In the dark basement, dozens of figures in black robes stand.

On the chair in the center was the bearded man who had made a deal with Viscount Orn in the tavern that day.

The bearded man did not have the kindness and politeness that he had when facing Viscount Orn, and now he exuded an extremely awe-inspiring aura around him.

"What the hell are those two guys doing?"

The big man opened his mouth lightly, and a cold light shot out of his eyes.

"It's been the first few days!"

Swept by this cold gaze, the dozens of black-robed people standing only felt a chill down their spines.

One of the black-robed men stepped forward and bowed his head in a salute.

"Master North, Jimmy and Jack didn't reply to the mission, so something special must have happened. ”

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, North stood up.

"Special circumstances?"

looked indifferently at the black-robed man in front of him, and the anger in his eyes was not concealed at all.

"Don't they know what kind of punishment they will face for their so-called special situation?"

Hearing North's gloomy words, the dozens of black-robed people below trembled in unison.

They know very well the house rules of the dark curtain, and they also know that if they take over the task and do not complete it on time, there is only one dead end for the world to be big.

Sensing North's anger, the black-robed man was uneasy.

He raised his eyes and peeked at Northtieqing's face, and then said cautiously,

"Lord North, why don't you reassign the mission, let's finish the mission first. If this incident has tarnished the reputation of our shadows, I am afraid that the above will blame it......"

North's eyes narrowed slightly, and the green tendons between his foreheads were exposed.

"Jester, you've been in the dark curtain for a long time, don't you know the rules?"

Hearing North's angry voice, Jester shivered.

He bent down respectfully, not daring to make any more noise.

The Dark Curtain is the largest underground organization in the Dark Empire, not only in the realm of the Blood Clan, but even within the fiefdoms of the other three princes, there are deacons of the Dark Curtain.

With such a large organization, discipline is naturally strict. And their biggest service tenet is to keep the confidentiality of their employers.

Since there is this iron law, the tasks they assign are only one-line contacts. In other words, there is no need to bother the two masters, and the task is top secret.

Regarding the mission of Viscount Orn, only North and Jack and Jimmy, who were assigned by him, know the specific task in the dark curtain deacon point in Black Rock City, and now that these two people are missing, the only solution is that North, the chief deacon, personally intervenes to end this matter.

However, this is a bit difficult, because Viscount Orn's mission is indeed a bit special.

The Dark Curtain is the largest intelligence network in the Dark Empire, to be precise, the main business of the Dark Curtain is intelligence trading, and assassination only accounts for a small part of it.

This task assigned by Viscount Orn is not common in the dark curtains, and the most critical task is the Spirit Eclipse Pill.

This Spirit Erosion Pill has special medicinal properties and is expensive, which is relatively rare among first-class cities. Therefore, the most difficult part of this task is not how to get Baron Roy to eat it, but how to get this soul eclipse pill.

If you don't have this Eclipse Pill, what do you want him to feed to Baron Roy's mouth?

Thinking of this, North was angry.

"These two damn guys!"

He clenched his fists fiercely, and his red eyes were swirling with manic killing intent.

"All the fourth-order masters in the deacon office are scattered, find the two of them at all costs, live or die!"

Hearing Chief North's murderous words, everyone standing in the deacon's hall couldn't help but be stunned.

They didn't want to touch their heads at this time, so they all hurriedly gave a salute and walked out of the hall in a witty manner.

Jester is the vice-deacon of the deacon's office and the supreme leader of the deacon's office in Blackstone City, with the exception of North.

He was already trembling when he saw North's furiousness.

You must know that this Chief Deacon of North is a fifth-order high-level realm of dark power, and that is a baron-level powerhouse who has mastered the Eight Classics. In this Black Rock City, apart from Viscount Orn, there are very few who can match it.

The most terrible thing is that the chief deacon has the right to kill at will in the deacon's office.

Even if you are the vice-deacon, he can slaughter you like a chicken.

The deacons in the dark around him walked out of the deacon hall one after another, and Jester hurriedly saluted and prepared to leave.

But just as he turned to go out, Chief Deacon North suddenly stopped him.

"Jester, wait a minute. ”

Jester's shoulders shuddered, and he stopped.

Turning, he looked respectfully at North.

"Lord North, you... Do you have any other commands?"

North's anger seemed to have calmed down, and the terrifying aura around him dissipated.

"You can't expect them to find those two guys anytime soon, you might as well apply for a Spirit Eclipse Pill from above. ”

He looked at Genos, his eyes unusually calm.

The money was paid by the deacon. ”

Genos was slightly stunned.

"Your ......, my lord"

North's eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze at Genos was unusually deep.

"I can't afford to lose the reputation of the dark curtain. ”

Hearing this, Genos suddenly realized.

"What do you mean ......"

The corners of North's mouth twitched with a fierce look.

"You're going to do it naturally. ”

There was murderous intent in North's dark eyes.

"As for Roy's shit, hehe......"

......

The afternoon sun was just right, the wind was mild, and the sky was cloudless.

Li Yanbei dragged out of the practice room with heavy steps, and the heavy dark circles under his eyes made him look haggard.

Walking to the hall, Li Yanbei sat down on a chair.

He looked out the window with misty eyes, as if exhausted.

"Your uncle's. ”

"It didn't take much effort to build the foundation for the first time. ”

He coughed lightly twice, seemingly slightly visibly wounded.

"Fortunately, it succeeded, otherwise Dao Xuanzong's face would have been lost by me. ”

Just after the foundation was successfully built, Li Yanbei climbed up from the underground practice room without a moment's rest.

After spending the night and the morning in the dark, impermeable dark room, he longed for some fresh air.

The breeze outside the window drifted in, stirring the hair between Li Yanbei's forehead.

His nostrils inhaled the fresh air hard, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Cool ......"

Lazily stretched, Li Yanbei put his legs on the table.

"It's so cool......"

He dangled his legs leisurely, and his depressed mood seemed to gradually subside.

"Fiona ......"

Opening his mouth, Li Yanbei shouted lazily.

"Pour me a glass of milk. ”

After a moment of Li Yanbei's shouting, the sound of the door opening and closing came from the corridor leading to Fiona's room in the hall.

Immediately after, the sound of slow, irregular footsteps echoed through the corridor.

"Huh?"

Li Yanbei frowned slightly, as if he was slightly confused.

In his impression, Fiona's steps are always so steady and crisp.

Except for the stumbling when I opened the door and left after eating the so-called 'Fiona's Ultimate Mystery Donuts' yesterday.

Li Yanbei tilted his head slightly, and was suddenly taken aback.

He looked at Fiona in amazement, and her mouth opened wide as if she could hold a whole pumpkin.

"I'll go!"

Li Yanbei straightened up and looked Fiona up and down.

"What the hell is wrong with you?"

Fiona leaned against the wall and ran her hand through her fluffy, messy short hair.

She was as silent as usual, but there was a resentful look in her eyes with heavy dark circles.

Li Yanbei blinked, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.

He seemed to suddenly understand why Fiona, who was usually heroic, had become what she was now.

"Poof......

Li Yanbei covered his mouth with his hand, but the laughter that was about to burst out could not be stopped.

He had imagined what had happened to Fiona's wonderful throat last night.

"Fei... Phenanthrene...... Poof......"

Li Yanbei gagged fiercely, for fear that he would laugh too much.

And Fiona stared at Li Yanbei deadly, eager to go up and repair this gloating guy.

"You... You...... Poof......"

couldn't suppress the smile in his heart, Li Yanbei burst out laughing.

"Hahaha......"

Looking at Li Yanbei, who was laughing heartily, Fiona's teeth only itched with hatred.

"Lord Baron......"

She clenched her fists fiercely, and her body faintly exuded a dangerous momentum.

"I advise you to be better restrained. ”

Li Yanbei was already out of breath with laughter.

He stretched out his hand and pointed at Fiona's pretty face, which was already distorted with a smile.

"You... You...... Hahaha......"

Looking at Li Yanbei, who was laughing unscrupulously, Fiona raised her chin slightly.

"I advise you not to laugh. ”

There was a hint of hatred in her cold tone, and a cold light suddenly shot out of her watery eyes.

"You know, I'm only being ordered to keep you safe. ”

Li Yanbei didn't seem to notice the coldness in Fiona's tone, only to see him wave his hand indiscriminately, and the distortion on his face caused by the wild laughter was still as thick.

"There's an old saying you've never heard of, it's called self-inflicted masochism......"

"Lord Baron!"

Fiona's tone suddenly rose a few points, and the cold voice instantly made Li Yanbei stop laughing.

"Fei... Filipino ......"

The chill dispelled the smile in an instant, and Li Yanbei swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely.

"Fiona, you ......"

Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of Fiona's mouth hung a dangerous arc.

"If you keep laughing, your next three meals will be Fiona's Ultimate Armagind. ”

Hearing this, Li Yanbei shivered.

He looked at Fiona with a sudden horror.

Seeing Li Yanbei close his mouth in amusement, Fiona glared fiercely.

She walked slowly to the window, letting the breeze blow across her face.

"I made all the doughnuts last night, so it seems that you have to go to the market by yourself. ”

Although he didn't hear Fiona continue to follow around the 'Ultimate Mystery of Fiona', Li Yanbei was still shocked.

The fear of the 'ultimate mystery' had been ingrained in him.

However, Li Yanbei's eyes rolled twice, and then showed a shyly smile.

"Okay, okay, Miss Fiona is not in good health today, so let me go. But if there's anything you want me to bring back, I'll buy it for you. ”

Suddenly, a light breeze blew, and Fiona's tender shoulders trembled slightly.

She looked at the dark clouds gradually drifting in the sky, and her smooth forehead wrinkled slightly.

"Forget it. ”

With a soft breath, Fiona said quietly,

"If the Baron gets sick from a torrential rain while buying ingredients, I'm remiss in my duty. ”

"Heavy rain?"

Li Yanbei sneered.

"It was cloudless and a clear sky just now, where did the torrential rain come from. ”

Li Yanbei walked to the window with small steps.

"You can't have vomited too much last night, and now you're dazzled. ”

He turned his face with a smirk and followed Fiona's gaze to the horizon.

Just as his gaze was fixed on the black clouds that flashed with lightning on the edge of the sky, his expression suddenly froze on his face.

"Lord Baron, please keep your eyes open and take a good look. ”

Fiona raised an eyebrow.

"Am I dazzled or are you dazzled?"

Li Yanbei didn't reply, and his face was still the same smile he had just now.

However, at this moment, his body was motionless, as if he had been immobilized.
