Chapter 2655: Relics of Hunters

~10 min read 1,912 words

Su Xiao was about to push the wooden wheelchair out of the fortune-telling house when female hunter · Tiffany spoke.

"That bottle."

"Hmm?"

"Use that big bottle to hold me."

Hearing this, Su Xiao felt it was a good method. He took down a cylindrical glass bottle nearly thirty centimeters thick from the wooden cabinet. Just after opening the seal, female hunter · Tiffany liquidized, leaving only a set of clothes on the wooden wheelchair.

The liquidized Tiffany entered the glass bottle. Su Xiao covered the bottle tightly, carried the bottled female hunter · Tiffany in one hand, and the wooden box in the other, and walked out of the fortune-telling house.

The street was empty. It was the Pest Control Company who rushed over to carry out a forced evacuation. They were very experienced in this aspect. They would spray a gas that made people extremely disgusted but harmless. Civilians who could hold on for more than 3 seconds in this gas and did not flee outward were all strong-willed, and there was no problem with participating in the reserve hunter assessment.

"Boss, what's in this bottle?"

"Female hunter."

"Are female hunters bottled now? Really advanced."

Baha, with two small knives stuck in its body, spoke. Having the energy to say sassy words meant that it was not seriously injured.

"That fat clown, I must kill him next time. He actually used a paper fire to burn my butt."

Mentioning the battle just now, Baha was very angry. When it fought the fat clown, the other party actually stuck out its butt, and then used a paper fire to light its butt, like a living flamethrower, which could be called a double attack on the body and spirit.

Getting on the steam car, Xiang Bubu Wang drove back to the Shelter.

At 9:00 PM, Su Xiao returned to the Shelter in the slum. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a man in a black windbreaker wearing a crow mask sitting in the corner. This was an old hunter who came to the Shelter for supplies.

"Manager."

The black-clad old hunter spoke. The body under his clothes was trembling imperceptibly.

"Please help me, contact... the Guild, let Hunter · Alexia come to 'Sodo City', I am about to... lose control, I hope I can finally, die in... her hands."

The black-clad old hunter barely finished this sentence. This old hunter who had hunted for 34 years was about to lose control. Being endowed with "sharp claws" and "sharp fangs" was destined to be this result.

"Where is the location."

"Outside the city... the ancient castle, there, it is more convenient... to burn my corpse. I am... a hunter, I cannot affect... civilians. The heart fire is not extinguished, and dawn will surely come."

The black-clad old hunter spoke stumbling in the first half of the sentence, but the last sentence "The heart fire is not extinguished, and dawn will surely come" was spoken very fluently. This was a sentence engraved in the deepest part of his soul and was his belief.

Ding-a-ling~

The doorbell rang, and the black-clad old hunter pushed the door and left.

Su Xiao walked into the semicircular wooden table, dialed a number on the old-fashioned phone, and contacted the Watcher Guild.

After doing all this, Su Xiao tapped the cylindrical glass bottle on the table with his finger.

"Start, I want to know all the information in the Gluttonous Dark Demon's memory."

"Really know how to order people around, I'm not your subordinate."

Tiffany's voice came from the glass bottle.

"..."

"Just kidding, I'm also someone whose heart fire is not extinguished."

Tiffany released a unique fluctuation, wrapping the head of the Gluttonous Dark Demon in the wooden box.

"It will take at least half an hour, this Dark Demon's memory is very chaotic."

Tiffany began to strip the memory in the Gluttonous Dark Demon's head. This process was like screening film.

In less than half an hour, Tiffany finished stripping the memory. The liquidized her spread out from the opened bottle mouth. After the upper half of her body was manifested, she stretched, seemingly forgetting that her entire upper body only had a silver chain ornament on her left hand.

"There is not much useful information, I will explain it briefly."

According to Tiffany's description, Su Xiao knew why the Gluttonous Dark Demon attacked the major's family. The reason was the same as he expected. The other party wanted to obtain a certain item. That thing was the relic of the major's grandfather, a "Silver Medal" awarded by the Rhine Kingdom, which was a commendation for honor.

It looked like this on the surface, but in fact, inside the Silver Medal, a hunter's identity plate was wrapped. That identity plate was black-gold, and the major's grandfather was once a very powerful hunter, one of the four strongest in that generation of hunters. This also explained why the major could rise to power and be promoted all the way.

As for the person who found the Gluttonous Dark Demon, it was Hao Gui. The negotiation process between the two sides went very smoothly. The Gluttonous Dark Demon worshipped Hao Gui and readily agreed to Hao Gui's request.

There was little information. Su Xiao took off the hunter plate on his neck. The material of this thing was very special, but it was not special to the point of being outrageous. It was just not easy to damage.

Compared to the material, Su Xiao cared more about the meaning represented by the major's grandfather's hunter plate. The major's grandfather was someone who had an influence on an era. The relic left by the other party would definitely be endowed with extraordinary meaning by this world.

The core of this world was gradually merging with this world, and not only that, the Dark Prison was also merging with this world. Su Xiao absolutely did not believe that this was a coincidence.

Originally, the fusion of the World Core and this world was a reversible process, but if a transcendent place like the Dark Prison was involved, the three merged together, then this process became irreversible. It must first interrupt the fusion of the Dark Prison and this world before it could strip the core from this world.

Assuming the "World Core" and the "Dark Prison" were seen as two independent individuals, their fusion speed with this world was likely different. The fusion speed of the World Core was likely faster than that of the Dark Prison.

If the World Core fused first, then this world would collapse, but if the Dark Prison fused first, then this world might become a huge Dark Prison.

Su Xiao felt that this was likely the purpose of that unknown force. They wanted to turn this world into a Dark Prison, so that the Dark Prison would become more perfect and more suitable for Dark Demons and Phantoms to live in.

As for the "Hunter Plate," this was interesting. The life of every hunter was enough to write a book. The "Hunter Plate" left after their death, to a certain extent, was a representative event of this world, which would be endowed with different meanings by this world, that is, it contained a small amount of "World Power" inside, and many pieces of equipment were formed in this way.

In this world, the population that could master transcendence was too small. Either they were hunters, or they were Dark Demons or Phantoms. Only hunters would leave "Hunter Plates." Dark Demons and Phantoms had no such thing as relics at all.

The more powerful the hunter, the greater the influence on the world, and the more "World Power" there would be in the "Hunter Plate." This was an inevitable result.

If the World Power in these "Hunter Plates" was extracted and used to accelerate the fusion of the Dark Prison and this world, then would the fusion speed of the Dark Prison exceed that of the World Core? Finally, let this world turn into a huge Dark Prison.

Once this world became a huge Dark Prison, then Dark Demons and Phantoms would become the new masters of this world. The current Dark Prison should be very barren, but after merging with this world, the new huge Dark Prison would undergo earth-shaking changes.

Simply put, that unknown force was searching for the relics of hunters, and through the World Power in these relics, accelerating the fusion of the Dark Prison and this world.

Su Xiao felt that he had already grasped a very important link. The ambition of that unknown organization was very big. Destroying the Rhine Kingdom? That was too trivial. That force wanted everything, everything in this world.

Su Xiao picked up the phone on the table and dialed the Watcher Guild's number again. After connecting, he said: "I am the manager of the Sodo City Shelter."

"Hello, Mr. Kuku Lin."

"I have a hobby recently."

Su Xiao wanted to determine one thing, which was whether there was a problem within the Watcher Guild.

"You say, we will try our best to satisfy you."

"I want the identity plates of those deceased hunters."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, the woman on the phone was silent for more than ten seconds before speaking.

"This... Mr. Kuku Lin, those relics are very important to the relatives of the hunters, although they don't know that those are identity plates, but those are relics. We have no way to satisfy your request. I will convey it to my superiors, but you should be prepared to gain nothing. I wish you a good night and a good dream."

"Hmm."

Su Xiao hung up the phone and sat on the chair waiting. That was, after more than ten minutes, the phone rang. After picking it up, it was still that female voice.

"Mr. Kuku Lin, there is a very unfortunate news. The storage warehouse where the identity plates of deceased hunters were kept... was stolen. All identity plates left by hunters without relatives were lost.

We will collect the identity plates scattered among the people as soon as possible. By tomorrow morning at the latest, the first batch will be sent to the Shelter where you are. Please keep these identity plates properly. These identity plates are the same as your identity plate, they are the most unique..."

Su Xiao listened to the other party narrate for a few minutes before hanging up the phone. His guess was verified. Dark Demons and Phantoms were indeed collecting hunter plates, that is, "relics."

Among these relics that had not been stolen yet, many were left by hunters in the strongest echelon. The relic of the major's grandfather was taken, which meant that Dark Demons and Phantoms had already proceeded to the final link.

The response method Su Xiao came up with was very simple, which was to get all the remaining relics, and then wait for the Dark Demons and Phantoms to come to the door in the Shelter. Kill as many as come.

But before that, Su Xiao had to summon Hunting Tide first. His team had a tank (Amu), an assassination type (Baha), and an amateur healing type (Xiang Bubu). He was just missing a powerful long-range type. Given the powerful degree of Hunting Tide shooting Amu into autism with a few arrows, it would be very good for her to temporarily fill this vacancy. ===== CHAPTER 2656 =====
