Chapter 450: Chapter 224: Sitting Quietly and Scroll_1

Demon Hunters Headquarters.

Long Dangdang and his group of seven arrived here, their emotions remarkably calm. Entering the headquarters, they headed straight towards the mission area.

Upon reaching the entrance of the mission area, rather than entering, Long Dangdang nodded at Long Kongkong, who promptly took out a large banner from his storage ring.

The two brothers unfolded the banner, one on each side, then sat down behind the banner along with their comrades.

There was only one line of text on the banner - brief, but with each character distinctly large. It read: "We should not have damaged the departed heroes’ skeletal remains during our mission, we were wrong."

Just this one line of text. Nothing more.

Then the seven of them just sat there in silence.

Undoubtedly, the mission area was the busiest part of the Demon Hunters Headquarters. It wasn’t long before a demon hunting team walked in from outside.

The members looked to be in their twenties. As they reached the entrance of the mission area and saw the banner in front of Long Dangdang’s group, they couldn’t help but pause.

"Brother, what’s with you guys? What on earth are you doing here?" asked the knight at the front in confusion.

With a calm expression, Long Dangdang said, "During our mission, we destroyed the skeletal remains of departed heroes to prevent them from being taken by wraith entities. We have come to confess our wrongdoing."

The knight’s expression changed into something peculiar. He was about to say something when one of his companions gently tugged at his arm. He asked no further questions and led his team into the mission area.

In a short while, a middle-aged man rushed out from inside the mission area. On seeing Long Dangdang and his group, he couldn’t help but shout angrily, "What are you guys doing? This is Demon Hunters Headquarters. Which demon hunting team are you all from?"

Long Dangdang stood up, his right fist against his chest in a knight’s salute, "Senior, how are you? We are General Class Demon Hunting Team 19115897. We were penalized by the headquarters for destroying the skeletal remains of many departed heroes during our emergency mission. We have come to admit our wrong."

Having finished his sentence, he sat back down.

"Nonsense. Who told you to confess? What you’re doing is creating a scene. Do you know that? This area for missions is an important place within the headquarters. Leave at once." The middle-aged man scolded.

Long Dangdang shook his head without uttering another word.

"I warn you, leave immediately. Otherwise, I will call the guards to escort you out," The middle-aged man said, an uneasy feeling creeping into his heart.

Just then, another team of demon hunters walked in. Without a word, they walked toward the mission area and sat down behind Long Dangdang’s group.

"What do you think you’re doing?" The middle-aged man demanded, his voice showing both surprise and anger.

"We executed the mission with them. We’re also here to admit our wrong," Zisang Liuying said calmly, and then sat down behind Long Dangdang.

"Nonsense!" The middle-aged man was starting to suspect something was wrong. He had intended to call for the guards but remembered that every demon hunter present was, in a way, a hero of the Federation. His position in the headquarters wasn’t very high, and he wouldn’t have talked to Long Dangdang and his group like this if they hadn’t been so young.

Without saying much, he hurriedly turned and went back inside the headquarters. He had to immediately report what was happening.

Ling Menglu turned and grinned at Zisang Liuying, "You got here fast."

Zisang Liuying replied indifferently, "You should have a good deal of rewards for killing the 8th Rank undead, right? Losing 10,000 merit points isn’t too bad. Our team is now in negative merit points. We’re struggling."

It was indeed so. At that time, the largest merit point came from killing the two 8th Rank undead. Aside from dealing with the sorcery demons on the other side, Zisang Liuying’s Elemental Storm had wiped out all the remains of the departed heroes. Being the destroyer, her merits were deducted by 15,000, more than Ling Menglu’s. She was already holding a grudge, and upon being notified by Ling Menglu, she had rushed over.

Long Dangdang’s hand glowed momentarily as he took out the reserve Sacred Legate Token and gestured towards Zisang Liuying, who immediately understood.

Immediately, Long Dangdang, Long Kongkong, Ling Menglu, Zisang Liuying, Tang Leiguang, Chu Yu - who had lost three of his senses - and Cai Caijuan, all took out a Token. They lined them up in front of the banner and then continued to sit quietly.

Just as they finished doing this, members of another demon hunting team arrived outside. They looked rather anxious and swiftly approached the mission area. On seeing Long Dangdang and his team, the leading figure quickened his pace.

"Why are you doing this to yourselves?" Li Hongche said helplessly to Long Dangdang.

Long Dangdang just smiled and said, "Because we have been subjected to unfair treatment! Team Leader Li, we, as demon hunters, can’t be expected to shed both blood and tears, can we?"

Li Hongche sighed, "Indeed, the matter this time is a little complicated. How about this, I’ll share my personal achievements in this mission with you. Let’s just forget about it. Don’t blame the headquarters, after all, this implicates the power struggle at the top."

Zisang Liuying retorted coldly, "So the power struggle at the top means sacrificing us pawns?"

Li Hongche gave a bitter laugh, "Forget it, forget it. Who can we blame for being in the same mission together? If we didn’t have you, we might have been wiped out already. Let’s stick together then."

As he spoke, he led his companions to sit down nearby.

"Whoa, what is this?" a young woman from Li Hongche’s team, who also happened to be their summoner, exclaimed in surprise. She stared, stupefied, at the Tokens Long Dangdang’s team had laid out in front of them.
