In a dark conference room, intense discussions were taking place as various projected faces debated fiercely.
"Our partners in the Far East are expressing considerable anger over the death of his heir. It is a disgrace that we failed to protect him in the realm of Europe. That is our shame." One voice, though feeling the weight of disgrace, spoke in a calm tone.
"It was his own decision not to require us to send additional personnel. With the defenses of the Kingdom of Denmark and that super bodyguard by his side, who would have thought someone could kill him under such circumstances? After the annihilation of the Dark Organization's Elite, our available Elite forces have become quite tense," another voice chimed in, sounding somewhat unconcerned.
This emergency meeting was merely addressing a side issue; no matter what conclusions were reached, it could not change the fact that the partner's heir was already dead. Perhaps there was still time to find a suitable successor among his other offspring.
However, there was an urgent problem at hand!
"Just a moment ago, the South America Division was ambushed by a group of 'unknown' militants. Their sole target was to inflict casualties on our living forces, resulting in a death rate exceeding fifty percent for the entire division! This marks the second major division to suffer such destructive blows recently! As for the next tier of branches, seven have been temporarily incapacitated! The enemy understands our system exceptionally well!" After wrapping up the initial topic, this heavy subject was introduced by a raspy aged voice.
He emphasized the word 'unknown' with particular intensity.
"Utter nonsense about being unknown! Aside from Hive Security Company, no other force could achieve this! They are completely disregarding the rules! The South America Division has suffered such significant damage; it’s utterly outrageous!" Following this lead, those present—long accustomed to high-ranking positions—expressed their anger over a series of recent events.
It had been a long time since anyone dared to provoke the organization so openly. Even major powers had adopted a conciliatory stance towards it, fearing they might fall into opposition.
Yet now, facing the seemingly insignificant Hive Security Company, everyone present, while furious, felt an unspoken frustration.
For national-level entities, despite their vast resources and formidable overall strength, they had much to protect; larger nations tended to be more cautious.
But Hive Security Company—while it had earned its place as the seventh largest Blackwater Security Company globally—had an exceptionally streamlined structure. It was difficult to deliver a heavy blow against them. Otherwise, they would not have ignored them during their first encounter.
Yet here they were, pushing their luck!
True, it was their side that initially cast blame upon them, but the complete annihilation of the Dark Organization's upper echelons was a significant loss! That confrontation had been a private operation by Dark Organization; they had already prepared to swallow their pride after that encounter and accepted their losses.
This time, they merely wanted to divert some attention. How could they be so reckless and disregard all norms? Normally, both sides would engage in mutual verbal sparring through public opinion. However,
If they truly wanted to go all out and crush Hive Security Company, it wasn't impossible. They could even leverage some representatives from the British Empire and America to label them as a Terrorist Organization and strike back with external force.
The price to pay truly seems not worth it. Now, with just a slight dent in their reputation, the impact on public perception is minimal, and the effect on income will certainly not be severe.
However, the other side has already stripped down and begun to fight back recklessly, showing a complete disregard for the consequences. Their willingness to go all out seems to ignore the potential disaster that could befall them if their opponents unleashed their full power.
While they outwardly appear to be concerned and feigning ignorance about the situation, those who understand the truth are well aware of what is really happening.
As for the city where this incident occurred, it turns a blind eye to this "dog-eat-dog" phenomenon, following procedures as usual. In places like Mexico, gunfights and silencing witnesses are all too common.
The emergency meeting is convened to decide whether to go all out and eliminate the company that has caused significant losses to the organization.
After all, making such a decision would undoubtedly lead to substantial losses for many present, which is not something one person can decide alone.
Initially, everyone spoke with fiery anger, but once the discussion turned practical, many seemed less invested. What started as a mere verbal spat escalated into an all-out confrontation, especially since the opposing side had several strong allies. This seemed rather childish.
After everyone expressed their opinions, it became apparent that much of the initial outrage was merely a facade. A significant portion believed they should first send someone to negotiate with the other side and halt their actions.
"Negotiation? Of course we should negotiate. If we completely sever ties with them now, while we could inflict serious damage on them, our own foundation would undoubtedly suffer catastrophic losses—this is beyond doubt." Yang Xiaoyou harbored deep grievances and hatred towards the organization from both past and present.
At the same time, he had an exceptionally profound understanding of the organization.
Now, even though Hive Security Company has grown robust, compared to the organization, they can only resort to extreme measures and unconventional tactics for success.
If they provoke the other side into recklessly concentrating resources without regard for losses, it would be impossible to shake them directly.
The reason he chose to act like a reckless fighter was that he understood some of the organization's principles very well. He knew that within certain limits of loss, they would not easily resort to methods that could harm their foundation.
Hive Security Company's hunting teams may have eliminated many experienced personnel from the other side, but they did not cause significant damage to the organization's legitimate business assets.
They had just crossed their red line but had not gone too far!
This was akin to teasing them at their breaking point, leaving them in a state of discomfort where they couldn't move forward or retreat.
As for the content of negotiations? Naturally, they would demand compensation for mental anguish and damages to their reputation!
I don't know the people from your division who ambushed us. Don't blame us if you can't find evidence; it's none of our business. However, if you don't compensate us, there might be some 'idle fellows' who dislike you and decide to gather at a few other divisions.
Having dealt with the organization for so many years, Yang Xiaoyou knows how to push their limits to the extreme. When this kind of situation arises at the negotiation table, the outcome for the passive party is naturally tragic.
However, it has now been officially stated that Hive Security Company has taken a stand against the organization. In the future, they will also have to deal with any traps thrown their way. Such a bold move is a last resort and should not be used too frequently.
Otherwise, it would truly be counterproductive.
After recovering from his injuries for a while, taking advantage of the circumstances surrounding the prince's death and the recent reluctance to trouble citizens of the Chinese Empire, Yang Xiaoyou decided to flee the country with the Demoness, leaving the one who had been crowned as 'Fortland' behind in Denmark.
As for whether he can transform from counterfeit to genuine, that depends on his own opportunities. If he can establish himself firmly after Hive Security Company frees up resources in other areas, then perhaps he can also carve out a place for himself in Denmark.
Faced with pressure from the organization, it is now essential to enhance one's influence by any means necessary.
