Chapter 579 Dispatched, Revelation
"Are you kidding me? Do you even know the goal that I am having? Additionally, where is this place that you want to go to?" Sylvia asked with a frown on her face.
"We are going to the Devin Stronghold." Jack replied without hiding anything. At the end of the day, Sylvia was definitely going to know about where they were going to.
And right now, even if she decided not to go along, there was no way that Jack was going to allow her to refuse. That was definitely unless she decided to cancel the contact that the two of them had signed.
At that point, he would not be having any responsibility towards her, and he would not have to force her to be together with him so that he could protect her from whoever it was that was being sent by her brother to pick her up.
As for the support from Sylvia's family, that was not something that he cared about. In any case, it was not as if he needed their support. And if they were located within the Devin stronghold, no matter what, he had to take care of them.
"Seriously? That is the place that you have decided to go? Not only is my family located in that place, but even if you go there, let me tell you in advance, you will definitely not be able to gain any advantage.
According to the information that I have received from my aunt, currently, several organizations and families within the stronghold have begun competing for power. And the appearance of a person like you will definitely attract much attention towards yourself.
At that time, as long as they get information that you are actually a superhuman at the age that you are in, they would definitely target you. And it will not be difficult for information about you to spread to the other strongholds.
At that time, it will be like you have a big target on your back. The number of enemies that you will be having will definitely be innumerable. And other than that, the number of people that will want to recruit you using all methods possible will definitely be high as well.
Are you sure that you can handle that?" Sylvia asked as she looked at Jack with a serious expression on her face.
To say the truth, she found herself caring about Jack and his group. At the end of the day, they had interacted several times during the time that Jack and this group had been inside this Stronghold.
And although they had started off badly, but that was completely forgotten. At the end of the day, it was just a small matter.
"What do you think? It is not as if I don't have the information about the Devin Stronghold. Of course I know that it is a big stronghold, and there is a reason for me to go there." Jack responded.
As for the matter of him being targeted, he didn't really care much about it. At the end of the day, he was supposed to establish an organization that was well known within the entire Stronghold domain.
So he might as well take this chance to start the establishment of the organization. As long as he himself possessed a lot of strength, something that he was definitely going to possess with the resources that could be found within the Devin stronghold, he was going to definitely complete that part of the requirement for the system authority upgrade.
Sylvia looked at Jack who was looking at her with a serious expression on his face, and she could not help but hesitate. Could it be true that Jack actually possessed the confidence of going in a place like that?
But at the same time, she could not help but wonder what was Jack's current power level. The thing that she found strange about Jack and his group was the fact that they always possessed resources that were way more advanced, at a level that was way above the stronghold that they were currently in.
So, she believed that perhaps there was someone that was always supplying Jack with the resources. But who could it be? Could it be that this person who was supplying Jack with the resources, was the reason why Jack had actually managed to advance to the level that he was currently in?
Of course, the thing that got her attention he most was the fact that even Samantha, someone who was just a small guardian within the Butterfly organization, had actually managed to reach the superhuman level.
Although she was not sure about the power level that Samantha currently possessed, but nevertheless, for some reason, she could tell that Samantha was stronger than she was. And that was something that surprised her.
Had it not been for the fact that she did not want to owe Jack any other favor, she would have definitely asked Jack to help her in making sure that she was stronger as well.
"If that is the case, then let's go. But let me tell you in advance, don't expect that my family is going to support you. My family is only going to support the organization that you are going to create, but not you yourself.
Although my family is a giant within the Devin Stronghold, we are not the most powerful one. For that reason, if you are actually targeted by someone that is stronger than my family, don't expect that my family is going to fight to the death for you." Sylvia stated.
Jack looked at her with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He did not expect that Sylvia was going to agree to go to the Devin Stronghold. He had expected that she was going to resist.
Could it be that she had already completed the goal that she was having? That was kind of new. At the same time, he could not help but wonder just what kind of goal she was having.
Looking at Jack's curious expression, Sylvia immediately knew what Jack was thinking about. She simply snorted and said, "Of course I have completed the goal that I was having. I had promised my brother that I would be able to gain something without depending on my family.
And of course, if I say something, it's implies that it has to be something that is of a high value even to a family of my own. With the level of resources and strength that my family possesses, they would not definitely value just anything.
And right now, I do possess a mind ability. With this, it is definitely something important, and my value in the family is going to be raised. So, it can be said that I have already completed my goal.
As for what I was doing for the past few days, I was simply getting familiar with the ability. I had to gain good control of it, before finally going back home."
Jack nodded his head in response. So that was how it was. In any case, just like what Sylvia had said, it was true that special abilities were actually quite rare within the stronghold domain.
Of course the number of people that possessed special abilities was quite high if they decided to count them one by one. But those that possessed special abilities that related to the mind, they were quite few.
"Okay. We are leaving in 3 hours." Jack stated. Immediately after that, he turned around and went back into the building.
As for Sylvia, she did not follow him inside. Instead, she decided to go back to the mansion that she owned, to prepare herself for the departure.
And to say the truth, she had not been expecting that they were going to leave today, although she was expecting that they were going to leave some time soon. So, she had already began making preparations, but she needed to finalize the preparations.
…
Ivy and Daniel looked at the man in front of them with furious expressions on their faces. At this point, they did not know what to do in the situation that they were currently in.
Currently, all of them were injured. And other than that, they had both of their limbs tied, restricting their movements.
Currently, Ivy was the strongest amongst them. But even so, she was not that much strong considering that she was only a four-star ordinary human.
As for the ropes that were used to bind the two of them, they were kind of special, capable of restricting even a seven-star ordinary human. So, she was not capable of doing anything at this moment.
Currently, they were inside a room. The room itself was not that big, and from looking at it, one could see that there was a door that led towards the front of the building, where it could be seen clearly that there was a store.
That's right. Right now, they were tied up inside a store. And other than the man that was standing in front of them, there was an old man and a young man behind him.
Although the two of them had expressions that were filled with hatred, they did not do anything as they looked at the man in front of them from behind. Just from the eyes of the two, it was clear that if they really possessed an ability of taking care of this person, they would have definitely not hesitated to kill him.
"I'm going to ask you the final time. Can you tell me how much you know about Jack and his group. I have been informed that you have interacted with him." The man stated.
Of course, this man was none other than Antonio. During the past 3 days, he had managed to heal up. Of course he had not yet recovered to his full strength, but nevertheless, it was not difficult for him to be able to take care of a 6-star ordinary human right now.
Having already realized that Jack had dominated the entire stronghold, Antonio realized that it was going to be difficult for him to be able to take his revenge.
But still, he was not willing to give up. For that reason, he was trying to look for a way that he was going to get something from Jack, something that was going to enable him to recover from the injuries that he had suffered before.
"Let me tell you something. I'm pretty sure that if you encounter Jack, you will definitely not know how you died." Ivy looked at the man in front of her as she said boldly. She was not afraid of this person in front of her, although she knew that he was definitely capable of killing her.
