The Coin That Rules the Dead World - Episode 8

The hunting squad is wiped out and all trade channels at C-rank Base Branch B-09 were cut after Eerie Mart opened branches, collapsing the trade zone. Elders warn that if the trade system fails, even their A-rank base can't hold. Admitting they cannot beat him, they identify 'that man'—the S-rank base—as the only one who might stop him. They reluctantly agree to let the S-rank step in, though it will take the situation out of their control. They vow to hunt anyone who harms A-rank interests, leaving the base's fate unsettled as the S-rank's intervention looms.
