Dauntless God Of War novel Chapter 374

The three men were the top criminals from Jinrich.

Ever since Harold took control and regulated the underground forces' power five years ago, there were many businesses that could no longer be carried out.

Things like selling drugs, weapons, and prostitution were no longer allowed.

The businesses of the criminals of Jinrich immediately hit rock bottom, and some of them were even forced to reconsider their careers.

The criminals of Jinrich could only turn to kidnapping rivals, extorting wealthy businessmen, and so on to maintain their livelihood.

When they had to carry out a task, they even had to handle it personally. It was truly a tragic sight.

“Cobra, we received information that the Schmidt family received over thirty invitation cards from Quintus and that even their lowly staff were allowed to attend the party Quintus is holding. It appears that Zyaire and Quintus have a good relationship. If we kidnap him, would we perhaps incur Quintus' wrath?” In an accented voice, one of the men asked as he passed the binoculars to Cobra.

“That's even better. We would be able to bait Quintus to Jinrich and use the opportunity to off him. He's kept a heavy hand on the underground forces everywhere for the past few years. All our customers were done in by him, and he doesn't even have any intention to sell drugs. If it weren't for him, we would not be in the current situation right now, reduced to kidnapping for ransom!”

“Yeah! If it weren't for that jerk Quintus, we would not be suffering right now! So what if we piss him off? It's not like he can take over Jinrich because this is our turf. A dragon could never hope to suppress the local snakes!”

The mere mention of Quintus immediately made them all gnash their teeth angrily.

“All right, let's proceed according to the plan. First, we'll kidnap the old man Zyaire and wrangle up some start-up capital. When the time comes, the God of War will take care of Quintus. The underground circles will then revert back to how it was five years ago, and our business will flourish!”

Still holding onto the binoculars, Cobra detailed the plan and distributed the tasks to the others.

A day went by just like that.

On the third day, Quintus prepared to celebrate the return of the mysterious Mr. Campbell. He even allowed the use of the sixty-sixth floor of Paradise Hotel, which had never been allowed to the public prior to this. News of the party spread to all the upper-class circle of Hishwick Island.

Countless affluent people received invitations to the party, and those who did not receive any plotted ways to get their hands on one.

There were even people who were willing to offer one million for one of Quintus' invitation cards.

News of Mr. Campbell being the mastermind behind sweeping up the underground forces years ago and Quintus was said to be his underling who was managing things in his absence had spread far and wide.

Everyone was curious about the Mr. Campbell and wished to see what the mysterious man looked like in person.

They were also curious about the never been seen before the sixty-sixth floor of Paradise Hotel. Although the price was high, there were many who were willing to shell out that amount in order to obtain an invitation card.

Despite that, none of Quintus' underlings dared make a rash move, for the invitation cards were priceless.

Claiming to be feeling unwell and thus unable to attend the party, one of the big shots in Hishwick Island decided to auction his invitation card.

In just half a day, the price of the invitation card rocketed to twenty million!

Finally, it was sold for twenty-five million and became the most expensive invitation card to be sold in history.

The price of the mere invitation card was much higher than the net worth of many affluent individuals, thus causing it to become the talk of the auction house as people discussed it enthusiastically.

The party was scheduled to begin at eleven o'clock in the morning,

The people who had received invitations were already gathered outside Paradise Hotel around nine o'clock in the morning.

Harold, Marilyn, Evelyn, and the rest of the Schmidt family also waited at the entrance of Paradise Hotel.

“Marilyn, can we really trust his word? Wasn't Quintus supposed to escort us personally? He's nowhere to be found! What if we can't get in when the time comes and embarrass ourselves?” Evelyn muttered to Marilyn worriedly as they approached the entrance.

Truth be told, when considering Harold's previous deeds, Marilyn still found the former somewhat unreliable.

“It should be fine,” Marilyn replied uncertainly.

The three of them followed behind the Schmidt family as they approached the reception.

“These three aren't with us.”

As Zyaire and the others waited for their invitations to be verified, Sylvena suddenly pointed toward the trio and announced to the person in charge of checking their invitations.
