The Death List Novel - Chapter 299

Chapter 299 That’s Why
Qin Lun’s eyes lit up. He found an empty sofa and sat down. He closed his eyes to rest. However, his heart grew even more excited, because he could feel some sort of aura coming from the other three people.

In other words, even though the three of them did not possess the heart of an expert, they still possessed the aura of an expert with certain professional characteristics.

“Judging from the two choices of the guide mission, the lowest level official hunter should have that kind of spiritual aura. At the very least, he should be at the level of a professional apostle, or even at the peak of the early stage of breaking through to the Heart of the Strong.” Qin Lun quickly came to a shocking conclusion.

‘”How many experts are there in this world that have the standard of an official hunter? Since an official hunter has the peak of the beginner stage of an apostle, then there is no shortage of high-level and legendary experts here. No wonder the difficulty of the world has reached the ridiculous Colonel level …”

Qin Lun’s curiosity grew even more vigorous, and the thoughts in his mind instantly swirled. Just as he was deep in thought, a pleasant voice sounded in his ears.

“Sir, do you need anything to drink?” Qin Lun opened his eyes and found that the blonde maid who had brought him to the living room was standing by the sofa with a tray. On the tray were drinks and drinks of different colors.

“Give me a glass of fruit wine that isn’t too spicy.” Qin Lun looked into the maid’s pale blue eyes and smiled.

The maid lowered her head slightly and avoided Qin Lun’s gaze. She took a glass of amber wine from the tray and handed it to him. Just as she was about to leave, Qin Lun reached out and stopped her. He smiled and asked, “How long will the test last?”

“Sir, it won’t be over until tomorrow morning. However, you have already passed the selection. If you need to rest, we have prepared a guest room on the second floor.” The maid replied respectfully.

“Take me to my room.” Qin Lun shook his glass, glanced at the other three people in the living room, and stood up from the sofa.

“Certainly, sir!” The maid turned around and led the way, but an invisible surprise flashed through her eyes.

The rooms in the villa weren’t luxurious, just like ordinary motels. However, being able to set up such a room on Meteor Street was already considered quite good. I think this place should be a violent organization, set up in the permanent stronghold of Meteor Street.

After sending Qin Lun into the room, the maid did not immediately go downstairs. She stood there and pondered for a while before turning around to go up to the top floor of the villa.

He pushed open the door of the pavilion. The room was filled with electronic equipment. The wall facing the door was piled up with numerous monitoring screens, monitoring the villa’s interior and exterior. Among them were the living room where the three Meteor Street thugs were and Qin Lun’s room.

A young man in a white suit was sitting on a chair in front of the surveillance screen. Hearing the sound of footsteps coming from behind him, the young man asked without turning his head, “How is it? Is there a problem with Number Four who just arrived?”

‘”There shouldn’t be any problem with his identity. The Meteor Street thugs’ extreme indifference to life can’t be faked. However, I always feel that this person is a little strange …”

As the blonde maid spoke, she twisted her boneless body like a calisthenic exercise and rubbed her face with both hands. With one move, her originally ordinary appearance had undergone a tremendous change, transforming into a melon-seeded beauty with a protruding front and a curved back.

This was not the most amazing thing about her. The most amazing thing was that the maid’s blonde hair and skin color had actually turned into black hair and yellow skin without any dye.

“Haha, your ability is truly inconceivable. As expected of the Chameleon that is most skilled in disguise in the organization.” The young man in the white suit deliberately pretended to be extremely sad and said, “You and I have been partners for two years. Not to mention our looks, we can’t even tell if it’s a man or a woman. It’s really sad!”

“Come on, let’s get down to business!” The chameleon took out a pair of golden-rimmed glasses from the maid’s pocket and put them on. In an instant, his temperament turned into a very intelligent beauty. He said in a serious tone, “Silver Mercury, did you see anything when that Number Four spiritual force field fought with you just now?”

Hearing the chameleon’s words, the white-suited youth’s expression became serious. After pondering for a while, he said, “Number Four has awakened a spiritual force field that meets the recruitment requirements of the organization. However, he doesn’t seem to know how to use his spiritual power. It should be a natural awakening. I’m afraid he hasn’t ventured into the world outside Meteor Street.”

“Yes, I’ve seen the two of you clash in your spiritual fields. His spiritual fields seem to have an unusual devouring property. Unfortunately, he’s still unable to control himself freely, which is in line with your judgment.” The chameleon frowned and said doubtfully, “This is the strange part about me. When I received him earlier, I felt that his tone wasn’t like that of a Meteor Street thug who had never seen the world before …”

“Oh, why do you say that?” Silver Mercury was slightly surprised.

He and the chameleon were the examiners who presided over the recruitment. One was to examine the mercenaries’ combat capabilities, while the other was to observe their personality traits, so as to better organize and recruit these high-potential Meteor Street thugs.

‘”There is a lack of resources on Meteor Street. The first two to three people to arrive in the living room basically don’t recognize the wine I entertained them with. They just chose it as they please. And even though the selection will last until dawn, the three of them still chose to sit there until dawn. They maintained absolute vigilance, just like the previous Meteor Street mercenaries.”

The chameleon said mockingly, “These people relied too much on their bodies and didn’t know how to combine work and rest because of their previous habits. There are still many aspects that need to be adapted to the outside world.” Number Four, on the other hand, was different from them. Not only did he speak freely, he was also relaxed and dao-oriented. He knew how to make the most of every bit of his strength. He was probably an extremely experienced adventurer. ”

“Haha, I felt that something was wrong just now. Hearing you say that, I understand.” Silvermercury suddenly pointed to a monitoring screen and said, “Look at Number Four. He is so natural in his room, just like he is in his own house. He doesn’t seem to be in a hurry at all. You’re right, he must have been out of Meteor Street.”

The chameleon stared at the screen for a while before covering his mouth and chuckling, “That’s right, there aren’t many places like this villa in Meteor Street. For those who haven’t left Meteor Street, it’s like a luxurious palace. How could he be so relaxed? Silver Mercury, do you think he’s a spy sent by an enemy organization?”

“Send a spy into Meteor Street just to sneak into the gang’s mercenary squad?” This time, the white-suited youth did not agree with his companion’s opinion and rolled his eyes amusedly. “Even if he had left Meteor Street and awakened his spiritual power, he might not have met the expert who taught him!”

“Perhaps I was overthinking it.” The chameleon shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Meteor Street was not a good place. If one wanted to sneak into a gang organization, there were many channels. There was no need to sneak into Meteor Street first.

Compared to the billions of people in the world, the number of people with mental abilities could be described as rare. Although there was life energy in everyone’s body, there weren’t many people who truly awakened their minds.

Most importantly, there were many kinds of mental abilities and individual differences. Unlike traditional martial arts, they would not form a systematic inheritance school. Moreover, most of the powerful minds would focus on their own dreams and would not stay in a certain place to teach disciples for a long time.

This was also the main reason why this world would form its own “hunter” system, and not other martial skill schools.

In all seriousness, apart from the Hunter’s Association and the Sky Arena, it was very difficult for young people who yearned for strength to find places to learn to read. Even though Qin Lun had left Meteor Street and awakened his spiritual force field, he had not systematically learned spiritual power.

“I’m exhausted. It looks like no one will pass.” Silvermercury stretched exhaustively and stood up from the chair.

When he stood up, he immediately revealed the workbench in front of the armchair. A hemispherical crystal was embedded in the workbench, revealing a small model exactly like this villa.

This was a defensive device of a villa, capable of spreading out a force field of the mind, which could serve as an early warning and a precaution.

The spiritual force field outside the villa was formed by the diffusion of silver mercury through this device. Otherwise, with his strength, he would not be able to extend the spiritual force field to this range. A malicious spiritual force field was used to cover the vicinity of the villa to test the mercenaries who had come to select them.

As soon as Silvermercury’s hand released the crystal hemisphere on the workbench, the spiritual force field outside the villa immediately disappeared.

“Wait, I’m not ready!” The chameleon cried out in alarm and rushed forward in a hurry, placing a pair of delicate hands on the crystal hemisphere.

“Hehe!” Seeing the chameleon leaning over the workbench dressed in maid attire, a hint of mockery flashed in Silvermercury’s eyes. He stretched out his right hand and made a move to look for the moon in the sea, touching the privacy of the bottom of her skirt like lightning.

“Bastard!” The chameleon flew up and kicked angrily, but Silver Mercury was prepared and jumped out of the door like a rabbit.

The chameleon’s charming face turned black and white. He looked at the hemispherical crystal under his palm and could only hold back his anger. He sat down on the chair and took over Silver Mercury’s work.

At this moment, Silvermercury walked in the corridor, pretending to raise the criminal right hand in a serious manner, muttering to himself, “So it is, so it is!”

After a night of silence, Qin Lun woke up in the guest room at dawn.

“Looks like there’s only one test.” He stretched out his hand to press down on his left eye and removed Gannett’s left eye.

Qin Lun had already seen that the chameleon was no ordinary maid. How could an ordinary maid be brought to Meteor Street by a gang? To serve a mercenary who had just joined, he should naturally be one of the examiners for this selection.

He loosened his grip last night and even though he said he wanted to rest, he still wore Gannettes’ left eye. If the selection hadn’t ended and the examiner had prepared for a sudden night raid, he would have been able to react as quickly as possible.

Walking to the living room downstairs, Qin Lun discovered that the three people were still inside. They stayed up all night and stayed there all the time. Although their faces were calm, they had been in a state of tension all night, and they couldn’t help but feel a little tired.

There were still some pastries left on the coffee table in the living room from yesterday, and Qin Lun took them out to eat without any politeness.

“Alright, the selection is over. Prepare for it. We’ll set off immediately.” Just as he was halfway through his meal, a pleasant voice came from outside the living room.
