"What’s wrong?" Ya Qiaoxi squinted her eyes, "Do you have a grudge against the Sandthorn Rose?"
"More than just a grudge!" The rcenary glared viciously at Suyue and said, "The two brothers I was closest with, one was lured by the rotten emblem of the Sandthorn Rose and willingly beca their scapegoat; the other was ambushed by the Sandthorn Rose on the way back from a mission, and his body was thrown in the wilderness... These won are all the kind that devour you whole without spitting the bones!"
"Tsk, that’s truly a deep-seated grudge." Ya Qiaoxi glanced at the rcenary with a trace of sympathy in her eyes.
"This woman... is she under the protection of the Dubhe Tower?" the rcenary asked.
"I don’t know." Ya Qiaoxi threw out a quality response and then looked directly at Sun Hang, who was not far away.
"If we hand this woman over to you, what would you do with her?" Sun Hang suddenly asked.
"I’ll use the cruelest thods I can think of to torture her, make her unable to live or die, and when there’s only a gasp left in her, I’ll throw her into the territory of the carnivorous ants, so she can experience being consud bit by bit..." the rcenary said through gritted teeth.
"Aren’t you afraid that people from the Sandthorn Rose will co for revenge?" Sun Hang asked again.
"Didn’t her companions all die at Giant Hill?" The rcenary looked up at Sun Hang, "Could it be that there’s so cooperation between the Dubhe Tower and Sandthorn Rose?"
"No, but I won’t hand her over to you." Sun Hang glanced at the trembling Suyue, "I still have a use for her."
"A use?" The rcenary was taken aback at first, then heard the hidden aning in Sun Hang’s words, "What kind of use?"
"The kind where everything is used to its full potential," Sun Hang replied.
"...Alright." The rcenary slowly let out a breath, then spat forcefully at Suyue’s feet and turned to leave.
"What kind of full use thod are you talking about?" Ya Qiaoxi asked sowhat curiously, "Are you really going to use her for live experints?"
Sun Hang didn’t directly answer Ya Qiaoxi’s question, but instead walked over to Suyue, squatted down, lifted her chin with his finger, and asked, "That rcenary wants to kill you... he doesn’t even want to let you die easily. I’m curious, after you reunite with your companions, how will you retaliate against him?"
"The Sandthorn Rose has offended many people... we also know our reputation is not great." Suyue murmured softly, "If we had to take revenge on all these people, we simply don’t have the ti and energy... As long as they don’t make a move against us, we won’t bother with them..."
"He doesn’t make a move against you not because he doesn’t want to, but because I’m here," Sun Hang said, "What if I hand you over to him right now?"
"Please, don’t... I’ll do whatever you want, I’ll agree to any conditions!" Suyue pleaded urgently, "Just don’t hand over... I can do anything!"
"Did you say the sa thing to those two Hunters who saved you before?" Sun Hang suddenly changed the subject, choking Suyue’s plea in her throat.
"You’re... you’re different..." Suyue said quietly, "The Sandthorn Rose would never dare to offend the Dubhe Tower..."
"That’s not necessarily true, weren’t you planning to ambush us before?"
"That was because we were frad!" Suyue argued.
"How long will it take for your companions to arrive?" Sun Hang unexpectedly changed the topic again.
"Still... I... I’m not very sure." Suyue bowed her head, "My Hunter bracelet is completely damaged, and I’ve lost contact with the organization..."
"I’ve searched her," Ya Qiaoxi said, "She indeed doesn’t have any communication devices on her."
"Not on her, but inside her?" Sun Hang said casually, "I’ve heard that so criminals use their bodies as transport tools, hiding contraband inside for transportation... so for an organization like Sandthorn Rose to implant a micro-tracker inside their mbers, it’s reasonable, right?"
"With your ability, you could easily detect if she really had such a thing inside her, right?" Ya Qiaoxi rolled her eyes at Sun Hang.
"The Sandthorn Rose people will definitely co." The rcenary who had left ca back and threw two vacuum-packed braised duck legs at Sun Hang—in this resource-scarce no man’s land, these two bags of braised duck legs could be considered a generous gift.
"The bounty offered by the Dubhe Tower is too high, Sandthorn Rose couldn’t possibly pass up such a fat piece of at," the rcenary said, "Not to ntion, in their eyes, people like us are also considered fat at."
"The Dubhe Tower transfers the reward directly into participants’ personal accounts, even if they rob you, they shouldn’t be able to get the money, right?" Candle Dragon asked a bit puzzled, "If they had the capability to hack into personal accounts, the Federation Governnt and major banks surely wouldn’t sit idly by."
"If you’re captured alive by them, they have countless ways to make you hand over your personal account’s paynt password," the rcenary sneered, "If by any chance you die, before news of your death or disappearance reaches Yun or Dragon City, a wife or live-in girlfriend you’ve possibly never t before in your life might suddenly appear to inherit your estate through various ans... This notorious organization has grown and thrived through this modus operandi."
"Doesn’t the Hunter Managent Bureau in Dragon City handle this matter?" Sun Hang was curious.
"They can’t manage it." The rcenary twisted open a cap and took a swig of what might be liquor or so other drink, then kicked a small stone on the ground into the distance, "They really know how to exploit loopholes in the rules, all their illegal activities are done in the no man’s land, making it hard to catch them red-handed—even if you know it’s people from the Sandthorn Rose screwing you over, you won’t have enough evidence to sue them. Besides, quite a few people in the Hunter Managent Bureau in Dragon City have connections with Sandthorn Rose’s mbers..."
