I Received Messages From Future Self!-Chapter 242 - 238 Muddy Waters Fish

Chapter 242: Chapter 238 Muddy Waters Fish Chapter 242 -238 Muddy Waters Fish Taotie’s colossal strength was terrifying indeed.

He had actually brutally crushed Capricorn’s neck.

With a sinister laugh, Taotie casually discarded Capricorn’s corpse.

“Princess Your Highness, it’s done!”

Taotie cheerfully said to Fang Xiaocao.

Fang Xiaocao nodded.

She didn’t look at Capricorn’s body on the ground.

This crazy woman was very frightening.

Now she had become a cold corpse.

Life is really unpredictable; you never know if tomorrow or an accident will come first!

Throughout the years galloping through the Dark World, the infamous Blacklist, the madwoman Capricorn, just like that, was gone.

From this point on, the Constellation codename in Blacklist, under Fang Xiaocao’s hand, had become nothing but a name.

Even with the Blacklist’s terrifying technology and talent reserves, it would be extremely difficult to form a new team that could rival the one led by Gemini and Capricorn.

The newly formed teams often weren’t as strong as the old ones.

Since ancient times, it has generally been like this.

At this moment, Tom and Hummingbird also came over.

Tom looked at Capricorn’s corpse and his eyes lit up.

“Hummingbird, go loot the body!”

Tom commanded Hummingbird.

Hummingbird pouted, reluctantly walking towards Capricorn’s corpse.

She really didn’t want to loot bodies.

But she couldn’t disobey Tom.

In terms of public rank, under Fang Xiaocao’s command, Tom ranked higher than she did; Tom was the steward, while her position was just that of a minor maid.

Not even Taotie, let alone she, ranked higher than Tom—Taotie was the captain of the bodyguards…

A head of security ranks higher than a maid, but both are under the steward’s management!

Under Fang Xiaocao, Tom held a position second only to one but above many others.

If Fang Xiaocao as Princess Your Highness were Empress Dowager Cixi, then Tom would definitely be the Chief Eunuch Li Lianying.

Privately, Hummingbird couldn’t defeat Tom, and dared not ignore him; if she disobeyed and angered Tom, and he gave her a Pokeball, she would be dead with not even remains left.

Only a humanoid Ferocious Beast like Taotie, whose strength equaled Tom’s, dared to confront Tom.

After all, in the Dark World, a world accompanied by bloodshed and death, the worship of the strong still prevailed.

To put it nicely, it was respect for the strong.

To put it bluntly, the weak had no rights.

A strong person, if they disliked you, could easily crush you to death.

Your boss wouldn’t dare to let out a fart.

Because once you were dead,

You would have no value to be used.

What boss would stand up for a dead person?

And which strong person didn’t have the support of a power behind them?

Even if it was a wild strong person, with that terrifying power, all the major forces scurried to woo them, who would choose to offend a strong person for the sake of a weakling?

And so…

Hummingbird could only obediently go and loot the body.

Hearing Tom’s words, Fang Xiaocao was startled.

She looked at Tom in surprise.

Noticing Fang Xiaocao’s gaze, Tom gave a slight smile and explained, “Princess Your Highness, the equipment on Capricorn is all valuable, we can’t just leave it here to benefit those trash from the Ragnarok Mercenary.”

“Capricorn’s gear, even if we don’t use it, can still be used in the future, either to train our own talent or when we recruit new talents, to be given as a reward.”

Hearing Tom’s words, Fang Xiaocao nodded.

She seemed to find it very reasonable.

“Hmm, very reasonable indeed!”

“We must maintain the good tradition of looting, practicing thrift and economy, to build a foundation for the future,” Fang Xiaocao said earnestly.

Although Fang Xiaocao was somewhat wealthy, compared to forces like the Blacklist or the Goddess of Vengeance, she was like a tiny ant, hardly worth mentioning, with her wealth probably only amounting to a fraction of the Blacklist’s liquid funds.

And that’s just the liquid funds!

Not to mention the various industries of the Blacklist.

The Blacklist was a colossal entity.

It was also a known power in the world.

For Fang Xiaocao, who was determined to replace the Blacklist, the task was arduous and the road long.

Hearing Fang Xiaocao’s words, Tom, Taotie, and Hummingbird uniformly responded, “We will heed the teachings of Princess Your Highness.”

Fang Xiaocao nodded, “Hmm, continue looting.”

Hummingbird was startled, letting out a wry laugh.

Great…

Now looting corpses had become an official task.

Hummingbird would see the task through to the end.

Before long, Capricorn was stripped of everything but his undergarments; all that could be taken, had been taken.

“Princess Your Highness, all the useful equipment from Capricorn is here,”

Hummingbird said in a grave tone as he approached Fang Xiaocao.

“Mhm!”

Fang Xiaocao nodded.

“See if there is anything we can use?”

“Whatever can be used, let’s distribute it among ourselves; the rest we’ll pack up and take back to collect,”

Fang Xiaocao said cheerfully.

“Yes!”

Tom nodded in agreement and responded.

He moved in front of Hummingbird and began to divide the loot.

Tom distributed some of the equipment to each of the four people.

The rest he packed into a backpack for Hummingbird to carry.

“Princess Your Highness, shall we continue on, or return to the villa to regroup?”

Tom asked Fang Xiaocao, his tone serious.

“Why would Capricorn appear here?”

“Have the people on the Blacklist also arrived?”

Fang Xiaocao pondered for a moment before inquiring.

Upon hearing Fang Xiaocao’s questions, Tom looked towards Taotie.

He signaled with his eyes for Taotie to come up with an answer.

With a wolfish grin, Taotie began, “Princess Your Highness, the Ragnarok Mercenaries are in cahoots with the Goddess of Vengeance. They were invited by the Goddess of Vengeance. Capricorn’s presence here means that the Blacklist has received the message and sent someone to investigate. Other members of the Blacklist have not come.”

Taotie recounted to Fang Xiaocao the information he had gleaned from Capricorn.

“Oh?”

“Then with Capricorn dead here…”

“Will the Blacklist come over?”

Fang Xiaocao asked.

“They definitely will!”

“Perhaps they are already on their way here,”

Taotie answered as a matter of course.

Hearing Taotie’s words, Fang Xiaocao nodded.

Thinking about it, Capricorn was a key member of the Blacklist.

His death would certainly be something they would want to look into.

He was someone they had cultivated with great care.

The investment of time, heart, and financial resources was immeasurable.

“Then, can we muddy the waters and fish?”

Fang Xiaocao blinked, asking tentatively.

Upon hearing Fang Xiaocao’s question, Taotie and Tom exchanged glances and then smiled subtly.

“Of course, we can!”

Tom said cheerily.

That was exactly what they had been hoping Fang Xiaocao would do.

When in the Dark World,

how could one afford to be timid?

Black-on-black crime was the true path.

“Let’s continue our operation!”

Tom said with a smile.

Tom took out his terminal and activated the map.

He re-planned their route.

Fang Xiaocao and the others set off anew.

This time, Tom scouted ahead personally.

Taotie took responsibility for covering the rear.

Hummingbird stayed close, protecting Fang Xiaocao.

Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.

Tom’s new route avoided the Ragnarok Mercenaries’ active areas as much as possible. Although the path was more difficult, they did not run into anyone from Ragnarok again.

After roughly half an hour, Tom, who was scouting ahead, stopped and made a silence gesture.
