Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Chapter 1223: Investigation results

Sam reached the location he agreed to meet with his teammates.

They are currently inside a house they bought in a village. When he arrived, he could see that the teammates are all excited.

"Okay, guys. We cut down some teammates, so you know what that means, you guys get more action. Now, let us not waste any more time and just get into it immediately. I think we have wasted so much time and all this while the holding back made me so frustrated."

"Good to see you too, boss. I am fine. Thanks for asking. How are you doing? Oh great? You had such a great time with your friends playing around? I really wished that was me..."

Sam looked at the Saber Monarch who is running his mouth over and over.

"Dude, what are you? An eight-year-old seeing your father after a year wouldn’t react as you do."

Kiran said from the side.

Sam ignored them and sat beside Markan.

"So, how are you doing? Is the information worth the effort you guys put in? Do we have anything that we take advantage of?"

"I don’t know you tell me. For me, nothing looks like an opportunity here. It is more like everything is a fucking disaster. The Black Ghosts went from a neutral party that sells information and arrange mediations to this shit show these assholes are running.

I want to kill that bastard right now. But I cannot do that, because the whole organization my ancestors built has become his plaything and he is playing with it like never before."

Sam could only stay silent at his frustrations and soon, Markan and the rest of the team started giving the information they have been collecting so far.

For starters, the Black Ghosts are currently spread in over twenty-one realms which is too much for even Sam.

He has never seen an organization’s presence in so many realms. The five great sects which is divided into five branches only have their influence in eighteen realms out of which eight realms are completely in its control while the remaining eight are shared by organizations that are as strong as the five great sects.

But the difference is that the Black Ghosts don’t rule the realms, they only control the whispers of the realms. According to Markan, there is only one realm the Black Ghosts have complete control on and even there, they are mostly an enforcement organization rather than the ruling party.

They are like a god for whom the commoners pray when the rulers don’t hear their pleads.

This realm is where the grand elders stay and the training areas of the Black Ghosts are present.

The residence of the head of the organization is also there which in turn means that the disc is also there.

But entering that place is hard. It is called Sky Mountain.

It is a single mountain peak and the area is actually very small. It is impossible to infiltrate. They could at most directly enter it and get killed at this stage. There is an only possible way to get this thing, that is to make Markan hand it over the disc himself.

And from the looks of it, the location of this place didn’t change even with the change of leadership.

Apart from that, the operations of the organization completely changed.

The Black Ghosts is basically an information organization, but now they are doing a lot more than that and are spreading their fingers in many fields.

The first and foremost thing they never did was the assassinations. They never killed anyone for money. If it comes to saving themselves or their interests, they might have killed a lot of people, but for money, they never did that.

But now they are doing all kinds of dirty work. They are even sending out hired thugs for jobs like kidnapping, plundering.

They are also currently running a brothel racket with forced prostitution. Taking advantage of their large network of over twenty realms, they are kidnapping beautiful women of different races from different realms and shifting them to a completely different realm, forcing them to sell their bodies.

But that is not all, they are also into gambling now. Particularly, forced-fighting pits are popular nowadays in every place they are in.

They kidnap men from different places and are throwing them to fight with each other forcibly.

They are not even discriminating against the cultivation levels, in fact, they are even dealing with teenagers who didn’t even awaken at all.

For some reason, the people want to see weaklings fight it out. And most of the time the fights are for deaths.

As Markan explained everything, Sam could feel his anger bubbling.

"You said that Grand Elders are the enforcers and they act when the leader and the administrators don’t do their job properly, what is the problem now? Why are they not acting up?"

"The Grand elders couldn’t find the direct involvement at all."

"That is hard to believe don’t you think?"

"It is hard to believe, but the thing is the grand elders don’t come down to the low-level members to investigate their actions and to find some hard evidence. For some reason, the Grand Elders are especially fixated on this evidence thing. I thought it was to protect the innocent victims that got excused and to shut the opposition. But now I understand that it is my naivety to think like that.

This bastard is actually running another organization under his name. He recruited a bunch of guys from the failures of the training program the Black Ghosts have and made them the administrators or at least by name in that organization.

When the Grand elders’ investigation team went on to investigate the situation, all they found was that there is a new organization that is spreading and these members have friends in the Black Ghosts. That’s it."

"Wait, isn’t that a bit too far-fetched. No matter how lax the investigation is, they should be able to differentiate between having some friends and running the organization themselves. This is laughable."

Sam replied in amusement.

"Except it is not. These guys are good. The Black Ghosts are trained in stealth, you put them in a group and you wouldn’t be able to pick that they are special.

They are maintaining this group so secret that when we started the investigation, even we couldn’t find anything wrong with the situation.

We couldn’t find a connection between these rackets and the Black Ghosts for a very long time.

We were shocked, to say the least. They are that good." Night Ghost Explained Sam’s doubts.

"Then how did you guys catch a break?"

"One of the subordinates of the close aides of the current leader. Markan identified him. We caught him and got the info from him. Only after that did we manage to go after the correct target who has the connection between both the organizations and managed to get all this info."

Sam was really surprised by all of this and didn’t even know how to react.

"Just what happened to your organization. You said that they have this cult-like following. So, wouldn’t they have to follow the established rules? How did they manage to get so many people that would break so many rules? This is insane."

"I know that is insane and that is what I am about to talk to you next. I found something wrong with one of the people we killed. He is one of the administrators that work in this parallel organization and there is something wrong with him."

"Wrong? What is it?"

"The memories of the person didn’t add up. I know of him from the training grounds and I know some of his dark secrets which he had to carry to the grave, if not for me knowing it. But when we checked into the memory, we didn’t find those events."

Sam was surprised and asked.

"Who extracted the memory?"

"Night Ghost."

Sam turned to Night Ghost and asked.

"Did you see anything interfering in the extraction process?"

"No. His soul is clean without any foreign interference."

"Do you have the body now?"

"Yes."

Night Ghost took the body out from the death energy chamber that Sam used to preserve the bodies. He used the observation ability on the body and was surprised.

"I think I have a theory, but we need to confirm it first. Why don’t we go and capture another person who you know of and see if we can find a similar anomaly? I think I can make a more accurate guess if I am involved in the process."

Markan thought for a moment and said.

"I think I know the perfect target for this." He said and started giving out the details. In the city close to them, there is a racket of fighting ring going on and the administrator there who belongs to the Black Ghosts are known to Markan.

Actually, they are waiting in this city especially for him. They wanted to capture the boss of this guy who they expected to come here to check up on him
