The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

Chapter 2531
‘One billion dollars?!’

Fennel’s face darkened as he asked Georgina, “How long has it been since the mission was updated?”

Georgina looked at the time and said, “Just over two minutes.”

Fennel nodded and looked at Philip, who stood at the doorway looking up at the sky. He asked, “What shall we do next?”

Philip looked at the blue sky and white clouds, saying leisurely with a smile, “First, we’ll also increase our bounty to one billion. No, I want to always keep the bounty for the Hall of Evil at 100 million more than their bounty for us. In addition, release a new bounty mission for them to protect us. No matter who it is, one day of protection will earn them 100,000 dollars.”

Hiss!

Hearing Philip’s words, Fennel’s and Georgina’s eyes lit up. He was simply invincible!

Fennel laughed and said, “Bro, you’re as smart as ever! In this case, Vataco can’t do anything at all!”

Georgina’s eyes twinkled as she shot a curious look at Philip’s back for the first time. She was now a little more interested in the man in front of her.

“Georgina, hurry up and release the new bounty mission. It’s much better than to have them risk their lives to attack the bases of the Hall of Evil.” Fennel smiled.

Georgina nodded in response, turned around, and left the hall.

Soon, the underground bounty divisions of the entire Western world received a new bounty mission. Although there was no employer information, everyone knew it. The new bounty mission was to protect the members and bases of the Hall of the Sun. For each day of protection, each person would get 100,000 dollars.

The content of the mission was very simple. It was almost like going on a holiday.

For the smaller teams that could not compete with the bigger teams to attack the bases of the Hall of Evil and some bounty hunters who worked alone, this mission suited them best. Their eyes lit up when they saw it.

“F*ck! Why did it never occur to me that bounty missions could be done this way?”

“Apollo is so smart! I‘ll take it!”

“Yay! We can finally take up a mission too! Although the bounty isn’t much, it’s simply too easy to protect the Hall of the Sun!”

For a time, the remaining bounty hunters in the entire underground bounty divisions headed out to the properties and bases of the Hall of the Sun in various regions to protect them.

At the same time, in an underground secret base. The base was huge with advanced technology. No outsider knew about, this base because this was the base camp of the underground bounty society.

At this moment, in the most central area of this advanced and well-protected underground base, there was a huge high-tech meeting room with three walls of electronic screens that recorded numerous bounty missions. Among them, the three largest screens displayed the most active bounty missions in the past few days.

The bounty mission targeted at the Hall of Evil had reached the bounty amount of 1.1 billion dollars.

Chapter 2532
The bounty mission targeted at the Hall of the Sun had also reached the bounty amount of one billion dollars. The bounty mission to protect the Hall of the Sun was even more spectacular. As more and more people signed up for the mission, the bounty pool snowballed to 100 million. In other words, no less than 1,000 bounty hunters were participating in the mission of protecting the Hall of the Sun.

Two men and one woman of varying ages sat in a meeting room with complicated expressions on their faces. The old man in the lead who had a hooked nose and an angular face showed a serious attitude. His eyes were unfathomable. He wore a silver jacket with a golden coin insignia on his chest.

At this moment, he smiled faintly and said to the other two founders, “It seems that we underestimated the Hall of the Sun. With the release of this mission, the Hall of the Sun will be unbeatable.”

Another old man said grimly, “Hmph! The two gods obviously want to fight but they’re using our underground bounty to issue missions against each other instead. They’re pushing us into the line of fire!”

The woman who looked to be in her 50s was dressed very elegantly and decently. She shrugged and said, “I find it quite interesting. In this way, many things that can’t be resolved between the gods can be done through our underground bounty instead. Lord Yale, I think you wouldn’t overlook the benefits of this situation, right?”

The grumpy old man snorted and said, “I’m worried that if this continues, our underground bounty will be targeted sooner or later.”

After listening to the argument between the two, the old man in the lead tapped on the table lightly and said, “I think Madam Peters has a point. Yale, don’t you want the underground bounty to come out into the open and welcome a bright new future? This is an unprecedented opportunity. It‘s not an exaggeration to say that in the future, things that can’t be solved by the gods will be solved by our underground bounty. Moreover, such fierce battles can help us eliminate many weak or incompetent bounty hunters so that only the strong will survive. The underground bounty can usher in a new batch of powerful bounty hunters. When the time comes, it’s not impossible for the underground bounty to come out into the open and take the place of one of the sacred halls.”

As the old man in the lead spoke, Yale’s face changed rapidly. He finally seemed to agree. He said, “Marquis Ron, you have a point, but I’m just worried about that…”

Marquis Ron smiled and said, “Yale, don’t worry. No one dares to make a move against the underground bounty yet.”

At this point, Yale had nothing more to say.

Marquis Ron looked at the bounty mission again and said, “I’ve decided to increase the bounty mission of the Hall of the Sun by 500 million dollars.”

“Marquis Ron, are you trying to help the Hall of the Sun fight against: the Hall of Evil?”

Yale was startled and could not understand Marquis Ron’s actions at all. He said, “The Hall of Evil is an old customer of ours. If you do this and word gets out, I’m afraid it’ll cause unnecessary trouble and even invite retaliation from Vataco.”

Peters was also slightly taken aback but soon realized something.

Marquis Ron smiled and said, “Do you think that the Hall of Evil can deal with the Hall of the Sun now?”

Yale was silent.

Judging from the current situation, the Hall of Evil was in a bad shape. If this continued, the Evil God might really fall from the ranks of the 12. Sacred Gods.

Marquis Ron added, “Since they’re already grasping at straws, why shouldn’t we step in and speed up the results? Besides, it’s not as if you haven’t dealt with Vataco before. Between the two, I’d rather deal with Apollo.”

Chapter 2533
Yale fell silent. Marquis Ron’s words were not without reason.

Vataco was too scheming and never played by the rules. Although he was an old customer of the Underground Bounty Society, many times, he would press the price down to the barest minimum!

Marquis Ron looked at Yale’s face and turned to look at the bounty mission. He pressed the electronic button on the table and said, “Raise the Hall of the Sun’s bounty mission against the Hall of Evil by 500 million dollars. At the same time, spread the news that someone behind the scenes has participated in this bounty mission. Don’t reveal that the Underground Bounty Society has anything to do with this.”

“Yes, Marquis Ron.” A seductive female voice came from the other end.

After doing this, Marquis Ron looked at Yale and Madam Peters. He said, “Let’s welcome the moment when the Hall of Evil, one of the 12 Sacred Halls of the West, is headed for its destruction.”

With a smile, Madam Peters said, “Marquis Ron, I’ll wish you good luck in advance and hope you can become a new god, the Bounty God!”

“Hahaha!” Marquis Ron laughed with pride on his face.

This deal would not result in a loss at all.

Decades after the Underground Bounty Society was established, the Bounty God could finally see the light of day!

On this side, the Underground Bounty Society made a secret fund transfer and raised the bounty of 1.1 billion dollars to 1.6 billion, which instantly caused a sensation in the entire Western underworld.

As the information had been handled with care, many people started to speculate that other gods were involved and ready to strike against the Hall of Evil! The Underground Bounty Society was also happy to see this. As long as the discussion in the outside world shifted the targets to other sacred halls, the Underground Bounty Society would be safe.

In a flash, the remaining ten sacred halls immediately called for a meeting of the gods.

After all the gods analyzed the current situation, half of them chose to take action against the Hall of Evil and secretly lent a helping hand. The other half chose to observe.

Among them was Chief God Zeus in the sacred city of Mount Olympus.

Zeus sat on the golden throne. After hearing the report from his envoy, his face was dark and very ugly. Although the actions of the Hall of the Sun and the Hall of Evil did not violate the prohibition of the gods, if this was allowed to continue, anything that happened between the gods in the future would go through the Underground Bounty Society. In that case, the consequences would be disastrous.

“Father, are we just going to sit back and do nothing? After all, Evil God Vataco is one of the 12 Gods. If he’s killed like this, who will take up the vacant spot? Moreover, once Sun God Apollo gains power, it won’t be a good thing for us either.”

In the golden palace of the sacred city, there was a tall man in a white king’s robe who looked to be about 30 or 40 years old. He wore a platinum crown on his head, looking high-spirited and vigorous. He was the eldest son of Zeus, Leo Sainsbury.

Leo was one of the future masters of the sacred city and also one of the candidates for the next chief god. He was also the eldest son whom Zeus had carefully trained and developed.

Hearing this, Zeus glanced sideways with a hint of coldness in his eyes and asked, “Leo, what do you want to do?”

Chapter 2534
Leo replied respectfully, “Father, you should issue a Chief God’s Order to prohibit the gods from using the Underground Bounty Society to fight. We must maintain the balance between the 12 gods so that Mount Olympus and the Sainsbury family can continue our legacy forever! Only then, the sacred city can belong to the Sainsbury family forever.”

After hearing this, Zeus looked grave and said quietly, “They didn’t violate the Chief God’s Order I issued earlier. If I forcefully issue another Chief God’s Order and interfere with their actions, it will cause resentment from the other gods.”

Leo said, “Father, you’re Zeus, the chief god of the 12 gods. How could the other gods dare to defy your Chief God’s Order?”

Zeus shook his head and said, “Leo, you’re wrong. The gods are independent. Although I’m the chief god of the 12 gods, I have no right to interfere with their actions and choices. What we can govern are Mount Olympus and the sacred city. As for the outside world and the jurisdictions of the 12 gods, we have no right to interfere. You must remember that the gods are equal, and our Sainsbury family can’t be hegemonic!”

Zeus added, “No matter what the result is, we must not interfere by force. If the Hall of Evil is defeated, we’ll elect a new god. It has been a while since the 12 gods welcomed new blood. I’m very much looking forward to having a new god join the ranks.”

Hearing Zeus’ words, Leo’s face darkened. He bowed slightly and said, “Thank you for your teachings. I shall take my leave.”

After saying that, Leo left the golden palace with a team of guards in platinum armor.

Zeus looked at the back of his departing eldest son, sighed helplessly, and said, “This child is too ambitious. It’s not the right time yet. “

After Leo left the golden palace, a man in a black robe outside the door quickly went up to him and asked respectfully, “Lord Leo, what did the chief god say?”

Leo coldly looked at the man and said, “Go back and tell your Lord Vataco that my father will let the gods make their own choices. He doesn’t care if a new god joins the ranks.”

Hearing this, the black-robed man scowled and finally said helplessly, “Thank you for your help, Lord Leo. Lord Vataco has said that as long as he survives, he’ll definitely repay your kindness. I shall take my leave and tell Lord Vataco of the chief god’s decision.”

After saying that, the black-robed man was about to leave.

However, Leo frowned and stopped him. He said, “Wait! Although my father doesn’t want to get involved in this matter, Vataco and I are still friends. Moreover, I don’t want a new god to join us. I don’t really like Apollo of the Hall of the Sun either. Go back and tell Vataco that I’ll help him in secret.”

When the black-robed man heard it, he quickly bowed to Leo and said, “Lord Leo, thank you for your help. Lord Vataco will definitely support you as the new chief god.”

Leo snorted and left with a flick of his robe.

Back to Vataco. He exploded with anger after seeing the new bounty mission. The Hall of Evil had suffered heavy losses by now. In just four days, he had lost half of his bases. Half of the 12 dark angels under his command had died too. This was an unprecedented challenge and crisis faced by the Hall of Evil since its establishment.

“Damn that Apollo! Those hypocritical gods have also chosen to strike out at me at this time too! When I recover from my injuries, I won’t let them off!”

Soon, the black-robed man barged in, bowed to the furious Vataco, and said, “Lord Evil God, Lord Leo has agreed to help us.”

Chapter 2535
When Vataco heard the news, a sinister sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said, “Great! With Lord Leo helping us secretly, let’s see what else Apollo can do!”

Immediately after, Vataco stood up from the blue pool of the essence of life and walked up the steps. The maid behind him quickly stepped forward and draped his coat over him.

Vataco sat on his black throne inlaid with gems and diamonds. Behind it was a window with an image of Jesus on a cross on it. The remaining four great envoys and six dark angels of the Hall of Evil stood below the throne on either side.

The losses were heavy!

With a gloomy expression on his face, Vataco looked at the envoys and dark angels who had been in a miserable state in the past few days. He said, “Next, it‘s a great time for us to counter-attack! Issue my Evil God’s Order for all personnel in each base to prepare for the counter-attack! This time, I want the Hall of the Sun to disappear from the Western underworld!”

Although these envoys and dark angels responded, they inwardly hesitated and wavered.

The current situation was not advantageous for the Hall of Evil.

More and more sacred halls had joined in.

If this continued, the Hall of Evil would be destroyed sooner or later.

Moreover, judging from the situation reported by various bases today, some special forces had appeared among the bounty hunters. It could be determined that some people from other sacred halls had joined in by posing as bounty hunters with the intention to wipe out the Hall of Evil in one fell swoop.
