Chapter 182

As soon as Poisoner died, Camilia reacted immediately. Her figure flashed and she joined the battle between Tagore and Tower. Not only did Camilia attack, but Ike and another bald strong man, Bode, also joined the battle and began to attack Tower in a frenzy.

Bode was also a Rank-12 Gene Body. He was the leader of the Raging Bull Pirates. In Border River, his pirate group ranked third in overall strength, second only to Ike. He was a man who believed in the supremacy of strength. Before Gu Ding displayed his taboo power, he had always had doubts about Gu Ding's strength. In his opinion, Yarrow had fought Gu Ding's battle against Gu Ding and Yarrow had been injured. The battle was unfair. However, after seeing Gu Ding use his taboo power to kill Poisoner, he finally recognized Gu Ding's strength and wanted to make friends with him. Moreover, making a friend with taboo power might be beneficial in the future. Therefore, after Camilia attacked, he immediately chose to attack as well to make his stand clear.

Ike and Camilia had been considering when was the right time to attack, especially after Gu Ding displayed his taboo power. They knew they had to attack. Even if they could not provide timely help, it was good to be the icing on the cake.

Camilia and the others' combat effectiveness was indeed amazing, and they had a good grasp of the battle situation. Every time Tagore attacked, they would find a loophole in his opponent's defense and pursue him.

Faced with four Rank-12 powerhouses and a terrifyingly powerful cat, Tower, who only had one hand left, could only hold on for less than two minutes before he was captured alive.

Ayesha's battle-ax disappeared as she withdrew from the battle and returned to Liliath's side.

Tagore also returned to Gu Ding's shoulder. Gu Ding adjusted the slightly askew hat on his head and fed him a piece of meat as a reward.

"Gu Ding, what are you going to do with this guy?" Camilia's attitude had changed after learning that Gu Ding had terrifying taboo power. She had treated him as a newcomer with great potential and a certain relationship with a big shot, so she was more polite. However, now that she was certain that Gu Ding would become a terrifying overlord in the Cosmic Sea in the future, her attitude became more respectful.

"Interrogating people from the Dark Sectors won't yield any results. The best way to deal with them is to kill them." Gu Ding did not have a good impression of the Dark Sectors organization at all. Moreover, they were involved in the attack on Lily and had tried to stop him.

"He's right." Tower, who was bound by the enchanted chains, laughed arrogantly. "Camilia, you didn't dare to kill me just now and only captured me alive. Are you worried about the Dark Sectors' revenge?"

Camilia and the others looked a little embarrassed. They did have such thoughts.

"You and Poison Master are just peripheral members of the Dark Sectors. Your organization won't care if you fail your mission and die. Do you think I don't know that?" Gu Ding's words stunned everyone.

Tie Ta's expression changed. "Just who are you?!"

The Dark Sectors had always been a mystery to the outside world, one that outsiders were unwilling to touch. Because too many topics surrounding this puzzle revolved around death and bloodshed.

It was not that no hackers had tried to explore the secrets of the Dark Sectors in the past, but after a few famous hackers were assassinated, no one dared to touch this taboo again.

The information that Gu Ding had obtained was naturally collected with the help of Neptune. Neptune had been collecting all kinds of information about the Dark Sectors since his first encounter with members of the Dark Sectors on Great Divinity.

"The framework of the Dark Sectors' entire organization isn't complicated. The lowest level is called a novice. They usually have Rank-11 combat effectiveness, and their main tasks are chores. Of course, there are also some simple killing missions. Generally, the novice will train together for three years. During these three years, the only person in charge they can see are the peripheral members. They also don't have access to the core of the organization.

"The second level is called the peripheral. They have at least Rank-12 combat effectiveness. They start to take on some killing missions. Then, they will be evaluated based on the completion of the mission and be promoted. Once their points reach a certain level and their combat effectiveness reaches Rank-13, they will be promoted and become an insider.

"The third level is called the insider. Their combat effectiveness is above Rank-13. If those who have reached this level fail their mission and are killed, the people of the Dark Sectors will go crazy for revenge. That's because there aren't many insiders. I think there are less than two hundred of them? Also, the insiders will sometimes follow the core members to carry out some of the more confidential missions. They know a lot of secrets.

"The fourth level is called the elders. They are the core members of the entire organization. They are called the boss by the subordinates in the organization. There are thirteen of them in total. These thirteen people are all demigod powerhouses. They each manage a group of insiders and peripheral members.

"The top level is the big boss of the entire organization. It's said that he's a very mysterious guy. Only the thirteen elders have seen him. Even the insiders have never seen him. No one even knows if he's a man or a woman. "

"My information should be correct, right?" Gu Ding smiled and looked at Tower, who obviously did not look too good.

Camilia and the others were shocked that Gu Ding knew so much about the Dark Sectors.

"There are at least tens of thousands of peripheral members like you in the Dark Sectors. No one will really care if one or two of you die," Gu Ding continued, "You might not know as much about the Dark Sectors as I do. You just accept the missions mechanically every day and complete them according to instructions. That's all. "

"What you said is basically correct. I'm the same as Poison Master. I'm just a peripheral member of the organization. We really don't know anything about the organization's internal secrets. However, I know something that you don't … "Tower said as he looked at Poison Master's body." Poison Master is the illegitimate son of a certain Lord. Although that Lord is not a member of the Dark Sectors, he has some friendship with our boss. You killed the Poison Master, and I saw that some of the videos have been uploaded to the Skynet. Good luck to you. "

Only a demigod could be called a Lord by a Rank-12 Gene Body. Tower's words made Gu Ding realize that he had probably offended a demigod because of this incident. However, Gu Ding was not worried about it. He walked to Tower's side. "Do you have any other last words?"

"There's one more thing that I almost forgot to tell you. Taboo power is really scary, but usually people who have taboo power die young. "Tower smiled.

"You don't have to worry about that." Gu Ding turned his head to look at Tagore on his shoulder. "Tagore, kill him!"

Tagore raised his claws, and an invisible energy rippled out once again. It tore open a black crack in space, like a black crescent moon, and swept past Tie Ta's body. Tower's body, which had terrifying defensive power, was instantly cut in half at the waist. He still had a smile on his face. It was obvious that Tagore's attack was too fast, and he did not have time to change his expression to greet death.

After killing Tower, Tagore stretched, curled up his body, and closed his eyes. It looked like he was sleeping, as if Tower's death had nothing to do with him.

At such a close distance, Camilia finally felt how terrifying Tagore was. She even secretly rejoiced from the bottom of her heart that the two vipers had not clashed with the cat a few days ago. Otherwise, the cat would have dug out the crystal beads in the bodies of the two vipers and left their corpses exposed in the wilderness. She waved at a few of her men. "Get rid of these two bodies, and the bloodstains at the scene."

"Wait!" Gu Ding suddenly remembered that there might be something useful in the two's Inventory. He bent down and took off Tower's wristwatch and threw it into the Inventory. Then, he walked over to Poisonmaster's body and took off his wristwatch.

Camilia did not ask much about his behavior. Some people liked to collect the spoils of war after a victory. Gu Ding's behavior seemed completely normal to her. She even knew a human collector who would take an organ from every person he killed. That was a little hard to understand.

Gu Ding did not intend to explain anything. In fact, after the two people died, Neptune took over their wristwatches. He had used this little trick to trick Skynet on the first day he met Gu Ding.

The corpses and bloodstains were quickly cleaned up. Even the arm that Tie Ta had left behind was cleaned up by the staff.

The broken tables and chairs were quickly replaced.

However, the chefs in the kitchen were busier because many of the dishes had been destroyed along with the plates by the aftermath of the battle between Ayesha and Tower.

Under Camilia's auspices, the banquet continued.

Gu Ding had no appetite. He carried a glass of milca and walked out of the hall toward the small garden.

Camilia followed him with a glass of wine.

"Milca, your taste is really different from other men." Camilia, who had walked up to Gu Ding, noticed that Gu Ding's glass had always been filled with milca.

"It's not a matter of taste. It's because I can't drink." Gu Ding smiled.

"There are very few Interstellar Pirates who don't drink. Even if some can't drink, they will put on a brave front for the sake of their reputation. "Camilia stated a fact. "You're not like that kind of people."

"If I can't drink, then I can't drink. There's no need to lie. It's not something to be ashamed of." Gu Ding did not think that drinking milca was shameful. "Everyone has things they're good at and bad at. If you have to compare what you're not good at with what others are good at, you'll only embarrass yourself. I'm good at fighting, but I'm not good at drinking. It's that simple. "

"What else are you good at?" Camilia asked, putting the glass to her lips.

"I'm also good at dealing with women. Do you believe me?" Gu Ding laughed. He had been hanging around Auntie Roastbeef's tavern for a long time. Occasionally, there were women in the tavern who hooked up with men. He knew what Camilia's words meant.

"I don't believe you. You're underage, aren't you?" Camilia giggled. She was just teasing Gu Ding. She dared not touch anyone who was related to that lord.

"Well, you guessed it. I'm really not good at it." Gu Ding was very honest.

"What's your plan after leaving Border River?" Camilia asked casually.

"I'll enter Faye Cosmic Nation and then enter the Cosmic Sea through Faye Cosmic Nation." From Gu Ding's tone, he seemed very confident that he could successfully enter the Cosmic Sea.

"Aren't you worried about the demigod's revenge at all?" Camilia had thought that Gu Ding did not want to stay in the hall because he felt pressured by the matter.

"I'm not worried." Gu Ding shook his head. "What's going to happen will happen. There'll be a solution when the time comes. My current strength is indeed not enough to deal with a demigod. Who knows what will happen when the time comes. At least when I was on Great Divinity, I didn't expect to meet someone from the Dark Sectors for the second time. "

"Alright then, good luck to you!" Camilia raised her glass and clinked it with Gu Ding's. Then, she downed the amber liquid in one gulp.
