Chapter 592 Branch



The profiteer knew what Fang Yuan really wanted. Although he was silent about the information on Masters, he was generous in handing out cash.

"He’s very certain... that I’m a Demon Hunter!"

Thinking about the other party’s behavior from before, Fang Yuan revealed a cold smile. "Furthermore... halfway through, he was affected by another person’s will and suddenly changed his mind..."

That change in attitude was truly subtle, even an old, experienced Demon Hunter might not be able to notice it.

However, Fang Yuan was different.

He was born a Dream Master. Toying with someone’s mind was a common ability as if it was a natural gift. Naturally, he could immediately tell that something was wrong.

"However... the Night Family Clan..."

Towards these demons, Fang Yuan was still very interested in them. Of course, he wouldn’t do anything that would throw his life away.

Especially under the situation where his cultivation hasn’t completely recovered, if the ability of the demon greatly exceeds his, he would be at a disadvantage if he threw himself into that situation.

"Only... Did Jack think that I’m an idiot? Or was he overly-confident about his own power?" The corners of Fang Yuan’s mouth twitched up slightly. "I’m a Demon Hunter with the backing of the Union. After encountering such an event, of course, I would report it to the organization."

Previously, he found a businessman from the black market to keep it a secret.

However, he actually found out about Black Jack’s other secrets. This made him postpone his previous goal, and change his focus to eliminating this cunning businessman.

Regardless, he wasn’t afraid of being snitched on as he was righteous. Furthermore, a Demon Hunter’s job was to chase demons and then report about them.

It didn’t matter if he had told an outsider that he was looking for the Master clan. As a Demon Hunter, he had the responsibility of eliminating the oppressors and supporting the weak. Looking for traces of the Master clan so as to eventually hunt them down and kill them to make the world a better place.

Nevertheless, he didn’t do anything at that moment.

"After all... my body isn’t suited to meet other Demon Hunters right now!"

Even though he had already transformed the demonic energy, the presence of an Evil Demon still remained. If he met up with other Demon Hunters, he might get found out by the experienced ones.

However, it was alright; based on Fang Yuan’s strong magical energy and tuning ability, all traces would vanish after three to five days, and nothing would remain.

...

Three days later.

Fang Yuan stepped into the Demon Hunter branch.

Axe Bar was the only place in this area for Demon Hunters to rest and kill time. The real Demon Hunter center lied here.

Every year, there would be a large amount of new blood dispatched to each and every branch, to learn and train. With time, each youth would grow into a newbie Demon Hunter, and then they would accept large quantities of missions. Under the guidance of the old Demon Hunters, they would develop themselves while fighting with the Night Family Clan.

This type of model had both a high drop-out and disability rate. The real elites would be selected and given the qualifications to cultivate and train in the Demon Hunter headquarter.

At the branch’s front door were two obsidian sculptures with the appearance of a three-headed dog. Its eyes were made from black gemstones, shimmering in the light.

If it was the previous Hulk, he might’ve thought of them as normal sculptures, but the Fang Yuan as of now had no such thoughts.

"These should be a type of blood-source detector... If the people entering the building have demonic blood in their body, then they would explode automatically!"

Every day, Demon Hunters had to bring in large amounts of ingredients from "prey" into the branch, and the three-headed dog sculptures would eventually not make this type of ruckus. Hence, it would only focus on checking the live blood and pulse in a Demon Hunter’s body.

"With this, they can guarantee that there won’t be a large number of demons blending into the branch despite the possibilities of some oversight..." Fang Yuan was confident in his own technique as he walked past the front of the sculptures and stepped into the branch. The dogs didn’t show any unusual movements.

After entering the branch, he immediately felt like he was in a giant market.

There were many Demon Hunters that wore solemn expressions, with either leather jackets or windbreakers, carrying swords or giant swords behind their backs, and guns on their waists. They formed a flowing tide, rushing everywhere.

The main hall could fit 500 people. Its dome was transparent, and there were many words cast on one side of the wall.

"Updates on demon information..."

"Situation in Hurin area."

"Newest mission..."

"Group information..."

...

A large number of words moved up endlessly and was broadcasted repeatedly.

Fang Yuan looked at it before reaching the front of a counter.

"Greetings, respected Demon Hunter. Please show me your nameplate!" Behind the counter was a lady that was dressed up nicely. Most of the ladies behind the counters had a strong connection with Demon Hunters, and it could be said that they were relatives of Demon Hunters or descendants that couldn’t meet the requirements of being a Demon Hunter. Hence, they could only serve Demon Hunters in order to maintain their livelihood.

Occasionally, some newbies that were sent to train in rotations would be in the branch to do these jobs to the best of their abilities.

In Hulk’s memories, it seemed like he stayed here to sweep the floor of the hall for a few months when he wasn’t training.

"Okay!" Fang Yuan suppressed the fluctuation that he felt inside his heart and handed over the nameplate on his neck.

The silver nameplate emitted the shine of Secret Silver, and also had exquisite patterns on it as if it was a piece of art. Creating a forgery of it wouldn’t be an easy job.

"Demon Hunter Hulk, may I know if there’s anything that I can help you with?"

Although he was only a low-ranking Demon Hunter, he had already stepped over the social ladder, the lady smiled broadly and asked.

"I’ve recently received a mission, the employer entrusted it to me personally!" Fang Yuan spoke calmly.

A Demon Hunters’ style was normally relaxed, and it was extremely common for them to get private missions.

However, to say it out in broad daylight, in the branch, the woman’s face changed immediately. "Apologies... Private missions wouldn’t be recognized by the Union and wouldn’t provide any assistance!"

Regarding this kind of actions, any organization or force wouldn’t be nice about it.

"My employer entrusted me to settle the Night Family Clan in the Bay of Pigs... However, I feel that the monster there is too strong, hence, I was prepared to refer..."

Fang Yuan’s face didn’t change, and he spoke leisurely, without any rush, before handing over a scroll of goat-skin.

"The Bay of Pigs?" The face of the woman behind the counter changed once she heard the location’s name. Then, she looked at the scroll Fang Yuan handed over. Finally, she couldn’t help it and said, "Please wait..."

She quickly stood up and ran to an office with the goat-skin scroll in her arms, revealing a nice rear view with black stockings on her legs.

"Hmm? There really is a problem?" Fang Yuan laughed coldly in his heart when he witnessed the scene.

It was obvious that the outcome wouldn’t be good if he had continued on with the mission without thinking.

"Adding on to the sudden change in his behavior, I can confirm that Black Jack did it on purpose... He dares to set up a Demon Hunter, such a bold move..."

"Hulk, is it?" After a short while, the lady walked out, "the Vice President would like to invite you to his office."

"Okay." Fang Yuan nodded his head thoughtfully and followed behind into a room.

Golden rays of light from the sun passed through the windows and into the room, shining off of the dust in the air. There was a middle-aged Demon Hunter sitting still and upright behind a large red wooden table. His gaze was inspecting him, like a lazy lion that has had its fill.

He was the vice president of the Demon Hunter branch—Flock.

"Vice President!"

This person had previously trained Hulk and was regarded as his half-tutor. Hence, Fang Yuan bowed to show his respect.

"Okay... Where did you get a report that there’s Night Family Clan activity in the Bay of Pigs?" It was evident that the vice-president wouldn’t remember a mere Demon Hunter and asked directly.

"Black Jack from the Hurin area!" Fang Yuan said, "I’m currently looking for traces of a demon, and have dragged in the Masters. Hence, I bought intelligence from the black market businessman. He gave me this mission, are there any problems?"

Flock focused his gaze on Fang Yuan and kept looking at him up and down, seeming to judge if what he said was true.

Finally, he nodded. "Indeed, there’s something wrong... Someone discovered the first signs of something bad in the Bay of Pigs. Based on our speculation, there might be a Voodoo Corpse living there!"

The so-called Voodoo Corpse was also part of the Night Family Clan. They were a completely messed up living being that had a shocking appetite.

Moreover, it liked to swallow human limbs to repair its body. In the last stage of development, it would become an unbelievable giant meatball.

Eliminating a basic Voodoo Corpse was also a mission for at least B-rank Demon Hunters in this branch.

For Hulk, who was only able to get D or E ranked missions in the past, going there was suicide.

"I see, I would explain to my employer and give up this mission!" Fang Yuan nodded his head.

However, he was still determined to eliminate Black Jack in his heart. Even if it was a pure blooded Demon Hunter, he wouldn’t reject the opportunity to get revenge!

"I’m only interested in the Bay of Pigs intelligence due to the traces of an Evil Demon follower... and the branch was just preparing for a big operation."

The vice president looked at Fang Yuan apologetically.

"Hence, I’m being restricted in order to keep it a secret?" Fang Yuan shrugged. "Or maybe... I’ll have to join this operation?"

"As you expected... before the start of the operation, you cannot leave this branch." Flock didn’t care about the newbie Demon Hunter in front of him and emphasized, "This is an enforced operation... You have to accept it!"

"Alright!" Fang Yuan focused on Flock’s eyes and confirmed the other party’s determination before spreading his arms. "Luckily I’m not being immediately confined, but I’m allowed to do some things in the branch right?"

"What do you want to do?" Flock was a little surprised now. This young Demon Hunter was at the age where they would act recklessly. It was normal for him to cause a ruckus once he thought that the treatment towards him was unfair.

For one to be able to keep his calm and fight for his rights was a rare sight.

"Firstly... I need a Pharmacist to deal with some vampire’s blood for me!" Fang Yuan counted the fingers on his hands. "And another thing... I’d like to request to enter the higher level of the library!"

There were definitely classes for Demon Hunters to advance in the Demon Hunter branch. But there were also collections of various information—Fang Yuan had been drooling about them for a long time.
