My Avatar is Becoming the Ultimate BOSS-Chapter 756 - 394: Traitors Within the Caravan and Lake Hunting, Black Cocoon’s Warning

August 24th, 01:30. Hai Fan City, inside the underground bar of Old Wu Antiques Shop.

At this moment, the battle between Lake Hunting and Nian Beast's group had ended for a while, and the members of the White Crow Travel Brigade had returned to their local base.

It was now deep into the night, the clock on the wall ticked away, and the entire bar was silent. The neon signs flickered on and off, the faint scent of alcohol lingered in the air, Xia Pingzhou and Ayase Origami were sitting on the sofa playing gobang.

Urushibara Osamu was sitting at the bar, casually feeding a crow while playing with a deck of cards.

The playing cards were stacked layer upon layer, forming a precisely structured pyramid. The crow let out a hoarse cry and dropped a feather at the top of the pyramid, causing it to collapse with a crash.

Anluns was playing billiards by himself, while the Hacker was sitting on a swivel chair, spinning it while hacking into the city's surveillance system on his phone, monitoring Lake Hunting's movements.

Yanmo Lin was sitting on a swivel chair, her head down as she wiped her blade with a cloth. Andrew was downing large gulps of strong liquor, his legs trembling violently, the heels of his shoes tapping rhythmically against the floor.

The TV was showing a movie titled "Léon: The Professional," Bloodline looked up at the movie screen, while Ryukawa Chiba was smiling as he read a medical magazine.

A moment later, the Hacker spoke, breaking the dead silence that engulfed the inside of the bar.

"It seems we underestimated the combat capability of that Child of the Nian Beast. We thought the Demon side had already collapsed, but then someone powered up appeared," the Hacker shrugged, "However... at the time, it was still unclear if Blue Arc and Ghost Bell's people were nearby, we definitely couldn't make a move."

He knew in his heart that the leader would only act when absolutely sure.

In the situation just now, Urushibara Osamu wouldn't allow them to act—after all, Lake Hunting's combat power was still intact, the Child of the Nian Beast's stance was unknown, the Gu Family's people were nowhere to be seen, likely still lurking nearby.

There were too many uncertainties, acting rashly under those circumstances would likely lead to heavy losses.

"What are we going to do?" Andrew put down his glass, suddenly let out a gloomy laugh, veins pulsing on his forehead, "Are we supposed to just give up?"

"What can we do?" the Hacker glanced at him, "Apart from that Salvation Society, what organization in the world can go head-to-head with Lake Hunting?"

He sighed while playing with his phone, "The fact is we missed the most perfect opportunity. But there's nothing we could do, that flash hamster and the Bell Tower Man suddenly appeared."

Robert scratched his mechanical head, "Calm down, Andrew, the Demon side is still healing, and they're short a few major players. Meeting Lake Hunting at this critical juncture, the best outcome would still be mutually destructive."

He paused: "Seeking revenge for Lan Duoduo only to lose more of our own people in the process, would you be satisfied with that?"

"Rabbit Head, say one more word, and I'll blow up your lousy machine head."

As he spoke, Andrew looked up and scanned the area, speaking slowly and emphatically, "Don't tell me you're not angry? Lan Duoduo and Uncle Takayama were slaughtered right in front of us by that brute!" He slapped the table fiercely.

"So noisy so noisy... should've headed straight to the casino." Anluns said, expressionlessly bending over. His gaze was parallel with the cue stick in his hand, the rear pushed forward, striking the cue and sending the ball flying.

The underground bar was shrouded in short silence, only the recurring sounds of billiard balls colliding against the table walls, bouncing dozens of times before finally dropping into the pocket.

"If I'm expected to flee here, I wouldn't mind using the last 'Dragon Ash' on our own people." Andrew said hoarsely, taking out a dark red bullet from his pocket.

Upon hearing this, Yanmo Lin instantly drew her blade.

"Swish—", a clear, sharp sound cut through the air, the Demon Blade poised against Andrew's neck.

"Quiet down, I won't say it again." she said expressionlessly, "Otherwise, your head will hit the ground before your bullet."

"Tch..."

Andrew's face twitched slightly, he glanced at her and then looked away.

Bloodline sat at the bar with her arms crossed, she didn't look up to see the scene where the little girl and the hitman uncle parted in the movie, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, she stared at the reflection of the bar's lamp sign on the ground, lost in thought.

"Leader, what about Bai Tanlang?" after a moment of silence, she asked.

"Bai Tanlang is safe, he's recuperating over at Hai Fan Mountain." Urushibara Osamu replied casually, his head lowered, playing with a playing card.

"Don't worry, old lady, the leader's crows are watching Bai Tanlang." The Hacker muttered, "I have my surveillance network on the city side, and the leader has his crows on the mountain, no way anything will happen."

"Then I'm relieved." Bloodline shrugged, "Although one of us turned traitor, at least everyone else is safe and sound."

Urushibara Osamu looked down at the shifting patterns on the playing card, suddenly speaking up, "By the way, Chiba, what was it that you mentioned to me earlier?"

"Hmm... leader, what are you referring to?" Ryukawa Chiba adjusted his frameless glasses, looked up, and asked.

"Referring to..." Urushibara Osamu paused the movement of his fingertips playing with the cards slightly, turned his head, and glanced at Ryukawa Chiba out of the corner of his eye, "The memory you obtained from that girl named Su Zimai."
