Chapter 284 - Began To Set Up, Causing Conflict
Vincent looked at Kaeger, who was very confident in himself. He smiled and said, "You"re right! Compared to the gloomy-looking Bards, I"m more willing to cooperate with the Feathered Monster Race! Because to be honest, I"ve seen the two Feathered Monster Race"s women in the Paradise of Desire. They look really cute when they turn into spirits!"
Kaeger was ecstatic after hearing that. He quickly said, "If you like them, I"ll go and look for the Ultimate Evil Lord right now. No matter what price I have to pay, I"ll definitely beg him to pardon all the women. Then, I"ll let you choose whoever you want!"
After hearing that, Vincent sighed repeatedly in his heart. His excuse was not good, therefore, he quickly waved his hand and said, "There"s no rush. What I wanted to talk to you about is not an affair, but a really big deal! The Bard Race wanted to take the opportunity to take over the business of the Feathered Monster Race, but I don"t know if you have the appet.i.te to take a share of the Bard Race"s business instead?"
After hearing that, Kaeger quickly nodded and said, "Yes, of course! However, all the entertainment businesses in the capital of Ultimate Evil are like iron buckets. They are completely under the influence of the Bard Race. If it were under normal circ.u.mstances, I wouldn"t be able to find a suitable excuse to intervene even if I wanted to. Now that I have the support of Mr. Fire Asura, I think it"s no problem for me to deal with the mere Bard Race!"
Vincent said confidently, "Of course. Right now, Marcus is waiting for me to make things difficult for you. At the same time, we can use this opportunity to interfere with the Bard Race"s business. But I wonder what kind of benefits can you offer me?"
Kaeger clapped his hands excitedly and laughed, "Well, thank you for the opportunity. As for the reward, you can rest a.s.sured. I wouldn"t dare to say anything else. I will satisfy all the benefits that the Bard Race has offered you!"
Vincent then said, "If that"s the case, I really need your help with something. I recently bought a house. Considering that I have too many enemies and may become enemies with others in the future, I need some weapons that can protect me! You are an arms dealer. Prepare some powerful weapons for me, and make sure I have enough. When you are ready, think of a way to secretly hand them over to me!"
After hearing this, Kaeger could not help but ask curiously, "Why should I hand them over to you in secret? Can"t I just deliver them to your residence?"
Vincent waved his hand, full of killing intent, and said, "If you deliver the weapons to me in the open, wouldn"t it make those who want to attack me wary? Only by secretly holding the weapons in my hands, can I give those who want to harm me the heaviest blow!"
Kaeger felt that what Vincent said was indeed reasonable. At the same time, he had a deep respect for Vincent"s ruthlessness. He quickly nodded and replied, "I understand! I will definitely give you the reward! After that, we will slowly discuss how to deal with the Bard Race!"
Vincent nodded in satisfaction. He then made an appointment with Kaeger to meet the next time. After that, he got up and walked out of the door. After changing into the appearance of the Bard once again, Vincent left the Feathered Monster Race"s headquarters and began to stroll on the streets.
Vincent seemed to be casually strolling but he actually had a clear purpose in mind. He always wandered in some relatively remote and chaotic streets and alleys.
The creatures that gathered in such places were basically the lowest level citizens and were very evil. Their cultivation levels had just risen to level 30, and they did not have any status or powerful racial backgrounds. As such, they could only live in the most miserable environment and in the dark corners.
Over time, these creatures gradually became violent. They would constantly vent their dissatisfaction with life. They soon split into many factions to fight against one another. This was their way of venting the most repressed emotions in their hearts.
Vincent naturally did not worry about safety as he walked through the alleys. He was looking for someone.
Very soon, when Vincent walked out of a dilapidated alley, he felt a trace of aura leaking out from behind him. Someone was following him.
Vincent did not flare up immediately. Instead, he turned around and walked into an even more desolate and abandoned courtyard.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, the creature following behind Vincent was unable to wait any longer. The killing intent that was originally well-hidden instantly leaked out. The sound of a sharp blade cutting through the air was heard behind Vincent.
Vincent sighed softly, "You still haven"t gotten rid of your old habit. You"re too anxious!" He then stomped on the ground. A burst of intense flames spread out in all directions. At the same time, Vincent"s body also became illusory. He was swaying.
"Whoos.h.!.+"
A cold light pa.s.sed through Vincent"s body. At the same time, a black shadow also landed in front of Vincent. However, when he turned his head to look at Vincent, he discovered that what he had just pierced through was not Vincent"s body but a ball of flames that was gradually dissipating!
As for Vincent"s original body, he had long moved into the middle of the flames.
The black shadow felt somewhat disappointed, but he also scratched his head with some respect, and shouted loudly, "Master, I lost again!"
The flames in the courtyard instantly disappeared and condensed into Vincent"s body.
Vincent looked at Ebenezer, who had recovered from his injuries. He had also improved his strength. Vincent could not help but nod his head in satisfaction. He replied, "Not bad! Your strength has improved very quickly. You are now a level 27 creature. I believe that you will soon be able to advance to level 30. At that time, you can begin your a.s.sa.s.sination journey in the capital of Ultimate Evil!"
Ebenezer waved his arms impatiently. He smiled at Vincent and said, "The a.s.sa.s.sination techniques of the Shadow Demon Race are very exquisite. They are the best at defeating the strong with the weak. I think that even if it is an opponent above level 30, I am confident that I will be able to fight it. If Master needs me to do anything, just tell me. I have not been able to stay idle for the past few days!"
Vincent turned to look around and asked, "The dark crystals I gave you before should be quite a lot. Why didn"t you find a better place to stay? Instead, you stayed in such a rundown place?"
Ebenezer chuckled and said, "Your disciple feels that this is the only place that is most conducive to concealing one"s ident.i.ty. After all, there are many creatures who would suddenly appear in this alley every day. There are also many creatures who would suddenly disappear from this alley. Therefore, no one will care about my existence!"
After seeing that Ebenezer had indeed matured a lot, Vincent immediately felt relieved. He replied, "Since you want to move around, then I will give you a mission! In the following period of time, keep an eye on the members of the Feathered Monster Race and the Bard Race. Pick some of the weaker ones and start the a.s.sa.s.sination. There are no other requirements, nor is there a limit to the number of creatures to a.s.sa.s.sinate. Just kill as many as you can until I tell you to stop!"
Ebenezer nodded and replied, "Yes!"
