Callumen's private room was adorned with all sorts of extravagant and vulgar knick-knacks, and from the point of view of buying them simply to show off his wealth, Carrumen Haas should have had a good conversation with President Markney.

In this luxurious decoration, the four bodyguards stood dutifully, revealing a smell of blood unique to the battlefield.

"Arras, fight the Serpent of Bodyeater. What do you think? ”

Karuman rested his hands on his cheeks, his rough fingers caressing his freshly groomed beard.

“……”

Arras gestured to sign language, and Dio helped explain: "He said, let him run." However, with his arms and jaws torn off, the Snake was not as difficult to deal with as he thought. ”

Carrumen sighed and shifted his gaze to Dior: "I didn't expect you to know sign language." ”

"I know a little bit about it."

"Hmph, then I've really found a treasure. I ask you, what do you think of the Eater Serpent's actions this time? ”

Dio paused, sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "Regarding their purpose this time, I think that they are trying to contain the actions of the Karumen consortium. ”

"How so?"

Karuman was in high spirits, and his eyes shone with appreciation.

As an arms dealer, this kind of discerning eye must not be bad. Maybe Karumen is not a good fighter, but he is definitely a smart man.

"The behavior of the Body Eater Snake this time can simply be described as reckless. Although they took advantage of our 'sabotage of their plans' to resurrect the ancient beasts, they did not cooperate with the beasts to deal a blow to us. A closer look at their attitudes reveals that they don't think that the griffon will cause us any trouble, but that it will cause the Karumun consortium to soar in prestige. Even though we weren't involved in the griffon's hunt, they used the second tactic of armoured siege to force us to do it. So, I think, the goal of their operation this time is to increase the prestige of the Karuman consortium in Crossbell. ”

“…… Interesting, continued. ”

Dior's idea coincided with that of Carrumen. Such a simple trap, there is no reason why Karumen can't see it. However, after weighing the pros and cons, Karuman decided to use this incident to raise his reputation. Perhaps this is the so-called yang conspiracy, and Karuman clearly knows the other party's goal, but still chooses to obey.

However, as a hunter, Dior was a little surprised that he could see through this strategy so easily. Mussel looked surprised, and Arras looked at Dio with a solemn face. This newcomer wisely does not look like a hunter.

"Then, the most troublesome thing that will increase the prestige of the Karumen consortium is naturally the autonomous state government. They will do everything they can to suppress us and watch us. Perhaps neither the police department nor the commander of the garrison can be relied upon, but the deputy commander of the garrison, Brigadier General Sonya, and the Dudley investigator of the Search Section 1 will not let us go easily. I thought that was the purpose of the Snake of Body. Build up more enemies for us by raising our prestige, thereby weakening our ability to fight against the Devouring Serpent. The greatest advantage of the Devouring Serpents is their subtlety, so they want to use this to the extreme to fight us. ”

"Hmph, that kind of guy, I can pick them all by myself."

The little bodyguard, Mussel said disdainfully, rubbing his left arm. Traces of bandages could be faintly visible from the cuffs of his suit, and the reaction force from the full force of the spear's attack could not completely counteract its effects even if he was equipped with special armor.

Mussel was unhappy. First is Lancet, this guy is not so much a madman, but a psychopath, and he can do anything when his brain is hot, which gives Mussel a headache, and then Dior, this guy and Lanster are completely two extremes, calm, rational, wise, peaceful, tolerant, just like the saint of the Qiyao Church, working with this guy, Mussel will always feel that he is still far behind.

The relationship between Mussel and Dio is like that of a hot-blooded general and a calm and calm military advisor.

Really, newcomers are like this one by one...... Give me a little respect for my seniors! Mussel thought so, so he thought of crushing the enemy in one breath to declare his existence.

"No, that's right in the hands of the Snake of Death. What they want is for us to mess around and not see the facts. Have you heard of Liberal's mutation? ”

"Is it a new variety of bread?"

Rance suddenly interjected, and before he could finish speaking, Dio picked up a golden statue and slammed it against Randster's mouth. The upper half of the golden figure sank into Leinster's mouth, propping up his throat into a horrible bulge.

"Shut up!"

"Woo woo woo (I know, let go of me, I'm going to die, I'm going to die)"

"I know."

Carrumen vaguely knew what Dio was going to say, and he ignored the bodyguards' routine tricks and motioned for Dio to continue.

"In Liber's mutation, the Body-Eater Serpent, which had been in secrecy, suddenly appeared and displayed combat power beyond the norm. Its objectives...... It is a sacred object called the Seven Supreme Treasures. Based on the strength they displayed during the Liber Anomaly, this organization has been around for at least 10 years, and it can't be less. So, the fact that an organization can hide for 10 years speaks volumes about its secrecy, so why did he provoke us immediately after triggering the Liber mutation? Moreover, in Crossbell, they have clearly sent executors to confront us head-on, which is not in the strengths and interests of this organization. The most plausible explanation is that the Body-Eater Serpent discovered that one of the Seven Treasures was in Crossbell, and at this time, the Karumon Consortium was preparing to settle in Crossbell, and the Body-Eater Serpent hoped to use the conflict to divert our attention, so as not to let us have leisure to take care of them, there is an old saying in the East called 'black under the lamp'. Of course, it may be that the treasure is somewhere else, and Crossbell is just a trick to attract our attention. That's my analysis. ”

Silent.

Obviously just a hunter, but he talks like a qualified conspirator.

Carrumen once again updated his impression of Dior. Karumon only thought that the Body-Devouring Serpent would use his prestige to suppress him, but he didn't expect that there would be such a thing as the Seven Supreme Treasures.

Listening to Dior, it seems to make a lot of sense.

"Dior-kun, you just said ......"

Karumun's eyes narrowed, trying his best to hide his suspicions.

"Provoke us as soon as you cause the Liber mutation...... Where did you get this information? The confrontation between the Karumon Consortium and the Snake of Death. ”

Moreover, there are some other things in Dior's words that make Carroumen care. But it was still this, which made him feel the strangest the most.

"As a hunter, don't you need to know who you are?"

Without the slightest waver, Dior said earnestly. That kind of calm coping ability even Karumon felt that what he said did make sense.

"Hmph, that's great. With your help from Dior, it's really ...... Are you interested in jumping into our Karumun consortium, the treatment is up to you, as long as you open it, I can afford it. There is no second price. ”

"I'm sorry, but that bastard wouldn't have survived without me."

"Woo woo woo (I'm so impressed!) ）”

"Don't cry and pounce, you bastard! Disgusting to death! ”

Looking at the laughter of the two, Karumen was full of regret, and it seemed that the two of them could not be separated.

Dior really accidentally exposed a lot of things. Or is it deliberately hinting at me something? Really, I've got two incredible bodyguards for myself.

But that's the fun. Cross Bell, it's so much fun!

――――――――――――――――――――――――

On the other side, the Devouring Serpent Society has a stronghold.

"I said you two, don't mess around with me! Now is not the time to launch Project Phantom Flame, you two don't mess with me! ”

The third apostle of the snake (the Three Pillars) of the Eater Serpent was an alternate and angrily condemned the two in front of him.

The phantom was still wearing a simple kimono, a fan around his waist, and a ring in both hands. On the other hand, the Dragon of Judgment waved its newly grown arms, as if to confirm their fit with their bodies. It is more appropriate to say that it is "flattened" rather than "newly grown".

The Dragon of Judgment was heavily wounded and had his flesh cut off in several places, and had previously responded to Arras's provocation by single-handedly taking on Arras...... As a result, I know how miserable he is now.

The severed hands have now been reborn, the torn off jaws have also grown, and all kinds of small scars have been restored. The only thing that makes people feel strange is the scales of the newborn parts. Like fish scales, the dense red scales covered his new pink skin, and it looked extremely strange.

It seems that it is not the wound that is restored, but the body tissue of the dragon is directly transplanted to recover.

But even with this tragic image, the Dragon of Judgment still hasn't broken his habit of penchanting for broken thoughts.

"So, we're here to help the Three Pillars, not to make trouble. If we don't keep Karumon at bay, they'll cause irreparable damage to the Phantom Flame Project later, you know? Those guys are outright war madmen, and they said, madman, that Arras is simply crazy, and he pounced on the dragon's breath, I have never seen such a desperate person, and they all say that reality is smaller than ......."

"Shut up! Phantom, tell me why you came back to Crossbell. ”

"Annihilation of humanity. My goal, from beginning to end, is only this. ”

“………… Oh, my God! I'm going to ask the Alliance Master to transfer you two guys back! Can you make less trouble for me! My plan needs to be hidden! Do you two guys really understand how to write secretly! ”

"I'll write, I'll write. An ear knife on the left, an urgent one on the right, ah spelled C-O-V ......"

"Who asked you this!"

"Didn't you ask me!"

"I've had enough of you! Don't interfere with the plan for me, or don't blame me for turning the other cheek. Really, can you two give me some self-respect. ”

"Okay, you don't need to be so angry. We're an organization, and I'm not going to cheat you. ”

"I will believe you once...... So, will the Karumon Consortium really make an impression of the Phantom Flame Project? ”

"Definitely."

As soon as the Dragon of Judgment finished speaking, he saw the cold gaze of the candidate of the Three Pillars.

"Uh...... Should it be? ”

"Staring—"

"Okay okay, I don't know ......"

"Enough...... Did anyone else come to Crossbell besides the two of you? I know more or less about the implementers of the plan. ”

"...... Return"

"And NO.18, Osiris, the god of death under the moon, is also here."

If the phantom interrupted the Dragon of Judgment coldly, if he continued, it would be difficult to guarantee that the candidate of the Three Pillars would not go crazy.

"Death under the moon...... It's gloomy, but it's much better than the two of you! Okay, that's it...... You should pay attention to me in the future, although I have no authority to command you, but you should also consider my position. ”

"Yes."

"Hi Hi Hi ......"
