Assassination System

Although the Desert Wilderness Bazaar didn't have any organization to enforce the rules regarding Gang Wars, that doesn't mean that they could just declare war against each other and wreak havoc on everything.

Four first-tier Gangs, the Black Widow Gang, the Soaring Serpent Gang, the Poisonous Mamba Gang and the Diving Eagle Gang controls the balance and equilibrium of everything within the Bazaar. However, since greed breeds conflict, wars could never be avoided but since no one wants wanton destruction.

The first-tier Gangs can only wage war against each other and their subordinates, those second-tier Gangs should only harm those from the other Gangs so that their power would be consolidated as one.

The Tyrannical Jollibee Gang was a Gang affiliated with the Soaring Serpent Gang. Their enemies include the Poisonous Mamba Gang and the Black Widow Gang which controls the majority of power within the Bazaar.

Currently, the attackers came from the Poisonous Mamba Gang's affiliation of second-tier Gangs called the Fierce Bulls Gang. Ever since the two Gangs were established, they had always been at odds with each other.

But even so, they kept a steady balance of small skirmishes that would never escalate into a war of such scale comparable to what they were doing right now.

And they were very vicious and insidious. They actually attacked at the time where the Jollibee Gang was the weakest thanks to the recent expulsion of the three Forgers and their failed acquisition of proper weapons.

Right now, everything turned into chaos and those unrelated scrammed from the area as the entire region went into a lockdown where both Gangs could relentlessly kill each other in a battle of supremacy.

Atop a tower at the Northern part of the Bazaar, a shadowy figure of a man could be seen staring at the smoking Region of the Jollibee Gang. Turning his head behind, he stared at the three men who revealed smirks on their lips as he said,

"Hmmm, Caitlyn is just too kind, if I were her, I would've killed you outright. After all, there are no merits in keeping you alive and the three of you would instead bring a calamity towards me in the form of information..." He spoke in a calm voice and a small smile lifted on his lips, "But well, that's fine, since I am not her, and after you told me those crucial things, I would not be so unreasonable as to finish your life."

The three men nodded their heads like chickens pecking rice. Their expressions showed their gratitude. Back when they were exiled; members of the Fierce Bulls Gang found them and after a moment of negotiation, both sides agreed that they would shelter the three in exchange for some information regarding their foes.

When they found out that the Jollibee Gang has been running out of stocks when it comes to weapons. They immediately rallied their members and started a siege. After all, a Gang without sufficient weapons would never rise as a victor.

With both sides having the same number of members. Them, who had the advantage in weaponry would have a higher chance of winning this war

The thought of gaining everything that the Jollibee Gang possessed along with the gorgeous beauty, Caitlyn made the man shiver in excitement, his eyes shone in a light of lust before he beckoned with his hands.

An unassuming wall beside him transformed into a door where a young woman whose expression looked blank and lifeless could be seen, slowly walking towards him.

The young woman didn't have any clothes to cover her body and so, all of her vital areas were seen and the three men who saw her stared intently at her crack and the mountainous peaks on her chest.

Realizing that the three men were still there, He turned around and clapped his hands as three armed men entered the balcony of the tower. The men then grabbed the three traitors and soon, their miserable shrieks echoed across the entire tower.

The man only shrugged, how could he spare and include those traitorous bastards into his ranks? Who knows when they would betray him for a bigger benefit?

Holding the young woman on her waist, he made her bend over and soon, he forgot about the matter of the three men. Instead, he thrust powerfully with his mind filled with thoughts about Caitlyn.

Meanwhile back at the location of the Jollibee Gang. Continuous booming sounds rattled the entire area and the earth itself, shivered in return. Dan arrived at his room and found Charlotte whose expression revealed her apprehension and fear towards the suddenness of the matter.

"Transform into a man, again. We'll be joining them..."

When Dan approached, she quickly hid a pool of blood on the sheets and her expression looked crimson in embarrassment. However, Dan didn't have any time for jokes and he urged him as the latter finally complied.

Both of them then came out of the hall and arrived at the front lines where both Gangs were throwing some explosives at each other. Dan had to be careful with his movements since even though the explosives didn't have that much power.

The chemicals contained within it was so corrosive and had the same properties as Napalm which would be pretty disastrous if he got struck by it.

Ducking their heads, Dan took his Desert Eagle and stared at Charlotte, "Listen, from now on, everyone that you see that didn't come from the Jollibee Gang, should be killed..."

His chilling words astonished the young maiden but she quickly regained her calm when she remembered his words yesterday. After all, even if his father didn't specifically lecture her about the ruthlessness of the world, he still told her to be decisive when it comes to life and death battles.

Clenching her fists, she stared at the other men who shouted numerous commands at each other, "Squad A, Squad B is restocking their explosives, cover them!"

"Squad C, pressure fire the enemy and prevent them from focus-firing Squad B!"

"Squad D, scout for flankers, while Squad E will reinforce our barriers and Squad F's job is to finish the enemy, no one from the Mad Dogs should escape!" Caitlyn rapidly commanded and although no one replied, their actions displayed their consent as almost everyone moved according to their jobs with the exception of Dan and Charlotte who stared in shock at her finesse and leadership skills.

After throwing a bottle of explosives, she noticed the gazes of the two and she moved towards them and said, "What are the two of you doing in here? This battle doesn't concern you..." Her expression turned chilly, "Go back to your room and wait until this is over..."

Her unyielding expression indicated that she didn't want to include Dan and Charlotte in their internal battles. However, little did she knew that when she spoke these words towards Dan. The latter was moved and immediately decided,

'Since she didn't ask as to join the battle, she clearly thinks that although our battle prowess when it comes to duels are good. Our strength would be suppressed in large-scale battles,' Dan wore a small smile as he glanced at Caitlyn, 'Her thoughtfulness towards our well-being will definitely not go unrewarded...'

Tapping the System Menu, Dan took several Frag Grenades, infused it with his Qi and discreetly hurled it over at the enemies advancing barricade.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Consecutive deafening roars erupted. First when the Frag Grenade exploded. It didn't do any damage towards the enemy troops and like the explosives that the Jollibee Gang hurled over; it was stopped by the enemy's barrier that encompassed them all.

However, when the second Grenade exploded, the barrier cracked and a small hole the size of a plate could be seen above it. Fortunately, Dan's throwing techniques along with the System's calculation guaranteed accuracy as the Grenade entered in between the enemy lines and detonated, sending chunks of flesh along with gallons of blood drenching the ground, scarlet.

[You have successfully Assassinated a member of the Fierce Bulls Gang! Obtained 3 ASP]

Numerous system notifications floated in the air before being dismissed by Dan after a momentary glance. The enemy abruptly retreated after realizing that they lost at least fifty comrades in that single explosion. Due to the panic and fear of instantly dying filling their minds, their movements looked sluggish and they didn't look as orderly as before.

They retreated with big movements, but...

How could Caitlyn, the leader of the Jollibee Gang let them go away without paying any compensation?

"Everyone! They look disoriented from the attack just now! All Squad from A to C, commence the attack, now!" Caitlyn roared as she unsheathed her sword and personally pounced at the enemy front lines. With a swing of her sword, a head would fly towards the skies.

Same goes at the men who looked as ferocious and as bloodthirsty as her. They were akin to wolves inside a flock of sheep. Completely unrestrained with their killing; the enemies were annihilated in a matter of minutes.

Charlotte who observed the scene of absolute carnage couldn't help but retch in disgust and pain. However, her pride as a member of the Paradyne Clan didn't allow her to surrender.

She stomached the scene of innards sprayed on the ground as she stood up and ran towards an escaping enemy. Dan who witnessed her sudden outburst stared at her in shock but didn't prevent her following actions.

Raising her palm towards the escaping man. A ball of flame manifested in the air along with a domineering might that enveloped her sturdy figure. Her expression looked solemn and with a flick of her wrist.

The ball of flame transformed into a fire dragon that endlessly chased the man. However when he realized that the fire dragon couldn't be avoided. He turned around and hoped for the best.

But how could he survive under the finest Divine Arts of the Paradyne Clan? Upon contact, his body melted from her hands and in under two seconds. Only a pile of ashes were left that eventually dissipated in the air.

Charlotte fell on the ground, her expression looked pale and Dan hurriedly moved and ruffled her hair as if saying, "Good girl, good girl, you can do it if you want after all..."

The men who just finished their slaughter noticed the appearance of the fire dragon that dazzled their eyes. Darting their gaze at Charlotte who manifested it, their eyes shone in shock when they realized the identity of the dragon.

Divine Arts!

All of them hissed and when the attack engulfed the escaping man. Their figures turned silent. Along with Caitlyn whose mouth gaped in shock. The value of Divine Arts could not be measured by money alone.

And it could only be obtained through a fortuitous encounter or some kind of an inheritance or heirloom passed through the entire family for generations.

A cultivator could still cultivate without Divine Arts but their strength would never surpass those who had Divine Arts, even if they surpassed them by a stage. That's how strong, Divine Arts were. They were basically a cheat that could enable anyone to jump ranks and fight their enemies without having any problems.

The admiration of the men turned into joy when they saw that the one who unleashed that Divine Arts belong to their Gang. But just as they walked towards Charlotte's direction. They found that Dan and Charlotte huddled together, with the former ruffling her hair in an affectionate manner while she was transformed into a man.

'Fuck, I forgot...'

'Goddamned it, I forgot that both of them...'

'Swings that way...'

Instantly, everyone turned their heads around and minded their own business. Some looted the enemy while some whistled in the air as they cleaned their blood-soaked weapons.

However, Caitlyn could see that just from the excitement painted on their faces alone. They really wanted to approach Charlotte and throw her in the air while singing songs of victory.

But still...I wonder what how would these hungry bastards react when they realize that Charlotte was actually a woman...

Caitlyn inwardly thought as a smile lifted on her lips. Her expression looked, clearly interested towards that event.
