Chapter 771: Hello everyone, I am a member of the Deviant Corps
– The Land of Mercenaries –
Kush saw on the international news that another tycoon had died in the Wei Nation.
He smiled and asked Mr. R behind him, “Is that the new Lord?”
The Knight didn’t say anything.
But Kush had already guessed based on his expression as he said with a smile on his face, “If you guys don’t play your hidden card, then you won’t be able to fight against the Deviant Corps. Keep staying passive and waiting for more people to die.”
He turned around and asked his assistant, who was an old acquaintance named Benjamin from the Deviant Corps.
He stayed with Kush to let Kush know his importance to the Deviant Corps, and as a gesture to show Xu Cheng’s sincerity.
However, the knight who had been watching Kush didn’t know that Benjamin was a member of the Deviant Corps.
In fact, Benjamin was also the middle person linking Kush to the Deviant Corps.
“What do you think?” Kush asked Benjamin curiously in a casual manner.
Benjamin said, “According to my professional point of view, there is a group of very powerful hackers behind the Deviant Corps responsible for controlling the media. As for the assassination through electrocution, it was quite unbelievable.”
He was telling Kush that their team was very powerful.
That was when the knight coldly snorted, “It’s just a bluff. They probably used various techniques to achieve this so-called coincidence to make people think that God is punishing us. I’ve fought the Deviant Corps before; they are a bunch of weaklings. If they dare to appear in front of me again, I’ll defeat them within ten moves!”
Back then, he had beaten Mario and Chekhov, and they were simply not strong enough for him.
Of course, that Mario guy did impress him, but it didn’t make him think much further.
Kush: “Then why don’t you go over there?”
The knight was about to say that the other knights had already gone.
But then he soon realized something and said, “Trying to set me up? Hmph, this time your people will die!”
The headquarters had sent two of the twelve knights to protect the new Lord, Kazuo Mitsui.
Kazuo Mitsui only dared to accept his appointment when he met with the two, and he intended to take the opportunity during his father’s funeral to calm the rest of the members.
In order to attract the Deviant Corps, Kazuo Mitsui decided to hold a media conference where he would announce his official crusade against the Deviant Corps and pursue after the killer.
This conference caught the media’s attention, and the police were also very careful with it. They checked everyone’s identity and set up a safe distance between the podium and the seats. They even invited Interpol to join in, setting up traps all over the conference room.

The presence of the special forces were evidence that the security at this conference was even tighter than even that of the president’s.
The conference building was surrounded by snipers, and all entrances and exits, including dead ends, were under video surveillance and covered by defense systems. Everyone would need to scan their ID cards before passing through, and their information would instantly show up on the computer. So even flies and mosquitoes flying by would be detected by the defense system.
Once the defense system was alarmed, the surveillance would immediately pull up the corner and snapshot how the intruders look like.
Less than an hour before the conference began.
Xu Cheng was drinking coffee in a restaurant across the street from the conference building.
He wore a mask and a baseball hat covering his pale look and was dressed in a sports coat.
His cell phone was connected to Caesar and Richie.
After a while, Caesar said, “Boss, it’s a simple job for us to turn off any of the defense systems, but doing so will easily expose us and alarm the snakes. That would be disadvantageous to what you want to do, and also it would take an hour to break into their defense system.”
Xu Cheng asked, “Is this defense system of theirs very powerful?”
Caesar: “Yes, it’s connected to the public security identity system. Anyone caught on camera would be automatically linked to their personal profile. The media people invited for the conference are probably very specific, and if you want to disguise yourself as one of them to enter, I’m afraid that wouldn’t work even with a valid ID card. If your ID card doesn’t even scan, then you would be exposed.”
Ritchie: “Boss, there is less than half an hour before the conference starts, maybe we should give up this time? It’s really hard to break through this modern defence system.”
Xu Cheng: “Not necessarily. I want you guys to do one thing right now.”
Caesar: “Please go ahead.”
Xu Cheng: “Help me find the backstage area. There’s no need to attack their defense system, just help me find where their backstage is. I’ll take out their backstage crews to get in.”
“This is possible, give us ten minutes.”
Xu Cheng nodded and walked outside after confirming when the conference was going to start.
Half an hour later, the conference took place as scheduled.
The media came in one by one, and the security guards verified both their identity and fingerprints.
After all the media entered, the police chief asked the guards outside, “Well? Are there any suspicious people who tried to impersonate any of the guests?”
The guard in charge at the entrance shook his head. “No one was found in this area, and there are no suspicious people on the balcony, parking lot, or anywhere else. Everything’s normal.”
The police chief nodded, then turned around and went back to the conference room.
He headed to the backstage, and Kazuo Mitsui asked him, “How is it? Did you find anything?”
The police chief shook his head. “Everything is normal, inside and out. The whole building is surrounded by our undercover agents, and they know exactly which people and which companies are on the guest list this time. Anyone suspicious or who’s not on the list would be reported to us, don’t worry.”
The two knights dressed as bodyguards behind Kazuo Mitsui said, “Don’t worry, we can detect anyone who comes around you. We’re more sensitive than the defense system.”
Kazuo Mitsui relied on these two heavily and he nodded as he stood up and brushed his suit. After taking a big breath, he said “Then let’s go. Time is up, we should make our entrance for the conference.”
Having said that, he walked out of the backstage and towards the podium.
Once inside, the media from all over the world started taking pictures of him.
Kazuo Mitsui cleared his throat as he stood by the microphone and said, “I believe we are all aware of the previous assassinations, and my father was one of the victims. I want to formally declare war on the Deviant Corps. Our consortium and our Mitsui Family are bound to pursue the murderer to get justice for my father!”
He did not know that Xu Cheng was sitting with his legs crossed in the backstage watching the conference live from the surveillance.
Once Kazuo Mitsui finished speaking, he connected the intercom and took a microphone in his hand as he said, “Hello everyone, I am a member of the Deviant Corps!”
After his voice got transferred to all the speakers in the conference room, the media exploded.
Kazuo Mitsui felt goosebumps all over his body.
