Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 65 Joining forces
Clara, Baker District edge, end of Norne Street.
"Iron Order" security company.
This is the headquarters of the Shadow Order of the Soul Hunter Team.
Like the curtain of the night, the Order of Shadows also has a disguise to the outside, but the difference is that the Order of Shadows disguises itself as a security company that provides security.
But to be honest, it really fits the style of their violent threesome......
If you enter the interior of this security company, you will see that it is almost all muscular men.
Not all of these strong men are soul descendants, but they are actually ordinary people.
The main reason why they are here is because they worship the strong.
The strength of the Shadow Order trio is undoubtedly far beyond the scope of normal people, and in Clara, even if they are fellow soul descendants, there are not many soul descendants who can confront these three people head-on.
After seeing such a powerful force, these strong men naturally envied and admired the trio.
Coupled with the fact that most of these strong men were alone and had no worries, these people all decided to follow the trio of the Shadow Order.
Although the strong men learned from the mouths of the trio that they could not possess far more power than ordinary people, they still admired the trio, hoping to be taught by the trio.
As time passed, there were more and more such people, and the three of the Shadow Order finally followed the advice of an admirer and formed this security company.
Since then, this security company has become a camouflage for the Shadow Order to use externally, as well as an important source of income for the Shadow Order, and more importantly, to build a home for these followers.
Now, this group of muscular men are exercising their bodies in an open field within the company, or competing with each other, or working out alone through the exercise equipment, which is very lively.
And cross this field full of muscular men and enter another more normal room.
This is the living room of the Steel Order Security Company, which is specially used to entertain guests who come to hire security guards.
At this time, in this living room, there are seven people gathered inside, as if they are discussing something.
This is exactly the violent trio of Xia Zuo and the other four and the shadow order.
Of the seven, the other six did not speak, but all listened to Adelson in the trio.
"That's how it happened, the homeless man happened to bump into us after encountering the ghost, and although he was in a bit out of shape at the time, he still told us all about it, and that's all about the homeless man. Adelson finished telling the story of the homeless man and said slowly.
After Adelson finished speaking, the atmosphere began to quiet down, and Xia Zuo and the others couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
What is certain is that the terrifying monster that the tramp encounters must be a tooth and blood soul.
The woman who appears in the middle of the process is supposed to be Inisha who accidentally fell into the sewer. (Anyway, whatever you say is guided by the goddess of magic, it's really fake, right?) (From Xia Zuo's complaining and crying)
But the tooth and blood ghost described by the tramp seemed very strange.
What's the strangeness?
Strange to the black scales on this tooth blood soul.
As far as Xia Zuo knew, the characteristics of ordinary tooth and blood spirits were: similar to human form, but the whole body was pitch black, the eyes were blood-red, and they devoured human flesh and blood, and there were no scales attached to their bodies.
Could it be that this tooth and blood species has a special extraordinary ability to produce scales on its own body?
Shazo wasn't sure, but it was possible in Fred's eyes.
After all, Fred knew that Astrand, the captain of the Shadow Order, had the ability to scaleβa very strong ability to attack and defend at the same time.
If this tooth blood soul ghost also has similar abilities, then it will probably not be easy to deal with.
Although, as long as he remembers the fact that this tooth and blood seed was beaten and fled by Inisha in a panic, Xia Zuo inevitably feels that this tooth and blood seed seems to be quite easy to deal with......
But it's better not to be too careless.
Xia Zuo shook his head in his heart and reminded himself.
In case the ghost was only caught off guard by Inisa's "sudden attack" (I guess it would be okay to fall and hit it suddenly?), then we would have underestimated the strength of this ghost.
And after all, I'm not necessarily better than Inisa.
Xia Zuo couldn't help but cover his face.
Although Xia Zuo has two extraordinary abilities, by chance, all of these abilities are supportive, and none of them are attacking, which can be said to be very embarrassing.
And Inisa, on the other hand, may have a strong offensive ability like Jasmine. (After all, girls, they still have to have some powerful means of attack, in order to deal with all kinds of accidents...... οΌ
In addition, Xia Zuo's soul bloodline is only the lowest colorless level, and he doesn't have enough soul quality, and although Xia Zuo doesn't know Inisa's bloodline level, it must not be lower than Xia Zuo no matter how low it is, so on the whole, Xia Zuo's actual combat ability is really not necessarily stronger than Inisa, an elixir master.
In addition, I don't know if there is really only such a ghost in this sewer......
"Now that the cause of the matter has been said...... Now let's talk about what happened after you entered the sewers. Fred said with a smile as he looked at the three of the Shadow Order.
Fred already knew a little about the homeless man's experience, but he decided to listen to the trio's experience again so that he could confirm the situation further.
"Haha...... Of course, there is no problem with this. Astrand smiled heartily.
Although it may be a shame to talk about the three of them in the sewers, Astron didn't really care about it.
After all, the most important thing is to solve the problem.
As long as we can sum up experience and learn lessons from it, what's the problem of losing face?
"Then big brother, you calm down first......" Adelson shook his head helplessly, Astron's voice was too loud, once he spoke and laughed, the whole living room was his voice, very noisy, and he couldn't communicate normally.
Astron is clearly not fit to be the narrator of this story.
β...... Uh-haha. Apparently aware that his voice was too loud, Astron scratched his head with a dry smile, then fell silent, and looked at Adelson quietly, waiting for Adelson to continue his story.
"Then I'll move on. Adelson nodded to Astrang.
"It's already evening after we learned what happened from the homeless man named Bappes. β
"We all felt that the story told by the homeless man was true, that he had encountered a strange ghost with scales. β
"So, after we had temporarily housed the homeless man, we decided to go to the sewers to find out. β
"We quickly had our weapons and equipment ready. β
"At about seven o'clock in the evening, we set off from the security company and made it to the sewers. β
"We should have adjusted a little bit at this point. β
"But with Big Brother coming in first, and Baird following him, I had no choice but to rush into the sewers......" Edson said, glancing at Astrand.
"Haha......" Astron scratched his head embarrassedly and couldn't help but laugh twice, not explaining his impulse.
"As soon as we entered the sewers, we found that there were a few traces of soul energy in the sewers, as the homeless man said, and some traces of blood - this must have been left by the dead who was mutilated by the ghost, and the body of the deceased was long gone, and if we had come a little later, even these traces would have dissipated. Adelson let Astron go and continued.
"At the time, we were glad we believed what the homeless man said, otherwise we don't know how long we would have allowed this ghost to get away with it. β
"We continued deeper into the sewers with the idea of getting rid of the ghost, and soon found more traces of the ghost...... But I gradually felt a little uneasy in my heart. β
"I had a sense of foreboding. β
"Because we are finding more and more traces of these ghosts...... These marks don't look like they can be left behind by a ghost!"
"There may be more than one tooth and blood ghost in this sewer!"
Hearing this, Xia Zuo and the others' expressions couldn't help but become serious.
If there is only one strange ghost, it is easy to deal with, but if it is a group of ghosts, then you have to be cautious.
And if it's a group of ghosts, then it's possible that there will be a leader like the previous Blood Demon - this is a powerful existence that requires multiple elite soul hunters to deal with!
This threat must be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise the entire inhabitants of Nourn Street 3 will undoubtedly be dancing on the tip of a knife, which is extremely dangerous.
"But if it's just two or three ghosts, it's still okay for us to deal with, even if we accidentally encounter more ghosts, we are confident that we will get out of the way, and we are really unwilling not to find out what happened, so we decided to continue to go deeper. β
"As I went deeper, I still didn't find a ghost, and just as I was confused, at a bend in the bend, Baird keenly heard a strange movement. Adson's expression suddenly became strange.
Xia Zuo couldn't help but look at Baird, the youngest boy in the trio, but he didn't expect him to seem to be not like to talk, but he was so good at hearing.
"Baird told us that there should be a hidden space near that bend. β
"We couldn't help but be quiet. β
"With Baird's help, we were able to find the entrance to the space, but we did find a gap through which we could see the general situation inside the space. β
"We've found ghosts. β
"A bunch of ghosts. β
"There are also special ghosts with more powerful breaths. β
"I'm afraid that's not the scale of the ghosts we can deal with. β
"And at this moment, because I didn't take a good look at the eldest brother, the eldest brother smashed his fist against the wall in a moment of excitement, trying to deal with these ghosts......" Adelson said and couldn't help but hold his forehead.
Astron couldn't help but laugh dryly.
"Those ghosts undoubtedly heard the movement of the eldest brother, but they did not get out for a while, so I hurriedly pulled the eldest brother and Baird and ran back, and by luck, we were lucky enough to avoid the ghosts, and finally escaped from the sewers in embarrassment and met you. β
"That's probably all we had to do with this sewer survey. Adelson breathed a sigh of relief, coughed dryly, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip of tea.
"Tsk...... This ghost incident is not ordinary. The corners of Fred's mouth lifted slightly, "After calming down for a while, I didn't expect these ghosts to seem to be making a big move again." β
"It seems that this matter is not something that the three of us can easily solve, we have to go back and talk to the captain......" Fred looked at Xia Zuo on the side, he didn't expect that Xia Zuo's commission to be chosen at will would finally involve a matter of this level.
"I must let the captain know, okay......" Xia Zuo nodded hurriedly, this matter is so big, a group of ghosts, this is much more serious than before, I even suspect that we can't solve this matter, if there are only three of us, how can it be solved?
"You're going back and tell Anos?" Edson asked after a pause.
"Yes. Fred replied with a smile.
"So that's the case...... Both of our soul hunting teams know about this matter, and this matter is difficult to solve by a soul hunting team, so ......"
"Why don't we join forces?" asked Adelson earnestly.
If two Soul Hunter squads join forces, you can reduce a lot of risk.
If there is only one side, it can lose a lot.
Hearing this, Fred couldn't help but be stunned, and finally nodded.
With the power of the Night Veil, it is really risky to deal with a group of special ghosts and ghosts that may be comparable to the blood demon species, and it would be better if they could join forces.
Presumably, the calm and rational captain would have thought the same thing.
"That's good, there are a lot of people and it's lively, I can't ask for it. Fred couldn't help but smile.
