Chapter 550: Chapter 259: Dark Erosion, The Thunder of the Red Moon!_1

A light breeze from the distant artificial lake brushed the strands of Kim Myungjin’s hair.

"Have you heard of this organization?"

Lin Baici asked curiously, noting the captive’s attitude, who seemed to regard this terrorist group as something quite formidable.

"A very mysterious and powerful dark force, every core member has the ability to easily annihilate a city!"

Kim Myungjin looked at Zheng Daqing, "I also heard it from my cousin, the members of the Dark Erosion, in terms of destructive power, can be called human-shaped nuclear bombs."

"Oh!"

Lin Baici had thought it was a force similar to the Lost Coast.

"The most terrifying thing about them is that they have no sense of good and evil, no moral baseline. Their goal is to evolve into gods, and they are willing to sacrifice everything for it!"

Kim Myungjin heard from Jin Xian that members of Dark Erosion no longer identified with humans, considering themselves a higher species.

"Little Bai is my god!"

Hua Yue Yu pouted, she wouldn’t want to be a god even if she could, if she could become Lin Baici’s girlfriend, marry him, and spend a happy life together.

"Scared, are you?"

Zheng Daqing sneered.

"Who’s your boss?"

Lin Baici pulled out a new phone, changed the SIM card, and squatted next to Zheng Daqing, "Let me dial for you and call him over!"

"Are you joking?"

Zheng Daqing looked stunned, then realizing Lin Baici was serious, he was shocked, "Aren’t you afraid to die?"

"I’m not afraid of death, I’m afraid of hunger."

Lin Baici thought to himself, as someone who had devoured a god, why would he fear the Dark Erosion? Could they consume gods? "Call your boss over!"

Lin Baici wasn’t a foolhardy man; he had foiled the man’s assassination attempt and even gained two Taboo Things. The enmity was secured.

The enemy would likely seek revenge. Rather than waiting passively, it was better to strike first, especially since this was Goryeo and Sejong’s people would take the frontline in an emergency.

However, Zheng Daqing did not give the number.

"What’s the matter?"

Lin Baici chuckled, the sarcasm heavy in his tone, "Were you deceiving me after all?"

"I have a direct line to my boss."

Zheng Daqing sighed. In plain terms, he was just the boss’s dog, and this mission was suddenly assigned by the boss.

Otherwise, how could he, a local who knew the power of the San Forest Group and the Da Xian Conglomerate, possibly attempt an assassination on a member of their families?

"What’s your boss’s nickname?"

Kim Myungjin was curious.

"Red Moon Thunder!"

Zheng Daqing’s gaze left Lin Baici and looked into the distance.

Three Mercedes cars drove off the road, onto the track, and came to a screeching halt, their tires squealing against the ground.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The doors opened, and seven men and women dressed in white silk robes hurried out, each wearing a black hat.

It was a traditional Goryeo attire, a hat with a wide brim and a cylindrical top about a foot tall, resembling a ’bump’ character. The clothes were embroidered with cinnamon and sparrow patterns, opulent and pristine, giving an aura of being apart from the world.

"Oppa, they are God Hunters from Sejong!"

Kim Myungjin moved close to Lin Baici’s ear and whispered.

The seven people rushed over and frowned deeply upon seeing Zheng Daqing’s condition. Then, their eyes swept over Lin Baici and the others, filled with scrutiny.

"Stop the bleeding for him!"

The oldest of the seven, a middle-aged man probably in his forties with a small goatee, looked like an official from ancient times.

"I’m a member of Dark Erosion!"

Zheng Daqing shouted, fearing that Sejong’s people would treat him poorly and not provide him with the best care.

After Lin Baici’s ’interrogation’, Zheng Daqing had learned his lesson.

These four words stunned the seven people. The subordinates looked to their leader for a command.

"Give him the best treatment!"

The middle-aged man ordered.

"Phew!"

Zheng Daqing breathed a sigh of relief; this was more like it. He wanted to show the Jiuzhou Man the proper reaction upon hearing the four words ’Dark Erosion’, but seeing Lin Baici’s stern face, he dared not proceed.

He feared getting hit!

"I am Cao Daxun from Sejong. May I ask for your esteemed name?"

Cao Daxun glanced at Kim Myungjin but addressed Lin Baici.

The Goryeo girl wasn’t the heir of the Da Xian Conglomerate, so she naturally didn’t garner much attention from Cao Daxun; ensuring she was alive was enough.

"Lin Baici!"

[A staid and conservative man who likes to drink alone after work, a few small drinks, acting high and mighty, believing that if he were born in ancient times, he would undoubtedly be a great sage.]

[A predator with some capabilities!]

Gurgle!

Lin Baici’s stomach growled again, the hunger rising. Without question, this Cao Daxun must possess some Taboo Things worth tasting.

"What brings you to Goryeo?"

It was a routine question from Cao Daxun.

"They are my friends!"

Kim Myungjin interjected.

"I didn’t ask you!"

Cao Daxun rebuffed.

"Leader!"

A young man shouted, and when Cao Daxun turned his head, he immediately shook his head and then looked at Lin Baici.

The subtext was simple: the target’s Taboo Things had already been pilfered,

"Mr. Lin, this man has caused rule pollution and killed many people, some of high status. I must give their families an explanation. Please hand over this man’s weapon to us!"

Cao Daxun made his request.

"What the F, so shameless?"

Hua Yue Yu was speechless. The Goryeo government organization seemed to be no good either?

They even wanted to grab Taboo things?

This Zheng Daqing was captured by Lin Baici. If not for Bai Ci, who knows how many more would have died—this guy would have run away long ago.

By all accounts, Sejong still owes Bai Ci some reward money, right?

"You heard just now, he’s a member of Dark Erosion. If you keep his Taboo things, you’ll attract revenge!"

Cao Daxun knew it wasn’t easy to make the other party spit out what they had obtained, so he tried to reason with him.

"Revenge?"

Lin Baici sneered. "I’m afraid Dark Erosion is too slow!"

"Cao Daxun, Lin Oppa is an honored guest invited by my cousin. Please watch your tone."

Kim Myungjin was both angry and embarrassed.

"Who’s your cousin!"

A young man sneered, wanting to tell her that if it’s not a God Hunter, it’s not enough.

"Jin Xian!"

When the Goryeo girl spat out this name, the atmosphere on the scene immediately quieted down.

Jin Xian was young, but he was already a prominent figure in Sejong, representing a faction with considerable power.

"Why would Jin Xian invite him to Goryeo?"

Cao Daxun was curious.

"To explore the Busan Divine Ruins."

Kim Myungjin had not finished speaking when it caused a burst of exclamations.

"What? Impossible!"

"Why should a person from Nine States be allowed into our Divine Ruins?"

"If Jin Xian allows it, then there’s no problem!"

Everyone was chattering, and even Zheng Daqing, who was receiving treatment and was on the verge of sleep, was stunned when he heard the news.

As a Korean, every God Hunter knew what the Busan Divine Ruins represented.

Cao Daxun turned back to look at Zheng Daqing’s pitiful state, thinking that perhaps this young man truly had the strength worth Jin Xian’s effort to win over.

Kim Myungjin didn’t want to continue the stalemate here. "Oppa, can I use your phone?"

The Goryeo girl needed to call Jin Xian.

"Li Taewoo, don’t you want to come out and say a few words?"

Lin Baici shouted at a Mercedes on the runway. He had caught the scent of this heir of the San Forest Group.

Li Taewoo got out of the car, looking embarrassed: "The US Dollars I promised you will be transferred within seven days, and for the rest, I can’t decide."

"After this is over, I’ll treat you to a meal!"

After thinking it over, Li Taewoo bowed to Lin Baici: "Thank you very much!"

Bang! Bang!

Inside a car, the sound of glass being smashed suddenly rang out. Li Duohui turned to look at the noise and shivered from fright.

It was Choi Seh-Hyo inside, using his head to hit the car window, and from the expression on his face, it was evident he had turned into a zombie.

"Why... why didn’t you kill her?"

Li Duohui was concerned.

"Kill what? She’s an important specimen!"

A young man complained irritably.

Hiss!

Li Duohui gasped, couldn’t help but lean closer to Lin Baici. It’s a good thing I followed him—otherwise, wouldn’t I end up like this too?

Turning into a monster was scary enough, but to be researched on top of that?

That was truly adding misery to horror!

The call went through, Kim Myungjin briefly explained the situation, and then handed the phone to Cao Daxun: "My cousin wants to talk to you."

Cao Daxun hesitated for a moment, then took the phone and walked more than ten meters away. Clearly, he didn’t want Lin Baici to eavesdrop.

But with Lin Baici’s hearing, even if Cao Daxun went further away, he could still catch every single word.

A few minutes later, Cao Daxun came back, looked deeply at Lin Baici, and handed the phone back to him: "I wish you a smooth trip to Busan."

"Let’s go!"

Cao Daxun led his people away.

"Your cousin’s influence is really something!"

Hua Yue Yu marveled. With just a phone call from Jin Xian, he could make these people leave. It seemed Jin Xian held a high position in Sejong.

"Let’s go, let’s go back and rest!"

Kim Myungjin didn’t expect that attending Li Taewoo’s birthday party would involve rule contamination. In the end, whose luck was worse?

...

The Mercedes carried everyone back to the villa area, where, as they searched and handled the aftermath, they discussed Lin Baici through the earpieces.

"Why would Jin Xian allow that guy into the Busan Divine Ruins?"

"He managed to capture a peripheral member of Dark Erosion without a scratch. His strength must be decent. Maybe this time he could take away a few Taboo things from the Busan Divine Ruins!"

"Xiba, this feels like such a loss!"

Everyone had the feeling that their treasures were about to be dug up, feeling both aggrieved and worried.

Looking at the bodies scattered around the villa, they could piece together the rule contamination that had happened before, and thus they recognized Lin Baici’s strength.

From the time they received the alarm to their arrival only took about twenty minutes, which was quite quick. But Lin Baici not only made it through the Taboo game, but he also captured the ringleader. What kind of efficiency was that?

"What’s there to worry about? He might enter alive, but it’s not certain he’ll come out that way."

Cao Daxun chuckled: "I heard that half a month ago, not only did the contamination level in the Busan Divine Ruins increase again, but several new sources of contamination were also detected. Him going in now is practically suicide!"

"I hope he encounters a God and gets contaminated into a flesh monster."

Someone cursed.

In the Busan Divine Ruins, there are Gods, and those who see them are doomed!
