"The fight was an accident. You know me, I won't take revenge." Hannes shook his head.
"Let me guess, he's the Black Phantom who's been very active recently. He's the only capable one among the newcomers in your organization."
Hannes was stunned. "So, it's the Black Phantom. Even though I'm retired and don't pay attention to the newcomers, someone has mentioned his name to me. This guy is not simple. Bennett, you've gained a capable helper this time."
Bennett smiled but didn't say anything. Just like what Hannes said, he also felt that he had found a treasure.
When he first met the Black Phantom, his codename was still Mr. Black, and he was only a Scorpion-level assassin. Although his strength was not bad, he was still far from the top level. He seemed to be his fan and even gave him gifts that he liked. Therefore, Bennett gave him some guidance. At that time, it was just a casual thing to do and he didn't pay much attention to Han Xiao.
However, in just a few months, Han Xiao had shocked the underground world with his battle results and jumped to the top ten of the assassin list, becoming the well-deserved trump card of the Blood Pact Society. Bennett was very shocked by Han Xiao's rapid growth.
Although they hadn't fought, Bennett could faintly feel that the gap between him and Han Xiao was shrinking rapidly.
With the potential of the Black Phantom, he would grow into a capable helper sooner or later, and he would not be alone. The cooperation between the Black Phantom and the Dark Net was in the honeymoon period, so Bennett attached great importance to him.
"Since he's your man, I want him to do something for us," Hannes said.
Bennett rejected. "The Black Phantom is not my subordinate, so I can't order him around. The most I can do is ask for his opinion."
Hannes pondered. "Okay, I hope to talk to him personally."
"That's not a problem."
The call ended.
Vernina was surprised. "You want a stranger to join? Although he's strong, we know nothing about him. "
"He's very strong. What's wrong with having one more helper? Plus, we don't need to keep what we're going to do a secret."
Gerian was the initiator of the operation, and he agreed with Hannes' decision. He snorted and said, "What we are going to unearth is a big secret. The three of us don't have enough people. I have collected information for many years before I found a clue. No matter what, we have to figure it out."
Hannes said earnestly, "You'll die of curiosity sooner or later."
…
At dawn, Han Xiao returned to the Dark Net Safe House. Golden Fox and Ghost Blade had not slept all night. Seeing him return, Golden Fox breathed a sigh of relief.
"The mission is complete?" Ghost Blade asked suspiciously. "Did you follow my plan?"
"Your plan is not feasible." Han Xiao shook his head and briefly explained the difficulties he had encountered during his infiltration. Ghost Blade's report had missed some details, and these details were extremely important.
After Han Xiao's explanation, Ghost Blade realized that there were still errors and loopholes. He thought that he had collected the most detailed information, but these missing details were all pointed out by Han Xiao. He suddenly felt very embarrassed.
Ghost Blade was originally very confident in his precise plan, but he realized that if he followed the plan, he would not be able to deal with the unexpected situation of the mission. Han Xiao, on the other hand, reacted on the spot and completed the mission smoothly. He acted as if he had just completed a small task.
The difference made Ghost Blade feel very defeated and embarrassed.
However, he realized that Han Xiao had no intention of blaming him at all. He did not care about what he thought at all. He was completely ignoring him. Furthermore, the truth was right in his face. Ghost Blade was embarrassed. He felt that Black Phantom did not care about what he thought at all.
"Provocation or respect, he doesn't care what I think." Ghost Blade was sullen. This feeling was like provoking someone, but that person simply treated him like air. He didn't even look at him. It was like punching cotton. Coupled with the difference in status and strength, it made him feel that his behavior of jumping up and down was very laughable.
The feeling of being ignored was very uncomfortable. Ghost Blade felt like he was superfluous, and his heart was filled with anxiety.
Although Han Xiao did not know the change in Ghost Blade's mentality, he could roughly guess. It was nothing more than arrogance and dissatisfaction. Then, he realized that reality had slapped him in the face and felt embarrassed. Han Xiao's heart was not affected at all.
Everyone had their own thoughts, childish and crazy. Everyone had their own thoughts, but as long as they did not act on it, it would always be a secret. Therefore, Han Technician did not care about other people's emotions and thoughts. It was even more meaningless than rimless glasses.
Regardless of whether Ghost Blade was dissatisfied with him or admired him, Han Xiao's mentality would not change at all. If one had to summarize the Great Mechanic Han's code of conduct, there was no better way to describe it than 'doing things his own way'.
This was the legendary stable aura.
Golden Fox pursed her tender red lips. She had mixed feelings.
The first time she saw Black Phantom was during the manor guard mission a few months ago. At that time, Black Phantom was just a Scorpion-level assassin, one level lower than her. But a few months later, she was still in the same place, while Black Phantom had risen to become the ace of the Blood Pact Society in a short time. He even had connections with the upper echelons of the Dark Net.
Golden Fox was very envious of Black Phantom's position, but she knew that she did not have the ability.
If she could sacrifice her body to get Black Phantom to back her up, Golden Fox was very willing to do it, but he was not interested in her.
But she could understand. What was wrong with a man being a little crazy?
Ignoring the conflicted Golden Fox, Han Xiao opened the safe and took out the equipment stored inside. There was no need to stay in Maple any longer after completing the mission. He was about to leave immediately, but his phone rang. It was a call from Bennett.
Han Xiao picked up the phone.
"I've done what you asked me to do. Although there was a small accident, the wooden target is fine."
"I know you won't fail. I have another thing for you." Bennett said, "The enemies you met during the mission were actually my friends. You might have heard of them. Hannes and Vernina, they were my contemporaries."
Han Xiao pretended to be surprised. "Oh, what a coincidence."
"You didn't lose? You weren't this strong when I first saw you." Bennett sounded surprised. "Your improvement speed is beyond my imagination."
"Are you calling to praise me?" Han Xiao said. "Continue, don't stop. I can still hold on."
"…" Bennett took a deep breath and suppressed the waves in his heart. "Hannes asked me to tell you that he wants to ask for your help. As for the previous conflict, it was just a misunderstanding."
"Ask for my help?" Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and he understood. The mission had come to him!
In a more direct way, he had fulfilled the prerequisites to trigger this mission. He had Legendary Points, a high enough relationship with the Dark Net, and was friends with Bennett. His level had reached the standard, so the hidden mission had come to him.
The use of Legendary Points and relationship with factions sometimes led to NPCs coming to ask players to complete missions. Usually, the difficulty was high, and the rewards were high.
The treatment of the mission coming to him was completely different from the treatment of the players who triggered missions everywhere. It was like the difference between asking for help and being asked for help.
Therefore, players liked attributes like Legendary Points, and the game experience was great.
"I can help, but I need to know the details." Han Xiao rolled his eyes and added, "Since they're your friends, they're my friends as well. Let's forget about this small conflict."
