The incandescent lights in the room were unusually bright. Irving was in a guest room in this high-rise building with a good view of the surroundings. He looked down at the lights of thousands of homes and the bustling city. He curled up on the sofa, staring at the black card given to him by Bauer in his hand, lost in thought.It was unknown what material the card was made of. It was completely black and could not be broken or smashed. It was the size of a normal business card, and there was nothing else on the front except a number that was so dark red that it seemed to be bleeding.After staying in Silverwood's house for ten days, on the evening of the tenth day, after Bauer received a guest in the study, he carefully handed the black card to Irving and told Irving that the person who came to visit in the evening was the leader of this black list organization.Afterwards, of course, he said goodbye to Silverwoods, and then inexplicably followed this so-called guide to a pier, where h
The four cars sped along, and under the guidance of the female leader, they drove further and further in the opposite direction of the fireworks. Soon, the group of people came to the edge of the city, and under the guidance of the female leader, they abandoned the car and drove fast until they came to a dense jungle, and then they stopped to rest and catch their breath."Who are the reserve team members? Can't the five of us handle them? Why are we fleeing in such a hurry?" The short man who dealt with the security guard in the parking lot wiped the fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead and asked the question that Irving wanted to ask with some indignation.At this time, the female leader seemed to have recovered her breath. She glanced at the short man and sneered. "Reserve members are those who are on the reserve Black List. They are strong enough but there are not enough vacancies to place them. One of the ways for them to be promoted to the Black List is to collect enough
The short man reacted very quickly. He suddenly pulled out a long dagger from his waist and rushed forward quickly. He chopped five times in a row with lightning speed. His behavior at this time had a kind of momentum to propel him forward. This short man appeared to be a very oppressive person. At this time, he was preparing to attack with all his strength, and he might have the intention of defeating the enemy in one move, so as to ensure his position as the leader of this team in the future.But the burly figure who was charging forward did not dodge or evade. Instead, he stretched out his hands and grabbed the wrist of the smaller man, causing his seemingly brilliant but actually useless sword skills to come to nothing.The burly figure just grabbed the little man's wrist, and with his other free hand he hit the little man's temple with his fist like a Warhammer. It was not difficult to tell from the powerful punch that he was intending to kill him.Sure enough, the sound of bone
Irving fled blindly, without any curiosity about the sudden movement behind him. He was in a panic and could not give a flying thought about the female leader who was five meters away from him.The two ran all the way. Irving seized an opportunity, turned his head and glared at the female leader, shouting. "Run separately. You have a better chance of escaping alone!"Looking at Irving's fake concerned look, the female leader chuckled and cursed, "Bullshit, don't even think about leaving me and running away. I'll follow you."In the female team leader's mind, Irving's ability to know in advance that the reserve team members were approaching was the best guarantee for escape at this time. Naturally, she could not abandon him and walk around alone in this dark jungle. If she accidentally ran into the reserve team members, she would be sorry for it. Moreover, if this kid got lost, where could she find him later?Seeing that the woman was indifferent and dared
Samantha reluctantly withdrew her gaze from Irving's pocket. She was only envious of the number on the card and had no intention of snatching it away. After all, the blacklist was updated every five years and the rankings were always changing. If your strength did not match the black card you snatched, then you will remain ranked as you were.Samantha nodded, and Irving asked. "How many reserve players are here this time?""I don't know in particular. This has nothing to do with my mission, so I can't check it. But there should be quite a few people, otherwise Team G wouldn't have set off fireworks to signal the enclosure behavior!""Aren't the fireworks used for signaling gatherings?""You've watched too much TV programs, haven't you? The reserve players are basically divided into groups of five to complete the mission together. The G team is the most powerful one among them. The fireworks they set off don't mean to gather, but to tell the other reserve players that this area of 100
Quito was the first capital city in ancient South American history. Its overall layout was built according to the then Caras culture of the Quito kingdom. The entire city is neatly planned in a chessboard shape. As the former first capital city, Quito once flourished in culture and politics.As one of the birthplaces of ancient Ecuadorian culture, Quito was most talked about for its temple-like churches and Our Lady Shrine, which also had a long history.In Quito, where the people have placed all their spiritual hopes on the churches called temples, the activities of legalized violent gangs were naturally carried out based on these temples and the Our Lady Shrine, which competes with the five major temples on its own."The Zambrano family relies on the Basilica Temple, which is under the control of the Five Temples. Its sphere of influence covers the East City District and two-thirds of the North City District. It has between 500 and 700 formal members, and its headquarters is in the
Hearing this, Irving's narrowed eyes suddenly opened, and with one hand he pushed himself up, doing a fancy 360-degree side flip in the air, and looked at Samantha with shining eyes and said, "I've been waiting for this time for a long while."Everything was ready, and the two went out and got into a white van that Samantha had jacked at some point. Samantha's driving skills were indeed impeccable, and she drove at lightning speed, taking advantage of every opened opportunity. Irving, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the panicked pedestrians outside the window and listened to the shrill sirens that sounded everywhere, which could not even be covered by the roar of cars.He glanced at Samantha who was concentrating on driving, and suddenly the words "the fast and the furious" emerged in his mind.About twenty minutes later, Samantha parked the car in an alley, asked Irving to get out, and then the two of them trotted to a building that had been rooted in Irving's mind a
As Samantha expected, within ten minutes, acolytes poured out of the Basilica again, and this time Irving couldn't really count the number of acolytes at a glance. After all, he couldn't look openly but only glance secretly with his peripheral vision. However, he guessed the number should be more than forty-nine. This was the conclusion Irving came to after secretly peeping at the bus that was marked with a limit of forty-nine people and saw that many acolytes still had no seats.The wait that followed was rather long, perhaps about half an hour. This time, the acolytes pouring out of the Basilica had angrier expressions on their faces. They howled in eagerness and got on another bus.Looking at the last bus leaving, Samantha tilted her head to signal Irving that he could get up.As soon as Irving turned over and got up, Samantha quickly stood up, waved at Irving, and broke into a run.Irving narrowed his eyes, staring at Samantha's back without moving, and said, "You haven't told me
