Legend of Dragon Son-in-law - Chapter 358
Chapter 358: Chapter 358 Wolf Cavalry_1
“Boss, the Hall Family from the capital has vast wealth and influence. What you did today is a bit troublesome!”
In the general manager’s office, Finn Carmichael looked at Julius Reed with a worried expression.
“The Hall Family has risen rapidly in recent years, all thanks to their ruthless and aggressive approach! Sterling Fairbanks’s father is particularly well-connected and has a group of desperados at his disposal. What you’ve done is too dangerous.”
He wasn’t worried about Young Master’s abilities, as he was very clear about Julius Reed’s capabilities.
Of course, this was what he thought he knew very well.
In fact, within the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, very few people knew just how strong Julius Reed really was.
“Insulting the Hall Family like this, I’m afraid there could be reprisals.” Finn Carmichael paced back and forth on the floor. “In that case, I’ll divert some manpower over to secretly protect you!”
“Your employees are all part of the spy network, don’t show yourselves so easily,” Julius Reed waved his hand, not scolding Finn Carmichael.
It was praiseworthy for employees to be considerate of their own.
“Then you…”
Finn Carmichael was still not reassured; if the Hall Family really took action, it could be very dangerous.
“We have him!” Julius Reed pointed to Lucan Davenport, who was eating fruit. “You’ve seen what’s behind him, haven’t you? With him around, there won’t be any problems.”
Lucan Davenport almost choked on his fruit. He was about to say something, but then thought better of it.
He still relied on Julius Reed for protection, and he figured that there probably wasn’t anyone born yet who could truly protect Julius Reed.
“Alright, I will inform the spies in Five-river Province to keep a close eye on the movements of the Hall Family. The moment someone enters the province, I will notify you at once.”
Finn Carmichael nodded, having no other choice.
“By the way, check out the fight at the Leopold Family villa tonight, who were the people involved. Also, who have they been in close contact with recently?”
Julius Reed’s purpose in coming to this bar was to use the spy network he had set up years ago to ascertain the woman’s true identity.
Being able to mobilize the Shadow Warriors meant she was a high-ranking member of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, but the Alliance was large, and there were more than a dozen women with that kind of power alone.
With the situation unclear, he couldn’t check each one of them individually.
Right now, everyone was a suspect.
“Young Master, there really is something!” Finn Carmichael hurried to the table and began flipping through files without stopping.
A moment later, he brought a few sheets of paper to Julius Reed.
“Skyfire’s people are staying at the Leopold Family villa. We’ve not yet identified who they fought with, but a rough estimate suggests that they must be locals.”
Finn Carmichael pointed to the text in the report and began to analyze, “Our spy network is strong, I have confidence in that. Since three months ago, the skilled fighters who have been coming into the province have been just a few groups. Excluding the large number of Shadow Warriors who entered Gonzalez City for a few days and later all left.”
“I’m aware of that,” Julius Reed interrupted. “The Shadow Warriors came to kill me, but most of them held back a lot after being warned by Cosmo and Willson Pavilion and didn’t dare to take on the secret bounty.”
“You knew about this?” Finn Carmichael looked at Julius Reed with a strange expression and pulled out another report. “These people are very skilled and even more vigilant! Our people have failed every time they tried to get close. Such a small team that’s starting to take shape, if they had come from another province, we definitely would have noticed.”
He affirmed with certainty, “So, I conclude that these people are definitely locals!”
“If that’s really the case, then it gets interesting,” Julius Reed frowned slightly, acknowledging Finn Carmichael’s conclusion.
He had personally laid out the intelligence network in Five-river Province, so he was clear about the capabilities of this network.
It was impossible for such a large team to go without any records, the only explanation being that they were locals.
“But locally, is there an organization that strong?”
This was what Julius Reed didn’t understand.
He had been causing such a stir in the province for so long and yet had never discovered the existence of such an organization.
Being able to fight Skyfire and still have the upper hand, he must not be an ordinary person!
You should know that Skyfire has a certain reputation in the West.
“Within the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, there is no existence of such an organization. Although we are directly subordinate to you, we still understood the composition of the entire Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance at the beginning. There is no organization of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance within this province, except for Cold Nelson, who came over some time ago.”
Finn Carmichael pointed to Cold Nelson’s name.
“It’s not him.”
Julius Reed shook his head. “Cold Nelson’s people are in my hands, and moreover, I do not doubt Cold Nelson’s loyalty.”
“If that is the case, could this group of people have descended from the sky?” Finn Carmichael was even more puzzled as he picked up the report on the table and flipped through it repeatedly.
But no matter how much he searched, even going back three years, he could not find the existence of such a force in the province.
Furthermore, lying dormant for three years is not realistic.
“Perhaps, you have overlooked one force.” Julius Reed narrowed his eyes and kept tapping on the table surface.
“You mean…”
At this point, Finn Carmichael’s eyes widened to the point they looked like they could fit an egg in his gaping mouth!
“There is such a force, independent of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance yet existing within it. This force is quite comprehensive, long responsible for assassination work, not only with formidable combat strength but also first-class anti-surveillance capabilities! If there’s one force in this world that could bypass your spy network to come to Five-river Province, it would be this one.”
Julius Reed took a deep breath, and his hand propped on the table also trembled a bit.
This was not fear, but anger!
Betrayal!
This signified betrayal!
Julius Reed took a deep breath and pulled out his phone from his bosom, dialing Cold Nelson. “Help me check the movements of the Wolf Cavalry over the past month.”
Hearing the name Wolf Cavalry, Finn Carmichael’s face turned as pale as a ghost.
However, Lucan Davenport beside him did not understand the significance and continued to eat fruit.
But he felt that Julius Reed seemed truly a bit angry.
This was the first time he had seen Julius Reed this angry since they met.
After a moment, Cold Nelson’s call came through.
“Young Master, last month the Wolf Cavalry redeployed, and when they regrouped, a squad from the third battalion went missing. The official statement was that they were carrying out a secret mission.”
Crack!
The phone was crushed to pieces by Julius Reed.
“Wolf Cavalry’s third battalion, top-tier camouflage masters. Although their combat strength might not be very strong, they are capable of appearing and disappearing unpredictably, and not even the spy network I personally laid out could detect them!”
“Young Master, could this have been the doing of Barlow Huntington?” Finn Carmichael gasped in shock.
Barlow Huntington, commander of the Wolf Cavalry’s third battalion.
Though she was a woman, her combat strength was astonishing!
In the past, leading the Wolf Cavalry’s third battalion to charge for thousands of miles, they ambushed the enemy unsuspectingly and killed them!
“Barlow Huntington… It can’t be her.”
Julius Reed shook his head.
“Could it be the Wolf Cavalry’s overall commander…” Finn Carmichael dared not continue his guess.
“If it were really her doing, would the Wolf Cavalry have only sent a small squad from the third battalion?” Julius Reed smiled faintly. “If the five battalions truly came to kill, I’m afraid you would be dead before your spy network could get the message to you.”
