Chapter 229 Guild Spy
In Shadow Hunter City, Guild Recruitment Hall:
While Asha and Lila were having fun in the Moonlight Empire, A spy quietly sneaked into the guild.
The spy is Midnight Cipher, originating from one of the top Intelligence Organizations in the world.
His mission this time is to estimate how much the guild has grown in the past decades.
Since 30 years ago, Shadow Hunter Guild began vigorously recruiting members.
By now, there were already about 10 billion active guild personnel.
What is puzzling is that even with various enticements, once someone had joined the guild, they would never betray.
However, according to their source, the guild is relatively free, and you can exit anytime.
Many wondered what kind of substance the Shadow Hunter Guild fed these individuals to be so loyal.
They can understand that the guild offered a massive amount of rare resources.
But most top-tier guilds and organizations also have such an incentive.
Even then, Why does the Shadow Hunter Guild still manage to poach their personnel?
Many top organizations also send spies to investigate what is so good about the guild.
However, like a black hole, they would never return once they joined the guild.
All kinds of losses have already sent various organizations in packing.
Despite all odds, some intelligence organizations still refuse to give up.
Midnight Cipher is one of them, the emotionless puppet of the organization.
Enticement would be like floating dust and clouds to him, allowing him to complete many other missions.
...
Coming to the guild recruitment hall, Midnight Cipher completed the process effortlessly.
"Now let's see what secrets are hidden in this devouring beast..." Cipher thought.
First, he browsed the guild information that he had just gotten.
"Huh, there is nothing unusual?"
Besides a more advanced guild interface, all the other benefits are the standard of top-tier organizations.
Even the rare resources, besides being cheaper and more abundant, there is nothing out of normal.
How can this attract others to switch boats?
"Maybe I will find it once I advance my guild rank?" Cipher concluded.
Seeing that it would only need some guild points to advance his rank.
Cipher immediately got to work.
First, he skips all the beginner missions.
He was a tier 7 powerhouse; such a mission would be a waste of time.
Scrolling the guild mission interface, he noticed they were recruiting a miner in the chaotic sea.
The ship, Eternal Voyager, will leave in a month, which is why they are recruiting.
The guild points earned depend on harvest, which is just right.
Although he didn't have much experience in the chaotic sea.
As a strong individual, he should be able to harvest many resources.
After the application was approved, he toured around the city, not wasting time.
Cipher can only say that this city is indeed owned by a top-tier guild.
Various construction and facilities that his guild didn't even have were abundant in place.
If it were not for the lack of foundation, the Shadow Hunter Guild would have already become a tier 9 guild.
Just by seeing this, he had already concluded why many of the personnel from other organizations were easily poached.
Who wouldn't want to be a part of such a guild?
After all, if they wanted to join a full-fledged tier 9 guild, their qualification still needed to be improved.
And even if they manage to join the guild by a miracle, they would merely be a collie working hard for the guild.
Shadow Hunter Guild is just right; they can easily join and quit as they like.
Furthermore, the salary is high while the rare resources are cheap.
Where can they find such a convenient thing?
While roaming around the city, he noticed a crowded building.
Coming closer, he noticed that it was the guild library.
"Library?"
Cipher suddenly thought of the intelligence he received before coming here.
It was concluded that there should be a high-tier inheritance here that attracted a large number of individuals to it.
For this, Cipher just sneered.
What high-level inheritance?
It was just a newly created guild, less than a century old.
What inheritance can such a guild have?
Even if, by chance, they found hidden relics, it was not enough.
After showing his identity and doing complicated vows, he was allowed inside.
Coming inside, he was a little shocked.
Hundreds of millions of individuals were inside, concentrating on their books.
The crowd may have overwhelmed the building if it were not for the space folding array.
Curious, he looks around.
Grabbing a book, a prompt popped up as he tried to open it.
[Not enough credits.]
"Huh?"
"You need credits to read a tier 1 book?"
If it were not for his professionalism, Cipher would have probably cursed by now.
"Hey, you're new here?" A man came up to him.
"Hmmm, is it obvious?" Cipher muttered as he looked at the man.
"You!" Cipher couldn't help but be shocked, recognizing the man.
"What couldn't remember me?" The man teased.
"Dawn! It's you, the bastard, who betrayed the organization." Cipher said, suppressing his anger.
"What betrayal? Didn't I pay for the severance fee?"
"But the guild nurtured you when you have nothing."
"Heh! And I also served them like a dog for hundreds of thousands of years. Isn't it enough?"
"Even then..."
"Enough, I'm not your subordinate any longer; you don't need to sermon me."
"Furthermore, I'm at a higher rank than you in the guild, so you should call me a senior."
Hearing Dawn's tone, Cipher had already calmed down as various thoughts appeared in his mind.
"Can you at least tell me why you betrayed the organization?"
"First of all, it's not betrayal; I'm merely choosing a better environment."
"Alright, Alright... Then what makes this guild so great to be a better environment than your previous organization?" Cipher changed his wording.
"Hahaha, it's good that you ask. Maybe you will be my real guild mate after this."
"Come follow me!"
Soon following Dawn, they came to the cultivation manual area.
"Cultivation Manuals? Is the secret to Shadow Hunter Guild hidden here?" Cipher thought deeply.
Dawn said nothing as he rummaged around the manuals, finding something.
"I found it!"
"Here, I already paid for you," Dawn said, handing him a tier 1 chapter of the cultivation manual.
"This is?"
"Just open it, and you will know,"
Curious Cipher opened the book and read the introduction.
"Huh?"
"Heaven level manual? 1116 elements?"
Cipher was a little shocked by the introduction.
Heaven level is as rare as a phoenix feather.
Usually, only tier 9 guilds or families possess such stuff.
Continuing to read, the shock on his face became intense, and his breathing hastened.
The cultivation manual in his hands just fitted in his path.
The Night, Fate, and Calculation element that he condensed is here!
Cipher is already tier 7, so no matter what heaven-defying manual is in front of him, it's useless.
However, if it coincides with his path, there is no problem.
He can recondense his realm, just consuming more time.
Such a heaven-defying manual will increase his chances of reaching tier 8 to a hundred percent.
More importantly, given enough chance, reaching tier 9 is no longer a dream.
Tier 9 is the apex of the world.
All the people in the world hope to reach it.
Immortality, Wealth, Power, Women, everything you desire is at your fingertips.
Such an opportunity was present in front of him.
How can his heart take it?
Even an emotionless rock will be moved by tides and winds.
How can he, a mere human, not be moved by temptations?
Dawn, on the side, just smiled slightly at the scene.
The familiar routine, the familiar face.
Dawn couldn't help but smile, remembering his experience a few years ago.
Like Cipher, Dawn came to Shadow Hunter to be a spy.
However, entering the unsuspecting guild library.
A familiar coworker lured him.
Dawn, like an idiot, followed like an obedient dog.
After reading the cultivation manual given to him.
He stops around motionless for a few minutes as his future couldn't help but flash forward in his mind.
With such an experience, Dawn became a loyal guild member immediately.
"A tier 7 member, tsk another windfall."
"I hope there are more idiots who delivered themselves to the door."
"Or I could just lure another one?"
"That's good! It's better than waiting around!"
"Just a few more, and I could buy the tier 7 chapter of my manual!"
Various thoughts couldn't help but emerge in Dawn's mind as he thought of a plan.
Meanwhile, Cipher already calmed down.
"You got me this time; your progress didn't lag behind, I see," Cipher said, looking at Dawn meaningfully.
Thinking of his encounter until now, it seems like he was a puppet on the string.
A cold sweat appeared as he thought of such a scheming plan.
However, looking at the cultivation manual before him, the slightest resistance in his heart was gone.
"Hahaha, It's all for the guild." Dawn didn't explain anything and laughed.
"It's indeed all for the guild..." Cipher repeated.
As for his previous organization, fuck that!
His immortality is on the line; other things are irrelevant.
"Hahaha, Welcome to Shadow Hunter guild!"
