"James Moriarty..."

A voice sounded from behind Anthony. This name made him feel happy but also uneasy. Every time he heard it, he would think of those cunning poisonous snakes.

"I've actually been curious about where you found this... weird lunatic."

Samuel limped over with the help of a crutch. He looked extremely embarrassed at the moment, with bandages wrapped around his body and his face was pale.

He was hit head-on by the lacquered tin flying knife and the bullet mixed with cantrera. Fortunately, Samur had already stimulated the power of Power Yanar to the extreme at that time, and his overall state had become close to demonization. In addition, the bullet did not hit his heart, so Samur was able to survive the violent explosion and poison.

But this was just a barely possible survival. When the demon hunter dug him out of the collapsed ruins, his body was extremely strange. Life and death appeared on his body at the same time. While he was healing, his flesh and blood were necrotizing due to the toxin.

That short period of time was like hell for Samuel.

Fortunately, thanks to this powerful power, Samuel finally survived. Although he was a little embarrassed, with the physique of a demon hunter, his injuries were healing rapidly, and perhaps he would be able to fight again in a few days.

"I have warned you that Lorenzo Holmes is dangerous, very dangerous. We still don't know what effect the fake Holy Grail on him has. A rash attack will only cost us."

Anthony turned around and looked at his embarrassed deputy. He always gave people a sense of calmness, but at this moment there was a slight anger in his voice.

"We lost three demon hunters in this operation. Fortunately, they were our hidden agents, and the Purge Agency was unaware of their existence."

After the loss of Revelation, every active demon hunter has become extremely valuable, and their secret blood is the most precious treasure.

"It had nothing to do with us, we had no idea why Lorenzo was there, it was a damn encounter," Samuel said.

He had just woken up from a coma and came here to report to Anthony about matters related to the operation.

"An encounter?"

"Yes, we successfully invaded Shermans' base, but when I found Shermans, he was with Lorenzo..."

"How did he find Shermans?" Anthony asked.

"I don't know, but I think it has something to do with the letter." Samuel analyzed. Although he had just woken up, he felt more and more that this encounter was full of coincidences.

"Didn't we find Shermans with the help of the letter with the secret blood? Maybe the letter was for more than just us." Samuel said, "But why is Shermans so important? How could a long-exiled cardinal, who was on the edge of power even in the Seven Hills, suddenly take him seriously?"

Anthony did not answer Samuel's question, but felt a bit awkward. This was an order directly from the new Pope. He needed Shermans to confirm something. Although his question had been confirmed by the old Pope, Lorenzo's sudden contact with Shermans made Anthony suspicious.
