A Wizard's Survival Guide to the 20th Century
Chapter 16 16Mutual Compromise
At last count, there were 25 members of the Bridgewick Gang, and underneath those 25 were 41 non-gang wild wizards.
These 66 people in total form an exquisite class pyramid.
At the top is the Brahmin who is the leader [merchant], followed by the Kshatriyas composed of four deputies, and below that are the Vaisyas with 20 ordinary members. In the end, there were 41 Sudras who were regarded as their prey.
This exquisite pyramid seems to maintain a wonderful balance. Despite the fatigue, the "businessman" can still manage to maintain the order of the gang.
But what he didn't know was that the stability of the triangle was just a human fantasy, and it didn't apply to the world of wizards.
Because a small episode can cause the pyramid to peel off layer by layer and collapse suddenly.
……
The "Businessman" stood at the door of the café.
He silently stroked the magazine of the Sten submachine gun.
"Values go up."
The bullets in the magazine were shrouded in a thin layer of light, making them seem a little more precious.
This is the sorcery of the "merchant" who can extract or give value to items, increasing or decreasing their effects.
The "businessman" didn't open the door, he was waiting.
When they first arrived at the dock, they received a note from Owensto, which detailed Bruno's plan.
If it is Bruno who comes out, it means that he has betrayed him and has become a C-level, and the "businessman" will kill him and let Owens take his place.
If it is Owens who walks out, it means that he solved Bruno and showed his loyalty. Even if he becomes C-class, he can still survive - although he will be monitored.
Henshaw was the unlikely winner.
But there is one last possibility, which is that Levi kills Bruno, Owens and Henshaw in succession.
The "businessman" did not dare to imagine that this was possible, because it meant that Levi's power was beyond the control of the "businessman".
At this time, the door of the cafe was opened.
The "businessman" raised his submachine gun vigilantly. Behind him, other members of the gang also aimed their guns, but they did not dare to shoot at will. The leader's prey must be killed by the leader himself.
The cafe was dark.
A head was suddenly thrown out, rolled twice on the ground, leaving a trail of blood, and finally stopped at the feet of the "businessman."
The "businessman" looked down and his heart suddenly dropped.
There was no doubt that it was Bruno's head. His neck seemed to have been roughly torn off, and a section of his spine remained.
His eyes were still wide with fear, and no one wanted to know what he went through before he died.
"How can it be……"
'Businessman' couldn't help but think.
A 3D level wizard was besieged by two 2Ds and a 1D. Not only was he not killed, he also killed them back.
"How powerful is he?"
"Could it be that he deceived the eyes of [bystanders] and that he is not D-class, but C-class, or even B-class?"
The "Businessman" swallowed. The possibility that the other party was Class B was extremely slim, but it was a definite fact that he was Class C. Even if it wasn't originally, it is now.
And he must be a C-level person who is good at fighting. Facing such an opponent, a few Sten submachine guns may not be enough.
Other gang members also saw the head rolling over. Even if some people couldn't see the face of the head clearly, they thought of something.
Silently, fear spreads.
Footsteps sounded slowly, and Levi calmly raised his gun and walked out of the cafe step by step.
He put his right hand in his pocket, raised his left hand flat, and raised his collar to cover the bruises on his neck.
His blood-stained coat was blowing in the wind, and he looked more like a cold killer than anyone else present.
The "Businessman" faced him with guns facing each other, like two wild beasts that met while patrolling the territory.
The "Businessman" looked at Levi. He tried to catch some signs of weakness from the other party, but the latter seemed to be calm as usual. There was no shiver of pain, not even a bleeding wound.
"He wasn't even hurt!"
The "Businessman" had a stern look on his face, and he managed to deal with the three of them without any damage. This was something that the "Businessman" himself could not do.
The atmosphere was a little stagnant for a while, until Levi took the lead to break the calm.
"I think we have better solutions besides fighting."
Levi's words echoed in the air, as if a trace of living water had been injected into the dead pool.
After hearing this, the members present had their own thoughts.
The "businessman" thought for a moment and nodded slightly:
"You're right."
"Indeed, I know you can easily take my life, but you certainly can't dodge the 20 Sten submachine guns pointing here."
With that said, the "businessman" simply put down his gun and pointed his eyes at Levi to the surrounding gang members.
In the dark night, the specific number of guns could not be seen, but there were definitely not 20. There were maybe a dozen, but that didn't matter, Levi couldn't even dodge one.
"Let your people leave the dock." Levi said.
"We have already done this. Everyone in the gang is here." "Businessman" said coldly.
Levi nodded, but he was not in a hurry to speak. This was a business, so it was impossible for only one party to profit.
"But you have to pay PHP 900 in compensation."
"Businessman" said the second half of the sentence immediately.
"This is our rule."
"Is this a toll?"
"No, this is the price you paid for the three people you killed."
The "Businessman" said solemnly, he was also using this to test the other party's confidence. If the other party decisively refused, it would mean that his power far exceeded his own.
"Really..." Levi was silent for a while and said calmly, "But I am only willing to pay 300 Philippine dollars."
The price was reduced by one third...
This result was expected by the "merchants", and being able to bargain showed that their power was evenly matched.
In this case, compromise is the best answer.
He wasn't coveting the $900, he was just trying to make the compromise look more like a deal than a failure on his part.
"make a deal."
The "businessman" said: "I will tell you an bearer account, and I hope you can settle the money as soon as possible."
"No, I'll pay in cash."
Levi took out his wallet with his right hand from his pocket, and pulled out six 50 Philippine dollar bills by touch, and took out an extra 20 Philippine dollar note.
"I'll add 20 Philippine dollars and lend me a car."
The "businessman" pointed his finger, and a member trotted over and took the banknotes from Levi's hand.
After confirming that it was correct, the "businessman" glanced, and the gang members moved closer to one side, leaving a car on the other side.
Levi kept his gun gesture unchanged and slowly walked towards the car.
A gang member couldn't help it anymore. He looked at the "businessman", hoping to get instructions from the latter. Everyone knew that if he wanted to take action, now was the best opportunity.
But the "businessman" didn't change at all. He just watched in silence as Levi opened the door and got in the car.
It wasn't until the car started and Levi left the cafe that he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Chief, should we try to monitor him?" At this time, the member asked.
"Surveillance is nothing. Do you think he can't find you?" the "businessman" said with a cold face.
Let this group of members who are less than 2D monitor Levi. Once discovered, they can only die.
Besides, what if we knew what Li Wei was doing? Gathering gang members to surround him?
This is impossible, killing Levi is not a simple matter. Especially if he is injured and his control over gang members weakens, then the 1D and 2D people he has trained will definitely hunt each other and take the opportunity to rush to C-level.
At that time, it will be difficult to restrain them.
He thought to himself that his management of the wizards in the city was still too lax, and he didn't even notice that there was a C-class in his territory.
"Conduct another statistics on the wizards in the city." The "businessman" added, and then said, "Let's go and see what's going on in the cafe."
I was a little constipated writing this chapter.
Just modified it.
