It was a sunny day on Little Devil Island in the morning.
Although the name of the island was not nice and there were all sorts of monsters, the plants were thriving. The morning air was filled with the fragrance of flowers and grass, it was very fresh.
Lin Huang woke up at seven in the morning. After he got out of the tent, he stretched and took a deep breath. "The air is so fresh!"
After washing up and having some snacks for breakfast, Lin Huang kept the portable tent and summoned the Viridian Wolf.
He rode on the Viridian Wolf and headed towards the center of the island.
He did not summon the Alexandrian Eagle because the island was not big to begin with. With the Viridian Wolf's speed, they could reach their destination in half an hour. As Lin Huang had just woken up, he wanted to warm up by killing some monsters along the way.
The Viridian Wolf carried Lin Huang for more than 20 kilometers in the jungle. All the monsters that they encountered along the way were easily killed by him with his sword. The Viridian Wolf did not even slow down at all.
Suddenly, Lin Huang patted the Viridian Wolf's back and it immediately stopped running.
On Lin Huang's right middle finger, a silver ring transformed into a modified SilverPhoenix16 in his right hand. He had exchanged points from the Purple Crow.
He recalled the Viridian Wolf and turned around to look at a big tree not far away. "Who's there?!"
With the [Sensing Circle], nothing within a 300-meter radius could escape Lin Huang's detection. He had sensed that someone was following him from afar.
Although he could not see the person's face, he could roughly sense the person's height and build. Lin Huang was sure that it was not Xia Yu.
"You're the first one to be able to detect my tracking." A muscular young man revealed himself.
Lin Huang vaguely remembered that he was one of the candidates who had passed the third round of the assessment. However, he did not hide his aura and Lin Huang could easily sense that his aura was even stronger than his.
After sizing him up, Lin Huang also noticed the three cross tattoos on the left side of his neck. "Are you a heretic?"
"That's right." The sturdy young man nodded with a smile. "I know your name, Lin Huang. You are the one with the most dazzling performance in this assessment. He managed to kill a silver-level rank-3 mutated monster when he's only a bronze-level rank-3. He must have a powerful summoning beast, right? "
"Since you know about this, aren't you afraid that I'll summon a monster that's powerful enough to kill you now that I've leveled up to silver-level?" Lin Huang asked while smiling.
"Of course I'm not. Although you hid your aura with a special technique, you're still a silver-level rank-1. You've only leveled up to silver-level for two to three days. Even if you have enough Life Crystals, it's impossible for you to level up to silver-level rank-2 in such a short period of time. Therefore, the most powerful monster you can summon is only gold-level rank-1. I'm already a complete gold-level rank-3. " Although the sturdy young man said so, he did not immediately attack Lin Huang. It seemed that he was also a little afraid of Lin Huang's summoned beast.
"So? Are you going to kill me? Or are you going to recruit me? "Lin Huang asked.
"Of course it's the latter. We, the heretics, have always been a peaceful organization." The sturdy young man smiled while spreading his arms.
"If I refuse to be recruited, you'll kill me. Isn't that what the underworld does? Do you think this is what a peaceful organization would do? "Lin Huang teased.
"No, we, the heretics, don't like this. We like to capture those who refuse to be recruited and educate them. In the end, they'll become one of us. "The sturdy young man shook his head and gave another answer while smiling.
"So, brainwashing? It's indeed different from the other underworld organizations … "Lin Huang was speechless about the way the organization did things. "Why me?"
"Not only you, all the kids who passed the third assessment are our targets. You're the 36th person that I've encountered. Based on the current progress, my partner and I should be able to capture all the targets before noon today. We'll make sure that the Hunters' Association doesn't get anything at this assessment! "The sturdy young man smiled proudly.
"So, you're using the Hunters' Association to filter the targets and then you're picking them up?" Lin Huang roughly knew what the man was thinking. "However, there are less than 500 people who passed the third assessment. With such a small number, even if you capture all of them, you won't be able to strengthen your organization, right? Could it be … "
The sturdy young man seemed to be alerted by what Lin Huang said. His facial expression changed. "Kid, you have too many questions."
As soon as he said that, he attacked Lin Huang. He clawed at Lin Huang.
"Tyrant!"
As soon as Lin Huang said that, Tyrant was already in front of him. It threw a punch at the sturdy young man.
"F * ck off!" The muscular young man shouted. He clenched his fist and punched Tyrant's fist.
The next moment, two fists, one big and one small, collided with each other.
With the point of impact as the epicenter, a strong shockwave spread and dust flew everywhere.
Even Lin Huang, who was behind Tyrant, could not help but raise his arm to cover his nose and mouth with his sleeve.
After a while, a "boom" sound of explosion rang out.
The sturdy young man's body was instantly thrown out. His body rolled and crashed through more than ten giant trees before finally falling to the ground.
Meanwhile, Tyrant's huge body was still standing at the same spot. He did not even move a millimeter.
Lin Huang was slightly shocked when he saw the power of Tyrant's punch. He knew very well that if he was the one who was thrown out and crashed through so many trees, he would not be able to survive. However, his opponent's combat level was a whole level higher than his. He might not die so easily.
"Tyrant, see if he's dead. If he's not dead, don't kill him yet. I have something to ask him, "Lin Huang said to Tyrant.
Tyrant nodded and walked towards the sturdy young man.
After a while, he walked towards the sturdy young man and picked him up.
He then returned to Lin Huang and placed the sturdy young man on the ground.
He was on the brink of death. His gold-level equipment had been shattered by the Tyrant's punch. If it were not for the protection of the armor, he would have died the moment the Tyrant hit him.
However, even now, he might not have a single bone in his body that was in good condition.
"You're not silver-level rank-1 …" The sturdy young man looked at Lin Huang with hatred.
"I've never admitted that I'm silver-level rank-1. You're the one who thinks so." Lin Huang shook his head.
"An Imperial Censor with a double mutated summoning beast and a genius … I deserve to die …" The sturdy young man said and coughed out a mouthful of blood.
Obviously, his internal organs were shaken by Tyrant's punch. It seemed like he would not live for long.
"I have a few questions to ask you." Lin Huang squatted down.
"I won't tell you. Don't waste your time." The sturdy young man looked away and did not look at Lin Huang anymore.
"It's not up to you." Lin Huang said and summoned the Ghastly Clown.
"This clown, the one in Daxi City …" The sturdy young man knew about the Ghastly Clown in Daxi City. He looked at Lin Huang in fear when he saw the Ghastly Clown that Lin Huang summoned. "Who are you?!"
"Clown, control him." Lin Huang frowned as he did not expect the man to recognize the clown.
The next moment, a mask appeared in the clown's hand. After putting it on, the face of the sturdy young man turned into that of the sturdy young man.
"Are we not the only ones that were attacked? How many of them were attacked? "Lin Huang asked the question that he had guessed earlier.
"There are more than 180 assessment sites in Division7 and we attacked 63 of them."
"What's the real purpose of the attack? Is it really just to rob the candidates? "Lin Huang asked again.
"It's to rob the candidates of the Hunters' Association and train new members for the organization."
"How did you guys manage to get into the assessment?" Lin Huang could guess the answer but he was not sure.
"The Hunters' Association has spies in the assessment sites that were attacked. All we had to do was to tamper with their identities. Our cultivation level was temporarily sealed by the immortal-level, and the organization's expert in disguise helped us to cover up the organization's tattoo and other information that could easily expose our identities. "
"How many of you came to this assessment site and how strong are they?" Lin Huang continued to ask.
"A total of 11 of us, one holy fire-level and 10 gold-level rank-3."
Lin Huang's pupils shrunk when he heard the answer. He did not expect a holy fire-level transcendent to join the assessment. The examiners were only gold-level. Even Mu Lan who was ranked fourth on the Gold Hunter Leaderboard could not defeat a holy fire-level transcendent.
"Is it the same for the other assessment sites?"
"Yes, they're led by a holy fire-level executive officer and there are 10 to 12 gold-level rank-3 members."
Lin Huang was sure that the Hunters' Association would definitely be at a disadvantage when he heard the answer.
"Where are you hiding the people you've captured?" Lin Huang was puzzled about this as well.
"In the pseudo Abyss Prison. The pseudo Abyss Prison is a one-time relic that replicates the grade-5 relic, the Abyss Prison. It can store creatures that have lost their consciousness many times. However, as soon as the creatures are released, they'll disintegrate automatically. Each of us has one with us for this mission. "
After listening to the muscular young man's explanation, Lin Huang figured out that the young man must have knocked the person out and put him into the fake black prison. He then noticed the black cage on the muscular man's waist. He was curious as to why he was wearing such a strange accessory.
After grabbing the cage, Lin Huang asked, "Is this the pseudo Abyss Prison that you've mentioned? How do I release them?"
"Yes, there's a spiral life pattern at the front of the cage. All you have to do is insert your Life Power into it and rotate it three times against the direction of the life pattern."
"If you manage to capture them, how do you leave the assessment site?" Lin Huang could guess the answer but he wanted to confirm it.
"The executive officer who leads the team has a one-time dimensional equipment. We'll …" The muscular man spat out a mouthful of blood and started coughing.
Lin Huang looked at the Ghastly Clown who was next to him. The clown shook its head and Lin Huang knew that it meant that there was no way for him to continue asking.
After coughing for a while, the muscular man spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and died. The mask on the Ghastly Clown's face disappeared.
