Chapter 251: Dark Son
Chapter 251: Dark Son
It just so happened that Klein's perverted spiritual intuition made him feel the familiar malice, so he opened fire, sending all the bullets into the "Apostle of Desire"'s head while he was still dazed.
"Coincidence! What a coincidence! Who wrote a third-rate story!" Klein's Adam's apple rolled and he pretended to be calm.
"..." Leonard's face next to Klein was a little distorted, and he nodded subconsciously as he looked at the demon that was already dead.
The devil has now returned to his human form, but the iconic devil horns and devil patterns are still there, which doesn't look like a good person.
And it wasn't like they didn't hear the screams and fighting in the ballroom.
"That's it?" Klein put away the revolver in his hand.
"What can I do if I'm beaten to death by you?" Leonard complained.
Before he could react, Klein had already emptied the magazine. It was a spiritual intuition like instinct.
"Did you kill the assassin?!" Duke Negan's bodyguards all chased him out and saw the assassin whose head was about to explode.
They looked at Klein and Leonard in surprise.
No one understands the power of this assassin better than them. It is a Sequence Five that can defeat several of their Beyonders!
"It's me." Klein controlled his facial expression and nodded calmly. He was already very skilled at pretending to be an expert.
"Very good," said the bodyguard of the "Wind Blessed One", "We want to take away his body. You guys have no objections, right?"
Klein and Leonard glanced at the bodyguard and confirmed his hair color. He was from the Church of Storms. No wonder he spoke so hastily.
So they didn't care about this person anymore.
"Thank you two gentlemen for your help!" Another bodyguard saluted and thanked him, "We need to take this assassin away. Is it convenient?"
"Don't worry, Duke Negan will pay you enough!"
"Okay!" Klein knew what they wanted to do, and it was nothing more than channeling information to obtain information, so he didn't refuse.
"Thank you!" Soon, an extraordinary person who was proficient in divination and channeling arrived and conducted a channeling on the spot to ask for information.
"This is... the trend of the times!" The faint murmur seemed to come from hell.
Klein had already been politely asked to leave, and he only had time to hear half of the sentence.
However, what he needs to face is not this, but those nobles.
Naturally, no one would know that such a big thing happened at the banquet.
The balcony on the second floor of the ballroom was already crowded with nobles, all of whom were paying attention.
The focus is naturally the "hero" who killed the assassin.
"That's the gentleman who killed Duke Negan's assassin!"
All the nobles looked at the smiling Klein with eager eyes.
Such a strong man deserves the attention and wooing of all nobles!
Leonard sensed something was wrong and took a step back, lowering his head and hiding in Klein's back.
"It's the gentleman who is following the Bishop. He is indeed a powerful Beyonder!" Audrey Hall was also looking at this place, her eyes shining with stars.
"Damn it, aren't we going to be a secret agent? Why has it developed to this point?"
Klein said in a voice that only he and Leonard could hear, gritting his teeth.
How could Anzi be surrounded by people in such a bright light? !
"Who said that the person standing in the light is not a 'shadow'?" Truman appeared beside Klein and Leonard at some point, and gently patted Klein on the shoulder to let him relax.
"But how will we carry out our future work?" The theory of "dark particles in the light" left Klein unable to refute.
"Hiss!" Klein quickly realized something, "Did Bishop Truman kill him?"
How could a powerful extraordinary person who dared to assassinate the Duke be killed by his gun? It must have been Bishop Truman who did it!
In Klein's perception, Truman has always been a high-sequence extraordinary person!
"You are the hero today, and there is no need to worry, they will not remember your face, this is 'secret'."
Truman chuckled and walked into the hall with Klein and Leonard facing the eyes of the crowd.
"Thank you sir for killing the assassin!" Duke Negan has now barely recovered, with some joy in the aftermath of the disaster.
"Thank you to the Church of the Night for your help this time!" Duke Negan solemnly bowed to Truman and thanked him.
He also knew who saved him when he was on the verge of death.
At that time, he really felt that death was waving at him, and the Storm Lord could not protect him.
At the banquet, only this archbishop had such ability. At that time, suddenly inviting these new archbishops to the banquet on a whim was definitely the wisest decision he made in his life!
"Yeah." Truman nodded slightly.
"To express my gratitude, I am willing to donate a manor worth twenty thousand pounds to the Church of the Night."
This is the best way to thank him, because Duke Negan believes in the Storm Lord, not the Night Goddess.
He cannot get too close to the Church of Night.
Hmm... It is said to be donated to the Church of the Night, but under Duke Negan's control, it will probably fall into Truman's hands.
Truman nodded calmly.
"Sir, to express my gratitude, I will offer you a reward of 3,000 gold pounds."
"Huh?!" Klein couldn't hold himself any longer, and his facial expression lost control for the first time.
It's just that Duke Negan didn't have time to talk to Klein. He quickly said goodbye and left, leaving a stunned Klein.
"Gu!" Klein was knocked unconscious by the sky-high reward.
"...Bishop, I only fired six shots." Klein knew that he was able to kill the assassin entirely because of Bishop Truman's power.
This money...he can't take it!
"Use it to fund your activities." Truman waved his hand nonchalantly.
"Oh, by the way, I just remembered that after seeing the Beyonder of the 'Devil' path, your mission may have one more target."
"'Devil's path to Extraordinary?" Klein blinked and asked.
"No, it's the Blood Worship Cult and the Demon Family."
Both Klein and Leonard's hearts beat a beat faster unconsciously. Why do they feel that each of their investigation targets is more terrifying than the last!
The Witch Sect, the Blood Worship Cult and the Demon Family are the two largest evil sects.
An assassination incident occurred at the banquet, so the banquet could not continue. Klein and the two were sent back to the small villa by carriage.
Both of them stared blankly at a check on the table with a "huge" amount written on it.
"Is this our activity fund?" Leonard asked.
Klein nodded numbly. He had never done such a wealthy task in his life!
