Mystery: Shadow of Order

"Elder Christo, today you..."

As soon as he stepped into Christo's house, Legat with a sad face spoke directly, but he closed his mouth again when he saw the old face and all-white hair under the hood.

"well…"

Christo didn't respond immediately, but let out a long sigh, and walked slowly towards the dining-living room area. His eyes fell on a chair made of walnut wood, and his eyebrows trembled. The chair had a backrest and armrests, but both the armrests and the chair legs were spiraled into small balls, and the chair legs were swirl-shaped, or brown. Or black natural lines add a simple texture.

He walked to the chair and sat down, his head drooped, his long all-white beard spread flat on the black robe, and a sense of decay pervaded him.

Legatt also sighed, turned around and closed the door, sat on another strangely shaped chair with a peculiar beauty, and fell into silence as well.

Ten minutes later, Elder Legate, who was still younger, couldn't bear it anymore.

"Elder Christo, we can ask Rawls for help. Although he only has Sequence 4 now, he can already enter the temple. Maybe he can solve your problem?"

Because of the problems brought about by the promotion in the early years, Christo's lifespan was greatly reduced, and in recent months it looked like it would end at any time.

"If he can solve it, then he should have...hehe..." Christo shook his head, "What's more, we need him now, don't we?"

Legat frowned, his words sounded like complaints, but then he felt a little helpless. He had seen the demigods in the clan whose lifespan was exhausted because they couldn't be promoted, which was not much different from Christo now.

"Then let's exchange it first. I will guard the family secret room. You go to Severas County first. It is safe there and you don't need to worry too much."

After nearly a year, the Tamara family has stabilized in Severas County. On the contrary, because the family secret room lost the protection of the "fog of uncertainty", it often happened that the sealed items went out of control.

"I don't want to leave here." Christo raised his head, rubbed the armrest of the chair, his voice was old and deep.

Legatt persuaded him a few more times, but when Christo insisted, he had no choice but to give up, turned around and left, and returned to his home. but

…

"Are you sure you want to do this? Although Alicia said that in the letter, it is not clear whether MI9 has other means? If there is any way to determine that this matter is related to you, then how Do? Even if not, an internal investigation will definitely be conducted if a member of the headquarters is missing..."

Fors was wearing a home dress, holding a black formal coat in one hand, and "Leymano's Travel Notes" in the other, pacing back and forth around Xio, who was changing clothes, and muttering.

In her opinion, it would be too risky for Hugh to go to MI9 by pretending that he didn't know anything, even if he took "Leymano's Travel Notes", there was no guarantee that he would be able to escape. After all, Xio, who is a "judge" in Sequence 6, can prohibit teleportation, let alone the MI9 headquarters where there is a demigod?

The "travel" recorded in the notes is only one page, as long as it is slightly disturbed and the transmission fails, there is no way to do it.

"Although it is the headquarters of MI9, from my experience of working there for a few months, their work efficiency is not that high. It is hard to say whether anyone is missing. What's more, even if they do, they will The suspects should also be outsiders, spies from other countries and the like, and the probability of internal personnel being censored is very low.”

Xio shook her arm to restore the rolled up sleeves. The muscles on her face in the mirror began to squirm and became more mature. She probably looked in her early thirties. The joints and ligaments in her body were crackling, and she was ten feet taller. About one centimeter, the waist becomes more slender. but

The change in height made her clothes fit better. She buttoned up the black vest buttons one by one, and reached out to take the black formal coat that Forsi handed over. She didn't wear the knight practice uniform as usual, but chose the most common attire for members of MI9, and it was also the attire for most men in Backlund.

This is also a suggestion from Forsi. With the advantage of "vampire human skin" that can change the appearance and body shape, the most ordinary dress is the safest.

After stuffing "Lemano's Travel Notes" and his own mask into his pocket, Xio looked at the worried Forsi and said:

"Are you really not planning to leave Backlund?"

If Xio was caught, Fors would definitely be noticed, but if he could leave as soon as possible, go to another country or go to sea, the probability of not being caught is still very high.

"Don't worry, if I want to run away, I will definitely not notify you." Forsi gave Xio an angry look.

…but

Thirty to forty minutes later, Xio stepped into the MI9 headquarters that he was already familiar with a little nervously. He was slightly relieved when he found that everything was normal, and returned to his office to start processing work.

In order to prevent yesterday's incident from happening again, and to prevent people who may be paying attention secretly, she does not plan to solve the negative effects of "Vampire Human Skin" in the headquarters today, but intends to persist until the afternoon and find an excuse to leave work early and go home .

Maybe it was because she had too much work yesterday, but today's workload has been reduced a lot, so she doesn't have to worry about her excuse being found out.

When it was almost noon, Xio put down the work in hand and went to the restaurant where the "Church Comprehensive Affairs Handling Team" was located, which was a bit risky. The middle ranks like her who already have the rank of major have their own offices, and they often have meals alone.

But after coming to the restaurant, Xio felt that her actions were not very risky. She saw several team leaders like her eating at a table.

After seeing Xio, although the team leaders were a little surprised, they still waved to her and said:

"Captain Wall, do you want to go together?"

"OK."

Xio didn't refuse. She first asked for a lunch specially for the squad leader level, and then she took it to the dining table and sat down.

Although the Church of the Goddess of the Night has made great contributions to the promotion of women's work, so that there are women in male-dominated professions like the police, there are still very few women in MI9, and most of them are spies. And intelligence personnel, very few can go to the middle level, let alone here is the headquarters.

Therefore, although Captain Wall has a bad reputation, he is still a sought-after object.

There is also a reason why these small captains gather together to communicate. Not long after their boss, Brigadier General Jordi, arrived in the southern continent, a telegram came, reporting the local army commander's refusal to obey the order.

Then Gutierrez, deputy director of the major general and leader of the operation team, said that this task should have belonged to his own team. Now that the comprehensive team has not handled it well, he can go to the southern continent to take over the task as quickly as possible. Supported by the three leaders of the secretary group, the personnel group, and the sealed item group, and the deputy director.

Fortunately, Brigadier General Jordi promised in the telegram that he could complete the task, and with the insistence of the director, Mr. Selt, the task was not handed over. but

But this has caused the comprehensive team that has no leader for the time being to suffer a lot recently, and has been restricted in various aspects. Originally, their team leader was at the first level compared to other team leaders, let alone their deputy team leader.

After listening to the complaints of several team leaders, Xio returned to his office briskly.

…

In the hotel near the South Continent, West Balam, Lap City, and Eternal Sun Church.

"If the 'Red Angel' evil spirit can control '0-08' by possessing Ince Zangwill, it will be too troublesome. A top-level 'conspirator' can completely make up a perfect and flawless Stories, even the information we have now is what the other party wants us to know."

Azik Eggers, who was sitting on the single sofa, rubbed the center of his brows, his vicissitudes of eyes were full of tiredness.

Klein also felt this way. They had a lot of information, but the information was like a fog, obscuring the real answer. For example, he still didn't know what the "Undead King" wanted to do and what his reliance was. , can make him qualified to face the "King of the Five Seas" who has been promoted to an angel. but

Unless the support behind him can kill Nast, even with angels as support, it is impossible to be the same as before. Otherwise, "Vice Admiral Disease" and "Vice Admiral Iceberg" who also have angels in the organization behind them don't need to wade through the muddy water this time, because they know that Nast's power is at sea, and the forces behind them won't put too much power Bet on the sea.

"Anyway, Daly's problem has been solved, and the rest can be handed over to Lord Ilia, the Eye of the Goddess. Next, we can focus all our energy on Ince."

Speaking of Daly, Dunn Smith had a smile on his lips.

"Then why don't you stay and secretly protect Ms. Daly?"

Facing the captain, Klein could still gain the upper hand verbally.

Although Daly and Leonard's team has already investigated clearly, they must still stay here for a while.

Dunn smiled wryly and shook his head: Then

"It's not too bad that she protected me, but she got the approval of '1-93'."

"I almost forgot about that..."

Klein also shook his head with a smile. It seems that it will be difficult for the captain to surpass Ms. Daly in the future.

Azik, who looked at the two with a smile, suddenly said:

"You guys go first, I remembered something again, maybe I need to delay for a while."

Hearing this, Klein and Dunn looked at each other, and when they were about to speak, Azik stopped him with a wave of his hand.

"Don't worry, it's just a small matter this time, and it can be dealt with in two or three days. If you encounter danger, write to me, and I will be there in a minute or two."

…

After Mr. Ards left, before Klein asked, Dunn said in a deep voice:

"Apart from finding clues about Palenque Tasib this time, we have nothing else to gain. As for what Mr. Azik remembered..."

Having said that, he sighed. Klein also understands this, but who can know it except Mr. Azik himself?

After a moment of silence, the two began to discuss the plan to investigate Ince Zangwill with a map in hand.

"...I think we should start with Uttar Pradesh." Dunn pointed to the position on the map, "Let's not say that the conflict between the 'Undead King' and the Pirate General is likely to be in the nearby sea, and it is not far from Intis' colony." It’s not far away. The scope of the investigation before Mister Azik and I was there, and there are quite a few Extraordinary people in the ‘Hunter’ path.”

Uttar Pradesh is located in the west of the northern part of the southern continent, and on the east side is the colony of Intis, where there is the famous Kaiser Port. but

"As for Tony Twain, no matter what he is, he is a Sequence 3 'War Bishop'. Even without the help of the army, he will not be easily solved. The real target of the evil spirit of the 'Red Angel' may not be him."

After careful discussion, the peculiarities of Uttar Pradesh became the most suitable location for the investigation.

"...But before I go, I need to find a 'Secret Puppet' first."

Klein pinched the corners of his eyes, feeling a little helpless. A "Secret Puppet Master" has no marionette, so the fighting power can be imagined. He also didn't want to look for it in Uttar Pradesh, where the Extraordinary who appeared there might be involved in problems, and he didn't want to accidentally offend a demigod like Anderson.

As for the preliminary intelligence gathering, Danitz can just go there, he is near Uttar Pradesh, he only has Sequence 7, and he will not attract the attention of the "Red Angel" evil spirit.

"'Secret Puppet'?" Dunn thought for a while, then straightened his back, "I have a suitable target, he is a member of the Rose School of Thought, Mr. Azik said he was a 'winner'. At that time we The target was not him, but he sensed it and ran away first, but he should still be nearby."

"Winner"? but

Klein's eyes lit up. This is a good target. He should have defected from the Life School, so he should help Will Auceptin clean up the house. In other words, He should be born soon, so let's treat it as a birth gift!

Just as he was about to nod, illusory and overlapping prayers came from his ears.

man's voice?

Is it Mister "Emperor"?

Klein's heart tightened, he clutched his stomach and said:

"Okay, Captain, please help me investigate first, I need to go to the bathroom now."

After finishing speaking, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com rushed into the bathroom beside him and closed the door. but

Dunn froze for a moment, and said to Klein in the bathroom:

"Then I'll go first."

After a low, painful response, he shook his head, his figure became transparent, and disappeared into the room.

…

Above the gray mist, Klein sat on the long bronze table and looked at the crimson star that was constantly expanding and shrinking.

It really is Mr. "Emperor"!

He first stretched out his hand to summon the "Scepter of the Sea God", and then put the "Tyrant" card into his spiritual body. Suddenly, an aura of extreme majesty and terror emanated from the position where The Fool was. A deep triple crown was added to Klein's head without a sound, and his clothes became religious robes. but

After gaining enough confidence, he turned his attention to Mr. "Emperor"'s prayer picture again and observed it carefully.
