Chapter 120: A sense of foreboding

Charlotte and Judson exchanged a few habitual words, Nick and Moon watched the excitement, and Elle and Lolita also showed great interest. Still Zenas couldn't stand it anymore, asked Judson, and broke the confrontation between the two.

"How? Did you find out who they were?"

Judson gave Charlotte a quick reply, then replied as he looked at the corpse, "I found the nameplate of the Lighthouse Intelligence Division from them, but trust me, I was there for a long time before I did it with you." I bet on my reputation that this nameplate is a fake. ”

"With the reputation of the Assassin?" Charlotte shot back.

Judson rolled his eyes, and was about to reply, but was interrupted again by Zenas.

"Who do you think they are? You know, Judson, we have to know who we're up against. ”

This time Judson didn't dare to judge easily, he carefully considered, and first said a few of his own conjectures.

"There are quite a few organizations in San Lorenzo that can have such a level of ruthlessness and a ruthless approach. Even if you don't count the dead soldiers raised by the great nobles, Dark Wind, Thorn Bird, and Dark Brotherhood...... In short, each of these organizations has its own characteristics, but all of them can be done to a just degree. ”

He reported six or seven names in a row, but it was the Dark Brotherhood that caught Charlotte's attention.

"Can't you guess where they came from?" Moon analyzed, dragging his chin as he was Zenas's brain.

Judson rummaged through each of the Assassins, trying to figure out their identities, but it was really hard. With the exception of a few powerful men who have become famous, the Assassins are largely obscure characters, who walk in the dark and even have countless names and code names. Even an elite assassin like Judson, who had been involved in the Lighthouse Intelligence Service, had a feeling of being at a loss for a while.

However, he was Zenas's most trusted intelligence officer, and when he turned to the corpse of the assassin who controlled Thunderrage, he was able to identify them from the details in the palm of his hand.

"I finally know where these damn guys are coming from!It's the Dark Brotherhood!" Judson made his own judgment, "Look, there's a dent in the palm of this guy's hand, isn't it? This is the mark of the iron wire of the unique weapon developed by the Dark Brotherhood, this guy is the elite of the Dark Brotherhood!"

"In other words, this elite got the wrong target and fired it at the Earl with 'Thunder Fury'?" Moon pressed his eyebrows and stated with an incredulous expression.

Although Judson also felt incredible, he could only shrug his shoulders helplessly in the face of the iron-clad facts, "Trust me, this guy must be the elite of the Dark Brotherhood." As for why he made such a low-level mistake...... Maybe he drugged before he acted?"

Poof!

Even Vivien was made to laugh at Judson's irresponsible attitude.

- Dark Brotherhood?

Charlotte had a flash of inspiration, and finally understood why she cared so much about the organization. It seems that this organization was unclear with the Soul Seat during the assassination of the Water Metropolis, and later Charlotte learned that the Dark Brotherhood was actually a subordinate organization of the Soul Seat to collect intelligence and obtain resources, so it is really possible that the Dark Brotherhood's target is herself. After all, a while ago, I offended the big man of the Soul Seat, that Gloria.

No, that's not right! Charlotte quickly disproved the idea. Because since that fight in the city of Lallaier, Charlotte has once again used Eleni's deception to change her appearance, and it is impossible for this group of assassins to guess who Charlotte is unless there is Edwin, the Lord of the Stars, standing behind them.

"I've finally figured out who these haunting creatures are. Zenas breathed a sigh of relief, "Do you think they're the same gang as the people who assassinated us a few times before?"

"Judging by the means of assassination, it should be. Judson nodded.

"Is the means of assassination......" Moon, who held his chin, seemed to have something to say.

Charlotte immediately realized something and asked, "You mean...... This isn't the first assassination?"

"Of course. It was Nick who answered him, and the bearded man showed a natural expression, "We are the most wanted criminals on the blacklist inside the lighthouse, and that Shawshank guy doesn't dare to arrest us in a big way after all, so this kind of despicable means are endless." ”

"These Assassins used to be under the sign of the Lighthouse Intelligence Service. "But there are always some loyal people in the Lighthouse Intelligence Service, and Moon doesn't think Shawshank would be stupid enough to directly assign the Intelligence Service to assassinate us." They must have invited a peripheral organization, and it seems that it was the Dark Brotherhood. ”

"But the strange thing is ......," the bald gentleman Moon curled his lips with a sarcastic look, "these Assassins, although professional, seem to be ill-prepared every time, and this time it is a big joke. Perhaps, as Judson said, their head likes to take drugs. ”

But it seems, Moon didn't believe it at all. As Zenas's brain, he is a conspiracy theorist himself.

- The Dark Brotherhood and the Seat of Souls......

Charlotte held her chin up, always feeling that this might have something to do with Gloria's secretly planned operation. But the information was insufficient, and Charlotte could not be sure of the connection, and could not deduce the connection at all.

As Moon mocked, the Dark Brotherhood would not rush to deliver food like a street thug unless they were all stupid. This time, he couldn't even distinguish the target person, so he let the 'Thunder Fury' shoot at him. What kind of assassin is this, even if it is a three-year-old child, the playing house is more reliable than them.

But why would they do such stupid and unprofitable stupid things?

But after all, things involve the Soul Seat, and considering Sylvia and Claire, Charlotte can't tell Zenas and the others about the relationship between the Dark Brotherhood and the Soul Seat after all.

Furthermore, although the Dark Brotherhood is a subordinate organization of the Constellation, it actually has a very large amount of autonomy in itself, in other words, unless the fundamental interests of the Constellation of Souls are involved, there is no need to report to the Constellation of Souls what kind of tasks the organization will take on.

- Maybe it's just an internal operation of the Dark Brotherhood itself?

With this thought, and seeing that Zenas and Moon had long been suspicious and wary of this, Charlotte just hid her doubts in her heart and didn't say anything more.

Charlotte asks Zenas what he plans to do next, and the two fall silent again when they learn that the man has still decided to head north to the border in search of his supporters.

"Are you still going to shoot at me?"

It was Zenas who interrupted the embarrassing silence. Nick and Judson were immediately alert, but were stopped by Zenas waving his hand. Although this former down-and-out knight has fallen into such a situation, he has more calm than at the beginning.

Charlotte was silent for a moment and shook her head, "Forget it." As you said, there is a saying in the north that you don't shoot at friends who drink under the same roof. But Zenas, if you do become a mortal enemy on the battlefield in the future, I will not show you mercy. ”

Zenas just laughed and didn't refute.

In fact, both Charlotte and Zenas knew that if Zenas's plan really succeeded, he would eventually become Lawrence's mortal enemy. Until then, though, the chaos he caused might have worked in Lawrence's favor.

"But since we're still friends, let's talk about how to get out of this city. Judson breathed a sigh of relief and returned that annoying smile.

Charlotte wasn't annoying this time.

In the early hours of the same day, the two parties who had escaped from the town parted ways in the highlands. Charlotte quietly looked at Zenas in the distance, with a thoughtful expression.

"Where are we going next?" asked Lolita.

"Go to the northern border of the lighthouse. Charlotte replied, "Just by the way." I always felt that Zenas was the key figure in Gloria's plan for that woman. ”

May his instincts be wrong.

Because Zenas is also a man of the hour, and if the matter involves him, it means that this time the turmoil will inevitably be not small.

Soon, Charlotte's sense of foreboding came true.
