Chapter 34 The actors are in place! ~Ask for a monthly ticket~)
Unchanging for thousands of years!
Night Owl Court!
Kuya searched for this name in his mind, but there was no impression at all.
However, she had no doubt.
The old man in front of her was obviously extraordinary. His aura of being in a high position was definitely not something ordinary people could fake. Likewise, the other party had no reason to lie to her.
Especially when you are close to collapse and need help.
Yes, just ask for help!
If Kuya still had doubts at first, then when the other party showed signs of collapse, Kuya completely dispelled such doubts.
Although the other party has not said the next words, after such a confession, he must ask for help!
Kuya is very sure about this.
As for the Night Owl Court?
It must be that she doesn't know because she doesn't have a high enough level within the organization, right?
Kuya thought this way, and then spoke very knowingly.
"Is there anything I can do to help you?"
Kuya asked.
"help?"
"I hope to survive by relying on the 'Holy Snake Society'."
"But... your level is not enough."
The old man wearing a dark brown linen robe said this.
really!
Kuya secretly thought that it was just as she expected, but her level was not enough.
"I can apply to the supervisor!"
Kuya emphasized.
"Supervisor of Ang City?"
"His level is not high enough either."
"At least I will wait for you for a day if you need the decision-makers at your headquarters. I only have one day. Those 'claws' are temporarily attracted by my arrangement, but it will definitely not last long."
"Tell the decision-makers at your headquarters that if you agree to protect me, I will tell them a secret."
The old man shook his head slightly.
"secret?"
"Okay, I understand."
Kuya frowned and finally nodded.
She was not naive enough to ask what the secret was. Since it was used to exchange lives, how could the other party tell her so simply?
However, she firmly believes that the headquarters of the ‘Holy Snake Society’ will know some clues!
Even...everything!
As a C-level member of the 'Holy Snake Society', Kuya has inexplicable confidence in the 'Holy Snake Society'.
"It's an honor to meet you."
"Where should I find you next?"
Kuya is ready to leave.
The information flooding her mind made her know that she didn't have any more time to stay here.
"Still here!"
The old man answered.
Then, he let out a chuckle.
"Here I am a puppet, a substitute."
"The real me has already left."
There was a hint of pride and a hint of victory in the laughter.
Kuya was startled and then reacted.
The most dangerous place is the safest place!
That information was deliberately revealed to those people by the other party!
The purpose is for the ‘Night Owl Court’ to discover this place, and use this place as a clue to chase the substitute arranged by the other party!
But the real him is here!
Wait for her here!
No!
It's not just her!
Organizations such as 'Shelters' and 'Temple' that are not inferior to the 'Holy Snake Society' are also acceptable.
It's just that she came here first.
One step ahead, every step ahead!
This secret belongs to our ‘Holy Snake Society’!
Kuya thought in her heart, bowed slightly to the old man, turned around and walked out of the tavern.
Click, click!
Behind him, the wine cabinet moved again, completely covering the room.
The door of the tavern also opened and closed.
call!
Jason in the room pulled off his heavy linen cloak and pulled himself out of the hole in the floor, then breathed a sigh of relief.
It is not difficult for Jason to pretend to be an old man.
Especially under the premise of this kind of advance arrangement, a floor-length robe can cover everything.
Including chairs, holes on the floor, and...his true body shape.
The hard part is how to 'cheat' Kuya.
Although the other party's performance was average before, Jason would never underestimate anyone, especially when that person was a woman and became a C-level member of the 'Holy Snake Society'.
The information obtained from Esther was enough to tell Jason that Kuya definitely did not obtain her current status because of her beauty.
The other party has a sharp mind and extremely outstanding abilities.
Therefore, it is quite difficult to convince the other party of something.
Therefore, Jason started planning from the first encounter in the park in the middle of the street.
The sudden appearance of mystery, the overwhelming power, the curiosity of the unknown identity, etc. are all elements in Jason's plan. He attracted Kuya here bit by bit.
Come to this 'Hephaestus' bar.
Only when she finds it herself can she believe it and think it is true.
This place was once a private property owned by a gang boss in Angcheng.
The other party refused to be Alas's friend, so Alas's friends united and killed him.
In the name of 'Hydra'!
The bartender just now is a core member of Hydra.
Likewise, it is also part of the layout.
Of course, these layouts are just the icing on the cake, the real core is now!
Jason looked down through the hole in the floor.
The gang leader who refuses to be kind is down there, and next to him is...a bomb.
The flame is bright.
It attracts people's attention.
It also hides the truth.
boom!
The huge roar pushed the air waves in all directions. Kuya, who had walked a certain distance, fell to the ground unprepared under the impact of the air waves.
Lying on the ground, she looked back in shock.
The ‘Hephaestus’ bar has already flown into the sky.
All that's left is billowing smoke and blazing flames.
Kuya stood up and ran towards the Hephaestus bar.
But just like what she just saw.
There is nothing here anymore.
There are only ruins!
The old man who held the secret was naturally dead!
With the secret that belongs to him, he can no longer speak.
"'Night Owl Court'?"
Kuya murmured in a low voice, with horror in his eyes.
She believed that the old man dared to stay here, so he had complete confidence.
But just like this, the other party was still smiling contentedly a moment ago, and now...
Looking at the ruins in front of him, Kuya felt shaken for the first time.
Even if the old man is not dead, can the 'Holy Snake Society' protect the other party?
As soon as such a thought appeared, Kuya shook his head repeatedly, trying to get it out of his mind.
However, the more you want to forget, the clearer your memory becomes.
Moreover, she recalled the sword in the park in the middle of the street.
‘Claw 13’!
If 13 is a numerical number and divided according to strength... wouldn't there be 12 more powerful people in front of 'Claw 13'?
Even if such power is limited, they still need to face 13 powerful guys similar to 'Claw 13'.
"no!"
"We must report again immediately!"
Thinking of this, Kuya turned around and left.
But at this time, people attracted by the explosion kept gathering around.
Kuya didn't hide from the crowd, that would have been too conspicuous.
She quietly blended into the crowd, and then moved away step by step.
"Why did the Hephaestus bar explode?"
“Isn’t this the territory of ‘Flying Jazz’?”
"'Flying Jazz'?"
"Of course it's the territory of 'Flying Sir'. Didn't you see him flying into the sky?"
Such conversations were subconsciously collected by Kuya, who was gradually moving away.
This is the instinct of being a C-level person.
‘Flying Jazz’?
Is that the old man's nickname?
Kuya thought.
"For someone as powerful as 'Flying Sir' to die in such an unexplained way, this world is really scary."
In the crowd, middle-aged people who obviously belonged to gangs couldn't help but sigh.
"The power of 'Flying Sir' is far beyond your imagination. What we see is only one percent of his industry. His real industry has already spread across various industries in Angcheng!"
A man in a cloak standing next to the other party suddenly spoke.
"You're bragging!"
Suddenly, people around him began to refute.
"If 'Flying Sir' was so powerful, he would have unified the city long ago."
The middle-aged man who spoke first spoke even more.
"Who said he didn't unify Angcheng?"
The man in the cloak asked rhetorically.
"Then he will still die in an unknown way?"
The middle-aged man became more and more disdainful.
"Of course it's because he got into trouble with a more powerful being."
The man in the cloak said with certainty.
But no one around believed such words.
However, Kuya is definitely not included among these people.
Kuya, who was about to leave the crowd, couldn't help but look at the man in the cloak, but the man was wearing a cloak, obviously to cover himself, and Kuya couldn't see the other person's appearance at all.
Kuya wanted to take off the other person's cloak and see what the other person looked like.
And there are obviously people who hold the same idea as Kuya.
A tall, thin man with a sinister face walked into the crowd with his arms crossed.
Although he is tall and thin, his opponent is quite powerful, and the people gathered around him cannot stop him.
The people who were squeezed away immediately glared at the tall and thin man, but when they saw the sinister face clearly, they all shrank their necks and did not dare to speak.
‘Vulture’!
This is the nickname of the other party. No one knows what his real name is. They only know that two days ago, the other party appeared in the area of Angcheng and used brutal methods to control a small organization to work for him.
Although he didn't do anything extraordinary after that, those hanging corpses had already made the other party notorious, and he was listed as one of the people who should not be messed with in this area where civilians and poor people were mixed.
The 'Vulture' continues to move forward.
At this time, those who had already spotted the ‘vulture’ immediately got out of the way.
The crowd split into two, a straight passage appeared, and a smile appeared on the sinister face of the 'Vulture'.
He walked straight up to the man in the hood.
"You seem to know a lot of things, I really want to know."
"tell me."
'Vulture' said in a condescending tone.
The man in the cloak seemed timid and took a step back.
"hurry up!"
"My patience is..."
The 'Vulture' continued to threaten the people in front of him, with a ferocious look in his eyes. He planned to use the method he was most familiar with to get everything he wanted.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt a huge force grabbing his head.
