Bai Xuan's meeting with the Mysterious Family wasn't short, but the Senior Hunter was always the one to negotiate. Every time Bai Xuan asked a question, the Senior Hunter would throw it back at him. Bai Xuan was extremely anxious, but he couldn't show it.
From start to finish, He Peiyuan's mind had wandered off. From start to finish, he'd only said two or three sentences. He acted as if it had nothing to do with him, but Bai Xuan, who was sitting there, couldn't move.
After more than an hour of back and forth, Bai Xuan finally gave in. The Senior Hunter was more than happy to kick him out as soon as possible.
"One last question."
Bai Xuan couldn't help but look at He Peiyuan as he stood up. "Just how many Thousand Moon Stones do we have?"
The Thousand Moon Stones were something every Mysterious Family cared about. It was closely related to the Mysterious Family's curse, so Bai Xuan had no choice but to take a huge risk.
However, as soon as he asked this question, the atmosphere in the room froze. The genial expression on He Peiyuan's face disappeared in an instant and was replaced by a domineering aura that made it impossible for anyone to refute him.
"You've overstepped your boundaries." He Peiyuan only said four words.
* Whoosh! *
Bai Xuan immediately ran out of the room with his tail between his legs. He was so scared that he didn't dare take another step into the room.
The Senior Hunter watched in astonishment and hurriedly followed after him.
At that moment, Luo Yi and Ye Zibo returned with the five hundred thousand Meltdown Coins. This time, they didn't dare to barge into the headquarters. Instead, they went through the complicated procedures and waited for the people from the Hunter's Union to lead them in.
But just as they finished the procedures and arrived at the main hall, they saw Bai Xuan running out of a room in a panic.
"Young Master Bai!" Ye Zibo called out insensibly.
Bai Xuan trembled in fear, but he quickly recovered and pretended to be calm.
The Senior Hunter stood in front of the three with a faint smile. "Then …"
"Oh!
Here's five hundred thousand Meltdown Coins! "Luo Yi hurriedly handed over the money and gave Bai Xuan a meaningful look.
Bai Xuan frowned and shook his head, indicating that they should leave first.
Luo Yi immediately understood, and a lingering fear surged in his heart. As expected, this Hunter's Alliance was not simple!
The Senior Hunter tacitly accepted the five hundred thousand Meltdown Coins. His heart was already blooming with joy. Judging from the remodeling of the Hunter Union's headquarters, it was like a terrifying base that had been hollowed out. However, no one knew that it was built on the shoulders of giants.
With Chu Han's memories from his previous life, after telling Su Xing, along with the skills he learned from Ye Mo, and a group of experienced construction workers, everything was ready and he was willing to spend time, so naturally, everything was ready.
However, there were very few people who knew this secret. No one knew that the Hunter's Union was not as invincible as it seemed on the surface.
That was why Luo Yi felt that the five hundred thousand Furnace Coins were too little, and he was afraid that he would not be generous enough. However, in the eyes of the Senior Hunter, it was a huge sum of money, and it would allow the Hunter Union to rise again.
Just as the few of them had different thoughts in their hearts and were about to say their goodbyes and return to their respective homes to report the news of the Reapers to their families, suddenly!
Pa!
Not far away, a pen in the hands of a member of staff who was recording and observing the big screen dropped to the ground, making a rather obvious sound.
Then —
Hua!
A few people went into an uproar as they stared at the big screen in front of them with expressions of extreme shock!
This scene immediately attracted the attention of the Senior Hunter and the others. Bai Xuan and Luo Yi also hurriedly looked over, only to discover that the big screen that had caused such a commotion was actually projecting the trial monolith!
"What's wrong?" The Senior Hunter frowned, a bad premonition rising in his heart.
Under normal circumstances, the members of the Hunter's Union, especially the management staff of the headquarters, would rarely show such an unsteady reaction. After all, this was the first batch of people to join the Hunter's Union since its establishment. Some of them were even soldiers who had "died" in the Wolf Fang Regiment, then disappeared without a trace and changed their names.
In terms of mental fortitude, no one was stronger than them!
Therefore, something that could cause such a huge reaction from them was definitely not a small matter!
After hearing the Senior Hunter's question, the few of them immediately snapped out of their daze. One of them pointed at the monolith on the big screen with a trembling finger. "President!
The overall standing ranking!
The name of a high-order Homo Evolutis suddenly disappeared! "
The Senior Hunter's frown deepened. "Who?"
… …
At the same time, in the various bases, many people who paid attention to the combat strength ranking immediately noticed the sudden change in the overall ranking.
After the war, the number of high-order Homo Evolutis had dwindled. Every Homo Evolutis of the Seventh Order and above was as rare as a panda. Especially those who could climb to the top of the overall combat strength ranking. They were experts that were hard to come by.
These people were people that every base wanted to recruit with a large sum of money. However, many of the names on the overall combat strength ranking weren't their real names, but their titles. No one could find out where they were, and no one could even find out which faction they belonged to.
Even so, every name that disappeared from the overall combat strength ranking would immediately cause quite a stir. And the top twenty names would cause even more of an uproar!
Wolf Fang Base.
When this name disappeared from the Combat Strength Ranking, all the members of the departments in the entire base almost collapsed in panic!
An emergency meeting was held without the presence of the leader, Castellan Anluo, or even most of the department heads of the base. All the department heads except for the research department were present. Even He Shang, who was in the middle of developing a new weapon, was forcefully dragged out of the meeting!
A piece of news that would shock all the internal members of Wolf Fang and the members of the Wolf Fang Unit for the next month was released.
A catastrophe that would engulf all of China in the next three months and cover most of the bases would officially set off at this point in time!
… …
Chu Han found a small path from the back of the battlefield. He followed the path of the corpses and ran to a hillside far away from the base camp of the mutants in Yin City.
As he got closer, there were more and more corpses on the path. The way they died was so cruel that it was hard to look at them directly. The way they were killed shocked even Chu Han.
At the same time, an extremely bad feeling was planted in Chu Han's heart the moment he set foot on the hillside.
