Chapter 423: Threat

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

“Lei… he is an interesting person…”

Very quickly, the higher-ups of White Pigeon Society received news from Paul. “Going to the Flor State to find trouble for the Roth Family?”

Within a small office, a few holographic silhouettes sat around a table and looked towards Old Paul who sat in the middle.

“That’s right… he claims to be after a piece of artwork, but did not reveal the name of the artwork. Eric Roth is a well-known collector and he has over 3,000 pieces of artwork from Middle Continent alone…”

“A 3rd Tier mutant… this is unfortunate!”

Another old man rested his chin on both of his hands. “If Lei is willing to tell us about the artwork, we can probably be the middleman… Even for Roth Financial Group, it would be a good deal for them to establish good relations with a 3rd Tier mutant in exchange for a treasured artwork of theirs.”

“I’m sorry… Lei is resolute in his decision… Furthermore, we know the traits of these tycoons. Once we get involved with them, we would have never-ending troubles…”

Another silhouette shook his head.

“That Lei…”

At this point in time, a white shirt man sitting in the centre started to speak. “Do we have information about him?”

“Nope! Just as we first encountered him, we have already sent our hackers to fish for information from the customs’ database. Unfortunately, Lei used a fake identity…”

Paul shook his head. “Also, our representatives in Middle Continent told us that they do not have information on this mutant!”

“Any 3rd Tier mutant with a force of the mind like this would forever be on the radar once it reveals itself… Since every country does not have information on it, does this mean that he is a newly-mutated mutant?”

The man in white shirt waved his hands. “Forget it… we shall place our priority on observing him. We shall provide him with information regarding the Roth Family, but will not stand on his side openly!”

“I understand!”

Paul nodded his head before disappearing.

“Lorita! How’s the questioning session going on?”

The man in white shirt glanced towards the silhouette on his right.

It was a 13 years old young lady in a black princess dress. With her appearance resembling a doll, anyone who would see her would not be able to hold themselves back from giving her a pinch on the cheeks.

“Yawn… It’s boring…”

Lazily, Lorita yawned. “I only scared him a little before being able to get him to reveal everything. It’s so boring!”

“This means the Demon Weapon Plan is true!”

“Yes!”

Lorita took out her lollipop and started to lick on it. Squinting her eyes, she continued. “Even yourself and the head of Black Man Society are only at the peak of the 3rd Tier. The theorized Demon Weapon will have the ability to break through the limits and is indeed worthy to be the final weapon!”

“Although we are very behind Chinese Country in terms of research about mutants, anything as dangerous as the Demon Weapon should not belong in this world. Furthermore, it is immoral to perform experiments on mutants!”

The society leader of White Pigeon Society came to a conclusion.

“We have no choice… Those generals in the Ministry of Defence keep harping on the fact that Chinese Country has a 4th Tier mutant, which makes the Golden Eagle Federation under serious threat…”

Another man on the left sighed. “Because of the fact that Jani had failed the previous time, we are now solely focusing on commencing the Demon Weapon Plan, even if it means cooperating with Black Man Society!”

“Where is the location of the laboratory?”

“It’s in Flor State, beneath the Flor Reservoir!”

The society leader of White Pigeon Society remained silent. “Flor State… could this be a coincidence?”

Flor State, Ivy City.

The was the greenest city in Flor State. Gardens decked the city and complemented the many mansions and buildings here.

Although Flor State was known for its manufacturing industry, there were not many factories in sight and was one of the safest cities in the entire Federation.

Therefore, many tycoons would prefer to stay here. Even those who stayed elsewhere would buy a few mansions here to spend their perfect getaway in this charming city.

Around these rich tycoons’ mansions were many bodyguards, drivers, nannies and maids, all of them in service of the tycoon’s families.

A poor man’s hell was a rich man’s heaven. This was such a place.

“In Ivy City, you can buy anything as long as you have the money!”

A gold-plated car stopped outside a five-star hotel. A young white lady walked out proudly and stood out from the rest.

The bellboys who stood at the door took a bow and their foreheads almost touched the ground.

A red carpet was rolled from the door to the car.

The young lady walked out and stretched her hand out.

‘That must be an important figure from an influential family or a tycoon…’

Under the plain sight of everyone, a yellow Chinese in a western suit walked out from the other side of the car.

Everyone was utterly stunned.

‘Could they have seen wrongly? How was this possible? How can a yellow Chinese have such a socio-economic status?’

Unfortunately, amidst their inner cries, their strict training made them pay equal respects to this guest and they were perfectly hospitable.

“Is this how it feels to be rich? It’s great!”

When they finally entered their suite, Lucy exclaimed loudly before starting to roll on the bed. Her face was filled with satisfaction.

“It’s a pity… they are still too racist.”

Fang Yuan shook his head. “To them, they believe that a yellow Chinese cannot have such a status and are not worthy of riches and respectable treatment… Also, why are you following me?”

He looked at Lucy and rolled his eyes.

After gaining satisfaction from rolling on the bed, Lucy pitifully took out a document. “Eric is the head of the Roth Family. At any moment, he will be protected by a 3rd Tier mutant beside him. You must be careful… oh, wait, the one who has to be careful will never be you!”

After all, she had witnessed Fang Yuan destroying Iceman Roger with brute force and still had not gotten over it.

“If I get physical, will you stop me?”

Fang Yuan spoke in a mocking tone.

“Unless your destruction is too much to the point that you will harm other civilians!”

Lucy spoke solemnly. “Also, according to the order from our society leader, I will only provide you will information and will not directly help you…”

“Ding dong!”

The doorbell rang.

“Room service? I don’t think we requested for it, right?”

With suspicion, Lucy picked the receiver up and her expression changed. “It’s the people from the Roth Family looking for Lei… I did not betray you!”

She broke into cold sweat and knew that it surely had to be a member of the White Pigeon Society that let the cat out of the bag.

“Alright! I know it’s not you!”

Fang Yuan shrugged his shoulders and squinted his eyes before opening the door. “Please enter!”

“Hello!”

A man in a suit wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses entered respectfully. “I am a lawyer and my name is Cyril. I serve under the Roth Financial Group and I welcome you to Ivy City, Mr Lei from the Middle Continent!”

“What’s up?”

Fang Yuan sat on the sofa calmly and asked.

“I bring with me the good intentions of Mr Eric Roth!”

Cyril raised his glasses. “Mr Lei, you’re here for one of Mr Eric Roth’s artwork, right? Mr Eric is a generous person. As long as you are willing to sign this agreement, he will be willing to give you any artwork you like!”

Cyril passed the document over.

“Oh? To hire me as a special consultant, help him once and be rewarded with 10 million dollars, and on top of that get a yearly bonus… He is indeed very generous!”

Fang Yuan flipped through the document and was clear about the agreement. However, what he said next shocked Cyril. “What if… I don’t agree?”

“Why not!”

This was the first time Lawyer Cyril had lost his composure. He was a skilled lawyer of a tycoon and represented an unimaginable amount of fortune and status.

For a person like him, it would take him a lifetime before he would even have a chance to achieve such fortune but for the person in front of him, it was a simple matter of agreeing to the terms.

Cyril could not think of any reason as to why Fang Yuan would reject the agreement.

“Blame it on my… stubbornness!”

Fang Yuan shook his head. “It seems like the deal is over. What plans does Mr Eric have?”

“He does not have any plans for we are law-abiding citizens. It is regretful!”

Cyril packed up his briefcase. “However… I heard that you have used unlawful means to enter the country and that you are under the scrutiny and investigation of the people from Black Man Society?”

“It’s a threat, I see!”

Fang Yuan shook his head. “In the end, you are only a timid mouse capable of using other people to achieve your objective. I overestimated you… Let’s go!”

“Where are we going?”

Cyril froze.

“To where Eric keeps his collection!”

Fang Yuan smiled.

Among the few thousand artworks Eric had, Fang Yuan did not specify which artwork he was after. If Eric wanted to transfer the artworks to another place, it would be a troublesome process. Therefore, the artwork was likely still in its original place.

“Alright!”

Cyril was desolated as he led the way.

“This is… my Hypnotising Spell!

Seeing this scene, Lucy held her mouth and was stunned. “How is this possible? Are you not a mutant with the force of the mind?”

“My lady!”

Fang Yuan scoffed. “Who told you that a person cannot have two special abilities? Furthermore… Why do you think that I cannot do this with the force of the mind?”

“All of these are not important. What’s important is that you are trying to rob the Roth Family now, is that right? In the land of Golden Eagle Federation?”

Lucy’s tongue was tied and could only react after a few moments. “Lord… Either I am crazy or the world is crazy!”

“He is only a mere tycoon and nothing much…”

Fang Yuan wore his suit and appeared as casual as a man who was about to leave for dinner. “Let’s go… the quicker we get what we are after, the quicker we can leave!”

“D*mn it!”

Lucy shuddered in fear, but nevertheless, she followed unknowingly.

Regardless, she had to finish her task. Considering Fang Yuan’s power, she knew that they would at least have the ability to defend themselves should anything happen.

However, from the looks of it, this task seemed impossible.
