Chen An began to quietly wait for the arrival of the assassins.

Shortly after, there was a knock on the door. He quickly got up and opened it, and there were three tall white men, each about 1.9 meters tall, wearing vests and light green military trousers.

"Master." ×3

Chen An said, "Just call me Mr. Chen. 'Master' sounds strange."

He is straight, and if people outside heard that, it would probably arouse suspicion.

"Yes, Mr. Chen!"

At this moment, Chen An also began to check the information of the three people.

[Name: Please name it]

[Physical Constitution]: 10 (normal is 5)

[Entry]: Strong and healthy

[Number of embeddable terms: 1]

.......

All three had the same information.

"System, what does 'can be inlaid with entry 1' mean?"

[This assassin can only have one attribute equipped at most, and it can be freely removed and replaced.]

Upon hearing this, Chen An frowned. He had thought he could add an unlimited number of entries, but he hadn't expected there to be a limit.

"Is there a way to add more?"

[The host has the option to upgrade the assassin system for $10. Each upgrade allows your assassins to have two stats, and so on.]

Seeing this, he understood that all the functions of this system revolved around money, but with assassins, the ways to make money were quite varied.

Moreover, he was in the United States, which is known as the freest country. It was like a fish in the ocean. In China, there would probably be some restrictions, but here he could be completely unrestrained.

We have several goals right now. One is to find clues about my sister's disappearance, either alive or dead.

The thought of this brought tears to Chen An's eyes. If something really happened to Chen Wan, he would truly be all alone.

Secondly, having legal status in the United States and earning money are both necessary conditions.

He was now penniless, having no savings to pay for his sister's tuition and living expenses. At this moment, he was no different from a homeless person on the street.

Chen An looked at the three of them and said, "You three will be called An Dong, An Xing, and An Wen."

"Yes, Mr. Chen."

"Let's go out and see if there are any ways to make money, and while we're at it, let's investigate Shen Ling."

Shen Ling is his sister's classmate in the United States. They are both from China and have met a few times, but he has been unable to contact her for the past few days.

This was very suspicious, making him feel that his sister's disappearance was inextricably linked to her.

The four walked on the streets of Los Angeles. Night had fallen, but there were very few pedestrians on the street.

He lived in a slum, an area teeming with homeless people. Everywhere you looked, you could see tents set up in twos and threes, and a few homeless people rummaging through the garbage.

Several of them even had irregularly bent bodies, like zombies in a movie; he knew these people had taken too many drugs.

"We need to find a way to make money. Even suicide soldiers need to eat, and with him, that makes four mouths to feed."

After thinking about it, I realized that I didn't know anyone and had no connections, so it seemed like collecting recyclables was the only option left.

Low risk, the more people involved, the more you earn, and it's legal—the best way to make money for now. Don't underestimate waste recycling; it's a very lucrative industry even in China, with some people earning millions a year!

"I'll just collect recyclables for now, and we'll see how things go when I get better."

Fortunately, the assassins were strong and physically capable, and even if they scavenged for scraps all day, they could earn a considerable sum of money.

After making up his mind, Chen An opened a map of Los Angeles and headed towards a slightly better area.

There are hardly any houses around here, and only a few scrap yards. If you want to find scrap, you should go to places with more people, where the scrap should be more valuable.

Half an hour later.

Chen An led three assassins to an area filled with small buildings, where the pedestrians were dressed quite respectably.

"You all split up and prioritize collecting electrical wires, copper pipes, and broken appliances. I will contact you if anything comes up."

Fortunately, he can communicate with the assassins remotely, which is a very powerful function and can be extremely useful if used properly!

The three nodded and walked around, each carrying a large yellow bag. Chen An naturally joined in as well.

What's a little hardship in the early stages?

Sure enough, there were plenty of good stuff in this area, including several valuable aluminum cans. Chen An, wearing a mask and holding a tattered umbrella, rummaged through the trash can.

He also learned about the situation from the other three, who all had a good experience.

Just then, two homeless men slowly approached from a distance. Their cheeks were sunken, their hair covered half their faces, and they carried sticks and other weapons, pushing a small cart. They were clearly up to no good.

"Asian, you don't deserve to be here! Put your things down and get out!"

"Get out! ldiot (Get out of here, you idiot!)"

Upon seeing this, Chen An quickly contacted An Dong and the other two, asking them to come over. Although he could also secretly embed the [Strong Body] attribute, it would be better to play it safe.

The two men watched Chen An retreat little by little, their faces filled with disdain.

"Next time, look carefully. This is our Beacon Fire Camp's territory!"

One person even spat at Chen An's feet.

"Wait! Hand over half of what's in the bag, or I won't hesitate to beat you to the ground!"

One of them eyed the bag in Chen An's hand greedily, weighed the wooden stick in his hand for a moment, and then stepped forward.

Seeing this, Chen An's face turned ugly. He took out the English Proficiency vocabulary entry, put on the Body Strengthening skill, and instantly felt a turbulent current pass through him, greatly improving his strength, speed, and other aspects.

He put down the bag and pretended to give in.

The two men were even more disdainful upon seeing this, thinking that Asians were easy to bully and cowardly.

Just as the man reached for the bag, Chen An suddenly unleashed his arm strength and punched the man in the cheek.

The immense force slammed him to the ground, causing him to let out a scream!

Chen An could also feel a slight pain in his fist, and then quickly retreated. The other person also reacted at this time.

He didn't expect the Asian man in front of him to suddenly attack, his face showing ferocity.

"Fuck! You're asking for it!"

As he spoke, he brandished his weapon and attacked Chen An!

But Chen An laughed at that moment, and then three burly men, each 1.9 meters tall, quickly ran over and surrounded the two of them.

The sheer force of that aura instantly made the two of them tremble.

The three burly men in front of them were too much for them to handle, even if they were just one of them. They couldn't understand why this Asian kid could command three white men to do his bidding!

"Are you guys very arrogant?"

Chen An walked over slowly, looking at the two with amusement. If they hadn't been prepared today, they probably would have been beaten up, and their lives might even have been in danger.

This also gave him a firsthand understanding of the darkness within America.

"We're sorry, we were wrong!"

"This place is yours now, let's leave immediately."

Chen An said, "You can leave, but leave your things behind."

"Anton, take everything off them, and take that cart too."
