Chapter 70 Two Matters
Previously at the casino, he rescued Stella's younger brother, Ryan.
The appearance of Joseph Moore disrupted Gabriel Edwards's rhythm.
Initially, he thought that the one who kidnapped Ryan Turner was just a gang leader.
But various signs indicated that this Joseph Moore was extraordinary.
Firstly, Joseph Moore was closely associated with the city councilor, Jack Davis.
And from their interactions, it seemed that Jack Davis was somewhat submissive.
This was indeed strange.
What capability did a gang leader who ran a casino have to make a city councilor lower his stance?
Secondly, Joseph Moore's combat abilities were profound and unpredictable, and his subordinates were not ordinary fighters.
The busty girl, Victoria, and the fighters Ascue and Sungter.
Each of their combat abilities was top-notch.
Although he hadn't confronted Joseph Moore directly, he could feel the powerful aura emanating from Joseph.
Such an aura couldn't be faked.
It must be backed by genuine combat capabilities.
He was definitely an expert.
Thirdly, Joseph Moore had significant interactions with the Silverwood Clan of Ghostly Purgatory Hall.
The last time Sam made trouble for Stella Turner at the revolving restaurant, he was sent by Joseph Moore to collect debts.
Last night, Clarence Norton, the head of the clan, personally led an attack on the club under Joseph Moore's instructions.
What exactly did Joseph Moore have to be able to command Clarence Norton?
Fourthly, and most strangely,
Even though his identity remains a mystery,
many, including Mr. Brooks, understood that his status was extraordinary.
At the very least, he was not someone to be trifled with.
Joseph Moore must have known this as well.
Knowing this, how could Joseph dare to personally lead a chase to kill him over 1.1 million?
All signs indicated that Joseph Moore's concealed identity was definitely not simple!
Leon said, "After you called me that night, I secretly started investigating Joseph Moore. I've gathered some information, but I haven't gotten to the root of it."
"Tell me what you have found!"
Gabriel Edwards exhaled a puff of smoke, looking a bit displeased.
The day after the incident, he asked Stella Turner to buy him a new phone.
That night, he called Leon and explained the situation.
After so many days, with Leon's capabilities, he still hadn't figured out the details about Joseph Moore.
Either Joseph Moore was truly extraordinary, or Leon was incompetent.
But it was most likely the former.
Leon nodded, "Joseph Moore, 29 years old, studied in Jadia during his university years. He has been living in Sapphire Peaks ever since and only returned to Silverwood two years ago to manage three casinos and a club."
"The most important piece of information!"
"In Sapphire Peaks, he once apprenticed under a top-ranked expert in the Underground World Sky List!"
"Sky List powerhourse? Who?" Gabriel Edwards became interested.
No wonder Joseph Moore exuded such a strong aura, he had a masterful teacher.
"That person from the Sky List is known as the 'Outlaw Madman'. It's said that his ranking is quite high. Joseph Moore, being a student of the Outlaw Madman, must be very powerful," Leon said.
"Outlaw Madman?" Gabriel Edwards chuckled, finding the name amusing.
He then asked, "Who compiles this so-called Sky List? What's the basis? Do you have an exact list?"
Last time, when they mentioned Ghost Face, it was described as something mysterious.
Because the Ghost Face was a person from the Sky List.
It could be said that the Sky List is the benchmark for combat power in the Underground World of the Dragon Kingdom.
It was also a measuring stick.
He was becoming increasingly curious about this measuring stick!
Leon explained, "The Sky List is compiled by the Heaven Crypto Studio. Although the Heaven Crypto Studio is mysterious, the list they produced is very accurate and is recognized by the entire Underground World of the Dragon Kingdom."
"Every year-end, the rankings are updated. But only those on the Sky List and the Heaven Crypto Studion know the exact rankings. Many of the rumors outside are false."
"Many high-ranking members of Ghostly Purgatory Hall are also on the Sky List. I've inquired about it."
"But for some reason, those high-ranking members are unwilling to tell me the exact rankings. I only got a bit of information, which is that the ranking of the Outlaw Madman on the Sky List is quite high."
"The high-ranking members of Ghostly Purgatory Hall didn't want to reveal the Sky List rankings to you?" Gabriel Edwards was puzzled.
Rankings, after all, shouldn't be such a guarded secret.
So why wouldn't they tell Leon?
He fell into deep thought, his expression darkening.
It took him a full three minutes to snap back to reality.
But at this moment, with a fierce look in his eyes, he coldly said, "Help me find out Joseph Moore's address. Tomorrow night, I'll go find this guy and kill him!"
There were two reasons for this decision.
Firstly, he was the type to seek revenge for even the smallest grievances.
Last time, he was almost killed in a car crash because of Joseph Moore's hunting.
If he didn't kill this bastard, he wouldn't be able to quell his anger.
Secondly, he always felt that Joseph Moore was the biggest uncertainty on his path in Silverwood.
To prevent this person from doing anything unexpected, Gabriel decided to take the initiative and kill him.
Once he was killed, everything would be settled.
Leon looked up, a bit surprised.
Gabriel Edwards was confident and ruthless.
He nodded, "Understood. I'll send you Joseph's address today."
After discussing Joseph Moore, Gabriel Edwards hesitated for a moment and then said, "The second matter is about Thomas Taylor!"
"You must also know that last night, Clarence Norton, the head of the Silverwood Clan, led a group from Ghostly Purgatory Hall to Thomas Taylor's yet-to-be-opened club. I was there too and helped Thomas Taylor kill Clarence Norton, as well as the gold-ranked fighters Scorpion and Bull."
"Now, the Silverwood Clan is definitely leaderless. And you, the Demon Enforcer Leopard Tail, as a high-ranking official of Ghostly Purgatory Hall, might not have been able to fully intervene in the Silverwood Clan before. But under the current circumstances, you are definitely the most authoritative figure in the Silverwood Clan!"
"I want you to help Thomas Taylor become a member of the Silverwood Clan and promote him to be the head of the Silverwood Clan!"
"Thomas Taylor's strength is still lacking now, but I will train him!"
"But I'm sure he can be of great use! Last night, I deliberately let Thomas Taylor kill Clarence Norton and Scorpion, establishing his authority in the hearts of the clan members."
"As long as it's handled properly, it shouldn't be difficult!"
"And once Thomas Taylor takes control of the Silverwood Clan of Ghostly Purgatory Hall, Ghostly Purgatory Hall's territory in Silverwood will be completely at my command!"
Letting Thomas Taylor kill Clarence Norton last night was actually to pave the way for Thomas Taylor to take control of the Silverwood Clan.
Now that Silverwood is leaderless, with Leon's status in Ghostly Purgatory Hall and Thomas Taylor's current reputation and prestige, this can be achieved!
After thinking for a moment, Leon nodded and said, "Mr. Gabriel, this is feasible. Before coming to see you, I had already been to the Silverwood Clan. Now, with over three hundred members leaderless, they are fighting chaotically for the position of the clan leader."
"After I arrived, I immediately suppressed everything and gained the admiration and recognition of everyone."
"It can be said that the Silverwood Clan now completely listens to me."
"Although it might be a bit abrupt for Thomas Taylor to become the head of the Silverwood Clan, as long as Thomas Taylor is reliable and can withstand the test, with this momentum, I will definitely be able to help him ascend to the position of the head of the Silverwood Clan."
"By then, with Goddess of Wind's activities at the higher levels, this matter can be fully implemented." Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
After hearing Leon's words, Gabriel Edwards was pleased and took a satisfying smoke from his cigarette.
The chess game in Silverwood was becoming more lively and increasingly interesting...
