Chapter 249 You tricked me again

"Gentlemen, I don't think this thing is something you can covet. Please step back, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen." Spencer looked at the people in front of him and spoke softly.

"You are so arrogant! You don't think that just one word from you can make us go here in vain, do you? Spencer..." The leading bounty hunter obviously knew Spencer, but his tone was very impolite.

No matter how powerful the family behind Spencer was, it was powerless under the bounty of 100 million US dollars. It was obviously impossible to persuade these desperate criminals to retreat with just one sentence.

"But it's not impossible for us to give up, as long as you can offer a reasonable price."

Although he would not leave because of a word, he was not a fool to be a bounty hunter for so long. The two students from Kassel Academy were recovering their strength, and they might intervene in a while.

The leader knew very well that the Dragon King's skeleton was not so easy to get, so it would be better to try to get some more valuable benefits, such as real US dollars.

"Okay, but can you represent the people behind you, Mr. Hunter?" Spencer breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the guy in front of him was a smart man. As long as it could be solved with money, it was not a problem.

"Of course..." the leader said as he turned his head and stared at the group of hunters behind him.

"Everyone! I think everyone doesn't want any more accidents to happen, right? It doesn't matter who you sell the Dragon King's skeleton to. Instead of fighting them, it's better to sell it to them and share the money faster."

"I swear in the name of Arthur the Iron Fist, if you all agree with me, I can guarantee that everyone will get a substantial bounty, which will be much easier than the skeleton collecting the bounty later."

"It's actually Iron Fist Arthur! The legendary veteran of the Hunter Forum!"

"I heard that he once faced off against the third generation, and his iron fists were not even weaker than those of the hybrids with A-level attack spirits..."

Hearing the name of Iron Fist Arthur, the hunters immediately became excited. There are some talented and powerful people among bounty hunters, and he is the best among them. He was even famous when the bounty hunter forum was not as big as it is today.

"Since it's Arthur, I think he's trustworthy..."

"That's right, what you get is the kingly way, I believe you!" In just a moment, the hunters reached a consensus.

"Very good, thank you all for your trust. Then we can continue, Mr. Spencer." Arthur smiled and turned to look at Spencer.

"I didn't expect that the person in front of me is the famous Mr. Arthur. It's really an honor to meet you. If I weren't here, I would definitely treat you to a drink." Spencer said.

"It's not impossible in the future. I've heard that the Spencer family has a collection of fine wines..." Arthur paused for a moment and continued.

"So to make a long story short, the price offered by the employer is 100 million US dollars. What about Mr. Spencer? What price can you offer?"

"How about 1.5 million? Let's just think of it as making friends. We may have opportunities to cooperate with each other in the future." Spencer thought for a moment and blurted out a jaw-dropping price.

"1.5 million... is indeed a reasonable price. But after entering here, the hunters suffered heavy losses. Many people's relatives and friends disappeared on that platform..." Arthur sighed.

"So what does Mr. Arthur mean?"

"I mean, their funeral expenses also need to be settled. After all, we are colleagues, so we have to pay extra..."

"How about this, I will personally contribute another 50 million, which will make exactly 200 million. This is the highest price I can offer," said Spencer.

"Two hundred million, Mr. Spencer is really straightforward, then..." Arthur hadn't finished speaking when he felt a flash of knife light passing by. He subconsciously dodged the long knife coming from the side and looked at Spencer with cold eyes.

"What do you mean, Mr. Spencer..."

Several hybrids emerged from the shadows and surrounded the group of hunters, with golden light flashing in their eyes, and it seemed that they would attack at any time.

"Stop talking nonsense with them. We can still get the dragon bones after killing these people. There's no need to spend money that shouldn't be spent. Come on!" A middle-aged man behind Spencer suddenly spoke.

The one who just attacked Arthur was one of the assassins he trained. Although the sneak attack failed, he successfully used the Dark Light to surround the group of hunters.

It’s over... Spencer’s face turned a little ugly. He glanced at his stupid teammates beside him and couldn’t understand why they would make things difficult for him at this time.

But the middle-aged man didn't think there was anything wrong. When his ancestors discovered the New World in the early years, they treated the indigenous people in the same way. And today... he would not show mercy to the hunter in front of him.

"It seems that you can't represent them. I really thought we could cooperate..." Arthur clenched his fists, and the whole fist was covered with a layer of black under Spencer's gaze.

The two sides immediately started fighting, and Spencer could only glare at the middle-aged man fiercely. He could have solved the problem without bloodshed, but in the end, everything was ruined by him.

"After I return this time, I will report the situation to Mr. Henkel truthfully..."

"Hmph! You are too cowardly, Spencer. When will these peasants have the chance to negotiate terms with us?" The middle-aged man fought back unyieldingly.

He had no intention of resolving the issue peacefully from the beginning to the end. To him, it was always safest to keep the money with him. Moreover, he had just noticed the strength of these guys and they were not as strong as he had imagined.

Even if Arthur in front of him had not taken action yet, he didn't think that this guy could survive the siege of so many assassins.

"Are they fighting now? Weren't they just..." Not far away, Lu Mingfei was supporting Chu Zihang and Caesar, with a look of confusion on his face.

"That's normal. It seems that not all of those guys are smart. There are always some stingy ones." Caesar smiled.

I thought this group of nobles outside the secret party would be very powerful, but now they seem to be just a bunch of loose sand. Even Spencer, who looked very threatening, could not completely make them obey his orders. "Something is wrong..." Chu Zihang frowned and suddenly spoke.

"Huh? What did you find? Chu Zihang..." Caesar turned his head and asked the serious Chu Zihang.

"This is Nibelung, the kingdom of the dead created by the Dragon King. If the Dragon King is dead, then why is it still here?" Chu Zihang said.

Although this was only his second time in Nibelungen, if Nibelungen was the creation of the Dragon King, there was no reason why it would still be intact, right?
"You mean... Fenrir is not dead?" Caesar was a little surprised. Although the attack of the two of them just now could not be compared with the World-Destroying Word Spirit, at least the power was similar to the storm torpedo provided by the Equipment Department before.

Boom! As soon as the conversation between the two ended, Fenrir, who had originally closed his eyes, suddenly opened them and swept his claws towards the hybrids beside him.

Countless blood mists exploded, and this attack directly killed or injured more than half of the hunters and warriors who were still fighting! The middle-aged man who was arguing with Spencer just now also died.

"It's still alive! Run!" Spencer didn't care about the lives of others. He used all his strength to activate the Word Spirit Vampire Scythe. The wind blades interfered with Fenrir's vision, and he quickly retreated.

The other hybrids who were lucky enough not to be affected also tried their best to distance themselves from Fenrir.

"It shouldn't be able to attack me now..." Arthur came to a safe distance and looked at Fenrir on the wall in front of him, and heaved a sigh of relief temporarily.

But the next moment, the wall began to tremble continuously, and under his desperate gaze, countless thick stones fell off, and Fenrir crawled out of the wall intact.

With wings that covered the sky and the sun spread out, it flew into the air, letting out a deafening roar, and its golden eyes looked down at the people below, like a god.

"It's over..." Arthur's voice was a little dry. He didn't expect Fenrir to be unharmed, and... being sealed in the wall was just an illusion.

"Let's continue playing..." Fenrir's voice was extremely majestic, but it revealed a hint of innocence. He glanced at everyone present and continued speaking.

"If you lose to me, you will die..."

"Help me up..." Chu Zihang struggled to get up, and Lu Mingfei beside him hurriedly supported him again.

"Can you continue like this? Senior Brother Chu..."

Chu Zihang did not answer him, but just stared at Fenrir in the sky. He didn't want to be stubborn, but if someone had to sacrifice to save others, he would still choose himself.

It’s not because I want to be a hero, but... I am the only one who has the best chance of success, even if there is only the slightest chance.

"We can't just sit there and wait to die..." Caesar on the side also propped himself up with his hunting knife and glanced at Chu Zihang beside him.

"You can't be the only one showing off. We don't know where Gu Ye is, but we can't always rely on him to deal with the Dragon King. This time you should witness the two seniors' first dragon-slaying performance..."

"I can help too!" Lu Mingfei shook his head and said, holding the saber.

"No, you have to live... Tell Nuo Nuo a message for me, I may have to break my promise..." Caesar pushed Lu Mingfei away and stroked the arrow made of the Philosopher's Stone in his arms.

There was still a chance. At least this trump card had not been used yet... But could he really seize the remaining chance? Regardless of the outcome, Caesar had to give it a try.

Thinking of this, he and Chu Zihang supported each other and walked towards Fenrir step by step under the gaze of everyone.

Sometimes, even if they know they will die, there are fools who are willing to go forward bravely and die bravely, not because they want to be heroes, but because they have reasons to do it, even if there is only a glimmer of hope.

"I have to say, they are true heroes." Spencer's expression was a little complicated. At this moment, he saw something beyond interests, so dazzling that he dared not look directly at it. He put his hand on his chest and paid the highest respect to the two of them.

"Cover them, members of the Spencer family!"

No longer holding back his strength, Spencer gave orders to the hybrids behind him. This time he suddenly wanted to act willfully, even if it would bring unnecessary losses to the Spencer family.

Still being regarded as a burden... Lu Mingfei stared blankly at the backs of Chu Zihang and Caesar. Although he had made a lot of progress, there was still a gap compared to Chu Zihang and Caesar.

Even at the last moment, the two seniors chose to protect him and sacrifice themselves. The hands holding the saber became tighter and tighter, and Lu Mingfei felt that the scales on the handle pierced his palms.

The blood flowed from his palm to the blade. He had never felt so unwilling before. At the same time, he couldn't help but imagine, if Gu Ye was there, would this thing not have happened?
Brother Gu, where are you? Lu Mingfei couldn't help but pray in his heart, how much he hoped that Gu Ye could appear at this time...

Just as Lu Mingfei was praying silently, the temperature in the air suddenly rose a lot, and a burst of air broke through the head. Chu Zihang and Caesar, who were halfway there, raised their heads subconsciously, and saw a meteor-like figure, dragging a long tail flame and smashing in front of everyone.

"I shouldn't be too late, right?" Gu Ye's voice appeared in the smoke and dust.

"You finally made it. If you had come later, you would have been able to collect our bodies..." Caesar smiled with relief.

“Brother is here, don’t worry… I’m serious, you just need to watch quietly…” Gu Ye turned around, his tall figure was as reliable as ever.

"Really... you've fooled me again..." Chu Zihang sighed and spoke while looking at Gu Ye's back.

Why does this guy always appear at critical moments?
