I can return to the age of mysterious
Chapter 755 - 755 396 Task (4000)_1

Chapter 755: 396 Task (4000)_1 Chapter 755: 396 Task (4000)_1 “Postponed? Why?”

Soss slammed his teacup down, his face as dark as iron.

George sighed, turned to close the door, and then walked over to the sofa as he explained: “Just now, Hunter Bai Kui submitted his Honor Badge, wanting to withdraw eight hundred units of holy spring water from the resources management department. This badge was personally issued by the Chief Inspector, so I had no choice…”

He sat down on the sofa, shaking his head as he poured himself a cup of tea.

“Bai Kui…”

Soss’s eyes narrowed, emitting a dangerous aura.

If Bai Kui took away eight hundred units of holy spring water from the Hunters Association, it would be nearly half the reserve. No wonder George said it would take another two or three weeks to replenish. This would have been tolerable under normal circumstances, but right now, Soss urgently needed the holy spring water to forcefully increase his strength. He could not afford to wait for another few weeks. Soon, the struggle for the seats would begin.

“I know of the hunter called Bai Kui, but isn’t he only a Black Copper level? How could he need so much holy spring water in such a short time?”

In a deep voice, Soss suggested, “Can’t we find an excuse to delay his resource exchange? I think, that kid wouldn’t dare to suspect anything…”

“Well…” said George, who was drinking water on the other side, he clicked his tongue, somewhat speechless. He had initially thought the same, but well…

“I’m sorry, Mr. Soss. Our transaction must be postponed. After all, this Honor Badge was given to the veteran hunter by the Legion Commander. If Bai Kui really files a complaint, I’d be the first to go down. Please understand…”

George professionally laughed.

Directly opposite him, the aura around Soss became dangerously threatening. His lion-like eyes were fixed on George, creating a strong sense of suppression. Unfazed, with a smile that didn’t change, George gently placed his teacup on the table. It was clear that his stance was decided.

“Hmph.”

Soss grunted coldly, standing up and walking straight out of the room.

Left alone, George let out a slow sigh. Soss’s intimidation was indeed terrifying, but it paled in comparison to before.

He didn’t want to offend Soss and the royal family, but George was even more reluctant to offend the four people in the rest room. His instincts told him that these four were more dangerous.

In the hallway outside, Soss looked coldly at the door before heading straight for the staircase. He had never imagined that a mere Black Copper-level hunter would cause him such a huge hassle at this crucial moment.

The Shadow Stab Organization was useless, as several Gold Medal assassins failed to take care of one Black Copper-level hunter. No wonder it was wiped out by an unknown force before.

He should have taken action personally at that time.

The more Soss thought about it, the angrier he became, and his footsteps quickened. At a corner, his hair fluttered like a lion’s mane. He was about to leave the association quickly.

However, he suddenly saw two staff members in the hallway carrying a metal container in the opposite direction. His gaze swept over the container, raising an eyebrow. This was the large iron container used by the Hunters Association’s resource management department to store holy spring water, carrying up to four hundred units.

With a total of eight hundred units, it matched the resources obtained from the Honor Badge.

Soss’s footsteps faltered slightly, and he turned and followed.

A minute or so later.

In the hallway where the rest room was located.

Two people ahead, and one behind, three silhouettes walked past the corner.

The two staff members were somewhat out of breath. They had promised to deliver within ten minutes, but it was actually almost fifteen minutes now. The main issue was that the warehouse was quite far from the rest room.

They took a few relaxed breaths, then knocked on the door.

“Mr. Bai Kui, your resources are here.”

There were footsteps inside, then a click, and the door was opened.

A strong young manappeared at the door, his face impassive.

“This is your holy spring water, a total of eight hundred units…”

The two staff members were about to walk into the room with the metal containers. Then, unexpectedly, a gust of wind came from the side, and a tall figure squeezed through.

His speed was swift, as if he was going to knock them out of the way.

“Whoosh…”

Casio furrowed his brows, put his hands on the shoulders of the two staff members, and shoved them back. He then positioned himself in the doorway.

“Hmph!”

Soss was initially planning to enter the room for a talk. But since the other party was so unappreciative, he had to take the hard road. With a hard stomp of his right boot, his figure accelerated, and he launched himself at them like a charging lion.

Boom!

The entire door frame shook, and the dull sound of the collision echoed in the hallway.

Soss felt a pain in his right shoulder. He felt like he had run into a towering iron wall. His powerful physique was incapable of moving it. If one were to make a comparison, it was like a lion rushing at an elephant. No, it was more like a lion charging at an even larger whale.

The former could be moved slightly, but the latter was impossible to shift.

“Can I take that as an attack on me, kid?”

The burly man, who was half a head taller than Soss, slowly cracked his neck, with a cracking sound. The collision just now didn’t affect him at all.

“So, I suppose my next punch can be considered self-defense.”

As soon as his words fell, Soss felt a chill run down his spine. His eyes hastily caught sight of a black arc cutting through the air. Along the edge of the arc was a stream of white air, being rapidly compressed and releasing piercing shrieks.

Bam!

A tall figure was sent flying as if shot from a cannon, crashing through the hallway window. He then soared straight out of the Hunters Association.
