The Feast

In the Mind World.

Sulu, who was swimming, suddenly paused.

He looked up, gazing at the ocean of consciousness.

In the sky above, a pair of eyes had appeared out of nowhere.

Those eyes were bright and clear, but devoid of any emotion; they simply stared at him blankly.

A sense of death gradually spread.

"It's a dream again! My subconscious is reminding me... wake up!"

Sulu let out a soft cry and opened his eyes, "It's Beatrice... Has her strength increased?"

Through constant practice, he mastered the technique of sealing his mind to prevent it from being detected, which he named ' Mind Sealing Technique '!

Originally, Beatrice's spying could have been completely blocked.

But just now, there were signs that the Mind Sealing Technique was being broken!

"This situation... only indicates one thing: Beatrice has become stronger again, and... sensed that my rank is much lower than hers... and is preparing to forcibly sense it, or even curse me?"

Sulu glanced at the experience points in the Attribute Panel and sneered without saying a word.

This was a large pit he had specially prepared for Beatrice, waiting to bury her.

What we are guarding against is precisely this situation.

'Upgrading now would surely deter them, but that's not enough.'

Sulu gritted his teeth, determined to use the effects of the Master-Servant Pact and his advantage in the Mind World to teach his opponent a lesson he would never forget.

Three days later.

Silent Forest.

The once empty and deserted restricted area has been filled with extraordinary individuals.

Around the barbed wire fence, makeshift tents could be seen everywhere; these were the spontaneously organized groups of extraordinary individuals who had received the news.

Sulu scanned the perimeter and immediately spotted several markings.

For example, the one with a clenched fist amidst the blood is a member of the Blood Brotherhood, while the one with an eagle's head is a Dark Eagle Alliance.

Of course, members of the Church of Light and the Federal Bureau 11 were also present.

In addition, there are an even larger number of wild superhumans, but they are scattered throughout the land.

When Sulu returned to this forbidden area, he almost thought he had wandered into a vegetable market.

It has to be said that seeing so many "audiences" for the "script" that I directed is a source of great pride.

At this moment, he was wearing a black trench coat, and appeared to be a middle-aged man with a hooked nose, exuding a very cold and sinister aura.

This is someone disguised as an ordinary second-tier superhuman, approaching this area.

"Wow, there are so many people..."

Arriving at the side with more tents, which was rather cluttered, Sulu laughed.

"Of course... after all, it involves news of the treasure of the Gaoso Ancestors, and this has already been confirmed to be true..."

A professional suddenly approached from the side.

He was dressed in a very avant-garde style, wearing a black short-sleeved shirt and bell-bottoms, with a blue snake tattoo on his arm. He walked confidently up to Sulu and introduced himself, "My name is Mondo, from the Ten-Fist Society. What's yours?"

"Beru is just one person!"

Sulu looked around. "Why... are there so many superhumans here?"

"The treasure of the Gaosuo is only one aspect... The Church and the Bureau 11 may also want to track down Grede's whereabouts, and he may very well be drawn here... As for some extraordinary individuals, they just want to come and see the excitement, or perhaps pick up some bargains... After all, there may very well be items left behind by powerful figures in that Ancient Mansion."

Mondo answers Sulu's question.

"This is truly... fearless!"

Sulu was somewhat taken aback.

The horror of the Demon Ancient Mansion was such that even a second-tier professional would be instantly killed.

Although it had already been severely damaged, what gave these professionals the courage?

"Who knows..." Mondo shrugged. "Anyway, we're just here to watch the show... The real power lies with the Church and the Federation. Look, they've even sent Bishop Hughes and Harisi."

Sulu looked over and saw two professionals cross the fence and enter the Silent Forest.

'A familiar aura... Could it be someone I've seen in the Black Market?'

"Hey... if you don't have anywhere else to go, how about you come with us?" Mondo invited Sulu at this moment. "Our Ten-Fist Society is a very free and enlightened organization that values mutual help among members, and there aren't any strong restrictions."

It's clear that he's trying to win over Sulu.

After all, those who dare to come here are all elite professionals, with most of them holding a rank of 2 or higher.

"Thank you... but I need to think about it."

Sulu's original plan was simply to lure a group of Greed-Seeker to become cannon fodder.

Unexpectedly, the power of the treasure, or rather the strange changes in the Ancient Mansion, attracted even more extraordinary individuals.

'I hope no innocent people get hurt... but most of those who come are probably after the treasure, right? Driven to their doom by Greed... it seems they can't really blame anyone else...'

Sulu's mind was racing, but he outwardly accepted Mondo's kindness and arrived at a tent area.

"This is Ten-Fist Society territory! Come, let me introduce you to our other friends!"

Mondo enthusiastically introduced the other people to Sulu.

At this moment, seven or eight people were sitting in a circle around the campfire.

"This is our president— Ralph! And next to him is ' Seagull ' Cole..."

"As for these people on the right, they are all lone wolves like you, temporarily joining our ranks. This is Hulk, and next to him is the bounty hunter, Geri!"

Sulu glanced at them one by one and nodded in acknowledgment.

When he saw Geri, his expression remained unchanged as he glanced at her.

He was no longer the young man he once was; it would be a miracle if Geri could recognize him.

Furthermore, the female bounty hunter looked somewhat haggard, as if she hadn't slept well for a long time.

Since informing her that her teacher might have met with misfortune and left behind a legacy, Sulu had not contacted the female bounty hunter again.

It now appears that the other party has entered a state of vengeance, frantically pursuing everything related to Grede.

"Welcome, Beru!"

At this moment, the president of the Ten-Fist Society, a large white man, stood up and said in a very familiar manner, "With your joining us, we are even stronger!"

Even among the extraordinary, power and influence matter.

The Federation and the Church are undoubtedly in the first tier, the Blood Brotherhood and the Dark Eagle Alliance are in the second tier, and the remaining small organizations and Lone Rangers, although the most numerous, are only at the bottom in terms of strength.

Such temporary alliances are merely a means to increase one's influence.

Sulu smiled and agreed, then sat down to the side and watched coldly.

News was pouring in from the front lines.

"After investigation by the Bureau 11 and Bishop Hughes, it has been confirmed that the terror in the Silent Forest has been weakened... We can attempt to break into the Ancient Mansion!"

"The specific time is set for tomorrow noon!"

Upon hearing this information, the Ten-Fist Society's president, Ralph, immediately became restless and took the initiative to go to other camps to negotiate.
