Chapter 2679: Headquarters and High-Level Members

Four items appeared at the very top, and there were dozens of items below them. Overall, they were all quite good, but the first ten items were all very expensive, with none lower than 1000 points of World Reputation.

Originally, Su Xiao thought that his remaining 2646 points of World Reputation were already quite a lot, but now it seems that it is completely insufficient.

Su Xiao doesn't know what the 【Soul Crystal Core】 is yet, but as for the World Core (Fragment), he must find a way to get his hands on this thing.

The 【Uncrowned King】 title requires more than 3000 points of World Reputation. As a combat-type 7-star title, Su Xiao is prepared to exchange for this title. Even if his trigger probability in battle is very low, if he can possess 6 7-star titles, he can burn and refine an 8-star title. As for whether there is an 8-star title, that will have to be experimented with when the time comes.

Regarding the 【Hatred of the Sealed King (???)】, Su Xiao's attitude is completely "let it be." 57000 points of World Reputation is simply too expensive. He even suspects that the Void Tree brought this thing out just for him to look at.

Su Xiao watched the sky gradually brighten outside the window. It is time to head to the Watcher Guild headquarters. To deal with the Ancient God, the power there is necessary. At least he must let the Watcher Guild break the "Array Boundary." If the "Array Boundary" is not broken, it is impossible to fight that Ancient God at all.

After washing up, Su Xiao came to the warehouse on the first floor. The steam car was still there. Adley and others didn't dare to blow up the shelter. This was a wise choice. Once the shelter was destroyed, the Pest Control Company would find out immediately. By then, the entire Sodo City would be blocked, and the surrounding hunters and the Rhine Kingdom's military would conduct layer-by-layer investigations here.

Bubu Wang jumped into the driver's seat, Su Xiao was in the passenger seat. Although this position is not safe, Amu was in the back seat. Fortunately, Ta Balder was not there; otherwise, the steam car would have been squeezed out of shape.

The steam car drove out of the slums in a wild posture. Before long, it left Sodo City and headed straight for the location of the Watcher Guild headquarters. The location of the headquarters is a bit special. There are no civilians living within 20 kilometers of it. This was caused by attacks from large groups of Dark Demons.

After leaving Sodo City and driving through a large wilderness, a very wide gravel road appeared in front. Many warning signs were erected on the side of the road. This is not only a restricted area of the Rhine Kingdom but also marked as a dangerous goods storage point.

Driving along the gravel road, in less than two hours, a building that was dozens of meters high appeared in front. This building covers a large area and is similar to the Baroque architectural style.

The Watcher Guild headquarters has arrived. The surrounding defense seems lax, but there are more than 300 hunters stationed here permanently. Once attacked, all surrounding hunters will receive a signal and return at full speed. Not only that, the Rhine Kingdom will also send troops to arrive quickly for support.

Although Su Xiao is a God Hunter, no one came to greet him in front of the Watcher Guild headquarters because there is no clear superior-subordinate relationship between hunters and the high-level members of the Watcher Guild.

The high-level members of the Watcher Guild are responsible for handling relations with various countries, fund management, etc., while hunters are dedicated to hunting Dark Demons and Ghosts, and they don't care about anything else.

The steam car parked on the open space in front of the headquarters. Su Xiao walked up the steps and entered the main entrance of the headquarters before long.

The lobby on the first floor of the headquarters is very spacious. A row of display windows on the left side are the material collection point, hunter registration point, and extraordinary event reporting point. At this time, several hunters are coming to resupply, looking like they are going to deal with first-class extraordinary events.

There are many cracks on the marble floor. This shows that the headquarters is not a completely safe place. Some Dark Demons who are crazy to the point of hysteria will come to attack here, basically all coming to send their heads. Only at the level of Hao Gui could they possibly fight into the main hall.

"Mr. Kuku Lin, the four guardians are already waiting for you in the conference room, including Mr. Ta Balder. Everyone involved in this matter has basically arrived."

A woman wearing a white ID badge, missing one eye, and with four ugly scars on her face spoke softly. From her eyebrows, one could see that she was once a beauty, a beauty with a gentle temperament. She is just an ordinary person, a survivor whose whole family died in an extraordinary event. After becoming homeless, she was taken in by the Watcher Guild to be logistics personnel.

Led by the female staff member, Su Xiao went up the stairs to the fifth floor, pushed the door, and walked into a conference room.

The conference room was almost full of people, and the smell of tobacco and wine permeated the room. The high-level members of the Watcher Guild, that is, the guardians, are not all simple and plain. They are also human and hope to enjoy themselves. They all live today without knowing if they will see tomorrow. Dark Demons and Ghosts all hate these guardians very much.

"Kuku Lin, you're too slow."

A burly man with a beard beside the circular conference table spoke. His laughter was exceptionally hearty, and he held a cigar between his fingertips. Although he was only in his early forties, his hair had turned mostly white. This is one of the high-level members of the Watcher Guild.

"Your voice is too loud. You think Kuku Lin enjoys himself every day like you, with countless Dark Demons waiting for him to kill."

A man whose aura was like a cobra spoke. Although he was just an ordinary person, he gave people a cold feeling. Even if a senior hunter looked at him, they would feel uncomfortable. This is aura.

"It's good to be able to come back alive."

An old man who seemed to be on the verge of dying at any time spoke with a voice like sandpaper rubbing. He was covered in transparent tubes, and behind his seat was life-support equipment, belonging to the type that would die if the tube was pulled out.

This old man is named Commons, and he has lived for 219 years. His brain is priceless. All the secrets of the Watcher Guild, combat knowledge records, weapon structure blueprints, etc., are all recorded in his mind. He is a living library. As long as his breathing or heartbeat stops, his head will explode instantly.

"Jin Se was killed last night."

A noble lady beside the conference table spoke. She held a slender cigarette holder between her fingers, with a black lady's cigarette inserted into it. As the blue smoke drifted up, a strange fragrance permeated.

The four high-level members of the Watcher Guild have different auras and are responsible for different fields.

The heroic bearded man is named Ge, responsible for finance.

The man like a cobra, no one knows his real name, everyone calls him Viper. He is a super black-bellied man, responsible for personnel mobilization.

The old man is the **Library Commons. His living itself is a kind of value.

The lady's name is also unknown. It is said that her fiancé was once a hereditary duke, but because the lady's soul is special, it emits a fragrance that only Dark Demons and Ghosts can smell, causing her whole family to die, and her fiancé also died protecting her.

After she joined the Watcher Guild, everyone called her Duchess, but because she personally disliked this title, which often reminded her of her late husband, everyone changed it to Lady Fragrance.

Please don't have any fantasies about her because of the title Lady Fragrance. There was an out-of-control old hunter who kidnapped Lady Fragrance, and the purpose was obvious. As a result, the old hunter was poisoned to death halfway. In daily life, accidentally touching her could lead to poisoning. Lady Fragrance is waiting, waiting for the day she is devoured by a Dark Demon, to poison that Dark Demon to death.

Lady Fragrance is responsible for diplomacy, as well as the preparation of supply potions, etc. Her assistant is the Bird-Beak Doctor. This is a famous doctor in the East Valley Federation, not for his good name, but for his evil name.

Ge, Viper, Commons, Lady Fragrance—the four high-level members of the Watcher Guild, not one of them looks normal. Or rather, normal people cannot deal with Dark Demons. Every decision they make is important, and they all have to face many choices and pressures. There are too many things to consider. As for the last person, Jin Se, he died last night, dying in a near-suicidal attack by Ghosts.

As for the others in the conference room, there are too many people, all responsible for different duties. With them, the Watcher Guild can operate normally.

Su Xiao sat in an empty seat and looked around at the five people sitting there. In this conference room, only eight people are qualified to sit, two of whom have passed away, both recent events.

"Since Kuku Lin has arrived, then everyone be quiet. Kuku Lin, Ta Balder said you have a perfect plan. If the situation permits, you might as well say it out, and we will discuss it together."

The bearded Ge threw a cigar. After Su Xiao caught it, he stood this cigar on the conference table in front of him.

"Baha."

Just as Su Xiao finished speaking, Baha landed on the conference table and said:

"Cough~, everyone, I'll make a long story short. Let's start with what an Ancient God is. If you leave an Ancient God alone, you might not even see tomorrow morning's sun. This is not a metaphor, but a physical fact. Where there is an Ancient God, bathing in sunlight is a luxury. The world is dim. The more you know, the more miserable the outcome." ===== CHAPTER 2680 =====
