Chapter 348: Dragon Elephant
Yu Qiushui chuckled and said, “The difference lies in the profits.”
“The first method is for the Enforcement Team to act, and you have nothing to do with it.”
“But after dealing with Liu Xiao, all his assets will be taken over by the organization and become part of their internal resources.”
“As for the second method, it’s just the opposite.”
“The organization acknowledges the legitimacy of your actions but will not provide assistance. After you handle it yourself, all of Liu Xiao’s assets will belong to you and be under your control.”
Luo Yan, quick-witted, immediately asked, “If I handle it myself, can I invite someone to help?”
“Of course, that is also included within the scope of handling it by yourself,” Yu Qiushui quickly replied affirmatively.
Luo Yan, without hesitation, said, “Then I would like to ask for your help to block Liu Xiao from escaping while I take action.”
“Do you have any mecha available for rent?”
Yu Qiushui was surprised and asked, “You know how to operate mecha?”
This really caught her off guard.
Luo Yan calmly responded, “I have studied it.”
Yu Qiushui chuckled and said, “Red Ghost, how many more surprises do you have for me?”
“Are you really not considering being my partner?”
After some banter, Yu Qiushui said seriously, “I have mecha available and can rent them to you.”
“However, as far as I know, Liu Xiao and his team have a total of four mechas.”
“How many mechas are you planning to rent?”
“I remember at that time, Zhang Ze’s team, only Zhang could pilot the Mecha, no one else was a Mecha Master.”
“If it’s just you, can you handle four mechas?”
Luo Yan nodded gently, just as Yu Qiushui said, the lack of mechas and Mecha Masters was a weakness of Team 7.
And quite fatal.
This would make Team 7 very passive in many actions, and also unable to accept some tasks that require mechas.
He knew Yu Qiushui must have more to say, so he waited quietly.
Yu Qiushui continued, “Alright, I’ll rent you one, and let two more mechas assist you. What do you think?”
“Tell me your price, let’s see if I can afford it.” Luo Yan believed that there’s no free lunch, especially not from Yu Qiushui who was not the ‘helpful’ type.
Yu Qiushui smiled, “Red Ghost, do you really think I’m so money-minded?”
Without waiting for Luo Yan to respond, she said, “After dealing with Liu Xiao, I want thirty percent of his current assets, or an advanced mecha, of course, it must be an advanced model.”
“So, can you afford this price?”
Luo Yan was somewhat surprised.
He could certainly afford this price, and he didn’t even have to pay immediately.
Everything can wait until Liu Xiao is sorted out.
Renting a mecha, plus getting some other help.
Only asking for thirty percent of the assets, or an advanced mecha.
This price can only be described as cheap!
“Deal,” said Luo Yan, “but why are you doing this?”
Yu Qiushui made a noise and said, “Investment, huh.”
“If you want to make a lot of money, you need to have a long-term vision. Don’t let small profits distract you.”
“I believe that investing in you will bring returns that are ten times, a hundred times, or even a thousand times the current price.”
“In short, I have high hopes for you.”
“For now, let’s leave it at that. I will let you know as soon as I find out where Liu Xiao is. Get ready.”
End of communication.
Luo Yan put down his phone, closed his eyes for a moment, and then asked someone to bring Guan Peng from the ‘Iron Horse’ mercenary group.
It didn’t take long for Guan Peng to arrive.
“Prepare your people. There will be an operation shortly.”
“By the way, do any of your people have a Mecha Master?”
Luo Yan remembered that Di Zheng once said that all members of the ‘Iron Horse’ were retired soldiers.
Although not all retired soldiers are Mecha Masters, there should be some.
Guan Peng chuckled, “Yes, we used to have several in our squad, but now, I’m the only one.”
Luo Yan nodded, he had a plan to train his own Mecha Masters.
However, for now, he didn’t delve further into this issue.
After chatting with Guan Peng for a while and confirming some details, he let Guan Peng go back first.
Just then, Wen Zou returned.
“Sir, we have temporarily taken charge of the people and goods from the ‘Kaiyang Group’.”
“In terms of people, Kaiyang Group has recently recruited many individuals, about two to three hundred people who are capable of fighting and killing.”
“In terms of possessions, Kaiyang Group’s newly acquired properties, including a commercial building in the city area, have started the procedural processes. About a week later, they will officially become properties of our ‘Red Gate’.”
Luo Yan acknowledged, “I’ll leave the Kaiyang Asset matters to you to manage.”
Then, he called Mountain Falcon.
“Integrate the personnel of Kaiyang Group with our own, then select one hundred clever and capable individuals to be handed over to Wei Junyi.”
“Let Yang Hao train them well.”
“Also, inform Wei Junyi to be prepared, we will need him in a few days.”
Mountain Falcon nodded, “Understood.”
Wen Zou then added, “Sir, those individuals with the surname Yao did not survive in the end, their bodies are outside the God of Wealth Temple, how should we handle them?”
Luo Yan stood up and casually said, “Let their subordinates or family members come to pick them up themselves.”
After giving instructions, Luo Yan left the tavern.
Not long after, Mountain Falcon and Wen Zou arrived at the God of Wealth Temple.
Mountain Falcon looked solemn as he gazed at the bodies laid out in front of the small temple.
Seeing Cui Kaixin among the bodies, the person who had defeated him and left him injured, now unrecognizable, made Mountain Falcon’s face turn serious.
If Mountain Falcon had any doubts about Luo Yan before, now he was filled only with deep fear.
The next day.
Battle Academy.
With a tablet in hand, Luo Yan was browsing through the exchangeable items in the ‘Divine Weapon’ category.
The name is ‘Divine Weapon’, but this type of item doesn’t just refer to weapons, there are many different types of items.
Apart from weapons, there are armors, accessories, and some items that are difficult to classify.
For example, there is a mirror entwined with white bones, continuously reflecting the target, causing flesh to rot and bones to decay.
There is also a black leather drum that, when struck with different rhythms, can unleash varying scales of thunder and fire.
Luo Yan repeatedly looked through the ‘Divine Weapon’ section on the exchange page, and eventually chose a sword.
The sword is named ‘Dragon Elephant’, it has a simple design, made of a rare iron from the ‘Return Ruins’, feels heavy in hand, and is extremely sharp.
Additionally, when using this sword with Elemental Power, it can unleash its power of suppression.
The power of suppression can hinder the opponent’s movements, and the Elemental Power is suppressed, as if being suppressed by the combined force of ten dragons and ten elephants.
After confirming his choice, Luo Yan reported the item and shortly received a notification.
One week later, you can go to the army corps logistics department to pick up.
In no time, it was afternoon.
Luo Yan finished practicing, only to find a missed call on his phone.
It displayed Yu Qiushui’s number.
He immediately called back.
“We have news.”
As soon as the call connected, Yu Qiushui said, “That Liu Xiao is quite clever. After you called him with the ‘Yellow Spring’ organization members’ phones yesterday, he left the original underground city in the morning.”
“He has hidden in the Silver Bay Base, which is a surface base near the bay.”
