Chapter 84 The Brigade's Counterattack
Chapter 84 The Brigade's Counterattack
Firearms can only do so much damage to Nen users; only Nen users can deal with Nen users.
Professional tasks should be handled by professionals.
So, Bean quickly received news that the intruders had not only not been eliminated, but were slowly approaching the building.
Bean could only call the Ten Elders to report the situation.
Upon hearing the news, the ten elders and their companions were all furious.
"I didn't expect the Phantom Troupe to be so blatant."
"Hmph! It's time to teach these people a lesson, or they'll think our gang is easy to bully."
"Let the Yin Beasts be unleashed!"
When the Yin Beasts were mentioned, everyone fell silent for a moment, and finally all eyes turned to Boli. It was because of Boli's obstruction that the Ten Yin Beasts had not yet reached full strength.
Currently, there are only seven members of the Ten Yin Beasts.
Seeing everyone's eyes on him, Boli coughed lightly to cover up the awkward atmosphere, and at the same time asked in confusion, "Where did Ailiji and his group go? Why haven't they gone over yet?"
Bean was at a loss for words. Should he say that Eligi and his gang had caused trouble, so he gave them a break and now didn't know where they were?
That was obviously impossible, so Bean lied directly, saying, "Eliji has already gone there, and we don't know yet whether they can handle the enemy. So sending out the Shadow Beasts is the safest option."
Compared to Eligi, Bean had more faith in the Shadow Beast's strength, after all, the Shadow Beast's reputation within the gang was unshakeable.
After hearing Bean's request, the ten old men in the video call discussed it in hushed tones for a while, and finally agreed to send out the Shadow Beast.
After hearing this, Bean finally felt relieved. With the Shadow Beast around, things became much simpler.
Soon, the order to mobilize the Yin Beasts was relayed to Xiao. At this time, Xiao was still with Ailiji, so Ailiji was the first to know the news.
Now, three of the Ten Yin Beasts have been eliminated by Eliji, leaving seven remaining.
Now that Xiao is with Ailiji, there are only six of the Ten Yin Beasts left.
The six members of the Shadow Beasts were no match for the Phantom Troupe.
After receiving the call, Xiao looked at Eligi and asked, "What do we do now?"
Looking at the darkness in the distance and listening to the gunshots that sounded like firecrackers, Eligi couldn't help but say, "No wonder they're a brigade; they actually used such a brute-force method to attack the building. You can just call the other Shadow Beasts to go over there; you don't need to go."
Eligi already knew that the six Yin Beasts would not end well, so whether Xiao went or not would not make any difference.
"Beep beep beep, beep beep beep—"
Just then, Ellige's phone rang; it was Bean calling.
After a moment of contemplation, Ailiji finally answered the phone.
"Hey, the building is under attack. No matter where you are or what you're doing, come back immediately, understand?" Bean said urgently.
"Understood." Eligi hung up the phone. Going back now would mean facing the wrath of the entire guild, and he wasn't that foolish.
Ailiji decided to wait and see how things went, but he couldn't just do nothing.
After thinking for a moment, Eligi went back to his room and changed into a loose set of clothes. He then said, "Hinata, Gaara, and Eligi, come with me. The rest of you stay where you are."
"Yes, sir," Aji replied, his voice still full of energy despite his injuries.
Soon, Eligi led his men away from the stronghold, ready to begin the hunt.
Using Hinata's Byakugan to detect the surrounding area within a three-kilometer radius, Erigi and his group of four quickly located their target.
The Phantom Troupe now has eleven members, of whom Pakunoda has been dealt with by Elise, and Hisoka has left the Phantom Troupe.
Aside from the fact that the leader, Chrollo, was nowhere to be found, the rest of the Phantom Troupe members were working in pairs, clearing out the gangsters.
Eliji set his sights on the strongest pair, Uvogin and Nobunaga, both of whom are Enhancement-type users.
Among the six elements, the Enhancement element is recognized as the most powerful in terms of combat strength.
At this moment, Uvogin was extremely ruthless, taking down a gang member with a single punch, and as he ran over, more than a dozen gang members fell to the ground.
The bullets that flew towards them couldn't penetrate Uvogin's "Entanglement" defense at all.
Even Eligi wouldn't dare use "Entangle" to block bullets, which shows that Uvogin's body has been forged to be no different from steel.
"Elij, where is that guy Elij? That bastard, where is he hiding?" Uvogin shouted Elij's name while dealing with the gang members who surrounded him.
When Eliji, who was hiding in the shadows, heard this, he was somewhat surprised that the other party was actually looking for him.
"Hmm! Are those people coming over?" Eligi looked towards a dark place and then saw a group of strange-looking people appear.
The leader was a subhuman with white hair and purple skin.
The so-called demi-humans are species that look like humans but are not entirely human. These species are quite common in the Hunter world.
Behind the white-haired demi-human were five other people: a young man whose fingernails gleamed coldly, a bat flying in the sky, an old man covered in thorns, a man with bound hands, a red-haired man, and the last one, which was probably a mudfish, capable of lurking underground.
When Uvogin saw people coming, he asked, "You were all caused by Eligi, weren't you? Where is that coward Eligi? He still hasn't dared to come out."
"I don't know what you're talking about. You're a bunch of useless trash. You can't even handle two people." The white-haired demi-human leader said with a look of disdain.
Uvogin was annoyed that there was no response: "It seems I can only get rid of you guys first before that guy can come out."
"Hmph! Charge! Take care of these guys!" The white-haired demi-human led the Yin Beast and charged forward.
"Nobunaga, don't interfere! I'll take care of them all by myself!" Uvogin shouted and charged forward.
Five minutes later...
Six corpses lay on the ground. Nobunaga hadn't even lifted a finger, yet Uvogin had single-handedly dealt with the six Shadow Beasts. The difference in strength between the two sides was simply too great.
"Hehehe, now Eligi should finally come out, right?" Uvogin was still thinking about Eligi.
Hiding in the shadows, Eligi was caught off guard when he saw the Yin Beast fall down.
"Is this all the members of the Shadow Beasts? They're far too weak," Eligi muttered. The fact that even with the combined efforts of all six, they couldn't get Uvogin to use his full strength was something no one had expected.
Moreover, most of the Yin Beasts seem to be Enhancement or Emission types, but their strength is too average, and they don't even have a chance to bluff.
"This is really frustrating. It seems that relying on others is not as good as relying on yourself." After saying this, Ailiji removed the "Absolute" from his body and walked out.
Uvogin sensed Eligi's presence immediately and became excited.
