Chapter 110: Divide the work (2/2)
But Sam didn't think so. Yes, they can do whatever they want. Those underground bosses might not be able to retaliate, but they sure as hell can hide until they leave.
After all, for Sam and his team, this is just a small mission but for those goons, their lives are at stake. One can guess, who will be more patient.
So, Sam decided to take a more subtle approach regarding this. At least until he got all the info he wants.
As for if there is no underground activity in the village, that is an impossible case.
Even if there are ten people struck in a place and two people are ones with superior strength. At least one of the would make others cater to his needs if not two of them.
After visiting the inn and having a casual meal, Sam discreetly passed a spirit stone to a waiter and whispered something in a low voice.
In a village a spirit stone is a very valuable asset and soon, they got all the info needed.
By evening they visited all three places and came to a conclusion, there is only one gang with more than 50 members.
And in one night, they wrapped the gang simply and went to visit the Village head.
Sam wrote something on a piece of paper and used the seal given by the Marquis to make stamp. He passed the document to the Village head and said.
”Seal all the info about us visiting here. You shouldn't even mention this to the City lord and if he finds fault with you, show him this document and if really try to take it out on you, you can visit the Count with this letter and complain.” The Village head nodded meekly.
After that, the group left.
In the dining hall of the inn, Sam is sitting along with the group and there are no other people in dining hall.
”Guys, today I shown you how to get the info and how to deal with them.
And why did I show you this? Because, the mission given by marquis is an almost impossible one.
Even a small village like this, there is a gang of more than fifty members and you can imagine how many members there will be in a small tier city and in a count city.
The main thing is, we will take more time in travelling and collecting info. As you can see, we have used up around twenty days to come here and a day is needed to get all the info on a small gang.
So, think about how much time it will take to be done with all the villages and cities if we proceed like this.” Sam spoke up to this point and paused. He is letting them contemplate.
After that brief pause, he continued.
”To overcome this, I have a solution. We will divide here and proceed to perform different operations.
Me, Jack and Jasmine will be one team and we will travel to the Count cities to deal with them and the remaining seven people will be travelling to the villages and clear the forces. Even though, we are only three people, we can manage on our own.
As you have seen today, it will only take a single day to clear a village and if you can distribute the work you can do it in half a day. In fact, you can even perform solo in village. After all, the most you can encounter is a Level 1 Novice.
I will leave my carriage and the Bulls with you to travel.
After you are done with villages, you will be dealing with small tier cities and as for the intel at that cities…” Sam paused and took out the small beast pouch he bought and passed it to Watt.
”Watt will be in charge of the intel on the small tier cities and you can deal with forces yourselves. And I want it to be done with in six months ten days. We will deal with the count cities together if we are not done with them by then. After that we will leave to the Blue fire city from there.” He looked at Watt and said.
”You know how to use them right. I left five of them. Just like I did in Falcon Cliff city.” Watt immediately understood what he meant and kept the beast pouch carefully.
Nobody understood what Sam meant, except for Jack. He is a bit surprised that Sam gave away five of them. Sam thought for a bit and said.
”I will be honest with you. I am starting to think that you guys are being too reliant on me. Even though, if you are offended a bit, prove it to me otherwise with your actions. You can meet me at the Cougar city after you finish the tasks.”
Philip came to him and whispered.
”Do you want me to accompany you guys? You are short on man power.”
”No need, I think it is better if you are with them. I don't want any unexpected things to happen and you are the only one with enough wit to handle it. As for the count cities, it is more complicated and I am not afraid to tell you the truth. It is not the first time for me to deal with one of them. The help Count Falcon got is none other than me.”
And then he walked away.
