The Legendary Man novel Chapter 985

The Legendary Man Chapter 985-Jonathan picked up his phone and gave Karl a call.

“Get it done. This matter has nothing to do with Asura’s Office, so make sure you don’t leave any traces.”

Dark Special Forces was a peripheral organization of Asura’s Office that emerged to the forefront after Karl’s betrayal.

Even now, the list of Dark Special Forces members was still kept secret. Other than the Intelligence Unit, no one else in Asura’s Office liaised with them.

Even the Intelligence Unit’s contact with them simply revolved around providing information.

Ever since its establishment, Jonathan never meant to make it part of Asura’s Office.

After all, Dark Special Forces was a unit meant to work behind the scenes.

As a military organization that covered the entire country, Asura’s Office was supposed to be placed under Yaleview’s command.

However, the influence wielded by the eight respectable families and other factions in Yaleview was just too huge. Even Zedfield couldn’t escape from the clutches of those families.

That was the reason why Asura’s Office adopted a non-violent yet uncooperative attitude toward Yaleview, choosing to act unilaterally most of the time.

In spite of that, as an official organization in the eyes of the public, Asura’s Office had to make sure all its activities were above board.

Clandestine operations were naturally unacceptable.

Consequently, Jonathan established Dark Special Forces just to execute such missions.

In other words, Dark Special Forces acted as Asura’s Office’s arm in the shadow. Hidden behind the scenes, they were capable of doing anything to achieve their objective.

What Jonathan had just done was order an attack on the eight respectable families.

The eight respectable families each had their respective areas of coverage. For example, one could tell from the accent, outfit, and techniques of the Mallory family that their base was in Xandaschuttes of Centum Mountain.

As for the Leeson family, who had a belligerent demeanor, their ancestral land was based in Doveston.

The Osborne family covered Drieso; the Salladay family, Huxville; the Blackwood family, Yorksland; so on and so forth…

At that moment, the intelligence available only showed that the Osborne family was outside Quadfield due to the release of Josephine. As for the rest of the respectable families, all of them had gone into hiding.

In truth, Jonathan’s inability to find them wasn’t the reason why he didn’t seek them out. He was actually afraid to do so.

For example, one could tell from the accent of the Leeson family cultivators that they were from Horbah, albeit there was no information to verify their exact location.

Nonetheless, it wouldn’t be difficult to locate them. One could divide Horbah into tens of thousands of areas and send tens of thousands of intelligence officers on-site for investigations.

Once any of the intelligence officers didn’t report back, one could quickly narrow down the location.

Even though such an investigation was massive and time-consuming, one could still locate the ancestral land of the respective ancestral families.

After all, regardless of how secretive their hideout was, they were still somewhere on the planet. As long as one could comb every inch of it, there was no reason for them not to be discovered.

That said, this was nothing but a hypothesis, for reality made such a plan impractical to execute.

Firstly, Asura’s Office didn’t have that many intelligence officers to begin with, and one couldn’t just recruit an intelligence officer off the street.

Every single one of them needed a huge amount of time for training so that they could be proficient in espionage, firearms, equipment, and more.

If one were to only look at intelligence-gathering skills and set aside combat skills, these people were a cut above the professional military.

An intelligence officer was capable of blending in among social elites as well as the gangsters in the underworld and adapting their speech according to their audience.

On top of that, all of them were equipped with respective techniques that enabled them to gather and analyze information efficiently.
