Chereads / The Black Market / Chapter 9 - Preparations

Chapter 9 - Preparations

Delfino Ramon, one of the bigshots in Asia, famous in the underworld business as one of the leaders in the illegal drug industry was now nervously sweating as he talked with someone over the phone.

As a drug lord, he was very careful in doing his job. And he always made sure that he did not leave any traces behind that will connect to him in every transaction he made. Not even his business partners knew anything about his family. But this Wolf King who came out of nowhere blurted his most hidden secret.

He was truly afraid that his family might be involved if he made even the slightest mistake.

"Okay Mr. Wolf King, when you would you like to do the exchange?" he answered carefully. His sweat trickled down his chubby face.

"Just call me Wolf King, no need to put 'Mister' on it. Anyway, I want the transaction done today, you have until 6 pm to arrive in Busay. And don't forget to bring a lot of money." Cale answered with a wide smile.

"Okay Wolf King, I will arrange everything and don't worry, I will be there before 6 pm. Just wait for my arrival." It was a bit troublesome for him to do the transaction today as he still had another transaction later with some small bosses.

Cale ended the call and made preparations as well. Although he scared Delfino Ramon greatly by exposing his secrets, with just him and Brogen making the exchange, then it will be quite hard.

He opened 'The Black Market' and clicked the Slaves category. He scanned for a bit and bought a dozen men who were skilled in wielding guns. Each of them costs at least a million Black Coins and one of them with the name Santharus costed him more than ten million Black coins. He then equipped the men with guns.

After scanning for a bit he saw several masks in the Weapons category and was pleasantly surprised. Now he can make the transaction without disclosing his identity. He bought a silver wolf mask. Its price was a hefty two million Black Coins. But after reading the description he hastily bought it without hesitation. It wasn't actually a mask, but a helmet. The mask can enhance his perception and also allowed him to see clearly during the night. It was also bulletproof and had a cool looking appearance with its silver color and ice blue highlights.

He also found military clothing in the Weapons category and bought it for his men. He then bought Gun skills for Brogen, since he was only skilled in close combat.

A beautiful gun-shaped orb floated in his hands. He then handed it to Brogen. He himself was unsure of how to use the orbs, but then he saw Brogen place the orb on his forehead. The orb slowly entered Brogen's head which fascinated Cale greatly.

In the southern part of Cebu, in a huge villa, a chubby man wearing luxurious clothing collapsed weakly on his million-dollar sofa. His subordinates hastily supported him in worry.

"Cancel all my appointments later and tell our men to get ready for a huge transaction," Delfino ordered helplessly.

His men were quite shocked at the sudden change of events. They thought that they will be transporting drugs again to the small-time leaders of some organizations, but to think that their boss said that there will be a huge transaction happening later made them a bit nervous.

After serving their Boss Delfino for several years, changes in his schedule never happened yet. Even if it was some bigwigs in Europe and the US, his boss never changed his schedule. And now with this sudden development, it made them a bit nervous and curious to know who might be the person their boss talked with to make him helplessly change plans.

"Yes boss!" despite their nervousness, they still obeyed him.

"Boss, who was the person you were talking with?" Anton his most trusted subordinate asked him curiously.

The people inside the room were all his trusted subordinates, but this Anton was the man he trusted the most. He saved his life quite a lot of times whenever conflict happened in some of his transactions.

He glanced at Anton briefly while frowning heavily, he then said "He called himself Wolf King. This guy's intelligence department was very resourceful. They knew a lot about me and the worst thing is that we don't know anything about this guy."

Anton looked visibly shocked at his boss's reply. To think that despite their carefulness, this Wolf King guy was able to dig a lot of things about them.

"What are your plans boss?" he asked nervously. This unknown enemy was very dangerous for them. It is like a ticking time bomb that will explode anytime without their knowledge.

"We will know soon. First, let us meet the guy." Delfino answered while wiping the sweat on his forehead.

On an open grassland below a tall mountain, more than a dozen men clad in full military clothing and armor were standing alertly while eyeing their surroundings like hungry wolves. Right behind them were two military hummers with M249 machine guns mounted on their backs.

The two hummers were something he bought from 'The Black Market' which cost him six million Black Coins each.

"Relax guys, we are only here to make a transaction. You don't need to be so serious. Oh, by the way, call me Wolf King for now." Cale said casually.

"Yes, Wolf King!" The men answered in unison.

Cale leaned lazily on one of the hummers while checking the time on his phone.

When it was 5:28 pm, several vehicles moved towards their location.

"Is it them?" Anton who was driving the car at the front asked Delfino.

"It must be them. Tell the men to compose themselves. This guy cannot be trifled with casually." Delfino answered as he scrutinized the silhouette of the man who was lazily leaning on a hummer.
