Chapter 4130 TGX in Full Swing
[Arthur] felt he was about to die and was filled with despair.
He had no idea what kind of poison he had drunk... That was the most terrifying thing, because it was beyond his comprehension.
He even subconsciously believed that the cup in the elegant little restaurant was thrown by the person in front of him.
A single thrown cup nearly killed him, and the destructive power emanating from the two pierced wounds on his body... just how terrifyingly powerful must this person be?!
It's quite normal for such a terrifyingly powerful person to use poisons or strange potions that are beyond their comprehension, right?
Finished!
I was fine when I left, but I can't go back!
“I told you…I told you everything…My name is Arthur…I am the son of Armand, one of the nine Pirate Kings…”
Xie Nan was taken aback for a moment.
This guy is actually that old bastard Armand's son... He's so cowardly, he's definitely not his biological child? She hasn't even reached the intensity level yet, and this coward has already blurted it all out.
Wait a minute, I think I've heard some incredible information.
Moreover, there is more than one.
For example, the thing that Kanon stole.
For example, the Pirate Alliance is plotting a covert operation...
Unfortunately, Arthur doesn't know much about this covert operation. He only got involved after betraying his own father, Armand, halfway through, and now he's like a blind fly.
……
"Sister, you're back!"
Miss Nan nodded, looking Huayin up and down as if she were meeting her all over again.
This made Hanon feel strange. "Sister, is there something on me?"
"No." Xie Nan shook his head. "That's all for today. I'll take you home first. I have some things to take care of."
She originally planned to go play with Sheryl, but since she ran into [Arthur], she changed her mind at the last minute—unexpectedly, [Arthur] had actually planted a spy in TGX.
Soon, a small passenger pod landed.
These are the guards that Lucia sent to serve Raphael.
She helped Hana into the flight cabin, patted her head and said, "Go back first, be a good girl and wait for me to come back. If anyone asks you, just say I went to take care of some personal business."
"Uh-huh!"
……
After seeing Hanon off, Miss Nan quietly entered the underground sewer system of [Marindo] again.
This is actually an excellent hiding place; Arthur has been thrown into a makeshift "safe house" by her.
It's called a "safe house," but it's just a place that was dug out temporarily.
She suddenly realized that she could actually use Arthur's identity to cause some trouble.
This filial son is a heavy user of stimulants, and his willpower is really low... Xie Nan felt that she was lucky. She had never met someone so cooperative before, which made her feel very unaccomplished.
"Please...please spare me. I've told you everything I know, and I've given you all my wealth..."
"Don't worry, I'll get you out of here. You can stay here for now."
Xie Nan grabbed Arthur's head and instantly, the dutiful son of the Pirate King's family lost consciousness. When Xie Nan came out again, he was already wearing Arthur's disguise.
Arthur was originally scheduled to meet secretly with the TGX mole today... The time and place had already been arranged, and there was still time to get there.
The undercover agent's name is Skull, a trainee superintendent at TGX headquarters. He is already considered a promising mid-level officer, which is naturally due to the covert support from [Arthur].
As for the representative of TGX to Marindo this time, it is the current young master of the family, the Nine Gods, one of the founding families of TGX, namely the Nine Gods Naraku.
……
……
"Skull, are you going out?"
"Oh, yes, it's a rare opportunity to come to [Marindo], so I'll take advantage of the rest to go out for a walk."
"Want to come along?"
"No, I'm planning to bring some souvenirs for my wife at home; you might find it boring."
"It's pretty boring..."
Since it wasn't an official business trip, Skull simply drove a regular model flying car away from the TGX headquarters building.
He actually hated that madman Arthur for forcing himself out at such a sensitive time... But when he thought about how he had climbed to his current position over the years thanks to Arthur's investment, Skull felt a lot of worry.
For him, Arthur was a deadly time bomb. He couldn't be controlled by others forever; he had to find a way to break free.
The agreed-upon location was a shopping mall, which Skull had chosen on the spur of the moment. Even if they ran into TGX members, Skull could use the excuse that he was there to pick out a gift.
He did indeed buy several expensive gifts, but instead of showing up at the agreed-upon location, he hid nearby and observed for quite some time.
He had actually already seen Arthur; he was sitting alone in a tea house in the mall, having ordered a cup of tea.
Skull walked into the tea house without making a sound, went to Arthur's seat, and sat down in the nearby seat.
The chair backs face each other.
"You're quite cautious?"
Skull heard Arthur's slightly mocking voice and was furious, but he couldn't lash out. "What is it that you have to meet me to say?"
"Let's talk about the TGX delegation." [Arthur]... Xie Nan said in a deliberately nonchalant tone.
Skull frowned. "Why are you suddenly interested in this?"
Xie Nan said imperiously, "You say what I tell you to say."
Skull's gaze narrowed slightly. At this distance, if he were to suddenly launch a surprise attack, he wondered if he could...
He quickly dismissed the crazy idea. "The delegation has nothing special to do. Besides attending the ceremony, they're also here on an inspection tour. These past few days, Nine-Headed God Naraku has been visiting the [Marindor] Star Cruise. TGX plans to jointly host a training camp with the [Abriel] Empire to select a group of elites to join..."
The information wasn't highly confidential and would be released soon. Skull knew that if he didn't reveal some information to Arthur, he wouldn't be able to get away easily today.
"Is that all?" Miss Nan asked, her voice tinged with dissatisfaction.
Skull hesitated for a moment before lowering his voice and saying, "I also heard some news, but I'm not sure. It seems that Kurojin Naraku came with a mission of marriage alliance. It is said that the original prospective bride was the eldest daughter of the [Babilon] family, but she seems to be observing the situation... However, in the past two days, Miss Mercedes has met with Kurojin Naraku several times. As for the specifics, I have no way of knowing."
Miss Nan was stunned for a moment. She was familiar with the name "Babilon," but she didn't expect the old man to be so unlucky... Judging from the current state of Babilon's misfortune, his downfall seemed imminent.
I wonder if this old guy has any means to make a comeback.
After all, they were the maternal family of the Empress of the [Abrier] Empire. She would never believe they didn't have some kind of background. She knew about the crises that the [Babilon] family had encountered, and could only say goodbye.
There's probably a maid pulling the strings behind this.
It's certain that the [Babilon] family is going to have bad luck, but it's unclear to what extent it will decline—Ah Nan feels that this is related to the extent to which the maid has been offended.
It's unclear whether the Papillon family will be able to weather this storm.
However, if they could form a marriage alliance with the [Nine Gods] family, they might have a chance to weather the storm given their deep-rooted influence in the empire.
"I'm quite interested in this matter. Keep an eye out for it when you have time."
The marriage between the founding family of TGX and the powerful family of Abrieel is something a mere scoundrel from a pirate family has no right to interfere with...
Skull inwardly scoffed, but still agreed. The Arthur he knew was a gentle donkey; once he got along with him, he was fine.
To make things go more smoothly, Skull lowered his voice again and said, "Regarding the matter of the [Konak] family's daughter that you asked me to investigate, I've made some progress..."
"You don't need to investigate this matter for now," Miss Nan said directly. "I have something I need you to do."
"What is it?" Skull asked warily.
"Take this to the TGX headquarters building and insert it into the terminal inside the building. Make it discreet."
Skull frowned subconsciously, about to ask what it was, when he realized that the person behind him had disappeared... He was secretly startled, only to find that a paper bag had appeared at his feet at some point.
Skull took a deep breath, sat quietly for a moment, and then calmly picked up the bag and left the teahouse. He walked into the parking lot and only took out the contents of the bag after getting into his car.
It is a key that can be compatible with most terminal interfaces...
After hesitating for a moment, Skull quickly put the key in his pocket and then drove back to the TGX headquarters building.
Although the position of trainee superintendent is inconspicuous at TGX headquarters, it is considered a high-ranking position at the [Marindo] outpost, and from a high-ranking position at headquarters.
Apart from his colleagues in the delegation, Skull has no one to fear here, and he is free to act as he pleases.
There were many terminals in the building, and Skull, with his identity, easily found an inconspicuous spot in the server room and successfully inserted the crystal key.
He didn't know what Arthur was going to do. After observing for a while and finding that there was no problem, he closed the terminal's cover and left quietly.
Unbeknownst to him, Jingyue suddenly opened her "eyes" at that moment.
"Have you heard? Miss Mercedes came again today..."
"If this hadn't happened with the Papillon family, they would have been a good match for the young master. But now... I think it's alright for the young master to have some fun."
Skull quietly joined in his colleagues' gossip.
……
……
Inside the top office of TGX's headquarters building.
Nine Gods Naraku was discussing something with his advisors... Upon hearing the news that Messiah had come to visit again, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
The advisor chuckled and said, "It seems this young lady is quite fond of the young sect leader; it goes beyond mere flattery."
Nine Gods Nāraku shook his head, "This hurdle with the [Babilon] family will be difficult to overcome."
"Young Master doesn't think it's a good idea?"
Nine Gods of the Void said calmly, "The Void Bank rarely goes to such lengths. I am quite familiar with Francis, and even if he wanted revenge, he wouldn't easily go to this extent. This is most likely the intention of the board of directors behind the scenes."
The advisor nodded, agreeing with his assessment. "What does the patriarch mean? Are they abandoning the Papillon family?"
A strange light flashed in the eyes of the Nine Gods, Naraku. "Originally, the matter with the [Babilon] family was just a tacit understanding; neither of us made it public, so it doesn't count. As for the family's intention, it's for me to befriend the princess who recently returned to the [Abriel] royal family..."
“I see…” The advisor nodded, then suddenly realized.
The best marriage partner for the heir of the founding family of TGX, the prestigious [Nine Gods], would actually be an elite member of the [Abriel] royal family.
Before Princess Raphael's return, there was no suitable candidate among the Abrier royal family—or rather, Princess Anle was also under consideration by the Nine Gods family.
However, Princess Anle had a terrible reputation, and the Nine Gods Naraku opposed her. Originally, the Papillon family's power was also a good choice.
But now the [Babilon] family is about to undergo a "tribulation," while the [Abriel] royal family has produced a more suitable Princess Raphael, so the [Nine Gods] family naturally has to reconsider.
"Should I go and get rid of that Miss Mercedes?"
“No need.” Nine Gods Naraku waved his hand. “To suddenly become indifferent just because the other family is facing a crisis would not be good for the reputation of the Nine Gods family. I’m not really going to marry her. I’m just going to meet her a few times. If outsiders become more friendly to the Pabilon family because of this, in the end, they will also owe the Nine Gods family a debt of gratitude.”
The aide smiled slightly.
Our young master is quite intelligent. He has strength, vision, emotional intelligence, and even looks, plus a tremendous background... A royal princess who has been separated from her family since childhood should be easy to win over, right?
A short while later, Mercedes arrived at her office on the top floor.
The staff had already wisely left.
"Naraku, I didn't disturb your work, did I?"
Nine Gods Nāraku chuckled lightly, "Your Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent over two opera tickets. Would Mercedes be willing to watch it with me tonight?"
Mercedes bit her lip lightly, her eyes alluring, "I'm willing to go wherever you invite me."
……
……
……
……
Inside a fairly nice house.
Shaq's few secret agents who had infiltrated the pirate crew of Marindor were playing cards out of boredom—but only three of his oddly shaped henchmen were there; one was missing.
"Where's the sauce?"
"I don't know. He went out early this morning. Maybe he couldn't stand it and went to have some fun?"
"Hmph! The captain said we need to behave ourselves for a while! We're going to give it a piece of our mind when we get back. If things go wrong, the captain won't let us off the hook..."
"Well, I'm back now!"
The three henchmen stopped fighting at the same time, and then a humanoid creature with an octopus face and four arms pushed open the door and walked in.
"Sauce, don't you remember the captain's orders that we weren't allowed to go out on our own?"
Faced with his teammates' reproaches, the octopus-faced [Sauce] chuckled, distributed some drinks to his teammates, and then brushed it off.
Will the captain come today?
After calming down his teammates, [Sauce] asked nervously.
"Now you're scared?" The oddly shaped teammate A asked, puffing on a cigar. "The boss's coming over tonight! We've waited so many days, it should be time to move out soon!"
[Sauce] nodded, "I'll go back to my room and change my clothes first."
The teammates ABD didn't pay any attention.
After returning to his room, [Sasa] quickly took out a communication bracelet. "The target will appear tonight."
