Chapter 250
If the mission failed, the money would be returned to the employer in full.
The employer and the person executing the mission would not meet the entire time, and they would not get into contact. This way, the employer’s identity would be better protected.
Ever since the establishment of the dark web, the failure of a mission had never affected the employer too badly. Hence, the popularity of the dark web ended up increasingly quite rapidly.
Nowadays, the dark web had become a place that provided for countless mercenaries and assassins.
Also, it would rank the mercenary groups and assassins according to the difficulty of the mission and completion rate.
The ones who could get to the top of the rank would be the people who were very famous in the underground world.
As for the dark web itself, all the countries insisted on abolishing it. A country’s important political leader might be assassinated at any time because of its existence.
However, it could not be helped. The dark web’s address seemed to be changing every day, and it was maintained by the best hackers in the world, making it impossible to get rid of it completely.
Thus, the dark web was getting stronger day by day.
Zachary was warned by T-man Stan that the ten-year appointment was approaching, and he should not get into trouble for the time being.
He did not dare to go against Stan brazenly, but he was unwilling to let David off the hook just like that. Hence, David’s arrival in Capital City would be the opportune time to strike.
He decided to post a mission on the dark web as an employer so that he could get internationally famous assassins to get rid of David.
It would be best if it was successful. Even if it failed, he would not be affected too badly.
After waiting for some time, there was no response from the dark web, which meant that no one was accepting his mission.
He was a little puzzled. From what he knew, the price to assassinate a peak Tiger Ranker would cost about 300 million dollars and he had raised the price to 500 million dollars.
Logically speaking, a mission offering almost double the bounty would be accepted immediately in the dark web. He wanted it to be accepted as fast as possible, which was why he increased the bounty by so much.
He did not expect that no one would accept it even after almost an hour.
What went wrong?
Zachary was confused.
This was the first time he had posted a mission on the dark web.
What Zachary did not know was that not only did the target’s ability play a role in the assassination, their identity and location were also taken into consideration. These aspects played huge roles.
For example, when it came to the assassination of a peak Tiger Ranker, there would be a massive difference between one who was just a lone individual with no forces backing them and one who was an heir to a huge family.
The price might even be ten times higher in the second case.
What Zachary posted was just a name without any personal information. Moreover, the location was also Capital City in Somerland, which was regarded as off-limits by mercenaries and assassins.
Everyone knew that Somerland had special organizations to target mercenaries from abroad like them.
Assassins who worked alone were slightly better off because their targets were smaller. Some o f the bolder ones would dare to come but most of them would not be able to return. There were not many who were able to successfully complete their mission here.
Mercenaries were even worse. They were unwilling to accept missions in Somerland because they would go on missions in groups. Occasionally, they would even go in groups of more than ten.
They would be spotted easily in Somerland, and it was too dangerous. Hence, it was almost never worth it.
Therefore, it would be strange if someone accepted Zachary’s mission.
These people were not idiots. They would still need to stay alive to spend the money, right?
Due to this, 500 million was not worth it for them to risk coming into a forbidden land like Somerland.
