Chapter 114: Red coral city Cleared
One month passed since Sam came to the Red coral city and he did things carefully and stayed low-key.
Right now, he got some necessary info on the businesses of the Arena and particularly the income through the gambling on the fights, he was completely excited to get his hands on them and right now, he is thinking of a way to deal with the two officials who has connections with Black water.
Yes, he got the news on the two people, in Falcon cliff city, Sam got all the news in less than ten days due to the coordinated work of the ten mice, but now, the five of them are taking more time.
All the plans he is making to not to get suspected are only taking more time.
Now, Sam is inside the inn and in front of him is a small glass container with the weird liquid he made earlier and right now, he dropped some drugs in it and started shaking.
After that, a shadow mouse appeared on the table and stored away the bottle into the spatial ring. This spatial ring is not a normal one though, it is made of the space jade and is now acting as a collar around the mouse.
Even though, the shadow mice can use the spatial ring, they have to bear a high level of mental stress, but the space jade doesn't have that problem, so even when the space is little, it is still beneficial.
The shadow mice are rather clever and they got their orders.
That night, the whole upper echelons of the Count city were in uproar, two of their staff are dead, only the count himself was silent because, after he confirmed that the deaths of the two officials, a letter came to him out of nowhere.
He looked at the content of the letter and was startled, he doesn't have time care about this incident and went to his personal residence and refused audience with anyone.
He stealthily escaped from the mansion and went to a rundown inn and snuck into a room.
Sam is sitting on the bed as he watched the Count slowly coming inside. The latter dressed in a very normal set of clothes.
"Greetings Sir Sam."
The other party immediately greeted him.
Sam has sent a letter with the seal provided by the marquis himself, the seal has some spiritual energy signature which is identical to the marquis' seal, so the count never thought it was a duplicate.
Sam gestured the other party to take a seat and said.
"I am the one who dealt with the two officials. They are in connection with the Arena and that is the boss of the two big gangs. I don't know how much info you have on them, but take a look at this."
Sam passed the monthly report on them and the count skimmed through the details as his face paled with shock.
"I don't know what you will do, I can deal with them myself, but I don't want to expend my energy, so I want you to deal with them as soon as possible and most possibly tomorrow. Take this."
Sam passed a spatial ring which is full of liquid that he made after mixing it with the drugs.
"This is the toxin I created with their drugs as base, if you can make the great mage consume a large amount of this at the same time, you can deal with him easily." Sam explained.
"Thank you, sir Sam., I don't know how you got the information on this, but I will definitely deal with them as soon as possible." The Count replied.
"Don't be too quick to thank me yet. I have another which I didn't show you yet and I am not interested in showing you this.
The loot of all these people doesn't belong to you. But I will let you have all the loot except the Novice peak and the great mage experts.
And you don't have the permission to go through the lockers of the Arena and the other organisations. I have marquis' orders to take all of them back, that is the punishment for your negligence on this part.
If the accounts don't tally with the report I have, all the officials can forgo their titles and can prepare to serve their time in the prison."
The Count face turned red in embarrassment, he thought that he could hit it big from this loot and increase his contributions, but now, his plans are gone. He agreed with Sam and left the place.
After that a shadow mouse followed the count to keep an eye on him and another shadow mouse stood in front of Sam.
"Steal the spatial rings inside the locker as soon as the battle broke out and bring them here." The mouse nodded and followed the Count.
Now two mice followed the mice, and one of them is to keep watch and other one is to safely bring back the important loot from the locker. Even though, the count might not dare to go against the orders, Sam doesn't want to take the risk.
If the meteorite sand and the millions of the spirit stones slip by just like that, he might not be able to get them back.
Next day, something big will happen but Sam didn't plan to rest tonight.
"Jack, we are leaving."
Sam and Jack started walking, they went to one of the contact points of the Snake head, the other party is just a Novice Level 1. Both of them subdued and Sam fed them the liquid then he took out some powder of the drug pill and sprayed around.
Both of them quickly left the dead body and went to another contact point…
After dealing with several snakehead gang members, they changed their targets to the Tiger fish members, but this time they didn't use poison rather, they slit their throats.
By midnight, the news passed over all the gang members, some impulsive ones who lost their friends started fights with the opposite gang members.
Before the matter reached the upper echelons there are already casualties. By dawn the fights surfaced to the public and still going on, the orders from the higher ups aren't even effective anymore as the fights went to personal level.
The great mage in charge at Arena is frowning and just as he wanted to forcefully supress the war, a news brought him head ache.
The Count visited him and is requesting for audience, saying that there is a business deal.
He cannot decline him and can only pray that it would be over fast.
But when they sat down together, the count took out some rare wine jars. And the other party was even considerate to prepare a whole wine jar for each and the Arena in charge wasn't even given a chance to reject it.
But only after he emptied half of the wine, he felt that something is wrong.
Before he could realise what is wrong, the count attacked him on the spot. Soon a battle erupted there and the gang members flew in panic.
The upper echelons of the Count mansion all swarmed into the Arena head quarters and started attacking all of them, with so many peak stage and Late stage experts, soon the Arena was subdued.
But nobody dared to take the loot all of them only stood there as the subordinates collected the corpses.
The city guards swarmed the city and started dealing with the gangsters. By the evening the whole city undergone a crack down and was cleaned of gangs.
The remaining measly members who are lucky enough to survive, immediately escaped from the city.
Sam walked towards the pile of dead bodies along with Jasmine and Jack.
They started collecting the spatial rings, the main three rings that are hidden in the locker are already in his hands, so he just took all the remaining scrolls and took them.
After that all of the went to the Count mansion and Sam said.
"From marquis' orders I have to bring all the loot from the gangs but since all the officials and city guards worked together to catch them, I will let you guys have the loot from all the small gangs and the small fries of the Big two organisations.
But there is one important thing that you guys have to take note of and that is the information of us three involved in this matter and even our arrival in this city has to be sealed."
Speaking up to this point he handed s doc.u.ment with permission to maintain the confidentiality and also an order to seal of the information.
"With this, you don't have any obligation to reveal the information unless the marquis himself asks of it.
I have all the records of your corruption. If my appearance of here leaks out and I found any evidence no matter how minor it maybe pointing out to this city, I will handover them to the marquis."
All the officials immediately became tensed. They didn't dare think that Sam is just bluffing after all, all the info on the two gang members are given to them by him.
Even they who are living in the city for decades weren't able to get the info on the gangs but Sam got it in a month, so they don't dare think that he wouldn't have any info on their activities.
That day, Sam, Jack and Jasmine exited the Red coral city and set forth to the next count city.
The Indigo sea city.
