Anos stared at the direction in which the distorted black shadow had disappeared, and after confirming that the distorted black shadow had indeed left, he slowly gathered the soul energy flowing on his body, and then turned slightly sideways, facing the direction where the three of them from the shadow order.

I saw that there was a pure black crow flying back and forth around Astron at the head - it was the crow Borg of Anos.

Astron led Adelson and Baird, waved at Anos from afar, and hurried over.

"Haha, Anos, are you all right? I'm sorry I'm late. Astron came up to Anos and scratched his head, as if embarrassed that he had been late.

Although Astron was a little nervous, he could also see that Anos and the others had just experienced a battle, and he didn't rush over in time to help.

"It's fine. Anos bowed slightly, and said gratefully to the three Astrands, "You came just in time. ”

"It's timely. Fred said with a smile.

As Anos spoke, the Raven Borg, who was accompanying Astrang, flew back onto Anos's shoulder.

"You're doing a great job, Borg. Anos gently stroked Borg's feathers, but luckily Anos had already asked Borg to contact the Shadow Order before, "The gathering of our two soul hunting teams is enough to make him a mysterious man to retreat, after all, he seems to have other purposes. ”

"I don't think I'm willing to waste too much energy with us. ”

"What kind of mystery man, what is the purpose?" Although Astron could tell that the Night Curtain had just gone through a battle, he didn't see the twisted black shadow, and thought that Anos and the others had just encountered ghosts.

"A mysterious soul descendant suspected of being a soul hunter. Fred's purple eyes narrowed slightly, and he explained.

"He may be a fallen person who has fallen into the sea of hearts, and he should have a high status in the sea of fallen hearts, or very high. ”

"In the final analysis, the strength of the suspected soul hunter master will not be low anywhere. ”

"Fallen Heart......" Adelson behind Astron raised his eyebrows, Adelson is very knowledgeable and well-informed, not as simple as his eldest brother Astrand, naturally he has heard of this cult-like organization in the world of soul descendants.

"If Clara is targeted by someone who has fallen hearts...... That's a big hassle indeed. Adelson said with a solemn face.

"I suggest that it would be better to report to the council headquarters immediately. "Adson is not a reckless man, and the first thing that comes to mind is the council's headquarters in the mysterious sea.

"With the support of headquarters, we will not be struggling. ”

"It's been reported. Anos said lightly.

"What is their reply?" Edson asked with a frown when he saw that Anos was reacting flatly.

Could it be that the council doesn't care about Clara's side?

"I've sent people here, but I don't really care, and I don't think I have sent any useful people. Fred explained in place of Anos, "It's better to ask the headquarters for this kind of thing." ”

"If we don't solve the problem ourselves, by the time the people from their headquarters come, we may have already finished playing. Fred sneered and shook his head, as if he was laughing at Adson's behavior of waiting for help from headquarters.

"Either way, it's a good thing that headquarters isn't sitting idly by. ”

"When this group of headquarters personnel arrives, they may apply for more support from headquarters depending on the situation. Adelson said.

"That only if we can make it to that point. Fred rolled his eyes, "You don't know how bad we are right now. ”

"Come and see, who's behind us?" Fred moved out of the way, revealing a badly injured Hunter behind him.

When the three of them arrived, they were busy talking to Anos and the others, and they didn't notice who the person behind Fred was.

In addition, Hunter was seriously injured and did not speak.

The three of them thought it was an ordinary person who had been attacked by a ghost and died.

But now, after the three of them saw the appearance of this person clearly.

The three of them couldn't help but shrink their pupils, and their eyes were full of shock.

This is...... Hunter Senpai?!

"Hunter senior...... Is that you?" asked Hunter cautiously, was the man in front of him, covered in scars and weak, really the same senior Hunter who was always calm no matter what he faced?

It's unbelievable that someone can hurt Hunter's predecessor to such an extent in front of him.

"Huh...... It's me. Senior Hunter chuckled and said weakly.

"Senior, it's really you?!Someone can hurt you to this extent......" Astron was naturally shocked, Astron was definitely the most aware of Hunter's strength among the three people in the Shadow Order.

Astron has almost no scruples in doing things, and admires the strong, once challenged Hunter to test the strength of the former soul hunter, but in the end he ended in defeat.

Astron is already a quasi-soul hunter, but he lacks experience and attacks with reckless impulses.

But this still shows the strength of Hunter, and the strength of the person who can hit Hunt hard is even more incredible.

At least, there was no one else in the whole of Clara who could match it.

"Haha...... It's also embarrassing. Hunter smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head, "It's me who underestimated him too much, I didn't think of it...... He would have known my weaknesses. ”

Weakness?

Fred couldn't help frowning slightly.

Also, Uncle Hunter used to be a master of soul hunting, and while hunting a large number of ghosts or ghosts, he naturally accumulated some dark wounds.

It is not impossible that these dark wounds became a weakness for Uncle Hunter.

It's no wonder that this mysterious man with a twisted black shadow seems so relaxed after hitting his uncle hard.

"He should have been prepared, he might have been lurking with Clara for a long time. "I don't know what his true purpose is, and although I have a little speculation in my heart, I still can't figure it out, but I can be sure that if there is someone who might affect his plans, he will probably get rid of him." ”

"And in his eyes, I am the only person in the entire Clara who has the most ability to influence his plans. ”

"So he attacked me, and I lost the possibility of interfering too much in the aftermath. ”

"After all, I'm actually an old-timer who has spoiled the younger generations...... If something happens to the juniors, it is impossible to choose not to make a move. Hunter smiled self-deprecatingly and continued.

That would undoubtedly be a loss of much fun for him, a depraved man who took pleasure in playing tricks on people. ”

"And now I can't interfere with his plans. ”

"All that is left is you, who are not a threat to him and can be used as pawns at will. ”

"As long as you don't confront him directly, he shouldn't be able to attack you anytime soon. ”

"So I suggest that while there is still a chance, go into hiding and wait for support from headquarters. Hunter persuaded, "The current situation is beyond your control. ”

"Hide?" Fred smiled and shook his head, "If I really just hid like that, I wouldn't be Fred." ”

"I have one last move. ”

"The Tanagus family, the true power of demonization, is not something he can afford to underestimate. ”

"It's not that simple to think of us as toys and pawns. Fred's purple eyes shone with a faint cold light.

"Yes, senior, we're not that weak. Astrang patted his chest with a confident look.

"We'll consider your suggestion, senior, you should have a good rest first. Anos said to Hunter, tactfully rejecting Hunter's suggestion.

"Haha...... Uncle, I know I can't beat you. Hunter smiled wryly and shook his head, "Then I can only advise you not to act impulsively, and not to clash with him head-on unless you are absolutely sure." ”

"Good. Arnos bowed slightly, then turned his head to look at the people around him.

"Now let's exchange information and then decide on a plan of action. Anos said.

"Haha, yes. Astron haughtily agreed, "I really don't understand these plans and the like, so I'll trouble you." ”

Anos nodded, then looked at Fred to the side.

"Then let me break it down. Fred's purple eyes narrowed and he spoke.

"Now we are facing a situation that...... There is a subspecies of black dragon hiding in a ruin somewhere, the purpose is unknown, and it is suspected that it is seriously injured. ”

"Then there are unaccounted for ghosts who have absorbed dragon scales, and they may be hiding somewhere in Clara's place, and they may choose to attack us in retaliation, or they may choose to get more of the power of the subspecies of black dragons before taking revenge. ”

"Secretly, there is also this degenerate who has an unknown purpose for hitting the uncle, watching the play coldly. ”

"And the situation of our personnel is that the uncle is seriously injured and temporarily unable to move, Xia Zuo is mentally injured and needs to be cultivated, and the situation of the other Clara's soul descendants is unknown. ”

"Presumably the captain has contacted the other Soul Hunters, but they haven't replied, right?" Fred looked at Arnos.

"Yes, neither the Lighthouse nor the Sunchaser responded. Arnos bowed.

The Sunchaser, formerly known as the "Musket" team to which Hunter once belonged, is known as Clara's three major soul hunting squads along with the Night Curtain and the Lighthouse.

"So now, our combat power ......"

"The clear available combat power is the four elite soul hunters of the Night Veil, one quasi-soul hunter, and the two elite soul hunters of your shadow order, one quasi-soul hunter. ”

"In addition, there are so-called professionals who will be dispatched by the headquarters. ”

"That's it, gone. ”

"We have a big disadvantage. Adelson couldn't help but say, "In general, the enemy is equivalent to two quasi-Soul Hunters (referring to the two Soul Hunter Leaders), several Soul Hunters (ordinary Soul Ghosts), and two Soul Hunter Masters (referring to the subspecies Black Dragon and the Twisted Black Shadow). ”

"In terms of the balance of power, we are completely at a disadvantage. ”

"Yes, there is a big disadvantage. Fred smiled, "But...... They are not of one heart. ”

"We should be thankful for that. ”

"As long as they don't work together against us at the same time, we still have a chance to turn defeat into victory. ”

"Defeat one by one, turn defeat into victory?" Edson asked rhetorically.

"Yes. Fred smiled, "So now we need to have a proper plan." ”

"The first move...... How exactly do you ......?" said Fred.

"Let's take Senior Hunter back first. Arnos glanced at the seriously injured Hunter, even if the soul descendant's self-healing ability is strong, but that is limited, the elixir that Hunter drank just now is just an emergency treatment, and then let Hunter drag the injury alone, Hunter's injury may worsen.

Moreover, if Hunter can recover from his injury sooner, the Arnos people will have a better chance of coping with this incident.

"But what about that subspecies black dragon?" asked Jasmine, who had been silent and didn't speak, "Wouldn't Xia Zuo's soul tracking be in vain?"

“...... There's no way around it. Fred shrugged slightly, and said helplessly, "Our actions have been disrupted by this Fallen, and I even wonder if this Fallper is helping this subspecies of Black Dragon......"

"We've lost the best time now. Anos said regretfully, "I can only retreat temporarily." ”

“...... That's it. Jasmine finally nodded slowly, and returned to silence again.

"Let's go, uncle. Fred carefully picked up Hunter.

"Excuse me, Fred. Hunter couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly, and then, with the help of Fred, dragged his body that seemed to be filled with lead, step by step.

"You're too slow. Astron couldn't help but walk up to Fred, grin at Fred, and asked Fred to hand over Hunter to him.

"Here you come, then. The corners of Fred's mouth lifted and he smiled.

"Haha, look at it. Astrang laughed, and then, under Hunter's helpless gaze, carried Hunter on his back.

Astrang carried the strong Hunter on his back, still with a relaxed face, and strode forward, walking even faster than Fred.

"Yo, yes, then I'll leave it to you. Fred smiled, and after relaxing his body, his eyes were involuntarily drawn to the sky in the distance.

When everyone didn't pay attention, the sky that should have been blue and pure had already appeared with dark clouds, and the sky was getting darker, as if it was dusk.

A gust of cold wind blew suddenly, gently brushing everyone's faces, making everyone feel a little chill.

"It's going to rain......" Fred whispered.
