Chapter 583
[This $500,000,000 order is going to take a top ten spot on the Dark Net.]
[The person who issued it is very mysterious. There‘s no trace of him online. I can only speculate that he‘s a Cairnstanian soldier.
[But he claimed that he would pay the $500,000,000 after we help him with this order.]
[In our industry, we always work after we receive payment. He‘s clearly violating the rules. I think we better not take this task.
[Sure, $500,000,000 is very attractive, but what if we‘re being fooled?]
Alden pursed his lips and contemplated for less than a second after he read the long list of messages, which K had sent continuously.
He tapped away speedily on his keyboard. [What’s his mission?]
K replied, [I‘ll ask him.]
One minute later…
[What the heck?! Sir Daugherty, we better not accept this mission! This Cairnstanian soldier takes himself very seriously. He wants to kill Auguste! He wants us to assist him in hacking the surveillance system in Auguste‘s manor and creating chaos on the web for the Auguste family. He wants to kill Auguste alone. Don‘t you think he‘s mad?]
You would not find anyone on the Dark Net who did not know Auguste.
He was the leader of an illegal organization in an unregulated territory overseas. After he developed it for about eight years, his illegal organization now had thousands of followers, and he had carved out a path to claim his throne.
Businessmen and politicians who passed by his territory would need to pay a toll.
“A toll” was putting it nicely. In reality, it was blackmail and kidnapping. If they could not pay, they would die. Countless people had died in his territory.
The organization committed crimes everywhere, so regular people dared not step into the region.
International organizations did not want to get involved with this mess, so they turned a blind eye to it, which caused this illegal organization to grow increasingly vicious.
It was Alden‘s first time hearing that someone wanted to kill Auguste.
