Chapter 122
The man who came was stunned for a moment, then he became furious: "Su Xingyuan?! Do you know what you are doing? You are--"
"I'm threatening you. Yeah."
The voice of the black-haired boy behind him was still neither hurried nor slow. As he spoke, he gently placed the blade of the knife in his hand against the man's neck.
Instantly, the cold and sharp touch seemed to touch the prosecutor's head directly, making his scalp numb.
The words that I wanted to blurt out were stuck in my throat, neither going up nor down.
"...Don't be impulsive."
Cold sweat broke out on his back almost instantly, and he finally realized at this moment that Su Xingyuan was definitely not a kind-hearted person who would allow them to control him and rigidly follow the rules and order.
He doesn't just kill monsters... He also kills people, people like me who have done nothing but got in his way!
The prosecutor could hardly speak clearly now, his legs were shaking. If he was not afraid that the sharp knife would cut his neck when he fell, he would probably fall to the ground the next moment.
The black-haired boy smiled and retracted his knife.
"Oh, Mr. Prosecutor is so hateful of evil, I thought you would fight to the death and never give in."
The young man nonchalantly stepped over him, his hair tied up behind him swaying slightly with his movement. Then, when the prosecutor breathed a sigh of relief, he stopped, tilted his head slightly, and turned to look at the prosecutor.
The curve of his eyes was kind, and the smile on his lips was clear and perfect. Only his emerald green irises, slightly covered by shadows, reflected a hint of coldness that was completely opposite to the expression he showed, which was so disconcerting that it made people's whole body creep.
He said, "It turns out that you are just as afraid of death."
The prosecutor gritted his teeth and said, "If we were not afraid of death, if we did not cherish our lives, we would not have come here to settle accounts with you for the massacre! Who is not afraid of death?"
Su Xingli said as a matter of course: "I am not afraid of death."
The prosecutor was speechless for a moment.
He wanted to accuse Su Xingyuan, even if he was not the one standing in court in the end, as a prosecutor of a faction, he naturally investigated the black-haired boy, and the conclusion showed that the other party was really not afraid of death.
There are even many actions that seem to be aimed at exchanging one life for another... It is a very extreme, either-success-or-die style of play, especially when encountering a very strong enemy.
If Su Xingyuan knew about this, he would probably feel very wronged. He considered himself to be a very cautious person. The way he behaved did not mean that he really wanted to do it. He just looked like he had a little bit of gambling intention.
However, Su Xingyuan never paid too much attention to such unimportant and brainless NPCs. He just said cheerfully, "I advise you to make sure your name is green," then took two steps forward to Ning Baiquan and nodded to him.
He didn't care, but the people of country C who were paying close attention to the verdict and watching the live broadcast began to feel annoyed for him.
[Yes, you know you are afraid of death, but Su Xingyuan is not afraid of death, so it is natural for you to watch him risk his life to kill monsters, and you just sit back and enjoy the results, right? 】
[Don’t even think about sitting back and enjoying the fruits of others’ labor. Are these big brothers mentally ill? They want to directly destroy the fighting power of a human being! Let me ask the hunter who can slaughter all the monsters in a city and reverse the situation in J city by himself, who else could it be in these seven years except Su Xingyuan? ? 】
[It's not that he will be disabled, but it's very likely that he will be controlled... Haha, if there's trouble, he's a hunter from the Starfield, and if there's nothing wrong, he's a prisoner from the Starfield, right? 】
[If there is something wrong, please help me, if not, I will accuse you of inhumane massacre in the international court~]
[Let's talk about a conspiracy theory. Let Su Xingyuan go to Country A where the International Court of Justice is located. Will there be any powerful psychic hunters there? I don't believe these bastards don't have any hidden cards.]
…
Various speculations emerged, and the voices supporting Su Xingyuan instantly overwhelmed some confusing remarks.
From the perspective of the C country's values, there is nothing wrong with Su Xingyuan's handling of the S country incident. He can be described as a clean person. What's more, he is a C countryman who has cooperated with the Hunter Association, so of course they have to protect the hunters of their own country.
You can't let someone work hard and then be stabbed in the back, right?
Although the prosecutor didn't know what the online public opinion was like, he was very clear that his previous series of reactions were definitely embarrassing. Even if he was the one being threatened with a knife pointed at him, making a fool of himself is still making a fool of himself. But the man who committed such evil deeds had a good-looking face, and his perfect body proportions made him look casual and handsome no matter what he did.
God is so unfair, the prosecutor thought bitterly.
Ning Baiquan said to Su Xingyuan: "I have arranged the best lawyer in the country for you. Everything will go smoothly."
"Of course." Su Xingyuan said confidently.
Ning Baiquan wanted to hear affirmation, but the other party's firm answer made him choke: "..."
Ning Baiquan didn't disbelieve in Su Xingyuan's ability to make everything go smoothly, he just felt a little sympathetic for the injured brain of the A countryman.
...Well, in both the spiritual and physical sense.
He sighed imperceptibly, took a half step back, and a familiar figure appeared in front of Su Xingyuan.
"Nice to meet you, Xingyuan Hunter." Secretary Gao said calmly, "Regarding the charges against you by the International Court of Justice, I will do my best to defend you."
Su Xingyuan: "You have quite a lot of business, Miss Secretary."
Secretary Gao: "The boss likes high-quality, multi-talented people."
The prosecutor sensed something was wrong. He looked suspiciously at the woman with a high ponytail in a women's suit and asked, "Wait, whose secretary are you?"
Secretary Gao: "You should call me a lawyer. My boss is Miss Xu Banmeng, so I don't think I need to introduce myself any further."
The prosecutor's face suddenly turned ugly.
In the minds of people like them, there are always some fixed and difficult to shake ideas, that is, money and power determine everything. Therefore, even if Su Xingyuan is so powerful, they will subconsciously ignore this point, and even comfort themselves by saying "I can still find hunters of the same level. Su Xingyuan is not the only one."
However, once Xu Banmeng came out, or rather, once Lawyer Gao, who was Xu Banmeng's secretary, came out, a woman with real influence in the global financial field, they had to carefully consider their subsequent actions.
...Although I had received intelligence early on that Su Xingyuan and Xu Banmeng might have some one-time cooperative relationship, I didn't expect their relationship to be so good, so good that it was worth Xu Banmeng's support for him...Lending my most capable assistant who is rarely sent out to Su Xingyuan, doesn't that mean I am doing my best to support him?
Coupled with the influence and pressure from Country C, it will probably be difficult for the prosecution to do this time.
However, even so, the higher-ups insisted on trying Su Xingyuan. To be honest, the prosecutor didn't really understand.
He glanced vaguely at Su Xingyuan, who was chatting with Lawyer Gao while boarding the plane without any sign of nervousness, and believed in his heart that this guy must have offended someone, which was not surprising at all.
Soon, under the watchful eyes of almost the entire nation, the plane took off.
There were no reporters on the plane. Lawyer Gao calmly said to Su Xingyuan, "The boss actually had another consideration in sending me here. If I were an ordinary lawyer, I might be implicated by your actions, but I can protect myself in your hands."
Su Xingyuan: "? Don't make me sound like a villain. When have I ever failed to protect my teammates?"
Lawyer Gao said sternly, "Allow me to change my story. I can stay rational during your frightening operation."
Su Xingyuan: “…”
The prosecutor became more and more frightened the more he listened to the conversation between the two people: "…"
...So what exactly are you doing?
He changed his previous arrogant attitude and dared not say a word at least before the plane landed.
There were still a few hours left in the journey, so Su Xingyuan closed his eyes, and Lawyer Gao also kept silent and began to silently be alert to his surroundings.
Her qualities as a lawyer allow her to go to the International Court of Justice calmly, and her qualities as a warrior allow her to provide any support to Su Xingyuan at any time, including being alert to his surroundings.
Under such circumstances, the countdown for Su Xingyuan's [career upgrade] finally came to an end.

Unlike before, there was no movement in the body's position. This was the first thing Su Xingyuan discovered. He could vaguely sense that neither Lawyer Gao nor the prosecutor noticed anything wrong, and the cabin was calm, as if nothing had happened.
However, his consciousness seemed to be falling, and rising, and finally sank suddenly -
Su Xingyuan opened his eyes.
He came to Hell.
Magma surged, red stone pillars stood in the wasteland, and countless low-level hell races crowded together, fighting for a tiny bit of living space.
Those places with better locations are monopolized by pure monsters. They enjoy the best resources and even hunt low-level hell species from time to time to satisfy their own needs.
Su Xingyuan's heart moved slightly, and his perspective changed instantly, and he came to the core of hell.
This is the area where the six demon kings live.
Six palaces of different styles stand in six different directions, each clearly separated and leading a group of monsters dependent on them, without interfering with each other. Su Xingyuan recognized at a glance the lair of the fourth demon king whom he had encountered before. After all, the palace made of meat paste was indeed a bit eye-catching.
The only reason for this situation is that there is no common master in this hell.
So they each act independently, and each demon king is the king of the area to which he belongs, and even extends his tentative claws to other areas. No matter how big hell is, it is still too small for the various monsters that are multiplying crazily.
So... they turned their eyes outside of hell.
Su Xingyuan's field of vision began to expand.
The scene in hell changed rapidly.
He saw that the six demon kings had finally reached a cooperation and jointly opened a gap in the barrier between the worlds, and then they prepared their armies and sent out vanguards... The whole process was extremely fast. There was no master of Hell here, and there was no way to send a message for help or an emergency warning to the outside world. With no one to stop it, the invasion began.
——That is, the [Disaster Day] of the game world.
