Derek Wayne's revelation left Jiao Jia feeling extremely shocked...

He had long been disillusioned with organizations like the CIA, Mossad, and Military Intelligence Bureau, seeing them as entities that fund and foster terrorists, ultimately leading to backlash against the United States which doesn't even make the news.

But he never imagined that the rise of the infamous ISIS involved a group of Texas tycoons playing a role in it.

These people followed in the footsteps of the Bush family, expanding their territories in war-torn areas related to the United States.

To protect their business, they even went beyond the protection provided by the US Army, impulsively launching a terrorist proxy and using their connections to equip this 'proxy' with a powerful weapon, thus spawning an assassin organization with terrorist-like characteristics—'Replacer'!

Looking at Derek Wayne's annoyed expression, Mountain Eagle unbelievably said, "'Replacer's' appearance is related to you?

Of course!

The Middle East is full of angry youths, give them some money, send them a text, and they'd dare to hit the streets to loot and burn.

The Arab Spring had contributions from these furious youths, and once they realized they gained nothing and couldn't stay in their hometowns, 'Replacer' became a suitable destination.

I initially thought the leader of 'Replacer' was a Rohingya named Luo Han..."

Mountain Eagle rubbed his chin, curiously saying, "Death Angel doesn't need multiple identities, why did he choose the codename 'Luo Han'?"

Derek Wayne smiled bitterly, saying, "Death Angel was merely the initial manager of Replacer. When we found Replacer had huge profit potential, our England allies consulted us and sent a new manager...

Her name is Miranda Lohan!"

Mountain Eagle suddenly gasped, the image of the thief and double agent Miranda Lohan flashed in his mind...

"Miranda Lohan actually became the manager of 'Replacer'?"

He suddenly understood how Death Angel and Miranda Lohan knew each other...

No wonder Kobe couldn't unearth all of Miranda's information even with the Department of Homeland Security's resources, turns out so many powerful departments were shielding her.

This Miranda is truly formidable, far from being just a thief...

A woman from a Romani thief family, serving the British Military Intelligence, serving the French Intelligence Agency, and seemingly worked with the CIA too, trusted by multiple parties...

A multi-faced spy who could even become the manager of 'Replacer', that's remarkable!

He looked at Derek Wayne with mocking eyes, saying, "I bet you people have no idea how difficult it is to manage an organization like 'Replacer', everything fell out of control in the end, right?"

Derek Wayne nodded with a wry smile, saying, "Initially, it wasn't, because among our allies were the CIA and the Military Intelligence Bureau, they found 'Replacer' a very good pawn, so they were motivated to participate in the management.

Initially, we made a lot of money from 'Replacer,' but later it did go out of control, as Death Angel's departure led to Replacer losing vertical management capability.

Although Miranda developed markets in many countries, at that time we were focused on making money and didn't realize that once local development reached a certain level, they wouldn't be content to just be tools.

After Thailand Substitute Death collapsed, because we didn't provide any form of rescue, all local branches of Substitute Death chose to become independent.

Los Angeles Substitute Death was not completely wiped out, that Andrew Bonar is one of the masterminds behind Substitute Death.

Due to the pressure from 'Bangkok Group,' he had no choice but to move their main force to Texas.

Last week he came to see me, because Substitute Death's activities in Texas faced severe restrictions, he wanted to follow Death Angel's old path, using our power to help him restart his business.

In exchange, he brought the news of Death Angel!"

Mountain Eagle listened and nodded thoughtfully, he then recalled the one billion Thai Baht from when he killed Substitute Death's leader, Carlos, in Thailand...

Initially he thought that money was Carlos's 'protection fee,' but now realizes it was likely a 'franchise management fee.'

Considering the timeline, Los Angeles Substitute Death likely just declared independence, only to run into him, and during the chaos, he knocked out the core members of Los Angeles Substitute Death.

The guy named Andrew Bonar moved Substitute Death to Texas, then hit trouble, finally remembering the 'former boss,' and came with Death Angel's news seeking help.

Mountain Eagle remarked on the coincidence of things, watching Derek Wayne as he tried hard to get himself drunk, he shook his head and said, "Don't down yourself in alcohol, you haven't clarified everything yet..."

Derek Wayne shook his head bitterly and said, "Don't worry, I won't get drunk, I just don't want to die too painfully..."

Mountain Eagle took the glass out of his hand and said, "I need you to make calls to gather the people on the list at one location, and that Andrew Bonar, he definitely didn't tell you Death Angel's location..."

Derek Wayne leaned back in his chair and sighed dejectedly, saying, "That guy is very cunning, he knows our plight, thus he demands a very high price.

So when someone of ours sent people to find you, I pretended I hadn't seen it!"

Speaking, Derek Wayne searched himself, spread his hands and said, "My phone has Andrew Bonar's number, I can call and arrange a meeting.

I can call and invite my allies to join this meeting...

Considering how cooperative we've been, could you remove my name from the list you'll ultimately expose.

I've done a lot of bad things in my life, I'm doomed, but my kids are innocent, they shouldn't be surrounded by evil glares."

Mountain Eagle listened, frowned, pondered for a moment, then slightly nodded and said, "We have a deal!

You can live another day, I want to see this meeting happen tomorrow night!"

Hearing he can live another day, Derek Wayne nodded with a bitter smile and said, "No problem, let me drink two more glasses, I'm in a lousy state now, also it's too late...

I'll start calling tomorrow morning, they haven't realized the seriousness of the situation, they'll come to the 'gathering'!"

Saying this, Derek Wayne lay on the dining table, looking at Mountain Eagle, lost in thought and said, "Death Angel, Death Angel...

We never imagined an inconspicuous soldier would push us to this extent!

And you, Mountain Eagle...

Actually, we're not enemies, we just chose the wrong way!

It's a bit late to apologize now, but, sorry...

I hope you keep your promise!"
