Nick Fury had no need to worry that Salomon would step forward, publicly reveal his identity as the Messiah, and use religious influence to win the support of the Jewish Plutocrats. Many missions carried out by the City of Immortals' Intelligence Department had not been flawless. After uncovering a few clues, the former S.H.I.E.L.D. director had naturally deduced Salomon's true purpose. This left Nick Fury cursing himself for being fooled while using his own hidden methods to clean up after the City of Immortals' Intelligence Department and erase the intelligence trail. "He threatened me, saying that if I didn't yield, he'd reveal his identity as the Messiah and go to Jerusalem to use magic as miracles!" Nick Fury slapped the table angrily. Even after reddening his palm, he could not vent his fury. "I was actually fooled by such a crude trick! What did that little bastard say? Did you get his answer?"

"You're not worried he'll go back on his word?"

"Although Salomon's methods are ruthless, I trust his promises. Who else can I trust? I trust Salomon because he and I are the same kind of person, and his methods are even more sophisticated. He doesn't stand in the open. He has already infiltrated those people. Countless foundations and international organizations bear his influence. He has even joined certain secret societies. Not even I can figure out how he established connections with those consortium families or why his power has expanded so rapidly." Nick Fury sighed. "I never underestimate Salomon's determination or cruelty. Those people surely never imagined that someone would betray his own class and wealth. We've gone off topic. What I need to care about now is what's right in front of me. Though I only have one eye left, I see more clearly than ever.
