Guidie Shiqi was in a bad mood. He had been cheated of another two million.
Two million! Normally, he could buy a box of that potion for ten thousand, but the situation had forced him to do so.
Guidie Shiqi glared at the cat, only to find that the cat was looking at him suspiciously. Guidie Shiqi was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
"I just didn't write an IOU, right? With my reputation, are you afraid that I will go back on my word?! "
Wheeze continued to grow suspicious. There were two cards under its paws, one with a hundred thousand, and the other with three hundred thousand or so. Let's round it up and call it three hundred thousand.
"So, Guidie Shiqi, you owe a total of one million and six hundred thousand! If you go back on your word, I will let the entire League of Stars know about your debt! "Huimao said with a serious face.
Guidie Shiqi felt his wounds open again. He wasn't sure if it was because of his anger. He wiped his face and said to his partner, who was focused on recovering, "Swallowtail, if you see these two in the future, stay away from them!"
Swallowtail didn't even bother to look at them. Today, he finally realized that Vanguard had such an outrageous person. In the past, the military thought that Hunters were all money-sucking vampires. Swallowtail thought it was only natural, but now that it had happened to him, he had personally experienced the feeling of grinding his teeth. Of course, Guidie Shiqi, who had been cheated twice, had experienced it even more.
What a scam!
Just then, Silin's communicator rang. It was Kari.
"Captain, we don't need to go to the rocks. The exotic beasts there are all running out of their caves in fright. It saves us the trouble of chasing them away."
"Are there a lot of them?" Silin asked.
"Not bad. Enough for us to make a fortune!" Kari seemed very happy.
"If there are too many of them, just take a step back and do what you can."
"Got it!"
After the report, Kari informed the others. Eudy also gathered everyone. They couldn't be too scattered when dealing with these exotic beasts. They had already made a plan before this, so when Eudy said it, everyone naturally started to move. Each of them rubbed their palms together and prepared to hunt.
Money, it was all money that was running towards him! Kari could already see the shining horn on the head of the exotic beast running at the front. It shone like gold, causing Kari to almost drool.
The horn of this kind of exotic beast had a faint fragrance that could expel pests. It also had a calming effect on the human body. It was very popular among the rich when it was made into ornaments or pendants. Good quality ones could be sold for five digits.
However, the shells of these exotic beasts were too hard, and they were very fast. They liked to live in groups in rocky areas, and they had violent temperaments. Many hunters had suffered at their hands.
Kari switched the bullets, pulling down the magazine for hunting small beasts and switching it to a magazine specifically for dealing with medium to large armored exotic beasts. Their guns were two-in-one so that they could react faster in such a situation.
Bang!
A bullet accurately shot into the eye of an exotic beast charging at them, exploding right where its eye was. It was just enough to blast the exotic beast's brain into smithereens, but still keep the horn on its head intact.
Kari looked at Tang Qiuqiu not far away. He wasn't the one who fired the shot. While he was still aiming, Tang Qiuqiu fired the first shot, accurate as always. It seemed like Tang Qiuqiu's marksmanship hadn't fallen behind in the past two to three years. Her standards were still the same.
After Tang Qiuqiu fired the first shot, the others opened fire one after another. Meanwhile, Xi Kai's robot would take the opportunity to cut off the horns of the dead exotic beasts, to prevent the most valuable parts from falling into the hands of others. After the hunt was over, Kari and the others would return to deal with the exotic beasts they had killed. After all, they didn't have the time to do such "delicate" work, and the exotic beasts that kept coming at them with their pincers wouldn't give them the chance to do so, either.
Ba Dao knew that the hunt had officially begun, so he couldn't stay there any longer. Silin had the three of them join in the hunt, while he left Guidie Shiqi and Swallowtail to watch over them. After all, the two of them were in a critical period of recovery. If no one was there to watch over them, it would be very easy for them to be ambushed. Even a small exotic beast could take them out.
"Is that okay? Let's leave Silin alone, "Shusag asked after he left with Ba Dao.
"Silin is very strong. Plus, with Lord Wheezing around, they should be fine as long as they don't run into a large group," Ba Dao replied.
Shusag had never seen Silin fight before, and neither had he seen Huimao use his claws. He knew that the cat was no ordinary person, but he couldn't imagine just how strong it was.
Swallowtail was a little surprised that Silin would stay behind to watch over them, but when he looked at Guidie Shiqi, he realized that this was the kind of expression the guy should have when he was in a dungeon, so he wasn't surprised at all. Swallowtail couldn't help but change his opinion of the man who was a lot younger than he was. Plus, Vanguard and Lan Hudie weren't enemies.
"Hey, Silin, are you still in the Sixth Division? What's your position now? "Guidie Shiqi asked.
Before Silin could answer, Huimao raised his chin and declared cockily, "We're the Eleventh Squad now!"
The Eleventh B Squadron?
"Doesn't Vanguard only have ten B Squadrons?" Guidie Shiqi was puzzled.
"We have eleven now. Silin just built them," Huimao said proudly.
"Why are you so cocky? It's not like you built them," Guidie Shiqi taunted.
Guidie Shiqi thought that Huimao would explode in anger, but nothing happened after a while.
Huimao ignored Guidie Shiqi. His attention was drawn to something else. The cat's ears were twitching, and the long hair inside his ears were vibrating as well. Like a radar, they reflected the situation around them.
After moving his ears, Huimao suddenly said, "Silin!"
Silin had obviously noticed it as well. The commotion seemed to have spread too far and exceeded Silin's estimation.
Noticing Silin and Huimao's unusual behavior, Guidie Shiqi looked at Swallowtail. Swallowtail was also looking puzzled. Neither of them had noticed anything out of the ordinary. Perhaps it was because of their injuries that their senses had decreased.
Silin sensed activity in the distance. It was the direction where Kari and the others were hunting. However, Silin had a bad feeling about it.
Silin had always trusted his instincts, so he immediately contacted Eudy and the others and told Kari and the others to give up on hunting and return to Vanguard immediately.
When they heard Cillin's words, although they were a little reluctant to part with the prey in front of them, they immediately retreated according to Cillin's orders.
"What's wrong?" Guidie Shiqi looked at Silin.
Silin didn't answer directly. Instead, he injected Guidie Shiqi and Swallowtail with two potions.
"You!"
Silin's speed was too fast. Guidie Shiqi and Swallowtail had no time to react. Perhaps it was because they had let their guard down in front of Silin that they couldn't stop Silin.
Swallowtail was shocked. Even though he had let his guard down, Silin's movements were too fast. Even if he hadn't been injured, he might not have been able to dodge. Without any warning, he couldn't have guessed that Silin would make such a move.
"Don't worry. It's just a potion to help you recover faster. It's much more expensive than the ones we gave you before."
Swallowtail carefully felt his body. The potion really did make him feel a lot better. Even his breathing was a lot smoother.
Guidie Shiqi's face twitched. "What now?" Ask for more money?
Boom, boom, boom!
There were three consecutive noises. The noises didn't come from this direction. Judging from the distance, they were clearly shaking. Guidie Shiqi shuddered.
An earthquake?
Silin stepped on the trunk of a nearby tree and leaped up to the top. He looked into the distance.
A flock of startled birds had already taken to the sky. They were flying in his direction.
Silin turned on his communicator and said to Eudy and the others, "Get back here now! Don't fly. Go straight to the forest! "
At the same time, Silin had Xi Kai send more robots to the area. He didn't want to be delayed if they ran into a beast horde.
Realizing the urgency of the situation, everyone sped up.
Silin told Huimao to connect to the spaceplane and wait for Kari and the others to arrive before leaving.
Meanwhile, Moon and Sigma were flying toward the city as well after they received word of what had happened.
"Was that an earthquake just now, Moon?" Sigma asked while flying.
"I don't know. It didn't look like a natural earthquake." Sigma was puzzled. Before coming to this area, he had studied the map. This wasn't an earthquake zone, so why would an earthquake of this magnitude happen? Even when it fired its cannons earlier, it didn't cause such a huge commotion.
The group of people rushing toward the spaceplane had to avoid small exotic beasts that were running around in panic every now and then. They also had to avoid trees and bushes in the forest. There were no such obstacles in the air, but Silin had warned them not to run in the air. They couldn't fly even if they were on hoverboards. Therefore, it was really depressing to watch the transport robots fly freely in the air while they had to avoid so many obstacles on the ground.
Kari shot an exotic beast that pounced at him and shouted, "Why are there so many exotic beasts?! Did we run into a beast horde? "
"It's a beast horde. Why are they all coming this way?" Eudy looked at the growing number of exotic beasts around them. These were the ones that were lucky. They didn't have much attack power, and there were still large exotic beasts chasing after them. No wonder Silin had told them to retreat.
The epicenter of the earthquake had come from three different directions in a triangular formation. If they had been any slower, they would've been surrounded by these beasts, and it would've been a lot more dangerous than it was now.
"Seriously, why is there an earthquake at a time like this?" Xiao Shang grumbled.
"Stop complaining and get back to the spaceplane!"
Eudy had just finished saying that to Xiao Shang when he heard three pops. One of them was only half a meter away from him, while the other two came from Xiao Shang and Kari.
After the three pops, three people wearing stealth equipment appeared and fell to the ground. All three of them had their heads blown off.
Shusag was about to react when he saw a person appear in front of him and Tesoro. A slender blade pierced through his neck, and a figure appeared behind him. The person was holding a blade, and the blade was only ten centimeters away from him.
The blade beside Shusag's neck gave off a hair-raising aura as it pierced through the person's forehead.
The person in front of him was none other than Silin.
Silin and Huimao had rushed over as soon as they sensed something was amiss. It was just as he thought. Someone was trying to kill them!
Shusag's eyelids twitched uncontrollably. If it weren't for Cillin, either he or Tesoro would've been seriously injured or killed on the spot. These people were just too good at concealment, and the beast stampede had given them the perfect opportunity to conceal their auras.
"Someone's here! We're under attack! "
The others reacted quickly.
Screech —
Xi Kai released a strong interference electromagnetic signal. This electromagnetic signal could cause the invisibility equipment on those people to malfunction. As a robot maker, he knew stealth equipment all too well, and he carried an anti-stealth device with him out of habit.
Thanks to Xi Kai's interference signal, everyone could see the intruders even without the aid of a device. It wasn't very clear, but it was enough.
Snowball, who had always looked like a naive bear, swelled to a height of five meters, long fangs protruding, and its eyes changed. Its silver pupils were like a world of ice and snow, cold and cruel, making it look very sinister.
Tang Qiuqiu threaded a strap under Snowball's armpit and tied it securely around its shoulder. This way, she could stay on Snowball's shoulder steadily, and at the same time, borrow Snowball's protection to look for opportunities to shoot the figures that appeared due to the interference.
Meanwhile, Xueqiu was cleaning up the brainless alien beasts around him. He swung his arm and sent a couple of them flying. Judging from his strength, there was no way they could survive.
Xueqiu might look clumsy, but he wasn't slow in the slightest. Even with his speed, Tang Qiuqiu was able to find opportunities to shoot at the intruders. Not only that, she was also able to land a headshot on every one of them. This kind of teamwork was probably something they had done many times before. Their teamwork was excellent, and they reacted quickly to the ambush as well.
Shusag was busy taking care of the assassins around him. He had been careless earlier because he didn't pay attention to the beast horde. At the same time, this experience also made him understand that this was a new world with a new set of rules. Since he had decided to lead a wonderful life in this new world with Tesoro, he had to accept the cruelty of this world as soon as possible and integrate into it.
This wasn't the Mist Bodhisattva Empire. This was a place where strength mattered the most. Every assassin here had gone through countless life and death battles, so their physical and mental fortitude were far superior to the average person's. Even Xi Kai's invisible robots couldn't keep up with the assassins' movements once they discovered their targets. Even if they could keep up with the assassins in terms of raw speed, they couldn't do anything about it if their minds couldn't keep up. Therefore, they had to rely on their own strength to solve the problem.
"Pay attention to Chifeng!" Shusag said to Tesoro. "Leave the others to me. Pay attention to Chifeng's movements and claws."
Shusag had been paying attention to Chifeng since a long time ago. It wasn't because Chifeng wasn't human like them, but because of Chifeng's claws.
In battle, Chifeng's claws would always strike from the most precise and effortless angle. It wasn't a deliberate move, but an instinctive one. This was what shocked Shusag the most. Not even he could claim that his claws were better than Chifeng's.
Moreover, Chifeng might look small, but even Shusag had no choice but to dodge his explosive power. He hoped that Tesoro could learn something useful from Chifeng.
Chifeng aside, Shusag had also paid attention to Tang Qiuqiu. The two kids fought almost entirely on instinct and instinct.
What kind of environment did these two children grow up in? Talent?
Shusag had always believed that talent was only a decoration. The key was still the person. It was like a blade. No matter how sharp it was, it all depended on who wielded it. Only those who wielded it well wouldn't waste it, and those who didn't know how to use it would only be a waste.
Czedow was the only one who fought bare-handed. Of course, Shusag and his kind didn't count. Their claws were their own weapons. But Czedow fought bare-handed. When Cary looked over, he just happened to see Czedow twisting the gun barrel of a killer's hand like a fried dough twist and removing the killer's entire arm. There wasn't a single drop of blood on Czedow.
This is … too fucking violent!
Although Xi Kai's interference was effective, it was only limited to those who wore stealth equipment. There were also some killers who could turn invisible to begin with, so they wouldn't be affected by the electromagnetic interference. Fortunately, there were only a few of them. After Xi Kai's interference forced the killers to show themselves, Silin turned his attention to the invisible people and eliminated them first.
Ever since the chip inside his body was fully activated, Silin's constitution had improved by leaps and bounds. It wasn't obvious from the outside, but both his speed and perception were far better than before. Silin could see the invisible people as well. He couldn't see their complete appearance, only their silhouettes. But that was already a lot better than the others.
Sha Rou could see the invisible people because of her special constitution, but her abilities were limited. She couldn't react in time even if she could see them. There was still a huge gap between her and the professional killers. While Silin was dealing with the killers, he also took care of her.
The girl had grown up very quickly. Back in the Mist Bodhisattva Empire, she used to be very restrained. But now, she was becoming more and more open. She had learned a lot of skills from Shusag and Kari, and every experience was a rare opportunity for her and Tesoro to grow up. Silin could already imagine what they would be like when they grew up.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Every time a gunshot rang out, an assassin would fall. It might be one or two, or three or four.
Eudy and the others weren't the only ones surprised. The killers were just as shocked. It was already shocking enough that they could kill one person with a single gunshot, let alone several!
It was a small white gun with a hexagonal muzzle. But to the killers, every gunshot was like a horn calling for their lives.
Some assassins wanted to get rid of Celine, the most troublesome opponent, but they realized that they couldn't lock onto Celine at all. They couldn't keep up with Celine's movements either. Celine's speed was too fast, and it was very difficult to make a move on her, be it close combat or ranged combat.
Wielding the terrifying white gun in one hand and the thin blade in the other, Silin kept reaping the lives of the killers.
It had been almost three years since they last saw each other. This was the first time Kari and the others saw Silin fight after Silin left. Silin's ability had far exceeded their expectations. Such a person actually didn't join the A Team. If he had joined the A Team, he would definitely have a place there.
Huimao helped left and right, and when he saw that someone was in a difficult situation, he would go over to help. The speed of his claws was not inferior to Silin's, and because his body was small and gray, he didn't even make a sound when he ran. Two killers were caught off guard by Huimao's fatal claws.
The number of beasts increased. Not only Silin and the others, but the killers were also affected.
Silin took this opportunity to shoot the remaining killers dead. He turned to Huimao and said, "Wheeze, clear the way! Retreat! "
Silin didn't dare to let everyone fly in the air, because he wasn't sure if there were any killers or other hunters around who wanted to harm them. To be on the safe side, it was better to retreat through the forest.
A loud cry resounded through the forest. The birds in the sky that were approaching them were so startled that they lost their formation. Some of them even changed directions and flew in different directions.
Within the forest, the exotic beasts ahead seemed to have encountered something terrifying. They retreated one after another, opening up a path. Some of the exotic beasts directly fainted from the shockwave.
Shusag really wanted to cheer for the kitten that was responsible for all of this. "How domineering!" he thought to himself.
Now that the killers were no longer a threat and the alien beasts were no longer a hindrance, everyone was able to retreat a lot faster.
At the same time, the spaceplane was also flying toward them.
It wasn't until they entered the spaceplane that everyone relaxed a little. However, they didn't dare to be careless. They weren't out of danger yet.
"Moon, Sigma, bring those two to me," Silin said through the communicator.
After injecting Guidie Shiqi and Swallowtail with the antidote, Silin had rushed to Eudy's side instead of guarding them. If he hadn't, the situation would've been completely different.
Moon and Sigma had already arrived at where Guidie Shiqi and Swallowtail were, so Silin ordered them to bring those two to him.
Moon and Sigma carried one person each and flew toward the spaceplane. Ghost Butterfly Seventeen and Swallowtail didn't resist either. Their bodies hadn't fully recovered yet, and their best option was to follow Cillin's group. At the very least, they would be able to survive.
Once everyone was present, the spaceplane flew away from the hunting planet. Kari and the others couldn't help but feel sorry for the animals that they hadn't killed yet.
At this point, Xueqiu had returned to his harmless self and was rolling around with the Miantuan without the slightest hint of nervousness. Two slow-witted bastards.
Only after the spaceplane left the planet and entered the starship did everyone finally relax. The soreness in their muscles intensified. However, Kari and the others ignored the soreness and ran to the spaceplane's transport container to clean up the meat and the alien beasts' horns. Meanwhile, Sigma and Moon went to Swallowtail's little orchard to deal with the seeds.
Silin called Eudy and brought Guidie Shiqi and Swallowtail to a meeting room on the starship.
Silin looked at Guidie Shiqi and Swallowtail and asked, "Tell me, which side are they on?"
