Chapter 659: An Amazing number of Chests
After Kuroro left, the rooftop became quiet again.
All that remained was a Clown in a wheelchair. — You see everything, don't you? Of course, I can't deceive you for too long, " the Clown muttered, looking at Kuroro's retreating back.
— Forget it, even if he sees through me, he can't do anything to me. Continue to believe in the so-called prophecy or destiny. Too much faith in your predictions is your weakness, Kuroro, " the Clown muttered in a low tone. His collaboration with Kuroro was far from ideal, but they were both smart people and understood each other's value.
For example, the Clown controlled the nirapans, while Kuroro was strong and could control the remaining Spiders.
After hesitating for a bit, the Clown took out the phone from this world and dialed the number.
He was answered quickly enough.
— 4-5-2-3-1-4-8-6-G-T-T-Z-A-S-K-G-A-4-2-4, star, fishing, golden goat.
Immediately after this cipher, a female voice answered, " The connection to the three-star hunter is confirmed, please wait.
A few seconds later, a hissing sound came from the phone's speaker.
*Boom!*
The loud explosion made the Clown subconsciously move the phone away from his ear.
— What a surprise, " the Clown said, shaking the phone.
— Who? " a rough male voice answered.
— Botobai Gigante, have you thought about what we talked about last time? The Clown said with helplessness in his eyes.
— What nonsense! If you dare call me again, I will find and kill you.
*Beep-beep...*
The phone in the Clown's hands cracked.
— Bastard, how did you even become a three-star hunter? If I enter this world again, I will kill you, " the Clown's pupils turned fiery red.
— Hahahaha, you're finally exhausted, I hate those bastards like you, " said the phantom of the Count of Purgatory who appeared behind the Clown.
— I hate bastards like you, too.
— What did you say? Repeat!
— Second-rate piece of shit, " said the Clown. He had already regretted his choice. At first, he chose it because he thought it was stupid and simple, but in the end, it turned out that the Count wasn't as simple as he initially thought.
Back then, he completely ignored the fact that he was able to survive in the abyss, a place where fools couldn't physically survive for more than a couple of days.
— You shameless, despicable, vile little human, I... " Hot saliva flowed from the angry Count's mouth. He was ready to explode.
— Shut up or I'll eat you — " the Clown's smile faded and he stared at the Count.
The Count wanted to say something, but his heart skipped a beat when he saw the Clown's gaze. "Bastard, eat me if you have the guts. I, the Count of Purgatory, have never been afraid of anyone even in the abyss, and I'm even more not afraid of anyone from this bastard Paradise.
— Joke, how can I, attached to you, eat you? The Clown said and laughed as if everything that just happened was a joke.
— Hmm — " the Count's phantom disappeared.
— If you want to survive, the best way is to forget your principles, right, Count? The Clown muttered and took out a pack of cigarettes. After a moment of hesitation, he took one of the cigarettes out of the pack.
He wasn't in the habit of smoking.
— I hope you don't die at the hands of Kuroro. Compared to those arrogant hunters, you are a worthy opponent, Byakuya, maybe thanks to you, my life will be fulfilled, hahahahaha.
Along with the night wind, the Clown on the roof of the building laughed wildly.

In the lobby of the auction house.
After the nirapans temporarily retreated, the barrier was lifted, and the woman lay limp in her boyfriend's arms.
Several contractors returned to the lobby.
— These monsters aren't very strong.
— No need to be happy ahead of time. If they attack us again, we definitely won't be able to hold out.
The contractors quickly sat down in the lobby and began to rest. Hundreds of treasure chests were placed in front of the three brothers and the contractors next to them.
Due to the location of the chests, it was obvious that the status of the three brothers in their group was the highest.
— A total of 107 chests, 12 blue and 95 green quality. Excluding the three of us, there are only 23 people left.
Initially, there were 31 contractors, but 5 died while guarding the passage. There were only 26 of them left, if you don't count Su Xiao and Winnie.
— Let's discuss how we'll distribute these chests, " the older brother said as he swept his gaze around the crowd. He was slightly worried about the possibility of a feud. Although the monsters had retreated, no one was sure if they would attack again or not.
— Do we need to discuss this? You three brothers can share everything by yourselves, I won't mind, " the guy said as he sipped some potion.
— I believe that the chests should be distributed based on the number of creatures killed, " the death mage said and stared at these treasure chests. He wanted to get more than 20 chests.
— By the number of enemies killed? Heh, if it wasn't for those three brothers, we would have died long ago, " Mimei said and chuckled as she toyed with the long snake-shaped dagger in her hand.
The Death Mage glanced sideways at Mimei, hesitated, and didn't dare to speak out against her.
He had heard about the" success " of the Hunter's guild.
— Why don't we roll the dice? the teenager suggested.
— Dice?
The contractors shook their heads.
While the contractors were thinking about how they should divide up the loot, Su Xiao entered the lobby. His inventory was filled with green and blue chests.
In total, he had 102 green chests and 23 blue chests.
Su Xiao was in a good mood, but he still didn't know how many chests the other contractors had knocked out. Although he killed a lot more nirapans, he got a lot fewer chests in percentage terms than these contractors.
However, he didn't need to share his chests with anyone, while these contractors had to share the chests among themselves.
Su Xiao had a vague feeling that these chests were all half-empty, for there were so many nirapans and the chests they dropped weren't rare, but even if they only gave coins, it would still end up yielding hundreds of thousands of coins, if not millions.
But now was not the time to open the chests. Even if the Nirapans had retreated, it didn't mean that the battle was over. Neither the Clown nor Kuroro has appeared yet.
After finding a quiet spot in the lobby, Su Xiao took out some food from his inventory.
As soon as Bubtney saw Su Xiao return to the lobby, he immediately ran over to him.
— What do they have?
— Woof, " said Bubtney. Considering how much time they had already spent together, Su Xiao understood what he meant.
So far, everything was fine, but if the attack resumed, they wouldn't be able to hold out for long enough.
— The auction house will be destroyed? Su Xiao muttered and sighed. If the Nirapans start a second wave, it will only be a matter of time before they break through to the auction house.
— Byakuya, " Winnie said. She was standing at the stairs leading to the second floor and motioned for Su Xiao to come over and talk.
Su Xiao got up and followed her. They ended up stopping in an empty hallway.
— What's the matter?
— I just saw a Clown on the roof of a nearby building.
— I didn't try to kill him?
— No, I was afraid to scare the snake away. Given his skills, he wouldn't be exposed to such a stupid attack. I looked at all our contractors and came up with one bold plan...
