Chapter 157



Chapter 157

A continuous rumbling sound echoed throughout the usually quiet Hunter Base. It was the sound of swords smashing against buildings, destroying everything.

The black-haired boy came over holding the long sword. He has always been famous for his swordsmanship, and the ability analysis done by various forces for him has never mentioned weapons such as swords. The few hunters who remained at the hunter base had never seen the sword beside him, but they felt the same sense of oppression.

...Su Xingyuan, it turns out he just likes using a knife.

"Commander! In five minutes at most, Su Xingyuan will destroy all defense systems. We can't hold on any longer!!"

Originally, due to the birth of the special form of the portal, a large number of people left behind in the Hunter Base were reduced. If it were not for the special defense system, even the commander himself would not be qualified to open it. It would require obtaining consent from multiple high-level officials, which would be time-consuming and laborious. The collections here might have been evacuated along with the others.

But there are no ifs in this world.

The hunters left behind in Country A tried to stop Su Xingyuan one after another, but it was of no use. To Su Xingyuan, they were no different from the monsters that attacked him. There was no need to hold back and he could just beat them.

As long as they don't have any deep hatred towards the players, nothing serious will happen to them. At most they will just hit the floor and break a few ribs.

To put it bluntly, they are all just workers. Su Xingyuan has just solved an S-level portal. No normal person would have such deep hatred and murderous intent.

Su Xingyuan heard the sound of helicopter propellers approaching in the distance. He did not react at all and went straight into the bottom floor of the hunter base, which was also the area where all the props of great value were stored.

"There are a lot of good things here." Su Xingyuan tilted his head slightly, his eyes sliding across the sealed cabinets, and he happily began to replenish his backpack.

Abbreviated as zero-yuan purchase.

Special form of magic core? Collect it and go back to feed the little dragon.

A high-level magic wand seized from the portal? Collect and sell to the magician in Tongtian Tower in exchange for magic crystals.

The eyes of the sea spider Gorri? Who knows what materials can be synthesized?

Regardless of whether they were useful or not, or whether he could obtain them or not, as long as they were within his field of vision, Su Xingyuan stuffed them all into his backpack. He did not even waste the sealed cabinets, and he even took away the lighting stones next to them.

So when the superior hurriedly got off the plane, what greeted him was the warehouse that was once well-stocked with supplies but was now completely deserted.

Commander: “…”

Su Xingyuan, what have you done? Su Xingyuan! !

Since this matter was essentially caused by his failure to fulfill his promise in time, the officer could already foresee the reprimand and punishment he might receive after the matter was over. Cold sweat kept pouring down his face, and when he saw the black-haired boy who had already reached the deepest part, his pupils suddenly shrank and he shouted uncontrollably:

"stop!!"

The black-haired boy did not stop his actions. He didn't even flutter his eyelashes. He completely ignored his superior and the people he brought with him, and continued to open the sealed cabinet containing the last item.

——There is a pair of silver knives placed inside.

Although they are also silver knives, their appearance is completely different from the Broken Moon Knife. If the Broken Moon Blade is like the clear silver light cast by the crescent moon, then these two knives are like the white mist in the early morning.

Wet, cold, and untouchable.

"Those are our national treasures!" The officer almost lost his voice: "Su Xingyuan, you'd better put them down--"

“Clang.”

The black-haired boy directly pulled out the longer knife. The extremely sharp but inexplicably hazy knife went straight into his pupils.

He exclaimed: "What a beautiful knife."

Seeing this scene, the commander's limbs turned cold and his brain went blank. He knew that Su Xingyuan might have to have the pair of swords today.

This pair of swords can be given to anyone except Su Xingyuan from Country C, who is a top-level combat hunter with swords!

Otherwise... he will definitely pose a greater threat!

As if he knew what the officer was thinking, the black-haired boy tilted his head slightly, finally looked at him, and said with a smile: "I just happened to need a new knife, and this pair of knives appeared in front of me. Isn't this a special fate?"

The officer was angry but dared not say anything: "..."

...What the hell is fate!

This is clearly the fate that you snatched away, okay? !

He winked, signaling the two S-rank hunters he brought with him to attack Su Xingyuan, but the black-haired boy seemed to be completely unaware and just lowered his eyes to stare at the newly acquired pair of swords.

【Name: Mist】

[Description: A pair of swords forged by forging elves and made from forty-two rare materials. They are of different lengths, consisting of two knives, one long and one short. 】

[1. It has a very strong concealment property, which allows the holder to remain hidden during magic detection; 2. It has a penetrating effect, which can ignore the enemy's physical defense and 30% magic defense; 3. It is engraved with an auxiliary magic circle, which can reduce magic consumption by 20%. After equipping, Strength +40, Agility +15, Intelligence +5]

[Note: Special weapons can be equipped at the same time as ordinary weapons]

He remembered that the fourth demon king's scarlet sword was also a special weapon. The rarity, durability, and strength of this weapon far exceed those of ordinary weapons.

Now that I have this pair of knives, I can throw the Bloody Red into the backpack first.

Putting the short [Mist] back into the backpack and holding the long sword in his hand, the black-haired boy carefully closed the scabbard of the long sword. At this moment, two attacks from S-level hunters rushed towards him from different directions at the same time!

The two people brought by the commander are both wizard professional hunters who are good at long-range magical attacks. What is different from ordinary wizards who use magic circles and chant spells is that their speed is incredibly fast, so fast that it even seems that they have omitted the preparations for casting spells.

The speed at which they cast spells is no different from that of a mobile magic turret in battle, and because they are mages by profession, there is no way to predict the effects of the spells they cast.

These two mages were originally trained by Country A as one of its trump cards and have never appeared in the outside world. If the Hunter Base had not fallen this time, Country A would never have let them take action.

The commander is certain that Su Xingyuan does not know their abilities and special features. In this case, no matter how strong Su Xingyuan is, what can he do? A seriously injured melee hunter faces two mages who can almost cast instantly, the result is obvious!

In just a moment, the spell reached Su Xingyuan's eyes and exploded a terrifying magic wave on his body!

Neither of them held back. Firstly, any treasure stored here would not be so easy to destroy. Secondly, it would be better for the Xingyuan Hunter to die when no portal appeared.

The magical fluctuations slowly dissipated and the vision gradually became clear.

Several people tensed up and squinted their eyes involuntarily, looking for the black-haired hunter who was shot.

"…Are you looking for me?"

Suddenly, a familiar young boy's voice appeared in the ear of one of the mages without any warning!

The black-haired boy had moved behind him without him knowing. His feet had not even touched the ground yet. He looked as light as a flying swallow or as formless mist. He approached the wizard's ear without any sense of distance, but the knife in his hand broke the wizard's chest in an instant without any hesitation!

"elder brother!"

Another wizard who witnessed this scene had bloodshot eyes. He raised his staff without hesitation and instantly cast several attack spells at Su Xingyuan!

However, this instantaneous magic, which was so fast that it could be said to be terrifying, did not even reach the corner of the black-haired boy's clothes.

Every time, he seemed to be able to avoid the attack just right.

The black-haired boy maintained a movement speed that was only slightly faster than the other party, and just as casually, he moved to the side of the mage in the same way.

"I heard that once a mage is approached..." the black-haired boy asked softly, "he can prepare his last words, right?"

Hearing the sound of him suddenly pulling in, the mage's pupils suddenly shrank, and he reflexively wanted to use defensive magic to protect himself. However, before his magic took effect -

“Sizzle.”

The long knife, as unpredictable as the morning mist, had already cut off his head.

It was not until he died that he finally understood one thing.

Even though Su Xingyuan was seriously injured, he was no longer someone that an ordinary S-level hunter could fight against. Every component of his terrifying fighting qualities would be an ability that would enable anyone else to stand out.

For example...

Even faster than instant magic.

Su Xingyuan retracted the knife.

He finally turned around and looked at his superior who had begun to tremble, with no emotion in his eyes.

"The person you brought with you seems to have deep ill intentions towards me."

The black-haired boy sighed helplessly and walked down step by step.

“Why should we hate each other?”

He stood in front of his superior.

At this time, the man could no longer stand and fell to his knees on the ground with a plop. The man supported his body with his arms and said tremblingly: "I don't hate you... I represent Country A, you represent Country C, we represent the friendship between our two countries..."

"But you broke your promise."

The black-haired boy interrupted the man lightly.

"I trusted you so much that I was willing to help you conquer the tricky special portal without any deposit. But after I crawled out of the gates of hell and fulfilled my promise, what did you do?"

He said gently, "You got away, sir."

Even though the words were merciless, this tone gave people the illusion of being extremely gentle. The officer couldn't help but feel a little lucky. He lowered his posture to the lowest level and said with humiliation: "We did something wrong in this matter, and now you have obtained so many treasures we have collected. Can this matter be written off? We need funds to maintain this country-"

"What does your country have to do with me?" The black-haired boy interrupted the man again. He seemed a little surprised and said, "Did I not express myself clearly enough? What I took away now is just the interest I collected."

He straightened the corners of his lips, suppressed his smile, and finally revealed the coldness beneath his gentle mask. He approached the frightened man and whispered:

"If your country can't even afford the promised six million magic crystals..."

"This country, including you," the tip of the knife was pressed against the man's throat, "I'm afraid there is no need for this country to exist anymore, right?"
