The Death List Novel - Chapter 239

Chapter 239 Urban Hegemony War

“You and Hansen want to disband the team?” Hearing Hill’s news, Qin Lun was not very surprised.

In fact, he had this premonition since Nars returned. How could a shepherd and a disciple, who were so proud of themselves, tolerate him throwing them too far away? If they continued to stay on the same team and carry out the same main mission with Frank’s help, the two of them would be doomed to fall behind him by half a step.

‘”It’s not disbanding, it’s transferring ownership of the guild. The three of us are in the same guild and our profit margins are too low. Hansen and I intend to join a small guild and also look for a subordinate apostle or a highly intelligent summoned creature!” Hill said without concealing anything.

“Haha, then I wish you all good luck. We’ll work together when the mission is harder in the future!” Qin Lun secretly laughed. In the eyes of ordinary people, these murderers’ mental states were a bit abnormal. It was difficult to find a loyal servant like Frank. He could only wish them good luck.

After turning off the communication, Qin Lun pondered for a moment in the hall. He did not tell Hill about the information he had just obtained about the Apostle Alliance and the plane trading field. Since the guild would be transferred, there was no need for him to share precious information with the two of them.

This was something he had exchanged for a skill scroll worth 100,000 broken crystals. In any case, the two of them would be able to detect it themselves in a while. The reason why they were competing with each other now was also to fight for their position in the Killer Demon Team in the future. It would be good to have a bit more of a lead.

“It has been several days. It seems that the lost female expert will not send anyone to discuss a few pieces of archer equipment with me!” Qin Lun gently shook his head, pushed open the door and walked out of the villa towards the city mercenary station. He planned to follow Hill and Hansen’s example and find a temporary team to join first.

There was no disappointment in his heart. The Flamingo Skill Scroll was given to repay Kelly’s favor and was also an investment. However, since it was an investment, there would be times when the investment would fail. There was nothing to regret.

What Qin Lun didn’t know was that there was a fierce debate about him in a small half-plane at the Corner of the Abyss.

For a large guild like Lost, the main force and core members did not reside in the Horn of the Devil. Instead, some planar devices were used to create a small half-plane as a place for activities. These planar devices were connected to the core of the apostolic city, and there were more than one entrance and exit, both inside and outside the city.

The lost guild base was similar to an ancient European castle. It stood at the top of a high cliff, and there was only a small path down the mountain leading to the castle gate. A large party had many enemies, and such a half-plane castle greatly avoided the sudden attack of the enemies.

Inside the castle, there were independent material warehouses, arenas, restaurants, and leisure places. The lower floor was a member’s room, and the upper floor was a conference hall and a core control room, which monitored the entire half of the plane.

At this moment, in the conference hall on the top floor of the castle, several high-ranking officials were meeting. The conference hall was decorated somewhat like an ancient European court, with a young elf wearing a large coat sitting on the throne.

The elf had a high nose bump and a pair of thick eyebrows that extended towards the corners of her forehead like razors. Her deep eyes carried a trace of a rare vicissitude at her age.

Beneath the young elf’s left hand sat a Sword-browed Star Bladesman. The macheteman’s eyes flashed with a sharp gaze as he opened and closed them. Across from him sat a gentle-looking young man, playing with the nail-knife in his hand, with a smile at the corner of his mouth, who looked with interest at his companions in the room.

The macheteman and the young man were seated at the bottom of their heads. The female apostle on the left was sitting in a high cloud bun, holding a purple staff in her hand. She wore a white magic robe that mowed the ground. She was an extremely beautiful elf.

The female apostle on the right formed a completely opposite temperament to her. The female apostle wore a loose set of martial dao uniforms, almost unable to completely cover the pair of majestic peaks in front of her chest. He wore open-fingered gloves with both hands and only a pair of herringbone clogs under his feet.

Her long, black hair was tied into a ponytail. A red ribbon was tied to her forehead. She was dressed like a hot-blooded martial artist and looked exceptionally capable. She was Kelly, a high-level female expert who had dealt with Qin Lun several times.

They had just discussed an important matter, and now they were free to talk about Kelly.

“Guild Leader, it has been three days. Shall we let Morning Star come into contact with that beginner apostle?” Kelly sat in her seat with a gloomy expression.

Three days ago, when Qin Lun handed her the [Flamingo] skill scroll, Kelly no longer had any intention of trading. Instead, the idea of recruiting Qin Lun became even more intense. However, after she hurriedly found the Guild Leader, a few disappointed executives advised her to wait for a few days to test Qin Lun’s follow-up reaction.

It wasn’t that the upper echelons didn’t care about Kelly’s reaction. As long as the team members reached the main force level, they would basically understand this careless elder sister. Although Kelly was a girl, she was heroic, unrestrained, and had an inexplicable sense of mission.

In other words, Kelly was a typical, thick, hot-blooded, paranoid, violent woman!

Logically speaking, an apostle with such a personality would not be able to survive in the shattered starry sky. However, Kelly was a special case. She was a female martial artist before she entered the fragmentary starry sky.

After entering the shattered starry sky, Kelly had no awareness of being a woman at all. He had gathered a group of followers in the heroic state, killing off all directions in the early Low Demon World, winning the name of “Golden Jackal” for his former guild.

This nickname referred to Kelly’s status as a Golden Apostle, while the Jackal undoubtedly referred to the style of her guild. As a team led by a woman, she was labeled as a jackal, which showed how fierce and arrogant Kelly was back then.

Unfortunately, as Kelly reminded Qin Lun, their guild soon weakened as the difficulty of the world increased. Kelly was in a difficult situation. Her old teammates died in the mission world one by one. The entire team was shattered, and it was difficult to fill in the vacancies of the old players with new blood.

At this time, it was only the loss of a medium-sized guild. They extended a helping hand and the entire Golden Jackal Guild merged into the loss. The Lost Guild Leader, Cadillas, was a hero who valued both intelligence and strength. In just a few years, Lost had become one of the top ten teams in the Horn of the Devil.

Kelly’s position in the loss was somewhat special. Her strength was not inferior to the other deputy commanders. Moreover, Kelly had another characteristic. If she was in high spirits, her combat strength would also surpass her standard, just like the Holy Warrior Xiao Qiang who erupted from the small universe.

The female martial artist had once fought a high-level battle against a legend. At that time, the lost Chief MT was seriously injured. As a result, Kelly forcefully treated her as the MT of the main group, causing the two legendary storyline experts to be helpless. After letting the Lost General Guild recover from their near-death predicament, they finally launched a counterattack from the Jedi.

However, Kelly’s carelessness could not be relieved. Lost Guild Leader Cadillas did not dare to let her lead a core division alone, only letting her become the vice captain of a core division. As a result, Kelly was the only one who was the deputy captain of the core division and the deputy captain of the Lost Corps.

Perhaps because of the experience of the Golden Jackal, although Kelly was not the lost rookie leader, she had a stubborn hobby of recruiting rookies. Unfortunately, every time Kelly recruited a rookie, there were very few people who were truly reliable. As time passed, the disappointed executives naturally had a perfunctory attitude.

“Kelly, she’s just an elementary apostle. Why should Morning Star make a trip?” The saber-browed young macheteman sitting closest to Kelly smiled bitterly. “Isn’t there often a junior apostle in our guild holding high-grade scrolls that we can’t use to please the Guild Leader and us? They know that we won’t owe you in vain. That apostle probably has the same intention in his heart!”

“No, this is different from those malicious fellows in our guild!” Kelly pouted and said unhappily, “I recruited him once before and he rejected me. Also … I have a hunch that that guy might be a Golden Apostle!”

“Golden Apostle?!” Everyone in the conference hall looked at Kelly with surprise on their faces. Even Cadillas, who was on the throne, put down his arms and became interested.

“Kelly, why didn’t you mention it before?” The young macheteman asked with a frown.

“This … Tsk, can’t I forget?” Kelly turned her head and said evasively.

“Haha, Kelly is afraid that I will snatch her away after she says that. Her division is not a core rookie group!” ‘”But, Kelly, if it’s really the Golden Apostle, you have to explain it in detail! If it’s an intelligence spy from a large enemy team, we’ll lose a lot of money.” The elven mage with a stunning face smiled and said, “But, Kelly, if it’s really the Golden Apostle, you have to explain it in detail.”

“Alright, the first time I met that person was because I accidentally saw an information bounty offered by the Metropolitan Mercenary Agency” Kelly’s eyes flashed with memories as she slowly recounted the process of her acquaintance with Qin Lun to everyone.

“The intervals between the three exchanges are very short. Judging from the leap in his strength, he only has five or six mission worlds, or even fewer. He is definitely a Golden Apostle! Furthermore, the process of our acquaintance is too accidental. He should not be a spy sent by the enemy team.”

“Kelly, from what you said, that apostle seems to have a small team. Could those gains be the profits of his entire team? Furthermore, I feel that you and he don’t seem to have a deep friendship. Perhaps he just used this method to curry favor with us!” The young macheteman said hesitantly.

“Ghost Saber, when you were at the early stage, would you use a skill scroll worth 100,000 broken crystals to curry favor with a large guild that you don’t know if it will be of any help to you?” Kelly was furious. She jumped up from her chair and pointed at the young macheteman with one hand on her waist. “You dare to doubt a martial artist’s intuition. I want to duel you!” She scolded angrily.

“Kelly, that’s not what I meant” Ghost Saber’s expression changed as he waved his hand with a bitter smile.

“Alright!” Cadillas, who was sitting on the throne, stood up and stopped the quarrel between the two deputy commanders. “You don’t understand what Kelly really meant!” All of us here have done a lot of things at the beginner level. But don’t forget who you are. In the end, all of you have become high-ranking, lost figures, high-ranking experts at the peak of the tens of thousands of apostles in the Horn of the Abyss …

What did it mean to send a high-grade scroll worth 100,000 yuan to an outsider on the basis of just a few mission worlds? This showed that he had strong confidence. He was confident that every mission world would reap more than 100,000 pieces of broken crystals. In his eyes, a skill scroll worth 100,000 yuan didn’t represent anything …

Haha, your attention is misplaced! In my opinion, it doesn’t matter whether the apostle is a golden apostle or not. It doesn’t matter what kind of thoughts he has. Those with such courage are all heroes! ”

There was a trace of reminiscence and emotion in Cadillac’s eyes. He stood up from the throne and said to the young man who had been playing with the nail knife, “Morning Star, go get in touch with that apostle and complete Kelly’s deal …”

“Alright!” The young man raised his head with a charming smile on his face. His temperament was somewhat similar to Qin Lun’s. “Guild Leader, if that apostle doesn’t show any signs of spying, then …”

“There’s no need to recruit him directly. Give him a copy of what we discussed at the previous meeting. The quota will come from the main group!” ‘”If he’s as strong as Kelly said, then let’s have a good look!” The Lost Guild Leader’s eyes revealed a hint of mockery.

“Previous meeting?!” The upper echelons below the throne, including Kelly, were slightly shocked.

“Guild Leader … you want that apostle to participate in the city war!”
