The man looked in surprise at the money, several times his salary, and smiled as he quickly ran inside. Soon the food began to arrive.
Jack and Will got roasted pork ribs, they loved it so much, their tails wouldn't stop wagging.
Ringo left when he was full, with the pair staggering behind him. Ringo laughed at the two who ate too much.
He felt at least four eyes on him. Rolling his eyes, he pulled out a few thin, three finger length needles from his pants. They were hidden and stuck in the fabric. He moved his hand slightly and then turned to leave.
The four watching him fell to the floor, trembling, their mouths open in a soundless scream.
Each of them had needles pierced their eyes, a puncture that reached their brains.
They weren't dead, maybe they could survive, but it wasn't Ringo's business. He took the pair away from the city. He'd received the information, the target was on the Northern continent. He simply went to the Fabian company and rented a jet.
It was fast, and he didn't have to do any work. Antonio wasn't the pilot, which surprised him, but considering he doesn't like making friends like old Han, he was understanding.
He flew for a few hours before landing in a coastal town in Raylen.
The cold northern climate excited the pair, finally returning to their natural habitat.
Ringo didn't care, he looked at the address, a mansion 34 kilometers from their current position.
Leaving the city, he transformed into his feline form, carrying the backpack in his mouth. He ran away, flanked by Will and Jack.
He could go faster, but the pair had been stuck for too long. Now they could run, so he brought them along for some exercise.
Ringo ran for half an hour before stopping. With Will and Jack snorting like tired horses, they approached the mansion. With his vision, he could clearly see the heavily guarded mansion in the distance.
He truly didn't understand the man's courage for daring to attack him if he knew what he'd done to the general. He could only assume he thought his identity would protect him.
Ringo didn't care about this guy's reasons, nor any excuses. Jack and Will could have died. This made Ringo think he should train the pair to resist poison as soon as possible!
So, he left the duo on standby, Leaving them to take care of his backpack while he transformed into the Nightmare spirit form and entered the mansion through the basement. He located himself using his spiritual sense and quickly passed through the mansion's walls until he reached a room on the fifth floor with only one man inside.
There, a strong, middle aged man smoking a cigar was working on a computer. Ringo hid under the bed while he transformed into human form.
He opened his mouth and began to emit a frequency that would break any internal component of a camera, of course, the effect of blowing up the target's computer was also achieved.
-Fuck! - When the computer exploded, the man yelled angrily, staring at the broken device.
A knock sounded on the door as the guard asked. - Sir, is everything okay?
-Yes, that shit blew up in my face! Get another computer! - The man backed away, exhaling heavily through his nose. - Fuck, that fucking burnt metal smell.
Ringo was already behind the man as he stood up. The moment he turned around, his eyes widened. Ringo grabbed his throat just as he wanted to scream, staring at him with cold, indifferent eyes.
-You know me? - Ringo asked through his sunglasses.
The man shook his head desperately.
-No? So you mean you weren't the one who tried to poison me? - Ringo was still calm, but he could hear his heart skip a beat.
But he still shook his head.
-Really? - Ringo smiled at him and he nodded quickly.
Ringo laughed, not in the mood to play with him. If he were Lin Wei Xian, the brain loving idiot, he might have enjoyed torturing him, but looking at the idiot's fearful face, he lost interest.
He tightened his grip on his throat, staring at him blankly.
The grip on the man's neck turned his skin increasingly purple, his eyes bulging, his hands trying everything to free him, but to no avail. He stood there, with an iron grip, until the man stopped moving.
Ringo watched the dead man for a few seconds, tossed him aside, and left the same way he'd come in.
Finding Will and Jack, he saw his account balance increase by 20 million and called the number he'd called earlier. He was quickly answered. - Okay, we're fine.
The man was silent for a moment before saying. - Okay, if you need anything, you can call me. My name is Wang Yuan.
-Okay. - With that, Ringo hung up.
He transformed again and ran back with the Long-Fanged Wolf Bears.
The next night, he was back in Hesla, at the same Victoria Hotel. He ordered room service as soon as he arrived and waited.
When the food arrived, the same pastrami sandwich, he took a bite.
This time, there was no poison.
Laughing a little, he waved. Apparently someone got the message. It didn't matter, it was an interesting trip.
He tasted some of Will and Jack's food just in case, before handing it to them.
The trio ate happily.
The next day, Ringo woke up early and went to the twenty-third floor lobby. He was ready to gather some information about the Death Bell inmates and also look for some Espers with interesting powers.
They could be useful in the future, whether for nourishment or for creating some kind of genetic serum.
Not that he expects to be like Esgod, after all, his Esper gene doesn't focus on that, but creating some abilities through the assimilation of these genes isn't impossible.
As soon as he appeared on that floor, a large group of assassins quickly moved aside, making way for him, their eyes fearful and whispering to each other.
Ringo, with his enhanced hearing, could hear perfectly.
-Is that guy?!
-Yes, his nickname is Death Scream. Pink hair, white skin and sunglasses, is really him! he's a Ghost-rank assassin! Death Scream!
-He really killed a Hesla general? The 20 million bounty... it's really tempting. -
-Who cares about the general? He killed a Dark Net executive!
-Seriously?! How do you know that?
-My brother told me, he's a ghost Assassin. He said there's a fight going on between the Dark Net directors. They say one of them tried to kill Death Scream with poison to gain Hesla's support, but the man was found hanged in his office the next day! No one saw how he got in or out, only his dead body was left!
-Holy shit! No wonder he's a Assassin Ghost Rank!
-No, even my brother is afraid of him...
-Fuck! it's better to stay away from him!
-He's handsome and strong... maybe he needs a woman.
-Handsome? I feel like he's going to pull out a gun and blow your brains out after he cums.
-What do you know? That's called being cool!
-Jessy... you have mental problems.
...
Ringo was interested, so that idiot wanted Hesla's support... but Ringo ignored it the next moment. The man was dead, that's all that mattered.
He approached the reception desk and picked up a tablet, searching for the information he wanted.
Information about Death Bell Island was scarce, but he only wanted to know about the prisoners, not their location, so that was much easier to find.
The list was quite complete, with arrest dates, names, and general information about the prisoners, but since there was no internal information, it was only possible to know who entered. Whether the target was used as an experiment or redeemed was impossible to find out here.
Ringo took a quick look at the contents and sent it to his cell phone, then searched for information on Espers.
He had to purchase all the information because the powers were only available in the paid content. Even so, he found some very interesting powers, such as energy rebound, animal control, telekinesis...
Some he didn't even need to buy the information because they were on Death Bell Island.
But soon he became suspicious, because he found his own file, not as Death Scream, but as Ringo Jones.
Curious, he bought it and started reading.

[Name: Six (Ringo Jones)]
[Origin: ???]
[Super Gene: Esper - ???]
[Reward: 10,000,000 - Alive (Germinal) / 500,000 Information (Hesla)]
[Introduction: Wanted by Germinal, general information is unknown, he has never been seen after receiving his reward. Two months ago, Hesla placed a reward for relevant information about him. ... Two individuals (probably women) are searching for information about Ringo Jones all over the world, probably Hesla military personnel (Photo Attachment)...]
...

He was confused by the lack of information about his genes, but still knowing he was an Esper. Could it have been Germinal who shared this?
But the next moment, as he continued reading, Ringo frowned. Why was Hesla looking for him?
If it were recent, he might have thought they had linked him to the late General Joseph, but they had been searching for him long before that, that didn't make sense.
Counting the time, he was still training on the Northern Continent with Jack and Will at the time.
Confused, he began searching for information about the pair of pursuers.
There wasn't much, except that by their height and voice, they were probably two women. It was also indicated that they had military bearing and spoke with a Hesla accent, so they were probably from there.
Ringo looked at the pair's current location, they were wandering near the Star Dragon.
Thoughtfully, he decided to pay them a visit to understand what was going on.
