Chapter 277: The Power of the Mercenary Group
Immediately after Jaden had asked that question, other than the sound of a man who was trying to gasp for air, there was no response at all.
The man's eyes were already bulging, from the pressure that was being applied on his neck. Together with the fact that Jaden was currently holding his neck so tightly, it was obviously impossible for him to be able to say anything.
Jaden of course understood this, but he just wanted to give this man a lesson. He had to make the other party understand that if he did not do as he was asked, Jaden would definitely not hesitate to kill him.
Just as the guy was about to pass out from suffocation, Jaden finally softened the grip around his neck. With that, the guy was finally able to breathe. And taking that chance, he gasped for air as much as he could, as he was already suffocating.
Just as he was about to enjoy the feeling of breathing again, Jaden spoke, "You better hurry up, or I'm going to crush that neck of yours."
Upon hearing those words, the man finally came back to his senses. Jaden's hand was still around his throat, indicating that if Jaden really wanted to strangle him, he could do that again.
"We are from the Raven Mercenary group. We came out for a vacation, but we saw that there was a mission that was posted on the dark web. Considering that it was in the same location that we were planning to come and relax, we decided to take it, so that we could get a few bucks along the way." The man responded rapidly in a single breath.
But he had just wanted to continue saying something else when he suddenly felt the grip around his neck tightening. Immediately, he lost the ability to breathe. Additionally, he felt like his trachea was about to be crushed!
It was only a few seconds later that Jaden came back to his senses. He had almost forgotten about the fact that he was currently holding a human in his hand. It was a good thing that he was still controlling his strength, otherwise, if he had lost control of his strength, and somehow held the neck of this guy using his full strength, he would have already crushed the neck.
Jaden had lost control over his emotions a little bit there, due to the name Raven Mercenary Group. This was the same name that was mentioned by his mother in the video that she had left for him.
It was this group of mercenaries that was hunting his parents down, together with the organization that was trying to get their research. This name was something that Jaden had always been keeping in his mind, as he was planning on taking revenge in the future.
After Jaden finally managed to regain his composure, he looked at the man who had already dropped onto the ground, after Jaden released him. The man was currently gasping for air, as he felt relieved. He had felt that he was about to die, and was lucky enough that Jaden had let go before his brain was damaged from the lack of oxygen.
"I want to know everything about this mercenary group of yours." Jaden stated as he continued trying to control his emotions.

Currently, he was feeling rage within his heart. He felt like he wanted to chop this guy into pieces, just from the anger that he was having from this mercenary group getting involved with the death of his parents.
The mercenary did not know about the reason why Jaden was angry. Nonetheless, he immediately revealed everything that he knew about the Raven Mercenary group.
Raven Mercenary group was one of the top mercenary groups in the world. Yes, it was not only found within this nation, but instead, it was spread all over the world.
The dark web did not belong to any nation, and was shared by all the people involved in the underworld businesses all over the world. And this mercenary group was one of the formidable groups that could even threaten a country.
Since they could threaten a country, it was clear that it was not just made up of the small group that Jaden had killed. This was just a very tiny part of the entire group. And, they were actually the ones with the lowest ranks.
And the people of the same level as themselves within the Raven Mercenary group numbered in thousands. And above them, there was another elite members of the mercenary group.
These were the most elite force of the mercenary group, and they mainly handled the biggest missions that involved destroying a government and so on.
In most occasions, they would not attack any government. But, if they were hired, and a reasonable price was paid, they would take the mission. And, they would actually be able to take down a country after battling with it for a while.
In short, the elite members of the mercenary group was composed of those with incredible skills. They were almost at the same level as the special forces, and it was not impossible to find that even some of them are already gone beyond the level of the special forces.
And then, above this group, there was yet another group of members of the mercenary group. This was called the core members of the mercenary group. It was composed of 15 people, and they were even stronger than the elite members.
And finally, there was the controller. This was the real leader of the Raven mercenary group. The mercenary that Jaden was currently interrogating did not know much about the controller. All that he understood was that the controller was extremely powerful, being the most powerful being in the entire mercenary group.
As for who he was, or how he looked like, this mercenary had never seen him before. Other than the core members, no any other person within the mercenary group had ever seen the controller. They only received orders if there was a need to, from one of the core members.
As for the others, they rarely participated in any missions. They would only be called upon if there was a need for them to show up, after the elite members of the group had failed to complete the mission.
But there was no need for all of them to show up, considering that just one of them showing up was enough to complete the mission. This was enough to demonstrate just how strong the core members of the mercenary group were, not to mention the controller.
As Jaden got more information about this group, he finally realized just what kind of entity his parents had been going against. If this Raven mercenary group was this powerful from before, it was no wonder that his parents had lost.
But to Jaden, no matter how strong they were, no matter how many were there, he would still eliminate them. This was something that he had swore to do, and he would fulfill it.
As for how superhuman the controller and the other core members of the mercenary group were, Jaden did not care. Even if he was not powerful enough to be able to deal with them at this moment, that did not imply that it would be the case in the future.
In any case, as long as he managed to complete more missions, and got even more rewards from the system, he would definitely be able to take care of them. But of course, Jaden understood that if he tried dealing with them at this time, it was going to be impossible for him to do that.
Simply put, he was not powerful enough to be able to deal with them. He might be able to deal with the small group that had come over today, a group of five. But if a hundred of them came to hunt him down, just the weapons that they were carrying were able to threaten him.
And, this was considered as the low-level members. And if he ended up attracting the attention of the elite members, then, things would get more complicated. For now, Jaden was not willing to engage with them, at least for the time being.
"Is there anyone else that knows about you coming over?" Jaden asked as he looked at the man who was on the ground.
The man shook his head, only to nod again. He was not stupid. He understood that if Jaden was asking that question, it was clear that he was planning something, and it was not to his favor.
So, he had to make sure that Jaden believed that there was someone else that already knew that they were coming over. And, to try and make sure that Jaden believed it, the man spoke up.
"If you kill us all, they will come. Our Raven mercenary group never fails a mission. If we cannot deal with you now, 10 more will come next. If they cannot deal with you, 100 will come next. And if even they cannot deal with you, more and more will keep coming, until the elite members will be forced to intervene." The mercenary stated a little panicky.
What he was saying was the truth, but he had exaggerated a little. Still, it was clear that there was a great possibility that if Jaden ended up wiping all of them out, others would come to complete the mission that had been left hanging.
"You are talking as if I will let you go, you will forget about this. I believe that if I let you go, then they will come for me earlier than if I kill you." Jaden stated in cold tone.
The mercenary already knew that. So, he had all this while been waiting for a chance in order to be able to deal with Jaden. Even though the gun had been taken away from him, it was not the only weapon that he possessed. He immediately got up from the ground, and attacked.
Then, just as the mercenary was swinging the dagger that he had been hiding all this while, waiting for a chance, in order to deal with Jaden, Jaden suddenly stretched his hand.
Jaden grabbed the hand that was holding the knife, before turning it around, and directing it towards the heart. With that, the heart was directly pierced by the knife.
