At nine o'clock in the morning, I told Thorne to visit Lawrence. The proximity between the Association and the Killer Group is very close, and you can feel the serenity and elegance that is unique to the colonial overlords of Europe, and for a moment it feels like a world away.

A faint trace of visible mist wrapped around the green leaves hanging with dew, and all kinds of wild animals could be seen from time to time in large lawns and forests, and when they saw me walking by, they only raised their heads alertly, and did not panic to flee. These ancient manors are like independent old antiques, with the vicissitudes of time and loneliness, quietly standing on this land.

As we got closer to the Laureus Group, the style of painting that had been quiet for years began to change suddenly. Large areas of forest have been turned into stumps and replaced by large lawns, which minimise occlusion and allow for quick observation of targets approaching the group's headquarters.

On the towering wall hung an English sign that said 'There is a vicious dog inside, enter carefully', and I explained my identity to the gatekeeper, who called to call for a taxi after confirming his identity, and in less than five minutes, a light battery car drove by. I couldn't help but be happy when I saw the person driving, it was actually the young man who was going to scare me with a dog last time.

"Mr. Ye Tian, welcome back. This time, the young driver did not dare to offend me again, and his words were full of trepidation and courtesy. I nodded and asked him to take me straight to Lawrence's office.

Pushing open the door and walking in, Lawrence was pouring a pot of tea into the cup, and when he saw me come in, he first gave me a warm hug, and then took my hand and sat on the sofa and pointed to the tea in the cup and said with a smile: "Are you thirsty? Come, taste this tea, this is the most authentic jasmine tea in your Huaxia country, the aroma is fragrant, it is really a good thing." ”

I sneered and pursed my lips: "Mr. Lawrence, since this thing is so good, you keep it for yourself, and I still drink the big red robe from before." ”

The smile on Lawrence's face instantly froze, and the old little eyes blinked a few times, and he changed the topic directly.

"There's a mission back this time, and you haven't taken on a mission for a long time. I leave this task to you, and the salary is three million euros after deducting personal income tax. ”

This old guy is not as shameless as my master, at least he knows embarrassment and shame after fooling people, and his skills in changing the subject are not very good, he belongs to the kind of person who is about to become bad but not yet bad.

I waved my hand and asked Lawrence, "Do you know about the Holy See, aren't you going to send someone?"

Seeing that I was no longer entangled in the matter of tea, Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief, and when I saw his expression, I secretly laughed in my heart. It's just a broken tea leaf, as for being so nervous? Didn't Lao Tzu just drink some good tea back then, and as for so many years, he still put Lao Tzu like a thief?

"After all, the Holy See represents light and justice, and with an identity like a group, even if you go, you may encounter embarrassment. When Lawrence said this, he suddenly asked suspiciously, "Why are you asking this?"

I smiled, "Yelena of the Vatican, you know, right?"

Lawrence nodded: "Of course I know, it is said that the girl is the most gifted clergy in the Holy See so far." ”

I patted my chest proudly: "My wife." ”

Lawrence's jaw almost fell to the ground.

"Alright, alright, just come over and ask you what your plans are. "That's when Thorne's phone call came in, reminding me that I had half an hour to go. I picked up the jasmine tea on the table and drank it in one go, spitting out two tea stems.

"If someone hires a killer from within the group to work against Elena, you'll have to tell me. It doesn't matter if the people in the Holy See are gone, but my wife can't move anyone. Mr. Thorne accedes to Vilas's request to help the Holy See fight against a possible cult. ”

Lawrence nodded: "Although the group is in the underground order, it has never dealt with those evil churches. Lawrence saw that I actually drank such a large cup of tea in one go, and got cheap and obediently came over and asked, "It's still delicious this kind of tea, right?"

"Phew!" I opened the door and turned to Lawrence and took a sip, "Don't think I don't know the tea ceremony, the jasmine tea you use is still the lowest kind, and there are two tea stems in one sip." I walked out and shouted at Lawrence's office, "Mr. Lawrence, do you see if your precious red robe is missing?"

Then I heard the sound of desks, chairs and benches collapsing in his office, and when I heard this sound, I couldn't help but shake my head and say to myself, "What an idiot, I don't even know where you put that thing." ”

After molerating Lawrence, I returned to the Guild headquarters to assemble. To my surprise, Thorne personally led the team of ten people, all of whom were dressed in casual attire. There was even a middle-aged man wearing a crisp dark checkered suit with a bow tied on his white shirt. It's as if this time I'm not going to fight, I'm going to a banquet.

The five Dark Abilities all had strong or strong dark energy fluctuations, and I knew that they were deliberately hiding their aura. These five people have a lot of respect for me, because I have a dark power that is so powerful that they can never surpass it, and because I can also hide this dark power cleanly.

Thorne saw that everyone was together, nodded and announced departure.

Flying from England to Italy by private jet required crossing the Channel, and after takeoff, the men unwrapped themselves in their seats, revealing a variety of weapons.

Thorne came to my seat with a G55 sniper rifle and smiled at the way I pouted, "It's a little less powerful, but its bullets are huge." With that, Thorne spread out his palm, revealing a golden bullet.

"Made of gold?" I took the bullet and bit it in my mouth, so angry that Thorne almost suffered a cerebral hemorrhage on the spot.

"This is a special blessing by inscriptions and scriptures, you... You're biting with your mouth!" I noticed the slender sniper rifle bullet when Thorne said that. The entire body of the projectile was a golden yellow, and it was full of unintelligible scriptures, and some kind of powder seemed to have been added to the hollowed out. The most peculiar thing is the warhead position, which is occupied by three life-carved crosses.

"This is specifically for dealing with evil spirits. Thorne handed me a pistol again: "This one is also a special bullet, using them to hit ordinary people has no good effect, the sniper bullet and pistol bullet bullet are not filled with *, but a holy relic specially designed to deal with evil spirits." ”

Seeing me looking at him suspiciously, Thorne lowered his head and whispered to me: "Five of these people I lead have dark powers, and the rest of them all have holy bodies, not only can sense evil spirits, but also can use holy power to fight them, however, they are not very good at thermal weapons. And those who are good at thermal weapons can't sense evil spirits. Only you. Thorne patted me on the shoulder: "Not only is he good at thermal weapons, but he also has dark super powers, and he can feel evil spirits." ”

I scratched my head, and I couldn't tell if the old guy was complimenting me or hurting me.

As the plane began to land, the men put away their unique weapons. What surprised me was that a person next to me actually brought a full bag of sanitary napkins, and judging from the blood stains on it, it was obvious that it was used by the woman's aunt.

"This, well, is called 'riding cloth' in the ancient Taoism of the East. The middle-aged man saw my gaze and proudly explained to me, "This thing can cause great damage to evil spirits. I hadn't heard of this before, so I quickly pretended to look at him with adoration and gave him a thumbs up with the smell of fish in my pocket.

After getting off the plane, the white-haired Thorne walked down first. Very reservedly, we shook hands with the people who came to pick us up, and then we boarded a Mercedes luxury bus and headed directly to the Vatican.

"Mr. Thorne, the consortium's annual report has been submitted, thank you for your contribution to JPMorgan Chase last year, Mr. Morgan is going to invite you to the New Year's Eve dinner scheduled for Christmas, I wonder if you have time to attend?" The middle-aged man who came to pick up the plane sat next to Thorne very respectfully and asked.

"If I have the time, I will consider participating. Thorne obviously didn't want to attend this kind of dinner party that sounded very boring, the association's industries were all over the world, and Thorne, the old guy, didn't care about the money and the local tyrants of the consortium. Even for JPMorgan Chase, the world's top conglomerate, Thorne only replied out of politeness.

The middle-aged man beside him nodded and said, "Okay, Mr. Thorne, Mr. Morgan is now in the Americas, let me express my gratitude to you on behalf of the consortium, and regret that I can't come to pick you up in person this time." ”

Thorne nodded and replied politely, "Say hello to the Morgan family on my behalf." ”

I sat at the back, a little unable to understand the red tape of European gentlemen. Even if these people are expressing their thoughts, they all reveal the indifference and arrogance of rejecting people, and they are far from the real intimacy and unscrupulousness between friends like Huaxia.

The car came out of the private airport and traveled along the narrow roads of Italy, and half an hour later, our car entered the Vatican along a road that could only be passed by one car.

Following a road that had been under martial law, the car drove directly to the front of a church at the back of the square, guided by the police.

"Thank you, Mr. Thorne, for coming. After Thorne got out of the car, an old man immediately came over to shake Thorne's hand and introduced Thorne: "This is Cardinal Archbishop Brian, and after His Excellency the Pope fell ill, the Holy See was temporarily administered by Archbishop Brian. ”
