In the afternoon, in a four-story building that was so spacious.
"Is what you're saying true, Jimmy?"
Sitting in the chairperson's chair, Julian's figure stared at the man who was his age. The man was tall and sturdy. Black hair neatly combed. Wearing glasses, it looked like a highly educated scholar.
"Yes, Chief. The rumored Dark Caravan arrived in front of our headquarters. Seems like he wanted to stop by to make a transaction with us."
"Do you have any ideas, Jimmy?"
"In my opinion, we better trade with them normally. As you have said, usually small groups that are able to do such big things are not easy to mess around with.
Better to maintain a good relationship with them. Currently we can indeed get food from hunting zombies, but the amount obtained is uncertain. Not to mention it had to be divided by the number of Silver Cross members.
Maybe if we get in touch with the Dark Caravan, we can get a steady supply of food."
At that moment, the sound of applause was heard. This immediately made Julian and Jimmy who were in the room surprised. They immediately took the weapons. Julian holds the sword and Jimmy holds the spear.
They saw a figure wearing a black hooded robe and a mask sitting on the window, clapping with appreciation.
"You should have done this kind of thing a long time ago, Julian.
Change in organizational structure. Throw away the unnecessary. Recruiting good and trustworthy talent. Attract people who have the same goals as you.
It's really amazing."
"Who are you!" exclaimed Jimmy with a serious and alert expression.
Meanwhile, Julian stared at Ark with a serious expression, but soon turned more relaxed. Sighing heavily, the man said.
"Who would have thought the famous Mr. Hades was you."
"You seem to remember me, Julian?"
"Even if cremated, I still recognize your ashes."
"Sorry to disappoint you, Julian. Even if you die, I should still be alive and kicking. Healthy and happy as always."
"..."
Hearing the conversation, Jimmy was shocked. He had not joined Silver from the start. Just a few months. So the man did not know Julian's old acquaintance. But from the conversation between the two of them, Jimmy was convinced that the figure that had just appeared was not the enemy.
"Did you come just to check?" ask Julian.
"Of course not." Ark shook his head. "I came to trade with you."
"Sorry, we may not have the things you want."
"Of course you have something I want. Example ..."
Ark's eyes narrowed. He then said briefly.
"Information."
Julian's expression became more serious. He then asked.
"What information do you need? No. gabe. I know what you want, so I'll ask.
How much can you afford?"
"Half a small sack of wheat flour for all the information. At least it can be used to make porridge and satiate members of your group."
"Too cheap!"
"It's just information, right?"
"Information is not very valuable to ordinary people. But for a leader of a group, the value is different!"
Seeing the serious expression on Julian's face, Ark finally shrugged with a relaxed expression.
"3/4 little sack?"
Julian's lips twitched.
"At least three small sacks! I'm sure one sack is only four to five kilograms, right?"
"Indeed, it's that big. But three is too many, what if one?"
"Two and a half!"
"One quarter?"
"Two sacks! Accept it or not, it's up to you!"
"Aren't we asking for too much, Chief?" ask Jimmy.
"Yes! What your vice said is true, Julian. You can't be too greedy."
Ark said in a flat tone. The young man leaned against the wall while propping up his chin.
While Jimmy was surprised that Ark heard his remark, Julian pointed towards Ark with an annoyed expression.
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking! People like you sell two small sacks of cornstarch, there must be at least six or eight small sacks in your hideout!"
"..."
"yeah! I was right, right!"
"..."
"Give me a fair price or just go! Find information somewhere else!"
Hearing Julian's assertiveness, Ark shook his head lightly. Unable to gain any more benefits, he finally gave up.
"Two sacks are two sacks. Just tell me the basic information. As for the detailed information, write it in notes."
"Good!" Julian. His expression became calmer.
"Are you not afraid of being cheated, Chief?"
"He may be stingy and try to scratch many advantages. But he's not the one who broke his own promise."
Julian said with a serious expression.
"Even if you praise me, I won't give you an extra bonus."
"Shut up!" julian shouted while pointing at Ark.
After calming down for a moment. He finally began to explain.
"I know what you want is information about the group that controls this city, right? Not only groups, large, but those that also have potential.
Then I'll say it. There are eight groups that are considered very strong compared to other groups."
"Eight?" Ark frowned.
"Yes. They were Imperial Tiger, Black Panther, Golden Rose, Third Scars, Silver Cross, Jade Scorpion, Blood Spider Lily."
Julian explained patiently. But Ark frowned. He knew some of those groups, but not all of them. Also, he was not at all familiar with some of the groups he was familiar with.
Ark then said.
"Isn't that just seven?"
"of course. Because the eighth is the most mysterious." Julian grinning. "That's your group, Sword of Sufferings."
"En?" Ark raised his eyebrows.
Not just Ark, even Jimmy was shocked. He did not expect that the mysterious little group had anything to do with the Dark Caravan.
Even if Ark never spread its name, the name Sword of Sufferings spread so quickly because of Julian. Especially since the man was very appreciative, even a little afraid of the small and mysterious group.
The Silver Cross itself breaks down due to the new rules that Julian created. Most of the members were young men who had the same purpose as him. As for the rest, the disposed selfish people joined small groups.
That way, the name Sword of Sufferings spread widely quickly. Of course many just consider it a rumor and do not believe it. People still refer to these groups as the seven rulers.
As for the Sword of Sufferings, they were considered to be the eighth. The master who hides in the shadows!
Ark stroking chin. Stare at Julian with a look of wonder.
"intriguing. Who would have thought, our small group compared to the large groups with members of over a hundred people."
"That's because you guys have the power to slaughter hundreds of people."
Julian said with a serious expression. But Ark replied half-heartedly.
"No one would believe such a thing. Forget it ..."
Ark shrugged, looking indifferent. His eyes flashed coldly as he muttered.
"Imperial Tiger and Black Panther. The people from the government and the soldiers who rebelled, right?
Really interesting."
