Chapter 48: Moment of Truth
Chapter 48 Moment of Truth Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com
Bai Yan returned to the office of the Demon Hunt Agency and checked the time on his phone, realizing that the time flow in the two worlds was the same.
"Perhaps, I didn't go to other worlds?"
Alan said that there were no surveillance cameras in the Demon Hunt Agency's office, otherwise he wouldn't have entered the Babel Tower so easily.
But even if someone discovers his sudden disappearance, he can come up with many excuses and there is no need to mention the matter of Babel Tower.
He recalled everything he had experienced at Babel Tower just now, it was like a dream. In a sense, it was only now that he truly entered the extraordinary world.
.
After Bai Yan had been slacking off all day until late at night, he stretched lazily and took out his phone to check the latest updates on auto-play.
"Log records of Core Operator Nightsaber."
"Try to use her abilities proficiently and further adapt to the 'Nyx's cover'."
"The butler of Nightsaber didn't make dinner on time. She attempted to cook by herself, and failed. Mood -1."
"Order barbecue. Mood +1."
Um, in a sense, she still lives in a down to earth manner. But Bai Yan is a bit unsure on how to evaluate Nightsaber's ability to survive.
In his impression, members who used Nyx's cover would plunged into visual darkness for a period of time. For the future King of Night, this cost cannot be considered as a gain.
And that's why Bai Yan gave that relic to her.
Then it's Psychic Dancer's log.
"Log records of Core Operator Psychic Dancer."
"Attempt to use Sacred Rune Athena to activate dual self-abilities and control multiple targets."
"Exercise psychic strength. DEX +1."
"Record the roadmap of her family."
"Eh."
Bai Yan was a little surprised that Psychic Dancer seemed to have changed after the meeting that she started to work hard like never before.
'What does she want to do? She's even keeping a record of her family's map?'
Although he doesn't know who Psychic Dancer is yet, it's easy to tell from the video and accent that she's a local resident of Tatsumi City.
And from her living conditions, Bai Yan could deduce that she was probably a member of one of the several prominent families in the Platinum Zone. After all, she lives so extravagantly.
"It seems like she has some plans, but I'm not sure what yet."
Bai Yan looked forward to it!
He realized that he was somewhat anticipating the fun things Psychic Dancer was planning to do.
Just at this moment, a sudden mission popped up directly on the screen.
"Sudden mission!"
"Urgent!"
"Moment of truth!"
She rarely smiles anymore, always worried and anxious. She doesn't remember the specifics of the day, but is very persistent when it comes to her family changing.
Yes, Mu Ling was not born with her current personality. No one is born filled with ideals of honor and a desire to fight, but hardly spend much time thinking about themselves.
Recently, Mu Ling has become stronger, but Huo Xin is very worried. Besides her identity as a crime hunter, what else does she have?
At that moment, his nose twitched slightly and he suddenly became aware of a strange scent.
In the nearby alley, two groups of black-clad individuals wearing grey masks slowly emerged at the intersection.
They didn't even make a sound of footsteps, they were soundless, like ghosts in the dark.
Huo Xin frowned and noticed that there were no pedestrians around.
Out of the many men in black walked out two strangely shaped cultists who could be recognized as the leaders at first glance.
One is a tall and robust man with a height of more than three meters. He had a slightly decaying body under his black belt. He also wore a gray mask with a broad smile on his face.
He held a giant white stone pestle in his hand that was over two meters long. It didn't look like a weapon, but more like a simple big stone.
The other black-haired woman is only slightly over 1.6 meters tall, with a slender figure. No emotions could be seen in her black pupils. She had delicate facial features , but her mouth is completely sewn shut with thread.
The woman in black calmly looked at Huo Xin, extending a palm with a human mouth on it.
The mouth opened, revealing an unusually flat young male voice.
"I am...Mystery."
"I hope to have a talk with the owner of Babel Tower. We should not be enemies."
Huo Xin's eyes narrowed and every muscle in his body tightened up!
It's him!
Mr. Mystery! The Black Star Faction's high priest in Tatsumi City, the mastermind behind the destruction of the hunt families!
"Mr. Huo Xin."
"I no longer hold any grudge against the hunter. As long as you are willing to sign a 'contract' and help me contact the owner of Babel Tower, you can live here."
Huo Xin's expression became very subtle.
"No grudge?" His tone grew increasingly heavy, and the anger in his words was impossible to ignore.
"You killed so many crime-hunters and completely destroyed the family I was loyal to. For so many years, I have been hiding because of you."
"And you destroyed Miss Mu Ling's life. Joy, love, and laughter that she could have were all taken away by you!"
"Now, you say you no longer have any grudge?"
Huo Xin's eyes became increasingly red, his muscles swelled to an inhuman degree, and his facial hair grew thick.
"But I have always hated you guys!"
"I wish to tear you apart and devour you!"
The mouth on the hand of the black-haired woman continued. "So, it was actually a wolf raising up the hunter."
The slim and exquisite suit has been torn apart.? Covered in silver-gray fur, he looks like a work of art under the moonlight, showing all the charm that violent aesthetics can bring.
The tall werewolf stood in the moonlight, elegant yet filled with slaughter. Its blood-red eyes contained years of pent-up hatred.
"Ooh!"
The werewolf howls mournfully under the moon!
"Because, wolves were raised by former hunters!"
