Chapter 76: Night Demon Crystal + Missing
(PS. Races other than demons refer to themselves as 'humans', and animal people refer to ancient races that do not use magic.) οΌ
"Okay, OK!"
After the old man finished speaking, he walked into the shadows behind the bookshelf with a grim smile on his face and left the command room.
"Hey, it's really annoying......" After the commander saw Lao Ai leaving, his face immediately sank, and dark clouds gathered on his face.
He turned back to his desk and pressed the button on the table. Immediately followed by a clattering sound of gear steam, metal brackets rose up against the rotating gears.
There are photographs hanging on the stand, as well as some cropped newspapers.
He put on his eyes and followed a newspaper photograph of a little girl with blonde hair and red eyes from the Nightless Clan, dressed in tattered dress, imprisoned in a dungeon. Thick silver-plated chains hung the girl from death. The girl's pupils were filled with sleepiness, tiredness. Standing on the side was a burly two-meter-tall tea-haired man from the Red Devil Clan, who seemed to have a title that was definitely not low. The man was also holding a pink leather whip with silver thread that had been coiled five times.
The damage to the dress was obvious to be whipped with a whip at a glance, and along the broken place, you could see bright red scars on the snow-white skin, and even blood was bleeding in some places.
This is definitely a situation that can only occur if there is no 'eating' for a long time, otherwise, the normal Nightless Clan will definitely not bleed, and of course, at least it will not make people pose and photograph themselves bleeding.
After all, the Nightless Clan has a rebellious nature in their bones. (And if you look closely, you can see that the girl's inner thighs are filled with clear liquid.) οΌ
The headline in the newspaper translates to 'Count Teresa, fearless of danger, punishing demons.' β
"Made...... This group of Red Devils !!." The commander gritted his teeth angrily, the pen in his hand trembling with anger, and the tip of the pen left a zigzag curve on the paper underneath.
Next to the paper, there is a 'missing file', and on the top of the report, a little girl is drawn exactly like the one in the newspaper - "Regeve Regina, female, 43 years old, disappeared 10 years ago." β
The commander's face was even more angry, "Regina is the daughter of General Rune's friend, she hasn't been found for so many years, and she turns out to be in the hands of this kind of garbage!" β
In addition to this one, the rest of the photographs hanging on the punk machine are probably the same, some of them being chained to necklaces, some of them being tortured...... There are men and women, and they are all young.
"Commander, we'll be able to save them." The secretary persuaded from the side.
"How can I save it? Now that we may have a war at any time, we can't mobilize our forces, plus the Red Cloud Empire's annoying barrier!"
"Ouch...... the secretary sighed and handed a document to the commander, "This is Dr. Kent's research report, could you please take a look at it?"
"Okay, huh...... It's better for you to read it. I'll finish writing the letter of entrustment before I read it." The commander swept the paper with blood magic in displeasure, and a line of anger that had just been drawn by himself was cleared.
"Okay." The secretary picked up the report, opened it, and began to read: "Sincerely, Your Highness Michael Helton, the corresponding plan for the 'Corresponding Plan to Control the Demon Crystal of the Nightless Clan' is progressing steadily, and we have learned from the information we have received from the black market that this magic crystal is ...... from the side of the Eastern Saint Continent."

Continue to go back and talk about Ninety-Nine, who has been bored watching the snow scene for an hour.
And because I was really bored, I recalled my experiences of this day.
"Hey...... There are a lot of things that are wrong today...... No one blends in with everyone, obviously they came here to be adventurers, looking for some partners......"
Ninety-nine cupped his knees and curled up in his chair. The snow-white arms hugged the white legs tightly, and the red eyes were thinking about it intently.
"Everybody hates the Nightless and is scared...... Obviously Lao Tzu said so cutely. β
"But when I ordered, I thought I was doing well, and the two waiters were cute by me. But at that time, I was only concerned about letting Gennai order the food, and if I had said that the venue was chartered, then the group of adventurers would have been super happy, and then believe me! Then let me join them. After all, a team of two people or something...... No matter how you think about it, it's not too lively......"
"Next time, it's still very simple for me to charter a venue or something, after all, I have so much money. Uh-huh! β
Ninety-nine was smug with a lovely smile on his face.
"Hmm...... Speaking of which, when I ate with Gennai, I actually ate it directly without testing the poison...... Still not too cautious......"
"No, no, no, no, if you go to the union to eat normally, do you still care about poisoning?" A certain personality complained forcefully.
"Hehe......" Ninety-Nine smiled bitterly, "I didn't show up tonight, Inside."
Ninety-Nine sighed lonely, "Today is December 22nd...... There are only 4 days left until the Prayer Festival. β
Suddenly! A picture flashed through Ninety-Nine's mindβthe scene he saw yesterday morning when he took Gennai to the slums: Ninety-Nine saw a prostitute 'working' inside through the frosty window.
Although the frost on the window 'processed the picture', the silhouette and the sound were 99% sure of what was going on inside. And he still remembers the anger in his heart at that time, when he almost smashed those houses with his ghost claws.
"Cut...... If it weren't for the sake of not causing trouble...... (I really want to shoot that house directly!) οΌβ
Someone taunted: "What? Are people doing comfortable things still hindering you? β
"Comfortable? Hehe, in the department!! Ninety-nine rebuffed fiercely. That kind of thing is something that I categorically can't accept, especially after crossing over to that broken tavern! Ninety-nine's hatred for that kind of thing had reached insane proportions.
"Fack! A bunch of garbage, deserving of it in the slums! "Ninety-nine is ruthless.
At this moment, Genna woke up, curled up, looked at the room with the lights on, and found the owner sitting in a chair, two ruby eyes staring out the window where it was still snowing.
"The host...... Haven't slept yet? Thinking about it, Gennai also asked, "Master...... Haven't you slept yet?"
"Well, I don't want to sleep yet. What's wrong?" Ninety-nine immediately adjusted his expression, lowered his legs from the chair, sat upright in the chair, and smiled back with a cute and confident smile.
"Hmm...... Nothing, it's just ...... Well, thank you......" Genna said in a bit of a panic, and blocked the part of her eyes with half a quilt.
"Huh? Is there anything I can thank you for?" Ninety-nine put his legs back on the ground, his right elbow resting on the arm of the chair, his right hand resting on his face, looking at Genna.
