The heavy gate valve fell, announcing the beginning of isolation.

Amy put down the file in her hand, and lit the kerosene lamp on the side with the fire fold that had been prepared on the stone table, and the small flame rose up, illuminating the narrow secret room.

Feeling the warmth and light at hand, it is rare for his heart to feel a little calm, but it is only a few points, for the dice house, which has always been known for digging into the privacy of customers, he does not dare to take it lightly - although it is unlikely that a thing like a rare thing in the circle of glory will appear in the lower area, but it is always good to take a little more precautions, after all...... I am already in the center of the whirlpool, but I have no negligent capital.

Sighing for the unwarranted calamity that had befallen him, the young man silently opened the thick file in his hand.

The first one is named after the Foggy Night Murderer, and the file records a serial murder incident that was named the Foggy Night Killer a hundred years ago, perhaps among the people in the lower districts, this bloody and cruel executioner has long become a legend that makes children stop crying, but Amy really has no image of this name, and can only piece together the outline of the vicious incident that caused the entire lower district to panic through the vague records on the file.

And then, and then...... Then the clue came to an abrupt end.

Like the plot of a third-rate novelist, the clues that run through the whole text are gradually highlighted, and all conflicts and contradictions are about to detonate, but the murderer, who is the protagonist of the story, never appears in the field of vision of mankind again after a dull sunrise.

- The meaning is unknown.

After repeatedly confirming that the previous skipping of the pursuit of speed did not miss the key points, Amy made the above summary. But don't be angry about this, the reputation of the dice house may be quite bad, but it is not enough to use some false information to fool people casually, maybe it has something to do with the file behind?

Really...... When he opened the second file, he had the answer in his heart.

The second dossier, like the first, has no information related to the killer in a strange mask, but it points the finger directly at the mysterious force behind the killer, the Dark Guild, more precisely, a mysterious experiment codenamed Killer by the Dark Guild.

Livetest, flesh transplant, artificial half-demon ......

The more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, and the more he was shocked by the dense darkness of the lower districts—no matter how terrifying the technical power was contained in these unusual experimental projects, the young man couldn't help but gasp just by thinking of the terrifying death ability of the Dark Guild organization.

If it's just a live experiment, it's okay, and those big people in the upper area of this kind of thing have also done a lot, and if they are really exposed, they will criticize them verbally and penally, and no glorious person will be on the bar for an ethereal sense of justice and an organization that is obviously not weak, even if it is a relatively "clean" glorious person like Amy, he will not blindly set up enemies before it involves vital interests.

But when it comes to flesh transplants and artificial half-demons, things don't get that simpler.

Because—

That's taboo.

In the Iron Law of the Ten Commandments followed by the Order, although it is not explicitly stated that those who transplant demon flesh and blood must be eliminated, the nature of man-made half-demons is actually not inferior to that of colluding demons, and the slightest mistake in the process can even lead to the birth of new high-level demons from the already dead flesh and blood, causing a catastrophe that will sweep through the entire city.

This alone violates the interests of all those in the city.

If the Order gets the news, at least one of the sword-wielding men will intervene in the investigation, and with the Order's incredible methods, it must only be a matter of time before everything is clarified.

After all...... No one knows the horrors of the other better than the Glory.

It was a bottomless horror.

The Order's history in Hemtica was only three hundred years, and the mysterious religious organization in Hemtika did not exist for three hundred years - no one knew where they came from, and no one realized what terrifying power they had behind them, until their tentacles penetrated deep into the upper realms, into the hunting grounds of the Glory...... Thus, a battle broke out that did not go down in history.

No one knows the outcome of the battle, or the two sides who are afraid of each other did not tear their faces in the end.

At the very least, in this battle, the Glorious Ones confirmed that the Order came from the vast darkness, and that they possessed far more technological power than their time, not only developing warships capable of crossing the Dark Void, but also giving ordinary people terrifying powers that were indistinguishable from the Glorious Ones, and even faintly above them.

This is the one who bears the sword and the one who bears the great sword.

- Not a failure, but better than a failure.

For the first time, the glorious ones who are high above have tasted humiliation.

And this shame has not been washed away until a hundred years later—the supreme tower of the Order still stands in the center of the upper district, although it has not been further expanded, and even narrowed the scope of its influence, and the dioceses set up in the lower districts have been abandoned, but the number of sword-bearers has not decreased but increased, and the number of permanent great sword-bearers has increased from one to three.

Yes – shocking.

This force is enough to upend the rule of the Descendants of Glory, and enough to threaten the very existence of Hemtika.

Not to mention...... The ...... "Ark" that roams the dark zone.

Everything about the Order is shrouded in a thick cloud of suspicion, and the only thing that can be determined is that it has a strength beyond ordinary imagination, and a ...... for darkness and chaos Absolute abhorration.

Therefore, the community of interests in the name of darkness has undoubtedly kicked to the iron plate this time.

The people in the lower districts may be limited by knowledge, maybe because of the fear of the Dark Guild, or because they don't know much about the Order, and maybe even everyone is not clean in private, so no one will expose it, but the young man doesn't have so many scruples, as a victim, he doesn't have a good impression of the Dark Guild and the murderers it raises, and it is really good to be able to sweep them away with the help of the Order.

Amy, who got the unexpected help, happily turned the second file to the last page, and then opened the third and final file, and interestingly, the title of the third volume is only subtly different from the first volume in order, one is the Misty Night Murderer, the other is the Murderous Ghost Foggy Night, from this title alone, it can be seen that there must be some kind of connection between the two, and considering the murderous ghost recorded in the second file......

The boy narrowed his eyes and didn't speak, just flipped the pages.

Sure enough, the third volume records the assassin he met last night wearing a mask that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, crying but not crying...... Or a murderer. It's just that there is too little really valuable information in it, and what is recorded in it is either a few words from eyewitnesses, or a few traces left at the scene, which can only play a little corroborating role for someone like him who has confronted and repelled the other party.

If it had been at first, Amy might have been discouraged by the result, but now......

Anyway, there is a way to get the Order's sword-wielders to walk down the Supreme Tower, and when the Order officially intervenes, presumably the Dark Guild and the murderers it raises will not have the energy to cause trouble for him.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of the young man's mouth.

- This is a really good move.

If the lower zone of the multi-force competition is a large vortex on the surface of the sea that swallows everything, then the high Order is a mountain with no edge in sight, and dragging it into the water will not only have the effect of muddying the water, but the unrivaled impact is enough to crush the entire vortex and turn the entire sea upside down. Even if he didn't move his whole body, but only sent a sword-wielder to act as an investigator, the symbolism behind it must be enough to make the intriguing forces look sideways, so that the chess pieces and chessboards that have been placed by all parties for a long time will be smashed by this sudden apple from the sidelines.

When the time comes, whether you advance or retreat, you can choose calmly.

Thinking of this, Amy stood up.

Now that the information has been obtained, there is no need to stay longer.

Thinking so, he pushed open the heavy door, handed back the three borrowed files to the staff waiting outside, and after the other party had finished checking them, he quietly left the dice room as if he had come, like a grain of sand returning to the sea, and he disappeared into the surging crowd.

With the surging crowd and the complicated streets nearby, he shook off the tracker behind him, and then took off the cap on his head and the large mask on his face in a planned and step-by-step manner, and when he arrived in a remote corner where no one was inhabited, he threw the thick trench coat on his body straight into the garbage heap, and returned to the crowd in plain clothes.

- Next, it's time to go to the upper floor.

- And then, the Tower of the Highest.

"Yulia ......"

Whispering the girl's name, the teenager who had the heart to get out of the whirlpool couldn't help but feel a little emotional for a while.

But before he could express his sorrow, he couldn't help but wake up with the sudden knock on the door, and after hurriedly adjusting his state, he opened the thick door and looked up at the uninvited guest who came in a hurry.

Tall skinny guy...... He was Paul's acolyte.

Recognizing the visitor at first sight, Amy frowned slightly—although he and Simon knew each other well, they didn't have much to do with each other, and besides, this guy's life would definitely not be easy after Paul's death, and he really couldn't think of any reason to drive the other party to come and disturb him, except for ...... The death of the giant Paul.

A veritable uninvited guest.

He thought that his gaze inadvertently swept over the huge shadow not far away, and the indifferent smile on his face froze for a moment.

- Time seems to freeze for a moment.

"No...... Can...... Can ......"

In a trembling tone, the words that should not be spoken do not come out of the mouth.
