Chapter 105: Chapter 105
The people gathered on the forum, after seeing the Security Bureau's shameless reply, all cursed under their breath at their screens, "Cowards!"
You're a powerful department of the Federation! Aren't you going to throw down with the Star Realm Spell Alliance people? Was my anticipation all for nothing??
These Interstellar Hunters, who didn't get to see the show they wanted, vented all their disappointment in the replies under that post.
Under this reply that shifted all blame onto an intern, countless mocking comments appeared in an instant.
Veteran Three-Accompany Hunter: "Damn it, Security Bureau, you bunch of cowards, where's the ferocity you used chasing me across three star domains back in the day?"
TheEmpireAcrossForeverEndures: "Trash! The Federation is doomed sooner or later!!"
EmpireMilitaryAlwaysHiring: "Ooh la la~ So disgusting~ Such cowards~ Just disband already~"
Even Loren, following the trend, left a comment under that reply: "Useless Security Bureau, doomed sooner or later!"
FederationSecurityBureauAlwaysHiring: "@ALuckyPetKeeper, the Security Bureau remembers you. You started this again!!"
Seeing his account getting special attention from the Security Bureau, a sliver of doubt appeared in Loren's mind.
You're not picking on the Star Realm Spell Alliance? You're coming after me?!
Immediately, Loren's fingers danced rapidly across the screen.
ALuckyPetKeeper: "@StarRealmSpellAllianceSoleAccount, Brother Star, look at them~~ Say something......"
After sending this message, Loren exited the post with a sense of physical and mental satisfaction.
After teasing the Security Bureau's account, his mood improved greatly.
Loren even felt that his humanity had been somewhat restored after messing with them...
"Is it an illusion?" Loren muttered to himself.
Then, carrying his internal question, he took out that coin from his pocket and tossed it into the air.
"Does daily teasing of the Security Bureau help stabilize my mental state? If not, tails."
The coin landed, heads.
Looking at the coin in his hand, Loren was somewhat surprised.
An unconscious smile appeared on his face.
In that case, the Security Bureau would just have to suffer a little more...
After this reflection, Loren opened his friends list, selected a contact, and initiated a private chat.
ALuckyPetKeeper: "A few years ago, did you rob an old noble and a nouveau riche? After two supernatural creatures died, you were finally chased by Security Bureau agents into the Beastkin Star Domain?"
The moment Loren sent his message, the other party replied instantly.
In less than a second, the other person's message came through.
WannaCatchADruidAsPet: "Did you go rob the Security Bureau's archives? Or are you investigating me?? How do you know my history so clearly??"
A smile curled at the corner of Loren's mouth. It was indeed you.
ALuckyPetKeeper: "Neither. I got the information by chance. I just wanted to ask you, for that robbery of yours, how many agents did the Security Bureau finally dispatch? What was the highest Tier among them?"
WannaCatchADruidAsPet: "Hold on! Are things already that bad for you in the Jadeite Star Domain?! Planning a job already?! You've only been in the Jadeite Star Domain for a few days, right??"
ALuckyPetKeeper: "......"
ALuckyPetKeeper: "No plans for a job at the moment. I just want to know the Security Bureau's strength, really, you have to believe me."
WannaCatchADruidAsPet: "Do I look like I believe that? Wait a sec, let me check my notes, I'll find it for you..."
WannaCatchADruidAsPet: "Found it. I estimated afterwards that over 1,500 agents were mobilized."
"Roughly 800 low-Tier Superhumans were specifically tasked with tracking my trail after I fled."
"About 700 mid-Tier Superhumans were stationed at various key transportation hubs to assist in intercepting me."
"Sixteen Seventh-Rank Superhumans were responsible for the capture. Their strength varied; a capable Superhuman had a chance to escape them."
"The most dangerous were those two Eighth-Rank Superhumans. Watch out for them; they would launch fatal attacks at critical moments."
"My two animal companions also died at the hands of those two Eighth-Rank Superhumans."
Seeing the intelligence the other party sent, Loren silently memorized the information.
Then, Loren thought of something else and typed another sentence on the screen.
ALuckyPetKeeper: "What Tier were you back then?"
Faced with Loren's question, the other party remained silent for a while before replying.
WannaCatchADruidAsPet: "Main path: Sixth-Rank Martial Artist. Secondary path: Seventh-Rank Hunter."
ALuckyPetKeeper: "Your secondary path is higher than your main path?? You're sure you're telling the truth?"
WannaCatchADruidAsPet: "Why would I lie? I only started cultivating the professional system when I was a Third-Rank Martial Artist. It's just that my talent for being a Hunter is a tiny bit better than my talent for being a Martial Artist..."
Seeing the answer on the screen, Loren was also stunned. He silently tossed a coin.
What the other person said was actually true... That's more than just a 'tiny bit' better; that's a massive difference!!
ALuckyPetKeeper: "Then do you know that back then, the Security Bureau only dispatched half their personnel to catch you?"
The screen fell silent again.
WannaCatchADruidAsPet: "Now, I know."
Somehow, looking at the other person's reply, Loren felt their mood had suddenly taken a turn for the worse.
ALuckyPetKeeper: "Let me tell you one more thing. Back then, if you had only robbed the old noble, the Security Bureau most likely wouldn't have bothered with you, at most putting on a show. The conflict between those two sides is huge..."
The screen plunged into dead silence once more.
WannaCatchADruidAsPet: "Really?"
ALuckyPetKeeper: "Mhm, accurate information."
Someone from the Security Bureau told me; it can't get more real than that...
Another three minutes passed.
Seems this news hit him pretty hard, Loren thought silently.
WannaCatchADruidAsPet: "No wonder, after I robbed that old noble back then, it was so..."
"I thought the Security Bureau people just couldn't find me..."
"Thanks. This information is very helpful to me. Logging off. I have some things to handle."
After saying that, the other party's avatar quickly turned gray, not giving Loren another chance to speak.
Loren silently shrugged his shoulders.
Busy, huh? Being busy is good...
Having gained a rough understanding of the local Security Bureau's strength, Loren also logged off, satisfied.
After putting his portable computer into the "Crimson Tear," Loren quietly turned his gaze toward the Raven, whose body had mostly recovered.
He was going to see what the Raven was up to again!
His intuition told him the Raven was "stirring up trouble" again!
And not small trouble either!!
At that moment, the Raven was hunched over, typing furiously, deeply engrossed in a chat. It hadn't yet noticed that Loren had finished his business and was coming to "deal with" it.
