Mang Hou
Chapter 179 Secret Meeting in the Tavern
No one outside the organization could counteract that poison.
Even within the Umbrella organization, a very high level of authorization was required to get the antidote.
But as luck would have it, Sabina had very high authority.
Even more coincidentally, Suren had a good relationship with this Umbrella organization lieutenant general.
Suren lent the antidote to Kai, and the two sat there chatting.
Kai, who had long resigned himself to death, was shocked and didn't know what to say as he watched one deadly problem after another being easily resolved.
But after the shock, he quickly calmed down.
That familiar feeling was back...
Kai had quickly guessed the truth after the escort incident.
He thought that Suren was dead for sure in that situation.
But he didn't expect that not only was Suren not dead, but he was also causing more and more commotion. He gradually changed from a wanted criminal to an S-class wanted criminal, and then to the current SS-class super-dangerous wanted criminal...
Every time the Umbrella organization issued a new arrest warrant, Kai knew that Suren had become stronger.
......
As they talked, they talked about the encirclement and suppression today.
"The gunshot wound on your body was inflicted by 'Gun King' Geiger?"
"Yes. That guy's [Sixth Sense] ability is very tricky. Even when I got close to him, I couldn't kill him."
"..."
Kai expressionlessly rummaged in the bloody hole with tweezers, and took out the bullet stuck on the bone. Looking at the practiced movements, he seemed to be very skilled in dealing with his injuries.
He didn't use anesthesia, but there was no pain on his face at all, as if it wasn't his own body that had been shot.
While operating, he could still spare the time to say: "I got the news that the Oliver family has gathered at least a dozen Tier 2 professionals to encircle and suppress you this time. You have to be careful in the future..."
He still didn't know the reason for the incident, and thought that Suren had been accidentally besieged.
So when he got the news, he wanted to "rescue" him regardless of the consequences.
In fact, he didn't say that this time he took action, no matter what the result, he would not be able to return to "Umbrella."
Kai thought that Suren used some special method to escape from the barrier, and specifically reminded him.
Unexpectedly, Suren responded lightly at this time, "Oh, it's okay. I've already killed those people."
Hearing this, Kai's eyes froze for a moment.
He thought he had heard wrong.
But looking at Suren's expression, he smiled again.
Only then did he understand that it was the same even if he didn't come.
He didn't say any more.
His old friend was as strong as ever.
So strong that it makes people feel... always so "outrageous".
Originally, Kai himself didn't care about these things so much anymore.
Secondary talent awakening, special inheritance, strength... he had already taken them lightly.
It's good to be able to kill.
But the fact is, not caring doesn't mean he's not strong.
The current Kai can rely on his ability to sneak attack and assassinate some professionals and restrain Tier 2 professionals, which is already considered a top master among Tier 1 professionals.
But compared with Suren, the difference is really far.
But this is also really good.
A glimmer of hope-filled light, like the breaking of dawn, overflowed from Kai's eyes.
.......
Now Kai is no longer as cheerful as he used to be, and has become very stable.
He gives people the feeling of a sharp blade with its edge completely hidden.
Except when talking about the days when the two were in the Cross Society, he would smile.
Most of the time, he was silent.
However, the major turning point in life is not all bad for Kai.
His ghostly movements were actually a secondary talent awakening after countless life-and-death battles.
Moreover, because he had the mentality of being ready to die before, he was fearless in exploration.
In the end, he survived, and he also had his own opportunities in the ruins. That Treading Void Steps was an ancient "Shadow Assassin" professional inheritance obtained in a cursed space.
.......
Suren had the experience of digesting "x serum", and he knew that the best environment for digesting potions was in the ruins.
Kai now had no worries about his life, and he had just reached the threshold for advancement, so he planned to stay in the ruins for a while.
Suren took out the spoils of war from killing "Viper" Bright Giles.
The old Tier 2 assassin's implanted equipment and advancement materials had a high degree of compatibility with Kai, and the storage ring also had many professional supplies for assassins. He stuffed them all to Kai, who wanted to decline.
After exhorting some experiences after using the potion, the two separated.
Kai is no longer the ordinary gang leader he used to be, he is strong enough.
Suren also has his own things to do.
.......
And just when Suren and Kai were communicating.
Young Master Danze also brought the Oliver family's large army, and rushed over in a hurry.
Looking at the seal gathering place surrounded by nearly a thousand people, Young Master Danze was in a good mood.
Seeing that his great revenge was about to be avenged, and the "Infinite Hair" material could be taken back, the bad breath in his chest was relieved.
"Come on, open the barrier!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
With an order, the purple light curtain began to slowly dissipate.
The Oliver family members originally had expressions of anticipation on their faces, expecting to see the "SS wanted criminal Suren" captured with a face full of blood, or his body hung up...
But unexpectedly, as soon as the barrier was opened, a plume of black smoke soared into the sky like a volcanic eruption.
"Be careful! Protect the young master!"
The sudden movement was like an explosion, scaring everyone.
The bodyguards quickly stood in front of Danze.
Everyone thought the movement was a bomb explosion, and scattered to the ground.
But after waiting for a while, and seeing no other movement, they turned back to look at the streets sealed off.
The thick smoke dissipated in a blink of an eye, and they saw the dilapidated streets that had been smoked black.
Huh... where are the people?
Phosphorus fire oil can burn even bones. Suren was afraid that there would not be enough oxygen before, so he deliberately added a combustion aid.
By the time they came, not to mention people, even the corpses had been burned to ashes.
The barrier suddenly opened just now, and the air pressure exploded in an instant, and even the ashes were scattered...
The Oliver family members were all dumbfounded.
One by one, they widened their eyes, wanting to find something from this pile of ashes.
Some people even rubbed their eyes, not daring to believe what they saw.
More than a hundred people disappeared out of thin air, leaving only charred remains?
Gradually, an unbelievable guess emerged in their minds: Could it be... there was an accident?
Obviously, that's the way it is.
Although the people are gone, there are obvious traces of fighting on the sealed streets.
After a moment of愣, Danze was furious: "Damn it! What the hell is going on!"
For a time, the team of thousands of people was silent, and no one dared to respond.
The fire was burning, they all guessed the truth, but they didn't dare to say it.
And in the team, only one person's crystal eyes flickered, and a smile that was not easily noticed by others flashed across.
It was Sabina who came to "watch the excitement".
She originally had the idea of saving people in case there was an accident.
Now it seems that she was overthinking.
Although she had long known that Suren had mastered the ability of space, this space barrier could not restrain him.
But she still felt it was incredible.
After all, more than a dozen Tier 2 professionals and so many elite regiments were besieging him.
She only gave Suren information, but did not know the battle plan.
Originally, she thought... Suren just wanted to lure and kill a few target characters, and then teleport away.
Now it seems that he killed everyone?
Looking at the scene in front of her, this beautiful gang boss was full of disbelief, but more of it was joy.
She looked at the dark streets, and murmured in her heart: "Master is really amazing..."
.......
A very loud encirclement and suppression operation ended in an almost farcical way.
The news that the Oliver family had besieged the "SS wanted criminal Suren" had spread throughout the camp before Young Master Danze set off. Everyone was waiting to hear the good news.
Now, however, a nearly "supernatural" message was sent back.
The space barrier was sealed off, and no one knew what happened.
But the fact is, the wanted criminal was not caught, and the Oliver family's high-ranking fighters were all wiped out.
When the news returned to Dawn Camp, there was an uproar.
More than a dozen Tier 2 professionals were wiped out, and most of them were well-known old powerhouses. This news could not be concealed.
Even the monastery incident last time was exposed.
Everyone realized that the wanted criminal had the ability to easily kill Tier 2 professionals.
The wanted warrant said that he was just a Tier 1 who was relying on forbidden objects to be ferocious?
Go to hell with the intelligence!
The bounty hunters who previously felt that a "walking huge bounty" had been caught and lost a great opportunity were all rejoicing that they had not encountered the killing god.
For a time, the bizarre story was spreading everywhere in the camp.
.......
And Suren, the instigator, had already appeared in the Black Duke Tavern, leisurely drinking wine.
This is a place frequented by members of the Umbrella organization and the Steam Party.
But because of Sabina's existence, it has become the safest place.
Because he was delayed for some time in the ruins to catch up with Kai, it was almost evening when he came back, and the news about the encirclement war had spread like crazy in the various taverns in the camp.
The tavern was packed with drinkers.
Usually, everyone exchanges information about wilderness hunting, various gossip...
But today, everyone was talking about only the bizarre encirclement war.
The information that the wilderness hunters heard from various channels was all summarized in the tavern.
"Let me tell you, the latest intelligence... a detective went to investigate the scene and said that he found some silver hair and traces of fighting. It's certain that it's not some supernatural means, nor is it some forbidden object that perishes together. That Suren did have a big battle with the encirclement group in the sealed space..."
"Impossible. No matter how powerful that Suren is, it is impossible for him to kill more than a dozen high-level professionals by himself. This rumor is too unreliable..."
"Rumor? Hehe, now the list of the eleven old professionals who died has been released, go and see if there is anyone alive?"
"I said long ago that that Suren is a Tier 3 professional, don't you believe it? Do you believe it now! My goodness, more than a dozen high-level professionals, hundreds of people, not a single survivor was left..."
"I heard that Suren is also acquainted with 'Hyena'. Didn't 'Gun King' Geiger participate in the encirclement before? I heard that Hyena fought with Geiger to cover Suren's escape..."
"Hehe, you probably don't know, Hyena is also ridiculously strong. Geiger not only didn't kill him, but also got two knives himself..."
"Fortunately, Geiger was held back. If he had gone, he would have been buried together..."
"Don't say, Suren and that Hyena are really carved out of the same mold. They have a bad temper and a heavy killing intent. Whoever provokes them will never die. Now the Oliver family is going to be heartbroken..."
"Hiss~ Can't afford to provoke, can't afford to provoke. Don't mention the matter of earning Suren's bounty to me in the future! Even if I find him, I will walk around..."
"..."
Suren listened with great interest.
Indeed, there are some capable people among the professionals. After investigating the scene, they analyzed the general situation.
But fortunately, after listening for a long time, they are all some unimportant information.
No one knows the key information about his ability.
After all, everyone who has seen it is dead.
.......
The tavern was particularly lively tonight.
And as the wine was drinking, the whole tavern suddenly became quiet again.
Without looking, Suren knew that it must be Sabina who had come.
Every time she appeared, it was like this.
He has a kind of spiritual connection with this succubus servant. When she gets close to a certain distance, he can immediately sense it.
Sabina naturally found Suren sitting in the corner, and glanced over.
It looked like an unintentional casual glance, but the coquettishness revealed in her eyebrows was naturally directed at Suren, the master.
After only one glance, Sabina did not show any abnormality from usual, and walked upstairs gracefully.
The tavern returned to its hustle and bustle again.
Suren drank a few more glasses of wine, calculated the time, and went to the bathroom.
Avoiding other people's eyes, he teleported and appeared on the third floor of the tavern.
This is the floor of the supreme VIP private rooms.
The Black Duke Tavern was particularly lively tonight, even the rooms on the third floor were packed with people.
There were scantily clad girls walking back and forth in the corridor. Suren didn't go out, and waited in the cubicle of the bathroom.
After a while, the sound of subtle high heels sounded.
Suren opened the door lock, and a graceful woman rushed in.
Sabina locked the door with her backhand, rubbed the alchemical ring on her hand, and casually arranged a one-way soundproof barrier.
She looked at Suren and showed a charming smile, "Sir, are you looking for me~"
Saying that, her hot body leaned over without any politeness, looking like a well-behaved maid pleasing her master.
Before Suren could speak, Sabina blinked again and praised: "Wow~ Sir, you are really amazing today."
Suren smiled faintly, didn't say much, and asked directly: "What's the news today?"
He came here naturally to get first-hand information from Sabina and confirm future arrangements.
If necessary, he may temporarily leave the camp and go to the ruins to avoid the limelight.
Sabina replied: "They didn't find any useful clues. That Young Master Danze is in a rage now. But because you killed everyone, there are also smart people who have begun to suspect that there is a problem within them."
She said in a delicate voice, and her soft body leaned over. The silk hip-hugging dress also slipped off the shoulder straps because of this movement, and the snow-white and delicate skin was exposed to the air...
Sabina didn't mean to tidy up her clothes, and didn't mind showing off in front of this man.
"Um..."
Suren showed a thoughtful look as he listened, but he was not surprised.
He killed people happily before, and burned most of the traces with a fire, but some hidden dangers could not be eliminated.
For example, the pre-prepared fuel oil, or some details in the chase.
Sharp-eyed people will naturally be able to see that Suren must have mastered some information.
Thinking about it, he asked: "Will it cause trouble for you?"
Sabina's smile on her pretty face became more charming when she heard Suren caring about her situation first, "No. I used mental hypnosis to get the information. Those people who leaked it didn't even know it themselves. Even if they suspect, they won't suspect me."
While speaking, she also spread Suren's hand around her slender waist, and let both big hands rest on her upturned buttocks.
Probably because they have been together for a long time, Sabina also figured out the temperament of her master.
Although he always has a poker face, he is still very reasonable.
Occasionally, she can be a little presumptuous~
For example, take the initiative to tease.
"Um. You did a good job."
Suren is also accustomed to his maid's teasing all the time, and naturally enjoys Sabina's enthusiasm.
Even if he is very familiar with the curvy touch of the beauty in front of him, he will still feel a kind of bone-eroding enjoyment when he touches it.
The succubus's coquettishness is not pretended, but engraved in her bones.
That is an ultimate charm that people will never get tired of.
......
Hearing that the information was similar to what he expected, Suren also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, he thought of something, took out a storage ring, and said, "By the way, you find a chance to put this implanted equipment up for auction at the Oliver family's auction house."
In the storage ring, naturally, is the [Thousand Silks] implanted equipment stripped from the corpse of "Magician" Lloyd.
Another plan for Suren to come back this time is to "return" this thing to Danze.
Not to mention the witch's hair, the main material of this implanted equipment, 'Thismo Shin Iron Nematode', is one of the few silk threads known to be most suitable for puppeteers.
Seeing that the witch's hair is likely not to be obtained, if there is a finished [Thousand Silks] circulating on the market, that young master will definitely not miss it.
Suren naturally wanted to provide a little help to Danze so that he could advance earlier.
After all, he learned from the soul fragments of that Lloyd that there is a treasure in the Oliver family's treasure house that is very suitable for puppeteers.
The wool cannot be harvested too frequently, and you have to wait for the sheep to grow a little longer.
"Okay, sir."
Sabina took the storage ring, took a look, and immediately guessed what Suren was going to do, but she didn't understand why he wanted to do this.
But she didn't ask why, what the master ordered, naturally, she had to complete it.
......
After Suren finished explaining the business, he thought about it and said, "I won't show up again recently, be careful yourself."
Sabina blinked, "Sir... won't you come over at night recently?"
The resentment in her tone is an emotion that can stir up people's lower abdomen.
"Um."
Suren naturally knew that she was not asking, but wanted to express other meanings.
At this time, he thought of something again, took out an ancient mirror, and said, "By the way, I got a cursed object this time, and it has a high degree of compatibility with your ability..."
As he said, he took out the [Angus's Dream Refraction Mirror] that was obtained by beheading "Dream Thief" Janet.
This kind of cursed object that can remotely release mental power is indeed a rare treasure.
Sabina took the mirror, and seemed not to care about the efficacy of the thing at all.
Like a kitten getting a dried fish reward, her eyes instantly showed a very happy smile, "Wow~ Master, is this a gift for me~"
She leaned over even more, and it could be seen that this was a heartfelt surprise.
As soon as she finished speaking, a piece of warmth came over, and everywhere she touched was smooth and delicate.
Suren didn't speak, and smiled and patted her head.
And coincidentally, at this time, there was a sudden movement next door. It sounded like a drinker and a girl rushed into the same cubicle, and then "banged" closed the door, followed by rapid breathing and the sound of clothes rubbing.
The private rooms on the third floor all have independent bathrooms, and originally there would be very few drinkers here. The hotel next door is also very close, but when the wine is strong, there will always be restless people in this secluded place...
Suren and Sabina's perceptions are very keen, and they can naturally hear this movement clearly.
Listening to the movement next door, the atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.
At this moment, Sabina's long skirt straps had completely slipped off, her clothes were half undone, and her heavy towering peaks were about to come out.
She didn't care about the exposure at all, and hugged Suren's neck, showing all her charm, "Sir, are you in a hurry?"
