Breeze Ballroom, second floor cafe.
Lumian walked over to Baron Brinell quite casually and sat down.
Not only did he fail to show any respect or humility, he even lacked polite respect, as if both parties were on the same level.
This made Louis, who was standing behind Baron Brinell, secretly shake his head.
He had seen too many similar people, but their final fate was either that they were sent to the police headquarters by the Sava Party, or that they were seriously injured in a gunfight and lost their abilities, and had to wag their tails like dogs in exchange for the support of the gang. Some even died for various reasons and were thrown into the depths of the underground world or put into wooden barrels filled with stones and sunk to the bottom of the Cerrozo River.
"Good evening, Baron." Lumian greeted with a smile.
Baron Brinell did not show any trace of anger on his face. He took a puff of his mahogany pipe and chatted casually:
"Where did you go this afternoon?"
"Ground."
Lumian was like the corpse that drank the "prophecy potion". He only answered the questions asked by Deng Fang without further explanation.
If "Little ***" Janna and "Red Boots" Franca had not concealed from him that they had killed the pervert and saved the former, then his answer now was a symbol of being frank enough.
Baron Brinell was stunned for a second, but did not ask any further questions. Mosha held the mahogany pipe in his hand and said:
"I have something for you to do."
Without waiting for Lumian to ask, he explained with a smile:
"I am very optimistic about you and believe that you can become a very important member of our Sava Party and take on key tasks."
"But my support alone is not enough. You must demonstrate your abilities that most people admire and make contributions that they all recognize."
The carrot tied to the front of the donkey? Lumien sneered inwardly.
"whats the matter?"
Baron Brinell put down his mahogany pipe, took a sip of coffee, and said in a soothing tone:
"Attack any important member of the Sting Gang. It would be best if they were severely injured, but killing them on the spot is also acceptable."
Lumian laughed.
"You told me just a few days ago to be patient and not to make things worse and trigger a full-scale conflict between the Sting Gang and us."
"Now you are not worried about this happening, and you are not worried about being targeted by the police?"
Although he had intended to wait for the "Hammer" At of the Stinger Gang, he could not be treated like a fool by Baron Brinell.
Baron Brinell nodded with satisfaction:
"You are much smarter than the people around me."
I've been observing the reaction of the Sting Gang these past two days, and I found that they really have no intention of retaliating against you, at least not for the time being.
"This shows what?"
"It means they are very afraid of us, the Savoy Party." Lumian joked.
This is really a joke. If the Sting Gang was afraid of the Sava Party, they would never be able to develop and become the second largest gang in the Honest Market Area.
Baron Brinell shook his head:
"In the past, they would have retaliated in kind or made us, the Sawa Party, pay a greater price than just paying for medical expenses.
"Also, after Margot's death, they only made a scene on the surface. They didn't actually do anything too extreme to attract a strong crackdown from the police. It seemed more like they wanted to create chaos and find the real assassin."
"The continuous abnormalities make me believe that the Sting Gang is preparing to do something very big, which is why they are so patient and restrained.
I'm not sure if what they are about to do will affect us in the Savoy Party, but we can't just sit here and wait for the answer.
He still has some brains...Lumian reluctantly praised Baron Brinell in his heart.
He smiled and asked:
"You want me to kill their important members and observe their reactions?"
"If they can still tolerate it, then the problem is very serious. Do we have to actively provoke a full-scale conflict and force them to expose their problems?"
Baron Brinell laughed:
“I like talking to smart people.”
How about taking over this matter
Although he used a questioning tone, his posture, eyes and actions all showed that it was an order.
If orders were not obeyed, the Savoyards would no longer provide protection.
Lumian laughed:
"I need information on all the important members of the Sting Gang, including their names, appearances, abilities, characteristics, whether they have immediate family members and wives..."
Louis, who was standing behind Baron Brinell, was shocked and stunned when he heard this.
Why are you asking about the Sting Gang leader's family? Do you want to use them
There is an unspoken rule among the major gangs in Trier that is not explicitly stated but everyone is willing to abide by unless there are special circumstances, which is that they will not target each other's family members who have joined the gang.
Most of these people have parents, wives and children. It is a slaughter without any bottom line. None of them can escape, and everyone will be in danger.
Secondly, he was a low-level gangster, so his family was not worth dealing with, but when he reached Baron Brinell’s position, the situation of his family was a secret, few people knew about it, and it was not in the honest market area.
Third, people who have a certain status in the gang can basically be described as cruel and ruthless. Threatening them with family members will have no effect and will only completely infuriate them.
Fourth, if a family massacre really occurred, it would definitely be reported in the news, angering the top brass of the Police Department and leading to a strong crackdown.
Therefore, only in the process of destroying an entire force, in order not to leave the seeds of hatred and to deter other gangs, will they deal with the family of the enemy leader.
Right from the start, Charles asked what the immediate family members and wives of important members of the Sting Gang wanted to do
Baron Brinell stared at Lumian for a few seconds, then slowly smiled:
"The boss of the Sting Gang, named Roger, nicknamed "Black Scorpion", lives at 126 Market Avenue. I don't know if he has a wife or any immediate family. Even if he does, they are no longer in the Market District, or even in Trier.
"He possesses some evil spells and miraculous powers. Even I don't dare to face him."
Baron Brinell used this to tell Lumian that the Black Scorpion was very strong and it was best not to target him, otherwise death would be the only outcome.
Evil spells... A spellcasting type of Beyonder? Judging from the fact that Roger was able to subdue Maggot, he is at least Sequence 7, and he might even have magical items or Beyonder devices... If this type of Beyonder is not very strong and has no special ability to save his life, then we can use traps, close-range assassinations, and other methods to target him. If he is not weak physically and is strong in close combat, or has the paper figurine-like death-substitution technique like Leah, then I have almost no hope of winning, unless I use the "transfer technique" to change their fortunes in advance and make him unlucky enough... Lumian's thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning and then disappeared quickly.
He nodded and said:
"What about the rest?"
Baron Brinell took a puff of his pipe and said slowly:
“The Sting Gang originally had four very powerful members, who were only slightly weaker than us in the market area. But after you killed Maggot, Wilson who took over was very weak, so their strength has dropped a lot.
"Black Scorpion" Roger's deputy was "Bald" Harman. It was he and Roger who first came to the market area, opened the Mill Ballroom, and slowly gathered a group of people to establish the Sting Gang.
“He’s a very good fighter, very good at fighting, and he’s no weaker than Maggot in this respect. At the same time, he’s shown some strange abilities, like sometimes he can withstand someone else’s knife attack and only suffer minor injuries, like he’ll suddenly become violent, like he’s taken some kind of drug, like he can make others feel terrified, and he also has a knife coated with poison.
"He was very cruel, had no family, and no mistress, but was very interested in women, often hanging out with the streetwalkers that the Sting Gang controlled.
"He usually lives in the home of Roger the Black Scorpion. When he wants to look for a woman, he will go to the market and find a relatively clean hostel or hotel.
Lumien listened quietly,
Gradually an idea came to mind.
"There is a trap that works very well against 'Bald' Haman."
“How did Haman acquire such strong defense that he only suffered minor injuries after being stabbed? This shows that he is likely to resort to injury in exchange for victory and will rely more on this strength.
"In that case, I can give him this opportunity, but it will be Corrupted Mercury that will only cause him minor injuries.
"Even minor injuries will bleed!"
Baron Brinell continued:
The person who manages most of the dancers in the Sting Gang is "Short Candlestick" Castina. She is from Feynaport and was abducted to Trier to be a dancer. Later, she became the mistress of "Black Scorpion" Roger.
"Shorty Candlestick" was her nickname when she was a dancer, describing her short stature.
Lumian recalled the appearance of the short-legged candlestick and roughly grasped Castina's appearance.
"Castina rarely took action, but the few times she did, she showed strong fighting ability. When facing the obedient dancers, she was cold and cruel. Perhaps she had forgotten the pain she had suffered in the past."
Baron Brinell commented politely, "She lives in the villa at 19 Nightingale Street. We don't know which floor or room she lives in. She often goes to the home of Roger the Black Scorpion."
Lumian never believed that the gangsters had a true conscience.
No matter how righteous, loyal, and caring they appear to be, they are just a few wild flowers dotted in a puddle of mud. Their true nature should be sought in the victims, such as the dancers, the street prostitutes, the ordinary people persecuted by loan sharks, and the vendors they blackmailed.
Lord Brinell introduced the last leader of the Sting Gang:
“Iron Hammer” At was originally a member of our Savoy Party. He was courageous, smart, and strong. I was also very optimistic about him and was planning to recommend him to the boss. However, he betrayed us, joined the Sting Gang, and soon gained extraordinary abilities.
"I suspect he took a Warrior-path potion that is already Sequence 8. This can be inferred from the fact that he has grown a lot taller, now almost 1.9 meters tall, and his behavior during the conflict.
"Hammer" is used to describe his fist as hard and powerful as a hammer. He usually fights with bare hands, but he is also good with pistols and daggers.
"His parents have been dead for several years. He has no brothers, sisters, wife or children. He lives at 25 Cobblestone Street next to Honest Market, where there are a lot of Sting Gang members."
"Fighter?" Will Beyonder characteristics be released after death? Lumian nodded and said to Baron Brinell:
"I also need their general pattern of action, and a pistol, enough bullets, and a weapon I can carry with me. A dagger, a short sword, a trident, or an axe will do."
"No problem, I'll ask Louis to send it to you tomorrow morning." Baron Brinell nodded with satisfaction.
After watching Charles walk out of the cafe, Louis lowered his voice and said:
"Baron, do you really want him to deal with the leader of the Sting Gang?"
Baron Brinell laughed:
Didn't you hear my explanation just now? I didn't deceive him in this matter.
"It's just that the leaders of the Sting Gang are not easy to deal with, and with our defense, no matter if he wins with difficulty and needs our treatment and protection, or fails and is almost torn apart but is saved by us, we can always beat down his arrogance and make him obedient."
