Chapter 1209: To the third one

For the next few days, the whole planet was in turmoil and all of it was caused by Sam, Noah, and Kumar.

The first thing they did after handing over their first target in the Water crystal city is to go after the second target and when they reached the city he was supposed to be in, the target is still present there without escaping.

The information about the kidnapping of the first target didn’t spread fast and it seems like the Blackwood merchant group didn’t leak anything yet.

The trio is relieved and because of this, their second job became a lot easier.

Their second target is actually good at disguising himself and is leading double lives within the city. Unlike the first target who occasionally came to the city for his own safety, the second guy occasionally left the city.

He has two identities within the city and one of them turned out to be an employee of the Purple Sky Merchant group. Another large Merchant group that happened to be on par with the Blackwood merchant group.

They have similar network levels and they cover this area of the planet. The second identity he has is of a miner in the spirit stone mine owned by the Myriad beast sect.

The space gate leading outside is not within the city, rather it is in the depth of mine shafts through which he would access the outside world.

And he only goes through that door once a week and takes care of all the operations he needs to take care of and comes back within two days. He would then wait another week to sell all of them through the Purple Sky and go back.

This is his daily routine and according to the first target, currently, that guy is outside and would be returning that very night or the next morning.

So, the trio decided to make an early trip so that they could finish this off easily and go for the next target.

And to their surprise, this went easier than they thought.

The first thing they did is kidnap three miners and disguise themselves before they scouted the mine-shafts along with the shadow mice.

After the scouting party was over, Sam used his special formation surveillance technique and the bat puppets to locate the formation.

They went to the space gate formation that was completely hidden and was placed in the middle of the walls with complete disguise.

Noah and Kumar set up the traps while Sam started making inscription arrays to modify the formation.

After the preparations were done, all they had to do was wait.

So, wait they did.

After waiting through the whole night, at dawn, the formation was finally activated and a middle-aged man who looked a lot younger than the first target appeared in the middle of it.

He seemed to have been fatigued a bit as he stretched his body for a moment and leisurely tried to walk out of the formation.

She held a large auction and tasks to make a big deal about the whole thing regarding the long-lasting contract and made sure that the Snake fang group won.

Now, she is the representative of the Snake Fang group and she is also the representative of the Myriad beast sect too.

With this, she would also get a lot of commission for each sale the Snake Fang group makes.

This also made their situation a bit tricky.

Even though the five organizations are ruling the whole organization, the merchant groups are not exactly some small fries.

The larger merchant groups have ties from the other realms and they even have contacts with some more powerful organizations. If things go south, the organizations here might not be able to endure the heat without losing something at least.

So, it is not a good thing to provoke the merchant groups.

The trio went to the city to scout and get some information on the lady so that they could proceed with their plan, but it didn’t go so well, because as soon as they entered this city, the first news that caught their attention is the news regarding the disappearance of the first two representatives and the news is actually being spread by the Blackwood and Purple Sky organizations.

The trio was surprised and they immediately got into an inn to have a meeting.

"What do you think happened. It has only been two days since the second one disappeared and the news spread like this?" Kumar asked in surprise.

"It is not the two days that we need to be surprised about. The Water crystal city didn’t have any of such news when we started, but the news spread here like wildfire." Noah replied and went into deep thought.

Sam also didn’t understand why the information spread like this.

Right before they left Water Crystal city, they didn’t hear anything regarding this. There is not a sign. They even thought it was weird that the Blackwood and the Purple Sky immediately didn’t blame the Fiend tribe and just washed their hands off of this matter right after the targets disappeared.

But the Blackwood didn’t even release any form of news regarding their attack, only the other merchant groups spread the news.

Now, it seems like they are planning something after this happened.

As they discussed various possibilities, they finally concluded the most possible scenario.

The two merchant groups might have been royally pissed off with how easily Sam and the others took them away. So, they might be trying to get them back now by doing this. Even if they are not directly involved this spread of information is enough to make the third target vigilant.

There is also another thing that confused them though.

At least in the case of the first target’s case, they made a huge mess, but in the second target’s case, they didn’t even show their faces and just kidnapped the guy directly from under their noses. They should have taken a few days to realize that at least.

But surprisingly, they just came to the conclusion that the candidate was kidnapped.
