Chapter 2687: Criminals
The scrapped steam car was smoking. The battle came suddenly and ended quickly. The Sanctuary Adventure Group was not wiped out. The Qiyuezhe responsible for attacking Amu, Baha, and the 15 old hunters had strategically retreated because their leader was dead.
After the alien space disappeared, Su Xiao looked at the wilderness around him. Scarlet micro-light flickered in the weeds. There were 9 scarlet cards in total.
Regarding this attack, Su Xiao felt a bit strange. Adley and others ambushed in the alien space and had long arranged a formation. That was a siege formation dominated by suppression.
If it were against God Hunter Ta Balder or Hyena-Fox Yas, this formation would be very effective, especially against Hyena-Fox Yas, who is famous for powerful instantaneous destructive power. Facing this kind of siege with triple domain suppression, he would drink hatred on the spot after a few minutes of fighting.
It can be said that the disguise function played a key role in this battle. In the cognition of Adley and others, Su Xiao is a God Hunter of this world. In the cognition of those people, they don't worry about how to deal with Su Xiao, but care more about how to make Su Xiao alone. Besieging boss units is something the Sanctuary Adventure Group may have experienced many times.
The reason Su Xiao felt strange was Adley's source of intelligence.
There are only two hostile factions at the moment: one is Douglas. If he is not dead, he may gather Dark Demons and Ghosts, and the other is the Ancient God faction.
Su Xiao feels that Adley highly likely joined the Ancient God faction. Soul of the Ancient God faction is very happy to see the current situation. With Soul's style of doing things, he might even mislead Adley into launching an attack and complete something in the process.
Thinking of this, Su Xiao looked at Sodo City in the distance. Something might have already happened there. Soul will not miss the opportunity at the moment. Ta Balder has to stay at the Watcher Guild headquarters. He was just dragged by Adley and others.
"Baha, return to Sodo City at the fastest speed."
"Understood."
Baha disappeared and began to perform space penetration, which was about five minutes, and Baha returned.
"Boss, Viper was attacked, lost an arm, and almost had his head bitten off by a Dark Demon. The wealthy businessman he supported died miserably, the celebration venue was blown up by more than half, and many civilians died. The Rhine Kingdom blocked the news."
"Is that so."
Su Xiao looked at a scarlet card in his hand. This was Adley's scarlet card. Clearly, Adley was pitted by Soul. Adley dared to attack like this, highly likely because he obtained fake intelligence provided by Soul.
If Su Xiao didn't guess wrong, this fake intelligence was his data, a piece of data similar to a normal God Hunter. It was precisely because of this that Adley dared to come and ambush. Apocalypse's adventure group encountered a cunning guy like Soul and was pitted very miserably.
The situation at the moment is within the acceptable range. Viper's plan will be affected, but with Viper's ruthless character, he will highly likely block the news and continue to hold the celebration. Even so, the scale of the celebration will be affected.
Su Xiao is not prepared to help Viper. If he can't even withstand this degree of change, then finding the Son of the World is just a pipe dream.
Of the 15 old hunters responsible for the escort mission this time, 6 died. The attack came too suddenly.
What cannot be denied is that the Sanctuary Adventure Group has experience in ambushes, but the overall strength is not very good. The combat power of the team members is in the middle and lower levels. If it weren't for the large number of people, Su Xiao wouldn't even be prepared to use Dead Silence Descent. As for the Green Shadow King, he didn't use it from beginning to end.
Boarding a steam car, Su Xiao leaned on the back seat. Adley sent a big gift this time, 20% of the team materials of a Tier 7 adventure group. The gold content can be imagined. More importantly, this is Apocalypse Paradise's adventure group, very rich.
Team materials need to be collected after returning to the Samsara Paradise. Su Xiao opened the adventure group list to check the situation of the Dawn Adventure Group.
Dawn Adventure Group is an SS-level single-person adventure group. It is still 8000 points of team experience away from impacting the SSS-level. Su Xiao has two choices at the moment: accumulate, or convert 42,000 points of team experience into 42 team skill points, and upgrade "Team Skill 1: Radiant Team" to a super-high level, thereby improving the team's comprehensive combat power.
This is the closest time to an SSS-level adventure group. Su Xiao decided to accumulate first. Changing orders in the morning and changing them in the evening is not a good habit. If he doesn't grasp this opportunity, it's really uncertain whether there will be a possibility of impacting an SSS-level adventure group in the future.
Whether one can obtain adventure group experience, there is a not-small luck component in it. Of course, one's own strength is more important.
The scenery outside the car window flew by. When the steam car stopped on the open space in front of the headquarters, Lady Fragrance had been waiting here for a long time.
"Were you ambushed?"
Lady Fragrance's smiling face was like a flower. This is clearly a vengeful woman. After all, she was just "disliked" by Su Xiao this morning. For Lady Fragrance, who is over 30 and whose female charm is fully mature, this cannot be tolerated.
"Hmm."
"You were actually injured. The Bird-Beak Doctor just returned to headquarters. Let him treat you."
"..."
"Viper sent a message that he will continue to hold the celebration. The only good news now is that there is no need to wait until 10:00 PM. Around 8:00 PM, those seven criminals will arrive. The only problem is that no one can restrain them. At least I can't do it. They are all unruly guys."
Lady Fragrance, with a gloomy tone, leaned against the car door. The fragrance on her body would make people drowsy. This is not an illusion. The perfume Lady Fragrance sprayed today is the drowsy type. If she is in a very bad mood, it is a lethal perfume. Anyone who dares to sink into her arms and take a deep breath will die on the spot.
"If you can't restrain them, just slaughter them and change to another batch."
Su Xiao walked toward the main entrance of the headquarters. Hearing his words, the corner of Lady Fragrance's mouth curled up. She was looking forward to the meeting tonight.
Time passed quickly. Before he knew it, it was 7:30 PM. On the fifth floor of the headquarters, in a conference room, the lights were on, illuminating every corner of the room. The windows were sealed with metal bars.
Around the rectangular dining table sat seven men wearing gray clothes. They sat on heavy metal chairs. Each metal chair was connected to the ground, and the hands of these seven people were bound to the armrests of the chairs.
"Sweetheart, untie my shackles, I'm starving."
A criminal bound to a metal chair spoke. His biggest feature was that he was ugly. On that willful face, there was a big mouth. What was even more eye-catching was that his tongue was twice as wide as a normal person's and more than three times as long. At this time, he was licking his own eyeballs with his tongue.
This criminal is named Big Mouth Kit. Among the group of criminals, his comprehensive ability ranks in the middle level.
"Someone will help you untie the shackles, but it won't be me."
Amia, sitting in front of the wall, spoke. Because of her previous performance, she had been appointed as the representative of the Rhine Kingdom in this event, and her status had risen. However, her high heels and black silk attracted Big Mouth Kit's attention. The other party was staring at her, and that gaze made her disgusted.
"Then don't ever let me go, otherwise you will be in trouble."
"Shut your big mouth, the hunters are outside the door."
Amia glanced at Big Mouth Kit, her ice-beauty temperament fully displayed.
"Hunters? I'm very fast. Before they come in, it might already be over. Hehehe... Hahahaha."
Big Mouth Kit laughed until he leaned forward and backward. Hearing his words, Amia, who was sitting with her legs crossed, frowned, her eyes full of disgust.
"Silence."
A voice full of pauses came. It was another criminal who spoke. He was named The Silent One Salisbury. At this time, he was sitting upright, his expression serious.
Besides these two, the criminals present included Ape-man Rokichi, Giant Mountain Lekov, Button Sunny (female criminal), Stitcher Womori, and the thinnest Death Spirit Yuyuer.
Except for Death Spirit Yuyuer, the other six had talked to each other or mocked each other, but no one had talked to Death Spirit Yuyuer. It wasn't that they didn't want to, but they didn't dare.
Death Spirit Yuyuer sat there with his head down, as if he were asleep.
The door was pushed open. A hunter wearing a black windbreaker walked into the room. He was holding a bunch of keys. Seeing him walk into the room, except for Death Spirit Yuyuer, the other six criminals had different expressions. Some showed fear, some didn't care at all.

The shackles on Big Mouth Kit's hands were untied. He moved his wrists, glanced at Amia, and reached for the food on the table.
Amia looked indifferent, but she was actually very panicked in her heart. If she didn't represent the royal family of the Rhine Kingdom, she would leave this conference room immediately. She didn't want to be in the same room with a group of crazy guys.
Soon, the shackles of all seven criminals were untied. Except for Death Spirit Yuyuer, the other six began to enjoy dinner. Some had a sense of ritual, and some reached out and grabbed, but there was one thing that was very unified: most of the table knives on the table disappeared.
"Everyone, enjoy your meal?"
Lady Fragrance stood at the door, smiling.
Except for the chewing sound, no one answered, and no one even looked at Lady Fragrance.
"Everyone, it took me nearly two days to get you here. Time is precious. Just now, I made an agreement with a guy who doesn't understand sentiment, that if you are willing to negotiate with me and assist us in completing something, he won't show up. So... count it as me begging you, at least pay attention to me? Believe me, you don't want to negotiate with that person."
Lady Fragrance's words attracted the attention of several people present, but most of them just looked at Lady Fragrance and continued to eat and drink.
"I am... Yuyuer."
Death Spirit Yuyuer spoke. He opened his eyes, and a pair of green pupils attracted the attention of everyone present.
"Yuyuer, a good name. What about the other six?"
Lady Fragrance had a good impression of Yuyuer. This is a criminal who is both powerful and knows how to judge the situation. 【2687-
"You're annoying, woman with poison on your body."
Big Mouth Kite put down the smoked meat pie in his hand and looked at Lady Xiang with great impatience.
"Are you six unwilling to negotiate?"
"It's not that we're unwilling to negotiate, it's that we're unwilling to be executed after being used by the Watcher Guild. Coming here, I never thought I could still live. I'm not even afraid of death, would I be afraid of you?"
Ape-Man Lockchi sneered and continued to eat the delicacies in big mouthfuls. He was eating as much as he could now, not wanting to die on an empty stomach.
"Give me a few more minutes, gathering people is a waste of time. 10 minutes, no, 5 minutes at most. They are all smart people, don't come in yet..."
Before Lady Xiang's words were finished, blood energy spread from outside the door. The room suddenly went quiet, and a pin drop could be heard.
