Chapter 142: Chapter 132: Declaration of War!

Gao Yi meant they should stay behind and let Peter take the rescued girl away first. Once Peter got back, he would immediately make his move, not even waiting for dawn to explode Fesari’s head.

"This is absolutely unacceptable, you have no idea what kind of power a billionaire like that wields!"

Upon Gao Yi’s suggestion, Luca was furious. He grabbed Gao Yi by the collar and said urgently, "You must go, otherwise when Fesari’s people start hunting you here, you’ll have nowhere to hide."

Peter also urged, "That’s right, hurry to the airport, leave this place quickly, find a chance to return."

Gao Yi was impatient. He felt he had already let the tiger return to the mountain and if they delayed even a day or two, there might never be another opportunity to strike.

Peter added in a low, urgent voice, "Saudi isn’t Iraq; when do you see mercenaries daring to stir up trouble in Saudi? Even if Saudi’s army is useless, they have money! So much money! With money, anything can be done, so the most important thing now is to ensure your own safety."

Gao Yi wasn’t completely stubborn. Without further hesitation, he said, "Alright, get out of here first!"

The vehicle was suddenly crowded with seven more children, making it extremely cramped.

Peter looked back at the children and shouted, "Who speaks English? Those who speak English come with us, those who don’t will be shot immediately."

The seven girls were still bewildered. Peter sighed and picked up the phone to make a call. Once connected, he immediately said, "Boss, there’s been an incident! We’re here... we’ve rescued some children, killed all of Fesari’s men, and then... then..."

"Then what!"

"Then Booth knocked out all of Fesari’s teeth..."

"Oh, shit, my God..."

Gao Yi could hear Grins’s lament over the phone.

"Come back immediately, no, not come back, run for your life, get the hell back here now! Give the phone to Gao Busi!"

Peter handed the phone to Gao Yi. Gao Yi took it and then heard Grins’s helpless voice say, "How did it come to this? Fesari... we really can’t afford to provoke him. Weren’t you guys just there to collect money? How did it come to blows?"

"Because... we couldn’t tolerate it."

Grins, puzzled, said, "Aren’t you someone who prioritizes interests and is able to clearly judge situations? How could you not tolerate it? What’s so urgent that you had to act immediately?"

"We rescued seven girls. The remaining dozens have already been buried. Can you tolerate such a thing?"

Grins fell silent.

Gao Yi continued, "I can’t tolerate it."

Grins sighed deeply, then said in a low voice, "This matter... we can’t handle it alone; someone has to protect you. I’ll talk to the higher-ups, see if they can keep you safe. Falke, I don’t know what to do in this situation. I don’t dare provoke such a formidable person, and you’ve knocked out all his teeth."

Gao Yi replied softly, "Ask George; he might know what to do. Listen, I must kill Fesari, otherwise we’ll never have peace."

"Yes, Fesari had better die! I’ll talk to George. You guys hurry to the airport and don’t worry about what flight; just get away first."

Grins hung up the phone, and the vehicle fell silent again.

Luca said softly, "Are you done with the phone? Good, now let’s discuss how to kill Fesari. You’ve escalated things; how did you escalate it?"

Gao Yi took a deep breath and said, "Declare war."

"Declare war?"

Luca was stunned for a moment, then said in confusion, "Declare what war? Are we declaring war on Fesari? You’ve got to be joking!"

"No joke," Gao Yi said through clenched teeth, "That’s right, declare war. Sky Garden did a job for Fesari and killed Saibu, but Fesari not only refused to pay, he also wants to wipe us out to keep us quiet. Can we, as assassins, tolerate this?"

"Of course we can’t, but the problem is Fesari did pay... Falke, you returned the check to him and then say he didn’t pay? You didn’t have to give the check back to him to claim he didn’t pay."

Gao Yi looked at Luca and asked, "Is that check any use now?"

"Uh, if Fesari doesn’t die, the check is useless. We can cash it out but wouldn’t dare to, otherwise following the money trail could lead to our laundry routes and accounts, which would be troublesome."

"So, what’s the point of holding onto the check?"

"It just hurts to think about it..."

"What do you think killing Fesari could get us?"

"We won’t get anything. I was thinking about putting a bounty on Fesari ourselves. Although we can’t offer much, but it’s better than declaring war... Declaring war is laughable; it’s a joke to confront Fesari."

Gao Yi didn’t hesitate and suggested, "Think differently; what about a reverse bounty?"

"A reverse bounty?" Luca was taken aback and asked, "What?"

"We go to the Dark Web and declare war. We don’t go to the Middle East Dark Web, we just announce on the Dark Web that we want to kill Fesari. If someone wants Fesari dead, please fund us; that’s it."

Luca was shocked and said, "You’re kidding, who would be so foolish? You’re already going after Fesari, you’re already at war with him, so if anyone wants Fesari dead, they just need to watch you do it. Why should they fund you?"

"Because without funding, we’re destined to fail; we definitely can’t take down Fesari. Now, if there’s someone who doesn’t care about money, but also wants Fesari dead, wouldn’t they think it’s a good choice to fund us?"

Luca paused, but Peter suddenly said, "I think it’s feasible. People as rich and powerful as Fesari must have many competitors. If another wealthy boss thinks spending money can eliminate Fesari, they might actually put up the funds."

Gao Yi said softly, "We’re just offering a possibility, not necessarily a sure thing, but it’s worth a try."

Luca exhaled and said softly, "I’ll find an account and post on the Dark Web, flaunt the name Sky Garden. If we can use this incident to enhance Sky Garden’s reputation on the Dark Web, that would be something."

"Do it once we land in Baghdad; otherwise, if we provoke Fesari too severely, it could lead to trouble."

Suddenly, Lin Xianghua, who was driving, said, "I think I understand what you all mean. So the question is, how do we kill Fesari?"

Peter laughed bitterly and shook his head.

Luca looked at Gao Yi and suggested, "Disguise, infiltrate, get close. Fesari has to eat; find a restaurant... Falke!"

Gao Yi chuckled bitterly, full of helplessness, "Yeah, I knocked out all his teeth; I doubt he can eat normally for a while..."

Who would have thought, in a moment of anger, those three punches had taken away Gao Yi, the restaurant king’s, biggest home-court advantage.

Lin Xianghua said, "If you ask me, find a sniper, take him out with a long-range shot!"

"Possible!"

Gao Yi slapped his hand and said sternly, "I think Wind Vane is suitable."

Luca spoke with resignation, "Are we still assassins... still..."

Lin Xianghua said in a low voice, "Boss, I need to remind you that firstly, Wind Vane isn’t reliable, and even if Wind Vane is reliable, then the only people left who can act are the two of us. If you’re taking down an unguarded target, that’s fine, but Fesari, he’s definitely well-protected, and this time there won’t be any chance to get close."

Gao Yi said firmly, "We need help."

"Yes."

"Where do we find help, a Mercenary Group?"

"That Mercenary Group is trustworthy? For such a big task, can we trust a Mercenary Group?"

Gao Yi thought of someone he could partner with, and after pondering, he could only think of one person.

Who?

The Nun Berserker from Revenge Blade.

Gao Yi didn’t know any other assassins; even if he could find them, he couldn’t trust a stranger. But the nun was different... She was Consumables, simple-minded, easily coaxed.

Gao Yi looked at Luca and asked, "How do we contact Revenge Blade, how do we get a Consumable from them?"

Luca thought for a moment, then laughed bitterly, "How could Revenge Blade give their trained Consumables to someone else?"

"Buy, is that possible?"

"Buy?"

Luca pondered for a long time, suddenly saying, "Actually, yes. The whole point of Consumables is to make money, a one-time tool, using them in missions is to earn money. Selling them directly, isn’t the money coming easier?"

"Find a way to contact?"

"Alright, I’ll find a way to contact them. Anyway, let’s just talk first; who knows, it might work."

Gao Yi looked at Peter, pondered for a moment, and said, "The Secret Action Bureau can’t help us this time, and it’s good enough if they don’t make things worse. I’m worried Fesari might pressure the Pentagon, which in turn applies pressure on the Secret Action Bureau."

Peter was one of us, starting with his firing on Fesari’s guards.

Peter laughed bitterly, "I don’t know what the Secret Action Bureau will do, how I even got in; you guys know better than I do."

With a stern face, Gao Yi said, "This time around, all four of us have been compromised. If we really have to kill Fesari up close, we’ll have to find someone else. Long-range sniping can only count on Wind Vane, and I don’t feel very secure."

Indeed, it was risky. Gao Yi would be risking a lot just by coming back to Saudi, let alone getting close to Fesari.

Luca urged, "You just mentioned the reverse bounty yourself. Maybe there are others in Saudi who want to kill Fesari. In that case, we might get unexpected help."

First, get things moving; as to what changes this might bring, don’t worry about it for now. Just do it.

After much thought, Gao Yi suddenly said, "To me, Fesari can’t eat properly now, he has to go to the hospital. It would be relatively easy for us to find an opportunity on the road."

Luca replied indifferently, "Get to know his private doctor, and investigate his home hospital. Fesari doesn’t need to go out; his home has everything. To intercept him on his way to the hospital, you’re assuming he needs to go."

Poverty limited Gao Yi’s imagination.

Slightly frustrated, Gao Yi waved his hand and said, "In any case, first, get to a safe place, then everyone starts moving on what they need to do. I’ll go find Wind Vane."

Lin Xianghua said sheepishly, "I’ll protect you."

Luca urged, "I’ll reach out to Revenge Blade, declare war on the Dark Web. Well, I hope it really has the effect you mentioned, a reverse bounty, I hope."

Gao Yi wasn’t sure whether there would be an effect from the reverse bounty or whether there really would be someone willing to provide funding, but his intuition said there would be.

Peter spoke somberly, "I don’t know what I can do, but if the top agrees, then I’m willing to help you privately because if Fesari doesn’t die, none of us will sleep well."
