"Candle Soul?"
Solomon called out softly, but no one responded. The expected scene of the candle soul in a black robe walking out of the shadows 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 muttering to himself. Still no one responded, and the room was filled with the silence of the night.
Solomon searched the entire cabin, but still no one was there.
"That shouldn't be the case. We agreed to come tonight to get the mission information..."
He frowned slightly, and although he had a bad feeling, he still comforted himself mentally. Maybe Zhuhun had other important things to do tonight, so he left temporarily and would probably be back at this time tomorrow.
Solomon had to leave, feeling a little disappointed.
After all, if we can get the specific location information of the mission target tonight, at the earliest in the early morning, at the latest tomorrow night. The first round of the Shadow Hunter seat competition can be successfully completed. Since the mission targets were kidnapped by Kaxiu twice and killed on the spot, causing the mission to fail, Solomon has left a shadow in his heart. If he fails to catch the mission target one day, he thinks that the possibility of the mission target being accidentally killed is getting higher and higher. He doesn't want to be eliminated after three mission failures.
That would not only be a failure, but would also make you a laughing stock.
Solomon took a deep breath and left the hut, blending into the darkness of the alley. He looked back and decided to come back tomorrow. I guess by then, Candle Soul would be sitting at the desk waiting for him.
It was late at night and the sky was like a black curtain with stars inlaid on it. The moonlight was a little dim, and there happened to be a dark cloud quietly blocking the moon. The stars shone brightly and overshadowed the main light.
The cool evening wind blew through a remote corner of the city, bending the weeds on the muddy ground slightly. There was also a smell of blood in the wind.
Very faint, but continuous.
It seemed to come from an abandoned warehouse not far away.
In the dark shadows of the rectangular warehouse, spots of blood were seen.
Kaxiu is an expert at interrogation. Or rather, all Nandou Hongjiuquan practitioners are experts at interrogation. The dead tooth force lightly scratches the skin and muscles, and the skin and flesh are instantly torn apart and turned into bones. It is as if there are dense teeth climbing and biting, eating up the human body until it is completely wiped clean.
The flesh and blood on Zhu Hun's arms had disappeared completely, leaving only white bones, forming a simple palm frame.
But he was a tough guy, keeping his mouth shut and not revealing the relevant information that Kaxiu wanted to know. On the contrary, the white-haired man next to him, who was trained by the parliament, started to scream just because half of his right hand was missing. He was spineless and answered every question.
All the secret information of the parliament that he had come into contact with was revealed in one go. It even included some of the content about some high-ranking members of the parliament cooperating with the dark biological transformation experiment of the sect organization. Although it was not much, it was enough to understand what was going on in that experimental field.
The time when the experimental site was established, the progress of the experiment, the source of the experimental materials, the time when the parliament and the royal family cooperated with the experimental site, etc.
Kaxiu listened quietly and finally understood everything.
No wonder the Dark Hunter Organization, as an official supernatural force, such a behemoth, collapsed along with the Red Leopard Empire after two or three years.
It turns out that there is internal disharmony, some teammates are dragging their feet, and even backstabbing! The Red Lebanese Parliament and the Imperial Royal Family are obviously two such characters, some of whom have already fallen and been tempted by a long life.
Unintentionally or not, the Dark Hunters were already at a natural disadvantage.
In Florence today, the Dark Hunters, the Red Council, the Imperial Royal Family, the Gate Organization, and the Dark Creatures all have their own complicated purposes.
Obviously, the signs of future chaos are already appearing now.
Huh… A gust of cold wind blew in from the gap in the iron door. Kaxiu slowly stood up, ignoring the white-haired man rolling on the ground in pain, and instead fixed his eyes on Zhuhun. In the next few days, he would have a good relationship with this member of the sect, and he hoped that the other party would like it.
The moon sets and the sun rises, the sun rises and the moon sets, and in a flash a few days have passed.
Every night, Kashu would enter the Sanctuary Tower in the Disaster World, and go to the Howling Canyon through familiar roads to challenge the undead one by one.
This kind of actual combat between fighters is undoubtedly the best way to consolidate the skyrocketing strength. In just a few days, he has completely mastered the breakthrough of the eight acupoints of the Nan Dou Hong Jiu Quan. The resonance state of the Nan Dou Yin She Quan has also been completely ended and upgraded to the same level. Moreover, in the battles, Kaxiu broke through another acupoint, reaching 31.
Now, there are 31 Red Eagle Fists and 31 Sound Snake Fists, a total of 62.
His whole body seemed like the stars in the sky, with red and purple colors shining against each other, like a game of chess, or like a fierce bird or python strangling 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 did not act with Kaxiu anymore, and they did not even come to the Disaster World. They took the largest number of Soul Jades back to Black Rain Villa to submit the mission and complete Kaxiu's instructions. They infiltrated the Knight-level group formed by Khorne Black Dragon and Ripple Master, and took this opportunity to recruit qualified Indian reporters.
*************************************
On August 3rd, the weather was fine.
Florence, business district, special operations department.
This is a public building similar to a police station, but more secretive, with no obvious 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 Obsidian-class female hunter Rita yawned as she walked into a house and found the location of her team. She came early, and the team members had not arrived yet. There were only a few people in the entire hall. These colleagues were all yawning sleepily.
Rita glanced at the Special Operations Division and began to recall the unusual movements of the past few days. For some reason, the Dark Hunter Organization headquarters suddenly began to pay great attention to Florence City and sent a large number of hunters to perform patrol missions. Half of them entered the Special Operations Division, which led to a rapid expansion of the Special Operations Division's personnel in a short period of time.
Logically speaking, with so many people, the number has almost doubled.
The patrol missions have been divided into multiple shifts and there has been serious overflow.
But the order from above was to only allow two shifts, and try to maintain the maximum number of hands to patrol every corner of the capital. This was not the case. Rita led the team members to patrol until the evening yesterday. After a long rest, she still felt a little listless when she got up this morning. However, there was nothing she could do about it. This was 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 only had three patrols responsible for the two commercial districts, and the captains were only at the White Obsidian level. Rita had only seen the dark gold hunter badge on the chests of the director and deputy director of the Special Operations Department.
Now, things are clearly different.
She even saw two figures wearing Shadow Hunter badges when the headquarters sent a large number of people three days ago! Obviously, there was a serious problem with the King of Florence, 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 nothing special to gain. It's just that the dark creatures are completely gone.
A group of them were killed by Kaxiu the night before.
Now the Dark Hunting Organization is constantly searching day and night, and has even killed the remaining dark creatures. After all, alien species also need to eat.
Sometimes you have to act against the wind, and the consequences are self-evident.
Rita sat in her seat, and the team members soon arrived one by one. After a while, a specialist came over to assign patrol tasks.
Everyone immediately sorted out their clothes, equipment, and weapons.
She patted the hunting suit on her body and led her team out. She didn't know how long this situation would 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. But 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 held on to hope, so he waited another day.
This time, he wrote a note and placed it in a prominent place on the table.
On the third day, the inevitable disappointment came. The note had not been opened, and no one came into the room. Did the candle soul completely disappear
Solomon was speechless for a moment. How could he disappear when they were working so well together? This was too unreasonable. This mysterious organization must want to push him to become a Shadowhunter, because they want to deal with the entire Shadowhunter organization. However, the other party suddenly disappeared.
Candle Soul is gone, what will happen to the previous cooperation? Who can he ask for the advanced version of the Sin Thorn Secret Art? Where is the location information of the mission target
Solomon was suddenly upset. He suddenly hated this confidential single-line communication method. He had no idea what happened to the other party, and he couldn't contact this mysterious organization after the problem occurred...
I can only go around in circles like a headless fly, waiting anxiously.
This wait lasted four days, and half of the mission period was already passed.
Solomon then suppressed his impatience and planned to complete the first round of tasks with his own strength. Unexpectedly, when it rains, it pours. A large number of patrol teams appeared in the entire Florence city area, all sent from the Hunter Association headquarters.
They patrolled day and night without interruption, and there were many of them, not sparing any remote corner. Once there were signs of activity of dark creatures, they would track them down like mad dogs and kill or capture them.
This is an order from the head of the Black Agency!
Solomon couldn't help but start to worry about his mission objectives.
Can he really be so unlucky? This is his third time...
Solomon had no doubt that the patrol team sent by the headquarters could kill the target of the mission. He had seen many dark gold-level hunter leaders. And once a fight broke out in one place, hunter teams not far away would gather together and besiege the powerful alien species.
If the target of the mission is exposed and found by the patrol team in advance, whether it is killed or captured, it means that the third mission has failed, which means that the qualification to continue the competition will be immediately lost.
The lion king Soth also had the same trouble. Although he was not eliminated directly, no one would dislike passing the assessment smoothly.
In this way, the two spent another three days in worry.
It was not known whether it was due to sheer luck or something, but Sos and Solomon found their mission targets one after another and completed the first round. Before the two had time to rest, they were called directly to a hidden hall of the Hunter Association and received an important notice.
"The second and third ring missions that were originally scheduled have now been canceled for some reason. You will now enter the fourth ring directly from the first ring, and the winner will be the new Shadow Hunter..."
The Holy Light Hunter Dilishati said to the four people in front of him.
"Go directly to the last link?" Solomon was stunned. How should he implement the plan that Zhuhun and he promised to assassinate Kaxiu
His expression changed slightly the next second. The Candle Soul was gone, so where did the assassination plan come from? Solomon slowly lowered his head, his eyes flickering.
"I remember that the final stage of the Shadow Hunter seat competition used to be a real battle, limited to an area, where all competitors fought in a melee..."
Claire said calmly, her expression not changing.
"Melee..." Soth muttered these two words, first looking at Kaxiu, then shifting his gaze to Claire and Solomon beside him.
Without a doubt, it was clear who was the most powerful enemy in this battle. The others could only join forces to defeat him...
Next to him, Solomon's eyes kept moving back and forth.
Kaxiu felt the gazes from the side, but his expression did not change at all. All this was destined when his spirit was restored to the level of a fighter. When Kaxiu's physique was restored to the level of a top fighter, almost no one in the Dark Hunter Organization could stop his will.
If it weren't for the need to follow procedural justice, fulfill Bai Kui's obsession, and become one of the real top leaders of the Dark Hunter Organization, he would have long since stopped wanting to play house with a few little kids, as it was really boring.
This didn't even arouse Kaxiu's interest as much as interrogating Zhuhun.
The source of the holy spring has always been something he must obtain.
With a click, the hall door opened and four figures walked out quickly. Kaxiu was the last one, his steps were steady and powerful. He walked all the way out and had already left the headquarters area of the Dark Hunter Organization.
Judging from the direction, it seems that we are heading to the woods in the northern part of the sixth district of Florence.
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 could not contact the person in charge, so they would definitely send experts to investigate the situation at the experimental site. Kaxiu put a bait there, and there was a sharp enough fish hook hidden next to the bait, and it depended on whether there was a fat fish to bite the hook...
