Chapter 804 Someone Has Completed a Level-S Mission?
Lexie and Laylah looked at Gerald in surprise and vice versa.
He thought, they took the mission yesterday and came back so early today. Most likely, they have finished their mission.
“You are efficient indeed,” Gerald smiled.
Yet he did not know what their mission was. If it was at level B, they would be dealing with super experts. Since they were Half-Step Flame Decayers, it would be easy peasy for them.
Gerald was surprised to see them. Yet at the same time, they were shocked to see him.
“Did he… complete the mission?”
Lexie was certain that Gerald had accepted the mission to kill a Flame Decayer.
She thought, seriously? The one was a Flame Decayer. Did Gerald… complete the mission in one day?
“I didn’t expect to meet you again so soon,” Gerald said with a smile.
Lexie found it hard to believe. She looked at Gerald and asked, “Did you complete yesterday’s mission?”
She tried her best to sound calm.
Gerald smiled and said, “Yes. I dealt with him successfully yesterday.”
Lexie and Laylah looked at each other, feeling shocked in each other’s eyes.
And then they immediately collected themselves. Laylah smiled and said, “Then we can go to Rho Guild together. Are you going to accept a new mission?”
Gerald nodded and said, “Yes.”
“Then let’s go up together,” Lexie said.
Gerald nodded. Then the three arrived on the second floor when there was a middle-aged man in Neo’s office.
The man had long hair and a scar on his face. When he saw Gerald and the other two, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Neo said, “You are back already? Have you completed the missions you accepted yesterday?”
“Yes.” Lexie nodded. “It just so happens that we’ve all done our job, so… We are here to hand over. By the way. we want a new mission.”
“You are quite clever. The Four Ancient Families have been looking for someone from Rho Guild. Well, Rho Guild is the only thing in the City of Phoenix out of the Four Ancient Families’ control,” the middle-aged man sitting said lightly. “After becoming a killer, it’s wise to take on simple missions to practice your skills before anything.”
Then Neo said, “Let me introduce you. This is one of my killers as well, and his name is Ezra Milton. You can call him Ezra.
“These three joined us yesterday. I just mentioned them to you. This is Gerald Kenneth, Laylah Sadler, and Lexie Sadler,” Neo introduced to Ezra.
Ezra looked up at Gerald and the others and nodded slightly as a greeting.
“By the way,” Ezra said. “As someone who has some experience, I want to remind you of something. While the organization does not restrict us from taking on any assignment, I urge you not to take on any assignment involving the Four Ancient Families. In this city, the Four Ancient Families rule. If they know what you are up to, you will die.”
Gerald thought of something, but he did not say anything.
He thought, I wonder what Ezra will think if I tell him I only take missions involving the Four Ancient Families
“Then let’s set off,” Neo said.
An hour later, Gerald and the others got out of the car next to the door of the hall where Rho Guild was located. Under Neo’s lead, Gerald and the others wore masks and went to the table where a staff member was at. Neo said, “This is the place to hand over the missions. You can hand over your golden cards. It will take some time to verify the missions, so we can sit over there and wait.”
Gerald and the others nodded.
When they first came here, a few people were sitting here. One of them even mocked Gerald. They figured that those people were waiting here for the verification of their missions.
They handed over the cards and then sat down at a nearby table. The staff quickly brought them some snacks and something to drink. Gerald had a taste of it, and it was quite good.
Ezra glanced at Lexie and Laylah from time to time. Although he tried to pretend that he was indifferent,
After the hover car landed, the door opened, and several figures came out.
The people who came out noticed Gerald and the others. One of them said in a sarcastic tone, “Well, well. Isn’t this the man who asked about level-S missions yesterday? What is it? You completed the level-S mission in one day?”
Gerald glanced at him indifferently.
Lexie was secretly peeking at Gerald. When she saw that Gerald looked calm and had no intention of arguing
with the man, she frowned.
Neo stroked his chin and said, “Jerome, tell Wailer to watch his mouth. He doesn’t want trouble, does he?”
Obviously, Wailer was the codename of the killer who mocked Gerald.
Wailer pursed his lips. After hearing Neo’s order, he turned to the table and said, “I’m here to hand in my mission.”
But no one answered him.
The staff in front of him stared blankly ahead.
“Gorgeous, I’m talking to you. I said I’m here to hand in my mission.” He patted the table.
The staff still did not answer him but seemed to be constantly confirming something. After a while, she swallowed and said, “It’s real. He did it. He completes a level-S mission. It has only been a day, and he has already completed the mission!”
Wailer’s pupils shrank. “Someone has completed a level-S mission?”
Level-S missions all targeted Flame Decayers. There were only a handful of times when killers from Rho Guild completed level-S missions in Rho Guild’s history.
“Did those people make a move?” Wailer could not help but ask.
However, the staff ignored him. She stood up and rushed into the depths of the hall.
