Chapter 990: Memento?
In the recent past, what happened within the demon hunter organization could be described as crazily chaotic. For a well-organized combat group, the ma.s.s change in temperament of the highest echelon was not enough to cause large-scale chaos. But if all the elite combat groups in the upper echelons began to lose control, it proved to be a disaster. What was worse, they controlled the vital lifeline of the demon hunters, and that was enough to drag everyone into the whirlpool of chaos. White Flame had experienced all of it, but she still found it difficult to explain the incident to Hao Ren. There was jargon to explain and too many organizational secrets to consider. Besides, she had not been able to figure out many things herself. Therefore, she could only vaguely describe the incident.
As White Flame said, the anomaly occurred after Ha.s.se returned from the Ancattero territory to the demon hunters’ headquarters. The supreme commanders usually acted in the beginning and treated the information that Ha.s.se brought back seriously. However, in just a matter of a few days, the demon hunters in the upper echelons, who were called the Thirteen Sages experienced a change in temperament, one after the other. Then Ha.s.se, who was a high-level cadre of the organization, was arrested without warning. Soon after, an insane clean-up operation began internally. Their initial goal seemed to be the demon hunters like Ha.s.se who had doubts about their killing instinct, but soon, the attack expanded to a point where it became illogical. It finally evolved into a melee between the Council of Elders and the lower-rung demon hunters.
