Chapter 356: Chapter 356: Hax Group

“Hacks Group?”

Chen Yu couldn’t help but frown, he had never heard of this company.

“What did you say? Hacks Group?” Jin Lingsu suddenly became tense, “They are a local power entrenched here, often living off robbing passing ships.”

Chen Yu immediately understood what was happening and quickly pulled Jin Lingsu to the side and ran.

Before long, they saw a middle-aged man leaning against a column, scrutinizing a photo, and fiddling with a knife in his hand.

“It’s him!”

Chen Yu charged straight at him, and before the man could react, he had grabbed him by the neck and lifted him high.

“Are you from the Hacks Group?”

The man was instantly confounded, having quietly lurked here early in the morning, carefully observing the passing pedestrians.

Yet, before he could complete his mission, he had been discovered and controlled by his target.

“So what if I am? You foreigners have offended people you shouldn’t have and even dreamed of negotiating, so we can only teach you a lesson,” he said.

Chen Yu couldn’t help but widen his eyes; typically, assassins caught would be frightened, showing at least some panic.

But this guy was completely different, not only extremely composed but also with an undiminished murderous look in his eyes.

He seemed to be a professional killer trained from a young age.

Just as he was preparing to continue the interrogation, the sound of clapping hands came from the side.

“Quite impressive, it’s the first time one of our Hacks Group’s assassins has been caught.”

Chen Yu abruptly turned his head to see a dozen people slowly approaching.

However, the man leading them was somewhat strange, his entire body exuding an odd metallic quality, and his hands seemed to be entirely made of mechanical frames.

[Detecting electromagnetic device, decoding in progress…]

[Decoding failed!]

Chen Yu’s pupils dilated suddenly, this was the first time he saw something the system couldn’t hack.

“Are you also from the Hacks Group?”

He cautiously asked, then tossed the man in his hands aside.

The leading man let out a loud laugh.

“Whether I am or not is irrelevant, you’re talented, and I think you should have greater opportunities for development! Why not join the Hacks Group? I can guarantee you the highest salary.”

Chen Yu couldn’t help but frown, had this guy not investigated his background properly?

“I’m not interested! Since you’ve come to the airport to block me, that means our ship must have fallen into your hands, so let’s talk terms.”

The man didn’t beat around the bush, “Direct, let’s find a place to talk.”

Although Kraggley was not a major international city, it was still a fairly decent medium-sized city.

Many of its landmarks were quite distinctive, also making it a tourist destination.

The two parties sat down in a mixed-style restaurant.

“Mr. Chen, now that we understand each other, let’s get straight to the point! I want twenty billion, once the money is transferred, I will immediately release the people and the ship.”

Chen Yu sneered; the ship’s principal amount was sixty billion, and after one deal, the most it could double.

According to the contract, the Tong Family and the Childe Family each would get thirty billion.

Now these people were demanding twenty billion right off the bat, likely testing his bottom line.

“What if I don’t want to give you a single penny?”

Chen Yu’s eyes were filled with contempt, signaling his readiness to confront them head-on.

The man slammed the table hard, “Since that’s the case, I can no longer guarantee the safety of young master Russell!”

Chen Yu was somewhat surprised; after all this commotion, it turned out that Russell was in the hands of these people, no wonder they were so brazen.
