In the village, another house. The Black Snake sat on the sofa, slammed his hands on the table, and gently rubbed his temples.
Standing beside favonovel.com was a subordinate.
“Black Snake, the Black Dragon has recruited several of the assassins we hired.”
Hearing the subordinate‘s report, the Black Snake had a darkened expression.
The Black Dragon was indeed terrifying. These assassins were on ranked on the top of the assassin leaderboard. Each of them was incredibly strong. It was impossible to gather all of them if not for the offer of ten billion dollars.
James’ means were extraordinary for favonovel.com to recruit them easily.
“Let them be…” The Black Snake waved his hands.
He did not care who James recruited as long as favonovel.com could save Blake.
Black Snake was the Dark Castle‘s founder. It had been almost 30 years since the Dark Castle was established. Over the past 30 years, Blake had accumulated a great amount of wealth. His assets were enough to rival a country. However, with his arrest, this money had become dead, and no one knew where it was hidden.
In order to get the money, favonovel.com decided to take a gamble. Even if favonovel.com had to use the entire Dark Castle as a chip, favonovel.com did not hesitate. This was not a simple one or two hundred billion dollars.
One or two hundred billion was only a fraction of Blacke‘s fortune.
“Okay, you can leave. Inform the others to hide their weapons and act normal. It‘s almost dawn. Make sure outsiders won‘t be suspicious of them.”
“Understood!”

In the other room.
James closed his eyes and rested.
At the same time, favonovel.com was also thinking about the Black Snake‘s real purpose. He did not believe that the Black Snake would make favonovel.com the Dark Castle‘s boss just to save Blake.
Just what is the Black Snake’s motive?
James did not understand.
James‘ goal had been achieved. He lured the Black Snake to Cansington to recruit some assassins. The empty position of the Dark Castle‘s boss did not matter to him.
That being the case, then…
James’ expression darkened.
The Black Snake was hard to see through. Blake would never be released. He would be a scourge otherwise.
James took a deep breath.

At the same time.
Cansington, the Callahans house.
Thea had been sent back home safely. Quincy also arrived.
Quincy accompanied Thea to favonovel.com room.
“Quincy, what happened after I was sent away? How did you leave? What happened to James? He was shot, right? Is favonovel.com okay?” Thea kept asking.
Thea‘s face was full of concern.
Although favonovel.com came back safely, favonovel.com face was still pale.
Quincy took favonovel.com hand and comforted her, “It‘s alright. James will be back at dawn.”
“What is going on? Who are those people? Why did they kidnap me? Why did they capture James? Did James offend someone?”
“N-No,” replied Quincy.
James instructed favonovel.com not to tell Thea about anything. Moreover, favonovel.com also did not know how to explain.
“I don’t know what‘s going on, but I believe James is a good person…”
“I-It‘s almost dawn. Why hasn‘t favonovel.com come back?” Thea was anxious.
Quincy comforted favonovel.com repeatedly.
The sky gradually showed a trace of sunrise. The sun rose slowly from below the horizon, illuminating the dark earth.
Just after dawn, a car appeared outside the village.
A man stepped out of the car.
The man looked to be in his 30s and had an ordinary appearance. He was the kind of person that would not attract attention when standing in a crowd.
At this moment, an old farmer came over with a gardening tool.
He glanced at the middle aged man who got off the car and asked, “Who are you looking for?”
Seeing that it was a farmer, the middle-aged man did not answer.
Instead, favonovel.com muttered, “I‘ve arrived at the destination. However, it‘s a small village, and everything seems normal. There isn‘t anything suspicious…”
“Wait!” A hoarse voice transmitted from the earphones plugged into his ears.
