In the dim environment, an LED light emits a bright beam, and where the light has been illuminated, there are rows of bookshelves, which look very old.

However, the air did not smell the musty smell of aging and rotting paper patterns that is often found in libraries.

Walking in the library is an old man who looks a little rickety, the whole figure reveals the sense of vicissitudes, and the years have left their own traces on this old man.

However, despite his old age, his steps are still vigorous. Without any mud and water, he passed silently in front of the rows of bookshelves without making a sound.

"No, there isn't one, it won't be here. The old man walked over to a row of old-looking bookshelves, which were made of solid wood, unlike the steel frame structure just now.

Even in this constant temperature and humidity environment, there is still a faint smell of mold.

The old man's hand swept over the books one by one, and at last stopped at a book bound with rope, and after pulling it out of it, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the dust from it.

"It's one o'clock in the morning, and I'm alone in a library where no one comes all year long, and the lights aren't even on, so maybe I should ask this guy what he wants to do. ”

Just as the old man was turning the first page, a voice suddenly came from behind him.

The old man hurriedly put the book in his inner pocket, turned his head, and shone it in the direction from which the voice came from with a flashlight, "Who is it?" ”

Where the beam shone was a guy in a denim suit, although not as old as the old man, it could be seen that he was also a man of some age.

With a sigh of relief, the old man put down his flashlight, "It's so late, what are you doing here pretending to be a ghost." ”

"Come on, it's obvious that I caught you in the form and want to bite me in turn? Okay, Roland, I can guess if you don't say it, you're here to find a record of being unable to awaken the soul oracle, but you have a very strong bloodline. ”

The old man snapped his fingers, and the lights above their heads lit up, and the sudden light did not stimulate the two people who had been in the dark for a long time, on the contrary, their eyes sparkled.

The old man who came first was Roland from the Field Support Department, he was wearing a standard black trench coat of the Field Support Department, and he was still a little chic under the backdrop of the clothes.

Seeing that Roland was silent, Jonathan continued, "If you really want to look up something, just ask the Prophet, whose database contains even twice as many materials as the National Library of America. And you choose to flip through the book yourself, there are only two possibilities, one is that the thing you are asking is very sensitive and afraid of being recorded by the prophet, and the other is that what you are looking for is simply top-secret information that is not even included in the prophet's database. ”

"Jonathan, did you follow me on purpose, or did you have the same purpose. Roland looked Jonathan in the eye, vaguely wary.

"You don't have to guard against me like a thief, I can guess your mind, are you wondering if Wang is possible... Apostle, right. ”

Roland's eyes flickered, and he looked at Jonathan for a long time before saying, "Don't tell me you don't doubt it, since we found this little guy, strange things have started to happen one after another. First, inexplicably, a student was accidentally killed in an internship mission, and then it was discovered that someone inside was very likely to leak the company's tasks outside, and several teams disappeared, and this little guy went out on a mission for the first time, and he actually encountered... Apostle. ”

"I know, there are too many doubts. Jonathan interrupted Roland, "But, don't you trust the chairman?" ”

Roland was silent for a long time, and then said, "There is no doubt that the chairman is the most powerful and mysterious warrior I know, and his orders can be said to have never gone wrong. ”

"Actually, it's not just you, I've thought about this countless times. Jonathan walked over to the bookcase as well, looking down to see what books they were.

"Wang Ling must be a person with some extremely strong bloodline, there is no doubt about this, but I don't know why he can't awaken, even our organization, which is completely composed of capable people, can't compare and answer, and even the prophet can't give a possible explanation, you know, it's almost the most omniscient guy on this earth. ”

Roland sighed, "When the chairman informed me that Wang Ling was going to enter the field support department, I have been observing this little guy, and I have to say that he has not exposed any strange and abnormal behavior. ”

"But his abilities are weird, aren't they?" Jonathan pulled out his phone, opened a video and handed it to Roland, "Take a look." ”

Roland took the phone, the video was very short, only a few dozen seconds, but after only watching it for more than ten seconds, Roland frowned tightly. The content of the video, which was recorded after Jonathan arrived in Yunnan, looks like it has been plowed by rocket launchers, and the entire hill has disappeared for several meters, and there is hardly half a tree in sight, and the unlucky ones are lying there.

"What are you trying to express?" Roland asked after handing the phone back to Jonathan.

"Do you think you can withstand this level of attack?"

Roland thought for a moment and shook his head, "It's difficult, judging from the situation of the police at the time, the apostle almost made a tropical cyclone by himself, although you and I are not low, but if you want to survive this level of attack, it is estimated that it is not very likely." ”

"I've communicated with Lin Ling, and you know that she is a personal defensive soul oracle, and she can hardly help much. She said that Wang Ling had once resisted the apostle's attack alone for ten full seconds. ”

Roland choked, then exclaimed, "This can't be!"

"yes, it can't be. Not to mention that he didn't awaken the soul oracle at all, even if he did, what a high-level existence he had to be to withstand this level of attack. ”

The two of them were speechless, Roland had originally wanted to find the answer, but now that the answer has not been found, Jonathan has brought even more shocking news.

The chairman of the board of directors ...... We don't know his oracle or rank either. Roland suddenly said this, and then looked at Jonathan intently.

"Uh...... Do you suspect that Wang Ling is actually the illegitimate son of the chairman? Your conjecture is very bold, but it is not impossible...

"What the hell, I don't have any of your weird ideas. Have you ever wondered. In fact, we don't know anything about the chairman, although I can almost recite his personal life, but it's the kind of feeling that I can't see through and can't touch it, as if shrouded in a thick fog, and Wang Ling also gave me this feeling. ”

"Under normal circumstances, I am afraid that the only one who can resist the apostles is the apostles. Jonathan put away his phone and pulled out a book from the bookcase and flipped through it. "But the Soul Apostle made a move on Wang Ling, which really makes too much sense. So, the book you just hid was about something. ”

Roland took out the book he had just put in from the inside pocket of his coat and handed it to Jonathan. Upon seeing the cover of the book, the latter was shocked.

"Apocalypse?"

"Yes, of all the decipherable accounts we have found, there are two other than the apostles, at the very top of the bloodline. One is called the Apocalypse and the other is called God, and I think you know that. ”

"I'm listening, you go on. ”

"Legend has it that the six apostles are the vanguard of the world for God, and the apocalypse is a general-like existence. And what he has is none other than the 107th Soul Oracle, Apocalypse. And we don't know what the apocalypse is other than the name. In different legends, he has different abilities, and it is not known which one is correct or neither. ”

"So, you doubt it?" Jonathan's eyes were full of shock, "If that's the case, what do you think we should do and kill him?"

"Come on," Roland shook his head and smiled wryly, "Jonathan, do you think I really don't know which side you're on?" Although it seems that when the chairman is not there, it is a few of us old guys who have the final say. But we all know in our hearts that the person he trusts the most is still you. ”

Speaking of this, Roland took back the copy of "Apocalypse" from Jonathan's hand, "Although I am old, I am not confused, what do you do to Wang Ling, this little guy, I still understand." If you really doubt him so much, how can you let your daughter get close to him in disguise. ”

"Yes, I can't control what that girl wants to do" Jonathan shook his head helplessly, "I treat her as a daughter, and she doesn't treat me as a father." ”

"You know what the situation is. By the way, speaking of your daughter, now that his brother's killer is dead, she should be much better. ”

"Alas, I want to do that too," Jonathan sighed, "I looked for her, and she said that with Jiang Zhishan's low-level bloodline, it was impossible to hurt her younger brother, and Jiang Zhishan must have been a puppet of the apostle at that time." So the real culprit is actually the Soul Apostle, and only by killing the Apostle can it be regarded as real revenge. ”

"Kill the apostle," Roland said softly after hearing this, a little distracted, "how can it be so easy, when the apostle is fully awake, he can easily destroy a city, how can we kill him." ”

"Franklin always had a plan, didn't he. ”

"Hopefully. Roland opened "Apocalypse" again, "I'm going to study this book carefully, you can go back first, don't worry, I won't do anything to this little guy Wang Ling." The Apostle has appeared, and if there is any problem within the Soul Hunter, it will only fall apart, and I also believe in Franklin's guy, he shouldn't be blind. And strictly speaking, now I am the top boss of that little guy. ”

Jonathan nodded, he knew Roland, this was a man of his word, a man who could be trusted.

"You don't have to come in the middle of the night to look for information just to guard against me, go back early and come back tomorrow during the day. After saying that, Jonathan stopped inking and turned to leave.

"Oh yes, I didn't mean to spy on you," Jonathan said, "I just couldn't sleep and drank, and I just came with you at the window when I saw you sneaking out of the door." ”
