Mystery: Those years when I was a foreign aid for the Aurora Club

Chapter 6

Disconnected.

Sent to Tingen, the team in charge of the drop has lost contact.

When I got this news, I was staying in the underground church in the stronghold of the Aurora Order in Backlund.Except for the occasional one or two people who come to pray and suddenly explode into pieces of meat, it is quiet enough for me to write.The listener knelt on the ground and reported to me, his body trembling violently, as if he was about to collapse into a pool of flesh and blood in front of me.

I didn't respond right away. I finished the next line with a classical quill pen and filled in a period rigorously. Then I put down the manuscript paper and pad on my knees, and turned my face to him:
"What happened?"

From his confusing answers, I pieced together the general process: First of all, I know that this divine descent is actually a cover-up. The requirements for using a human female as a mother to conceive the offspring of a god are extremely high, and it is very difficult to complete the ceremony.So the Son of God is actually a smoke bomb, and the real container is the members in charge of the ceremony.They knew nothing, but they must have been flattered by it, so none of us said anything.

Of course, for me, smoke bombs and backhands are the same, and it would be best if the Son of God comes and can succeed in one go.

But now, a problem arises.

The two members who carried out the ceremony were missing, and there was no reply for three days, and they were probably dead.And Z who is in charge of this matter has not sent a report or asked for help so far, which is unreasonable.

This is also my relapse.Strange, I should have been "watching" there all the time, but at some point I withdrew my gaze, because I thought it was impossible for this divine descent to fail.Why?What is it that affects me?
I recited the honorable name of my ally and listened attentively. The chaotic words rushed into my mind with the knowledge of the danger of corruption enough to cause the low-sequence explosion of ordinary people and the path of shepherds to explode in an instant.I deftly isolate them and throw them into the filthy abyss of my consciousness.Thinking of those traces of distorted fate, I pondered for a while, and confirmed that there was really something terrible hidden in that small city. Then, according to the previous failure experience of God's Arrival, this thing is likely to be... Adam .

"—Understood, you step back."

After a moment of silence, I said to the listener who was still trembling slightly: "Go tell the administrator of the sealed item that I want to withdraw an Extraordinary item from the "apprentice" path, at least Sequence Five. "

20
After about 10 minutes, I got the sealed item I wanted.An item that meets my requirements and corresponds to the "Traveler" sequence, in the form of an emerald ring.It does not have the characteristic of being alive, and it can be teleported at very short intervals. The negative effect is that it will have a strong aggregation ability when worn, and it is impossible to accurately locate the destination. Quite a lot.

Crying blood, longing for reunion... I know in my heart that this is most likely the certificate of surrender brought by the "Holy One of Secrets" or Mr. X when they came to surrender, and it comes from the Abraham family who were betrayed by them.

abraham.I remember that Mr. Men is still in the hands of the Mother God.

And Roselle, although I also polluted Him quietly, but the little pollution I concealed is hard to beat the fallen goddess who has never restrained her feet.Seeing Roselle being swallowed by the red moon, I can only sigh in relief.I secretly hinted to him the coordinates of my body and hinted him to go there, but this guy always played his cards unreasonably, and went straight to the moon, becoming a prop in the hands of others.

If it falls into my hands, it will fall into eternal numbness and chaos at best, and the mother goddess is not as kind as I am.

it is good.So go to Tingen now and see what's going on.I put the ring on my hand, imbued with spirituality,—indeed, I can't clearly imagine the destination in my mind.So I chose a random location, opened a blue "door" in the air, and stepped in.

My field of vision suddenly changed, and I came to a not-so-wide street, surrounded by low-rise houses, with waste water flowing on the street, and corpses and garbage piled up in the corners.This is the East End, where despair breeds.There is no one around, I roughly estimated the distance and spirituality, and prepared to continue to open the door and leave here.Suddenly, there was a spiritual fluctuation in the alley ahead, a light door opened out of thin air, and a figure I was familiar with ran out in a panic.

"What's going on here?!" Miss Fors Wall yelled in despair, "We are still in the East District, why are we only two streets away?!"

A petite woman came out of the door together with her. She was holding a handful of triangular thorns in her hand. Staring in that direction, the body stiffened into a rock.

"It's over." The little woman squeezed the words through her teeth, "He saw us, and Qilingos and I met our eyes."

Miss Fors's face turned pale in an instant, and she lost all blood. She looked at the bracelet on her wrist with only two stones left, and was about to pull it off—then she saw me.Her expression flashed with astonishment, fear, and struggle, and she blurted out: "Why are you here?"

This aggregation also came too fast.My eyes swept over the bracelet on her wrist, and I knew it clearly.Then he smiled and asked like an ordinary person who just happened to pass by and knew nothing about the upcoming danger:

"Good afternoon, Miss Wall, and that unknown lady. I'm collecting inspiration in the East End, can I invite you to afternoon tea?"

Forsi's pupils instantly shrank to the size of a pinprick, and she didn't have time to explain, how would she explain the horror of the Extraordinary world to an old-fashioned gentleman who lived a normal and peaceful life?She gritted her teeth, pulled off one of the last two stones on the bracelet, and shouted, "Come here!"

"Trust me, Mr. Vaughan!" She said at the fastest speed in her life, "I'll explain it to you afterwards, and follow us now!"

Judging from the puzzled expression on his face, Mr. Edward seemed to be out of the situation, but he still walked towards them quickly.The distance between them is only four or five meters, which can be reached by an adult within a few steps. Forsi didn't care about her distress, only the last stone was left, and opened the door against time, but at this moment, she was already tense. The extreme Xio suddenly exclaimed, turned around abruptly, and pushed her towards the door that was not yet fully formed.

"You go first!" The expression of the little arbitrator was Forsi's never-before-seen determination, "Qilingus has come!"

Fors stared at the sky in disbelief, and she found that Edward, who was only two steps away from them, also raised his head and looked in that direction.She saw the scene that made her blood freeze instantly. The cruel and murderous pirate general stepped on the window sill, using the ability of "Wind Blessed", gliding towards them like a big bird!There was a bloodthirsty smile on his face, his body was light and vigorous, like an eagle preying on prey, like a vulture swooping down, watching them dying with contempt from above, his eyes full of ecstasy determined to win.

"Forsi, let's go!"

"No, no! Hugh, you and I—"

Forsi's legs were uncontrollable in fear, her thoughts seemed to be stagnant, her fingers clenched Xio's clothes, trying to pull her into the door together.At this moment, she felt her body soaring into the air, and before she had time to be confused, she saw Hugh also leaving the ground with both feet, and saw Edward Vaughan who had come to them holding the back collar of the other in one hand , Throwing them together into the newly completed door with incredible strength.

"...Wait!" Falling into the brightly colored tunnel, Forsi's brain that had stopped spinning started to work again. She saw the figure of Qilingus gliding in the gap behind Edward Vaughn. , but she could do nothing but cry out in despair:
"Don't! Wo—"

Qilingos could see clearly that the woman was not a "traveler", but possessed an Extraordinary item of the traveler sequence.Although there was one last stone, it was enough for him to complete the planned murder and escape calmly.

He licked his lips, and the bloodthirsty and crazy smile on his face widened further, and he had already seen the scene of torturing those two people and tearing them apart.

With the help of the wind, he crossed the distance of two streets and alleys in just a few seconds, and came directly in front of that door.Qilingus stretched out his hand, decided to feed the middle-aged man who hindered his plan to "Squirming Hunger", and then calmly snatched the magical item.But at this moment, his spiritual intuition suddenly issued a shocking warning, and then fell into dead silence the next second.Chillingus was amazed, the hand on which he wore the Creeping Hunger was less than an inch from the gentleman's back.

The gentleman turned around slowly.

Qilingus suddenly couldn't move.

How is this going? !The pirate general turned pale with shock: the distance of this inch and the time of less than a second seemed to be infinitely stretched, but this man who had never been in his eyes did not change at all.

"If you die here, Miss Wall and her companions will definitely suspect me. ... However, you look good."

"I have work to do, and you interrupted me."

Edward Vaughan watched him calmly, without sarcasm or contempt.His irises and pupils are black, looking hazy and without light, accurately reflecting Qilingus' frightened expression.He stands upright and elegant, with his chest up and his head up, and walks slowly and proudly, like a well-designed and meticulous doll.His eyes stayed on Qilingos's "creeping hunger" for a second, and then fell silent, as if he had a short thought, and a terrifying lava-like light flowed from the depths of his pupils.He raised his cane, and tapped Qilingos' chest with the gem-studded tip.

"roll."

Blasphemy from the abyss spewed from His mouth.

As soon as the words fell, Qilingus felt as if he had been hit hard in an instant. His sternum was sunken in one piece, and the bones all over his body made teeth-stinging twisting and cracking sounds.His face turned blood red in an instant, blood overflowed from the gap between his teeth, his skin was cracked, his limbs were crooked, and the broken flesh and blood instantly soaked through his clothes.Then, as if he had been hit head-on by a battering ram with all its strength, he was sent flying heavily like a cannonball, crashing into the roof of a dilapidated bell tower several hundred meters away, and a thick cloud of smoke and dust rose up.

Edward Vaughn turned his back, and the flow of sensory time returned to normal. He stepped into the brightly colored tunnel in front of him, and the blue door gradually closed behind him, just blocking the scene where Qilingus flew out.At this moment, Miss Fors' short "Mr. Vaughn" has not reached the second word.Then, her unspoken words stuck in her throat, and she watched in disbelief as the other party entered the door with all four limbs intact in the last half a second after protecting the two of them.

"That's great, that's great..." She wanted to cry but couldn't help but tremble because of the fact that the elder almost lost her life because of her.

"Don't be afraid, two ladies, we are safe now." Edward comforted them softly, with a look of rejoicing on his face, "It is a gentleman's responsibility to protect women and children, and we are all fine."

"...So, now, come to my house, have a cup of tea, and explain to me what's going on?"
