Beast Taming: Sequence Evolution Chapter 129

“Crack.”

A shrill sound of bones breaking rang out inside the cramped laboratory.

According to his promise, after the other party finished recounting all the intelligence he knew, Zhou Ming sent the burly man off peacefully in the most efficient manner.

As for whether the other party might have deceived him, Zhou Ming did not feel much concern.

With his current perceptive ability, any abnormality shown by the other party while recounting the intelligence would have been detected by him.

If the burly man’s acting were strong enough to deceive his perception, then continuing the interrogation would have had no meaning at all.

At most, he would only obtain more false intelligence, thereby disrupting his own analysis.

“Dark Card Organization?”

After understanding the other party’s background, Zhou Ming realized that he seemed to have provoked a colossal existence.

According to the intelligence described by the burly man, within the shadow world inside the Blue Star Alliance, various underground organizations were hidden.

These organizations operated human trafficking, arms trading, organ trafficking, contract killings, human experimentation, genetic potion research…

Every illegal activity was filled with the stench of blood.

The reason such news rarely spread within the Alliance was mainly because these bloody crimes mostly targeted wild people.

As for wild people, they were those who committed major crimes within the Alliance but did not reach the death penalty, had their Alliance citizen status stripped, and were exiled outside the bases, with no base allowed to accept them again.

In addition, there were also some citizens whose crimes were not discovered in time and who voluntarily fled into the wilderness.

As well as the descendants of those who had once defected to alien races, who were also treated as wild people unable to enter Alliance bases.

Those underground organizations that survived in the shadow world all used these wild people as materials.

Those with outstanding talent were absorbed as part of the organization, while those with average talent were reduced to mere commodities.

Without extremely high profits, these underground organizations generally would not cause trouble inside the Alliance, because the deterrence of Legendary Saints was enough to suppress the vast majority of people.

However, there would still be organizations that established various outposts inside Alliance bases to gather intelligence or complete special missions.

The Dark Card Organization behind the burly man ranked among the top three in strength among the many underground organizations in the shadow world.

Its main businesses were human experimentation, genetic potion research, and the sale of illegal potions.

The structure of this organization corresponded to a deck of playing cards.

Hearts were responsible for human experimentation and genetic potion research.

Diamonds were responsible for organizational security and eliminating competitors.

Clubs were responsible for gathering intelligence and providing logistical support.

Spades were responsible for selling goods and liaising with external forces.

Cards numbered 2 to 10 belonged to middle management, each at least possessing the strength of an entry-level Professional Beast Tamer, while J, Q, K, and A were the high-level members of the Dark Card Organization, almost all possessing the strength of advanced Professional Beast Tamers.

As for the two Jokers, rumors said they had already reached the level of Transcendent Masters, but the burly man did not know the specific information.

The reason Zhou Ming was targeted by the Dark Card Organization was mainly because the Clubs outpost within Qinshan Base noticed that he had repeatedly purchased items required for researching Bloodline Genes.

The Dark Card Organization’s main business was human experimentation and genetic potion research, so they were naturally extremely sensitive to such items, as they also had to guard against the emergence of competitors.

At the same time, they would also seize the research成果 of other organizations to enhance their own internal development of genetic potions.

The Dark Card Organization’s Clubs set its sights on Zhou Ming because they suspected that there was an organization behind him, also secretly researching genetic potions or human experimentation.

“Fortunately, this time it was Clubs from the Dark Card Organization. If Diamonds, who are stronger in combat, had made a move, my situation would have been dangerous.”

After understanding all the intelligence, Zhou Ming also felt a trace of relief.

Fortunately, Qinshan Base was located at the Alliance border, and the Dark Card Organization had only left behind a Clubs branch here.

If Diamonds, who were responsible for the Dark Card Organization’s security, had taken action, his current situation would have been dangerous.

However, now that he had already been exposed, if he could not deal with it in time, once the Dark Card Organization’s upper levels were informed, his future life would most likely fall into constant flight.

“The most urgent matter now is to wipe out the Dark Card Organization’s Clubs outpost within Qinshan Base.”

Because of changes in the Blue Star environment, long-distance communication was basically controlled by the Alliance authorities. Even if the Dark Card Organization wanted to transmit information, it would require paying a certain price.

The Clubs within Qinshan Base had not yet clarified the specific situation, so Zhou Ming’s information had not been uploaded to the Dark Card Organization’s upper levels.

However, with this search squad completely wiped out, once the other side reacted, his information would definitely be uploaded at the first possible moment.

Silencing.

That was the first thing Zhou Ming thought of.

The Dark Card Organization’s Clubs branch within Qinshan Base was very small in scale.

The only armed force had already been completely wiped out by him. The rest were all intelligence personnel, mostly specially trained ordinary people.

As long as he completely destroyed the Clubs outpost, he would not need to worry about his own safety.

Without further hesitation, Zhou Ming prepared to begin the cleanup.

This laboratory, which had cost him nearly one hundred million Alliance Coins, as well as all traces left by the experiments, had to be completely cleared.

Zhou Ming had long considered such a situation. He immediately began installing the explosives prepared in the room.

Half an hour later, as an explosion that shook the heavens erupted, the laboratory and all the equipment left behind by the Clubs hunter squad completely disappeared into the sea of flames.

As for Zhou Ming’s research results and the required items, they were all stored inside his Spatial Ring and taken away.

Across the vast snowy plains, Silver Scale’s massive body moved swiftly, like a high-speed train racing through the snow. Standing on Silver Scale’s back, Zhou Ming no longer needed to rely on his own legs to travel.

Although the comfort level could not compare to a four-legged Phantasmal Beast, Zhou Ming was already quite satisfied.

The next morning, when Qinshan Base opened its city gates, Zhou Ming arrived at the gate carrying the resources he had collected.

Leaving the safety of the base in the dead of winter, if one returned without any gains, it would only arouse suspicion from others.

Regarding Zhou Ming’s appearance, the city defense army did not pay much attention.

Although the wilderness in winter was dangerous, it did not mean that no hunters ventured out.

After all, everyone understood the principle that the greater the risk, the higher the reward.

After entering Qinshan Base, he went to the Hunter Guild to clear his spoils, then immediately began disguising himself to hide his tracks.

He had to eliminate the Dark Card Organization’s Clubs branch left within Qinshan Base tonight.

The longer time dragged on, the higher the risk of his exposure.

As night fell, Zhou Ming wore a peaked cap and took a tram to the northern part of the city.

This area was stationed with many Hunting Corps and hunter squads. The Dark Card Organization’s Clubs branch was hidden within Qinshan Base in the form of a hunter squad.

Based on the intelligence provided by the burly man, Zhou Ming quickly arrived at the stationing area of the so-called Night Wolf Hunter Squad.

Night shrouded the surroundings. There were no pedestrians on the streets, only a few dim streetlights scattered around.

Looking at the three-story building before him, Zhou Ming hid in a secluded spot and began equipping himself.

The latest Leopard Type-3 protective suit, two Blood Hunter Type-1 Handguns, a portable gas mask, a Blood Fang Type-2 dagger, and re-modified paralysis gas smoke bombs…

To completely eliminate future trouble, Zhou Ming planned not to let a single person escape tonight.
