As soon as dawn broke, the entire Las Vegas quickly erupted in chaos.
Just last night, two casino tycoons who were influential enough to command the wind and clouds in Las Vegas and possessed a net worth of at least several billion us dollars...
...were assassinated and died at their respective residences one after another.
The assassins who raided the homes of the two casino tycoons not only used sniper rifles, military crossbows, and machine guns, but even used a significant amount of explosives.
For a while, the business, political, and police circles of Las Vegas were all on edge due to these two brutal assassination operations.
The police were troubled about how to arrest those assassins, who were clearly either professional killers or terrorist thugs.
Politicians were worried that this would affect the stability of Las Vegas, leading to a sharp decrease in tourists and tax revenue.
Wealthy businessmen were also in a state of self-preservation, fearing that they too would be targeted.
Especially the casino owners here in Las Vegas!
As the world's largest and most famous Las Vegas, most of the business in Las Vegas revolves around casinos and tourism.
Therefore, the one thing it doesn't lack is casino owners.
The rich value their lives most; soon, some casino owners who had heard the news...
...took their families and boarded private planes in the morning to temporarily fly to other cities or even countries for vacation.
Even those who didn't leave increased their security forces one after another.
For fear of becoming the third unlucky person to be targeted by thugs after those two unfortunate casino tycoons.
Still inside that renovated warehouse, Master Thief Danny Ocean had a gloomy face.
His old friend, Rusty Ryan, a professional gambler and con artist who specialized in cheating, also had no heart to eat the snacks in his pocket.
Inside the warehouse, about ten people were gathered at this time.
A middle-aged man with an ashen face had hands that were trembling as he held a cigar.
"...You don't know how brutal the group that raided The Russian and Banks' homes last night was."
"They used machine guns, sniper rifles, military crossbows, and even grenades and C4 explosives."
"The Russian was killed directly by a grenade, and five servants and more than thirty bodyguards in his home were killed along with him."
"Banks wasn't much better. I heard that those protecting his desert manor were all retired special forces and mercenaries, but more than a dozen people still died..."
"My friend at the police station said they might be professional assassins, and the team only consisted of two or three people."
"To this, I'm more inclined to believe it was the work of a group of armed bandits."
"I heard the safe on The Russian's side was stolen, and it might have contained bearer bonds and other assets worth over several hundred million us dollars."
"On Banks' side, it's said that jewelry worth no less than several hundred million us dollars was also lost."
The middle-aged man's name was Reuben Tishkoff, who was also a washed-up casino tycoon in Las Vegas.
The Bellagio Casino used to be his property.
Unfortunately, Reuben himself was also fond of gambling, and a few years ago, he was set up by his peer Terry Benedict, who tricked him into losing several hundred million us dollars.
He had to sell the Bellagio Casino to Terry Benedict at a low price.
Because of this, Reuben had held a grudge against Terry Benedict ever since.
So, when Master Thief Danny Ocean contacted him, wanting to ask him to provide financial support for them to steal 150 million us dollars in cash from Terry Benedict's casino...
Reuben only considered it for a moment before agreeing.
Thus, led by Master Thief Danny Ocean...
He contacted a dozen experts proficient in various skills and, including Reuben Tishkoff, made a total of eleven people.
They trained day and night in this renovated warehouse, preparing to break into the underground vault of casino tycoon Terry Benedict's casino during an upcoming major holiday.
They planned to pack up and steal the nearly 150 million us dollars in cash stored there.
Little did they expect that while they were in the heat of training and adapting to the traps in the underground vault...
...sudden bad news arrived: two casino tycoons in Las Vegas with net worths of tens of billions of us dollars, whose strength was only greater than Terry Benedict's, were forcibly intruded upon and killed by thugs last night.
Once these two heinous murder cases came out, everyone, including Master Thief Danny Ocean, knew...
...that next, their target Terry Benedict would certainly be even more cautious and prudent.
Perhaps even the already tight security at the casino would be strengthened again.
It would likely be even harder to steal 150 million us dollars in cash from him.
For a moment, the entire warehouse fell into silence... Relying on his terrifying recovery speed brought by physical fitness nearly five times that of an average adult male...
Hunter's wounds recovered much faster than he had imagined.
By noon the next day, he could hardly feel any pain or discomfort from the wounds.
Out of curiosity, he unwrapped the bandages on his body.
As a result, Hunter saw that most of the wounds on his body had already formed a layer of soft scabs.
Looking at the current recovery speed, he felt he would be back to normal in two or three days at most.
"Not bad!"
Hunter glanced at Perkins, who was temporarily unable to leave the Safe House due to her injuries.
After thinking about it, he said to her, "Perkins, I'm going out for a walk and to check on the situation."
"If you want to go out, don't go too far; just walk around nearby."
"If you're worried about your wounds, I'll take you to the Continental Hotel first."
There was also a Continental Hotel in Las Vegas, but Hunter had never been there.
Perkins knew the place; she looked at the wounds on her body.
After thinking about it, she was ultimately reluctant to pay another continental gold coin, so she shook her head and said, "The wounds are fine; I'll stay here for now."
"If you have other things to do, go ahead and get busy."
This woman wasn't stupid; she clearly didn't believe Hunter's explanation about his injuries from this morning.
After all, she had almost died during her mission last night because of carelessness.
When Hunter rescued her, he had carried her out, and then brought Perkins to this Safe House.
At that time, Perkins was shocked by the strength and endurance shown by this handsome Asian Youth, and she had even felt him a few times.
She was absolutely certain that Hunter had no wounds on his body at that time.
So his injuries were not from her mission last night at all.
It was only possible that he had gone out again to do something while she was asleep.
Hunter didn't know that Perkins had already guessed a lot.
But even if he knew, he wouldn't care much.
Although this woman was very greedy for money and somewhat selfish, she wasn't a stupid woman.
After all, Hunter had communicated deeply with her, and their relationship was not ordinary.
Moreover, he could help Perkins complete some high-difficulty commissioned tasks.
With these relationships in place, Hunter wasn't worried that she would have other ideas.
"Alright then!"
"In the refrigerator, I've prepared food and drinking water for you."
"If there's nothing else, get some more rest; it's good for recovering from your injuries."
"Okay!"
With a brief exchange with Perkins, Hunter left the Safe House.
He didn't go to the Bellagio Casino again but went elsewhere.
Changing into a set of expensive clothes, Hunter dressed himself more like a wealthy family's extravagant young master.
He randomly chose a decent-looking casino and exchanged ten thousand us dollars in chips.
Hunter then entered the casino again, found a card game, and started playing.
He tried his best to control himself so that he wouldn't just win without losing.
Moreover, Hunter wouldn't stay in each casino for too long; he would often play for an hour or two, earn tens of thousands or over a hundred thousand us dollars, and then leave.
Just like that, he actually stayed in various casinos in Las Vegas for three or four days.
With hundreds of card games every day, Hunter's Card Skill finally reached max level...
