Chapter 980 Raid Mission

Chapter 980 Raid Mission

A few days later.

Theo was sitting in front of the Star Group's CEO, Bernard. After the event ended, Theo immediately went back with the others, not caring about others' curiosity.

Now that he had returned, he immediately talked with Bernard to discuss his international mission.

"Instead of doing the mission with the Star Group, I would like to go with the Starry Group," stated Theo with a calm expression. "I have told Maya about this and gotten the 'OK' from her."

Bernard waved his hands as he had already heard the matter during yesterday's dinner.

"I don't have a problem with it. But I need to remind you that you're going with their agents. Unlike the mission from the War God Family, this mission requires a huge amount of workforce. If I'm not wrong, there will be a total of fifty people going on this mission." Bernard nodded while opening the mission detail.

Mission: Black Stone Cave Raid

Description: There's an indication of a terrorist organization inside the cave that is filled with monsters. All agents are required to kill all monsters and terrorists inside the cave.

"Are you sure about this?" Bernard asked with a serious expression. "The Lowe Organization has been chosen by the government to handle this case and the military is going to stand by around the cave.

"The enemies have at least three Mythical Rank Experts, so we will supply two Mythical Rank Experts ourselves, and Lowe Organization will bring three to prepare for the worst. The military will also bring their experts to ensure the mission goes smoothly.

"And in this situation, you won't be in charge of the group. In other words, you're going to follow the leader chosen by the Lowe Organization. I'm sure this will be extremely dangerous since Maya won't be with you."

Theo had heard the details from Maya, so he had thought about it carefully. And since he had another motive, he didn't want to miss this opportunity.

"Yeah. I don't really mind. With my current reputation, my words should have some power even if I'm not from the Starry Group," Theo explained.

"Indeed. If you don't mind those conditions, I won't stop you. You will gather in the Starry Group two days from now and meet the one in charge there."

"Alright. Thanks."

"Now that we're done discussing your mission, I need to mention a few things about your actions in the event." Bernard shifted the topic as his expression darkened soon.

"Is there something wrong?" Theo tilted his head in confusion.

"Not really. As I said previously, beating them is a must. So, I really support what you did to Winston… I had a good laugh when I saw the news." Bernard chuckled.

"So, why do you have a long face?"

"Too many people are visiting me to inquire about your information. Although I can simply direct them to my father, who must be enjoying his life on the other side, it won't be effective for long."

"That's what I thought. I mean, one of the reasons I chose to complete my international mission is for this."

Bernard fell silent when he heard his idea. "I see. In that case, as soon as you go back from the mission, hide inside your mansion for a few months."

"Why? I have been planning to do it for a month or two, but…"

"People's opinions are too strong currently. Because you're scary, they're ganging up on me. That's why the beggars will move sooner or later… Simply because we're too strong…" Bernard let out a long sigh, indirectly implying the trouble that came after their 1st, 4th, and 5th spots on the list.

"I see. If you're too strong, people, who have an inferiority complex, will band together. Suffering from success." Theo nodded in understanding.

"I like the way you put it. Though, I won't call them like that. They're just a bunch of cowards."

"I understand. I don't think I'm planning to go out anytime soon." Theo nodded in agreement while adding inwardly, 'I will just practice my Order and Five Aspects in the meantime.'

"Alright. If the rumor starts subsiding, you should be fine to go out again. It shouldn't take more than four months from now."

"February, huh."

"Yeah."

"It's alright for me. It will impact my levels a bit, but I have some preparations ready." Theo agreed after contemplating for a minute.

"Good. I'm done with my matters. Do you have any requests?"

"Actually, yes. Do you mind getting me some healing liquid? What's the best one? I think the green liquid?"

"Ah, Enhanced Metabolism Medicine. They're quite expensive…" Bernard thought for a moment. "And they are quite hard to find too. At most, I can get you two of them… You can pay me 15 billion Zils for those two."

"I don't mind."

"Of course you don't mind. You have those seven items and A Rank Skill Cards along with 60 billion Zils for the information…"

"Haha." Theo chuckled. "Anyway, can you find more A Rank Skill Cards for me?"

"For what?"

"I'm sure you know my ambition." Theo gave him a misleading hint since there was no way he could say the truth.

"They usually appear in an auction because it's hard to get Skill Cards, especially from a Mythical Rank Monster. Even if I'm searching for them actively, I barely get less than ten. And their prices will skyrocket… Even if you use your remaining money… After reducing it with tax, I don't think you can get more than fifteen A Rank Cards."

"I see…" Theo paused for a moment. There were three skills he wanted to rank up immediately. They were Telekinesis, Metamorphosis, and Death Avatar. He still had seven Skill Cards from Winston, so he shouldn't need too many Cards for now. And to avoid Winston's suspicion, Theo stated, "I only need ten more for the time being."

"Ten, huh…" Bernard muttered in a low voice, calculating the possibility. "Yeah. It shouldn't be much of a problem. Just know that it's going to be a hassle for me since I need to use my connections."

"Just cut to the chase." Theo rolled his eyes, knowing Bernard was using this opportunity to get what he wanted from him.

"I want you to group up with Maya and Mark when visiting Atlantis."

"No problem as long as I can bring Isaac."

"Deal."
