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.
âYou are efficient indeed,â 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.
âDid he... complete the mission?â
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?
âI didnât expect to meet you again so soon,â Gerald said with a smile.
Lexie found it hard to believe. She looked at Gerald and asked, âDid you complete yesterdayâs mission?â
She tried her best to sound calm.
Gerald smiled and said, âYes. I dealt with him successfully yesterday.â
Lexie and Laylah looked at each other, feeling shocked in each otherâs eyes.
And then they immediately collected themselves. Laylah smiled and said, âThen we can go to Rho Guild together. Are you going to accept a new mission?â
Gerald nodded and said, âYes.â
âThen letâs go up together,â Lexie said.
Gerald nodded. Then the three arrived on the second floor when there was a middle-aged man in Neoâs 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, âYou are back already? Have you completed the missions you accepted yesterday?â
âYes.â Lexie nodded. âIt just so happens that weâve all done our job, so... We are here to hand over. By the way. we want a new mission.â
âYou 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 Familiesâ control,â the middle-aged man sitting said lightly. âAfter becoming a killer, itâs wise to take on simple missions to practice your skills before anything.â
Then Neo said, âLet me introduce you. This is one of my killers as well, and his name is Ezra Milton. You can call him Ezra.
âThese three joined us yesterday. I just mentioned them to you. This is Gerald Kenneth, Laylah Sadler, and Lexie Sadler,â Neo introduced to Ezra.
Ezra looked up at Gerald and the others and nodded slightly as a greeting.
âBy the way,â Ezra said. âAs 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.â
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 âThen letâs set off,â 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 Neoâs lead, Gerald and the others wore masks and went to the table where a staff member was at. Neo said, âThis 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.â
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, Gerald still noticed his gaze.
In fact, Ezra had been peeking at the girls ever since they got in the car.
Yet that made sense. After all, Lexie and Laylah were both top beauties, and they could be compared with those Misses Charm from Worldly Wonderland.
Neo said with a smile, âWhat level of missions did you complete?â
He was a bit curious. The missions that Gerald and the girls completed determined how much commission he could get.
Ezra indifferently said, âI completed a level-A mission, which took me five days. After all, I dealt with a Half-Step Flame Decayer, and it was quite tricky.â
There was a hint of flaunting in his tone.
Gerald was a bit amused. He thought, Ezra is a proud man, yet he wants Lexie and Laylahâs attention at the same time. I am a bystander, and he looks funny in my eyes.
I can say for sure that though he looks aloof, when it comes to relationships, he is a simp Sure enough, everyone can be a simp, and those Half-Step Flame Decayers are no exception.
Neo said, thrilled, âLevel-A? Then I can get a commission of 10 thousand golorbs.â
Ezra smiled Lexie smiled and said, âYou will know when you receive your commission laterâ
Neo said, âYou are quite mysterious, arenât you?â
Neo had a smile on his face. Thanks to Ezraâs mission, he could collect a decent sum of money In fact, as an upper-class person, Neo ran a hover car repair factory, but his income was only thousands of golorbs a month. Commission from Rho Guild was his main source of income.
âHiss Suddenly, a sound rang out. Gerald noticed that the top of the hall suddenly spread out on both sides, and a hover car slowly dropped down from above.
Seeing that, Gerald was slightly stunned. He was almost certain that Rho Guild was built underground.
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, âWell, well. Isnât this the man who asked about level-S missions yesterday? What is it? You completed the level-S mission in one day?â
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, âJerome, tell Wailer to watch his mouth. He doesnât want trouble, does he?â
Obviously, Wailer was the codename of the killer who mocked Gerald.
Wailer pursed his lips. After hearing Neoâs order, he turned to the table and said, âIâm here to hand in my mission.â
But no one answered him.
The staff in front of him stared blankly ahead.
âGorgeous, Iâm talking to you. I said Iâm here to hand in my mission.â 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, âItâs real. He did it. He completes a level-S mission. It has only been a day, and he has already completed the mission!â
Wailerâs pupils shrank. âSomeone has completed a level-S mission?â
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 Guildâs history.
âDid those people make a move?â Wailer could not help but ask.
However, the staff ignored him. She stood up and rushed into the depths of the hall.
