Hundred Times Income Multiplier System

Chapter 276 Antonio Philips

?

Thousands of kilometers away from Azima country, there was a gigantic stronghold that was surrounded by a very thick and long perimeter wall. The wall was as high as 300m and as thick as 5m.

Behind those walls, there was a group of buildings that scattered around. The area that was covered by the huge perimeter wall was several tens of kilometers in that, if one stood at the other side of the wall, he or she wouldn't manage to see the other end.

The buildings inside here were magnificent and were made from special material that made sure that, these buildings would be able to manage to go through a disaster like an earthquake and so on.

In the streets of the stronghold, there was several people who were walking around. Each and every one of them carried a weapon.

At some corners, there were several conflicts that were happening. Fights easily began between people of different organizations that could be easily told about from the badges and insignias that were on their clothing.

Just outside the stronghold, there were several buildings that were surrounding the perimeter wall. It was like another town that was located just outside the perimeter wall.

Several people were present there as well. In fact, the number of people that were found outside the huge perimeter wall could be said to be almost 10 times that found inside the perimeter wall.

Each and every person that could be seen outside the perimeter wall could be considered an elite in a country like Azima. These people were all armed.

And just like in the perimeter wall, fights would erupt from time to time. Thievery was something that was considered at that normal in this place.

In other words, here there was no law. Only strength was the one that determined if the person was right or wrong.

Currently, in all the surroundings of the huge perimeter wall, there was no person that could be considered normal. Each and every one of them was an elite mercenary.

If all these people that were present in the town that was formed outside the perimeter wall, decided to attack the nations like Azima, those nations hold surely be taken down easily.

Inside the perimeter wall, inside a majestic looking building, there was a man who was seated on a throne like chair.

He was a man with short brown hair, radish eyes, thick brows as well as a body that was well toned. Just from looking at him from a distance, one could easily tell that he was a strong person due to the domineering aura that was surrounding his body.

This person was called Antonio Philips. That's right, this was the person that had sent over the thin man as well as the several elites to go and rescue Nathan.

He was the current second in command of the Panthers organization. He was the one who wanted to get something from Nathan.

Currently, a frown was etched on his face. He was getting impatient as time went by. In the end, he looked at one of the five people that were standing around him.

"Has Yona come back? This should have been a very simple mission considering that he was sent to the continent with the weakest nations." Antonio asked, addressing no one in particular.

"Although that nation could be said to have some strength in that continent, compared to Yona and the troop that he took with him, it shouldn't be a problem for him to get someone and out of the country easily." He continued.

"Vice supreme leader, I'm not sure we should trust that person. Although I understand that you are returning him the favor for giving you 'that' opportunity, since what he was sent to bring back was very important, we should at least send a person who can easily overpower the whole nation so that the mission can be a guaranteed success." One of the men spoke.

Each of the five people present in the room were currently wearing armors that could be considered very high tech to the current technological level.

They all were black in color, with a diagram of a panther on their backs. Currently, each and every one of them had an emblem that consisted of eight stars.

These were considered some of the very best of the Panthers organization. Of course, that was in terms of combat strength.

If Jack were to face them, he would be shocked to find out that, each and every one of them was just as strong as the current him. And what was even more shocking, was the fact that, their strength wasn't dependent on the armor that they were wearing, but the real body strength.

In the whole panther organization, there were only 12 people with the strength of their level. But of course, that didn't actually mean that they were the strongest.

Antonio for example, was wearing a white armor that had a black panther drawn on the chest. As for the emblem that was embedded on his chest, it had 10 stars.

That simply meant that, in terms of strength, he was at least two levels ahead of the five that were standing in front of him.

"You should know that I always honor my words. Additionally, we are currently in a very tight situation. If we dare to lay off any strong person, it will attract the attention of the other forces in the stronghold." Antonio shook head as he spoke.

The organizations in the stronghold always kept an eye on each other. If one organization made any suspicious move, they would always try to find out what it was that they were trying to do.

Although all the organizations present in the stronghold had the same aim and goal, that didn't mean that there were no competitions among themselves.

Currently, what the Panthers organization wanted from Nathan was something that they wanted to keep it a secret. This was something that was related to something that they found about 5 years ago.

They had always been looking for ways to utilize that 'something' but they had always failed. Of course, that was until the previous three months where they found some clues about what would enable them to use what they had found.

But, it had been tough for them to locate what they wanted considering that they could not send the strongest people out of the stronghold.

"I understand that, but if one of us left and went to look for that person that is supposed to give us the information, I am sure that nobody will be able to detect us." Another man, who had long red hair spoke.

"At the end of the day, all those that are keeping an eye on us are all in the low levels as compared to us. So, it shouldn't be something hard for us to easily sneak out of the strong hand with our current level of strength." He continued.

Antonio thought about it for a moment before he nodded his head. What that man had said was actually true.

It was just that, he wasn't willing to risk anything. Additionally, there was the supreme leader who was in charge of the whole Panthers organization.

If he dared to mobilize some of the strongest warriors of the organization without the consent of the supreme leader, they will surely be some problems for him. Perhaps he could even be replaced from his position.

There were several people that were currently aiming for his position. If they manage to find anything that they could use to ditch him out of that position, they would surely do that.

Antonio knew that his current position wasn't guaranteed. And that was the main reason as to why he had actually been keeping an eye on what was required by the supreme leader.

What the supreme leader wanted the most was that, for them to find something that they would use to enable them to utilize what they had found.

If they managed to use what they had found, perhaps they were going to be the reigning force of the whole stronghold.

Antonio had walked himself off for a very long time before he managed to find the clues on what they were looking for. And as a result, he wasn't willing to risk anything that would expose that what he wanted was important.

That was the reason as to why he had sent some of the weaklings to go over and look for Nathan. He was sure that nobody was going to believe that, anything important would be assigned to some of the weakest members of the organization.

Just as he was contemplating on what to do, another person entered the room. From the expression on his face, it was obvious that he wasn't bearing any good news.

"What is it?" Antonio asked with a frown on his face.

The person who had entered was a lady. She had a temperament that showed that she wasn't ordinary. And of course, there was no ordinary person present in the whole stronghold.

Just like the five people that were present in the room, she was amongst the most trusted people of Antonio. And what's more, she was a person who was pursuing Antonio.

That's right, it wasn't Antonio who was pursuing her, but the other way around. Due to the fact that she loved Antonio, she had decided to stay by his side till the time that he would agree to be with her.

"Vice-supreme leader, Yona and all those that were sent out are dead. It seems that they have failed the mission." The lady stated.

"Who dares to kill a member of the Panthers organization?" Antonio jumped to his feet as he shouted in rage.
