"Hello?"

In late January, Hao was working on the follow-up development of the hammer stone ability, and at the same time training several teammates of Menqi.

And one day, he received a call from an unexpected person.

Yorkshire in the Twelve Earthly Branches.

"What's the matter?"

Hao sat cross-legged on a thick branch, the forest below was shrouded in a ghostly mist, and from time to time he could hear the exclamations of Anthony and Rita. This forest sea has completely become a hazy realm, he can sense every grass and tree in the dense fog, and then use Gebvich's telepathic ability to manipulate him and Menqi to hide in the shadows and launch a sneak attack on Anthony.

Two people work in a group to switch offense and defense with each other.

When he outputs his mental power to the maximum, the erosion and shielding effect of the mist on other mental qi will be more obvious, thus reducing the five senses of others.

In this situation, unknown dangers will be simulated.

Able to combine the alertness of several teammates, including intuition and sixth sense... All workouts.

It's a test course in the Dark Continent...

Hao can also do this, after all, his understanding of the Dark Continent also comes from his previous life.

I have never set foot in that land in my life, and in terms of real experience, I am certainly not as good as Bijande and Nitro.

In his heart, he informed Gebvich and Rita of the plan for the next sneak attack, and asked with a smile on the other end of the phone.

"Hao, as a three-star hunter of the association, you must return immediately! Now the situation is urgent," Yorkshire said in a deep voice.

"I've heard..."

Before the former could finish speaking, Hao took over: "The president was arrested by a certain group, and many staff members were killed and injured in this year's hunter exam... Did the other party make any requests? ”

"Not yet, but in just over half a month, many of our members who are on a mission outside have also been attacked by them... They seem to be quite familiar with our association's operating model, and after the information we have gathered, it seems that these people are related to the past history of the association... But not the crime hunters who convicted the association. Yorkshire said coldly.

"More than half a month... That's what you're looking into? ”

Hao put one hand on his thigh, and his tone was teasing.

"You!"

Yorkshire was furious.

"Don't worry, the old man is not in danger, he is Isaac Nitro... Besides, the enemy's revenge object is not the association, but v5! The leader is called Jed, the leader of the underground organization of the Hunters' Guild in the past, and he will not easily take the life of the president... What he wants to do is to let the old man disclose the truth that was concealed back then, as long as the president does not agree, he will not die for the time being... However, there may be a little torture. ”

Hazy explained in a joking tone.

"You know?!"

Yorkshire was shocked.

"Not only do I know, but Pariston must also know the origin of the other party... Let's solve it with him, I'm very busy right now. ”

He replied and prepared to put down his phone.

"Hazy !!"

On the other end, Yorkshire screamed angrily.

Hao pulled the phone away from his ear a meter away...

"Although you are a three-star hunter, you are still under the management of the association, and I still have the right to issue orders to you! Everything is not absolute, and now the president is in danger, and at the same time, other members of the association have been taken captive, and their lives and deaths are unknown... You must come back and cooperate with us in this matter! ”

"Hmm... It seems that Pariston is not going to care. ”

I heard it... That's right, as an opponent.

Nitro is mired in the mire, a scene that Pariston would love to see.

"He told you to come to me, didn't he?"

Hazy said lightly.

“……”

Yorkshire was silent, which was a tacit acquiescence.

"Your twelve earthly branches, isn't it a little too useless? It was a wise decision that I didn't join you in the first place...", not caring for Yorkshire's self-esteem and mood at all, said word by word, "This is obviously a good opportunity to show off your abilities... Consolidate the prestige of your twelve earthly branches within the association, and as a result... In the end, it was given to me! That's not going to work... The management of the association is entrusted to you, which is really not reassuring. ”

"I don't have much idea about power per se, but now I have to think about it, if there is a chance in the future, why don't I be the president? I feel... I'm going to do a good job, at least to exercise your abilities... Otherwise, your business capabilities and management status are not too compatible. ”

"Hao, you're enough!"

Yorkshire said coldly: "We just want to minimize the impact of this incident as soon as possible, and it is related to the president himself, so as to avoid long nights and dreams." ”

"Don't be hard-mouthed."

“……”

"If you can get the president back, I can consider putting you in the next presidential candidacy at some point in the future. Anyway... You've been eyeing the chairmanship for a long time, haven't you? Isn't that what you're here to be? Yorkshire also stopped beating around the bush and said bluntly.

"Finally figured it out?"

Hazy did not deny it.

His plan was figured out by Jin Fulix and Pariston early on, but the twelve earthly branches were still kept in the dark, and after so long, Yorkshire, as the brainchild of the twelve earthly branches, finally figured out what he wanted, and from this point of view, this woman still has an excellent mind.

It's just that compared to the other two, it's too inferior.

Yorkshire took the presidency candidate to get Ha out because she thought that as long as Nitro was alive, Ha would never have a chance.

She had no idea what was going on in the outside world.

Pariston didn't intervene and was understandably hiding to the side and having fun. If the president is really in danger, Jin Fulix will also show up, in other words, you don't have to worry about it at all. Have you ever wondered... The president has been arrested, and V5 has not expressed his position, let the association deal with it on its own, why? Haze reminded.

"Hao, if you don't return to the association right now, several of us will immediately sign a joint letter and apply to the above to make an exception to ban the identity of your association members!" Yorkshire threatened.

"Do you think... Did it work? ”

Haze laughed.

“……”

Yorkshire.

"Alas... Pariston is playing tricks on you by asking you to come to me. ”

"Really... For your pity, I'll be kind enough to help you once. ”

He sighed softly, finished speaking, and hung up the phone.

Then, he put away his telekinesis, and the mist in the forest sea below suddenly dispersed.

The field regained its view.

"Captain?"

Seeing this, several people who were still training and fighting quickly approached the location of the hazy one after another, not knowing what was happening.

Hao jumped from the tree and clapped his hands, "I'm going back to the association." ”

"For that?"

Men Qi thought of something.

They have also heard about the recent turmoil in the association... It caused quite a stir, after all, Nitro was captured, and he sent one of his subordinates to break into the headquarters of the association, burn himself to death in front of the public, and play a video of Nitro being imprisoned.

Although the outside world doesn't know about it yet... But the enemy's declaration of war made the hunters feel palpitations.

Hao said before that they don't have to worry, this matter is just an episode, and it will pass soon... Nitro will also return unharmed.

Now look... It is estimated that there are 12 places to spend on the surface.

"Didn't the captain say it, don't you care?" Anthony looked away.

"Nitro is constrained by some kind of oath and condition... But this ability comes at the cost of self-sacrifice, in other words, a time limit. If the time comes, the association will not announce the truth of the 'shadow' of the year, maybe the other party will really tear up the ticket. And V5, as the real perpetrator, is watching the play from the sidelines... Looking at the old party of the times, they vented their anger on the Hunter Association, they really didn't take the Hunter Association seriously at all..."

Hao rubbed his hair, "The old man can't die yet, although the chance is very small, but it's not absolute... If something really happens to him, the big scene in the future, if he doesn't have one-on-one with the ant king, it will be in trouble..."

Hao had already told his teammates about what he had foreseen.

Of course, in the name of conjecture.

The men were surprised that he knew about chimeric ants, but they believed more.

There are so many incredible things that happen to Hao, and several people are used to it.

"Even if you don't have to show up, the association can handle it, right?"

Men Qi raised his eyebrows, "This organization called Shadow is very powerful?" ”

"Normally, it's all stinky fish and rotten shrimp, except for that Jed... The association can definitely handle it, but Pariston has obviously done something to make it difficult for the twelve local branches to stand alone in the association, and they are helpless. That person likes to do such disgusting things... It seems that he is very happy to see others in a hurry. ”

Hazy pursed his lips, "That's it... I'll go first and I'll be back soon. ”

After speaking, Hao waved his hand and walked away.

"Is there something wrong with the brain? He is also a member of the association, watching the association in danger and doing such things that are detrimental to the association... What's in it for him? Anthony took a sip.

"Rats just like to hide in the dark and gnaw everywhere..."

Fante smoked a cigarette and said faintly.

……

Hazy promised to come forward.

Not for Yorkshire... Of course, there is also a little bit of a favor factor.

Originally, in his plan when he first joined the association, he was not sure if the character in the theatrical version would appear... But he then learned about Nitro's deeds of carrying forward the Hunters' Association, and did get some clues in it.

Some of them have been clearly erased.

It was in the early days of the association's rise... Now there are traces to follow, and Nitro's famous achievements all happened later.

You know, in order for the Hunters Association to reach a certain status, it must be recognized at the international level, which means... The rise of the Hunters' Association cannot be separated from the governments of various countries. In this way, the association will inevitably deal with politicians as well... And once the regime is involved, and the system of getting countries to issue documents and implement and recognize hunters will be hindered.

The rise of the Hunter Association is indispensable to the relationship between V5 and going through the back door, which is one of the reasons why today's Hunter Association obeys V5's instructions... In order to have a certain social status and seek various benefits and rights for the hunters, Nitro had to bow his head.

If you want to implement something, even with a v5 endorsement, it is far from being as easy as you think.

Judging from the Fils family's control of various countries, many countries... Not under the actual control of v5.

In the early days, in the face of some international obstacles, V5 could not solve them clearly...and the organization "Shadow" came into being.

When Hazy realizes this, he guesses that Shadow may appear...

What he thought at first was to bring Jade and the others under his command, after all, these people hated V5 very much, and they could put it in their hands and use it as a hole card or a surprise soldier. But now Hao doesn't have this idea, because the bloodline of Jade and those descendants of the 'Shadows' is of little use...

In terms of ability, except for Jed, who is more outstanding, the rest are miscellaneous fish.

Moreover, they are too few of them ... Especially after the Fils family unified the gangsters of the whole world, Hao realized that Jade and the others might not be as dangerous as the brigade group, let alone shaking a country... It's just a bluff to look at.

Hao now has a better understanding of the true power of this world.

Mankind... It's a social creature, terrifying... It's the country.

It's a huge ethnic organization.

The reappearance of the 'shadow' is just a faint flame of rekindling compared to it.

However, Hao is more interested in the energy of resentment... In addition, if you dispose of these people, you can also collect some souls and black mist, which can be regarded as making some extra money.

The woman in Yorkshire is indeed quite pitiful.

……

The building of the association's headquarters.

In the conference room, Yorkshire put down his mobile phone, his hands clenched into fists, and his face was unwilling.

She was undoubtedly humiliated by the phone call just now, which made her blush and feel powerless.

Because Hao is right...

She really didn't want to contact Hao... Not as a last resort.

In other words, whether it is Hazy or Pariston, from the beginning, Yorkshire planned to deal with this matter with her own skills, but she didn't expect that she was limited everywhere and couldn't use her hands and feet at all. Many people in the association used various reasons for her to find loopholes to arrange and give orders.

She has very few people at her disposal.

Yorkshire knew it was Pariston who was doing the trick... In desperation, she called Hao.

Compared with her personal feelings, she cares more about the association.

We can't continue to make trouble like this, otherwise the impact will get bigger and bigger.

Another point is that she is really worried about the danger of the president, even if Hao said that it will be fine, she is still not at ease.

In summary... It still depends on the hazy.

"How? He agreed? ”

Gailu, who was sitting across from Yorkshire, looked at her expression and asked.

"Hmm."

Yorkshire lowered his head and whispered back.

Under the lenses, there was a hint of tears in the corners of the eyes.

Crying...

The harder people work, the more people have higher expectations for themselves, once the reality encounters a gap, this mood will be extremely uncomfortable.

And Yorkshire is undoubtedly a very strong member of the twelve earthly branches.

"Actually... You don't need to put so much pressure on yourself, as long as things can be handled properly, wouldn't it..."Gailu saw Yorkshire's emotions, craned her chin, and said softly: "The association originally belongs to all members, and the burden is naturally everyone's... You don't have to fight it alone. ”

"But... If it were a few of them, they would all do better than me. ”

Yorkshire's eyes were red, and he looked at his partner.

"Not necessarily, there are many kinds of good aspects, and everyone deals with them differently. It may be difficult to see any results for a while, and it will take a long time, but once the thing is done, it will be safely over. And Hazy and Pariston... They may be able to deal with this turmoil in the short term, but what are the consequences? ”

Gailu smiled slightly, "Don't be sad, you have your strengths... I believe that your ability can be seen by everyone. ”

"Thank you..."

Yorkshire was encouraged by these words and regained his spirits.

"That guy Kim has no interest in management at all, and he hasn't seen anyone for many years, although his personality is also relatively bad... But in my eyes, in terms of ability alone, if one day the chairman steps down, he is the best candidate! But there is no way, considering other factors, he doesn't even have a passing level. ”

"Hehe..."

Gailu smiled.

"Actually, if the two guys, Hao and Pariston, don't have crooked thoughts, no matter who they are, I will support them... But the hateful is the hateful, they have their own thoughts, and it is difficult for the association itself to consider it. For them, the association is nothing more than a toy ... Once they are completely in power, they may abandon the association and everyone for something! I can't let them succeed, I have to protect everyone..."

Yorkshire said with a sense of justice.

However, halfway through speaking, her pupils suddenly shrank, and she thought of what Gai Lu had just said.

Everyone's way of doing things is different.

"Oops!"

"What's wrong?"

Gailu was stunned.

"Hazy... He probably won't go back to headquarters, but will go straight to the other party! ”

Thinking about it, Yorkshire hurriedly dialed Hao's number again.

But the phone kept busy and no one answered.

"This bastard, it's too nonsense!"

Yorkshire yelled angrily.

"From what we know about him, he is a very thoughtful person, and if he dares to go alone, he must have the confidence... Leave it to him. And, I think, he knows the enemy to the same extent as he seems to be above us..."

Gailu's expression froze.

"But... Even the president..."

"Although I don't like this person, I can't talk about hating it... But there is one thing, you have to admit. What he wants to do, he will accomplish... Those who are his enemies generally don't end well... Just look at Pariston, the death of Journey to the West, I think about it now... It must be inseparable from Pariston. ”

Yorkshire took a deep breath and calmed down.
