Larry fell to the ground as soon as he finished his sentence. His face was blank and lifeless. `
Kieran raised an eyebrow.
He had not heard of the name Komden from the memories he had received.
However, the title of King of the Underworld was enough to explain everything.
"Sphendix has put a bounty on our heads!
So, what's the difference if we add Mr. G to the mix? "
Kieran asked calmly.
He needed to know more information about this Mr. G.
"Of course it's different!
If Sphendix rules the city during the day, then Mr. G rules the city at night!
If Sphendix rules the city during the day, then Mr. G rules the city at night!
If Sphendix had only put a bounty on our heads, we might have had a chance of survival. Now that we've got Mr. G on our heads, we really have no chance of survival! "
Riley looked like he was about to cry.
"Who said we don't have a chance of survival?"
Kieran could not help but shake his head when he saw that Larry had given up. His fear had taken over him, and he had fallen into despair. He had not realized the crux of the matter.
"You are the Shadow Stinger. Of course you have a way out!
"Even if you can't run away, both Sphendix and Mr. G are more than willing to accept your loyalty!"
But I'm different!
I'm just an informant! In the eyes of those two giants, I'm no different from a useless informant! "
Riley couldn't hold back her tears anymore and they flowed out as if she had touched her sore spot.
"Alright, put away your tears!"
It's not too late to cry when you're about to die!
Can't you see that we have a chance of survival? "
Kieran said in a low voice.
He did not want to see anyone crying, especially a man.
"Survival?
"Are you going to assassinate the higher-ups of Sphendix Financial Group?"
Don't even think about it! Sphendix's security is comparable to the military's. Even if you are the Shadow Stinger, you won't be able to do that! "
Larry was still scared after Kieran's reminder, so he did not realize the real meaning behind Kieran's words. `
"I'm talking about the relationship between Sphendix and Mr. G!"
Don't forget. You just found out from Creedo that the person who ordered him to cause trouble for Lerner was Mr. G! And this Mr. F * ck G is also looking for trouble with you because you unintentionally took in Lerner! This means that Mr. G cares about Leonard a lot! Or should I say, it's because of what Leonard has!
Similarly, Sphendix is after you because of the item in Lerner's possession. Let's put ourselves in Mr. G's shoes — Sphendix and Mr. G. What is the relationship between Mr. G and Sphendix?
"Even without Lerner, what's the relationship between Sphendix and Mr. G? Don't tell me that both sides are saints and have no ambition to unify this city! "
Kieran said bluntly.
As for what Riley had said about assassinating the higher-ups of Sphendix?
There was only one person in the top management of Sphendix: Sphendix.
Apart from having the infamous' Executioner 'Kailuark as his security consultant, this man also had nearly a thousand security guards protecting him and his company.
He had the infamous Executioner Kailuark as his security consultant, as well as thousands of security guards protecting him and his company. He did not think that he would be able to take on a thousand-man team with his current strength.
On top of that, it would be a thousand-man team that was as powerful as an army.
That was why Kieran had never thought about killing Sphendix when he knew how powerful his security guards were.
When Kieran made things clear, Larry finally came back to his senses.
"Sphendix and Mr. G have a grudge against each other! I've always heard about the news of their fight! "
"Therefore, it is impossible for them to cooperate!"
We still have a chance! "
Now that there was still hope, Riley quickly pulled himself together.
"But it's a fact that Sphendix has put a bounty on our heads!
"Mr. G might not be working with Sphendix, but if he could get rid of us, it would be a great boost to his reputation. He would also embarrass Sphendix. I'm sure he wouldn't mind!
That's not good for us!
"If we take advantage of the conflict between Mr. G and Sphendix, we could start a fight between Mr. G and Sphendix.
Larry cheered up and started to think of a way to get out of their current predicament, but he rejected the idea as soon as it popped up.
"No way! No way!
Sphendix and Mr. G have been fighting each other for a long time, so they must know each other. If we want to create conflict, misunderstanding, and start an all-out war, we won't be able to do it with just some petty tricks.
We need something more ruthless and intense. Assassinations! "
Larry's eyes lit up. "Assassinate one side and start a war!
We don't even need to start a war. The other side will intervene!
"In fact, we don't even need to initiate it. The unharmed party will intervene!"
But assassinating a few leaders should be a piece of cake for you, Kieran! " Larry looked at Kieran as he spoke, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Larry said, looking at Kieran with a hopeful gaze.
Larry's words were obvious, but Kieran shook his head.
Kieran shook his head.
"The two of them are behemoths. They're more concerned about their own interests than their personal lives!"
"Unless that person is the leader of these two behemoths!"
Otherwise, they won't be able to do anything. They won't be able to stir up any big waves! "
Moreover, doing so might very well anger Sphendix or Mr. G, and they might come after us with all their might! "
Kieran rejected Larry's suggestion with a reasonable reason.
As a matter of fact, given enough time, Kieran would not have minded taking the risk and trying out Larry's method.
Assassinating one or two leaders was not a big deal for these two giants. In fact, it might even make them happy.
Assassinating one or two minor leaders wasn't a big deal for the two gigantic organizations. In fact, more people would be happy about it.
Assassinating one or two leaders was not a big deal for these two giants.
But what if the small leaders died in batches?
The rest of them would be terrified.
The position that they had been fighting for would become a hot potato in an instant.
When that happened, it would be exactly as Larry had said. The unharmed side would make their move.
Right at that moment. Kieran would make his move on the unharmed side. If everything went smoothly, both sides would suffer heavy losses.
Coupled with some people who were fanning the flames and taking advantage of the situation, it was highly likely that the two behemoth-like organizations would vanish in a few days.
Do not overestimate human nature.
There might be no help in the hour of need.
There might be someone who would kick a man when he was down. There were plenty of them.
However, there was a prerequisite to this plan: enough time!
There might only be one boss in a behemoth organization, but there were many subordinates.
From the investigation to the setup, even with Larry's help, Kieran only had two weeks to complete the task, so it was hard for him to make ends meet.
Moreover, Kieran would not be completely free for the next two weeks.
He had to complete the Main Mission!
Maybe there would be some Sub Mission involved in the assassination.
But for some uncertain Sub Mission? Should he give up on the Main Mission?
Kieran did not want to do that.
As Kieran's attributes increased, if he failed the Main Mission and his highest attribute dropped by a level, it would be a heart-wrenching loss.
That was because it meant a lot of Points and Skill Points.
As Kieran's strength increased, the number of Points and Skill Points would increase.
For example, during his first dungeon run, the cost of upgrading a skill from Novice to Master had only been 3,000 Points and 2 Skill Points.
But now?
Upgrading from Expert to Master had cost Kieran 12,000 Points and 8 Skill Points.
If he wanted to upgrade his Intuition again, it would no longer be a matter of Skill Points. It would be Golden Skill Points.
That was almost equivalent to the income of a dungeon run.
Kieran did not want to bear such a loss, nor was he willing to bear it.
Moreover, Kieran had a more labor-saving method.
"Damn it! Those evil capitalists! "
"In other words, we have to assassinate either Sphendix or Mr. G?"
"How is that even possible?"
"They have so many guards, they could drown us with just a mouthful of spit from each of them!"
Kieran's reasoning easily convinced Larry, who was not willing to take the risk.
Larry couldn't help but curse, unwilling to give up.
"Even if I could assassinate Mr. G or Sphendix, I would still have to!
"I have to kill both Sphendix and Mr. G at the same time!"
Otherwise, Sphendix or Mr. G would have the chance to unify the city. No matter who became the ruler of the city, they would not let go of anyone who could threaten them!
Kieran emphasized the mistake in Larry's words.
Larry was stunned, but he quickly understood what Kieran was trying to say.
"What should we do?"
Larry looked at Kieran helplessly.
"Sphendix has put a bounty on our heads! I even killed the security consultant. It's going to be hard for us to get out of this!
But Mr. G is different!
"Of course, don't tell me that Credo is Mr. G's subordinate!"
Kieran joked.
"Credo? Of course not. He's a rule-breaker. No one likes him!
"Mr. Dumb G would have skinned him alive if it weren't for the fact that he would need his help at certain times.
But we will have to pay a huge price to get Mr. G to protect us!
You are the Shadow Stinger, so your strength is the best bargaining chip. As for me, I'm afraid I'll have to go bankrupt! "
Larry's face fell when he thought about the price he would have to pay.
"Damn it! If the item in Lerner's hands were in my hands, we wouldn't even need to pay a price for Mr. G to protect us! "
Larry could not help but feel regret.
If he could go back in time to a day ago, he would have spent a lot of money to hire real bodyguards to protect Leonard.
"Only you, me, and Sphendix know that Lerner's stuff is not with us. Mr. G doesn't know that!"
Moreover, Mr. G would never trust the Sphendix Organization! "
Kieran smiled at Larry as he told him the plan he had come up with.
"Are you saying..."
Larry's eyes widened as he looked at Kieran. He was shocked by Kieran's words.
"We are now Mr. Smile G's collaborators!"
Remember, we are collaborators! We are not asking for protection!
"That's because we have something that Mr. Dumb G wants!"
Kieran said.
