There was silence on the 77th floor of the Hunter Association.
No matter how annoying Pariston is, many people don't understand why Nitro appointed such a vice president, but after all, he is the vice president of the Hunter Association, a rare three-star hunter.
Hunters in the association who only complete the tasks commissioned by the national government and enterprises and will receive a basic salary no matter what are called associate hunters. Although they are looked down upon by other hunters, they eventually occupy a large part of the association and have a certain say.
Solidly unite with Pariston!
This makes Pariston's popularity and authority in the association very high, and he is a real vice president, not a false position.
In all the countries on the six continents, this vice president has a high reputation!
But Pariston died like this?!
When they saw Pariston's body, the twelve people who wanted to stop Ji Xing seemed to be under a restraining spell. They all stood there in silence, as if what they saw before them became unreal!
Too fast, too fast!
If you say kill, just kill?!
It wasn't until a few seconds later that the bean-faced man who hurriedly ran after hearing the noise turned out from the corner and stared blankly at the situation here: "Fa, what happened?"
Led by Porter White, Westward Journey, Kansai, Mi Caiyin Storm and other talents quickly surrounded Ji Xing in the center. Mi Cai Yin Storm even directly activated his ability and showed Ji Xing a 'blue card'.
"Secret Chamber Judge! Go to court!"
This is his telekinesis ability as a two-star crime hunter. He can show three types of cards, blue is for going to court (warning), yellow is for restraint, and red is for leaving (dismissed).
The restraint card was also ready, and he said in a deep voice: "Man, you have gone too far! Even if there is evidence to verify what you said, we can only temporarily detain him and wait for the Chairman's announcement!"
"Hey, what's going on..." Kansai scratched his head in collapse, feeling like he was growing a brain.
"Article 4 of the Ten Articles of Hunters states that hunters shall not regard fellow hunters as prey, but hunters who commit heinous crimes are not protected by this article." Porter's breath was heavy, and a large amount of thoughts were flowing: "Prove Pariston's
A heinous crime, otherwise you would be the one who committed a heinous crime now, man!"
"This..." The bean-faced man was at a loss. Pariston...was killed by Ji Xing?!
He actually killed Pariston so easily. No, he couldn't go on like this. Chiduo's heart was spinning a thousand times, and he was very shocked and headache. Ji Xing wouldn't have evidence. If he had evidence, there would be no need to act so violently.
what to do……
"There is evidence." Ji Xing's three simple words relaxed the atmosphere and left Qiduo stunned.
"But it's not with me." He looked at Shen Houxiyou: "You seem a little panicked? You are probably not Pariston's subordinate, but you belong to the same organization as him, and you are the one who broke into the 12th branch of the Hunter Association.
'Mole', right?"
What? Another one? Journey to the West?!
Everyone looked at them in shock, Xiyou said with a gloomy face: "Me?! I think you are crazy, you might as well say that all twelve branches are traitors..."
Ji Xing looked at him quietly.
Journey to the West is getting quieter and quieter.
Killing rats to scare monkeys is obviously very effective.
He could see that if he insisted not to say anything, the lunatic in front of him would not mind sending him to accompany Pariston, and he did not have the slightest confidence in joining the twelve armies to fight against Ji Xing.
Both in terms of strength and popularity.
If a person is killed, he will die!
Just like Pariston lying there, what will happen if there are more tricks? After all, there are not many people who can face death calmly.
"Pariston is a damn lunatic!" So he cursed angrily, and at the same time admitted Ji Xing's accusation to everyone.
"??!"
Chiduo was dumbfounded, and Kansai raised his hand to scratch the tiger's head again: "Hey, what are you going to do now?"
We need to interrogate Journey to the West and find out everything.
Xiyou, who admitted it, cooperated very well, so everyone first received a shocking news.
"President Nitro... actually has a son?!" Everyone always thought that Nitro's character would be that of a 120-year-old single.
And as Journey to the West tells the story of the 'grievances' between father and son, everyone gradually understands everything.
Journey to the West is not actually a traitor or a traitor. It is just that before joining the Hunter Association, he was trained by Bjornde Nitro and recognized Bjornde's ideas. He only joined the Hunter Association after that. It was not his initiative to apply to join the twelve branches.
Over the years, he has not revealed any information that is detrimental to the Hunter Association. Of course, for example, he would share a copy of the information about Ji Xingnian's ability that was detected in Youkexin City. This is considered a personal grudge and does not involve the association as a whole.
And Bjornde Nitro has only one goal from beginning to end—to go to the Dark Continent again!
"I'm going to places that no one has ever been to, to meet people that no one has ever seen before, not to be bound by anyone, and to get things that no one has ever touched!" Journey to the West's voice rose slightly: "This is better than Yang De
That’s what the Lord said to me back then.”
"So... what exactly is the Dark Continent?" Kansai couldn't help but ask.
The others ignored him and repeated the words they just said in their hearts, sighing secretly that he was indeed... President Netero's son.
"I don't know the inside story of the chimera ant incident, but it was not done by Lord Biyang De." Immediately, Xiyou looked at Ji Xing and said: "Sir Biyang De and President Netero are very similar, or they are almost the same mold.
Those who come out will not use that kind of endlessly harmful means to harm an entire country.
But to say it doesn't matter at all, I'm not sure. I don't know how many people follow Mr. Byande. Among them, there are a few guys like Pariston who are reckless and don't consider the consequences. It's normal.
"
Having said this, he gritted his teeth bitterly: "That bastard Pariston! Assassinated the third prince of Begrose and caused the death of Misu Jimora... If I were Lord Biyande, I would have dealt with this sooner or later.
Our guy was kicked out! Oh, after all, this bastard implicated me!"
Indeed, he was among the people who were implicated. If Ji Xing and Pariston hadn't had a dispute over the Third Prince incident, there was no reason for him to be found out as he had been doing a good job.
As for this, Porter Bai, Michai Yinstrom and others gradually understood everything. They looked at Pariston's body, Westward Journey, and Ji Xing, and they didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
The twelve-branch rally originally held for the King's assassination and the chimera ant incident turned into a mole-catching rally. First, there was the death of Pariston and then the showdown in Journey to the West, which suddenly turned the two of them against each other.
It turns out there is someone behind the chimera ant incident.
What will be the consequences of reporting the truth about the assassination of the third prince to the United Nations? Since the assassination of the third prince was arranged by Pariston, does the assassination of the king have anything to do with him?
The Hunter Association cannot afford this!
"Doumian...can you contact President Nitro? Please get in touch with him as soon as possible." Porter took a deep breath and made arrangements.
"Ah...oh!"
And just as the bean-faced man was taking action, another sharp voice suddenly sounded: "Lord Pariston?! No! How could this happen?!"
"Who did this?!"
Not good! Mi Cai, Yin Shitong and others secretly screamed that something was not good. They turned around and saw a group of hunters looking at Pariston's body in disbelief and grief. The leader was a short painted man.
A fat girl with heavy blush.
The one-star beautiful hunter Chuti Beati is equivalent to the captain of Paris Stone’s escort! Are these guys always on standby in the association?
Inevitably, a chaos and conflict broke out, and all the escorts who witnessed Pariston's death did not care about the twelve associations.
During the conflict, Chiduo suddenly felt as if something was missing. She hid in a corner and looked around, and sure enough she found...
"Ji Xing is missing...and Jin?"
President Netero... there should be nothing going on, right? She was very worried.
The other side.
"It's so fast. You came to participate in the Twelve Branch Assembly this time, didn't you just come to kill Pariston?" Jin asked Ji Xing while walking on the road away from the association headquarters.
"It can be said that it is." Ji Xing said: "Otherwise, I will go directly to the NGL Autonomous Country to see the chimera ants, and help President Netero deal with them by the way. Do you want to go together? Jin."
"Chimera ants... let's forget it." Jin shook his head and said: "I am more interested in the president's son and the Cajun Empire now, and I plan to go there. You are enough to deal with the chimera ants.
"
"Going to Cajin?" Ji Xing smiled.
This subtle smile made Jin a little uneasy. He checked himself inexplicably and found no problems before he said, "Ji Xing, have you mastered the divine word?
After the last meeting on Greed Island, it took two days for me to find that I had been marked by a 'companion' card unknowingly. After thinking about it, you are the only one who has that kind of time and opportunity."
"That's not what you want to ask, right?" Ji Xing smiled and said, "You know too much."
"That's it." Jin murmured, and also smiled and said: "How can I know too much if I know you have mastered the divine word? Where did you learn it?"
"Island of Greed, after all, you are still my divine character teacher." Ji Xing said.
Jin Yizhao: "I remember that I didn't leave any information on learning divine characters on the island, right?"
Ji Xing raised his head and said that it was what he thought, and said: "Jin, let's talk next time. The airship I booked will take off in about half an hour. If you don't hurry up, you will miss the flight."
"Oh, okay." Jin nodded and watched Ji Xing leave with some subtle feelings in his heart.
In the past, I used my amazing learning ability to shock others, but this time I was really shown off. It took me a full year, plus the training on Greed Island, to master the unpopular practical skills of Shenzi.
to the current level.
And the airship has been booked, even so close to the time? What a strong confidence. Pariston has provoked the wrong person, Ji Xing... is much braver than you!
…
Half a day later.
Bergrose United, the royal capital.
The Acting Queen, Princess Faith, was sitting at the upper end of the meeting hall. In front of her, the senior government officials and royal family members of Bergrose were seated in two rows.
She looked around and said: "Just now, Nitro, the president of the Hunter Association, called the Ministry of Internal Affairs to express his apology to me and explain the mercenary Misu Jimora behind the attack on the third child, Jesway, causing his death.
, is the former vice president of the Hunter Association and former three-star hunter Pariston Hill.”
"What……"
There was a commotion below, and the senior officials looked at each other, and they could see each other's surprise and confusion.
The second prince Blenheim narrowed his eyes slightly, while the acting queen Faith continued to tell the origin and process to answer their doubts.
"To frame Ji Xing, who is also a member of the twelve branches?"
"The Cajin Empire..."
"Those guys are secretly planning to explore the Dark Continent?! Are they going to violate the v5 agreement? They must be warned!"
"There is also the Hunter Association. Are we too indulgent? The internal conflicts among their members dare to use the life of one of our princes to resolve the situation?!"
"Is the assassination of His Majesty the King also..."
The discussion became even more noisy, and without exception, everyone expressed anger and dissatisfaction.
Acting Queen Faith raised her right hand. She had established a certain prestige with her iron-blooded methods during the past week, and she instantly silenced those below.
"The Hunter Association's guilt will be put aside for the time being."
She said solemnly: "Nitro has sincerely apologized to my royal family. In this matter, the legendary hunter's fault was just that he was ignorant.
The main messenger Pariston was decisively killed by Ji Xing at the gathering of the Twelve Branches, and his subordinates were also temporarily controlled by the other Twelve Branches.
As you all know, I have a personal relationship with the Twelve Season Stars, but this will not affect my judgment on this matter. Although the death of the third child, Jiswei, was involved in the dispute between him and Pariston, he was only the victim.
After personally helping us identify the real culprit and killing him, it is inconvenient to hold him accountable any further.
For the assassination of my father and the chimera ant incident, we still need the Hunter Association to contribute."
After a pause, seeing that no one raised any objection, she nodded slightly and said: "As for the Cajun Empire, v5 must give a serious warning and ask them whether they are related to the assassination of the father. What are your thoughts and opinions on specific things?"
Someone stood up immediately: "Your Majesty the Queen..."
In the next half hour, Acting Queen Faith suppressed her irritation and listened to the officials discussing and arguing for more than half an hour, learning about the foreign policies and implementation guidelines of major countries that she did not like very much.
The second prince Blenheim below also listened quietly and chuckled in his heart: "I really underestimated you, sister, you are working hard to become a qualified queen, and it seems that you have the ability to truly become a qualified queen."
's queen.'
But you haven’t grasped the root of the contradiction!
Memories flashed through his eyes, it must have been 12 years since today, right?
When I was still a teenager at that time, I made an interesting friend. Regardless of each other's identities and origins, the young man talked enthusiastically about heaven and earth and the various shortcomings of this world.
Suddenly one day, that friend asked himself a question: 'Blenheim, do you think we can change the world in the future?'
I didn't answer him, but just took him to see a test of a new weapon.
That weapon has a rather beautiful name, "Red Rose", and it is also very beautiful when it explodes.
After reading it, the friend was silent for a long time. Soon after, the friend said goodbye to him and never met again.
"I almost forgot his name. It should be... Chrollo Rusilu, right?"
Who is stronger between personal force and national power? This is not a problem at all. No person with telekinesis can survive under a powerful army and advanced weapons with terrifying lethality!
But there will always be an endless stream of people with powerful telekinesis who have false confidence in their own power!
There will always be innocent and passionate young people!
This is the most fundamental contradiction!
A vice-president of the Hunter Association dared to set up a trap against the royal family and killed the third prince of a powerful country. A telepathic person with perhaps the highest level of personal power dared to talk about cooperation with the country in his personal capacity, without any respect at all.
Heart!
It's probably been too long since we showed the power of a big country to the outside world, sister.
When the discussion was over, Blenheim, who walked out of the conference hall, nodded to a military general with a special status and made an exiting gesture.
"Let's do it."
…
May 28, 2000.
Ji Xing arrived alone in the Republic of Rokario, which is adjacent to the NGL Autonomous Country, and met the hunters waiting here to pick him up.
