Chapter 241: Urgency
Tingen, Daffodil Straße 2, in a bedroom completely shrouded in night.
Klein, who had been tossing and turning for a long time before barely falling asleep, suddenly heard a buzzing whisper in his ears, and he opened his eyes in a daze, and his not very awake head was dizzy for a few seconds.
Someone is praying to me...... Well, there was a warm feeling on the back of my hand...... This time, this familiar feeling...... Wouldn't it be the "tower" that was driving away the evil spirits of that Miss Hugh?
Crane stared blankly at the clock in front of his bed for a long time to understand what was happening, and then he got up and stretched out very unfiguratively.
Don't ask me to "go online" and watch "eat broadcasts"...... I've learned a lot about the occult every time, but if I do it again, I'll have to warn him that Mr. Fool isn't that happy about it.
With this in mind, Crane stood up to make sure that the bedroom door was locked, then sealed the entire room with a spiritual wall, then walked four steps backwards, chanted a incantation, and came to the gray mist.
In the majestic palace like the abode of giants, his figure appeared at the top of the long bronze table, and a crimson star was reflected in his eyes, which was constantly shrinking and expanding.
Crane raised his right hand, spreading spirituality, and touched the star that symbolized the "tower".
Suddenly, he saw a distorted and blurry picture, and saw Mr. "Tower" in his pajamas, sitting on the edge of the bed that seemed to be wet with rain, and clasped his hands against his buried forehead.
This bedroom looks familiar! Sure enough, Mr. "Tower" was the same man who had always been with Miss Hugh in the middle of the night...... Probably the same man from Detective Abner Blaine.
Crane once again found evidence to confirm what he had been guessing all along, and after listening carefully for a while, he soon figured out what Mr. "Tower" had asked him for.
"Class 1" seals?
A 700-year-old "newly unearthed" baron contaminated by an unknown existence?
Joint operations of "Heart of the Machine" and MI9......
Miss Hugh is going to face these horrible things? No wonder Mr. "Tower" was not at ease, and even asked me to protect her at the cost of ten "Russell Diaries......
It wouldn't be a big deal if I just helped take a look, but if Miss Hugh was really in danger, how could I save it? Write to Mr. Azik? But how do I explain this to Mr. Azik?
In a flash of thought, Klein spiritually touched the crimson star that symbolized Miss Hugh, dyed with a little sun-like gold.
The light and shadow changed, and one scene after another quickly appeared in front of his eyes.
It was Mr. "Tower" presiding over the "ceremony" for Miss Hugh!
Hey? This ritual does not seem to be just to maintain the "purifying aura", but also seems to be vaguely pointing to a mysterious being...... Wait, that mysterious being can't be me, right?
As soon as Klein thought of this, he saw Mr. "Tower" stop Miss Hugh before she left, and vaguely reminded her of the honorific name in "The Feast of Blood".
I understand! Mr. "Tower" secretly set up the postponed "secret contract" in the operation just now, and once Miss Hugh recites the honorific name of "Fool", she will point the object of the "secret agreement" to me!
He was afraid that I would not respond to his request, so he made an extra layer of preparation, so that Miss Hugh could gradually get along with me through the "secret agreement" in a desperate situation, and then help her?
What a clever technique, "Tower" is really a master of ritual magic.
In addition to sighing, Klein also had some ideas on how to give shelter to Miss Hugh. He thought back to what was written in The Feast of Blood, and reached out to pick up the "Fallen Morning Star" necklace from the clutter pile.
The gems on this necklace are from demigod-level dragons, and although the abilities that can be used are only Sequence 5, their own personalities can be borrowed to pry the power of the gray mist.
Retracting his gaze from the five-colored gem, Klein pondered for more than ten seconds before answering the prayer of the "tower":
"I see."
After giving a vague reply, Crane spread his spirituality to Miss Hugh's stars again, watching the "live broadcast" and observing her physical and spiritual condition at all times.
Looks like I'm going to have another night's sleep...... If this continues, sooner or later my hairline will have to catch up with Benson.
……
Beckland,
Upon arriving at the assembly site on Tucker Street in the Bridge District, Hugh was placed in front of a house on the corner by a woman wearing a gold mask along with the other four agents.
At this time, the woman in the golden mask said to the secret agents in a cold voice:
"There is a very terrifying monster trapped in the seal '1-010' by His Excellency the Admiral and the archbishop of the Steam Church, but although '1-010' can seal off the space, it has multiple entrances and exits like a labyrinth...... This house is one of the exits.
"That terrifying monster has the ability to create dependents, and once its dependents break out of the encirclement of the 'Heart of the Machine' and our MI9, escape the blockade of '1-010', and possess the inhabitants of the surrounding neighborhoods, it will be possible to get that monster out of trouble!
"So, your mission is to hold this exit and kill everything that leaks out of it!
"Don't be stingy with your extraordinary weapons, the military will reimburse you for all wear and tear tonight."
A spy asked solemnly, "Madam, what kind of monster is the enemy?" ”
"Anything is possible, maybe it's a person, maybe it's a cat, maybe it's a sheep, maybe even a puppet, a kitchen, etc., and of course the most is the dead and the living." The lady in the gold mask said in a deep voice.
The faces of the five secret agents, except for Hugh, were not very good-looking, because their sequences were generally not very high, and they had never encountered such a dangerous thing before.
The woman wearing the golden mask took in the expressions and expressions of several people, and nodded secretly, thinking that these people were worthy of being the more powerful characters among the peripheral agents, although they were afraid, they were not flustered...... In particular, the girl named Hugh Dilcha was the most calm, not very tall, but really good in guts.
After some secret evaluation, the lady with the golden mask looked around at everyone and spoke again:
"You don't have to worry too much, because I'm the main force here, you just need to temporarily entangle the other monsters when I can't spare my hands.
"And you just have to stay here for an hour, and after an hour, the reinforcement will arrive."
As soon as her words fell, several spies breathed a sigh of relief.
And at this moment, several mutant "monsters" broke out of the house covered in blood.
……
In the locked Dragon's Tooth bar, Archbishop Horamic Haydon of the Diocese of Bakerland of the Church of Steam and Machines looked at a member of the "Heart of the Machine" team who was panting and came to report, and asked in a serious tone:
"How's it going?"
"The first reinforcements of MI9 have arrived, which has temporarily stabilized the situation...... However, Lord Archbishop, '1-025' seems to be able to turn any item into a rabbit, a cow, a pig, or other animal without limitation, and can also allow these animals to multiply quickly, then cause them to fall into monsters...... And when those monsters are killed, they will turn into living corpses or dead spirits, and they will still be driven by them...... It's not the way to go on like this! The member of the Heart of Mechanic wiped the blood from his face and reported quickly.
Horamik Haydn frowned when he heard this, looked at the military demigods beside him, and said after consideration: "Your Excellency, Admiral, can't you still find the specific location of the possessed baron?" ”
"All I can be sure is that he's stuck in these two blockaded blockades! But even if you control '1-010', you can't sense it. The military sage shook his head and said regretfully.
"Then I'll give you another half hour, and if your men haven't been able to find out where she is after half an hour, then I'll report this to the 'Substitute Punisher' and the 'Night Watcher' for reinforcements." Horamik said after a moment's thought.
"Half an hour? OK! The military sage in the golden mask hesitated, but nodded.
……
At the same time, Abner, who had just flown out of the house with Jane, suddenly condescended to find a lady wearing a beige ruffled collar dress who was braving the heavy rain to rush to the Garden House on Kings Street.
"Furth?!"
