Deep in the Sepaan Swamp, on an island in the middle of the lake, there is a black complex of buildings that houses the headquarters of the Dark Shadow.

In a room.

"Something is not right, for Felin. Sox's assassination operation should have ended, and it stands to reason that news will come back at this time. ”

Shadow of the Dark Pope Nikolai. Rezanov frowned slightly.

"There's something wrong with that."

Monica Kelsen, who has a black rose tattoo on her face, also frowned slightly.

"Agreed."

Conrad Anthony, who wore a trench coat covering his chin and lips, said, still succinctly.

"I'll reach out to Fadili and ask him about the situation."

Monica Kelsen raises her left hand, triggering a black metal ring on the middle of her left hand.

This black metal ring is an alchemy item that can only be equipped by the upper echelons of Dark Shadow, and can communicate over long distances, and has an effect similar to the Elder Crest of the Security Bureau.

Airplanes!

Soon after, contact was connected, and a virtual screen appeared. Khoza's face appeared.

"Fadilly, to Ferrin. Was Sox's assassination attempt successful? ”

See Fadili on the screen. Hoza, Monica Kelsen asked.

"It's not started yet."

Fadili. Hoza said.

"It hasn't started yet, what's going on?"

Monica Kelson asked, confused.

"Ferrin. Sox changed his itinerary on the fly and failed to ambush Ferrin at the ambush site. Sox. ”

Fadili. Hoza said.

"Changing the itinerary at the last minute, is it too coincidental? Will the Security Service have been aware of the targeting of Felin. Sox's assassination? ”

Monica Kelson frowned.

"I don't rule out the possibility, I've already had people investigate this in detail."

Fadili. Hoza said.

"Be careful, and if you can't do it, give it up immediately."

Monica Kelsen said.

"By the way, when you return from the mission, buy a batch of food and come back, and the food at the headquarters is only enough for a month."

"I see."

Fadili. Khoza should be lowered.

"Don't forget."

Monica Kelsen nodded and ended the call.

At the end of the call, her face suddenly became extremely ugly, and she said.

"Something happened to Fadili, this person is not Fadili!"

Hearing Monica Kelson's words, Nikola. Both Rezanov and Konrad Antony had a sudden change in complexion.

Nikolai. Rezanov asked urgently.

"Isn't it mistaken?"

"A month ago, the headquarters purchased a batch of grain, enough to eat until next year, and it was Fadili who purchased this batch of grain at that time."

"If this person is the real Fadili, it is impossible not to know that there is no shortage of food in the headquarters today."

Monica Kelsen said in a deep voice.

"Even the communication ring has fallen into the hands of someone else, and it seems that something has happened to Fadili."

Nikolai. Rezanov's face was gloomy.

"The Security Service is definitely in the name of Felin. Sox set a trap, and Fadili didn't check it for a while and fell into the trap of the Security Service. ”

Monica Kelsen said.

"The chances of Fadili surviving are slim, and I'm more worried now that there are transcendents in the Security Service who are good at interrogation, will the location of the headquarters be exposed?"

"Just in case, we'll move right now."

Nikolai. Rezanov stood up and said.

Close to a place deep in the swamp.

End of contact with "Fadili. Khoza's face squirmed like mud, and soon became a different face.

He is a mystic master who practices the esoteric art of imitation, and by practicing this esoteric art, he is not only able to transform into anyone, but also the ability to imitate others.

Of course, there is a limit to this, and the strength of his ability to imitate depends on the level of his own ability.

"Fortunately, I was prepared, otherwise it would have been exposed."

See disguised as Fadili. The mystics of Hoza dealt with Monica Kelsen, and Grand Elder Harvey López breathed a sigh of relief.

"No, we've been exposed."

The deputy head of the temple, Imogen Archer, shook his head.

"Lord Archer, are you sure we've been exposed?"

Naga. Halowin's face changed slightly.

"There's a lot of potential for exposure."

Imogen Archer nodded.

"In disguise as Fadili. After Khoza's mystic agreed to buy food, there was a moment of unnaturalness in Monica Kelson's voice. ”

"My guess is that buying food is probably a temptation."

"Monica Kelsen is so cunning."

Naga. Halowin's face was ugly, he thought for a moment, and looked at Lindy and said.

"Lindy, directly use the Dark Night Domain, this distance should be enough to bring that island in the lake into the envelope."

"Okay."

Lindy nodded, activating her extraordinary ability, the Night.

Her eyes turned pitch black, and the extreme darkness centered on her and spread rapidly to her surroundings.

In a very short period of time, it turned into a dark field that covered a city of one million people.

Except for Lindy, everyone's eyes couldn't help but darken.

However, they soon recovered, and Lindy temporarily gave them the ability to see in the dark.

"It has indeed been exposed, and the cultists at the Dark Shadow Headquarters are retreating."

With the help of the Night Realm, Lindy sensed the situation at the Dark Shadow Headquarters, located deep in the Sepa Swamp.

It was immediately discovered that the people of the Dark Shadow Headquarters were evacuating outside the headquarters.

"We can't let them escape, we don't have to hide their whereabouts, we'll rush over at full speed."

Naga. Halowin said.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

No longer hiding their whereabouts, everyone rushed to the depths of the Sepaan swamp at full speed.

And the fastest movers were naturally the six transcendents, leaving the others far behind, and hurried towards the depths of the Sepaan swamp.

"Speed Enhancement."

Fei Lin uses the speed enhancement of the Enhancement Gem to gain a movement speed comparable to that of an extraordinary level.

Get out of the way from the others and quickly keep up with the six people at the front.

A few hours passed, and the Enhancement Gem was able to be used again.

"Why is it getting dark?"

"It's an extraordinary ability, and we're caught up in some kind of extraordinary ability!"

"It's the Security Bureau, and the Security Bureau is coming so quickly."

Suddenly plunged into darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, the fleeing Shadow of Darkness cultist suddenly became panicked.

Knowing that the enemy had arrived, they chose a direction and fled forward with their senses, hoping to escape the envelope of the night realm.

However, in addition to the field of vision, the dark field can also affect the sense of direction.

After Lindy reached transcendence, this effect on the sense of direction became even stronger.

And then a strange scene appeared.

One by one, the cultists who escaped from the Dark Shadow Headquarters unknowingly changed direction and returned to the Dark Shadow Headquarters one after another in the process of escaping.

Nicholas, who has reached the transcendent level. Rezanov, Konrad Anthony, and Monica Kelsen were able to escape the influence of their extraordinary abilities in the night on their sense of direction, and they did not flee and returned to headquarters.
