Chapter 70 The Darkness Is Waking Up
Just as Su Ming began to "sell himself for fame and fortune", in the city center of Longyao City, in the deepest part of a mansion, another unknown conversation was taking place.
A superior dressed very well in a suit was holding a retro phone with an angry look on his face.
"Look at the people you sent. What kind of idiots are they?" The superior said angrily. "A group of guys who have been in the underground world and have countless blood on their hands, were wiped out in one night. How could such trash complete such an important mission?"
The angry speech of the superior was met with a rather harsh voice.
"Don't say that, my collaborator." The other party said indifferently: "They are actually quite capable and are quite famous among the lower-level underground professionals. According to my estimation, it's just a cub. With you secretly taking care of it, it shouldn't cause the mission to fail."
"But their mission did fail. Not only did they fail, but they also exposed me." The superior's anger did not diminish at all, and even intensified, saying, "I told you to send a senior professional to take charge of this matter a long time ago, but you didn't listen. Now, everyone is dead, even the cub ran away. Our plan has all gone to waste. Are you happy?"
Faced with the criticism from this superior, the person on the other end of the phone still seemed calm.
"High-level professionals can't be dispatched casually. Even if they can be dispatched, I won't send them." The other party said: "If you really send an underground professional of that level, are you sure you can control it?"
The superior was suddenly speechless.
He might not be able to control one or more senior professionals and make them do things for him obediently.
If the person on the other end of the phone sent someone of this level, the superiors would be worried.
After all, a phantom demon cub that could potentially evolve into a nightmare species and a phantom demon bloodline that leads directly to the Seven Stars, there is a high possibility that those underground professionals with no moral bottom line would be tempted.
Once they are interested, will they care about the mission or not?
After all, they are underground professionals, and their ambition and greed have no bottom line, not to mention that they are underground professionals who are superiors. If they are really tempted, perhaps even their employers may be killed.
If someone could become a high-level professional, how could he become a resident of the underground world unless he really committed a heinous crime? On the contrary, even if a low-level professional had some improper thoughts, there were many ways to control them.
From this point of view, the other side's arrangement is understandable.
It's just "Did you really consider this before sending out a team of lower-level professionals?"
The superior's voice became very low.
".What's the meaning?"
The person on the other end of the phone seemed to raise an eyebrow.
"Don't think I don't know your purpose." The superior snorted coldly and said, "You are eager to create some chaos in Longyao City to divert the attention of the top leaders of Base City and make it easier for you to do some shameful things in secret."
The superior suspects that the other party deliberately created this situation for his own purposes.
In other words, the other party might have deliberately sent out someone who was not that strong so that the other party would not be able to catch the cub all at once.
As a result, the fight between the cubs and the underground professional group will enter a stalemate, and they will cause trouble in every corner of Longyao City, eventually attracting the attention of other high-level officials in the base city, thus diverting their attention.
This is a very reasonable suspicion.
Not to mention, the superiors did know that the other party had been making some secret moves in Longyao City, and did not want to be discovered by someone with ulterior motives.
Therefore, "If you cause me to lose important nightmare bloodlines because of your own personal purposes, then I'm sorry, I won't cooperate with you anymore."
The superior said it without question.
The person on the other end of the phone fell silent, and an indescribable feeling of depression came over me.
The oppressive feeling made those in higher positions feel like breaking out in cold sweats.
Even though he sounds very domineering and strong, in fact, the person in a superior position knows very well that he is not good enough in front of the other party.
He was just a senior member of Longyao Base City. He might be very powerful in Longyao City and could show off his power at will, but he might not be that great in the eyes of others.
The "Sin" that the other party belongs to is one of the largest mercenary organizations in the underground world.
The forces of the entire underground world are complex and spread all over the world. One can imagine how capable the opponent is to occupy a top position in it.
Apart from anything else, the leader and deputy leader of "Sin" are both seven-star hunters, which is far beyond the ability of Longyao City, which does not even have a seven-star professional, to contend with.
If Longyao City and the other three coastal base cities had not always been exchanging what they had, and the four base cities had close ties with each other, and from the world's perspective could be seen as an alliance, the largest mercenary organization in the underground world would not have been afraid of Longyao City.
They undoubtedly have the strength to capture a base city, but because the base cities are not isolated from each other, they can only act in secret.
In such a situation, if the other party didn't need someone like me to act as their insider, if I dared to speak to them like this, I would definitely be asking for trouble.
The superior now only dares to use this little capital to restrain the other party, betting that the other party dare not act rashly.
Fortunately, he made the right bet.
"Don't worry, my friend." The person on the other end of the phone said in a calm voice, "You haven't been completely exposed yet. It's a good thing that all the people I sent over were killed. At least, in this way, the people at the top of the base city will not be sure who hired them, right?"
"What about my nightmare bloodline?" The superior heaved a sigh of relief, but still said in a deep voice: "Don't forget, the condition for agreeing to assist you was the nightmare bloodline."
"Don't worry, even if it's the conditions we gave, there's no reason why it can't be done." The other party said calmly: "The cub was originally the prey we were targeting, and we gave you the news of its existence. Even the fact that it appeared in Longyao City was also something we intended to rush over to, wasn't it?"
Hearing this, the superior did not say anything, but snorted in his heart.
Precisely because all of this was operated by the other party, he had to wonder whether the other party was deliberately using him to create chaos in Longyao City.
Otherwise, why didn't they catch the cubs right from the start, instead of going through so much trouble to drive them into Longyao City? I was also overwhelmed by the blood of the nightmare species at the beginning, and I actually agreed to cooperate with them without a second thought and secretly helped them. Now it's too late to regret it.
Now that things have happened, you must definitely get the benefits you deserve.
"Then what are you going to do?" The superior said, "In another day, the entrance to the Spirit Demon Prison will be open. By then, the cub can easily escape back to the Spirit Demon Prison, and the rare opportunity to obtain the Nightmare Seed bloodline will be completely gone."
At this point, the superior couldn't help but feel irritated.
A cub that could potentially evolve into a nightmare species is extremely rare.
The blood of the nightmare species is so difficult to obtain. Now that there is such a chance to obtain blood of this level, the superior really does not want to miss it.

The other side obviously knew about this as well.
So, he promised.
"I will make arrangements to keep the cub from leaving the world." The other party said, "You just need to do your own thing and don't expose your cooperation with us."
"Okay." The superior took a deep breath and said, "Then I will wait for your good news."
"No problem." The other party agreed and said, "By the way, I almost forgot to ask, who is the guy who ruined our good thing?"
"You don't have to worry about it." The superior narrowed his eyes and said, "She is just a little girl from the Xu family. I will slowly settle the score with her myself."
"Then I won't worry about it." The other party no longer cared about it.
Not long after, the superior hung up the phone.
He stretched out his fingers and tapped on the desk. After a while, he picked up the phone again and dialed a number.
"Make some arrangements and have those guys from the Xu family who are keeping an eye on Xu Qianqian go and cause trouble for her." The superior ordered, "Be careful not to reveal our identities, and don't reveal your own identity either."
Having said this, the superior also gave another instruction.
"I will create opportunities for you. Whether you can control the little girl from the Xu family depends on your own ability."
After saying this, the superior immediately hung up the call without waiting for the person on the other end to respond.
In the darkness, a gloomy and terrifying voice slowly sounded.
"No matter who it is, if he dares to ruin my good deeds, I will not let him have an easy time."
Such an eventful night passed by quietly.
Not many people noticed the unrest that happened that night, and not many people knew that darkness was brewing in this base city.
When the day breaks, people will continue to do what they should do, and there will be no impact.
When the sky turns white, the college area becomes lively again.
Countless students came out of the accommodation building in twos and threes and walked to the mission hall on the first floor of the office building to start another day of mission life.
Since an appointment had been made yesterday for one person to come to the office building early and receive the better tasks first, Su Ming and the others were not in a hurry to get up. Only Ye Bai, who lost the rock-paper-scissors game last night, went out cursing. The rest of the people got up about an hour later than yesterday.
This undoubtedly gave Su Ming great convenience.
He had experienced an eventful night, and had been thinking and arranging things all night. It could almost be said that he had not slept all night.
Now, he was naturally delighted to have a chance to catch up on some sleep.
Unfortunately, the good times didn’t last long.
Not long after, someone sneaked into his room.
