Chapter 207: Invading Southeast Fortress part 2 (1/2)
When the moon started rising up above the sky of the Southeast Fortress, hundreds of shadows immediately started moving towards the wall of Southeast Fortress.
At this moment, Leo was with Ash, as both of them would also be going with ordinary Hybrids that are assigned to go through the Residential District. On the other hand, Chief Lago and the four leaders will be leading the 5 Divisions to go through the sewer system of East Sewer Management.
”Are you really sure that a tunnel will be around this place somewhere?” Ash asked Leo doubtfully. She just can't believe that a wall as formidable as the Southeast Fortress would actually have a secret tunnel hidden somewhere. Soldiers of the South Barracks would definitely do a patrol in this place every now and then, so even if there is indeed any tunnel, it will quickly be patched up, right?
”If you have lived in the Underground World, then you will definitely know that patrol soldiers can be paid. Though it wouldn't be cheap, it would still guarantee that the secret tunnel will not be removed.” Leo explained, ”The only problem is, to know where it is located and which gang is in control of the secret tunnel.”
”Why are you so familiar with such a thing?” Ash curiously asked.
”The Mischievous Lion organization is an organization of assassins and people who work in the Underground World, so we are already extremely familiar with this kind of thing.” Leo replied.
”Now, you see that seemingly ordinary slope over there?” Leo suddenly pointed at a seemingly ordinary slope near the wall.
”Yes!”
”Watch me, and you'll see that such a seemingly ordinary slope is actually a secret door leading inside the Southeast Fortress Residential District.” Leo said before he began walking towards the slope.
The moment he arrived in front of the slope, Leo suddenly knocked on the dirt.
*Clang!
Contrary to Ash's expectations, the slope actually sounded like a metal door.
Suddenly, a hole slides open, and a person's eyes appeared.
”Who are you?” A solemn male's voice soon after sounded.
Hearing the question, Leo just simply showed an extra Mischievous Lion organization token he has, a silver token.
Aside from the gold token that acts as proof of his identity of being the disciple of the Queen Lion and one of the top members of the Mischievous Lion organization, he also never forgets to bring a silver token with him in order for him to hide his identity when visiting the Underground World. The people that have the golden token symbol are really easy to recognize due to the fact that there are only a few of them, specifically him, his two senior brothers, and the 24 Elders of Mischievous Lion organization.
Moreover, because of this current war, he obviously can't just casually show that gold token, even if showing the gold token will allow him access to unlimited resources in the Underground World, because that's the same as saying ”The Mischievous Lion organization plans to take over the Southeast Fortress!”.
”Mischievous Lion organization?” The male's voice wanted to confirm.
”Yes, and I know that it is 1 silver coin per person. I have the money here, so allow me and my men to pass through. Of course, your gang can also choose not to do so out of fear of offending the Commander of this Southeast Fortress or Fourth Prince Ethan, but I'll definitely report it to the 12 Zodiacs. Let's see whether your gang can still survive the next following nights!” Leo replied with a mischievous smile on his face.
The 12 Zodiacs is the group in the Mischievous Lion organization that mostly controls the Underground World. However, this group is separated into 4 different groups. First, the Smiling Lion that Leo leads, which includes Libra and Virgo. The Gemini Dagger that George leads, which includes Aquarius and Pisces. The Claw of Cancer that Charles leads, which includes Capricorn and Scorpio. And lastly, Aries Weapon that Ashley leads, which includes Taurus and Sagittarius.
Because the 12 Zodiacs controls most of the Underground World, anyone that dares to not follow the rules they have set would be reported to them and will be punished once proven. The punishment would completely depend on what rule they have broken.
Therefore, everyone part of the Underground World is scared of them.
”Chill bro, chill... I didn't mean to not allow you and your men to pass through, I just want to confirm because our boss told us specifically to allow any members of the Mischievous Lion organization to pass for free.” The male's voice quickly softens after hearing Leo's threat.
”Oh, okay!” Leo replied, seemingly sounding nonchalant. It is definitely because of the ongoing war why the Underground World is helping the Mischievous Lion organization. Without the protection of the Mischievous Lion organization, the Underground World would definitely fall down, especially the moment the Mischievous Lion organization loses.
*Cling! *Clang! *Clong! *Whooosh!
Soon enough, a door opened inside the slope and a man with a muscular body appeared to welcome them.
”Welcome, people of the Mischievous Lion organization!” The muscular man said with a happy expression on his face.
”What gang do you belong to?” Leo asked.
