Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 663: Chapter 57: Astonishing Number of Treasure Chests

After Chrollo left, the rooftop returned to silence, leaving only the Clown seated in the wheelchair.

”Already seen through? As expected, I can’t fool him for long.”

The Clown watched Chrollo’s departing figure, seemingly sensing something.

”Forget it, even if he saw through me, he can’t do anything about it. Continue to believe in that so-called prophecy or fate, Chrollo. Trusting in Nen abilities so much is your weakness.”

The Clown muttered softly; his cooperative relationship with Chrollo was far less stable than it appeared. However, both were smart people who understood each other’s value.

For instance, the Clown knew the weaknesses of the Nilapan Tribe, while Chrollo had strong combat power and had several group members under him.

Sitting in the wheelchair in hesitation for a moment, the Clown took out a phone from the Hunter World and dialed.

Beep... Beep... The phone was answered.

”4.5231.486GTTH.ASKGA424, star, fishing, golden goat.”

After reciting a long code, a female voice came from the phone.

”Code correct, connecting to the three-star hunter.”

A moment later, a hissing sound came from the phone.

Boom!

An explosion sounded through the receiver, making the Clown instinctively turn his head.

”What a ’surprise’. ”

The Clown shook the phone in his hand, suspecting it was broken.

”Who.”

A rough male voice came from the phone.

”Mr. Luke Freeman, what about the matter we discussed last time?”

Usually composed, the Clown actually showed some helplessness in his eyes.

”Not well, scram! Dare to call again and I’ll crush your balls.”

Beep beep beep... The phone was hung up, and the Clown applied force, crushing the phone with a crack.

”A muscle-brained fool like this can actually become a three-star hunter? If I have the chance to enter the Hunter World again, I must devour your soul.”

The Clown’s pupils turned fiery red, as if flames of purgatory were burning inside.

”Hahaha, you sinister villain finally got served, I hate schemes and deception.”

The shadow of the Count of Purgatory behind the Clown laughed incessantly, with magma spurting from his nostrils, which was actually his snot.

”I hate fools, like you.”

”What did you say? Say it again!!”

”I hate fools, like you, huh, never seen such a strange request, getting scolded and wanting to hear it twice.”

The Clown somewhat regretted choosing this Demon God. Initially, he chose him because he wasn’t cunning, acted without thinking, and was easily manipulated.

However, after spending some time together, the Clown was surprised to find that the Count of Purgatory was not just brainless, but downright stupid. Had it not been for his powerful bloodline, he would have died in the Black Abyss long ago.

”You shameless, despicable, lowly human, I...”

With burning anger, the Count of Purgatory sprayed hot saliva as he spoke, almost exploding with rage.

”Shut up, or I’ll devour you.”

The smile on the Clown’s face suddenly disappeared as he turned to look at the shadow of the Count of Purgatory.

The Count of Purgatory wanted to speak, but after seeing the Clown’s gaze, his heart skipped a beat.

”You ’freak’, go ahead, devour me if you dare. I, the Count of Purgatory, have never feared anyone, not in the Black Abyss, and not in this Reincarnation Paradise.”

”Just kidding, you are the Demon God I depend on, how could I devour you.”

The Clown burst into a laugh, as if everything earlier was a joke.

”Humph,”

The shadow of the Count of Purgatory disappeared, feeling he would be devoured soon.

”The best way to survive is to have no principles, wouldn’t you agree, Count of Purgatory?”

The Clown took out a pack of cigarettes, hesitated for a moment, and pulled one out, though he had no habit of smoking.

”I hope you don’t die at Chrollo’s hands. Compared to those arrogant Hunters in the past, you are truly my opponent, Bai Ye. Maybe because of you, my life will be complete, hahahaha.”

The night wind blew, and a Clown on the rooftop laughed maniacally.

...

Inside the auction hall.

After the temporary retreat of the Nilapan Tribe, the barrier had been withdrawn, and the Barrier Master girl limply leaned against her boyfriend.

Several Contractors approached from the back door direction.

”These monsters aren’t much.”

”Don’t speak too soon; if this assault continued for another hour, we definitely couldn’t hold out.”

The Contractors sat in a circle in the hall, with the National Team Brothers having over a hundred treasure chests placed before them, beside them was a Fans Girl.

From the placement of the treasure chests, it was clear the National Team Brothers held a significant status among the Contractors; capable people, even if a bit goofy, earn respect.

”107 treasure chests in total, 12 are Blue Quality, 95 are Green Quality. Excluding the three of us, there are 23 people present.”

Initially, there were 31 Contractors, but 5 died while guarding the back door, leaving only 26 now, not including Su Xiao and Vini.

”Let’s discuss how to distribute these treasure chests.”

The Boss of the National Team glanced around the crowd, slightly worried about potential infighting among the Contractors. Although those monsters had retreated, no one could be sure if they’d attack again.

”Isn’t it obvious? However the National Team Brothers decide to distribute, we have no objections.”

A Spearman, who had barely participated, spoke up.

”Based on kills.”

The Death Mage stared at the treasure chests; his expectation was to acquire more than 20.

”Kills? Huh, without the National Team Brothers blocking at the front, you’d have been dead long ago.”

The Fans Girl sneered, playing with a snake-shaped long dagger in her hand.

The Death Mage glanced at the Fans Girl sidelong, hesitated for a moment but didn’t dare to confront her; he had heard the tale of the Hunter Alliance.

”Everyone, why don’t we roll the dice?”

A young man suggested.

”Roll?”

The Contractors all shook their heads.

While the Contractors were dividing the loot, Su Xiao walked into the hall, his storage space filled with Green and Blue Quality treasure chests.

Green Treasure Chests and 23 Blue Treasure Chests; it was undoubtedly a fortune.

Su Xiao was in a good mood, but he didn’t know how many treasure chests the Contractors had. He had killed far more Neerapan than the Contractors, yet his number of treasure chests was only slightly higher than theirs.

However, he enjoyed these treasure chests alone, while the Contractors had to split among 26 people. Lacking luck, one could compensate with strength.

Su Xiao vaguely suspected that these treasure chests might be quite useless; treasure chests dropped by killing Neerapan had a high probability of being unsatisfactory. But even so, it was a considerable sum.

Now wasn’t the time to open the treasure chests; although the Nilapan had retreated, it didn’t mean they had given up, not to mention the Clown and Chrollo hadn’t shown up.

Finding a quiet spot in the hall, Su Xiao took out some food from his storage space, resting while replenishing his body’s needed energy.

Bubu Wang found Su Xiao after he entered the hall, running over happily.

”How’s the situation at the back door?”

”Woof.”

Bubu Wang barked once, and the ’Beast Language MAX Level’ Su Xiao understood Bubu Wang’s meaning.

Not stable, but it won’t be breached anytime soon.

”Is the auction house close to falling? Expected.”

Su Xiao sighed. If the Neerapan launched a second wave of assaults, breaching the auction house was just a matter of time.

”Bai Ye.”

Vini stood at the stairs leading to the second floor, signaling for Su Xiao to come over for a chat.

Su Xiao stood and entered the staircase, closing the hallway door tightly.

”What is it?”

”I just saw the Clown, on a nearby rooftop.”

”You didn’t shoot?”

”No, I was afraid of alerting him. With the Clown’s intelligence, he wouldn’t expose himself under a gun’s muzzle unprepared. Judging by the current situation, the auction won’t hold for long, so I have a bold plan...”
