Chapter 8, Triggering World Quests
What does it mean
Your heartbeat should be a bit faster; this level is still not enough. I know a way to help you quickly get into the right state, just like when you were on the top floor...
At the moment Russell drew his gun at the cross, he sensed danger approaching, leaping into the air, his body contorting into a complex shape, perfectly...! ... was shot!
Russell's expression turned wary, his muscles tensed: "How do you know these things? You seem to be quite familiar with that organization. Could it be..."
As he was speaking, a handgun, the Magnum Eagle II, was suddenly drawn from the holster under his armpit, and two bullets were fired at Russell
Cross : `` ... ... ''
OK! Time waits for no one. Every second wasted increases your danger, so let us get straight to the point. The cross was put away with a pleasant demeanor, emanating an aura that made Russell's heart race, much stronger than before with the slicked-back hairstyle, causing his heart to begin beating faster.
The cross believed it had guessed everything correctly, at which point it suddenly changed its tone: "The man you killed on the rooftop comes from an organization called 'The Brotherhood', which has existed for thousands of years and has trained countless experienced assassins, each capable of taking a life with a single strike"
Ding! The host has triggered a world mission
Moreover, even without him, the son of the cross could still carry out the demolition of the spinning mill, which provides even less reason for involvement!
What kind of expression should be used at this moment, is it truly delightful
Russell listened attentively throughout, his expression showing not the slightest ripple. Having seen the original film, would he speak carelessly?
What on earth!
Russell put the baseball cap back on the table and sighed: "It's useless to say all this, I just know that I won't be able to attend Jacky Cheung's concert."
Russell: "... ..."
As the two individuals extended their hands to shake, at that moment, the hanging television in the bar switched to the news channel. The screen was broadcasting a report on the murder case that occurred on the top floor of a building today. Due to the intervention of certain influential figures, the truth was suppressed, and a man with a slicked-back hairstyle became an innocent bystander passing by the top floor. Subsequently, a wanted notice was displayed on the screen.
Stop, I have changed my mind, I accept your invitation! Don't look so puzzled, I know you want to use me, but I truly need your help, consider it for the sake of my own life.
The expression on the cross was exactly like this: "Indeed, you are in great danger now; they will retaliate furiously until they kill you."
Hehe, I enjoy conversing with intelligent individuals. I have come to seek your collaboration. Although your current skills are rudimentary, you possess the innate talent to become exceptional. With a period of training... Furthermore, there is the Brotherhood; they will be your significant adversaries in the times to come...
The footage captured by the elevator is somewhat blurry, but upon careful comparison, it can undoubtedly be identified as Russell.
Indeed, the point is absolutely accurate
Then forget it, my special hobby is tying others up
Duke rolled his eyes and replied, "Doesn't that mean I am in great danger? I killed one of their members, and not just any member, but a core member who can bend bullets."
The cross grinned and said: "You are indeed very experienced. However, rest assured, I have observed your combat skills, and your close-quarters ability is sufficiently fierce, so this step can be skipped. Of course, if you have any special preferences, I can also tie you to the lathe and give you a thorough adjustment."
The cross exclaimed: "You are truly outstanding, but you still do not jump fast enough!"
The cross indeed seeks to utilize Russell, just as the brotherhood exploits the son of the cross. The cross also wishes to recruit Russell as a pawn. Facing the colossal entity of the brotherhood alone, the cross does not mind cultivating an exceptionally talented assistant, and moreover, Russell himself is a mercenary who works for money, so he does not find anything inappropriate in being used.
The cross knows that matters are not so simple, and begins to analyze the interests at stake: "Do not be hasty in rejecting; if you are worried that I might take advantage of you..."
Happy cooperation
I am sorry, I refuse, because I hate killers
... ...
Half an hour later, the Cross drove Russell to a warehouse where the upcoming training would take place. Russell glanced around at the independent old machine shop; the thick walls provided excellent sound insulation. If he hadn't seen the light rail earlier, he would not have guessed that this place was only a street away from the Cross's lair.
Ah ~ ~ ~ ~
As the scene shifts, a senior police officer is being interviewed by a reporter: "Yes, the case is progressing very smoothly. According to our investigation, it has been confirmed that the criminal is of South Korean nationality"
The cross sneered lightly: "It was done by Sloan. Over the years, he has been paid to kill, and he has even involved a member of parliament!"
It is very safe here; unless one engages in demolition, basically no one will care about the commotion here. In the days to come, I will train you rigorously until I acknowledge your strength
For the sake of life safety, Russell decided to talk less and vote more while reading books in the future, and to occasionally reward dozens of leaders, to avoid being shot in the head from 10 kilometers away one day
Russell clearly recognized the top assassin, to be honest, it was somewhat of a pitfall. The vast imagination of the cross was beyond words, and it could completely be used to... write an online novel
The Cross was originally a member of the Brotherhood and held a NO. 1 status. The organization was initially aligned with the Lawful faction, accepting God's will to eliminate societal threats. However, the leader of the organization, Sloan, succumbed to the temptation of money and began to fabricate targets for personal gain, causing the Brotherhood to deviate from its original purpose. The Cross discovered the conspiracy but was isolated by Sloan, who forged the Cross's name to appear on God's list. As a result, the leader of the organization, Sloan, could not resist the temptation of money and began to fabricate targets for personal gain, leading the Brotherhood away from its original intent. The Cross uncovered the conspiracy but was isolated by Sloan, who forged the Cross's name to appear on God's list.
Faced with the pressure of the cross, Russell did not take it to heart; he came to this world to fulfill a mission. To confront an organization that has existed for a thousand years, or a deadly assassin group, he must have lost his mind to act in such a manner
Task failed, forever trapped in this world, caught in the endless pursuit of the brotherhood
The factory is the place where the cross practices by himself. As a top assassin, he needs to maintain his peak condition at all times, so he often comes back here to hone his skills.
Russell silently took two steps back: "What is the first step, getting beaten up?"
World Mission: Destroy the Brotherhood and personally put an end to Leader Sloan
Russell's sudden change of stance left the cross utterly bewildered, as just ten seconds prior, he had firmly and decisively refused, leaving no room for reconsideration.
I will train you to quickly realize your potential, and at that time we will counterattack the Brotherhood. The groundwork laid, the Cross finally revealed his purpose: "Trust me, you have killed the core members of the Brotherhood, and they will not let it go easily. You cannot escape this; it is your destiny!"
The cross spoke at length, first praising Russell's talent, stating that he was born to be a killer, and then proceeded to share information about the brotherhood
