Chapter 422: Black Agency Chief's Order (4000)
"Candle Soul?"
Solomon called softly, but no one responded. The originally expected scene of Zhu Hun walking out of the shadows in a black robe did not appear. There was only the faint sound of summer insects outside the house.
"No one?"
He closed the door with his backhand, as if asking or mumbling something to himself. Still no one responded, and the room was filled with the silence of the night.
Solomon searched the entire hut, but there was still no one there.
"It shouldn't be. We agreed to come tonight to get the mission information..."
He frowned slightly, although he had a bad feeling, but he was still trying to comfort himself. Maybe Zhu Hun has other important things to do tonight, so he left temporarily. He will probably be back at this time tomorrow.
Solomon had no choice but to leave, feeling a little disappointed.
After all, if the specific location information of the mission target can be obtained tonight, it will be as early as early morning or as late as tomorrow night. The first round of the quest for the Shadow Hunter seat has been successfully completed. Since the two mission targets were kidnapped by Ka Xiu midway and killed on the spot, the missions failed. A shadow has been left in Solomon's heart. After one day of not catching the mission target, he feels that the possibility of the mission target being accidentally killed is getting more and more likely. He didn't want to be eliminated after failing three missions.
That would not only be a failure, but also a laughing stock.
Taking a deep breath, Solomon left the hut and merged directly into the darkness of the alley. He looked back and planned to come back tomorrow. Presumably at that time, Zhu Hun was already sitting at the desk waiting.
In the dead of night, the sky tonight is like a black curtain, with stars inlaid on it. On the contrary, the moonlight was a little dim, and there happened to be a dark cloud quietly blocking the moon. As a result, the stars complement each other and dominate.
The cool evening breeze blew through a remote corner of the city, causing the overgrown weeds on the dirt to bend slightly. The wind also smelled of blood.
Very light, but persistent.
It seemed to be coming from the abandoned warehouse not far away.
The rectangular warehouse was covered in dark shadows and stained with blood.
Ka Xiu is a good interrogator. In other words, Nandou Red Eagle Fist practitioners are all good interrogators. Death Ya Jin gently scratched the skin and muscles, and instantly the skin was torn apart and turned into white bones. It's as if densely packed teeth are climbing and biting, eating up the human flesh until it is completely wiped clean.
The flesh and blood on Zhu Hun's arms had suddenly disappeared, leaving only the white bones that formed a simple palm frame.
But he is still a tough guy, and has always been tight-lipped, not revealing the relevant content that Cardiff wanted to know. On the contrary, the white-haired man next to him who was trained by the council only lost half of his right hand and started to scream before he reached one o'clock. Spineless people answer all questions.
All the hidden information of the parliament that he came into contact with in one fell swoop was wiped out. It even includes some of the cooperation between some high-ranking members of the parliament and the dark biological transformation experiments of the Sect organization. Although it's not much, it's enough to understand what's going on in that experimental field.
The time when the experimental field was established, the progress of the experiment, the source of experimental materials, the time when the royal family of Parliament cooperated with the experimental field, etc...
Ka Xiu listened quietly and finally understood.
No wonder the Dark Hunting Organization, as an official extraordinary force, was such a behemoth, but it collapsed together with the Hongli Empire two or three years later.
It turns out that there was an internal disharmony, some pig teammates were holding us back, and they even stabbed us in the back! The Hongli Council and the Imperial Royal Family are obviously two such characters, and some of them have fallen into corruption, seduced by the long life span.
By calculation but not by accident, the dark hunting organization is already at a natural disadvantage.
The current Feileng Cui, the Dark Hunting Organization, the Hongli Council, the Imperial Royal Family, the Sect Organization, and the Dark Creatures. Each has its own complex purpose.
Obviously, there are already hints of future chaos.
Phew...a cold wind blew in from the gap in the iron door. Card Xiu stood up slowly, ignoring the white-haired man rolling on the ground in pain, but looked at Zhu Hun. In the next few days, he will have a good relationship with this member of the sect organization, and I hope the other party likes him.
The moon sets and the sun rises, the sun rises and the moon sets, and a few days pass in a flash.
Card Xiu would enter the Shelter Tower of the Disaster World every night, go to the Howler Canyon through a familiar road, and challenge each undead.
This kind of actual combat between fighters is undoubtedly the best way to consolidate the soaring and illusory strength. Within a few days, he had completely mastered the breakthrough of the eight acupoints of Nandou Red Eagle Fist. The resonance state of Nan Dou Yin Snake Fist has also completely ended, and it has been upgraded to the same level. Moreover, in battle after battle, Kaxiu broke through another acupoint, reaching 31.
Now, there are 31 Red Eagle Fist and 31 Sound Snake Fist, totaling 62.
His whole body was already like stars in the sky, with red and purple complementing each other, like a chessboard game, and like a bird of prey and a python strangled and entangled.
Kaxiu's cultivation has completely entered a period of rapid growth.
It is worth mentioning that the ghost man and the iron knight no longer acted with Card Xiu, and they did not even come to the world of disaster. They took the maximum number of soul jade back to Black Rain Villa to submit the task, and completed the card repair's instructions. Breaking into the knight-level group formed by the Black Dragon of Khorne and Master Ripple, he also took this opportunity to recruit qualified Markers.
August 3rd, the weather was fine.
Feileng Cui, Commercial District, Special Operations Branch.
This is a public building similar to the structure of a police station, but it is more secretive and there is no conspicuous sign at the door. If you don't look through the white wall, it looks like a private manor at most.
Inside the wall, the White Obsidian-level female hunter Rita yawned as she walked into a house and found the location of her team. She came early, the team members had not arrived yet, and there were only a few people in the entire hall. These colleagues were all yawning sleepily.
Rita glanced at the Special Operations Department and began to recall the unusual movements of the past few days. For some reason, the headquarters of the Dark Hunter Organization suddenly began to pay great attention to the city of Florence and sent a large number of hunters to perform patrol missions. Half of them entered the Special Operations Department, which led to a rapid expansion of the personnel of the Special Operations Department in a short period of time.
Logically speaking, there are so many people, almost doubled.
The patrol mission has been divided into shifts many times and the overflow is serious.
But the order from above is that only two shifts are allowed to patrol every corner of the capital as much as possible. This is not the case. Rita led her team members to patrol until the evening yesterday. After a long rest, she still felt a little listless when she got up this morning. But there is no way to deal with this. This is the highest order from the headquarters.
Rita led her team to patrol the commercial district, and encountered patrols led by dark gold hunters more than once. You should know that in the past, the Special Operations Department had only three patrol teams responsible for the two commercial districts, and the captains were only white Yao level. Rita only saw the dark gold hunter badge on the chest of the director and deputy director of the Special Operations Department.
Now, the situation is obviously different.
She even saw two figures wearing shadow hunter badges when the headquarters sent a large number of people three days ago! Obviously, the King of Florence had serious problems, otherwise the headquarters would not have made such a big fuss. But unfortunately, after three or four days of persistence, it seems that there is no special gain. It's just that the dark creatures are completely gone.
Originally, a group of them were killed by Kaxiu on the previous night.
Now the dark hunter organization is constantly searching day and night, and even killing the remaining dark creatures. After all, alien species also need to eat.
Sometimes you have to commit crimes against the wind, and the consequences are naturally needless to say.
Rita sat in her seat, and the team members soon arrived one by one. A moment later, a specialist came over to assign patrol tasks.
Everyone immediately sorted out their clothes, equipment, and weapons.
She patted the hunting-like clothes on her body and led her team to set off. I don’t know how long this situation will last.
On the other side, Thorn Solomon was completely panicked.
When he didn’t contact Zhuhun on the first day, he thought that the other party had important things to deal with and they would meet again soon. As a result, when he went there the next day, the wooden house was still the same as yesterday. The interior furnishings had not changed at all, which meant that Zhuhun had not returned at all.
Solomon still had a fluke mentality, so he waited for another day.
This time, he wrote a note and placed it in a prominent position on the table.
On the third day, the destined disappointment appeared. The note had not been opened, and no one came into the house. Did Zhuhun disappear completely?
Solomon was speechless for a moment. How could he disappear when they were working well together? This was too unreasonable. This mysterious organization must want to push him to the top of the Shadow Hunter because they wanted to deal with the entire Shadow Hunter organization. However, the other party suddenly disappeared.
Candle Soul Man is gone, what about the previous cooperation? Who can he ask for the advanced version of the Sin Thorn Secret Art? Where is the information about the location of the mission target?
Solomon's heart was blocked for a while. He suddenly hated this confidential single-line contact form so much. He didn't know what the other party had done wrong, and he couldn't contact this mysterious organization after the problem...
He could only wait anxiously like a headless fly.
This wait lasted for four days, and the mission period was more than halfway through.
Solomon then forced himself to suppress his impatience and planned to solve the first ring of the mission with his own strength first. Unexpectedly, the house leaked and it rained all night, and misfortunes never come alone. I don't know when a large number of patrol teams appeared in the entire Florence city area, all sent from the Hunter Association headquarters.
They patrolled non-stop morning and night, and there were many people, not letting go of every remote corner. Once there was a sign of activity of dark creatures, they would track it like a mad dog and kill or capture it.
This was an order from the head of the black agency!
Solomon couldn't help but start to worry about his mission target.
Wouldn't it be so unlucky? This was his third time...
Solomon had no doubt that the patrol team sent by the headquarters could kill the mission target, he saw many dark gold hunter leaders. And once there was a fight in one place, the hunter teams not far away would gather together and besiege the powerful alien species.
What if the target of his mission was exposed and found by these patrols in advance. Whether it was killed or captured, it meant that his third mission failed. That is to say, he immediately lost the qualification to continue the competition.
The lion king Soth also had the same distress. Although he was not eliminated directly, no one would not like to pass the assessment smoothly.
In this way, the two spent another three days in worry.
I don't know if it was because of bad luck or something, but Soth and Solomon found their mission targets one after another and completed the first link one after another. Before the two had time to rest, they were called directly to a hidden hall of the Hunter Association and received important notices.
"The tasks in the second and third rings that were originally scheduled have been canceled due to some reasons. You will now directly enter the fourth ring from the first ring, and the winner will be the new Shadow Hunter..."
Dilishati, the Holy Hunter, said to the four people in front of him.
"Go directly to the last step?" Solomon was stunned. How should Zhuhun and his promised plan to assassinate Card Xiu be implemented?
His expression changed slightly in the next second. Zhuhun people were all gone, so there was no assassination plan. Solomon slowly lowered his head, his eyes flickering.
"I remember that in the past, the final stage of the competition for Shadow Hunter seats was an actual battle, limited to a certain area, and all competitors fought in a melee..."
Claire said calmly, her expression unchanged.
"Melee..." Soth muttered these two words, looking at Card Xiu first, and then moved his eyes to Claire and Solomon next to him.
There is no doubt who is the most powerful enemy in this battle. Several other people can only work together to defeat it...
Next to him, Solomon's eyes kept moving back and forth.
Ka Xiu felt the gaze from the side, but his expression did not change at all. All this was already doomed when his courage returned to the realm of a fighter. And when Kaxiu's body has returned to the level of a top fighter, almost no one in the Dark Hunting organization can stop the advancement of his will.
If it weren't for the fact that he had to follow a procedural justice and fulfill Bai Kui's obsession, he would become one of the real top leaders of the dark hunting organization. He no longer wanted to play house with a few little dolls, it was really boring.
This didn't even make Card Xiu interested in interrogating Zhu Hun.
The source of the holy spring water has always been something he must obtain.
With a click, the hall door opened, and four figures walked out quickly. Ka Xiu fell at the back, his steps steady and powerful. He walked all the way out and surprisingly left the headquarters area of the Dark Hunting Organization.
Looking at the direction, it seems that they are going to the woods in the northern part of the sixth area of Feilengcui.
Seven days passed in a flash, and it had been a week since the experimental site was destroyed. Yang Yan died, Zhu Hun was captured, and the sect organization was unable to contact the person in charge. It would definitely send experts to the experimental site to investigate the situation. Ka Xiu put a fishing bait there, and there was a sharp enough fishhook hidden next to the bait, just to see if any fat fish would bite the hook...
Adjust your work and rest, your condition is very bad...
