The so-called black group is a hunting group that has not yet been registered under a federal agency.

The hunting group is an unofficial adventurous group. They accept various commissions, from escorting objects to protecting important people, and even participating in wars. For hunting groups, the Federation has a set of strict management procedures. According to the requirements of the federal government, hunting groups must be registered with the administration under the federal name, and the identities of all group members must be recorded and filed. The administration will conduct an assessment and review of regular hunting groups every year, which will determine the level of the hunting group.

After hundreds of years of operation, the hunting group has its own set of levels, and the federal government uses stars to evaluate the value of the hunting group. Generally, hunting groups below three-star can only accept commissions for matters within the planet, and three-stars and above can accept commissions from the federal government or wealthy aristocrats on the battlefield in the outer domain. After the hunting group reaches a sufficient star rating and a fee is paid, it can even buy the coordinates of an outer planet from the federal government, thus possessing the right to develop this planet.

The hunting group established under the name of the nobility has three-star privileges from the beginning. Of course, it is limited to the privileges of famous nobles or older nobles. After all, the family hunting group is mainly used to develop colonial planets. At this point, the federal government has opened the door to convenience.

Regular hunting groups must pay certain taxes to the federal government every year. In contrast, the Federal Administration will provide them with various services. The hunting groups that have not been registered before, that is, black groups, are cheaper than other hunting groups because of tax evasion. Moreover, these groups take on all tasks. In the eyes of the federal government, they are basically linked to criminals.

At noon, Allen got the information about the Black Widow. This black group is currently executing a commission in the 13th area on the surface. The content of the commission is to clean a small town, but it has encountered a strong counterattack. The battle between the two sides is currently in a stalemate.

After Alan finished reading the information, the butler Haising said, "The civil transport aircraft to the 13th area on the surface will not depart until three days later. The master has asked me to buy a round-trip ticket for you, master. Master means It is for you to make more preparations in the past few days. It is best to choose a few powerful players from the family guard to accompany you. As for the expenses, they will be deducted from your private account."

Allen nodded and said: "Mr. Lauhsing will pick me five guards. By the way, I don't know if there is a master in Rubik's Cube sequence in our castle. I need a second set of magic power. Make some adjustments to be able to use it immediately. Of course, I will pay all the expenses."

Heising heard this, shook his head and laughed: "Master Ellen, you may not know. Masters of Rubik's Cube sequence design are very rare in Babylon. Most of them are in the hands of the federal government, even the wealthy. How can we master such resources. Not to mention masters, we even need to regularly borrow from the Federal Ministry of Technology to maintain the mana equipment technicians, so there is no such talent in the castle."

"In this case, I'm afraid I have to visit Mr. Hughton." Allen frowned. If there is no talent for debugging the Rubik's Cube sequence in the Ujal Castle, then he can only go to Hughton to modify the weaponry. Rubik's Cube sequence to reduce the sequence's demand for source power. Otherwise, his current tenth-level engraver's strength is not enough to drive the second-level magic equipment.

"It turned out to be Mr. Hughton. Speaking of him, he was once your mentor. Yes, Mr. Hughton has a lot of research on Rubik's Cube sequence. But his residence..." Heisingu smiled: "Hughton The husband is not a hospitable person, and not many people know where he lives. If you want to inquire, I am afraid that you can’t find out in three days."

Allen shook his head and said: "No need, he gave me the address, I only need a driver and a speed car."

"Mr. Hughton gave you the address?" Haising asked in surprise.

"Well, because he promised me that he can teach me the knowledge of Rubik's Cube sequence."

Hessing whispered: "If this is the case, I need to tell the master immediately. Master Ellen, please come with me."

When he came to Horn's study again, the Bethkod patriarch was immersed in the documents that were as high as a hill. Hearing Heising's request, Horn raised his head, took off his glasses and said unexpectedly: "You said Hughton promised to instruct Allen on the Rubik's Cube sequence?"

"The young master told me this personally, and Mr. Hughton also told the young master the address of his residence, he should not be able to leave." Haixin said.

Horn laughed and said: "Okay, you let Allen in."

After a while, Allen entered the study. Horn looked at him and said, "Listen to Allen, this is a rare opportunity. You have to learn from Hughton with your heart. The talents in sequence design are also very scarce in the Federation, and it is the object of each family vying to win over. .You don’t even need to be a master, as long as you have the potential of a technician, it’s worth the family’s investment for you, plus if you graduate from the Blade of Dawn, you don’t have to worry about your prospects at all."

"At that time, it is not a problem to be included in the heir sequence, and your ranking will directly jump to the first place. After you become an adult, you will also have a place in the family elders. So you see, you must seize this rare opportunity. Go and be a student of Hughton."

Fifteen minutes later, a speeding car left Ugalle Castle and drove along the highway towards the city of Babylon. Horn didn't go with him, but he did what he liked and asked Allen to bring a good wine "Blue Moonlight" from his collection, which was undoubtedly a terrible temptation for the old alcoholic Hughton.

According to the address provided by Hughton, two hours later, the speed car stopped in front of a three-story building on the southern section of Leo Avenue. On the golden floating island of Babylon, the most prosperous area is no more than the area around Dawn Square and Golden Wing Avenue, as well as the vast urban area that radiates to the surrounding area. In a prosperous city, the expensive expenses of food, clothing, housing and transportation are not affordable by ordinary civilians.

Therefore, there is a concentration of businessmen and wealthy people. Common people live in areas far away from the city like Leo Avenue. But retired generals like Hughton are fully capable of living in urban areas without having to squeeze in civilian areas like Rio Avenue.

Allen didn’t think so much. He brought up his military suitcase and the wine presented by Horn, walked through the garden in front of the small building, and came to the gate: "Mr. Hughton, are you there? I am Allen."

His voice is not necessarily loud, but Rio Avenue is very quiet at the moment, so Allen can be sure that the people inside can hear his shout, if there are people in the small building. Sure enough, there was a mess of footsteps in the small building, followed by the sound of the door slamming into it, and then everything was calm. Allen levied the land and stood there. It sounded like someone was hiding in the room in a panic, but he couldn't figure out why Hugh was hiding from himself?

"Ellen?" An old voice sounded from behind.

Alan looked back, but saw Hughton, wearing a straw hat and holding scissors, came out of the garden like a gardener. Allen said unexpectedly: "Mr. Hughton, I thought you were in the building."

He pointed towards the small building and said, "I just heard something inside."

Hughton glanced at Xiaolou and said, "It's okay, maybe it's just a stupid dog I raised."

Alan thought for a while, if a dog knows how to close the door, it's definitely not stupid. Obviously, there was something Hughton didn't want him to know, so he didn't ask more. Speaking of Horn’s blue moonlight: "This is a gift."

Hughton's old eyes lit up immediately, he threw the scissors away, and rushed at a speed that was never commensurate with his age. Alan's eyes cleared, and the bottle in his hand had fallen into Hughton's hand. Hughton unplugged the wine cork and took a mouthful, shouting, "Blue moonlight! Is it really blue moonlight? Good fellow, where did you get such a baby?"

When Allen remembered, Horn had told him not to mention his name, so he touched his head and said, "I bought it in the family warehouse."

Hughton looked at him suspiciously: "When did Beskard even put the wine in the family warehouse for sale."

Fortunately, Hughton did not continue to ask, and pushed Allen into the small building. Hughton's home is not necessarily so luxurious, and even the decoration materials are not as luxurious as Allen's residence. However, the lighting is very good, and the decoration with warm colors makes the living room have a kind of home warmth.

Putting the blue moonlight into his wine cabinet carefully, Hughton looked like he was afraid that Allen would change his mind and take it back. He couldn't wait to hide the wine. Then his eyes fell on the Wu trunk in Allen's hand: "I know that wine can't be drunk for nothing, kid, do you want me to help you debug the Rubik's Cube sequence?"

"I originally wanted to wait until my strength met the requirements before using this set of weapons." Allen opened the Wu trunk and took out the Silent Guardian and the Dark Destruction.

Hughton glanced and nodded: "The second-grade equipment, those on the committee know how to fudge. Why, do you need them now?"

"I have to go to the surface."

He picked up the Dark Destruction casually, and while watching, Hughton asked, "Going to visit relatives?"

"No, go kill. Get back whatever belongs to me." Allen said calmly.

Hughton squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "You guys are honest, that's okay. Give me an hour to help you reduce the requirements for using these two things. It's not difficult. However, the effect is also discounted."

"I know."

Hughton put down his straight knife and ruined it, put away his smile and said, "Okay, let's talk about business. Then, you came to learn the Rubik's Cube sequence design with me. That bottle of blue moonlight, because you just The qualifications of joining Bethkode are absolutely impossible to obtain. Let me guess, that is Master Horn’s private collection?"

Allen was at a loss for words. It seems that Hughton is not so foolish. He can only say embarrassingly: "The patriarch told me not to mention him to you."

"He is too underestimated. Would I refuse you because of his relationship? After all, I personally agreed to you at the time, although I never thought you could really survive." Hughton was a bit uncomfortable. Said responsibly.

Allen's expression immediately became very exciting. It turned out that Hughton didn't take him seriously at the time, so he was just showing generous.
