The lighting was dim, creating the unique haziness of a bar, with its minimalist decor lending an ambiance neither ostentatious nor dull. A soft melody flowed through the air, laced with the faint fragrance of alcohol.
At this time, The Blue-Eyed Hunters’ Bar would usually be raucous. They were hunters, bread from a young age to live life on the edge. With skills far surpassing ordinary people, they nonetheless had inner turmoil that never ceased to accumulate.
The Blue-Eyed Hunters’ Bar was both a gathering place for intelligence and a place to vent. Many hunters would take a drink before a mission and a bottle afterwards. They would mingle and chat, sometimes singing loudly or getting a bit rowdy. However, today, it was unusually quiet.
Half the seats were occupied, a rare congregation of hunters that moved with unfamiliar subtleness.
Shadows bunched in the dimness, silhouettes seated and drinking in silence – staring at each other in silence.
Draped in large, uniform black trench coats, distinct outlines of their battle gear could be traced from their legs, torso, and chest. Everyone had a dark bag by their side, heavy and bulging, seemingly filled with weapons.
The atmosphere in the bar was eerily tense, subtly hinting a chilling draft of an impending crisis.
Like the eve of a major, dangerous mission.
A creaking sounded.
Someone energetically strode in through the entrance of the Blue-Eyed Hunters’ bar. The dim lighting revealed their figure.
The woman was tall, with delicate brows and eyes. She was clad in a large black trench coat, revealing only her legs clad in tight, black knee-high boots. From her hair down to her attire, everything was black. Her short hair coupled with her firm, sharp gaze gave her a cold demeanor.
In terms of style, she was a cool and intimidating woman.
“Ice Blade…”
A hunter mumbled from the shadows.
Ice Blade was her nickname; executing her hunting missions like a cold, ruthless blade — efficient and ruthless. Unlike Osi’s four-man team, Ice Blade worked alone.
However, her mission completion rate was a staggering 75%.
She had once killed a mid-tier member of the Blood Clan single-handedly.
Even though it was achieved through various tactics and calculations, it was enough to reflect Ice Blade’s strength. She had been tracking a target in the neighboring Jinghu City, and presumably rushed back after hearing the news. The hunter Osi had initiated contact with those mysterious forces, exchanging preliminary intents. Now both parties were discussing in the Blue-Eyed Hunters’ Bar’s conference room on the next floor, seemingly planning a major action.
“Where’s Osi and the others? Are they in the meeting room?”
Ice Blade stood under the dim light and asked.
“Hmm.” At the bar, a middle-aged hunter responsible for maintaining order nodded, answering Ice Blade’s question.
“I’ll head down.”
Ice Blade immediately turned and headed towards the stairs.
She passed two hunters guarding the staircase and moved down to the second floor, arriving at the closed meeting room door. She took a deep breath, her calloused hand lightly knocking.
“Knock… Knock… Knock…”
“Who is it?” Osi’s voice came from inside the room.
“It’s me, Ice Blade.”
“Come in and close the door.”
The door creaked open, Ice Blade quickly closed the heavy door behind her before shifting her gaze towards the room.
The lighting here was markedly brighter than the bar, practically well-lit. A long conference table sat at the center of the space, but no one was around it. Rather, they were sat around the corner, near a bookshelf and a set of casual sofas.
A small group of people were sitting there, engaged in conversation.
Ice Blade recognized the hunters on her side.
However, the three strong unfamiliar figures on the opposite sofa immediately drew her attention.
The man on the far left had a sturdy physique and athletic figure, much like a ferocious cheetah. With deep-set, brooding eyes and rugged facial features, his eyes had a deep, fish-in-the-dark-sea kind of blackness, with a hint of red.
He sat with his arms crossed, listening silently to the explanation from the other side.
The young man in the middle was handsome and elegant, carrying a scholarly air. He wore a long braid, casually draped over his shoulders.
He sat with one leg crossed over the other, sipping his slightly hot tea.
The last one was somewhere between a teenager and a young man. His soft, delicate features contrasted with his demeanor. His gaze seemed to be swept by icy-cold, blade-like winds.
Golden-haired, like the scattering light of the sun. He had a cigarette in his mouth, the blue and red flame on the end flickering.
Ice Blade made her way over, overhearing their conversation.
“Mr. Feng Liusi, do you understand the direct bloodline of the Blood Clan in the Alfama Mountains? Those of the Blood Clan have the special ability of the Blood Blessing, which allows them to transform into bat monsters, possessing the combat power of the second phase. They are incomparable to the Blood Clan branches outside, and sometimes their combat power can even cross levels.” Osi explained.
Feng Liusi glanced at Casio by his side, who shook his head and explained, “Those direct bloodline of Blood Clan from the mountains are indeed stronger than those outside, but even the strongest is only at Major Accomplishment Level in boxing. You don’t need to pay too much attention, they’re just a bunch of minor obstacles…”
