Chapter 178 Purchasing Equipment

After Osborne spoke, Valentin was taken aback.
Although he was initially worried, sering Osborne’s calm demeanor and sensing his confidence, Valentin also calmed down
From Osbome, he felt the power of self–assurance.
“Mr. Augustine, tell me what to do, and I’ll do it.
“However, the mass departure of temporary bodyguards will significantly reduce our strength. And Chevalier Security’s power has already far surpassed ours.”
Osborne shrugged indifferently. “A significant reduction in strength? I don’t think so. Valentin, are the hundred or so people who remain absolutely reliable?”
Valentin nodded
“Of course, Including me, there are one hundred and twenty people left, one hundred and ten ordinary members and ten come managers, all from the Godfather’s training camp. No one knows their identities, but they are all loyal to the Godfather, to the Draco Group, and to you. They are the core backbone of Skyefall Security.”
Osborne’s eyes lit up as he asked again, “And how about their equipment?”
“Equipment?” Valentin paused, then replied. “According to company regulations, ordinary members are equipped with Class D single soldier gear from the Draco Group, while the ten senior managers,
including myself, are equipped with Class Csingle soldier gear.”
Osborne thought quickly.
After a moment, he said, “How much money is in the company’s account?”
Valentin answered, “About 300 million dollars. At the end of each year, our profits are submitted to the beadquarters. It’s March now, so there’s only 300 million dollars. However, after installing this Class A defense system and once the Radcliffe family approves, we’ll receive five hundred million, bringing the total to Boo million dollars in cash.”
Osborne murmured, “Eight hundred million dollars? Not enough. Far from it. Valentin, I plan to upgrade the equipment for all one hundred and twenty current members. Ordinary members to Class C single–soldier gear, and senior managers to Class B single–soldier gear. In this case, will our strength decrease compared to before?”
Valentin was stunned, incredulously saying, “Are you sure you want to do that? That would mean buying one hundred sets of Class C gear and ten sets of Class B gear. That’s a huge amount of money! We don’t even have the purchasing authority for that. But if we do this, our strength won’t just stay the same. It will greatly increase. The combat power will definitely be much stronger than the previous one thousand plus.”
Osborne nodded in satisfaction, smiling, “Don’t worry about the money, and as for the purchasing authority, I happen to have it.”
Osborne shook the Draco Star Wristlet on his wrist.
His Draco Star Wristlet had already lit up three stars, representing his three–star authority, which allowed him to purchase Class B single–soldier gear from the Draco Group and even some Class A gear.
Moreover, he could enjoy a 20% discount.
In the Draco Star Wristlet’s marketplace, a set of Class C single soldier systems, including weapons and armor, cost about ten million dollars internally.
So, one hundred sets would be a billion dollars.
A Class B single soldier gear set would cost about 100 million dollars.
The most expensive was the Class I defensive soft armor, priced at fifty million dollars.
If ten sets were bought, that would be another billion dollars.
To fully equip the one hundred and twenty members of Skyefall Security would cost at least two billion dollars.

Even with a 20% discount, it would still be 1.6 billion dollars.

Relying solely on Skyefall Security’s profits, it was unaffordable. Fortunately, Osborne’s account still had more than three billion dollars.
Osborne gritted his teeth and started placing orders.
After purchasing one hundred sets of Class C single soldier gear and ten sets of Class B single- soldier gear, half of the money in Osborne’s account immediately vanished.
Osborne felt a pang of heartache.
One billion and six hundred million dollars, equivalent to the entire assets of an ordinary large family, was spent in an instant.
“Indeed, arms dealers make money. When will the Godfather reward me with an arms company? Then I’ll really be rich,” Osborne thought, quickly adjusting his mindset.
Although he spent 1.6 billion dollars, he felt it was worth it because he knew very well how powerful the Draco Group’s Class C and Class B single–soldier gear was.
The upgraded equipment of Skyefall Security members would undoubtedly increase their strength several times over.
After placing the order, Osborne sneered, “Apollo, since you want to play, I’ll play along with you. If you think you can bully me by poaching my employees, then come and try.” This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Next, Osborne and Valentin discussed the development plan for Skyefall Security, deciding not to recruit temporary bodyguards anymore and instead focus on the high–end route with the one hundred and twenty core members after upgrading their equipment.
That meant that Skyefall Security would only accept high–priced contracts in the future.
Osborne knew this path wouldn’t be easy.
Skyefall Security must make a loud enough name for itself, showing the high–end clients their true strength. Otherwise, they wouldn’t spend several times, even ten times the high price, to hire Skyefall Security’s bodyguards.
And Apollo’s acquired Chevalier Security was the perfect opponent for Osborne to make a name.
“Apollo, I’m looking forward to a fight with you.”

Chapter 179 System Testing
A day later, the defense systein was finally installed.
Once the Radcliffe family approved the installation, the transaction would be complete.
The equipment that Osborne had purchased had also been delivered. Under Valentin’s arrangement, the members of Skyefall Security were fully re–equipped.
Skyefall Security’s strength greatly increased
“Ms. Donna Radcliffe, the defense system has been installed and debugged. You can arrange for someone to test it.
“This defense system incorporates a lot of high tech from the Draco Group. It doesn’t need any human operation to withstand attacks from Class B powerhouses. If operated by professionals, just two squads on rotation, each with four members, can withstand attacks from Class B+ powerhouses for a long time.
“In short, it can withstand anything below Class A.”
Valentin confidently introduced it to Donna.
Donna’s eyes lit up. “Is it really that powerful? Even without human operation, can it withstand Class B powerhouses? With operators, it can even withstand a group of Class B+ powerhouses?”
Valentin smiled, “You can find someone to test it. I believe you trust Skyefall Security’s reputation.”
Donna nodded, then felt a bit helpless
“I can’t even find a Class B powerhouse to test it, let alone a Class B+ one.”
Donna herself was only at the Class C+ level.
She thought for a moment, then looked at Osborne. “Osborne, how about we test it together? Even if we’re not quite at the Class B level, we should be close enough to test the system’s capabilities.”
Osborne nodded with a smile
Just then, a warning message came through his earpiece.
Osborne told Donna, “Ms. Donna Radcliffe, Apollo is here. He’s brought many men with him, and there might be a fierce battle.”
Donna frowned, worriedly looking at Valentin “Mr. Gibson, maybe we should postpone the testing. Why don’t you take a break first?”
Donna didn’t want Valentin to meet Apollo.
She already knew about the Chemlier family’s acquisition of Horizon Security, renaming it Chevalier Security, and their subsequent heavy squeeze on Skyfall Security, poaching their bodyguards,
She didn’t want to get involved in the business rivalry between Apollo and Valentin, fearing that if they met, they might fight again.
Valentin didn’t answer but looked at Osborne instead.
Osborne subtly shook his head, and Valentin then said with a smile, “No need. Apollo wants to squeeze Skyefall Security, and I haven’t countered yet. If I avoid him now, people will think I’m afraid of him.
“Apollo’s strength is at the Class B level. Let him lost this defense system for us.”
Donna was shocked, “What? Apollo’s strength is Class B?”
Donna’s
“s expression turned serious, but thinking that Apollo could test the defense system, her eyes lit up again.
“Mr. Gibson, has the system been activated?”
Valentia smiled calmly, “Not yet. But as soon as you order, the system can be activated immediately. Anyone not on the whitelist who enters
