Volume 1: The Gate of Flesh and Blood Chapter 121: Letter from Afar!
When it comes to life and death, it’s a big deal.
And when it comes to big things, Sheila is always cautious.
So, she chose the approach that best followed her heart.
"Sheila?"
"I've heard your name."
"Thank you for your help, 'Secret Keeper'. Now I would like to have a private space."
The sloppy middle-aged man gave a very official smile and spoke in an even more official tone.
"certainly!"
"This is at your disposal!"
After saying this, Sheila immediately left the secret room.
Then she saw Goethe standing outside.
This lady with multiple identities was about to speak subconsciously, but she held herself back.
Not only did he hold back from speaking, but the two of them also glanced at each other.
Doesn't seem familiar in general.
In the secret room, Morey looked at Alger Aldridge with shame on his face.
"Captain, I'm sorry to disappoint you."
As Morey spoke, he lowered his head.
"Just be alive."
"other ?"
"It doesn't matter."
The slovenly middle-aged man patted Morey on the shoulder, then said directly to Morey and Mrs. Pence:
"This incident of the 'Flesh and Blood Church' has nothing to do with you."
"The staff at headquarters will be responsible for this matter."
Morey and Mrs. Pence looked at each other.
Both of them saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
"Staff?"
"them?"
Morey frowned.
The General Staff Department at the headquarters is not a pleasant place, and the people inside are extremely annoying.
At least, Morey doesn't like it.
"They are all a bunch of damn guys, so this time they must die in waves."
The sloppy middle-aged man took a deep puff of his cigarette and exhaled the smoke with a cold voice.
Morey immediately tried to persuade his captain.
Of course the people in the General Staff are bastards and they deserve to die.
However, it is undeniable that those guys also have their own power.
Moreover, each of them comes from an extraordinary background.
If his captain came into conflict with those people, he would not have an absolute advantage.
However, before he could open his mouth, the sloppy middle-aged man stopped him with a smile and a wave of his hand.
"I know what I want to do, so, Morey, just rest assured - I won't fight a battle I'm not sure of."
Speaking of his famous quote, the captain of Team 17 changed the subject.
"Let's talk about Goethe Wein."
The sloppy middle-aged man looked at Morey.
"He is the most cautious and calm young man I have ever met, and he has excellent talent. As Goethe Wein's 'guide', I trust him completely."
The slovenly middle-aged man looked at Mrs. Pence again.
"I agree with Morey's point of view. Goethe Wein's ability is beyond doubt, but his principles in dealing with things are even more surprising to me - he has his own bottom line, and it will not be broken."
Mrs. Pence said matter-of-factly.
“Such a high evaluation?”
"What about his bloodline?"
The sloppy middle-aged man looked at his two former subordinates and continued asking.
"The blood of 'George I' is not uncommon in Tesin, and with the Exile Act, Goethe's blood is not a problem."
Morey replied.
"Um."
"I have some private channels saying that Goethe Wein is the guardian of the legacy of 'His Majesty George I' - he has made many arrangements just to successfully join the 'Secret Keeper'."
The sloppy middle-aged man said.
"This is impossible!"
"Someone is definitely spreading rumors to slander Goethe. The 'Mist Killer' incident has already proven that the Wayne family is ordinary. There may be one or two props left behind, but Goethe only came into contact with them after the murder."
"I can guarantee with my honor that Goethe Wein is definitely not someone who would sit back and watch his family die in order to achieve some kind of goal!"
Morey stood up straight and looked directly at his captain.
The official head of Luster understood what his captain wanted to ask the moment he opened his mouth.
"I can also use my honor to guarantee that Goethe Wein has never systematically studied supernatural knowledge before, so he cannot be the guardian of the legacy of 'His Majesty George I'."
Mrs. Burns also struggled to stand up and vouched for Goethe.
"Well, it seems that this little guy has completely won your approval."
The sloppy middle-aged man sighed helplessly.
Then, he spoke again with a hint of joking.
"But that lunatic Skiffens Steinbeck calls Goethe Wein his brother."
"What?!"
Morey and Mrs. Pence were stunned.
Then, they both shook their heads.
"You can't believe what that madman said. He must have done this to achieve some purpose."
The two spoke in no particular order.
Seeing his two subordinates explaining anxiously, the sloppy middle-aged man burst into laughter.
"Of course I know that the madman's words cannot be trusted."
"So, I won't listen to what that lunatic says at all."
"I just hope that bastard behaves for a while."
The sloppy middle-aged man said this and looked at the unconscious Kyle.
"Is this the other little guy you recommended?"
The sloppy middle-aged man asked.
"Well, he is also a very nice young man, honest and compassionate, a gentleman."
Morey nodded.
"But he is not rigid and knows how to adapt."
Mrs. Pence added.
“That sounds good.”
The sloppy middle-aged man raised his hand and a gentle white light fell. Kyle's injuries recovered quickly and his breathing became steady. The white light then fell on Morey and Mrs. Pence.
In an instant, both of their injuries were healed.
The two who had experienced baptism were more adapted to this power than Kyle.
"Now cooperate with other members of the action team to conduct a strict investigation of Luster, evacuate and protect civilians, and not spare any of the bastards of the 'Flesh and Blood Church'."
The sloppy middle-aged man gave the order.
"yes!"
Morey and Mrs. Pence answered together.
Goethe, who is an apprentice "secret keeper", and Sheila, who is already "semi-official", also joined the operation.
Also appearing is Freddy from 'Elm Street'.
After confirming that the 'Secret Keeper' had regained control of Luster, this 'semi-official' staff immediately took action.
Goethe was deeply impressed by the owner of the 'Nightmare Night' drugstore.
It was not only because the other party had perfect timing, but also because as soon as they met, he gave him two potions that could quickly restore his strength.
Therefore, in the actions of the next few days, Goethe did not refuse to act together with the other party.
puff!
The [Shadow Snake Blade] with armor-piercing effect easily cut the throat of a 'Son of Flesh and Blood'.
As blood spurted out, Sheila pulled the rapier out of the 'flesh and blood believer's' body.
Freddy on the side clapped his hands vigorously.
"Although this is not the first time I have seen you, your fighting style is always fresh in my memory, Goethe."
"And of course Ms. Sheila's."
"I have some potions here, I hope you two can use them."
The middle-aged Vladi was wearing a brown half-robed robe. He raised his hand and took out . He handed one to Goethe and the other to Sheila.
Goethe and Silas did not refuse.
Just like they did not refuse Freddy to become an auxiliary and not have to directly participate in the battle.
“This should be the last one on the block we are responsible for.”
"You can rest tomorrow!"
Sheila looked at Goethe while wiping her rapier.
There was a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
This lady with multiple identities wants to talk to Goethe about the 'Mad King's Legacy'.
But, same as before.
Goethe turned a blind eye.
As long as Alger Aldridge was in Luster, it was impossible for him to have any conversation with Sheila about the "Mad King's Legacy".
Even if Sheila thought it was safe.
"I really envy you two for being able to rest. I still have to help the logistics staff of the action team deal with the aftermath."
Freddy looked helpless.
Of course, this is just an act.
Goethe did not reveal it, but asked with great interest.
"Erasing memories?"
"Well, most of the people still alive in Lust need to undergo a drug-assisted treatment - this is a huge project and cannot be completed in a short period of time."
"It will take at least a month."
"We also have to prevent some accidents during this period, which is really troublesome."
Freddy smiled bitterly.
This time it was a genuine smile.
It can be seen that the boss of "Nightmare Night" does not want to join in such a difficult task, but as a "semi-official staff", this is an obligation he must undertake.
Sheila also shared the responsibility.
Sheila did not have a rest the next day.
Under the order of Captain Alger Aldridge, Sheila, as the owner of the Hunter Bar, took on the task of preventing more news from leaking out.
But when Goethe offered to help, he was told he could take a vacation.
"The captain is very considerate of his subordinates."
"You have already exceeded your mission as a 'Secret Keeper Apprentice'."
"So, you can take a break now."
At No. 1 Guta Street, Morey explained to Goethe.
Then, without Goethe asking, Morey told Goethe why he was there.
"As for me?"
"I fought a 'Child of Extraordinary' yesterday, and once again the 'Extraordinary got out of control'."
“So, I was given a day off, too.”
The former head of Luster's Extraordinary sighed.
Looking at Morey's appearance, Goethe took out a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet next to him.
It's wine.
The cheap kind is pretty good.
Swart bought it specially when he renovated the place.
"It's a rare holiday, would you like something to drink?"
Goethe didn't know what happened in the secret room at No. 45, Shade Street that day. Alger Aldrich's power prevented Goethe from listening, but Goethe knew that Morey in front of him must have guaranteed him.
Goethe could sense this from Alger Aldrich's increasingly friendly attitude.
For this, Goethe was sincerely grateful.
Otherwise, he would have to force open the last 'secret realm' and escape temporarily.
And, they will definitely use the craziest ways to earn the right to survive.
Just like he did back home.
Goethe never wanted to recall that experience.
As for doing it again?
Goethe didn't know if he could bear it again.
He might survive, but he would definitely no longer be himself.
Or maybe he would just die, and take the whole world with him.
All in all, it's not a good outcome.
Therefore, Goethe was very grateful to his 'guide'.
"good."
"Just a little."
Morey did not refuse the wine, and was even a little happy.
However, just as Goethe was opening the wine, Mrs. Burns arrived.
The old lady handed a letter to Goethe with a strange look on her face.
"This is a letter from your 'relative'."
Goethe was startled.
"relative?"
All of his relatives should be dead.
Where did the relatives come from?
"Yes, Lord Scrooge!"
Mrs. Pence spoke the name with respect.
Goethe frowned and opened the letter.
Goethe:
My dear nephew, I am sorry to meet you in this way. Our blood comes from your great-grandfather. He had two sons, one is your grandfather and the other is my father. However, we have lost contact due to distance. However, I heard news about you when I was dying.
But I am already seriously ill and cannot go to see you in person.
So, I made this decision.
I have decided to give you my share of the inheritance.
To reward you for defending your family.
To reward you for your act of revenge for your loved ones.
Please come to the Northland as soon as possible, I will try my best to wait for you.
Your uncle: Scrooge
Qi.D1888.6.22
…
Looking at the letter, Goethe frowned.
He sensed a familiar sense of conspiracy from the letter.
and……
Who is Scrooge?
Travel without boundaries
