And as for his companions and the little underlings behind him, they were already celebrating with wails and cheers like ghosts and wolves.

They had never received an employment commission with such a high price tag of hundreds of billions before!

Even more rare was that this boss was so generous, paying upfront!!!

"Since they're placing so much trust in us, we definitely can't let them down."

Muherr's smile gradually turned serious.

"We have to bring out our full professional skills, at least to make them think we're worth this three hundred billion price tag!!"

"We must do our utmost to achieve the most satisfactory outcome for the boss!!"

He decided this in his heart.

At the same time, Muherr also recalled the last words Morin said to them before leaving.

"Greed Island, huh? I heard that the millionaire Battera has offered a bounty of five hundred billion to obtain the storage data after clearing the game."

"Once we're fully prepared, maybe we can take some time to play this game and earn some extra cash?"

Muherr thought to himself.

"Ring ring ring?"

It was at this moment that the phone in his pocket started ringing.

"Hello, is this Mr. Muherr? Let me introduce myself, my name is Beyond!!"

A hearty and bold voice came from the other end of the line, "I'm recently interested in exploring an unknown land, are you interested?"

"Of course, that land is quite dangerous, and in terms of price, it must satisfy you and your team. Do you have some time recently? We can sit down and have a good talk."

Another unknown land?!!

Muherr's expression turned peculiar.

Previously, he had been very professional and did not inquire about what that unknown land Morin mentioned was.

And now, someone else was coming to him with a commission on the same topic.

Could it be that he's been out of the loop and a new, intriguing territory has emerged recently without him knowing?

"Sorry, Mr. Beyond."

Despite his inner complaints, he had to maintain professionalism on the surface.

Muherr politely said, "I've already taken on someone else's commission, and for the next year or so, I won't be accepting any other commissions."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Beyond's voice on the other end sounded surprised.

"But as far as I know, you just finished your last commission, and because of the previous 'Lubo Civil War,' you've been blacklisted by the V5, and no country or organization dares to hire you."

Yes, due to Muherr and his team's impressive reputation during the 'Lubo Civil War,' even the V5 felt embarrassed.

So, while openly they couldn't do anything, the unwritten rules made things difficult for Muherr and his team.

They were effectively blacklisted in a roundabout way.

If it weren't for Morin coming to them with a big job, they might have had to consider transitioning into other fields.

Although it's not impossible, it wouldn't be as smooth as their mercenary profession.

"To have such a thorough understanding of our situation, even knowing the current state so clearly..."

Muherr's eyes narrowed, "Mr. Beyond, you really did your homework to invite us."

"Hahaha, isn't it all for the sake of better cooperation?"

Beyond laughed heartily, then said with a hint of regret:

"I didn't expect someone to have hired you in advance, and for such a long time too. It's truly regrettable.

"May I ask who hired you?"

"Sorry!"

Muherr promptly refused, "We never disclose information about our employers."

"Understandable, understandable, it's the mercenary code, right?"

Beyond laughed it off.

Then the two chatted a bit more before hanging up.

"Hired for over a year..."

Beyond looked at the phone in his hand, lost in thought.

First Kalikuchi, then Muherr and his 'Stone Wall' mercenary group. Every time, they were a step ahead of him, inviting the people he had his eye on.

Kalikuchi was one thing,

But Muherr's professional team,

Such teams are indeed rare on the Six Continents.

Beyond had thoroughly investigated Muherr's team, which is why he was so eager to call him.

Unexpectedly, someone had beaten him to it.

"Who could it be? Could it also be for the Dark Continent?"

His brows gradually furrowed, feeling that things were slipping out of his control.

"A year and a half, this timing is truly subtle..."

Not mentioning Beyond's furrowed contemplation, on the other side.

In the castle where millionaire Battera resided.

"Another batch of new hired players has been brought in?"

Amidst his busy schedule, the one pulled out of the game world by Battera, Tsezguerra, looked at the new batch of players Battera had gathered.

---

He couldn't help but furrow his brows:

"Some of them aren't very skilled, are they?"

There were those dressed as pirates, others in boxing gear, and some were flamboyantly dressed, looking almost like transvestites.

And then there was the more outrageous one, overweight and holding a bag of chips.

Although he looked oddly fair-skinned, it was clear at a glance that he was just a beginner who had recently opened his aura nodes.

How did someone like that even get in?!!

Tsezguerra gazed at the end of the player lineup, where the carefree Milluki was focused on eating his chips, utterly indifferent to his surroundings, and couldn't help but feel speechless.

Being used as a tool by the Zoldyck family, Milluki, your journey has indeed been tough, escorting this old man.

Of course, among this group, there were also some noteworthy individuals.

For instance, the youth behind the chip-eating fatty, dressed in a black cherry blossom kimono and holding a paper fan, whose gender was hard to discern, gave Tsezguerra a strong sense of danger.

The youth exuded a rather perilous aura.

"There's no choice. After the Southern Peace auction ended, and with the serious events in Yorknew City, there are very few Nen users left here."

Battera was also quite helpless, "I went through a lot of trouble, and these are the only ability users I could recruit."

What else could he do? He was quite desperate too!!

He had just signed an agreement, and within two days, most of the players who entered the game were dead!!

It was a complete wipeout.

Although this freed up many game slots, Battera wasn't happy at all.

What he wanted was to clear the game early and obtain the clearance card [Breath of the Archangel] to heal his beloved!!

The death of so many people only hindered his progress.

"But don't worry, although some of them are beginners in Nen, I've had my bodyguards check them out. Apart from being a bit weak in Nen, they're very skilled in other areas!!"

Battera, though anxious, didn't just randomly gather a bunch of useless players.

He had his bodyguards evaluate them as well.

"Take that fatty at the end of the lineup, for example."

Battera glanced at Milluki and then whispered to Tsezguerra:

"Although he's just starting to learn Nen, his understanding of the game surpasses most people."

"Moreover, he has exceptional talents in networking, electronic devices, and technology, which can completely compensate for his weakness in Nen."

Battera knew Tsezguerra had been eyeing Milluki, so he pointed this out specifically.

"But the game is chaotic now, and if they can't even protect themselves…"

Tsezguerra still frowned.

But after thinking it over, he could only sigh in resignation.

There was no choice; there weren't any better candidates available.

He had to pick the best from a bunch of mediocre options.

Besides, now wasn't the time to focus on this.

If they didn't hurry, their card collection progress would be surpassed by the deadly Feitan and Phinks duo.

Tsezguerra already knew who was responsible for the large-scale player deaths initially.

Those two were not to be trifled with and took pleasure in hunting players.

In terms of strength, even though Tsezguerra was a One-Star Hunter, he had no courage to fight those two.

With their power, they could wipe out dozens of players; he certainly couldn't do that.

Additionally, when the card collection progress reached seventy-five, it would hit a bottleneck.

At that point, once their progress stalled, they would surely resume their player-hunting activities!!

The immediate priority wasn't worrying about these seemingly unremarkable new players.

Clearing the game quickly was the main task!!

"I have no objections."

After informing Battera, Tsezguerra hurriedly returned to the game world.

Those hired by Battera entered the game one after another.

"It seems the situation in the game is quite chaotic; even this main adjudicator, Tsezguerra, is barely managing."

Milluki commented casually while munching on snacks, speaking to his younger brother, Kalluto.

"Why don't you just play this game yourself? Why drag me into it?"

Milluki was somewhat puzzled, looking at Kalluto.

He had planned to have a farewell meal after parting ways with his great-grandfather and then leave the city to continue his peaceful life of internet browsing at home.

Unexpectedly, Kalluto stopped him midway, insistently dragging him here to participate in the Greed Island game.

"You were quite interested in this game before, even wanting to buy it."

Kalluto said calmly.

"So you said, I just wanted to buy it, mainly to study its production and operation."

Milluki replied, somewhat speechless, "I didn't actually want to play it!!"

"If you want to play, why don't you just accept the commission yourself?"

He even felt a bit helpless.

Since the game could only be activated by a Nen user's aura, Kalluto had stubbornly opened Milluki's aura nodes and taught him Nen.

"Because, second brother, you understand games well. Once you enter, you'll quickly grasp the game."

Kalluto's eyes sparkled as he looked at Milluki, "I need your help, second brother."
