Volume 1: The Gate of Flesh and Blood Chapter 111 Four Wins
With the sword at his neck, Pentel was not nervous at all.
Instead, the collector smiled.
"Mr. Zachary, if this is a joke, I can pretend it never happened."
The other party said so.
"yes."
"Of course you can pretend nothing happened. After all, there are at least two snipers aiming at me."
"Once I put down my sword..."
"He will be shot in the head right away, right?"
As Zachli said this, he moved sideways and stuck behind Pentel, holding him hostage and hiding behind the bronze cannon.
And at this moment——
Boom, boom, boom!
The sound of explosions could be heard faintly .
The ground was shaking slightly.
"The armed team from before!"
Goethe instantly understood who Zachli was.
A hidden chess piece that cooperates inside and outside.
The opponent trapped Pentel.
Then the armed forces outside broke into the manor.
As for why such a thing happened when he came?
It's definitely not because he is a disaster or something like that.
It's simply because of the design of the person behind the scenes.
At this moment, the visitor shouted at Goethe.
"Goethe Winchester, I have no ill will towards you."
"I'm only here for Pentel."
"So, just stand in the corner and be quiet."
Faced with such words, Goethe cooperated very well, raised his hands and walked to the corner.
"Mr. Winchester was very cooperative."
"I hope you can cooperate with me, Mr. Pentel... eh!"
puff!
Zachli stopped talking suddenly before he finished, as if a mouthful of thick phlegm was stuck in his throat. Then, Goethe saw that Zachli, with his throat cut, tilted his body and fell to the ground.
And Pentel stood up.
The other person was holding a small knife in his hand and his body was covered in blood.
He looked at the blood on his body with some helplessness.
The collector sighed.
"Don't worry, Mr. Goethe Winchester, there was a little accident."
The collector walked towards Goethe as he spoke.
There was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
There was no doubt that the other side was preparing to kill Goethe.
Pentel knew very well some of his own affairs. Even though he had been trying to clear himself up over the years, he could never be completely clean. Especially after the death of his "close friend" the city councilor a while ago, things became even more troublesome.
He lacked allies.
An ally who protects him from the worst.
Just as he would provide some help to that ally from time to time.
"You told Barry about the 'Blood Crow', right?"
“I don’t know what it was, but my close friend was very unhappy at the time.”
"He wanted someone to get rid of you, and I was that person - of course, with his death, the matter was shelved indefinitely."
"But fate is so strange."
"You appeared in front of me again, and happened to encounter such a thing."
As the other party said this, the two snipers hidden in the ceiling appeared openly.
Two guns were pointed at Goethe, who shook his head and sighed.
"I need to solve the current trouble faster."
"Then, evacuate here quickly."
"So, I'm sorry!"
After saying that, the other party was ready to take action.
Goethe smiled and said slowly:
"It's okay, just be more careful in your next life"
Pentel was stunned.
Before the collector and the two snipers beside him could react, they felt that Goethe's eyes became unusually deep, and they were unconsciously drawn into it.
When they woke up, they were standing in a wilderness.
Then……
hold head high!
A huge figure flew over their heads.
The scorching flames burned their bodies.
Severe pain.
fear.
When they all came together, there was only one thought left!
Dragon!
The hallucination disappeared as the three people fell to the ground and became unconscious.
When facing someone who has no [heart], [Desperate Gaze] is so useful.
Goethe raised his hand and pulled out a pistol from a sniper's waist, then fired several shots at the three people on the ground.
Now that you have said it, let the other person be more careful in the next life.
As a man, Goethe naturally did what he said.
After confirming that all three were dead, Goethe did not leave immediately, but instead searched the entire collection to see if there was any escaped [Bloody Honor].
As for the battle on the ground?
He is not worried.
[Spirit of the Raven] helps him keep an eye on the entire scene.
He keeps abreast of all developments at all times.
At the same time, Goethe also understood what the mastermind behind the scenes wanted to do.
The question is simply how he would face modern firearms without the 'Crow'.
"The 'secret realm' before us is even more desolate than I imagined."
"Whether it's a superhuman or an ordinary person, guns have long become deadly weapons."
Except for the fool whose brain was dominated by the "power" before, the extraordinary people in the "secret realm" in front of them had already hidden themselves. They were no longer the masters of the world, nor could they become advisors to those in power. They could only survive in the corner.
But even so, their special powers still make them feel superior!
Even, fighting openly and secretly!
Goethe would never forget how he was targeted.
Because, 'his' adoptive father Winchester!
Although he didn't know what his adoptive father had done, Goethe understood that his adoptive father was most likely an extraordinary person - an extraordinary person who used the identity of a "folklorist" as a cover.
He should be very powerful, otherwise it would be impossible for those who have grudges against him to wait until his adoptive father disappeared before they dared to make a move.
Even, continuous layout.
No one dared to show up until the last moment.
Just like at this moment, what if he died?
That would naturally be the end of it all.
What if he didn't die?
That will target the layout again.
Therefore, under this premise, the bodies of Pentel and the two snipers became important targets of investigation by the other party.
Thinking of this, Goethe narrowed his eyes.
He doesn't like to be the passive target all the time.
He prefers to take the initiative.
But that's for later.
Now?
The natural thing is to look for the [Bloody Honor] that may have been missed!
And the end result is delightful.
Goethe had a harvest on an extremely long spear.
[Assassin's Spear: The most important thing for an assassin is caution and patience. You may not have superb martial arts skills, and you may not know the formula of poison, but you cannot be without caution and patience, otherwise you will become a guard with an arrow in the knee. Its holder has far more caution, patience and... endurance than ordinary people! Lurk in the castle, waiting for the descendants of "George" to go to the toilet, and stab upwards with the spear in hand...]
[Get Bloody Honor x1]
…
Seeing this gaze, Goethe's face turned strange.
" There is such an assassin?"
"What if I get hit by the big X Lake that's left behind?"
“Is this the other party’s patience?”
Goethe couldn't help frowning.
It was both an accident and a bit uncomfortable - although I knew that after years of cleaning, there would be no foreign matter left on the spear, I still couldn't help but wipe my hands with the alcohol I carried with me.
At this time, the battle on the ground was coming to an end.
The manor guards relied on the terrain advantage to win the victory.
But it was only a pyrrhic victory.
Many people died, and the few remaining people were all injured.
The attackers were not completely wiped out.
Two more ran away.
More importantly,
The sirens are sounding!
More than a dozen police cars appeared on the road.
After repeatedly calling for Pentel without success, the manor guards quickly evacuated.
There is no doubt that these people have a very dirty background.
Combined with Pentel's previous words, Goethe already had some guesses.
There is a high probability that he was once a colleague of his.
Killer!
"You have withdrawn from the so-called business circle and are active as a collector?"
"He should be active as a killer agent under the name of a collector, right?"
Goethe muttered to himself and began to walk upwards.
An, who had already taken control of the entire Pentel Manor, looked at Goethe who walked out safely, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly, and then returned to normal.
Xusta on the side looked at Goethe strangely.
"What's wrong?"
Goethe asked in surprise.
"Does Goethe find it strange?"
"Why is it that wherever you go, something bad happens?"
"It's as if..."
Xiusta didn't finish his words, and swallowed them back under An's cold gaze .
Goethe certainly knew what the other party wanted to say.
'Disaster star'!
This is what the other party wants to say.
But Goethe would not admit it.
"I just heard the screams of the dead."
“So, I came here following the sound.”
"It is not because of my appearance that disaster occurred."
"It's the victims of the disaster who wished I was here."
Goethe explained.
Xiusta was skeptical.
Garifa, who was examining the body, didn't believe it at all. The forensic doctor firmly believed that Goethe was a "disaster star". Otherwise, why would Clifford, who was traveling with Goethe, be injured again?
This time the injury is more serious than last time.
I will have to stay in the hospital for at least half a year.
There might be some serious sequelae.
"Don't let it affect An!"
The female medical examiner prayed.
But unlike the two of them, the reporters who followed them and had noses sharper than dogs believed it all.
At least, I believed it on the surface.
"Mr. Winchester, why do you say there are wailing sounds of the dead here?"
"Mr. Winchester, did you see anything?"
…
Facing the reporter's questions, Goethe maintained a distant attitude.
"Look at the soil outside in the forest. It is full of blood."
"And the executioners who escaped..."
"They should be punished!"
As Goethe spoke, he closed his eyes.
Then, it suddenly pointed in one direction.
"here!"
"There is a sinful soul!"
Goethe exclaimed.
The action of pointing is faster.
"here!"
“There are some here too!”
“And here too!”
Goethe quickly identified the direction of the escaping manor guards and attackers.
An quickly sent people to pursue.
Of course not divination.
Divination can't be that accurate.
But the crows showed the way.
However, when faced with reporters' questions, Goethe spoke nonsense in a serious manner.
"This is 'spiritual vision'!"
Goethe said, then refused to answer any more questions from the reporters and walked aside.
And with the capture of the manor guards and attackers, Goethe believed that his recognition would increase again.
This is not a win-win situation!
It’s clearly a win-win-win situation!
He won three times!
What's next?
He naturally wants to win four games!
After all, improving [Steinbeck Breathing] requires more than just [Bloody Honor].
Still need money!
Will the killer agent's lair be short of money?
The answer is of course obvious.
While a large number of people were hunting down the manor guards and attackers, Goethe used the crow's previous investigation and quickly walked into Pentel's living room.
Relying on his previous professional knowledge, he easily found the secret room which seemed quite backward to Goethe.
The secret room is hidden behind the bookshelf.
Entering also requires only moving one book.
As the secret room opened, looking at the piles of cash inside, Goethe said without hesitation:
"[Bloody Honor] improves [Steinbeck Breathing]!"
