It took no time for 'Mu Bao Bao' to catch up to the two cloaked figures.
When she arrived, she landed in the middle of what seemed to be a terrible slaughter.
ραΠdαsΝοvεl ƈοm After all, there was blood and pieces of people that were scattered all over the place.
The two cloaked figures were just standing in the center of it all, clearly having been the ones who had caused this.
But the strange thing was that there wasn't a single trace of blood on their cloaks.
It was as if there was some kind of strange force that had kept it all from falling onto their cloaks.
When 'Mu Bao Bao' arrived, the first thing that she asked was, "Did you take care of them all?"
The two cloaked figures looked at her and gave nods in response without saying anything.
'Mu Bao Bao' looked around the area and after a while, she also gave a nod. However, she then said with a serious look, "You've caused too much of a mess here. You really should have held back."
Neither of the cloaked figures said a thing, but it was clear by the stance that they took that…they didn't take her seriously.
'Mu Bao Bao' slightly knitted her brows when she saw this, but she didn't say anything in the end.
But before any of them could say anything, there was a sudden snapping sound that drew their attention. When they turned to look in that direction, they immediately narrowed their eyes to look closely at that area.
After a few seconds, they immediately started dashing in that direction.
As they were moving, 'Mu Bao Bao' said, "I thought you said that you already took care of all of them."
The two cloaked figures didn't say anything, but there was a dark aura that was coming from them.
It was as if they were feeling embarrassed about being proven wrong like this.
But that also caused a bit of killing intent to leak from them.
They were determined to eliminate all of the mistakes that they had made so that it would be as if it had never happened.
As long as they eliminated the mistake that they had left behind, it would be like they had never made a mistake in the first place.
'Mu Bao Bao' could tell what they were thinking, but she didn't reprimand them.
Instead, she just said in a low voice, "You should know the consequences of screwing up this time."
When they heard this, the aura around the two cloaked figures became even more desolate and they started moving even faster.
They knew exactly what 'Mu Bao Bao' was talking about, so they felt a bit of fear in their hearts…
That motivated them to do even better.
…
On the other side.
The Triple Axis and the Treasure Hunters group were currently running through the desert.
They didn't know what had made that sound, but they knew that they wouldn't be able to stay there any longer.
They had seen the way that 'Mu Bao Bao' and those cloaked figures had turned in their direction, so they didn't even doubt that they had been discovered.
They weren't willing to risk their lives, so they ran without any hesitation.
As for where they were running, they were running in the direction of the B Ranked Mercenary group.
They knew that it was impossible for them to reach town with their speed before 'Mu Bao Bao's' group did, so they were looking to use the B Ranked Mercenaries as a distraction.
While this might seem cruel, it was what they had to do to survive.
So they didn't hesitate to do this at all.
But what they were surprised to find was that the B Ranked Mercenaries were running towards them.
It wasn't just the B Ranked Mercenaries, it was also the C Ranked Mercenaries, the D Rank Mercenary, and the cloaked figures.
Every single member of their group had all started running towards each other since they had wanted to use each other as bait. However, they never expected to run into each other like this in the end…
All of them looked at each other and it didn't take much thought for them to realize that they had been set up.
While they didn't know if it was the cloaked figure or someone else that had set them up like this, they knew that they didn't have time to think about it. They had to figure out a way out of this place first, or else they would all die here today.
So with a look at each other and a nod, they started working together.
Since they had been all exposed, they would use that to their advantage.
Since there were so many of them, they would all run off in different directions and hope that one of them would survive.
As long as they were able to make it to town, they would be able to hide since they doubted that 'Mu Bao Bao's' group would act so unscrupulously in town as to slaughter to find them.
So the goal was to reach the town before getting caught.
It was just too bad that they didn't even get a chance to put that plan in action.
That was because all of a sudden, 'Mu Bao Bao' and the two cloaked figures landed in between them.
The moment that they landed, all of them turned around to run.
They split into different directions and ran without looking back for a second.
They knew that if they hesitated even for a split second, they would be killed in an instant.
And their instant decision actually gave them a chance to survive.
That was because 'Mu Bao Bao' and her group were caught off guard when they saw them running away instantly.
They didn't know who to chase first and had to decide on that first.
But then they immediately ran off to chase after them.
One cloaked figure went after the B Ranked Mercenaries, one cloaked figure went after the cloaked figure group, and 'Mu Bao Bao' herself ran after the Triple Axis group.
The Treasure Hunters and the D Ranked Mercenary were ignored since they were the weakest out of all of the groups.
With how weak they were, they shouldn't be able to get far, so they would take care of the stronger ones first before chasing them.
But once they had all disappeared, the D Ranked Mercenary suddenly stopped running and stood there in place.
After a few seconds, the D Ranked Mercenary disappeared from that spot.
…
One of the cloaked figures chased right after the B Ranked Mercenaries.
During this chase, the cloaked figure would almost catch up to the B Ranked Mercenaries before suddenly slowing down…
It didn't take a genius to figure out that this cloaked figure was playing with the B Ranked Mercenaries.
They knew that they wouldn't be able to run away, so they suddenly split up.
There were five members of this group and they knew that as long as they stuck together, they would be hunted down eventually.
So the only thing that they could do in this situation was split up and try to escape on their own. It was similar to how the various groups had split up to divide the attention of 'Mu Bao Bao' and her group to escape.
But the cloaked figure naturally wouldn't allow them to do this.
With a speed that they hadn't shown before, they quickly cut down four members of the B Ranked Mercenaries.
There was only a single member left, the weakest member of the group.
The cloaked figure had done this on purpose so that he would be able to toy with him before killing him.
As that weakest member of the group saw the cloaked figure approaching, he slowly crawled back as he said, "No, please! I promise that I won't tell anyone what I saw! Just spare my life!"
When he said this, the cloaked figure tilted their head as if they were enjoying this.
They brought their dagger to their mouth and licked the blade, as if they were teasing this weakest member of the group.
But before the cloaked figure could do anything to this weakest member of the group, there was a pressure that came from above them.
The cloaked figure looked up to see that there was a tiger that was falling down on them.
The cloaked figure didn't waste any time dodging out of the way, but the weakest member wasn't so lucky. Before he could react to what had happened, the tiger's claw had already smushed his head into meat paste.
The cloaked figure narrowed his eyes when he saw this tiger before he asked, "Who are you?"
But there was no answer to this…
Well, there was an answer, but it wasn't the answer that this cloaked figure wanted.
Instead of words, there were two more pairs of claws that slashed out at the cloaked figure.
These spirit beasts appeared out of nowhere and suddenly slashed at the cloaked figure before he could react. But that didn't mean that the cloaked figure was taken down by this surprise attack.
He jumped into the air and twisted his body so that he would go in between the gap of the two pairs of claws.
Then he suddenly turned back and landed on the ground…
But it was too bad that there was another pair of claws that came out of the ground that grabbed his legs and pulled him into the ground.
In his final moments, all the cloaked figure saw were more claws that slashed out at him before turning his body into pieces.
