With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 436 Strange Rumour (10)

?

The next morning, the groups didn't gather again.

They all had different places that they had been assigned, so they had gone out at different times.

As for the target, 'Mu Bao Bao', she was still hiding inside of her inn.

The Triple Axis and Treasure Hunters group silently made their way through the desert with doubtful looks on their faces.

The leader of the Treasure Hunters group was the one that had the piece of paper that they had received from the cloaked figure. Or rather, he had one part of the piece of paper that the cloaked figure had left for them.

When they had looked at it last night, they had found that there were several copies of the same information on that large piece of paper. There were also names on each part of the piece of paper that signified which part belonged to which group.

The Treasure Hunters group and the Triple Axis group had all received a piece of a paper addressed to them.

The one that had taken this was the middle aged man, but he had left everything to the leader of the Treasure Hunters group.

After all, he knew that the leader of the Treasure Hunters group was more shrewd than him.

Even if he was smart enough not to be trapped with words, when it came to things like this, it was better to leave it to a professional.

That was the leader of the Treasure Hunters group.

On that piece of paper was a location that they had to go to. The piece of paper had also stated that some time in the afternoon, the target 'Mu Bao Bao' would go to that location.

They just had to find some kind of way to get some information out of 'Mu Bao Bao' when she let her guard down there.

As for why she would go there and why she would let her guard down…the piece of paper didn't say anything.

So that was why they were all doubtful.

But since they had already accepted to work with the cloaked figure…it wasn't as if they could back down now.

Not to mention, they wouldn't even know what would happen to them if they did back down.

So it wasn't the time to be thinking about this.

What they should be thinking about was how to deal with the situation that was in front of them.

The location that the piece of paper referred them to wasn't that far away from the town, so it didn't take them long to arrive. Of course, they had come out much too early for 'Mu Bao Bao' to be here.

They didn't know what would happen, so they had come out earlier to scout out the area.

When they looked closely, they could see that there were others here as well.

And as for who they were, it was the B Rank and C Rank group that they had met last night.

These people had also received pieces of paper that were similar to the ones that they had received. The only difference was that the location that they were expected to be in was different.

When they saw each other, they didn't greet each other and worked on their own thing.

This was just a job and just because they were working together, that didn't mean that they had to be friendly with each other.

In fact, if it came to it…they wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice each other to survive.

It was the same with the Triple Axis and Treasure Hunters group.

If it came down to it, both sides would be willing to abandon the other to survive.

But that was the absolute last case scenario for them who had already agreed to work together.

It just went to show what kind of a cruel world it was for them. Especially since they worked as mercenaries which made it even more cruel.

Still, this was what they did and they accepted it.

It didn't take them long to find a good place for their group in the location that was specified on the piece of paper. So while they still had time before 'Mu Bao Bao' arrived, they set up everything that they needed.

But as they were doing it, the doubt was still heavily lingering on their minds.

"Do you really think that she'll come?" One of the girls from the Treasure Hunters group couldn't help asking.

The moment that she said this, there was a silence that lingered in the air.

Everyone had looks on their faces that showed that they thought otherwise, but not a single one of them said a thing. In fact, it was almost as if they were afraid to say anything just in case anyone was listening…

But in the end, the middle aged man said, "It doesn't matter what we think right now. We have been hired for a job and we'll see it through."

The others looked at him with strange looks, but they agreed in the end and went to take their places.

As time passed, they couldn't help feeling more and more doubtful that anything was going to happen…I think you should take a look at

That is until something did happen.

No one knew how it happened or what it was, but there was a sudden burst of energy that came from nearby.

When they looked more closely, they found that there was even a beam of light that had shot into the sky.

If they could feel it this intensely here, then…the people in the town must also feel it.

Could it be that the cloaked figure had predicted that this would happen or did the people behind the cloaked figure cause this to happen?

With how powerful the energy coming from it was, they also knew that there was something that was powerful releasing this energy.

If they could get such a thing…

But that thought only lasted for a second.

They knew how powerful the cloaked figure was and they could guess how powerful the people behind him were. If they were to go in and mess up the plan by trying to fight for this item, then they would just be forfeiting their own lives.

At the same time, there was 'Mu Bao Bao' who was about to come.

There was no way that 'Mu Bao Bao' wouldn't come with these powerful energy fluctuations, so she would be lured in and they would be able to find what they wanted.

With how powerful 'Mu Bao Bao' was, if they tried to contest for the thing…they might just be killed by her.

So all of them went back to their positions and waited for their target to come.

At the same time though, they couldn't help wondering just who the cloaked figure was.

…

Inside of the town, there were many people that had felt this energy fluctuation.

They could tell that it was very powerful and that incited the greed of many people.

Even if they had remained idle because of the cloaked figure's threats, the greed for this item was just too much for them.

So in the end, the people that had gathered in town left in droves, looking for the source of these energy fluctuations.

That also included 'Mu Bao Bao'.

'Mu Bao Bao' had just come out for her daily meal when she suddenly felt these energy fluctuations.

Her expression was quite calm at first, but then it suddenly changed as she muttered, "The Love Sect?"

After muttering this, her brows deeply knitted as if there was a problem and she couldn't help looking in the direction that the energy fluctuations were coming from. After hesitating for a bit longer, she finally started moving.

She didn't go back to her inn, but rather she ran to the gate and headed out the town.

She didn't know what was waiting out there for her, but this was related to her mission here and she had no choice but to go.

After all, the main reason she had taken the identity of 'Mu Bao Bao' was all to lure in the remnants of the Love Sect. Now that there was something that was related to the Love Sect that appeared, she had to go check it out.

Since she was at a higher level of cultivation than the rest, 'Mu Bao Bao' moved much faster than everyone else that was heading that way.

But since it was close to the town and there were those that had left while she was still in a daze, there was already a crowd that had gathered around where the beam of light came from.

When 'Mu Bao Bao' arrived, the crowd immediately moved away from her.

After all, most of the people here were those that had come to investigate 'Mu Bao Bao' in the first place.

They were able to recognize her with a single glance.

Not to mention, they all knew how powerful she was.

'Mu Bao Bao' didn't mind any of this as she stared at the beam of light that was coming from the land.

She narrowed her eyes as she looked at where it was coming from and then she suddenly…jumped down into that valley.

When the others saw this, they were all shocked.

However, as soon as they reacted, they all jumped down into the valley with her.

While they were certain that they wouldn't be able to beat her head on, they all wanted to try their luck to see if they could get anything.

When 'Mu Bao Bao' landed down in the valley, she looked in front of her at the thing releasing the beam of light.
