Chapter 45: The Open Door

"So, what's your next purpose, Berenwell?" Another officer asked, "Is it the archbishop's throne?" ”

Berenwell spread his hands, "I can only listen to God's will, I just want to continue to serve the Order." ”

"Oh, whatever you choose, we've got your back."

"Thankfully, let it be," Berenwell smiled cautiously, "for now, my friends, I suggest we put politics and military aside and concentrate on going to the party, which is full of Mobius classics." With that, his friends dispersed.

Luna waited for his companions to all walk down the hall before slowly approaching him, Belenwell picking up a glass of cider and scanning the surroundings with a mixture of satisfaction and wariness in his eyes. I knew my chance had come.

As everyone else stared at the senior officer's speech on the stage in the center of the banquet, Luna quietly walked over to the trapped officer.

"It's hard to get you to say such flattering words," Luna said in a low voice, "but this may be the last of your life, Berenwell." ”

Belenville recognized Luna with the concealment device turned off, his eyes widened in horror, and he said tremblingly, "It's you!" ”

"Yes, future Archbishop, it's me, Luna. Freth, I'm here to avenge your one-time boss, Franklin. Luna then made him hear a brief mechanical pop before striking a sharp blade against his neck, "Goodbye, Archbishop Berenville," Luna said coldly.

"Stop!" Berenwell gasped and said, "If you were in my position, you would do the same thing, in order to protect your family and friends, forgive me, I have no choice!" ”

"And what's up with Alice's injury?" Luna leans closer, deaf to his pretexts, and learns in Jaceline's diary that Berenwell is a man of choices, but sometimes valuable choices make him weak and afraid to make choices, which is one of the reasons why he has never been able to get into Adolf's eyes.

"If you were given another chance to live, I don't know how many more people would be killed! Listen now! Luna said fiercely, "I know you have some military documents about Whartont's interior, where did you put them?" ”

"You'll never want to find them, I'll never leave those files!" Berenwell tries to push Luna away before shouting at the guards, but Luna doesn't give him the chance. Luna stabbed the blade into his throat, then severed his carotid artery and throat so hard that Berenwell couldn't even make a sound, so he fell to his knees, his hands instinctively clutching his throat, trying in vain to suppress the blood sprayed on the ground.

As he fell, Luna quickly turned on the stealth device and became a black-robed assassin with a skull mask, then she bent down and used her sleeve blade to cut the purse on his waist and opened it to take a look, yes, the guy told the truth in the last arrogance of his life, and the documents were really on him.

There was a sudden silence around them, the speeches on the stage came to an abrupt end, and the guests began to look back, still not understanding what was happening. Luna stood up and faced them, "Yes, just like you see!" I'm alive! Long live the Crusader Blade! She yelled with a voice changer that she had prepared, and just then, one of the noble ladies among the officers screamed, "There are assassins! Then chaos reigned supreme, and the guards quickly surrounded her, sword drawn, and the guests scattered, the braver stepped forward and tried to restrain Luna, but no one dared to do so.

"Take him down for me!" The officer on stage yells like a mad dog, and Luna's actions make him lose face. But in the ensuing panic, he also fled in a hurry.

Everyone is shouting, and the city guards are flooding the hallways with some artificial intelligence, which is not a good sign, Luna will be besieged by them.

However, God still favors her, the newly arrived guards are very confused, they don't even know which people to chase, Luna quickly slipped into the panic, switched back to the appearance of a cultist, and then blended into the crowd and pretended to scream and poured out of the hallway.

After escaping, a passerby asks Luna, "What happened?" ”

Luna only said lightly, "Oh my God, they just said that justice was served......" and prepared to return to the hospital.

On the way back, Luna paused a little to confirm the contents of Berenwell's wallet, the guy's last words were indeed true, and all the documents were inside.

In addition to this, there was something else, it was a letter that Berenwell had not yet sent, and in order to confirm its contents, Luna tore open the fire paint printed on it and pulled out the parchment inside, which was his personal letter to his wife, and Luna read the letter and gradually understood what kind of forces forced a person to abandon his beliefs, and Luna opened it.

"Dear Mary: Perhaps this is the last time I will write to you, so I have written these thoughts in the hope that one day I will have the courage to share them with you. As you may have heard, I betrayed my one-time boss, my one-time friend Hudson, whom I killed with Adolphus and took her wife with her.

Out of humanity, I ordered my men to spare his child, an act that would most likely be recorded in later history as political and moral degradation, but I also understood that it was an atonement for me, and that it was not fate that forced me to do so, but the fear of my position.

As Martin took everything from me, I found myself full of fear. For you, for our son, for Wharton's future, I have to do this! If a country is fully engaged in dark times, then what hope does he have in this world!

Adolf wants the world at all, but ignores his bureaucrats, so I'm determined to let go of his daughter and entrust her with the task of changing the world.

I have come to feel her coming, and the fear of death, that I may finally die as a cowardly figure and leave this world, so my love, when you see this letter, if I am still alive, please pass the map inside to the man of the waiter in the shadow; If I've died, by all means, escape from Wharton, go to Atlante, and if you can, please tell my last words to a man named Mark.

Perhaps only he can stop Adolf's plot......" After reading his letter, Luna fully understood the darkness of the world, as well as the two-sided nature of a person, and she carefully folded the letter, put it in her pocket, resealed it, and went to a nearby mailbox.

Luna cops the letter with fire paint, puts it in the inventory of the virtual world, and sends it as a scheduled mail. Luna left a map and a few letters in her wallet, but now is not the time to open them. Luna leaves the post office and turns into a side alley, looking at the neighborhood through the map, which shows that it is a nearby secret passage, and this secret passage seems to be near the hospital, Luna quickly contacts Adeline and asks Bertha to accompany her, while Adeline guards Alice.

Bertha arrived, Luna put away the letter and began to look around, stepped lightly on the floor with her foot, did not loosen in the slightest, and looked at the wall, where was the secret passage? Thinking, thinking, Luna was leaning her back against a low wall, and just as she was thinking about her colleague, the wall behind her suddenly moved, and Luna "Oops! With a scream, she fell backwards into the black hole behind her, and Bertha entered the hole and grabbed her hand, and then the wall returned to calm.

"Pull me up...... Get out ......," Luna said tremblingly.

"You think it's easy...... Just as Bertha finished speaking, there was a muffled "bang" behind her, and the secret door closed and the two of them were slapped down.

Luna senses that her body is constantly sliding, which seems to be a downward slope, and it feels like the decline is taking a long time, which is not a good sign!

Luna quickly ordered Bertha to use her foot to lightly step on the wall around her to change the direction of her body so that her head was up, and then she pulled out the switchblade from her waist with all her might, and slammed it against the wall to stop herself.

But when the two came to a safe stop, she discovered another fact: they had reached the bottom of the slope.

Luna stood up and helped Bertha behind her, and with the help of her right eye's night vision, she found that her black robe had been worn to tatters, and of course Bertha's was the same.

"Well, that's true...... Luna took off her robe and tossed it aside, she checked her inventory, really, it seems that all she has left is tights now.

Suddenly, the lights around them suddenly turned on, and then a surprising scene appeared in front of the two of them. It was a very similar bunker to Draghu Castle, and Luna was at first taken aback, she never expected that the room would be filled with bookshelves full of expensive books with good bindings.

Luna felt a little strange, she quickly opened Berenwell's secret letter, followed his instructions, found a book of "BloodMary" and "Prince Dracula", blew the dust on the surface, and she looked at it for a while.

The book tells the story of a blood-drinking demon from the last human century, and it seems that because of the age of technology, these superstitious books have been banned here.

"What exactly is the purpose of these books for me to be known by Berenwell?" Luna thought as she flipped through the contents of the book, "It's never a thing to stand and read......" She looked around and noticed a desk in the middle of the house.

Luna takes the book to a table in the center of the room with a human skeleton model and numerous wooden dolls, and a large silver-plated candelabra in the center. She spread the book flat on the table and sat down in a black oak chair beside her.

From Berrenwell's secret letter, Luna learns that Adolf's plan is related to "Bloody Mary" and "King Dracula", but no matter how much she reads the book, she only sees some sudden legends.

Just when she was a little puzzled, Bertha on the side called her.
