Reborn: Rise of the Greatest Summoner

Chapter 153 The 1st Step To Any Conquest; Rooting Out The Spies

"Did you hear the news? There's actually a base of the Clown Society here in the Dragon Shelter, how bold of these mother*ckers".

A hunter proudly donning the iconic brown uniform of the Hunter Union chatted with his buddies.

"I heard it also, but I think its just rumors". One of the other hunters replied.

"It's not rumors, it's the main topic all over the headquarters, do you really think the higherups will let an information this sensitive disseminate so quickly if it's not the truth?"

The other hunters kept quiet as they seemed deep in thought.

One of them finally spoke again. "You're right, but think of it from this way, do you also think the higherups will let an information this sensitive disseminate so easily in the first place?"

"…"

In the end, they were all left speechless by all the conspiracy theories.

Like usual, today was a boisterous day inside the walls of the Hunter Union but unlike before, only one topic dominated the mouths of the Hunters.

Legolas's explosive reveal that there were 2 Clown Society base in the Dragon Shelter sent the whole Hunter Union into a frenzy.

All of them wanted to attack those crazy psychopaths now but they could not because the rumors didn't indicate where the enemy base was.

As all the hunters discussed fervently among themselves, some certain hunters cut themselves off from the discussions due to various reasons.

Among these certain hunters was one, James the Wolf Hunter.

He was given the nickname of Wolf Hunter due to his incredible skills when tracking and hunting wolves. He was well-known as a talkative but today, for some strange reason, he made excuses and didn't join in the conversations.

He acted strange even as they went for their hunting mission for that day, and in the evening, he made an excuse to leave that he was not fine.

Unknown to him, as he left, some pairs of eyes watched him.

…

Knock! Knock!

"Come in".

Legolas answered casually as he treat himself to the incredibly delicious delicacy that the beautiful chef of the Hunter Union made for him.

Christensen and Blade were seated across as they also ate, the other members of his faction were out there doing different missions to get experience points. At this stage, they were not qualified to enter inside here.

They entered only because they were related to him, thereby having access to all the high-paying missions that came with it.

"Master Legolas". This warrior bowed and greeted respectfully. "A warrior just left the headquarters, he was acting sneaky at first which attracted my attention, now he is going towards the location that you indicated".

"Are you sure?" Legolas swallowed the last chicken leg.

"Yes".

"Good job". He stood up and patted the warrior's back.

"Christensen, Blade, come along let's go catch some spies red-handed".

"Yes, master".

Legolas called only Predator this time while Christensen called Leo. While Legolas rode alone, his 2 students rode on top Leo.

Before leaving, Legolas turned to face his students one last time. "Another lesson for the both of you, always remember this, the 1st step to any conquest is rooting out the spies".

In this cold North, Leo was in his element, this Frost Wolf had never been so comfortable and at home since becoming his master's contracted beast.

His powers were at an all-time high.

Together alongside Captain Stokes who met them outside, they trailed after the hunter who was now sprinting fast across the streets of the shelter.

It took him 10 minutes but he finally arrived before the massive compound, this was the compound that Legolas indicated was a base of the psychopaths.

On arriving, he looked left and right and confirming that no one was looking at him, he casually walked to the booth that was at the corner of the gate before dropping a piece of paper on top it.

He walked closer to the iron gate and was about to knock before leaving but a hand stronger than his grabbed him before he could.

He felt sweat running down his cheeks as the sensation of the cold edge of a blade touched his neck, Legolas breath softly against his neck.

"If you want to keep your head, no shouts, no sudden movements".

"This is an Enchanted dagger, it's sharper than your love life so stay still and obediently follow me".

"Who are you…?"

He barely asked before Legolas put his fingers into his mouth, pulling out the poison that was hidden in his teeth as he shook his head and tsked.

"No painless death for you today, stay obedient and follow me".

If he was fearless before, Legolas's familiarity with his hidden methods finally made him feel horrified as he stammered. "W-who are you?"

"Just a Sexy Chocolate rooting out weed from the midst of plants".

Legolas finally dragged him away, while he did this, Blade already went as silently as he could to the booth as he smoothly retrieved the paper.

They returned to the Glory Dome.

That same evening, 5 other spies were caught doing the same thing.

…

Chilling in his room with a bottle of wine, Legolas read the paper's contents. He put emphasis on the 2 that attracted his attention the most.

>Red Master Freezing Winter, there are rumors in the Glory Dome that the location of our base here has been exposed. I'm not too sure since the rumors says we have only 2 bases, but I thought it wise to inform you<

>Sender: Donald<

"Freezing Winter". Legolas's eyes narrowed in recognition on seeing the name, it was still like his previous life.

He read the contents of the second paper.

>Red Master Raging Tempest, there are rumors in the Hunter Union about the location of our bases being exposed. I don't know much but the mere insinuation of that is enough for us to be more cautious<

>I advise that we change the location of our bases<

>Also, I saw the renowned Sexy Chocolate. I could not recognize him at first since he looked different from his pictures on the bounty, but I recognized his beast and his student, he's the one<

>Sender: Executioner Baddest<

A lot of things amazed Legolas in this last letter.

One, like he expected, Raging Tempest was still the leader of the last and biggest base in Dragon Shelter. He remembered this warrior from his previous life as a legend of the Clown Society.

Two, this warrior managed to recognize him despite all his precautions. And from his title as an Executioner, this was someone to give attention to.

"Nice, Baddest, what an inviting name".
