There were indeed four Brain Eater Demon Bugs inside the Void Storm Cavern.
Poison Bee already knew this, and he also saw the four layers of [Deprivation] on Gu Qing Shan's body.
The Brain Eater Demon Bugs could only use this ability on a single person.
In other words, now was the best time — — -
To kill the four Demon Bugs.
So Poison Bee went.
He was an Unlivable rank Hitman, so he was very confident in his abilities.
He was dead.
In front of the 7th warp gate, the Hitmen stared at the jet-black card in the staff member's hand, speechless.
This was a Life and Death detection card, capable of sensing the life force of the person carrying out the mission.
The card was originally pure white, once it turned black, it represented death.
An Unlivable rank Hitman was already an extremely powerful existence, each of them represented the true strength of the Hitman Guild.
"The situation is very serious, I have to report this to the Guild right away" Qin said with a pale expression.
She glanced at Gu Qing Shan and sent her voice: "It will be a Titled rank Hitman, be careful"
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
Qin waved her hand, summoning a row of names from the void of space.
Qin pointed at a certain name and said: "Intelligence team leader, I'm Qin, something happened here"
First came a female scream and laughter, followed by a lazy male voice: "What's the situation?"
Qin blushed a bit, then braced herself and said: "The '3 +' mission, the Brain Eater Demon Bug mission, has already lost two 'Sealed' Hitmen and one 'Unlivable' Hitman, only one 'Sealed' Hitman managed to escape by luck"
The voice on the other side suddenly became louder: "What!?"
The void of space flashed.
A topless black-haired man appeared in front of the 7th warp gate.
He was extremely beautiful, even a bit bewitching. His body wasn't too muscular, but it was well-proportioned. He wore a pair of black pants, black leather shoes, as well as a slender rapier on his waist.
When he appeared, he was holding a bottle of liquor in one hand, a verdant stalk of grass in the corner of his mouth, and a few faint lip marks on his cheeks.
Based on his appearance and the woman's laughter just now, it was obvious that he was up to no good and had rushed over after receiving the news.
The pretty man realized that everyone was looking at him, so he took out a black wide-brimmed hat and put it on his head, pressing it down to cover the kiss marks on his face.
"Tell me the details," he said.
"Yes, sir Crow" Qin respectfully replied.
She began to describe the entire process.
After listening for a while, the pretty boy turned to look at Gu Qing Shan.
"To be able to escape from the fourth stage of 'Deprivation' … Someone, let me take a look at the video recording from before," he said.
A staff member tossed out a card.
The card turned into a projection in midair, showing the scene of Gu Qing Shan accepting the mission and leaving.
Then, Jean received a call for help, and Poison Bee rushed over.
Venomous Bee was not in a hurry to save Qin. Instead, he started a verbal conflict with Qin.
As the mist appeared, Gu Qing Shan appeared.
The two of them were talking.
Poison Bee left.
Dead.
The pretty boy slightly nodded, then looked at Gu Qing Shan: "You have a Mystery Spatial technique, no wonder you were able to escape, now I understand why the old man personally gave you a codename"
He drew the thin rapier at his waist and muttered: "The Void Storm Cavern, the Brain Eater Demon Bug should be nearby, I'll go take a look …"
Saying so, he walked towards the warp gate.
"You don't need to go" Gu Qing Shan abruptly said.
— — having reached Sumeru Lord realm and having to deal with monsters who were countless times stronger than he was, Gu Qing Shan's insight had already been honed.
He only needed a single glance to know how powerful this pretty boy was.
None of the Hitmen here were as strong as this pretty boy.
But compared to the monster that appeared in the Void Storm Cavern, both the pretty boy and Gu Qing Shan were still far from being able to match up to him.
There would only be a single outcome if they went.
Death.
This wasn't just his insight, this was the feeling and perception that Gu Qing Shan had trained while facing his enemies.
Of course, Gu Qing Shan was willing to let Poison Bee die, but he wasn't willing to harm unrelated people.
— — especially since he could already see that outcome.
The pretty boy's body stopped.
Everyone's gaze became subtle.
As soon as Gu Qing Shan said that, everyone had already guessed that he was feeling guilty.
Perhaps he was the one who set up Poison Bee.
Otherwise, why didn't he let Sir Crow investigate the scene?
Sure enough, the Fear Fiend is still a fiend that likes to harm people …
"I don't need to go … why?" the pretty boy turned around and stared at Gu Qing Shan.
"Four demon bugs, it's too dangerous" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"You think I'd be afraid of those things?" the pretty boy quickly asked.
"Not really, when I was fighting them, I felt a bit panicked" Gu Qing Shan slowly replied.
"Panicked because of these four insects?"
"No, I'm guessing it's something else"
The pretty boy was a bit surprised, thought for a bit, then asked: "In battle, have you always trusted this natural instinct of yours?"
"It's not natural, it's trained" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"How do you train?"
"I've stayed at the edge of death too many times, so I've gotten used to this instinct"
"So that's how it is, this might sound a bit strange, but coincidentally, I'm also an expert in communicating with death"
The pretty boy wielded his rapier and circled around Gu Qing Shan.
"The presence of death, in my name, please let me see your bond with this person" he muttered.
A black shadow flew out from the pretty boy's body, touched Gu Qing Shan's body, then turned into a lingering halo of light.
The black halo enveloped Gu Qing Shan's body for a long time, unwilling to leave.
"… You are the feeder of the Law of Death … the Law is always waiting for you to create death …"
The pretty boy muttered.
He put his rapier away, casually took out two tall glasses from the void of space, filled them up, then gave one to Gu Qing Shan while holding the other himself.
"Cheers" the pretty boy declared.
"For what?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The pretty boy lowered his voice and whispered: "I've always found Poison Bee an eyesore, but the Guild strictly forbids infighting … how lucky, he died as soon as he stepped out today"
Although this man called Crow had lowered his voice, who here was a normal person?
Everyone heard his words loud and clear.
"Ahahahaha, an Assassin like Poison Bee is dead, what a great loss to our Hitman Guild"
The pretty boy laughed loudly, then downed the glass in one gulp.
Everyone was speechless.
Gu Qing Shan raised the glass and took a sip.
This liquor is quite good.
He raised the glass again and downed it.
Qin hurriedly asked: "Sir Crow, how exactly are we going to deal with this?"
The pretty boy stopped laughing and replied: "I'm guessing that the person who issued the mission will soon find out about our situation here. If he's willing to increase the price, we'll continue to post this mission, but adjust it to a level that only Titled Hitmen can accept — — - but remember, no one is allowed to accept this mission"
"That Poison Bee …"
"Serves him right for being unlucky."
"Understood"
After giving his orders, the pretty boy patted Gu Qing Shan's shoulder and said: "Let's have a drink another day"
"Alright" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The pretty boy's figure disappeared into the void of space, disappearing without a trace.
This matter was concluded.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, the Hitmen slowly dispersed.
Melody glanced at Gu Qing Shan with a complicated expression and muttered: "Fiend, it was you who killed Poison Bee"
Gu Qing Shan didn't deny it and asked: "Do you want to avenge him?"
Melody shook his head: "I won't avenge him, but if I run into you during a large-scale joint Guild mission, no Hitman would trust you again"
"They have that right, and I believe that Crow isn't one of them" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Melody scoffed, turned around, and left.
Gu Qing Shan waited for a while longer until all the Hitmen had left before he asked: "Qin, the reason why I failed this mission was because I received incorrect information. Just look, even a powerful Hitman like Poison Bee died, I was already lucky enough to escape, so — — -"
He smiled and asked: "Can this failure be discounted?"
Qin shook her head: "I'm sorry, a failure is a failure. If you want to advance to Unsolvable rank, you'll have to complete 5 more consecutive 3-point missions"
Seeing the disappointed expression on Gu Qing Shan's face, she added: "However, the points you earned from the previous missions won't be deducted, you can use them to exchange for various items"
"Then give me more missions" Gu Qing Shan said.
"That's impossible, take a look at yourself" Qin pointed around his body.
Gu Qing Shan looked around, only to see that the four layers of [Deprive] power were still present, giving off a colorful glow.
"Ah, when will this thing disappear?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"If those four Brain Eater Demon Bugs don't retract their abilities, it'll take at least a day" Qin replied.
Her expression suddenly turned serious: "You've now lost all four of your combat abilities, make sure to be careful and don't leave the Guild"
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
I originally wanted to advance as soon as possible so that I could accept the Wraith realm mission, but it seems I'll have to wait for another day.
"Alright, I'll go back to the lounge to sleep for the day, see you tomorrow"
"Hm, see you tomorrow"
As Gu Qing Shan was about to leave, he suddenly heard Qin exclaim in surprise.
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"It's nothing … for the previous Brain Eater Demon Bug mission, I was about to contact the client to ask if they wanted to increase the price — — but the client didn't wait for me to say anything and directly increased the reward by 30 times" Qin said in confusion.
"30 times" Gu Qing Shan repeated.
"That's right, 30 times, just enough to hire a Titled Hitman, seems like I'll have to increase this mission's rank to 10 right away …"
While saying so, Qin began to operate the mission UI in the void of space.
— — -level 10 to 12 missions were the missions that a Titled Hitman could accept.
After staying silent for a bit, Gu Qing Shan turned around and quickly left.
He didn't return to the lounge and instead went straight to the intelligence department.
"I want to exchange some information" he told the staff.
After verifying his badge, the staff gave him a scepter and led him into a small room.
"You only need to use telepathy to transmit the information you want to the scepter, it will respond accordingly" the staff explained.
"Thank you" Gu Qing Shan said.
The staff closed the door behind him and left.
Gu Qing Shan held the scepter, silently thinking about the appearance of the monster in the Void Storm Cavern.
Six long, sharp legs, a muscular body, a head full of long, horn-like hair, humanoid appearance.
"Tell me, what is this?"
Gu Qing Shan sent telepathy to the scepter.
Very quickly, a thought was transmitted from the scepter:
