Three days later, Fangzheng arrived at the location provided by Cephelia on time.
"So this is the meeting place."
Looking at the villa in front of him, Fangzheng raised his eyebrows, then drove the car into the villa.
"Welcome."
When Fangzheng got out of the car, a long-haired young man wearing glasses was standing at the door, waiting for him with a smile.
"You must be Mr. 'F'. I've heard a lot about you. My name is Gulin, and I'm the organizer of the Bounty Hunter Alliance. "
As he spoke, the youth named Gu Lin sized up Fangzheng. He saw that Fangzheng was carrying two huge suitcases in each hand. He looked like an ordinary tourist.
"Mr. F, what are you …."
"Oh, you don't have to worry about that."
Fangzheng glanced at Gulin, then strode into the house.
When Fangzheng walked into the house, everyone inside raised their heads and looked at him. But when they saw Fangzheng's true appearance, they couldn't help but be shocked. After all, Fangzheng's appearance was only that of a fifteen-year-old boy, which meant that he had just obtained his bounty hunter license …. What was going on?
Fangzheng did not care about the gazes of the crowd. He just glanced around, then found a place to sit down and put the two suitcases in his hands beside him.
At that moment, the bell rang, and the door closed. At the same time, Gulin walked in and looked at the crowd.
"Okay, everyone, time's up. I hereby announce that everyone here will form the Bounty Hunter Alliance! We'll hunt down Kuride together! "
As he spoke, Gulin looked at the bounty hunters around him.
"Before I announce Kuride's hiding place, I'd like to confirm whether everyone is ready to arrest Kuride."
"Of course we're ready. Otherwise, why would we be here?"
Very soon, a burly man answered, and Gu Lin nodded his head.
"Then, let's set off tonight. In fact, I've already completed the preparations to invade the Star Apostles' base."
Hearing this, everyone's expression suddenly froze. Gu Lin glanced at the black-haired young man standing beside him and said, "What's the matter with you?
"Their base is ten kilometers southwest of here.... in the Adenia Sea."
"Adenia?"
Hearing this name, the other middle-aged man wearing an eyepatch and a white suit was shocked.
"Isn't that place …"
"That's right. It's made up of hundreds of islands. There are villas of rich people from all over the world on them …. That's where Kurid is hiding."
"He really knows how to find a place."
Fangzheng snorted. He also knew about that place. Because every island was independent, as long as you bought it, no one could stop you from conducting cult rituals or carrying out terrorist attacks. To put it bluntly, each island here was equivalent to a small kingdom.
Apart from the isolation of the world, there were few disadvantages.
Of course, for those terrorist organizations, being isolated from the world itself was the greatest benefit.
"We'll talk about the specific location when we get to the dock. Let's go first."
Gulin was obviously quite cautious. He did not immediately reveal Kurid's hiding place. Fangzheng did not mind. He shrugged, stood up, and was about to leave. But at that moment, a man stood in front of Fangzheng.
"Who are you?"
Fangzheng raised his eyebrows and stared at the man in front of him. It was a young man with black hair and black eyes. He looked to be in his early twenties. He was dressed rather casually, and on his chest was a tattoo of 'XIII' …. Hmm, this style is very familiar. Is this guy also a member of the Time Guardians?
"Torre Hartnett."
Faced with Fangzheng's question, the black-haired man answered with a smile. Then, he stared at Fangzheng and asked.
"You're 'F'?"
"So?"
"I heard that you defeated Kuride and almost killed him?"
"Almost? That's no different from nothing."
Fangzheng shook his head and stared at the black-haired man in confusion. He did not understand why the man came to him and asked him this question.
However, the black-haired man did not say anything. He just stared at Fangzheng and grinned.
"I'll definitely catch him this time."
"Then …. I wish you good luck."
Although Fangzheng did not know why the other party was arguing with him, he was not bored enough to fight over such a trivial matter. He just shrugged and left with his suitcase.
After nightfall, the group arrived at the port under Gulin's lead. Gulin had prepared a speedboat here. According to him, the bounty hunters could take the speedboat to Kurid's hiding place. At this moment, Gulin finally revealed Kurid's exact location.
"He's on an island called S-3. This island belongs to a mysterious tycoon, but in fact, it's the base of the Apostles of Stars."
Standing in front of the speedboat, Gulin looked at the group with a smile.
"I'll leave the specifics of how to land on the island and fight with Kurid to you. If you catch him, please contact me. I'll be on standby here. Then …. I wish you all good luck. "
Having said that, Gulin took a step back while the others boarded the speedboat — except for Fangzheng.
"Aren't you boarding?"
"I have my own way."
Facing the puzzled gazes of the group, Fangzheng shrugged. Upon hearing his answer, one of the bounty hunters chuckled coldly.
"Hehehe, don't tell me you're scared and want to run away."
Clang!
Upon hearing that, the suitcase by Fangzheng's feet shook. As for Fangzheng, he pressed down on the suitcase and chuckled.
"Whatever. I prefer to complete missions my own way anyway. Besides …"
Having said that, Fangzheng swept a glance at the smiling Gu Lin.
"I've never trusted those squinty eyes. I'll take my leave now."
After saying that, Fangzheng turned around and left with his suitcase. The others quickly withdrew their gazes and drove the speedboat away from the dock. Only Gulin remained standing in the same spot. Watching Fangzheng's figure disappear into the darkness, he smiled bitterly.
"As expected of someone who gives Captain Sephilia a headache …. Looks like he's really troublesome."
Just as everyone was getting ready to challenge the final BOSS, Fangzheng went around the dock and arrived at the bay on the other side.
"Seriously, humans are really rude. Have you always been dealing with these kinds of people?"
Lying on her suitcase, Zhen Hong floated behind Fangzheng while complaining unhappily. Kiwiberry, on the other hand, was lying on another suitcase, clutching Red tightly and looking around anxiously.
"This is what bounty hunters do. You've never seen it before, right?"
"We're puppets. Who would bring puppets to the battlefield?"
Zhen Hong was also quite speechless. Although they had been sold several times after they were created, dolls were usually left at home. Who would bring such a thing to the battlefield?
"I'm not going to bring you to the battlefield."
"But aren't you going to catch that guy named Kuride?"
Although Red was not clear about the cause and effect, she knew that Kuride was a criminal, and Fangzheng was going to catch him.
"There are many ways to catch him, and times have changed."
As he spoke, Fangzheng raised his right hand and took out his personal terminal — — this was the only thing he could bring to this world.
After all, it was a technological product. It was convenient and reliable, and it was an external force, just like how some protagonists in web novels would find a bottle stick after falling off a cliff.
Soon, the waves began to roll, and a loud, dark voice gradually emerged from the sea.
"Wow — —! A whale! "
Looking at the dark shadow in front of her, Chizuki clapped her hands excitedly with a smile, while Red stared at the thing in surprise.
"What's this?"
"A submarine. I got it. It's been slightly modified …. I think it should be fine now."
Fangzheng confirmed the situation inside and nodded in satisfaction.
Fangzheng had secretly hacked into the control system of the submarine through an American military satellite while it was being maintained at the port and installed a small virus on it. After the submarine went out to sea, Fangzheng used the virus to control it and shut down the oxygen circulation system, causing all the American soldiers inside to suffocate to death. After Fangzheng threw the corpses into the sea to feed the fish, the ownership of the submarine naturally changed.
As for whether the Americans would notice that the submarine was lost, Fangzheng was not worried at all. Strategic nuclear submarines of this kind generally carried out secret missions and would not send out any communication unless it was necessary. Unless the Americans did not return when the time came, the Americans would not notice that they had lost a nuclear submarine.
"Okay, let's go up."
Fangzheng and the two puppets sailed a small boat to the submarine, then opened the door and got in. Soon, the big black fish quietly sank into the sea, and everything became quiet again.
"Are you going to use this to catch a criminal?"
Red looked at the equipment in the submarine curiously. It was the first time she had seen such a thing as a puppet. On the other hand, Fledgling curiously ran around in the submarine, watching the bustling scene.
"Catch a criminal? Just kill him and everything will be fine."
Fangzheng snorted in response to Red's question.
"I hate those superhero movies the most. They can obviously kill the bosses, but they keep them locked up, and then after a few years, they'll be rescued and continue to harm the world …. Isn't that a waste of money?"
What are you looking at? I'm talking about you, Batman, you idiot.
Fangzheng would never make such a mistake. He was sure that Kuride had most likely obtained some powerful power and resurrected. That was why Ophelia was so nervous.
But now …. Hehehe, I'd like to see if you can withstand a cruise missile.
To be honest, Fangzheng had regarded the Apostles of the Stars as idiots from the beginning. Did they really think that the evolution of human civilization over the years was fake? Their ability might have been useful two or three hundred years ago, but what could they do now? No matter how powerful Kuride was, could he withstand a cruise missile? I'll blow up the whole island and see what you'll have left!
Therefore, in Fangzheng's opinion, the so-called revolution of the Apostles of the Stars was a joke. If you acted as a terrorist and fought guerrilla warfare in the city, the regular army would not be able to do anything to you. But if you were stupid enough to gather a team to cause trouble, it would depend on whether the cruise missile agreed to it or not.
Just a few Ability Users, at most Level 4 in the school city, and they dared to come out and cause trouble?
Were they tired of living?
Fangzheng did not make a move before because he did not know where Kuride was. But now that he knew ….
"Let's see what that guy is up to."
As he spoke, Fangzheng activated the personal terminal in his hand and began to scan the target area.
The next moment, under the night sky, a dark island appeared on the screen.
