Chapter 43: Extreme Operation Esther~Ask for a Monthly Pass~)
Looking at the words on the wall, the people who rushed into the fighting gym looked at each other in shock.
The previous appearance of ‘Claw 13’ has already shocked people.
And now the "Claw 11" can no longer be described as shocking, but shocking!
You know, that's the 'Sword Master' Divano!
At this moment, it was burned to ashes. So... how strong is 'Claw 11'?
hiss!
Everyone took a deep breath as they thought about it.
The people from the 'Temple' were the first to evacuate.
They are going back to report the news.
Then came the ‘Asylum’ and ‘Holy Snake Society’.
Finally, there are the lone rangers, small organizations, and some local small groups who are attracted.
When these people left, they were almost respectful. They even cleaned up any extra footprints on the ground. When the last one went out, he even closed the door.
The ‘Sword Master’ is an existence that is beyond their reach.
And the 'Claw 11', which can defeat the 'Sword Master' and burn all living things, makes them unable to resist from the bottom of their hearts.
Not to mention that ‘Claw 11’ is not a person.
‘Night Owl Court’!
An organization hidden in Angcheng for thousands of years!
Just thinking about it scares them.
At the same time, a doubt appeared in their hearts.
Why does a thousand-year-old organization like the ‘Night Owl Court’ only exist in Ang City and not expand its power?
…
"Old rules of course!"
"The 'Night Owl Court' ensures the operation of Ang City and maintains the balance of Ang City."
"So, they will not leave Angcheng."
Facing the inquiry from her colleagues, Kuya said matter-of-factly.
Sicotte and Lessius didn't believe this at all.
How could an organization with an extremely powerful person like Claw 11 be trapped in a small city?
unless……
"They can't leave Angcheng!"
Sicott and Lessius looked at each other.
Such thoughts appeared in their hearts at the same time, and then they looked at their supervisor.
At this moment, Harrow happened to cast his gaze.
After the three of them looked at each other, the older Cicotte said:
“The ‘Night Owl Court’ cannot leave Ang City!”
"One thing, Kuya is right about the ancient rules!"
Sicotte looked at Kuya as he spoke. He showed a wise smile and said slowly: "A long time ago, certain things could be called ancient rules!"
"For example……"
"contract!"
contract?!
The four people in the office were stunned for a moment, and then they all suddenly understood.
Even Kuya is no exception.
Although she is firmly on the side of 'Claw 13', doubts still exist in her heart.
And now, Cicotte explains it very well.
The contract made by the founder of the 'Night Owl Court', or the contract signed with certain entities, made all the members of the 'Night Owl Court' powerful, mysterious, and unknown, but they were unable to leave Ang City.
‘Claw 13’ is also like this, right?
Does he often feel such helplessness when walking alone in the dark?
Will he also have moments of sadness?
Is his face hidden behind the mask also filled with sadness?
Kuya's eye circles turned slightly red as she thought about it.
Looking at this appearance, Kuya, Harrow, Sicott, and Lessius frowned together.
However, the three of them sighed immediately and said nothing.
Women are always so emotional!
This is also the reason why there are very few women in the ‘Holy Snake Society’.
This is true for other organizations as well.
Because once the poison called ‘love’ appears, no matter how smart and capable a woman is, she will become dull.
Of course, the same goes for men.
It's just that most of the time, the latter doesn't admit it.
Men, good face.
"I'm going to draft a report."
"You go and investigate the history of Angcheng."
"I want to know the detailed history of Angcheng."
Harrow said.
"knew."
Sicott, Lessius answered lazily.
Although he was shocked by the 'Sword Master' just now, the death of the 'Sword Master' was tantamount to relieving the crisis in the entire Ang City.
As one of the high-end combat forces of the "Temple" died in Angcheng like this, the "Temple" will naturally not give up, but that will happen later, now?
What the 'Temple' needs to do well is how to make up for the lack of this high-end combat power.
After all, those who stare at the 'Temple' are quite talkative.
To put it simply, the other party will no longer pay attention to Angcheng in the short term.
"I can keep playing clubs!"
"I can continue playing at home!"
Sicott, Lessius thought in unison.
Then, the two stood up and strode outside.
As for the survey data?
Naturally, it was left to D-class personnel.
As C-level people, they have more important things to accomplish.
“It’s tea time!”
Cicotte was smiling and in good spirits.
"Wolves, time to kill!"
Lessius clenched a fist with one hand, showing high fighting spirit.
…
"Win?!"
Edmund was stunned when he heard the news reported by his men.
He knows what the ‘Night Owl Court’ is all about.
Including him, there were only four people in total.
When he just felt the aura of the 'Sword Master', he was already prepared for the worst.
But now it's Jason who wins!
To be able to defeat the 'Sword Master'...
Jason, how strong is your strength?
Edmond guessed that he wished he could run back to the secret base right now and ask Jason what was going on, but as the director of the 'shelter', he knew what was most important now.
Write a report!
He will write down everything that happened today in a "detailed" and "objective" way.
certainly……
And that bastard!
Edmon gritted his teeth with hatred when he thought of the bastard on the other end of the phone just now.
He knew very well that the other party did it on purpose.
The other party should have been by the phone after Sean set off.
However, the other party probably did not expect that Sean would be killed by 'Claw 13'.
I would never have thought that ‘Claw 11’ could kill ‘Juggernaut’ Divano.
"In this case..."
"I will give you another big gift."
Edmon took a deep breath and made a decision that he had not made for a long time.
He couldn't make up his mind before because he knew that doing so would inevitably cause an earthquake inside the 'shelter'.
And now he has made up his mind because there are too many people around him, including Esther, Master Jason, Sir Alas and six bastards including Warren, Quick, Clive, Edwin, Jones, and Rodney.
His family all needs him to take care of them.
He can no longer just eat and wait to die like before.
He didn't care about his own life, but he couldn't watch the people around him die.
"There seems to be something wrong."
"Isn't it for salted fish?"
"Why are you getting busier and busier?"
With this question in mind, Edmund began to write a report.
…
After the sacred mountain disappeared into the mushroom cloud, the headquarters of the 'Temple' became a secret.
In fact, except for a very small number of people, no one knows where the 'temple' is.
This is a decision made by the contemporary pope.
After an unexpected raid, the pope, twelve archbishops, forty-eight district bishops and three hundred knights were all killed. The 'temple', which was once flourishing, became in decline and naturally needed changes before it could continue.
Survive.
Thirty years later, this decline still exists.
The Pope exists, but it is only an 'honorary position'.
Not to mention the original Pope's ability to communicate with the gods, he could not even perceive the existence of the gods.
After all, thirty years ago, he was just a candidate for the district bishop of the Temple.
Moreover, he is still the worst among the candidates.
It is precisely because of this that he survived.
Because he is not qualified to climb the sacred mountain.
He didn't know exactly what happened on the sacred mountain, but he saw the dazzling light and the dazzling mushroom cloud.
Therefore, when he became the pope, he immediately moved the 'temple' to a secret place underground.
In the splendid hall, Hawthorn, who was sitting in the Pope's seat, was no longer young. He had gray hair and a stooped body that even a white robe could not hide, and there was a deep look on his face.
Feeling of tiredness.
Without divine guidance, he felt confused.
It's like being in a fog and not knowing where to go.
Especially when he learned of the death of his old friend Divano, his confusion deepened.
"Let's start the ceremony."
"The 'Temple' cannot exist without the 'Sword Master'."
After listening to his subordinate's report, Hawthorn waved his hand.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After reporting, he bowed deeply and then walked directly to the side hall. In the side hall of the lobby, a tall, strong young man wearing armor stood in a complicated spell.
The ceremony was prepared when the death of 'Sword Master' Divano was confirmed.
"You will inherit everything from Master Divano, and you will become the new sword master of the 'Temple', but the whole process will be painful, and you must endure it."
The papal minister said to the young man.
"I will finish it to the death!"
The young man who was chosen from thousands of people and had absolute loyalty to the 'Temple' spoke loudly and forcefully.
After the Pope's ministers nodded slightly, a low incantation sounded.
The complicated spells on the ground began to light up.
A unique wave appeared within the technique.
As if being attracted, the white light that appeared on Divano's body appeared inside the technique, floating slowly.
Then, it slowly integrated into the young man's body.
As soon as they made contact, the young man with a determined face fell to the ground in pain, and a slightly familiar aura appeared on this young man's body.
This did not surprise the papal minister.
This ceremony is originally a 'resurrection' ceremony.
A special secret technique developed by His Majesty the current Pope based on various secret techniques of the 'Temple' because all the high-end combat power of the 'Temple' was lost.
Different from the half-baked secret techniques that were awarded to the 'Faceless Men' legion, this special secret technique can give the master a chance to 'resurrection' if the opportunity is fully arranged.
It's just that the prerequisites for this special secret technique are too harsh, the price is too high, and it requires extremely high talents. In the entire 'Temple', there are no more than five people who can learn this secret technique, and only one who can truly master it can
There are only two people, the Pope and the 'Sword Master' Divano.
The white light became more and more intense.
The aura of Divano is getting stronger and stronger in the young man.
Even when the Pope's ministers closed their eyes, they felt as if they were standing next to the 'Sword Master'.
A smile appeared on the face of the papal minister.
After changing into a younger body with full potential, Lord 'Sword Master' will definitely become more powerful after only a short period of adaptation.
At that time, no enemy will be killed by the 'Sword Master'.
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred
"It's him!"
"It's him!"
"It's that monster!"
"He is in Angcheng!"
"He's not dead!"
A miserable cry came from the young man's mouth, but the voice belonged to Divano.
Then, the Pope's ministers had not yet come to their senses.
Bang!
The young man's body exploded directly.
The aura belonging to Divano disappeared directly.
The papal minister, whose face was spattered with blood, was stunned on the spot.
Failed?
How could it fail?
The Pope's ministers thought in disbelief.
Then, without even bothering to wipe the blood off his face, he went to report to the Pope.
The moment the roar appeared, the contemporary pope knew that a change that he was unaware of had occurred.
As he listened to his subordinate's report, the aura around his body became more and more silent.
But the light in his eyes was so bright that people dared not look directly at him.
A dangerous and ferocious atmosphere kept hovering in the lobby.
Everyone in the lobby started to tremble.
"Ang City?"
"'Mask Man'?"
"'Night Owl Court'?"
The contemporary pope keeps chanting in a low voice, and the sound is like a terrifying monster roaring and roaring.
…
In a temporarily rented apartment near the 'Holy Snake Society', a joint important meeting of the 'Brotherhood', 'Hydra', 'Taotie Society', and 'Night Owl Court' is being held.
Jason and Alas sat on one side, and Esther sat on the opposite side.
At this time, Esther was confidently explaining to Jason the purpose of the writing on the wall.
"powerful!"
"More powerful!"
"With such power, all the unreasonable aspects of the 'Night Owl Court' will become reasonable."
"They're going to second-guess the age-old rules we threw out before."
“I will also read the history of Angcheng.”
"but!"
Speaking of this, Esther emphasized her pronunciation and showed a proud smile.
However, after seeing Jason's urging eyes, Esther immediately said: "However, Ang City was only built a hundred years ago, and the detailed written records were only recorded at the beginning of the new century. The previous historical records are very
Not to mention the ambiguity, and there are still many faults, which is good news for us."
"You can let those people do what they want."
"In order for our organization to exist reasonably, I have done enough homework!"
Esther gave a thumbs up and flashed a smile.
However, neither Jason nor Alas looked at him again.
Instead, he looked at the door of the bedroom next to him.
Divano was standing there with a confused look on his face, looking at Jason and Alas, he asked blankly: "Hello, did you save me? Thank you."
It seems that because he just woke up, Divano's speech is still a little unclear.
While Jason was still thinking about how to respond, Esther had already stood up and rushed to Diwano, fell to his knees with a plop, hugged Diwano's legs, and shouted sincerely.
