all, let alone Xiao Zheng who was on the other side of the phone.
"Phone." Siyan looked serious as he pouted his lips at Ma Choi Jun.
Ma Choi Jun understood and passed the phone to Siyan's ear, acting as the operator.
"Brother, I've investigated all the A-rank missions in the industry for the past three months." Siyan stared at the garbled codes that kept popping up on the computer with a serious look. His voice was deep.
A-rank missions were usually carried out by the corresponding A-rank assassins. Occasionally, there were assassins who skipped levels to accept missions, but they either died tragically in the mission or they became famous after a single battle.
When Xiao Zheng assassinated Fox Hunter's founder, Jones, he accepted an S-rank mission as an A-rank assassin. From then on, he became an S-rank king assassin in the industry and successfully became the world's No. 1.
"Tina accepted missions again?" Xiao Zheng frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"Yes. Sister Tina has carried out a total of five A-rank missions in the past three months. She's received a total of 80 million USD, "Siyan mumbled with a bitter smile at the corner of his lips. "If that's the case, Sister Tina's pay has increased again."
"Get to the point." Xiao Zheng was worried about Tina's safety, so he was not interested in whether she had increased her reward or not.
Siyan nodded lightly while his hands were still typing on the keyboard. "Although A-rank missions are highly confidential, I can search for them quickly. As for S-rank missions, each of them has gone through a few layers of encryption. Give me some time. "
S-rank mission?
Not only Xiao Zheng, but even Ma Choi Jun and the rest had their hearts in their throats.
'Sister Tina accepted an S-rank mission?!'
The first one to exclaim was none other than Houzi who had accompanied Xiao Zheng on an S-rank mission before. "Is Sister Tina crazy?! She went to carry out an S-rank mission alone? Why didn't you inform us in advance? "
Ma Choi Jun and the rest looked terrible as well. They were deeply worried about Tina.
"The A-rank mission isn't too difficult for Sister Tina. Since even Boss couldn't contact Tina, I could only try my luck. Choose from the S-rank missions, "Four-eyes said with pursed lips.
In fact, ever since Siyan found out that all the A-rank missions that Sister Tina had accepted had been completed, he began to worry that Sister Tina might have accepted an S-rank mission, which was why she did not pick up Xiao Zheng's call.
"It's cracked." Siyan wiped the sweat on his forehead, pushed up his bulky glasses, and said to Xiao Zheng on the other side of the phone. "Brother. Currently, there were three S-class missions issued. One had yet to be claimed, while the other two had already been claimed. The status is' in execution '. "
In execution, it meant that the mission had not succeeded, but it had not failed yet. As the level of the mission increased, the duration of the mission would increase as well. For an S-rank mission, the employer would give at least a month's time.
One should know that most of the missions in the industry were assassinations. Making a person disappear or die in public was not as simple as what was portrayed in movies and TV shows. One could just rush over with a gun and kill or cripple the target.
As a professional assassin, the first step before carrying out a mission was to research the target's identity, background, address, and living habits. After understanding all the information of the target, the second step was to come up with an assassination plan. Where to do it? How to do it? What kind of weapon to use? These were all things that a professional assassin had to consider before carrying out a mission.
Of course, the third step, which was also the last step, was to figure out how to escape unscathed.
Professional assassins were not like those gangsters or gangsters in the market. They were the most professional in the industry. The price was high, and the service quality was incomparable to those amateur assassins.
Professional assassins did not do one-off business. They made a living and made a name for themselves. Therefore, not only did they have to complete every mission with flying colors, but they also had to escape unscathed and protect their own lives.
If the target died, they would live. This was the entire process of a mission. If they died tragically during the mission, how could it be considered a success?
Therefore, every time they carried out a mission, professional assassins would carefully summarize the entire process and dissect every detail in detail. They were not allowed to make low-level mistakes. Because in this line of work, every small accident could cause irreparable losses. And being captured by an assassination target was the greatest humiliation for a professional assassin. At the same time, it was also the employer's biggest worry.
Therefore, for an employer, they would rather spend several times or even dozens of times more than an amateur assassin to hire a professional assassin. It was all for a high return and low risk.
When Xiao Zheng and Houzi assassinated the Fox Hunter, they spent a whole week surveying the terrain, grasping the target's information, and — — the escape route afterward.
"Which two missions are being carried out?" Xiao Zheng asked in a low voice.
Assassination was not a battle between ordinary experts. It was not even like the battle between the peerless experts like Xiao Zheng and Hussain. The battle between the strong was a one-on-one battle. There was no need to consider any factors such as the geographical environment or physical condition. But assassination could face all kinds of risks and accidents at any time.
For example, the target might know in advance that someone was plotting against him and send a large number of gunmen to fight back. They might even set up a trap and wait for the assassin to fall into it. Then, they could capture all of them in one fell swoop.
Assassination didn't just rely on force. It also relied on wisdom, patience, and even scheming!
Back when they were hunting Jones, didn't Xiao Zheng almost fail to escape? He was almost surrounded by a large wave of gunmen and turned into a sieve?
No matter how strong an individual's martial prowess was, it wasn't invulnerable to swords and spears, and it wasn't invulnerable to water and fire.
"One of them was to assassinate the governor of an economically powerful state. The bounty was 50 million USD. According to the information, it should be a partisan battle, "Siyan explained in detail.
Xiao Zheng roughly analyzed and asked, "What about the other mission?"
Siyan paused and couldn't help but gasp. He said in a low voice, "Assassinate the leader of the Vatican!"
Xiao Zheng's heart sank when he heard that. He asked, "Assassinate the leader of the Cardinal College?"
"Yes —" Siyan said bitterly, "In layman's terms, it's to assassinate the leader of the cardinals, the second most important person in the Vatican, second only to the Pope."
Xiao Zheng's heart sank to the bottom of a pond.
What was the Cardinal College?
A cardinal was what people often referred to as a cardinal. And the Cardinal College was a group formed by the cardinals. Its main function was to assist the Pope in handling the affairs of the Church. They even had the power to directly elect the Pope. And the leader of the Cardinal College was deeply trusted and respected by the Pope.
Wouldn't the risk of assassinating such a person be a hundred times more difficult than assassinating the governor of an American state?
Ma Choi Jun and the others felt a chill. They instantly fell into endless silence and — despair!
