Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger-Chapter 909 - 849: A Bad Premonition

"You're right!"

Ryan Donovan had nothing to say because he knew that if he were in Mountain Eagle's place, there's no way he could appear as composed and generous as this big shot...

Especially when there had been conflicts between them before, Mountain Eagle's restraint from sabotaging him was already a show of grace.

If it were other leaders from the Underworld, just based on Ryan Donovan's subtle threats before, it would be enough for him to be torn apart.

It was precisely Mountain Eagle's habitual conduct that gave Ryan Donovan the illusion of possibly catching a ride.

Upon hearing Mountain Eagle's words, Ryan Donovan was startled and then chuckled wryly, saying, "I thought we helped you out so much that it would change your impression of us..."

Mountain Eagle brewed a new pot of black tea and then smiled, saying, "Your people participated in the snow disaster rescue as volunteers. If you want rewards or appreciation, go find the State Government or the Koyukuk Town leaders.

Buddy, doing good deeds can seek returns, but you've come to the wrong place..."

Ryan Donovan knew he lacked sufficient leverage, facing Mountain Eagle's attitude, he helplessly nodded and said, "You're right, but why not take a look at the USB that Colonel Lynch gave you? Many of the pieces of information in there were brought up by me to them through the United States Air Force Intelligence Bureau.

Sir, there are many intelligence departments in the United States, but the United States Air Force Intelligence Bureau has deep cooperation with NASA; I guarantee there's much content in the intelligence there that would interest you."

Mountain Eagle was taken aback for a moment; he naturally knew what the United States Air Force Intelligence Bureau was responsible for...

Their core functions are divided into two parts...

The first is intelligence gathering and analysis: They are responsible for collecting information on foreign military activities, technical development, and threat intelligence through aerial, space, and network means, focusing on military strategy, geographic spatial information, signal intelligence (SIGINT), and cyber threats.

Second is technical support: They provide real-time tactical intelligence for Air Force operations, including target location, battlefield environment assessment, and electronic warfare support.

However, with changes in the world's situation and the increase in United States anti-terrorism pressure, the United States Air Force also joined counter-terrorism actions and provided significant tactical support in many operations.

For instance, launching high-altitude drones for reconnaissance and bombing according to ground intelligence personnel's demands.

They can also provide support biased toward geographic and cyber signal technology.

Most importantly, the intelligence content of the United States Air Force Intelligence Bureau is shared with the United States National Reconnaissance Office and the United States Defense Intelligence Agency.

When purely discussing technical and tactical intelligence, they are more competent than the Department of Homeland Security and CIA.

But Mountain Eagle couldn't think of what they could provide for him; he wasn't planning to bomb anyone?

If he indeed planned to attack someone, his bionic drone combined with Google Maps, in localized small-scale combat, would be more useful than the United States satellite.

Mountain Eagle took out the USB and toyed with it in his hand, asking, "What's inside here?"

Ryan Donovan spread his hands and said, "Inside, there are satellite surveillance photos from some places in Sinaloa State, Mexico, for the past three days, along with dossiers of key figures of the Sinaloa Group and safe house locations.

Of course, it also includes Shorty Guzman, which isn't secret information since almost everyone knows where he is, but almost no one can rush in and capture him.

Whether it's a regular army or mercenaries, as long as they enter his territory, they'll be discovered with no chance to act."

Mountain Eagle looked at Ryan Donovan's expression, pondered for a moment, and said, "These pieces of information might be useful for me, but not enough to make me see you in a different light..."

Ryan Donovan saw that Mountain Eagle was interested and smiled, saying, "Forgive my impertinence, I've been investigating and collecting intelligence about you. I know you have deep connections with Arctic Fox, having them execute a series of missions in Syria.

But now, the situation in Syria has changed. A guy named 'Hyena' leading a mercenary company called P·B has paved a humanitarian corridor through Iraq and established a safety zone at the Iraq-Syria border area.

Arctic Fox's business there is on hold..."

Mountain Eagle frowned and said, "Then what?"

Ryan Donovan heard this, his expression a bit odd, and said, "You don't know?"

Mountain Eagle said in a deep voice, "What should I know?"

Ryan Donovan deliberated for a moment and said, "Arctic Fox had a conflict with that 'Hyena' in Mosul and suffered a significant setback near Baghdad.

I received some intelligence that some people over in Washington are extremely displeased with that 'Hyena,' and someone is willing to pay a huge bounty for that 'Hyena's' head.

The Air Force Intelligence Bureau has precise location information on 'Hyena,' and can provide detailed personnel composition and terrain intelligence of his base.

If you are from Arctic Fox and want revenge, then this information is worth tens of millions!

Many people want that 'Hyena' dead. If you can kill him, you can get over a hundred million US dollars in bounty from those big shots."

Mountain Eagle listened, then squeezed his nose hard...

These past few weeks have been too calm for him; it was only now that he realized that Blood Fox and the others have not contacted him for a long time.

He actually knew the status of the business in Syria; the sudden emergence of P·B company disrupted Li Chengji's plans...

However, Li Chengji wasn't disheartened...

Because the main body of the P·B Company's security zone was centered around the Kurds, the most crucial defense force there is an international volunteer group composed entirely of women, and Li Chengji is one of the sponsors behind the scenes.

The so-called security zone is essentially a ceasefire area endorsed by major countries, with the P·B Company as its manager. However, they don't restrict underground financial operations within the zone; in fact, it makes Li Chengji's business much less troublesome.

Black money from all over the world enters the security zone under the guise of donations. Then these funds are laundered through empty buying and selling under the pretext of international procurement, leaving two-tenths of the supplies for the security zone's beneficiaries, with the remainder laundered into the accounts of various international trade companies.

There are some extremely complex financial operation processes and methods involved, the details of which Mountain Eagle isn't too clear about, but he knows that every month, Li Chengji deposits dividends into his account according to their initial agreement.

It was Mountain Eagle who pushed the Arctic Fox and Holy Grail Knight to support Li Chengji, allowing her to smoothly start business in Syria...

But now, hearing what Ryan Donovan implied, the Arctic Fox and Holy Grail Knight are of no use there; they've even had conflicts with that 'Hyena'.

Li Chengji, as the Big Sister, didn't interrupt Mountain Eagle's share despite this, which is quite commendable!

However, Mountain Eagle isn't in the mood to think about money right now; he has a particularly bad premonition...

If there's been personnel loss for the Arctic Fox, Blood Fox has no reason not to notify him.

It's been almost half a month since they last called him; either Ryan Donovan is talking nonsense, or the matter is serious, and they plan to deal with it before informing him of the outcome.

Mountain Eagle no longer had the mind to continue suppressing Ryan Donovan's mindset. After pondering with a gloomy expression for a while, he nodded and said, "What do you want?"

Ryan Donovan didn't anticipate things would go this smoothly. After a slight ponder, he decisively said, "I can't stay at my previous company any longer; I want to start business in Mexico or Central America...

The personnel you've seen, those Cleaners, are all skilled people with Canadian special forces service experience.

But I need startup capital now..."

Mountain Eagle listened and frowned at the 'brave and audacious' Ryan Donovan, saying, "You're asking me to save your life, and now you want me to give you money?"

Ryan Donovan looked Mountain Eagle in the eye for half a second, then instinctively glanced away and shook his head, saying, "Of course not, how could I possibly ask you for money...

But Kerry Cantona is still in my hands, and I have carefully sorted through his information.

This guy is in a bad spot now, but a month ago, he was still a shareholder in several defense contractors, and he still holds plenty of stocks and real estate.

The total value of these things is over 20 million US Dollars, but they're useless to Kerry Cantona now...

If we cooperate slightly, we can make him obediently transfer all these things to us for handling."

Ryan Donovan said as he looked at the contemplative Mountain Eagle. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Sir, I don't know what you're thinking, but Kerry Cantona's situation is clear—he must give up all his assets and comply with demands to plead guilty and turn himself in to protect his own and his family's lives.

If you think this isn't very good or too troublesome, I can handle these matters on your behalf!"

Recalling the cunning Kerry Cantona, Mountain Eagle thought about how the guy was severely injured and yet set a trap for Razer's son and son-in-law...

Looking at the tense Ryan Donovan, who tried hard to maintain composure, Mountain Eagle said, "You want to get startup capital from Kerry Cantona?

How much do you want?"

Ryan Donovan seemed to sense an opportunity and cautiously raised a finger...

Mountain Eagle glanced at it, a bit impatient, and said, "With assets worth 20 million, in a quick deal, the most you could end up with wouldn't exceed 10 million. You dare ask me for 10 million, what are you thinking?"

Mountain Eagle's obvious irritation made Ryan Donovan very nervous. He took a small step back, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Sir, is it possible that I only want 1 million?

With just 1 million, I can settle down with the people in Mexico and start trying to take some jobs.

I have a few friends there who are involved in hostage rescue, which pays well, and there's also a high demand for 'Cleaners' there, but..."

Mountain Eagle paused, then patted his head, feeling a bit hot due to the Arctic Fox news...

It was unclear when 1 million had ceased to be significant money to him.

This misunderstanding made Mountain Eagle somewhat embarrassed...

Upon hearing Ryan Donovan end with 'but', Mountain Eagle waved his hand and said, "Explain clearly what you need all at once..."

Ryan Donovan, hearing this, cautiously said, "Sir, I heard you mention investments in El Salvador just now...

The situation there isn't particularly good. If you have any business needs there, can you consider me?

In your eyes, I may not be a qualified 'Cleaner', but I assure you, the capabilities of my people and me are not an issue; at least in a place like El Salvador, our skills can be fully utilized..."

Mountain Eagle wanted to tell Ryan Donovan that his head in El Salvador was a top-tier Assassin, along with several legendary old guns—they had no use for him...

But thinking about the message he just received and the long-uncontacted Blood Fox, Mountain Eagle slightly nodded and said, "I will ask a person named Matthias to contact you. As long as the price is reasonable, there will be suitable business for you there..."
