Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 432

Chapter 432

Dave couldn't help but frown at Anthony's words. “What did you say?”

Anthony flashed him a determined gaze. “Vermillion Base's sheer existence is a disaster. Hence, rooting it out will benefit a lot of people!”

“Are you saying you want to get rid of Vermillion Base?” Dave asked him with doubt.

“Yes. You can put it that way!” Anthony responded in a deep voice.

At that moment, Dave couldn't help but think he was building castles in the air.

He is a kid, after all. He didn't think it through.

As Kenneth's best friend and Anthony's elder, Dave couldn't let Anthony behave in such a way. He hesitated for a while before giving him some advice. “Anthony, I know you're clever. Considering Darknetz has chosen you at such a young age, you're undoubtedly competent. Despite that, I have to advise you—It's good to have dreams, but one can't be full of hot air!”

Meanwhile, Anthony wasn't surprised, for he expected Dave wouldn't believe him. Unperturbed, he took a firm stance on it. “Mr. Dave, I'm not full of hot air or joking. I'm being serious!”

“Anthony, do you know how old you are? I mean, even your dad, a prominent figure, dare not say that!” Dave reminded him.

“That's because Daddy doesn't have a unique advantage!” Anthony argued.

Dave gazed at him in bewilderment. “Oh? What advantage do you have?”

“Mr. Dave, I know you think that I'm swanking. I did say I will destroy the organization. However, it doesn't have to happen right now. I will go up against the organization for the rest of my life. Anyway, I think it won't be long for me to make it happen!” Anthony explained.

“Oh? Is that so?”

“Yes! Believe me,” Anthony responded resolutely.

Although Anthony sounded determined, Dave still thought he was building a castle in the air. Hence, Dave decided to give him an overview of the situation. “Anthony, I have some questions for you. Do you know Vermillion Base's background and why it exists? Why has it lasted for so long and never collapsed? Moreover, Vermillion Base is different from other organizations such as ours—”

“I guess Vermillion Base is related to the anti-government forces. All the more so, it is likely to be supported by the government,” Anthony interrupted before Dave could finish.

Instantly, Dave was stunned and gazed at Anthony in disbelief. However, Anthony looked composed.

Dave said after coming to his senses, “You know... all these.”

“I went out with Thalia these few days and visited many places. Many people are displaced due to Vermillion Base's evil acts. Hence, I collected some information about Vermillion Base to understand it better!” Anthony explained as though it was an easy task.

Dave couldn't believe his ears, but he soon calmed down and nodded. “You're right. Why would you have the thought of destroying Vermillion Base since you know its background?”

“Shouldn't we think of destroying the organization once we understand how evil it is?” Anthony questioned him back.

The next moment, he added, “We won't know who the next victims will be as long as it exists. As such, we can only solve the crux of the problem by destroying it once and for all.”

Dave couldn't help but feel curious and impressed by Anthony's words. His lips curled into a smile when he thought Anthony was different from other kids. “Your temperament and character are exactly like your dad's!”

“Otherwise, I am not fit to be his child!” Anthony said proudly.

Dave nodded and lazily leaned back against the couch. After gazing at Anthony for a moment, he said, “You're indeed very resourceful. However, we can't accomplish it simply by talking about it. Given the sheer size of Vermillion Base, it's immensely difficult to root it out!”

“Yes. It will be difficult if we count on a person or an organization to root Vermillion Base out...” Anthony concurred.

Fiddling with the ring on his finger, Dave replied, “Good that you know.”

Immediately, Anthony proposed, “What about a few organizations teaming up to do it?”

Dave gazed at him upon hearing it. “What do you mean?”

“Mr. Dave, what are the odds of defeating Vermillion Base if we can combine DX and Darknetz?”

Dave eyed him in puzzlement. “What did you say?”

“What? Is there something wrong with it?” Anthony asked him back.

With a wry smile, Dave said, “Anthony, I know you're part of Darknetz. However, you probably don't know the feud between Darknetz and DX. Let me give you an overview—”

“I know!” Before he could finish, Anthony interrupted composedly.

With a doubtful look, Dave asked, “Is that so?”

“It's related to Daddy and Holden, right? I know a bit of it,” Anthony answered helplessly, yet there was a glint of firmness in his eyes.

Dave nodded and said firmly, “In that case, you should know the feud between Darknetz and DX is insoluble. There is no way the two organizations can cooperate!”

Unperturbed, Anthony replied, “It was impossible in the past, but things might already be different now!”

While Dave looked at him in puzzlement, he added, “I will find a way to persuade Darknetz!”

Dave's interest was piqued once Anthony finished. He sat straight and leaned closer toward Anthony. “You sound confident about it. Do you still have a say in Darknetz?”

“To a certain extend!” Anthony answered firmly. At that moment, Dave felt like he was talking with Kenneth.

After a while, Dave narrowed his eyes and said, “You—”

The next moment, Anthony interjected, “Mr. Dave, I'm not at liberty to disclose too much information about Darknetz!”

Dave was rendered speechless.

Judging from Anthony's words, Dave guessed he was a prominent figure in Darknetz.

As far as Dave knew, Darknetz had an ongoing program of training talents since they were young. Nonetheless, he could tell Anthony was not one of them.

In that case, what role does he play in Darknetz? What makes him qualified to join Darknetz?

Although curiosity and doubts overwhelmed him, Dave nodded and said, “All right!”

“Mr. Dave, I want to ask you a question now. If Darknetz is willing to bury the hatchet, at least temporarily, can DX do it too?” Anthony enquired.

Without hesitation, Dave responded, “Of course! I won't dwell on our past grudges if they are willing to set them aside. However, I must remind you that the feud between DX and Darknetz has existed for years. We can't brush it off easily by just communicating with each other. In addition, Darknetz got the short end of the stick back then...”

Anthony frowned once Dave finished. Deep down, he knew it was an immensely difficult task.

However, the longer Vermillion Base existed, the more people would become victims or be displaced because of it.

I have to try no matter what!

After a while, Anthony said resolutely, “I'll find a way to deal with Darknetz!”

Even though Dave nodded in response, he didn't have much hope about the prospect of achieving it. After all, almost everyone knew it was virtually impossible to resolve the feud between the two arch-enemies!

Later, Dave changed the subject of their conversation. “Let's not discuss this for now. Even if both sides cooperate, we can't get rid of Vermillion Base immediately. Our top priority now is to stop your dad and save Nat!”

“How about capturing Boss alive?” Anthony suggested.

Dave was rendered speechless.

Why does the kid keep building castles in the air?
