Chapter 1892 Market (Please give me a monthly ticket!!! Please subscribe!!! Please recommend!!!)

Xander Cage is in big trouble!

Although X-Force is a secret organization founded by Nick Fury, compared with other organizations, they are basically stepmothers. This is not Nick Fury's fault. Just count how many secret organizations Nick Fury controls.

Each of these organizations is much stronger than xXx. To put it bluntly, xXx is just a substitute for Nick Fury's long-term suspicion. It may have a lot of resources, but if you want it to have resources like S.W.O.R.D. or Monarch, that's pure dreaming.

So even though xXx thinks he's okay, in fact Nick Fury didn't invest that much in it.

Although the agents in X-Force are also excellent, they definitely cannot have the nearly unlimited resources of S.W.O.R.D., nor do they have the long history of Monarch. Monarch even has its own aerospace command center (a super-large plane, just smaller than Rodan).

Therefore, many black technologies are not available to xXx. Therefore, xXx is just a little stronger than ordinary people.

If they really meet a professional, they may not be able to compete... This is also related to Nick Fury's positioning of them. They are originally spare tires. If they are really that strong, they can't be just spare tires.

So when the high table came down, xXx was suddenly under a lot of pressure.

"How about it?"

"We lost several more teams of agents today. They were all ambushed, and Max was even captured alive by them... In order not to leak intelligence, Max chose to self-destruct."

Elena reported to Cage with a sad face.

Since they were ambushed for the first time three days ago, various attacks have begun to come one after another. Moreover, this gang has no bottom line, poisoning, creating accidents, and even human bombs!

Just to kill them.

"As for Gibson..." Although Cage was sad, he didn't have any negative thoughts. After all, working in their line of work means risking your life at any time. You may die at any time. Many xXx agents have died over the years.

"There has been no progress on the commander's side. At the same time, the commander has begun to mobilize resources for us. He hopes that we can find that group of people!" Elena said with a firm look.

The crazier the enemy is, the more important what they are doing is!

Gibson is right!

What she didn't know was that Nick Fury was going crazy! Damn it, he never expected that things would go in a direction that he couldn't predict at all!

He just wanted to find someone to take the blame, but now, although he has someone to take the blame, a powerful enemy has inexplicably appeared!

This was all he had left, and he had no intention of fighting this war.

But judging from the current situation, things don't seem to be going according to his will.

"Tell Gibson that I will stabilize the situation and ask him to speed up." In fact, Cage was also a little confused as to why human experiments had to be conducted. Even when Gibson came out in person to explain, Cage still had doubts... But now is not a good time, and he will investigate it himself after a while.

No matter how good the performance of Gibson, played by Nick Fury, is, these elites of xXx are not puppets, and Gibson can't say what he wants. They have their own independent thinking ability. Although Gibson gave a very strong reason, in the eyes of Cage, the old agent, xXx has become very strange since a few years ago, but he doesn't know where this feeling comes from.

This incident made Cage feel it necessary to investigate.

What the hell is Gibson doing!

No one is a fool!

Especially these agents.

……

The High Table worked very hard. On the one hand, they needed to cooperate with the Beggar King. On the other hand, they had suffered heavy losses in recent years, which affected the status of the entire High Table. This all started with one person... John Wick.

This guy used to be a killer, and he has retired. He is a very powerful killer, and he once met Kai. Kai did not make things difficult for him, after all, Kai did not care about such a little Kalemi. As a result, due to the operation of the vampire and Kai, the Continental Hotel in New York was bloodbathed, which led to John's retirement plan being successfully completed.

He's retired.

He lived in New York, had a good life, and lived a happy life with his wife. Unfortunately, perhaps because he had committed too many sins, God felt that people like him did not deserve a happy life. His wife died of cancer soon after.

And he was not free from the troubles. A second-generation rich man used a blood covenant to force John to come out of retirement in order to compete for the position of family patriarch.

According to the iron rule of the High Table, the blood covenant cannot be violated. Once someone makes a blood covenant, they must abide by it. John once asked that second-generation ancestor for a big favor, and in exchange, he made a blood covenant. Now that someone has come to him, he must abide by it.

Of course, you can disobey the blood covenant, but the entire High Table will use all its resources to hunt down those who evade the blood covenant.

Logically speaking, this is not a problem for John, just killing someone. For a killer, killing someone is never a problem. The key is that the person to be killed is a problem.

Who needs a precious blood pact to be killed?

Not everyone can sign a blood contract. This thing is very precious. To waste a precious blood contract just to kill a person is not a good deal in the eyes of many people.

The person the second-generation rich man wanted to kill was his sister.

Of course this is not important. Those who are most ruthless in fighting for family property are always the closest people.

What is really terrible is the identity of this sister. The High Table is a very mysterious organization with a long history, said to be more than a hundred years old. The highest leader of the High Table is a being called "Elder". Who this elder is and what he does, no one knows, but there are some news claims that the elder is a vampire. Of course, the High Table doesn't care much about this.

They don’t care who the elders are.

As long as the high table led by the elders can bring them benefits, they can accept it even if the elders are pigs.

Under the elders is a mysterious group. They are directly under the elders and are a bit like a supervisory department. They do not participate in the operation of the High Table, but they will monitor the entire High Table to ensure that it does not deviate from the laws set by the elders.

Of course, this group is very mysterious and not directly connected to the people at the high table.

And the judge lady came from this class.

Below this, the High Table is truly in control of the Twelve Families.

They form the High Table Council, with a total of twelve seats, but in fact there should be thirteen seats, and the thirteenth seat belongs to the elders, who are nominal leaders, that is, the chief. But in reality, the elders do not attend any meetings, so the voting rights of this seat are generally held by the most loyal family among the twelve seats. This privilege is not fixed to a certain family, but is designated by the elders. The remaining eleven seats have no distinction of high or low status.

The family that holds the voting power of the elders is considered the leader among the twelve families.

The sister of that second-generation rich kid was one of the twelve families. Their father died, and the seat and the position of the head of the family were left to the sister. The younger brother was not happy about it, so he asked John to kill her.

John was dumbfounded.

If he doesn't do it, he will be hunted down by the entire high table.

Whatever he did, he would still be hunted down by the High Table... The High Table was the ancestor of assassins! If even the twelve seats of the High Table were killed by assassins, what would the High Table become?

A makeshift team?

Finally, John did it.

He is a rather odd person. Although he is a killer with numerous crimes, he has the same code as a knight - once he makes a promise, he must fulfill it!

For a killer, this is considered... a virtue?

Anyway, John really did it.

He killed the second-generation ancestor's sister, and then turned around and found that the second-generation ancestor had betrayed him. He publicly offered a reward for him... so he turned around and killed the second-generation ancestor. Now, the Twelve Seats family has no descendants.

Of course, we can't just let it go like this with the high table.

So the hunt for John began.

John is also a tiger. Not only did he not wait to die, he resisted. In short, from New York to Los Angeles, from Los Angeles to Morocco, from Morocco to Tokyo, this guy killed wherever he went!

This made the entire high table lose face. So they didn't care about business anymore and wanted to kill John at all costs.

John also gave them a big one. He found the elders through his connections. When facing the elders, he first expressed his willingness to atone for his sins. He cut off his ring finger and swore allegiance to the elders. This is an ancient ritual.

The elder is said to be the legendary founder of the Assassin sect, Hassan bin Sabbah, also known as the legendary Old Man of the Mountain.

Assassins, in Arabic, hashashin, is actually the name of a heretical branch of Islam, and is translated into Chinese as Assassins. The founder of the Assassins, Hassan ibn Sabbah, was a Tunisian Persian. After accepting the teachings of the Inner School in Egypt, Hassan ibn Sabbah returned to Tunisia and bought a castle with an altitude of more than 3,000 meters. He used it as a base and started the "new propaganda movement". This castle is called "Eagle's Nest", and Hassan ibn Sabbah is respected by his followers as "the old man in the mountain". This old man in the mountain calls himself the chief preacher, and there are many great preachers and preachers under him. The preachers have always strictly implemented the orders of the chief preacher at all costs, even at the cost of sacrificing their lives. Under the command of the chief preacher, the Assassins have continuously launched attacks on countries around Alamut and seized money from the rulers of these countries. At that time, the Islamic Empire was in the hands of the Seljuk Dynasty, and the country was very powerful. Of course, it did not want to be threatened by the Assassins, but the Assassins would not let it go easily. The Assassins would do anything to achieve their goals, especially good at assassination. The Islamic Empire at that time did not want to be blackmailed by them, so the Assassins assassinated the prime minister of the Islamic Empire at that time, and then sent a threatening letter, claiming to kill the king and other ministers of the Islamic Empire. Threatening letters are not uncommon, but this threatening letter from the Assassins made everyone in the Islamic Empire feel insecure.

The reason lies in the assassins under the command of the old man in the mountain, Hassan bin Sabbah. Sabbah's method of training assassins is very similar to the plot in martial arts novels. He collects young children from all over the country and teaches them various skills from an early age. But for Sabbah, superb skills alone are not enough. What is more important is complete loyalty to him. The assassins under his command believed what Sabbah said. They firmly believed that only Sabbah could send them to the Garden of Allah. So how did Sabbah do this? Sabbah built a large garden in his castle according to the records in the Koran. The palaces in the garden are magnificent, the pavilions and terraces are extremely beautiful, and all kinds of rare treasures can be seen everywhere. Fine wine, honey, and milk are available for people to take at will through different pipes. Beautiful girls of all ethnic groups also live in the garden, and they are all good at singing and dancing.

When the children he had taught from childhood grew up to about 20 years old, Sabah drugged them and sent them to the garden. When these young people woke up, they felt like they were in heaven. These young people had fun in the garden, thinking they were already in heaven, just as the Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai said in "Preface to the Peach Garden Banquet for My Younger Brothers on a Spring Night": "Life is like a dream, how much joy is there". After a while, Sabah used the same trick again, drugged these young people and took them out of the garden. The young people were naturally very disappointed with the gap between their lives before and after, so Sabah told them that if they died for the sect, they could return to heaven. This is the strength of Sabah's assassins. Not only do they have superb skills, but they are also fearless when carrying out assassinations, so the success rate of assassinations is extremely high. It is for this reason that the threatening letters sent by the Assassins frightened the rulers of the Islamic Empire.

Sabah not only extorted the Islamic Empire, but also demanded protection fees from many other countries. Even the German emperor at that time had to bow his head. At this time, the Assassins were no different from a terrorist organization. In addition, the headquarters of the Assassins was located on a cliff thousands of meters high, with a dangerous terrain and was very difficult to attack. If they could not be wiped out in one go, they would certainly be assassinated and retaliated by the Assassins. Therefore, all countries dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out.

It was not until the middle of the 13th century that the Assassins finally provoked a tough guy - Mongke, the Great Khan of the Mongol Empire. Mongke rejected the Assassins' request. Due to the extremely strict protection measures, the assassins sent by the Assassins not only failed to assassinate Mongke, but also completely annoyed Mongke. Therefore, Mongke sent Hulagu to lead the army to wipe out the Assassins and established the Ilkhanate near Iraq. In front of the Mongolian army, the Assassins were vulnerable. After the victory, Hulagu ordered all the Assassins to be killed. After that, the Assassins were seriously injured, but because their members were scattered everywhere, they still retained some strength and engaged in terrorist activities in other places.

According to the elder, he is Hassan, a vampire, and the entire Assassin sect is his creation.

What's interesting is that this Hassan is actually a devout believer... He just misread the scriptures, and he thinks his understanding is correct. And he has always used his own methods to practice his understanding. A very magical vampire.

Then he flipped over.

He was killed by John... Of course this was impossible. How could a vampire who had lived for who knows how many years be killed by an unprepared mortal?

But John's bullet had indeed penetrated his head, which made the elder very angry. John's so-called loyalty was just a cover! He was deceived!

Then John ran away.

Ran!

This made the elder explode!

But miraculously, the elders told the High Table to declare John dead and his reward was cancelled.

Although I don't know why, the high table did it.

Then they found that John's business was over, but their business was also going to be ruined. The series of failures of the high table seriously affected their reputation. They were not a monopoly giant, they had many competitors. Killers were a very old profession, and this industry was always full of competition!

The recent rise of some killer companies such as digital killers and killer companies have been eroding their market, which has made the high table very angry.

They have to take back the market.

Hitting opponents is one thing, but more importantly, they must give the market confidence.

How to give confidence.

Take over New York, the most important market in the world!

So for New York, high tables at all costs!
