Chapter 229
Su Xingyuan tried it. Although the door of the temple was still open, he was accurately blocked outside. It was obvious that the angel had set restrictions on him when he was still alive, but he was just one step too late.
After thinking for a moment whether he could throw a TNT in to blow up the shrine and failing, Su Xingyuan stopped fighting with the shrine and jumped down lightly, landing on the ground.
He skillfully dodged the enthusiastic crowd, and disappeared as soon as he put on his invisibility cloak. He quietly arrived at the Hunter Association headquarters, where Ning Baiquan's office was located.
"I knew you would come."
Deputy Commander Ning poured a cup of tea and handed it to Su Xingyuan, who was taking off his invisibility cloak at the door, and said with a smile.
Su Xingyuan did not consider himself an outsider. He came in and took the tea. He glanced at Ning Baiquan's smile and said confidently, "After all, I don't have any other place to stay here."
Ning Baiquan's smile froze: "..."
This sentence sounds fine at first glance, but doesn't it mean that Su Xingyuan treats the Hunter Association as his second home?
However, when Su Xingyuan mentioned it, he remembered that Su Xingyuan actually had no place to live here. The house that was originally planned to be arranged for him after his hunter level was assessed was not implemented due to various reasons. The main thing was that Su Xingyuan disappeared without a trace all day long at that time, and always carried a lot of accidents with him. Ning Baiquan got a headache whenever he thought about it, so he forgot about it.
He coughed dryly, calmly took out his computer, and searched for the high-end apartment that was originally decided to be allocated to Su Xingyuan: "Let me see, in this area... Look, it's still reserved for you."
Su Xingyuan took the computer and took a look at it.
Su Xingyuan: "This building seems to have collapsed."
Ning Baiquan: “?”
Su Xingyuan: "Unfortunately, it happened on the day of the insect plague."
Ning Baiquan: “…”
He hesitated to speak, and then thought of how Su Xingyuan was one of the first unlucky people to be infected when the plague came. He couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Your luck... I've never seen it before."
Normally, people's fortunes follow the principle of conservation. It is indeed very rare to find someone like Su Xingyuan who is in trouble all the time.
The black-haired boy spread his hands innocently, which he couldn't explain, but he was already used to the players' accident-prone physique.
"Let's go. Today we've notified everyone to take a holiday. We can finally have a good rest," Fang Mujian rushed out of the office after packing up his things in a hurry. "This time I want to take a full year's annual leave!"
He looked at Su Xingyuan expectantly: "Which restaurant are we going to?"
Su Xingyuan: "Good question. There may be no restaurants open today."
Fang Mujian's expression was visibly petrified.
"It's okay. I'll treat you."
A familiar female voice came from outside the door. Xu Banmeng smiled and walked into the office with his secretary. He started by saying the same thing as Ning Baiquan before: "I knew you would come here. Remember to come to our Tongtian Tower anytime. Your name is registered in all our major hotels, and suites are always available."
Su Xingyuan listened attentively: "For example?"
Xu Banmeng casually gave an example.
Su Xingyuan: "That building seems to have collapsed as well."
It seemed that he was the one who fished the people inside out.
Xu Banmeng, who had not taken care of his business in the past few days, said: "..."
Several people looked at each other and tacitly skipped the topic of where to stay. Ning Baiquan also decided to mention the Hunter Association headquarters less in front of Su Xingyuan in the future, to avoid him going home one day and wanting to come back to work, only to find that his office was gone.
…
Wait, why is he afraid of having no place to work?
Mr. Ning Baiquan suddenly realized that he seemed to be obsessed with his work and fell into deep self-doubt.
Su Xingyuan had already left the Hunter Association building with Xu Banmeng and the others and walked towards Boss Xu's nearest property.
Although Fang Mujian considered himself to be just an ordinary A-level auxiliary hunter, he did not have any special emotions when walking with a big boss like Xu Banmeng. However, he still felt some indescribable subtle embarrassment when facing Su Xingyuan. After all, the psychological trauma of having once made a bold statement "beating this kid up" could not be easily eliminated in a short period of time.
Su Xingyuan asked casually, "I remember when I first met you, you had a partner - her name was Fan Ling. How is she now?"
After the topic was opened, Fang Mujian's mood suddenly relaxed a lot, and he replied: "She is the captain of the investigation team in J City. We met not long ago. She is much more stable now. She will apply for level assessment again soon. By then, we may have another real A-level hunter."
Xu Banmeng said with interest: "This name sounds like a girl. If it's a combat type..."
The secretary who was listening quietly said calmly, "Boss, the number of excellent hunters you have recruited this year has reached the upper limit you set. If you poach more, our hunter resources will really overflow."
Upon hearing this, Xu Banmeng regretfully gave up the idea of using money to impress this A-level hunter who would be remembered by Su Xingyuan.
"What about the two siblings from the Xin family?" Fang Mujian had also been curious about some things for a long time: "They should be fine now, right? After all, they went with you."
If you were to ask where is the safest place in this world, Fang Mujian felt that there was probably no place better than Su Xingyuan. Let’s not talk about how terrifying this guy’s strength is. Few people can do anything under his nose. Just talk about his character. Even if a stranger is in danger, the black-haired boy will help when he finds out, not to mention the children he has personally taken in.
However, when it comes to the Xin brothers and sisters, Fang Mujian still feels a little guilty. If he had noticed their situation earlier when he was working in J City, perhaps many of the subsequent things could have been avoided in advance, and J City would not have suffered that disaster, forcing Su Xingyuan to rush back from abroad and exposing a trump card.
"They are in pretty good condition." Su Xingyuan did not point out Fang Mujian's thoughts, but just said: "Maybe in a while they will be able to completely leave that land and come back to school. By then, we will have to arrange a new school for them."
Fang Mujian was stunned: "Come back to school?"
"Of course." The black-haired hunter said as a matter of course, and gave Fang Mujian, who didn't react for a moment, a strange look, as if the question he asked was very unreasonable: "There is no illiterate in the territory."
Fang Mujian: “…”
This guy Su Xingyuan definitely did this on purpose. Besides, he is Ning Baiquan's right-hand man, he is not illiterate!
They didn't go far, and just at this time, Ning Baiquan caught up and made a perfect decision with Fang Mujian: "Go back to sleep after the dinner, and then deal with the accumulated official business after sleep."
The two of them have been working non-stop at a high intensity these days. If it weren't for the aftereffects of the excitement just now, they would have fallen asleep long ago.
Ning Baiquan's eyes swept across the street. The number of casualties in Country C in this catastrophe was far less than expected, so the atmosphere in the city was not depressed. Although it is normal for people to have some psychological trauma under the influence of successive disasters, after Su Xingyuan directly cut off the head of the culprit in front of the whole world and completely purified the curse in front of them, the uncontrollable anxiety in the society was instantly eliminated, and cheerful smiles reappeared on the faces of these people who have become stronger and stronger in the past seven years.
Emotions are contagious. Ning Baiquan looked away, thinking of what happened during the plague. He said in a rare relaxed tone, "As expected, the rule that bad things will happen when you say 'Let's have a dinner party after this is over' only appears in literary works—"
Su Xingyuan, who was originally chatting with a few people around him, suddenly stopped.
Ning Baiquan: “…”
Ning Baiquan's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and a bad premonition emerged at the same time as Su Xingyuan's actions. Ning Baiquan called it a specific intuition about a certain S-level hunter after spending a long time with Su Xingyuan.
"I'm sorry."
The black-haired boy sighed softly and looked at Ning Baiquan with an expression that said, "I told you this wouldn't work." "You didn't like what I said before, so come down and live now."
Ning Baiquan asked slowly: "...what happened?"
Getting things clearly was his last act of stubbornness. After all, it was not impossible for Su Xingyuan to use his superb acting skills to make a joke.
"To put it simply, a fish slipped through the net, and it was one of the six gods." Su Xingyuan briefly introduced: "This person had a good relationship with the angel I just killed, and they were always inseparable. I took advantage of the opportunity when he came down to spy on me and killed the angel directly. He must hate me to the core now, right?"
Xu Banmeng closed the fan in his hand and speculated: "If I'm not mistaken, with your current strength, it's more than enough to kill a god. So the problem is not that "He" has become a fish that slipped through the net, but what this fish that slipped through the net did...right?"
“Absolutely!”
The black-haired boy smiled and said, "The big boss is very smart. According to the steward in my territory, he felt that something unusual had happened in the palace. It seemed that after the black shadow escaped from my territory, it directly returned to the palace using the portal unique to the gods. And now, if nothing unexpected happens..."
"It seems that the remaining god wants to pull the entire temple down from the sky and perish with us."
After these words were spoken, there was a moment of silence among them.
Ning Baiquan: "...Did I hear it wrong? Say it again."
Su Xingyuan repeated thoughtfully: "Smash the Divine Palace down and perish together."
He smiled and said, "Hearing his description, the Shrine is just like a meteorite. If it falls directly, the first thing it will hit is the world barrier, right? I wonder which one will collapse first?"
He had just saved the game before letting the black shadow leave. He was quite curious about the sight of the entire temple falling directly from the sky.
