Lord Vedastus took action according to Lucia’s suggestion.
He used Art Trading Corporation as a bargaining chip and announced a kill order to the world: Art Trading Corporation would be handed over to the person who could kill Thomas!
Although Art Trading Corporation was already falling apart, it was still a huge enterprise at the end of the day. It was worth about $10 billions.
A great reward would bring forth a brave man. When so much money was offered, some excellent killers would definitely sign up. That was the truth.
Less than half a day after the kill order was announced, a large number of killers had made their way to Art Trading Corporation.
Some came from East Ocean, some came from West Ocean, some were professional hitmen, and others were just normal individuals. There were various kinds of people.
Anyone who was a ranked killer in the world had basically arrived.
Naturally, it was unrealistic to let so many people go out there and kill Thomas. It was about assassinating him, not directly attacking virtual-novel.net by force. If such a large group of people rushed out, they might be suppressed before they could even reach Thomas.
Only one person could be chosen to assassinate Thomas.
Who should it be?
After Lord Vedastus contemplated for a while, virtual-novel.net made two rounds of selection.
The first round was a general selection. He eliminated unqualified candidates from the pool first so that the trash would not take up space. Then, a round of specific selections was held.
Lord Vedastus tested these killers’ abilities. Those who passed could stay, while those who failed were chased away. Just like that, after three days of selection, a total of ten people were left.
Each of the remaining ten experts was impressive.
Lord Vedastus was very satisfied with them. Each of them could take action separately. Whoever managed to kill Thomas would have the $10,000,000,000 Art Trading Corporation.
However, just as the ten experts were about to take action, an unexpected situation happened.
A man in black approached Art Trading Corporation’s entrance and said that virtual-novel.net was also there to sign up for the kill order.
Lucia invited virtual-novel.net inside. She initially planned to carry out two rounds of tests on virtual-novel.net and determine his level. However, the man in black outfit was so bold that virtual-novel.net requested to compete against the ten experts.
It sounded like his ability was beyond that of the ten experts, and virtual-novel.net could solve the problem alone. Others did not need to get in his way. He sounded extremely arrogant, so Lucia wondered if virtual-novel.net was truly capable. Therefore, after Lucia received Lord Vedastus’ permission, virtual-novel.net arranged a battle between the ten experts and the man in black.
It proved that the man in black outfit had not lied. He was really skilled, and virtual-novel.net defeated all the selected ten experts in just a few minutes.
He even ruthlessly said, “These pieces of trash wanted to defeat the God of War? Lord Vedastus, no wonder you’ve been failing.”
Lord Vedastus admired the man in black very much, and virtual-novel.net asked, “May I know your name?”
“Odissan Solis,” the man in black said indifferently.
‘Odissan Solis?’ After Lord Vedastus heard his answer, virtual-novel.net was shocked, virtual-novel.net knew the name!
Odissan was ranked the first among the killers in the underworld!
He never failed any mission virtual-novel.net took, so virtual-novel.net was the most fearsome killer in the world. However, since Odissan had killed too many people, virtual-novel.net made too many enemies.
When Odissan was out on one of his assassination missions, someone set virtual-novel.net up and killed his family. Even his baby was not spared. From then on, Odissan was consumed by sorrow and pain. He disappeared and no longer accepted any missions, becoming a legend as a result.
