The trio’s speculation is not actually that far off.
Because, the young master of the Blackwood planned this scenario after he realized that there is a possibility that the representative, the first target they made contact with might have been kidnapped from right under their noses.
He actually contacted the Purple Sky rchant group to warn and keep an eye on their representative and for so reason, they took his suggestion seriously without any resistance. But they don’t know exactly where the secret location of the space gate was.
That guy already went on the trip this ti before they could even think of informing or protecting him.
And before they could even find the proper location, Sam already arrived with his teammates and directly kidnapped him.
As soon as this happened, there is no way they could sit still.
Granted that the whole thing is a ss between the Fiend tribe and the Myriad beast sect, this is almost the sa as the trio spitting on the faces of the rchant group.
The only reason that the Myriad beast sect is lenient about the safety of these three people and didn’t increase it during the war is because of the involvent of the rchant groups. Even the fiend tribe wouldn’t offend them.
But to their dismay, the current situation is absolutely terrible. They lost two out of three people which ans, the fiend tribe knew the locations of two-thirds of the external resource points that hold almost one-third of the forces of the sect.
For all they knew, the tribe might have already deployed the people to deal with them.
Sam also understood the whole situation a lot better than the speculation. The reason the fiend tribe gave this job to the trio is that they could wash hands off of them after the war is over to get into the good graces of the rchant groups.
Even if the rchant groups wanted to pick a bone with the tribe, they couldn’t just blatantly accuse them when everything was done with rcenaries.
But in the process, the rcenaries used would be dispensable.
The trio doesn’t care about this though.
They knew that behind all of this, once they are done only they will remain along with the two heirlooms of both the fiend tribe and Myriad Beast sect, but the two organizations themselves would be completely destroyed in process or heavily crippled.
But before all of that could happen, they need to find a way to kidnap this third target.
"We need to act fast. The provocation against the Myriad beast sect could be working at any ti. I don’t know how our friends on the other side are working, but I think we are on verge of war and we shouldn’t be wasting too much of our ti here.
Luckily we are way ahead of the schedule. As long as we kidnap her, we could cripple the Myriad beast sect by a lot."
Kumar said as he held his head in exhaustion. He is clearly frustrated by the sudden change of things.
Their difficulty increased by at least ten-fold in his opinion.
Since the news spread like this, the Myriad beast sect should have definitely given protection to that target.
All of a sudden, Noah suddenly realized sothing and said.
"Guys, I think we have a window of opportunity here."
Both of them looked at her and she continued.
"From the information we got from that second guy, this woman’s identity as the representative of the sect was unknown to the Snake Fang.
She managed to join the Snake Fang with so recomndations and got this position and she played the double ga so that she could stand to get so benefits from the Snake fang, like the commission.
So, there is a high chance that no one at the Snake Fang would know about her true identity."
Sam also realized and said.
"That ans, she would not be the one getting the direct protection from the Snake Fang. Rather, one of her subordinates who openly goes as the representative of the Myriad beast sect would be the one getting this protection.
Even if the Myriad beast sect wants to protect her, they wouldn’t be able to directly aid her while she is performing her duty in the Snake Fang, because they cannot reveal her identity now, or else they would be making the Snake Fang their enemy for the infiltration."
"I think we can take advantage of that and kidnap her. All we have to do is make a large distraction by attacking the fake target and get over to the real target and silently slip her in."
Noah said with a bright expression.
But Sam smiled aningfully and said.
"There is sothing more we could do actually."
"What do you an?"
"What I an is that the opportunity in front of us, bigger than that. We can actually use this chance to deal a big blow to the Myriad beast sect.
What if it was revealed that she infiltrated the Snake Fang. What do you think they would do to the Myriad Beast sect?"
Noah and Kumar nodded in realization.
"But rchant groups directly don’t get involved in the war. Once they were known to take sides, the other groups wouldn’t be as kind to them."
"Of course, they wouldn’t be involving themselves directly, but there is sothing else they can do. After all, money is an important asset and the Snake Fang happened to have one of the richest reserves.
And the insult they suffered from the Myriad Beast sect is ginormous compared to what we did. All we did is take away the people that are sort of under their protection, but the Myriad Beast sect was after their profits.
They wouldn’t be able to tolerate that. We can add this fuel to the already burning fla."
"Then what are we waiting for? Then let us go and work."
"Yeah, but we need to do sothing before that. Our faces might have co out by now. The Blackwood knows our identities, they would have released our pictures to the others if they really are trying to piss us off. I am really surprised that they didn’t go after us right away as soon as we ca in."
"Then what could have caused the delay?"
"We don’t know. We just need to take precautions. We are leaving the city." Sam said as he took out the lightning divine dinsion.
After a few minutes, all three of them are on a hill nearby. anwhile, the shadow mice are roaming around the city as they let out the surveillance puppets all over the city while Sam is setting up the surveillance equipnt.
"We are going to get a detailed understanding of the city. Then we would proceed. I think we can take our sweet ti with this. We have a little less than a week. I think we can execute it perfectly.
anwhile, the fiend tribe would be dealing with the external resource points of the Myriad beast sect. I think we are closer to our goal than ever before. We just need to prepare properly."
While they are getting ready, sothing else is happening within the city.
In a courtyard within the estate of the Snake Fang group, a young lady is standing at the window as she looked outside while she talked to a man standing at the door.
"Are you the only person here for my security?"
"Yes."
"The sect only sent you here. One person? I am the one who holds most information regarding the sect. So much that even the sect couldn’t deal with the external affairs without my presence for a day. But you are the only person I get when my life is probably in danger? What is the aning of this?"
"I cannot answer these questions. I am only here to protect you from any possible kidnappings."
She tried to calm herself down by taking deep breaths and asked.
"Did the Snake Fang start searching for them?"
"Yes, they did. But there are no signs. So people at the market and the inn street are saying that they saw soone similar, but there are no traces. The snake fang assud that these people are just trying to get so money with that fake info."
"But what if it is real. What if they ca and left after learning about the large-scale asures you have taken?"
"We didn’t see anyone leaving the city with similar features after we got the pictures."
"This is such a drag."
She looked out of the window and saw a courtyard nearby filled with a lot of experts inside. She couldn’t help but grit her teeth in frustration.
"Why does that fake need so many personnel at her side. I am the real deal here."
She muttered to herself in frustration. But she knew this is the result of her greed. She just reached for too much and this is the consequence which she has to face for that.
