The negotiations took place in the western suburbs of New York. The nearby jungle is dense and the air is fresh, making it a very suitable place for vacation. But at this moment, there were bodyguards in suits with a murderous look on their faces near the villa provided by Downey. The manpower was divided into two groups, one of which was the security personnel who opened the way for Sophia, and the other group of vicious and domineering strong men in suits were members of the Skeleton Army. Compared with Sophia's bodyguards, these strong men have sharper eyes and burlier bodies. At first glance, it seems that he has experienced real fire and live ammunition, and he has the momentum gained from tough battles.
The two sides have similar numbers, but the Skeleton Army clearly has the advantage in terms of momentum and pomp. After less than three minutes of confrontation, several bodyguards on Sophia's side showed subtle expressions on their faces. I don't know if it's because I'm afraid, or I'm intimidated by the enemy's strong aura.
In short, Sofia's carefully selected security personnel, whether in terms of overall quality or courage, cannot compete with the skeleton army.
Sofia's motorcade slowly drove through the gate and stopped at the door of the building. As soon as the main car appeared, the group of security guards in neat suits gave way to the road. The leader even opened the door for Sophia in a respectful manner.
After Sophia got out of the car, Xiao Zheng also walked out of the door with a calm expression and glanced at the whole place calmly.
Hey. Good guy. The battle is really big.
Counting the more than forty armed security personnel brought by Sofia, there were nearly a hundred people piled at the entrance of the villa. At first glance, it is completely dark and majestic.
The appearance of Sophia briefly broke the dull atmosphere. The leader of the Skeleton Legion also came over immediately and said in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "Miss Sophia, our boss is already waiting in the conference hall. Please come in."
The address was provided by Xiao Zheng, but it looked more like the territory of the Skeleton Legion. The ability to focus on customers is quite outstanding and can adapt to a new environment in the shortest time. And occupy favorable terrain and position. It is indeed the largest and most influential illegal mercenary army in the world. Eye-opening.
Sophia did not refuse. After nodding lightly, accompanied by Xiao Zheng, Ruth, and several attendants, she walked slowly into the villa and headed to the conference hall.
The conference hall is huge. In the center is an oval desk that can seat about ten people. Surrounded by two sofas, there is a coffee table in the middle. It looks quite impressive.
As soon as everyone entered the conference hall, a middle-aged man in a black suit stood up and walked over. There was blazing arrogance on his face, but he also maintained a polite smile.
"Miss Sophia. I've been waiting for a long time."
The middle-aged man came up and greeted Sophia politely. Sophia, who had been silent for several months, nodded calmly without exchanging pleasantries, and walked around the table to her exclusive seat. Then he sat down slowly.
Seeing that Sophia had skipped the red tape, the middle-aged man also smiled slightly and returned to his seat.
Unlike the three people sitting next to Sophia and nearly eight people standing behind her, there was only one man wearing glasses sitting next to the middle-aged man. There were only four people behind him. One of them was also responsible for serving tea and water, and seemed quite capable.
Xiao, who was sitting on the left side of Sophia, was getting the first-hand information handed to him by Ruth, the information on the leader of the skeleton army sitting opposite.
His real name is unknown, but his code name is Canglong. male. Thirty-six years old.
Gorgeous mixed race. But he grew up in a remote town in South Africa. Starting from carrying out the first mission with a few guns, it has been developing for nearly twenty years. It is the largest mercenary organization in Africa and even half of the world. He has over a thousand mercenaries under his command. It has advanced weapons comparable to those of the military. Since entering Fox Hunting to seek greater development, he has become the representative of Fox Hunting in Africa. He is cruel and violent, and has a bad reputation in the local area, but he is a fierce man that everyone talks about.
The slightly polite middle-aged man sitting next to him is Marshall, the strategist-level figure of the Skeleton Legion and Canglong's top aide.
According to the information, Canglong's joining Fox Hunt included a series of important decisions, all of which were made by Marshall behind the scenes, and he was Canglong's most trusted confidant. Presumably, this time the door-to-door negotiation ended with Marshall's full support.
Putting down the information, Xiao Zheng had a calm smile on his face and took a puff of the e-cigarette, showing a harmless smile.
After several cups of hot tea were served, Sophia pushed the tea away without leaving a trace and stared at Canglong with cold eyes. Signaling him to start.
Faced with Sophia's attitude, Canglong did not show a surly look, but said unexpectedly: "Miss Sophia, please rest assured that I will not poison the tea. If I want to die alone, I will do so straightforwardly. End his life. Instead of playing dirty tricks.”
Isn’t this statement an insinuation of Sofia’s despicable method of murdering European representatives? If it hadn't been for this battle, it would have taken a lot of effort for Sofia to take over all of Europe.
Since Sophia couldn't speak, she just frowned and glanced at Canglong indifferently.
Xiao Zheng, on the other hand, slowly picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "Tokyo Sayama tea, one of the three famous teas in Japan. I didn't expect Mr. Soryu to be a tea lover."
"In the eyes of outsiders, do I, Canglong, have my hands stained with blood, a man who is crazy about blood and alcohol?" Canglong said with a calm look.
"Aren't you?" Xiao Zheng asked resolutely.
When Canglong heard this, a subtle smile flashed across his brows, and he nodded: "Yes."
"That's not a misunderstanding." Xiao Zheng took another sip of bright green Sayama tea.
Cang Long glanced at Xiao Zheng with interest, pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Who are you?"
"Miss Sophia has been ill recently, which has caused a problem with her throat. Therefore, I will be the representative in this negotiation, and I will speak on behalf of Miss Sophia with full authority." Xiao Zheng said calmly.
"You still haven't answered my boss's question." Marshall, who had always remained silent, asked. "Who are you?"
"Xiao Zheng." Xiao Zheng answered straightforwardly.
"Xiao Zheng?" Cang Long raised his eyebrows, having no impression of this name at all.
"Xiao Zheng?" Marshall said slowly. "Codenamed Judge. The strongest man in the mercenary world. The world's top killer."
Hearing this, Canglong nodded slightly and said, "Three years ago, I asked someone to contact you. I hope your team can join the Skeleton Army."
"I'm too expensive, you can't afford it." Xiao Zheng said lightly.
"So you took Miss Sophia's 100 million pounds to assassinate Jones?" Marshall said tit for tat. Directly expose Xiao Zheng's past.
Xiao Zheng smiled slightly and said calmly: "Mr. Marshall, you can eat whatever you want. But you can't talk nonsense."
Marshall shook his head lightly: "This is our internal negotiation at Fox Hunt. As an outsider, Mr. Judge shouldn't be involved, right?"
