TOP SECRET: Adventures in the Dark Continent

Chapter 462: A mysterious agreement



booom...

"How the liar and inattentive has already been killed. I'll go to the main topic, did you manage to find the intruder?" The leader waved his hand and the headless corpse caught fire.

It didn't take long for the flames to turn the body to ashes and be blown away by the wind.

"!!!!!!!" No one could believe that there was actually an intruder in the hiding place.

This is unbelievable.

It is necessary to know that there were only two ways to enter the place: The first way is if someone allowed the other person to enter. Otherwise, it was necessary to use the second way, which was to dig a hole in the mountain towards the hideout.

But using the second form was very easy to find out because the mountain would shake and have several signs that it was being excavated. At the same time, it was the most difficult option because the mountain rocks were very hard and difficult to break easily.

Only people with great strength can crack these stones. Breaking and digging was a very insane thing to do.

The rocks only become softer and easier to break in the interior of the mountain.

"Leader, the intruder was not found even after we checked all the houses, alleys and small dark places" One of the soldiers stood in front and reported.

"I see ... If the intruder was not found in these locations. It can only be in five locations. The four of you will go to the four mansions and check if he is there. I will look in my mansion to see where that person is hiding" The leader pointed to the four people in front and ordered.

The four were the four squad leaders who were below the group leader.

"Roger !!!!"

The four squad leaders along with their subordinates went to their respective mansions to search for the intruder.

The leader looked towards their backs with a cold look.

(One of you is cheating on me, but which of you? Or is it more than one? I will find out and punish the traitors) The leader thought. He didn't show it on his face, but internally, he was furious over the betrayal of one of his subordinates.

They were not to be trusted.

To guard them, the leader placed spies within the troops of the four squad leaders to report what they were doing behind his back.

The leader waved his hand and his personal guards surrounded the crowd.

No one could leave the site until the five mansions were verified and the intruder found.

Within the village's five mansions…

The word mansion was not correct, as the place looked like a big house.

The leaders speak the word "mansion" because it increases their superiority over the rest of the group members.

The guards opened all the doors and windows in the house, the curtains were pulled off like any type of cloth that covers something. Everything was opened or pulled out so that it couldn't cover anything.

The lights were turned on to see if any people were hiding with the invisibility skill.

The only problem is that when everything was verified and no trace of the intruder was found.

Thus, the leader thought of three possibilities.

The first possibility was that the invader had left when everyone was summoned to the square.

The second possibility was that he was hiding in the crowd.

The third and final possibility was that he was hiding in one of the five mansions. But after checking the whole mansion, he found nothing. What remained was the other four mansions.

But which one? The leader did not know this answer.

After two full days of searching ...

The people in the village square went for two whole days without eating or drinking water, they were forced to stay in the place for two whole days while the soldiers did the inspections and searched for the invader.

The soldiers searched everywhere in the village, they searched inch by inch. But nothing was found.

This irritated the leader very much because inside his hiding place there was a hidden danger that was unknown to him.

Not knowing what to do, the leader asked for help from some people he knew. In a few days, these people will arrive.

While the leader waited for his guests to arrive ...

At the mansion in the southern region of the village…

The interior was completely messed up and partially destroyed because of the leader's previous orders.

Maids and slaves walk around doing their cleaning and repair tasks.

In the mansion's private room…

As in the other rooms, the place was partially destroyed and disorganized.

The leader of the southern squadron was a middle-aged man with a long scar on his face and chest. He was wearing a set of cloth clothes, which made him look like a wild noble.

His calm and cool aura could be felt, in contrast to his fierce appearance.

Currently, he was sitting on the chair and drinking a glass of wine. The look on his face was serious and thoughtful.

There was only him in the place.

The maids were not allowed to enter.

(What am I going to do now? Should I accept the deal?) He thought. He didn't know what to do at that moment.

One person offered him a very good deal, but he was hesitant to accept it.

If he takes too long, he could miss a big chance. But if the other side fails and he accepts the deal, he will be punished with death.

(This is a very difficult decision to make ... Should I betray the leader in an attempt to gain more wealth and try to take control of the group? Or should I not risk it?) The southern squad leader was in a difficult situation to describe. He was thinking about the pros and cons of the deal before accepting.

(Did the other squad leaders also receive this tempting offer? Or not? This is a difficult thing to find out ...)

It was not just the southern squad leader who received a proposal from an unknown person to try to kill the leader of the Iron Valley Kings group.

The other three also received this proposal.

The four think that this person was the invader that the leader was looking for, but could not find.

How can he hide inside the hiding place without being found? That person had some special power to do that.

But the problem is that the other side was an unknown person that nobody knows.

How will the four decide what to do? Will they accept the deal? Or will they report this unknown person to the group leader? This was one of the most difficult decisions they will have to make in their lives.
