Chapter 216 Accepting the Bounty
"Bellamy, what do you mean by that? My son is being coerced. If he doesn't agree, he'll lose his life. In short, I don't think this matter should be attributed to Bach!" Carlo Gambino said sternly, without any sign of compromise.
Bellamy smiled slightly on the screen. "Carlo, this is ultimately your personal choice, but everyone must abide by the rules of the Continental Hotel!"
"Furthermore, you can only represent the five major families of New York, but there are some matters that require their attention. You are not yet the one who holds complete power over the seat!"
"Bellamy! Are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?!" Carlo glared at him, his voice rising several decibels.
"Let's decide this by vote," another person in power suddenly said.
The others nodded in agreement.
Bellamy said, "Alright, raise your hand if you agree to issue a bounty for Bach."
As soon as he finished speaking, eight people on the screen slowly raised their hands.
Upon seeing this, Carlo Gambino turned pale.
Bellamy gloated: "Carlo, this isn't me targeting you, it's everyone's decision. I advise you to obediently hand over Bach."
"Fuck!" Seeing that there was no room for negotiation, Carlo cursed angrily and got up to leave the conference room.
Bellamy watched Carlo leave, gave a disdainful smile, then looked at Weston, "Issue a bounty for Bach, target: one gold coin!"
Weston's expression shifted.
One gold coin—that's the highest bounty, isn't it? It seems Bellamy and Carlo have a deep-seated grudge; they're even using gold coins as a reward just to annoy each other!
At that moment, Carlo Gambino arrived in the meeting room, and one of his men quickly stepped forward and asked, "Godfather Carlo, how is the situation?"
"Spread the word: if any assassin from the Continental Hotel dares to kill Bach, they will be an enemy of the Gambino family. Not only him, but his entire family will be brought to justice!"
"My words as the one in power should be enough to deter those assassins."
Hearing Carlo's words, the subordinate nodded. He knew that the negotiations had failed, so he had to adopt another plan, which was to use the identity of the person in charge to intimidate the assassins of the Continental Hotel.
This might save young Master Bach's life!
Not long after.
The news of the bounty on Bach Gambino reached the ears of many assassins. When they learned that the reward was a gold coin, many assassins' eyes lit up with unparalleled excitement, far more so than when they accepted the bounty on the hunt for Si She and others!
But the Gambino family's words were also learned by many assassins the next second.
Some assassins who had originally intended to try to assassinate Bach immediately abandoned the idea. Carlo was a representative of the Gambino family and a seat holder favored by the five major families of New York.
To survive in the mainland hotel industry, you can't afford to offend them.
For a time, the situation was exactly as Carlo Gambino had predicted; no one dared to accept the bounty mission.
In a lobby of the Continental Hotel in New York, many assassins shook their heads and sighed. They weren't even sure if they could succeed, and if they offended the Gambino family again, they might as well give up on life.
"Weston, I'll take this bounty!"
But a sudden sound broke the atmosphere, and all the assassins turned their gazes to the White Tiger.
"This...this is the White Tiger who's recently gained some fame. He actually dared to accept this bounty! Isn't he afraid of retaliation from the Gambino family?!"
"Yes! Although the stories about White Tiger and Azure Dragon have been circulating like wildfire lately, they are still struggling to cope with the five major families of New York."
"A newbie is still a newbie, reckless and overconfident. They need to learn from their mistakes and suffer a bit. Let's give them the bounty and see if they can succeed!"
Baihu remained expressionless in the face of the surrounding chatter, simply rising and walking towards Weston.
Chen An, on the other side, had already learned of this news. It was he who had asked Baihu to accept the bounty, which was a gold coin, so why not take it?
Since Bach was going to die anyway, we might as well do something for him before we die!
On the other side, Weston looked at White Tiger and confirmed again, "White Tiger, are you sure you want to take this mission? It's very difficult, with an 80% chance of death and a 99% chance of injury or death. You've only been with the Continental Hotel for a few days. You can take on some simpler missions to improve your skills."
White Tiger shook his head, "No need, I'm very confident in my strength. This is the bounty I'll take; gold coin rewards are quite rare."
Upon hearing this, Weston ultimately said nothing and began inputting White Tiger's information, assigning the task to him.
"Is it still the four of you on this mission?" Weston asked.
"Yes." White Tiger nodded.
"Alright, that's enough. This bounty is currently only open to you, so there's no need to rush into action. You can discuss your strategy. If you're short on weapons, the Mainland Hotel can provide you with a set. I hope you return safely."
Although he knew the chances were very low.
Jerome was sitting in a chair drinking whiskey when he suddenly spoke up, "I'll take this bounty too!"
Upon hearing this, Weston was taken aback, then scolded, "Jerome, are you drunk? What are you doing getting involved? Are you out of your mind?!"
Jerome didn't reply, but walked step by step to the white tiger. "Whether you suggest I join or not, I don't want the reward, and you don't have to worry about me when I leave."
After a moment's thought, Baihu asked, "Do you have a grudge against the Gambino family?"
"A little," Jerome nodded.
"Alright, let's act together then, but we won't care if you become a burden," said the White Tiger.
Jerome smiled slightly, "Don't worry, my strength is not necessarily weaker than yours."
Then, looking at Weston, he said, "You don't need to persuade me anymore, just start recording!"
Seeing this, Weston shook his head helplessly, "If you want to die, then die."
Chen An, who was in the hotel, was also puzzled. Why did Jerome suddenly come to join in the fun? Did he really have a grudge against the Gambino family? However, his participation would not affect anything.
Then his gaze fell upon the Snake and the others.
After leaving the Continental Hotel, they went straight to complete the final gold transaction with Sean Luke. It was estimated that the 110 million US dollars would arrive in their account soon.
Upgrading my own system won't be far off, it's really not easy.
The next billion US dollars needed will likely be even more difficult to raise in a short period of time!
.........
At Carlo Gambino's home.
"What?! Someone accepted my bounty to kill them! Who's so reckless?!" Bach was extremely nervous as he listened to his subordinates' report on what had just happened at the Continental Hotel.
"Young Master Bach, these are four assassins who recently joined the Continental Hotel: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise. Oh, and there's also a top assassin, Jerome. We need to be most careful with him. The other four shouldn't be able to get in!"
