Following J. Pearlman, Kieran entered Huke Alley.
It was located in the north of the big city, a colorful alley made up of gravel roads and short houses. It looked like a small town from a fairytale, but it wasn't as prosperous as those fairytale towns. Quite the opposite, a heavy killing aura lingered in the area.
Kieran sensed more than one gaze on him.
No malicious intent, but vigilance.
Based on the gazes and presence, Kieran could tell there were at least 40 hidden sentries in Huke Alley.
Based on the information he got about Freedom Alliance, this should be all the outer members of Freedom Alliance.
On top of that, compared to the fear of the official members, the outer members of Freedom Alliance were still confident in their organization.
It was inevitable!
A bunch of rabbits would be shocked when they saw a lion.
As for a lion?
The rabbits never understood the helplessness and fear of a lion facing a gun.
Although they would face a gun as well.
But …
What difference did it make after the bang?
Nothing.
A single bullet didn't just nullify the lion's sharp fangs, it also nullified their nimble speed.
It was just that the former had a taste of how scary it was, the latter were still ignorant.
Kieran shook his head silently.
It was hard for him to imagine how the outer members would react when they realized the truth.
Maybe they would collapse and scatter?
"No!
It's not a maybe, it's a must!
"If I were that guy, I'd definitely launch a frontal assault and let these outer members of the Freedom Alliance know what reality is!"
Kieran couldn't help but frown as the thought crossed his mind.
He realized that the 'hunter' hiding in the dark knew more about the Freedom Alliance than he imagined.
Similarly, the rumored Amelia was even more 'useless' than what the rumors said.
"Boss Amilian was forced to do this.
That Predator came and went like a shadow, if we don't set up a large area of defense, it's useless. "
J. Pearlman seemed to have noticed Kieran's thoughts, so he quickly explained on behalf of his leader.
Kieran nodded without commenting.
He wouldn't deny what J. Pearlman said.
Because it was the truth.
But he wouldn't change his opinion of Amilian either.
Because this was also the truth.
And this evaluation was confirmed once again when he met Amilia.
In the other's room, Amelia was wearing a full set of Knight armor. The armor was shiny, sturdy, and did not seem to be of a low level, just like the longsword at his waist and the cloak behind him.
"Hello, Hon. 2567."
"I'm sorry, but the Freedom Alliance is currently in an extremely dangerous situation. I can't go to the Harvest Tavern directly, but J. Perelman can represent me."
"His promise is as valid as mine."
"Similarly, if you don't mind, I would like to tell you the whole process of what happened."
The other party welcomed Kieran warmly.
If these words were spoken in Huke Alley and not in the man's room, Kieran might have accepted it a little, but in a different place, what Kieran saw was … cowardice!
That's right!
It was cowardice!
It wasn't just the other official members of Freedom Alliance who were cowardly, even the boss of Freedom Alliance in name was cowardly.
Just look at how the man was fully armed in his own room.
There was a weapon and armor rack on the side of the room, and based on the wear and tear on the rack, the weapon and armor should have been left there for a long time, not worn on his body.
No doubt the mysterious Hunter struck fear into the man's heart. Even in his own room, the man would need a weapon and armor to feel at ease.
As for the hidden sentries in Huke Alley that seemed to be monitoring the surroundings?
Perhaps …
It was more of a protection than a surveillance.
"Em."
Kieran replied calmly after he understood the situation in an instant.
Kieran looked down on such cowards.
You mean Starbeck?
Starbeck was different.
At least, Starbeck knew he couldn't lead any organization or team due to his cowardice. He behaved himself in the big city and even when he entered the dungeon world, he tried his best to pass the leadership to the right person. He wasn't like the man in front of him, a coward who insisted on giving orders.
Kieran couldn't imagine how a coward like Starbeck managed to get into the Advanced Ranks.
Did he rely on the support of his team?
Kieran wondered.
While Kieran was guessing, Amilian started to explain after Kieran replied. It was exactly the same as what J.Pearlman said before.
Other than a little more embellishing of his words and highlighting his personal leadership, there was no difference in essence.
"It's my fault for underestimating that bastard's strength, causing Gary to meet with misfortune. If I have another chance, I will …"
"Can I have a look at the place where Gary was attacked?"
Kieran interrupted Amilian's hypothesis and asked.
"Of course!
J.Pearlman will bring you there. "
Amelia nodded and passed the mission to J. Perelman again.
It seemed like Amilian had no intention of leaving his room.
Kieran had expected it.
J.Pearlman, on the other hand, was a little embarrassed.
"Boss Amilian wasn't like this before.
It's just that too many things have happened recently, causing him to change a little … "
"People change, don't they?"
J.Pearlman wanted to explain to Kieran, so that Kieran could understand Amilian's true nature, but when he reached the end of his explanation, even J.Pearlman couldn't continue.
He ended his explanation by muttering to himself.
However, Kieran seemed to be interested.
"You said Amilian wasn't like this before?"
Kieran asked.
"Em.
Boss Amilian wasn't like this before. He wasn't just brave and fearless, he was warm, kind, and didn't put on airs. "
"The reason why I joined Freedom Alliance was because of Boss Amilian's help."
"In fact, most of the people in the organization are like that."
"But …"
"Things have changed recently."
"Especially after the Hunter appeared, Boss Amilian seems to have changed into a different person. He's not just timid, sensitive, but also arrogant."
"A lot of his comrades said this is Boss Amilian's true nature."
"Gary and Boss Amilian had an argument before, and in the end, they parted on bad terms."
J.Pearlman shook his head.
"Oh?"
"Argument?"
Kieran looked at J.Pearlman with an interested gaze.
"That won't happen!
Boss Amilian might have changed a little, but his bottom line won't! "
J.Pearlman obviously knew what Kieran wanted to ask, so he waved his hand and diverted the topic. He pointed at the street in front and said, "This is where Gary was killed."
Kieran didn't press the question.
He glanced at the direction where J.Pearlman pointed.
