[Ding-!]
[Ding-!]
At the moment when Alexis was about to go to the station to leave BlackMoon City, suddenly a voice from the system rang in his mind:
[Someone bears relentless hatred towards the host!]
[Reward: 1000 Hatred Points]
"What!?"
Hearing this sound, Alexis was also taken aback. Someone had an intense and unyielding grudge against him, but he couldn't figure out who it could be. He hadn't done anything particularly bad, he had just killed a few gangsters. Could it be because he killed the white-clad young man?
Alexis immediately thought of the young man he had just killed. The way he carried himself indicated he was not an ordinary person and likely came from a powerful background. Killing him would undoubtedly bring significant trouble.
But Alexis didn't expect that someone would hold such a deep grudge because of this and seek vengeance relentlessly.
"Indeed, the situation does seem a bit strange."
Alexis proceeded cautiously towards the train station. As he approached a narrow alley leading to the station, he noticed a significant increase in the number of gang members patrolling the area – five to six times more than before.
Alexis could clearly see that each black-clothed man was tall and imposing, wearing sunglasses, and they patrolled around the train station, occupying every corner. Their military-like presence made it evident that they were on high alert and vigilant.
Every passenger approaching the train station was intercepted by these black-clothed men. They were searched thoroughly, and only after confirming that they posed no threat were they allowed to board the train and leave. The security measures were stringent, leaving no room for potential escape or evasion.
Any suspicious individual would be apprehended immediately, and severe torture might be employed to extract information or punish perceived wrongdoings. The black-clothed men were determined to ensure that the target could not escape or cause any further harm.
"Seems like I've really stirred up a big problem. That dead young man's identity must be quite extraordinary," thought Alexis as his eyes flickered with concern. He activated the <Art of Heaven and Earth Perception> to sense the situation around him.
Alexis immediately noticed that not only the train station but also the surrounding area was filled with hidden black-clothed figures. They all had serious expressions and closely scrutinized every passerby, not letting any suspicious individuals slip through their watchful eyes.
Alexis quickly noticed a few black-clothed individuals chatting nearby.
"Indeed, it's quite a grand display. It's been a long time since I've seen such a scene," one of them remarked.
"That's right. I heard that the company's head, Mr. Charles, is furious. He's mobilized the entire company's members and even ordered the peripheral members to capture that killer. There will be hefty rewards for anyone who apprehends him," another person added.
"That's understandable. Whose father wouldn't be furious when their son is killed?"
"Oh my, the culprit is in big trouble. Director Charles has given orders to capture the culprit and promises to dismember him on sight. He even wants to find out his identity and eradicate his entire family."
"Yes, they are ruthless. But this is the consequence of offending our Black Bandit Company."
"That's right, no one who dares to kill someone from our Black Bandit Company can leave unscathed!"
"Yeah, be vigilant, don't let the culprit escape."
"That's right, I've been keeping an eye on things too. We won't let any suspicious individuals slip through."
The black-clothed men continued to discuss with caution, keeping a close eye on their surroundings.
Hearing their conversation, Alexis's face darkened. He hadn't expected the members of the Black Bandit Company to be so ruthless. If they discovered his true identity, it would surely bring immense trouble to his family.
Fortunately, Alexis had prepared in advance by using a realistic face mask to change his appearance. It would be nearly impossible for anyone to discover his true identity unless he made a mistake and was caught by someone. This provided him with some level of protection against the relentless pursuit of the Black Bandit Company.
"Black Bandit Company's people probably haven't seen my appearance. I've been very cautious in the previous few encounters."
"However, trying to board the train safely is almost impossible. Once I get close to the train, my elixirs and secret techniques will be immediately discovered."
If he abandons these items, of course, he can safely escape, but he is reluctant to do so, as he doesn't want to give these valuable possessions away to others for nothing. So, he wants to find a way to have the best of both worlds.
"Right, I need to see what the System Store has to offer to get out of the current predicament," Alexis thought. He immediately accessed the System Store in his mind to check the available items.
After searching for half an hour, he finally found something useful.
[ Invisibility Pill ], priced at 1,200 Hatred Points!
This type of pill has a special effect. Once ingested, it immediately conceals your aura, making you invisible and undetectable by others around you. The effect lasts for one hour.
If he takes this pill, he will be able to easily leave this place without being detected by the people from the Black Bandit Company. The invisibility effect provided by the pill will allow him to move unnoticed and avoid any potential danger.
Alexis felt a deep pain in his heart because the invisibility pill cost a hefty one thousand two hundred hatred points, which was a significant amount considering that he had been saving up for a long time and currently only had a little over one thousand hatred points.
Alexis couldn't bear the thought of losing more than half of his hard-earned hatred points just to exchange for this invisibility pill. He felt torn and reluctant to make such a costly decision.
"Absolutely not! I can't let Black Bandit Company off the hook like this. They pushed me into this desperate situation, sending so many people to hunt me down. If I don't repay this 'kindness' of Black Bandit Company, wouldn't it make me seem ungrateful?"
Alexis's eyes gleamed with determination as he quickly formulated various plans in his mind. He knew he had to deal a heavy blow to Black Bandit Company before he could leave BlackMoon City. Otherwise, he couldn't swallow this grudge.
...
......
One hour later, at the ground floor of the Black Bandit Company building.
Charles, along with his right-hand man, Steven, and a few other trusted subordinates, stood in the lobby of the ground floor. Their expressions were gloomy and the atmosphere was tense, as if dark clouds were hanging over them, creating a heavy and oppressive ambiance.
"Exactly what happened?"
Charles glared at his subordinates, his anger erupting, "It's been an hour! An entire hour has passed, do you know that? And yet, you couldn't find a single clue! What's the use of having you useless people in the company?!"
He couldn't believe the situation. They had mobilized the entire company, with tens of thousands of members swarming the area, creating an impenetrable blockade. According to all logical reasoning, not even a fly could escape from their grasp.
But they couldn't find anything, they couldn't find anything at all. The perpetrator seemed to have vanished into thin air, as if they had become invisible.
"Sorry."
Steven said, "Director, we really did our best. We mobilized all our manpower and even searched every passerby, but we found nothing. It's as if that guy disappeared into thin air. We had some leads half an hour ago, but then he vanished completely."
"I dare to guess that the person must have accomplices, and their influence is not simple."
The others also nodded in agreement. Without the help of accomplices, it would be impossible for the person to escape their pursuit.
"Useless idiots, all of them!"
Charles was furious and had a violent temper, but he also knew that Black Moon City was not only dominated by Black Bandit Company but also had many other powerful gangs and factions.
If those influential figures from other gangs lend their assistance, even Black Bandit Company would be powerless and have no choice but to accept the situation.
However, even if Black Bandit Company might accept the situation, Charles definitely wouldn't give in!
"Director!!"
Suddenly, Steven looked frightened and pointed at the entrance of the hall with a trembling finger, saying, "Look, there's a piece of white paper there, with something written on it."
