Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 74 The Soul Descent Council
The headquarters of the Council refers to the Soul Descent Council, which is located in the "Mystic Sea", the largest gathering of Soul Descent in the world.
Its specific location is the huge city "Ophelia", which is located in the sky above the mysterious sea.
The Soul Descent Council is the official organization of the Soul Descendants, which governs many Soul Descendants, and the Soul Descendants elect excellent Soul Hunter Masters to serve as councilors or speakers.
There are a total of forty-two seats in the Soul Descent Council, six of which are Speakers, with the most prestigious Speaker serving as the Chief Speaker, or Chieftain for short, who leads the entire Council.
The Soul Hunter Squads scattered all over the world belong to the Soul Hunter Council, and usually perform their duties and perform tasks for the Soul Descendant Council, and at the same time, the Soul Hunter Council will also fight for the benefits of these soul hunting teams and provide them with rewards.
If necessary, the Soul Hunter can contact the Council Headquarters through its branches hidden around the world, report the information to the Headquarters, or request assistance.
"I see. Anos nodded lightly at Alice's mechanical creation, "Thank you for your concern." ”
"Also, thank you very much, Miss Alice, for your help this time. ”
Arnos reached out and removed his black top hat and bowed to Alice's mechanical creation as a farewell before preparing to leave.
"Goodbye, Alice. Fred smiled as well and said goodbye to Alice, "I'll visit you next time I have the chance." ”
"You better pray that you'll come back in good condition. Alice's mechanical creation glanced coldly at Fred and replied angrily.
"There's nothing to pray for here. Fred smiled, "I think I've always had good luck. ”
"That's good, goodbye, don't send it. Alice said a little indifferently.
"Haha, okay, then I won't continue to bother you. Fred saw that Alice had given the eviction order, and finally had to laugh and prepare to leave.
The others didn't seem to know Alice well, and they all simply said goodbye to Alice without saying much.
"Thank you for this time, goodbye. Seeing that everyone was saying goodbye to Alice, Xia Zuo scratched his head slightly embarrassed, and also said goodbye to Alice.
Although we learned from Alice this time that the next action might encounter the danger of the subspecies black dragon, at least we learned about it here in advance, and we had time to prepare first.
You can also apply for assistance from the Legendary Soul Descent Council, as Alice said.
With some preparation and the assistance of the Council, maybe our Night Veil will be able to deal with the subspecies Black Dragon this time?
Then we'll be dragon slayers.
Legendary dragon slayer.
I feel a little excited when I think about it this way.
In that case, maybe I can get a nickname for the soul descendant like everyone else.
Just like Jasmine's nickname "Silver Light of the Night", I may be able to have a similar nickname then, such as ...... "Black Dragon's Stalker" (after all, the ability is soul tracking)?
Xia Zuo couldn't help but support his forehead.
Then "Black Dragon's Hunter", the name is inspired by the soul trap ability, well, it feels good.
Xia Zuo couldn't help but feel a little excited for a while.
After all, Xia Zuo didn't know enough about the subspecies black dragon, so even in this situation, he could still think about it.
Just as Xia Zuo was thinking about it, Alice's mechanical creation stared at Xia Zuo, and the pronunciation part of the mechanical creation made a subtle running sound, as if he wanted to stop talking, but finally nodded lightly at Xia Zuo in response.
Forget it.
Alice thought.
Seeing Alice's response, Xia Zuo smiled and walked to the people in the dark curtain, walked to the door with everyone, and left Alice's residence.
After the Night Curtain left, the mechanical door operated on its own and slowly closed the door.
Staring at the doorway that was about to close, the backs of Xia Zuo and the others, Alice's mechanical creation stood in place, without moving.
The "marionette" of the mechanical creation seems to have lost the manipulator behind it.
... ...
The basement of Alice's house.
At this time, Alice stood there, her delicate body leaned back slightly, her long black hair swayed gently because of the backing of her body, Alice leaned on the workbench, the purple light under her eyes surged, and her thoughts were myriad.
"Sure enough, forget it. Alice muttered to herself, "Maybe I'm mistaken." ”
"It's not that the frequency of spiritual power similar to dragons is really related to dragons, maybe it's just some kind of coincidence. ”
Looking at his innocent appearance, he was inexplicably reluctant to break his illusions. ”
"Just let the facts tell him. ”
"For now, let him spend the rest of his time in peace. ”
Alice raised her head slightly, stared at the kerosene lamp on the ceiling, sighed, and smiled helplessly.
... ...
On the streets of Art.
Xia Zuo followed the crowd in the direction of Locke Street, occasionally looking back at Art Street with a little thought.
"Captain, do we really need to ask for assistance like the council headquarters?" Everyone was silent all the way, Xia Zuo thought about it, and finally couldn't help but ask.
"Hmm. Arnos bowed slightly, "I'll contact the council headquarters as soon as I get ready." ”
"After all, things are more important. ”
"Don't think too much about it. Seeing this, Fred couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and teased Xia Zuo, "At that time, we may still be an important main force, after all, we are more familiar with Clara's place, but the council headquarters is not." ”
"Haha, I'm just curious. Xia Zuo scratched his head embarrassedly, he was indeed a little worried that he would have to watch the show from the sidelines after the council headquarters sent aid workers.
Although it is actually good to watch the play on the sidelines, it can greatly reduce the possibility of casualties, after all, it may be a subspecies of black dragon that is completely comparable to a real soul hunter master, and only a guy like Xia Zuo, a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, will find watching the play too boring.
"Let's go, let's go back and talk slowly. Seeing Fred teasing Xia Zuo, Arnos couldn't help but glance at Fred, saying that Fred should stop in moderation.
"Haha, good. Fred smiled and nodded slightly.
So the crowd went on and left the street of Art.
... ...
After a long time.
The group finally returned to the detective agency on Rock Street.
After arranging the follow-up tasks and writing the report letters, Anos quickly left Locke Street and headed for the Soul Descent Council branch where he could contact the council headquarters.
... ...
Clara, Port Baigull.
At this time, Hakugull Port is bustling with travelers from all over the world, curious sailors, sailors and crew members who carry cargo, and messengers who come from overseas or are about to go to sea with letters.
Hagull Harbor is one of the great ports of the neutral country of Norris, and it is undoubtedly a good place to connect with the outside world.
The Soul Descent Council's branch in Clara is hidden here.
The council's branch in Clara does not have many personnel, only a small team of people, and most of them are civilians, lacking combat capabilities, mainly responsible for recording information about the local soul descendants and contacting the council headquarters externally.
Soulborns affiliated with the Council can contact the Council Headquarters in the Mystic Sea with the help of the Branch's personnel, and then request assistance or report information to the Council Headquarters.
Clara's branch in Port Whitegull is disguised as an ordinary street bar called the "Voyager" bar, but the business is very cold, far less than Hunter's "Night Watch" bar.
After all, it is actually a branch of external contact, not a real bar, and it is normal to do bad business, just so that the branch can also avoid being targeted by evil people or ghosts.
At this time, there was silence in Clara's branch, only one or two guests were drinking at the table, and a staff member stood alone at the bar counter, silently bowing his head and wiping his glass.
The staff member was actually the owner of the bar, named Philip Stoker.
His true identity is the head of the Clara Branch, a sapphire bloodline soul descendant, and a quasi-soul hunter.
Philip hummed a little song and soaked himself in the delicate glasses as he lowered his head and scrubbed his delicate glass.
Although Philip is the head of the Clara Branch, this position is not very hard, and he only needs to regularly monitor and record the information of the local Soul Hunting Team, and pass it back to the council headquarters.
The Clara branch doesn't have the authority to directly lead the local Soul Hunters, so there's no need for Philip to command the local Soul Spawns, so Philip's life is undoubtedly very comfortable: it's a very easy job.
But that doesn't mean it's not important, and Philip knows it very well, but under normal circumstances, Philip's job is very pleasant, and Philip is very satisfied with it.
Just as Philip was immersed in his daily leisure.
"Squeak. The door to the bar was suddenly pushed open, causing Philip to look down and wipe his glass, and Philip gently put the glass back in place, then looked up in the direction of the bar door.
A black-haired brown-eyed man dressed in black and wearing a top hat walked in through the door, and the man walked to the bar counter, slowly removed his top hat, and smiled politely at Philip.
"Long time no see, Philip. The man in black greeted.
Philip couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled lightly: "It's been a long time, Anos." ”
"After all, life is quite busy. Anos smiled apologetically, then placed his top hat in the corner of the counter and sat down.
"Haha, I also understand this, after all, I am an active duty officer, not as easy as me, a semi-retired person. Philip smiled and took out a clean wine glass from the counter and gently pushed it in front of Anos.
"Would you like to have a drink?" asked Philip, taking a bottle of beer from the shelf, and asked enthusiastically.
"Nope. Arnos shook his head slightly, "I don't like to drink, it affects my judgment. ”
"I'm not here to rest, but to have something important to do. ”
"I know. Philip couldn't help but smile regretfully, then poured the beer from the bottle into the glass, took a sip, glanced at the few ordinary guests scattered in the corner, and asked in a slightly lower voice, "What's the matter?"
"Regarding a subspecies of black dragon, you can first take a look at the report I wrote. Anos said softly.
Philip couldn't help but be startled, his smile gradually faded, and then he raised his eyebrows and began to become serious.
Philip took the letter from Anos, an unsealed letter.
Philip opened the letter and carefully read the report in the letter.
A moment later.
Philip slowly reloaded the report.
"I see. "This letter will be sent to the council headquarters by expedited means." ”
"As for what decisions will be made at the headquarters in the Mystic Sea, it's not something I can influence, no problem? ”
"It's okay, just send it. Anos bowed slightly, "Then I'll trouble you." ”
"You're welcome. Philip couldn't help but smile slightly, "Then it's up to me next." ”
Philip returned to the break room, sealed Anos' letter in the lounge, then called out a waiter at the bar, handed over the work of the bar to him temporarily, politely said goodbye to Anos, and left the counter of the bar.
"Let's hope it goes well. Anos muttered as he stared in the direction Philip had left.
