Every time something was hyped up, it would attract the attention of countless people. As more and more people paid attention to the battle between Kaede Sato and Durant, an event that the public loved to watch started to appear.
That's right, this event was a gambling event. No one knew when it started or who started it, but a gambling event that revolved around the battle between Kaede Sato and Durant started to spread throughout ShuiJing City.
Furthermore, there was an invisible mastermind behind this gambling event. In just one night, the entire internet in Fengyuan City was talking about this event.
Because of this, the number of people participating in the gambling event kept on increasing, and the bets started to snowball.
"Have you found out who set up this bet in secret?"
The next day, in one of the offices on the top floor of the ShuiJing City Alliance Building, a middle-aged man asked a young subordinate in front of him.
"I'm sorry, this happened too suddenly. Our internet security department is unable to find out who the mastermind is. We only managed to find a few representatives."
"However, according to the analysis of some experts in the headquarters, this event is most likely the work of the Risk Fund. This kind of event that involves a huge battle is most likely to attract these vultures."
Faced with his superior's answer, the young subordinate immediately lowered his head in shame, and then told him everything he knew.
This middle-aged man was no stranger to the Risk Fund. He had even interacted with them a few times. Thus, he knew how deep the water behind this loan shark organization was. This matter was not something that a small local authority like him could decide on his own.
"Okay, I understand. You can leave now."
Thus, after knowing that this gambling event could be planned by the Risk Fund, he pondered for a while and said to the young subordinate.
The young subordinate naturally obeyed and quickly left the room.
"Sir, this is what happened. What do you think we should do?"
After the young subordinate left, the middle-aged man immediately used the phone on the table to make a call. Then, he reported the situation to his superior and asked for the next step.
On the other side, on the top floor of the most luxurious hotel in ShuiJing City, the mysterious woman who had a secret meeting with Durant last night was called by her phone.
"Is it done?"
Just as the mysterious woman picked up the phone, a cold voice came from the other side.
"Don't worry, our Risk Fund is efficient. Your request has been completed. Now, all the internet platforms are talking about this. All the water armies are ready. As long as he loses this battle, his reputation will be ruined."
"However, you can't forget our contract."
Hearing this, the mysterious woman's lips curved slightly and replied confidently.
"As long as you ruin his reputation, I, Hei Sha, am a man of my words. The Hei Sha Pirates will listen to your orders for one year for free."
As soon as the mysterious woman finished her sentence, the person on the other end of the phone immediately answered and hung up the phone.
"Hmph, what a boorish fellow. But that's good too. This kind of idiot is easier to control. Through this idiot, our Risk Foundation will be able to reach deeper into the sea. It's time to change the monopoly of the marine team."
Seeing that the other party had actually hung up, the mysterious woman frowned and said with a displeased look on her face.
However, when she was about to put down the phone and go to the bathroom to wash up, the phone rang again, but this time, it was an unknown number.
Although it was an unknown number, the mysterious woman immediately pressed the answer button.
"It's me."
The moment the mysterious woman pressed the answer button, a dignified voice came from the other side of the phone.
"Lord Divine General, everything is ready. However, the matter is a bit big. The Risk Fund probably can't hide it from the alliance."
When the mysterious woman heard this voice, she immediately jumped up from the bed and replied with a respectful expression.
"It's okay. The Risk Fund hasn't appeared for a while. It's time to highlight its presence. We can't let the Magma Team and the Ocean Team take all the limelight."
"And the target this time is a bit special. The organization suffered a lot of losses several times. If we can use this matter to ruin his reputation and hinder his growth, it will be a good thing for the organization."
The person on the other side of the phone began to explain slowly.
"Since this person doesn't know what's good for him, let me deal with him. I promise to complete the mission."
When the mysterious woman heard this, her beautiful face instantly became extremely cold as she spoke with certainty.
"Shut up! You can't act on your own. I'm sure of your strength, but don't underestimate this person. This person's growth can only be described as legendary. Do you know how long it took him to grow to this height? "
"Less than a year. What a genius. It's a pity that he can't be used by us."
"Furthermore, this person has a very strong sense of danger, is extremely good at disguising himself, and his anti-detection ability is also very strong. If we really want to make a move on him, unless it's an esper trainer who's a level higher than him, there's a high chance that he'll escape."
"You also know that high-level espers are rare in this world. Once they make a move, it will definitely attract the attention of the alliance. Our organization is now being watched by the alliance, and this time, they are taking it more seriously than before. Unless it's a last resort, we must not expose such high-end combat power."
As soon as the mysterious woman finished speaking, the person on the other side of the phone immediately scolded her and explained to her again how terrifying the target was.
"Yes, we will follow the organization's arrangements."
The mysterious woman heard the scolding and immediately became obedient. However, there was still a hint of unwillingness in her voice.
"Don't worry. No matter how talented he is, he's just a lone wolf. He won't be much of a threat. Moreover, there are many talented people in this world, but there are very few who stand at the top."
"You don't have to belittle yourself. You being able to become a Heavenly King-level trainer before the age of twenty has already proven your potential. As long as you work hard, under the organization's training, you might be able to reach the top of the world in the future."
The person on the other side of the phone seemed to have noticed the unwillingness in the mysterious woman's heart and immediately comforted her with a gentle tone.
"I know, master."
The mysterious woman heard the gentle tone and praised her. Her face immediately showed a happy expression and replied.
A few minutes later, the mysterious woman and the other person ended the call. At this time, a large group of people wearing the same uniform came to the Shui Jing Dojo. The leader was Durant.
Compared to yesterday when he first heard about Kaede Sato's fame, he was now full of confidence as if victory was in his hands.
As the people from the Black Water Dojo entered the Shui Jing Dojo, a large number of spectators also began to quickly rush into the Shui Jing Dojo. After a while, the spectator seats in the center of the Shui Jing Dojo were filled with people.
"The Risk Foundation, huh? I thought it was going to be a battle, but I didn't expect it to become a fierce battle. Well, it's good. The battle is only interesting when it's challenging. It'll be too boring if it keeps on crushing them."
At the same time, in a room in the Shui Jing Dojo, Kaede Sato had just put down the communicator in his hand. After a slight helplessness, his expression turned into one full of fighting spirit as he said indifferently.
Just a moment ago, his old friend, Yuan Zhi, spoke to him.
