2111: C2111 The Fugitive Was Revealed

C2111 The Fugitive Was Revealed

However, the battle that Mu Chen spoke of was far too sensitive, and it was very likely that it would drag the entire treasure hunter organization into it.

Cang Han was not the leader of the group, Abeson, so he did not have that much power.

He felt a little awkward.

"The organization's position is absolutely neutral. They do not plan to eradicate evil, nor do they plan to uphold justice."

"The person you want to assassinate is one of the Three Powerhouses, Zi Ning. No matter if it succeeds or not, it will cause chaos in the martial arts world."

"I'll give you some time to think about it. It's best if you ask the leader's opinion."

"The Guild Alliance is an unstable factor. The speed of expansion is really too fast."

"When they monopolize the entire hiring industry and suppress the forces of the Divine Might Sect, the peace will be gone forever."

Mu Chen tried to reason with them and gave them sufficient time to consider.

The next step would depend on the attitude of their leader, Apache.

Dark clouds were rolling in the sky in the north, with a murderous aura.

Mu Chen seemed to feel that something was about to happen.

The first search operation quickly came to an end. Several members were hit by the icicles, but they did not have to worry about their lives.

The people of the Elder Council were treated as distinguished guests, and were invited to the City Lord's Mansion to enjoy the best food and shelter.

The others would have to go to the hotel themselves.

The three guild leaders returned to the place they were staying in with a huff. They simply could not stand what had just happened any longer.

Zi Ning pointed at the dark cloud outside the window and said.

"How can the weather in the natural world be so strange? It's like someone is hiding in the dark to launch a sneak attack."

"We didn't manage to find the target with our mental strength. Moreover, those people from the Elder Association are all top experts. Who would have the guts to do such a thing?"

"Don't forget the Demonic Beasts around Mu Chen."

"These Demonic Beasts have a unique ability to hide in the natural environment and are good at using elemental attack methods."

"The most common thing I see is that silver white dragon that can control the wind, frost, rain, and snow."

In certain situations, a woman's sixth sense was inexplicably accurate.

Qian Zhenyi and Yan Shouxin, the two guild leaders, weren't as impulsive as young people.

"Mu Chen has already taken the position of the City Lord, so he can be considered as a core member of the official management."

"If you want him to die here for no reason, you can't pass through the Elder Council."

"I don't think so."

"The people we have sent out before are still hiding their identities. Wu Hai, Yuan Tianxing, and Hong Qiang are all powerful personal disciples. It would be perfect for them to carry out the assassination mission."

"As long as Mu Chen's body is properly handled, even if it's a missing person case, we won't be able to provide any evidence even if we are suspected."

"And some people in the Elder Council have just received a huge amount of sponsorship from us, so they won't insist on this matter."

Mu Chen had too many tricks up his sleeve.

If he allowed him to continue moving around, perhaps he would really accidentally find the correct location of the secret vault.

After Zi Ning's earnest persuasion, the three of them finally came to a unanimous decision.

After the assassination mission was confirmed, the personal disciple secretly slipped out of the city and found a suitable place to set up an ambush.

As martial artists, they would more or less sense hidden danger.

On a bored night.

Mu Chen took out two of the books of the Book of Destiny and started to deduce.

He accidentally discovered that there were really a few fugitives hiding in this area.

However, there was no way to lock onto their exact location.

"These guys are really bold."

"The foreign martial artists have almost all retreated, yet they are still staying here like nails. What are they trying to do?"

"After escaping from the prison, they must be in a poor state. It is normal for them to think about plundering wealth."

The Variant Iron Wire Worm analyzed the situation. It generally thought that there was not a high chance that these fugitives would show up on their own.

They had too few people. Even if they split up, they would not be able to search all of the areas around the frozen soil.

It would be better to observe the others in the dark.

Before Mu Chen could evaluate this speculation, there was a quick knock on the door.

City Lord Xin, the main butler of the Mirror-like Mansion, personally came to visit, bringing with him a piece of very disappointing news.

This middle-aged man in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses had an apologetic expression on his face.

He slowly opened his mouth and said.

"A few transport trucks carrying bright gauze ore were hijacked about 200 kilometers to the south."

"Not a single person was left alive on the scene. All of the goods have disappeared without a trace."

Mu Chen was also shocked by this news.

Experts from all over the world were gathered here, but there was an evil person who chose this time to cause trouble. Wasn't it the same as stirring up trouble right above the head of the emperor?

"What clues do you have?"

"I haven't discovered it yet. I only came to inform City Lord Mu. I hope it won't affect your business."

"It doesn't matter."

"The losses caused before the receipt of the goods have nothing to do with me. I just hope that I can send some more powerful experts to escort them."

After the butler left, Mu Chen could no longer sit still.

He summoned the Demonic Beast and disappeared into the vast night sky.

The distance of two hundred kilometers was not too far. It would not take more than half an hour for the giant ice dragon to travel at full speed.

The Mutated Ironthread Worm was extremely familiar with the smell of the Bright Veil Ore. There were thousands of tons in its stomach.1

They arrived at the approximate location.

The clones of the mutated Iron Wire Worm fell from the sky, looking for the pieces of the ore scattered in the ice and snow to track the murderer.

The City Slaughterer Daer Su, the Ten Thousand Tribulation Blade Master Luo Chentian, and the Thousand-Handed Arhat Dong Dong gathered a large amount of ore into their personal treasures.

They then found an inconspicuous cave in the snow mountain and planned to absorb the rich spiritual energy contained within the ore.

"The transportation team is simply like a large piece of fat meat that's about to be delivered to my mouth. Attacking them is much easier than plundering the official warehouse of the main city."

"It's been a long time since I've had such shocking gains. Ever since all four main cities went into martial law, I can't even see a single trace of the merchant fleet."

"I don't know what they are thinking about, but they suddenly sent out a fleet of carriages."

"It is said that they have dug out a rich amount of Bright Veil Ore Deposits in a certain rural area. We can set our next target there."

The piercing cold wind was blowing outside the cave, making a sound. The three of them were thinking about the beautiful future.

Even if they couldn't make a move on the secret vault, it would be good if they could get other treasures.

The pure white snow was like a huge canvas. The ore fragments scattered on it were easily distinguished by the Mutated Ironthread Worms.

After careful investigation, they crossed dozens of kilometers of mountains before they finally arrived at the entrance of the cave on the mountainside.

Listening to the conversation of the people inside, they could easily determine their identities.

"Master, the real criminal is hiding here."

"There are three people on the other side. We must be careful."
