Pokémon: Having just completed the Pokédex, I'm now traversing the world of Beast Taming.

Once inside, Chi Hong and Lu Yao only heard noises in one of the meeting rooms.

"Try talking to them first. If you can't reach an agreement..."

Chi Hong's meaning is already quite clear.

"Then let's slaughter them all!" Lu Yao made a throat-slitting gesture, his tone slightly excited!

Internal strife among assassins is normal!

As long as the basic rules of assassins are not violated, no one will care if assassins kill each other directly!

So, things like this happen: you complete the mission, then I kill you, and the mission reward becomes mine, right?

Assassination organizations seem to tacitly approve of this practice, which leads to a situation where assassins rarely find trustworthy allies among themselves.

Because nine times out of ten, an assassin is not a good person!

A pair like her and Chi Hong would be considered a "rare species" even within an assassination organization.

Lucario returned to the pet space. Generally, when malicious organizations like assassins hold meetings, the participants are not allowed to release their pets. Although it only takes a few seconds, this rule does not affect their fighting after they fail to reach an agreement!

"Is this like a negotiation between organized crime groups, with guns left outside?"

"That doesn't seem to hold true..."

Chi Hong and Lu Yao went inside. The large conference room was surrounded by many people, each with their own thoughts.

Chi Hong was not worried, because a beast tamer who was willing to offend people for 200 billion must be stronger than A-level.

Because the first thing is certain, and that is, very few people will take on Lin Xia's task.

The person who can kill him is not worth 200 billion, and the person who cannot kill him cannot accomplish this task. So if even Lin Xia cannot be killed, how can Chi Hong be killed?

That's wishful thinking!

Moreover, Chi Hong has clearly realized one thing: A-level beast tamers are not very rare!

The only living person I've ever seen who surpasses A-level is Chao Wen.

Is there an insurmountable gap between Grade A and Super Grade A?

If that's the case, then reaching Rank A is actually the threshold of becoming a Beast Tamer, since he has already killed several Rank A individuals!

The weakest, like Cai Baocai's bodyguards, were completely outmatched by him.

"Why are so many irrelevant people here?"

"What? You want a piece of the pie too?"

A thin man spoke up, and everyone looked at him. Chi Hong and his companion had no seats and were standing near the door.

Of course, no one noticed the two of them.

This place looks very disorganized and undisciplined; they just put two little karaomis in charge of the goal.

"Everyone's here today, so there's a share for everyone. That Lin Xia is a tough opponent."

"The person who killed him must have been an extremely skilled assassin."

Another woman wearing a large sun hat spoke softly, and behind her stood a burly man who exuded a dangerous aura.

It's obvious that this woman is the middleman, and the man behind her is the assassin she's working for.

"Even if everyone gets a share, with so many people here, does everyone expect to get a little?"

"Because my people have already been to the scene. From what they saw, it was a major battle. The assassin who succeeded didn't go to collect the reward immediately, so he must have paid a heavy price. He might even be dead by now..."

Another assassin spoke up, and his words made the others nod slightly; there was a high probability that this deduction was true.

"We'll split it among the three of us!" the burly man behind the woman in the sun hat said in a deep voice.

"I suggest that everyone here, except for the three of us, should each take a few million, maybe five million. Everyone should get a share. And if the assassin isn't dead, we can all work together to take him down!"

The skinny man who spoke first had a powerful voice; with just one sentence, he was about to drag everyone down with him. Anyone in their line of work should be careful!

"You've already taken the money, haven't you?"

The woman in the sun hat looked at the thin man, and although she was asking him a question, her tone conveyed a sense of certainty.

"snort...."

The thin man crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair, offering no denial.

"He's actually a pretty nice guy," Chi Hong whispered in Lu Yao's ear. "He's even willing to give me 500 million!"

Lu Yao curled his lip, "That money originally belonged to our Hong Yao group!"

Are you trying to get rid of me by taking my money?

Lu Yao grew angrier the more she thought about it. If she weren't a non-combat type beast tamer, she would have already made a move!

"Who within the assassination team accepted the mission is actually kept secret."

"But...I noticed a middleman. Number 73 recently rose to number 36. This speed of ranking advancement is terrifying!"

"He must have completed an A-level mission. If this continues, it's not impossible for him to officially join the assassin organization and receive its protection."

A middleman wearing glasses adjusted his glasses and pointed out what he had noticed: in reality, it's difficult to determine whether someone who has been promoted to number 36 is number 73 based on such a simple numerical upgrade.

But coincidentally, he was the one who was replaced, number 36!

He can see who replaced him in the order of succession!

"Oh?"

"Number 73 was already quite far down the list, but this sudden jump in rank suggests that it was one of Number 73's assassins who killed Lin Xia!"

The woman in the sun hat immediately spoke up.

"Interesting." Chi Hong coldly observed these people. With several assassins working together and sharing intelligence, they were able to quickly locate Lu Yao.

"In that case, the assassin who succeeded is not a threat; at most, he's on par with us."

The burly assassin waved his hand, his tone relaxed.

Lu Yao turned to look at Chi Hong, whose eyes remained calm. Come to think of it, she had never seen him show any significant emotional fluctuations since she met him.

"Since the Assassin Crimson is so calm, I can finally relax!"

Lu Yao felt much more at ease once again!

then.....

"Bullshit!"

"I'm way better than you! You're just a piece of trash who only knows how to steal things!"

"You want a piece of my money? Go to hell!!!"

Lu Yao immediately unleashed a vicious-attribute move, "cursing loudly!"

silence.....

Everyone looked toward the doorway, where a girl wearing a mask stood with her hands on her hips, her eyes filled with anger. Behind her stood a man wearing a baseball cap, his hands in his pockets, his gaze calm.

"Where did this brat come from?"

"Are you looking for death?"

The thin man slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly. He had the money in his hands, and he had to be assertive to ensure he got the lion's share!

"court death?"

"Dare to take my blood money? I'll kill you first, then we'll talk..."

Chi Hong raised his hand, and Lucario appeared, jumping onto the large conference table. He raised his hand and aimed it at the thin man, who immediately felt his neck being tightly gripped!

"Psychic power?"

"They've made their move!"

"As expected, nothing good ever happens when assassins get together!"

The surrounding crowd began to murmur, some people simply left, while a few others stepped aside, wanting to see what would happen next.
