With their eyes facing each other, the eyes of Card Xiu and the head of the black agency both stayed at this moment for a second. I don’t know why, but they both instinctively had the same thought in their hearts: This person is not simple.
They looked at each other, and a faint smile appeared on the black agency chief's face.
Next to him, Dilishati, the hunter of the Holy Glory, lingered between the two for a while. He immediately took a step forward and invited Kaxiu to come over.
Next, there was a session similar to the awarding of medals. The platform was covered with a soft red carpet, faintly stitched with gold threads. On both sides of the carpet, four shadow hunters stood apart, creating a space.
And in this space, Shenghui hunter Dilixiati held a long, exquisite wooden tray in his hands. Opening the soft satin top, there was a slender sword underneath, about half a person's length. The sword body was very narrow,
It was smooth and sharp, with dense patterns on the blade. It didn't look like it was used for combat at all, but a ceremonial prop.
The colorful emeralds inlaid on the hilt of the sword also prove this. This sword is actually the sword of the first king of the Hongli Empire. Since a certain era, it has been used as a hunter for the Shadow Hunter level of the Dark Hunting Organization.
It is a prop used in the ceremony of honor. It has been specially maintained and will not decay for thousands of years. Of course, don’t even think about using this sword to fight, it will only be for show.
Dilishati handed the tray in his hand to the black agency chief. The black agency chief picked up the ceremonial sword and slowly put it on Ka Xiu's shoulder. Then, he read a long list of official features in ancient imperial dialect with a rich accent.
Monologue. Every time he said a monologue, Ka Xiu answered yes.
After about a minute, the sword was put away and the award ceremony was completed.
Under the gaze of many hunters in the Hunter Association Hall, Card Xiu completely became the second shadow hunter. He had a usual expressionless face and did not feel that there was anything to be excited about. On the contrary, the old hunters below looked quite excited and were whispering among themselves.
He also grabbed some acquaintances next to him and started to show off, raising his fingers to point at Ka Xiu from time to time, which looked very respectable.
Ka Xiu chose to ignore it.
About half an hour later, the awarding ceremony was basically over. As expected, the head of the black agency and Dilishati decided to have a chat with Card Xiu.
They arrived at the headquarters building of the Dark Hunting Organization, the office dedicated to the head of the black agency. The space here is spacious and the sound insulation effect is excellent.
Soon, the three of them started talking, in the form of small talk.
Kaxiu had been well prepared before he came. He identified himself as a member of the secret martial arts community of the Hongli Empire and the only inheritor of a mysterious ancient boxing school. He had been practicing in seclusion before, but later the school became enmity with a mysterious organization.
Although there are experts within the school, the number of them is too small.
Outnumbered and eventually destroyed, only Kaxiu escaped.
That mysterious organization naturally has a lot of characteristics of the sect organization.
This is what Ka Xiu mainly wants to express to the head of the black agency.
To be honest, this reason is a bit corny. But the head of the black agency believed it at least 50%, because the sect organization has really done this.
The Dark Hunting Organization does not have a deep understanding of the secret martial arts world of the Empire, but it is not completely ignorant. As for the Sect Organization, this Dark Hunting Organization or the number one enemy of all official supernatural forces, they have naturally had contact and collision with each other for a long time.
Although the Sect organization has not been active in recent decades, the Dark Hunting Organization has always paid attention to it. Among them is some content about the secret martial arts world. At least one-third or even one-half of the Sect organization's energy is focused on it.
In the secret martial arts world of the empire, sometimes members of the organization are recruited, and sometimes a secret martial arts sect is destroyed without any reason. Sometimes there is a backlash from the secret martial arts world, and the number of members is severely damaged and it remains dormant for a period of time.
Therefore, the plot created by Ka Xiu is not too outrageous.
He declared that he was a member of the secret martial arts world, and that the secret sect he belonged to was destroyed by the sect organization. He just wanted to find a common enemy with the dark hunting organization. In this way, he could eliminate the grudge and offset some suspicions.
Fortunately, neither Dilishati nor the head of the black agency raised any questions directly. And silence actually means that regardless of whether it is true or false, they are the first to accept it. There are many considerations in it, and what Kaxiu said is just one of them.
Partly, the most important thing is that he is strong enough! And a strong person, as long as he is consistent with the outside world, can always find an organization willing to accept him! Card Xiu is suspected to have a combat power that can rival that of No. 1 Dark Hunter Kasai, and can even make Di
Lishati felt a little threatened.
Moreover, the procedure for him to become a Shadow Hunter was legitimate, and there was no illegal operation during the step-by-step process. At this point, the Holy Hunter Dilishati, who led the battle for the Shadow Hunter seat, could not argue.
Therefore, no matter what the three people present thought, their conversation always remained harmonious. In the second half of the conversation, the black agency chief talked about the old hunters and the black bait wood contributed by Card Xiu.
This material is very useful to the dark hunting organization, but its origin is difficult to find, and its growth and formation conditions may be extremely harsh. The black agency chief tried to ask Ka Xiu about the place where the black bait wood was found, and Ka Xiu accidentally obtained it.
He prevaricated. And, after the excuse was over, he asked the head of the black agency about the situation in the treatment center. Obviously this was a hint, and both parties in the conversation basically understood it.
So the head of the black agency got straight to the point and stopped whining: "Bai Kui, we need black wood, which is a very precious bait material for dark creatures. If used under certain circumstances, it can play a big role.
.Well, if you can provide us with ten pieces of black wood every year, you will be the director of the Hunter Association’s treatment center..."
Aboveboard and openly trading the authority within the Hunter Association.
Card Xiu was sitting on the sofa, with half of his body illuminated by the sun. He was wearing a uniform similar to a military uniform, and his silhouette looked tough and straight. After a moment of silence, Card Xiu turned to look at the black agency chief: "Deal."
The ten pieces of black bait wood mentioned by the head of the black agency naturally did not refer to the arm-length ones that Ka Xiu had just obtained from the ghost man, which could be used to make torches. Instead, they used the remaining ones that he handed over, the palms of his hands.
One that is as long as your thumb. If it is of this level, there is no problem.
In fact, to use black bait wood normally, you only need a section as long as your little finger. A palm-long piece of black bait wood is enough to be used a dozen times. The one that can be used as a torch can be used hundreds of times.
The office of the head of the black agency, after the two parties reached a deal.
The head of the black agency conscientiously reminded Card Xiu first.
"You are now the director of the treatment hospital. In the past, the treatment hospital was one of the important components of the Hunter Association, and had many elite hunters under its jurisdiction. But as you know, the original director of the treatment hospital, No. 4 Shadow Hunter Soul
Siam was seriously injured while leading the elite to eliminate a group of beast-turned-beast hunters. Therefore, Feilengcui's treatment center headquarters actually suffered heavy losses in that operation. Many of the backbone members were killed or injured. They were still alive.
Less than 20% came down. And among these people, there are still a large number of people who need to manage and control the beast's nest in Feilengcui, which is used to detain extremely dangerous prisoners. There are not many people left, I'm afraid you need to do it yourself
Reassemble in various branches..."
"Lair of Wild Beasts?" Ka Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly.
"A strong cage is used to detain hunters who are on the verge of losing control. Some are imprisoned voluntarily, while others are forcibly imprisoned after discovery. If the hunter has not completely entered the stage of beast transformation, we will not
So that he can kill his companions with his own hands in advance. So it is equivalent to a buffer area, or...a sanatorium..."
The black agency chief crossed his arms and said solemnly.
"What I need to remind you is that these prisoners are very dangerous, extremely dangerous. Some hunters often have explosive improvements in strength after becoming extremely malignant. There are many prisoners who can threaten the Shadow Hunters. Think of Soul Scythe
Well, when she was leading a team to suppress a hunter who had turned into a wild beast, she was caught off guard and seriously injured..."
Card Xiu listened silently, with no intention of interrupting. The head of the black agency reminded some more, and immediately called his assistant over.
"Thomas, help me get the badge of the director of the treatment home."
Two minutes later, assistant Thomas walked in.
Three minutes passed, Thomas and Cardiff left the building and headed towards the treatment facility. It was not built together with the headquarters of the Dark Hunting Organization.
Soon, the two came to a place similar to a mental hospital. The walls were very high and white, but there were black spots burned by the fire. There were trees planted in the walls, and the tree crowns blocked the projection.
Looking inside, several guards are guarding the gate.
Thomas showed the letter of appointment from the head of the black agency, and entered the treatment facility together with the badge on Cardiff's chest representing Dark Hunter No. 2.
However, surprisingly, no one came to greet him. Thomas had clearly told Cardiff that he had actually notified the treatment center in advance that the new director of the treatment center would be appointed in the next few days. This situation made Cardiff slightly agitated.
Frowning, he walked at the front without saying a word.
The gray-white cement road spreads forward, with some cool-toned buildings on both sides. It looks like a mixture of cement and steel, and green plants are the only embellishments. Overall, the treatment center feels very dull, even vague
It smells of corruption and decadence.
Moving forward, he and Thomas entered the office building of the treatment center.
At the door, the two hunters acting as guards were struggling. They seemed to want to enter the building to alert their companions, but they did not have the courage.
He could only let Ka Xiu, who was becoming more and more oppressive, walk in.
Treatment center, office hall, once the busiest and most serious place.
At this moment, it has suddenly become a noisy bar and a decadent casino. A dozen hunters who were originally elites in the treatment center are playing dice, surrounded by wine bottles, and the air is filled with an unpleasant smell.
These hunters were disheveled and smelled of alcohol. Some had chicken coop heads on their heads, and some had dark circles under their eyes with red bloodshot eyes. They looked like they had been decadent for a long time. Among the dozen hunters, there was a bald man with a bare upper body and shoulders.
There was a terrifying scar, and he was drunk. Judging from what other people called him, this man named Mani seemed to be the vice president of the treatment center. In fact, he was indeed the vice president of the treatment center, but he was just
It was temporarily installed half a year ago. Because during that operation, the soul scythe was seriously injured and both vice-deans died.
Mani was originally the captain of an elite team, but after all the people on top died, he temporarily assumed the role of deputy director. This temporary period lasted only a few months. During these few months, the treatment center
The remaining hunters naturally degenerated. They experienced that terrible battle, leaving behind nightmare-like psychological trauma. Those who were not determined will soon numb themselves with wine and sex, and their spirits will quickly weaken.
Most of those who are determined are now serving as jailers in the Nest of Wild Beasts, silently waiting for the day when the treatment center will regain its strength.
Outside the office hall, a series of dull footsteps approached quickly.
I don't know when, a tall and strong figure blocked the door. He stood there, looking at everyone like an iron tower.
His eyes swept over the wine bottles, dices, etc. little by little.
The dozen or so hunters were not aware of it yet and were still playing the dice game. A blond young man lost and picked up the wine bottle next to him under the cheers of the crowd. He drank it all in one gulp to show his huge capacity.
Unexpectedly, the hand he was holding up the wine bottle had just reached mid-air. The bottle was pinched by another big hand, like an iron clamp, and was firmly fixed. The blond young man pulled it out two or three times, but to no avail. He suddenly became angry: "
What bastard ruined my mood! If I can’t finish my drink, it will be your fault..."
The young man was about to curse and turn his head, but suddenly he felt another big hand grabbing his head like a rubber ball. The five fingers were like electric drills, firmly fixing it. His neck moved back uncontrollably.
Looking up, I was shocked to see a strong and condescending face.
The expressionless face said slowly: "You will finish it."
Then, the hand holding the young man's head used a slight force, forcing his mouth to open wide. The other hand holding the wine bottle squeezed it gently, and the wine mixed with broken glass fell into the young man's mouth like sharp crystals.
Gurgling, scratching the skin and flesh, cutting through the esophagus.
"Ho ho ho..."
The young man struggled endlessly, his face was distorted, and his eyes were painful. It was obvious that his esophagus was bleeding, and there were even large wounds accumulating.
"Hey kid, what the hell are you doing!!!"
On the other side, Mani, a bald man, stood up. His burly, bear-like figure was very oppressive. Seeing his little brother being treated like this, Mani shook the ferocious scar on his shoulder and rushed over: "Seeking death!"
Bang!!!
A fierce light flashed in Ka Xiu's eyes, and the palm of his right hand was like a black python, gently tilting forward. Mani's chin happened to be close at this moment, and his whole body suddenly flew up like a cannonball.
The hard bald head penetrated the ceiling with a click, creating a big hole. His hands and feet naturally drooped, dangling like a corpse.
