There had been no signs of Adam on any of the information networks that all of their organisations owned or had access to, and yet he seemed to have accomplished and experienced so much.
Little did they know, Adam had experienced many great wars and battles in the Physical Dungeons that were formed in the Mortal Intersection, along with innumerable battles against all kinds of souls in the Soul Dungeon.
He was planning to leave to them the secret base that his master had created after working hard on it for many decades and was hoping that with all the facilities, they could greatly strengthen themselves.
It was extremely large and durable, protected by not only Illusion Arrays, but the base itself was protected by Barrier Arrays and within it, there were many energy gathering arrays, making it the perfect environment for cultivation.
"The base was left behind by my master and is very secure. I have complete control over it and I will only allow you guys to enter it and use most of its facilities, however, it cannot be revealed to others. It will be where all over our secrets are held and I want you guys to buy all the land around it and begin building bases for our faction. It will become our secret centre of operations in the mountains that only the leaders can access and train in and Elizabeth should know where it is" said Adam.
After saying that, they all turned to Elizabeth, curious as to where it was and also wanting to know why and how she knew about it, however when she thought about it, she became embarrassed.
She didn't want to tell them that she knew about it because she placed a tracker on Adam's motorcycle and also didn't want to reveal that she had already checked it out and was unable to find anything out of the ordinary.
"Leave the past in the past Elizabeth, just make sure to purchase as much land as you can around that area in all of your names, as you are the leaders of the faction and can't betray it anyway. It doesn't matter the price, just purchase it and if you have to, get in contact with the head of the NYPD and get him to pull some strings for you. Just tell him that he is doing it for me. Although we can stay in that area and take it by force, it is best to go through the official procedures and I think it is an area owned by the government, so with the head of the NYPD's help, purchasing it should be easy" instructed Adam.
She nodded her head and was planning to follow Adam's instructions to the best of her ability, not wanting to let him down.
"All assets that are unneeded and are not producing money can be sold and I want members of the Sentinels Faction to be spread around New York in different bases, but the area around our Secret Base should be the centre of our might. Gather up resources, manpower and knowledge and begin taking the things that are extremely valuable to the secret base once I grant you access to it"
"I am sure you guys know the rest and are much better at leading and managing a large faction, so I will leave it to you guys," said Adam.
After finishing what he was saying, it was clear that his intention was to leave and that he had something that he wanted to do.
"Don't tell us you are going to disappear for another year?"
"Adam, you said you were going to train us"
"Yeah, and I also want to check out this secret base and we need access to it to be able to carry out your orders"
They were all curious as to why Adam was leaving and where he was going, and also didn't want him to, as they needed his training and support and also liked having his presence around them, which made them feel safer.
"Don't worry, just go back to the city and start forming blood contracts with your subordinates and also pass on the method of the blood contracts with your most trusted subordinates. After that, you can grant leadership positions and will have to form fewer blood contracts, as your subordinates will do it for you. There is also the integration of the organisations into the faction, which will take a while"
"Along with that, there are still the members of the Lin, Dale and Ford Family all over New York who either need to be eliminated, arrested or subdued by the faction. You can get most of the Dale and Ford Family members to join the faction, but many of the Lin Family Members are unrestrainable, so will need to be taken down. You should also contact the NYPD Head about this and let him know not to intervene in our business and that any bodies or crimes committed will be sorted out by our faction and we will clean everything up and provide money for any damages"
"It is his jurisdiction and he knows not to intervene with my business or get in my way, especially after our agreement. I am sure you realised that the NYPD has steered clear from anything to do with our faction"
Thinking about it, what Adam said was right and they hadn't got into any problems or altercations with the police and any investigations that took place were from higher-ups.
"If there are any issues, I will be able to sense trouble through our Soul Contract and will come and help, but for the next few days, you guys have a lot of things to do, and I also have something important to do" stated Adam.
They all wondered what else could Adam possibly want to do that was so important and seeing the smile on his face, it seemed to be something big.
