Move forward a little bit in time.
a few minutes ago.
The tall and mighty Lance walked into the Black Gold Club's house with the thin and wretched Heite.
After entering the house, Lance found that the house was quiet, as if no one was there.
"Huh?" Lance was a little confused, because usually, this house was very lively, packed with people with various titles such as deputy team leader, team leader, deputy minister, etc., as well as new people who were pulled into the meeting. member. Only entering the innermost room of the house, where the Honorable President Winkle rests, does one get a little quieter.
So today is…
Lance took Hater and walked forward with a frown on his face. As they were walking, Black Te suddenly pulled Lance gently and pointed a trembling finger to the side.
Lance stopped and looked towards where Heite was pointing. In a corner, he saw a body lying in a pool of blood. And he still knew that corpse. He was one of his biggest rivals in the Black Gold Association, with the title of official team leader. He competed with him at every turn, and several times overcame the members he had managed to get into the association.
This time, he invited Hete to join the meeting, intending to humiliate him after he was promoted to deputy minister, but he did not expect that he would die.
Seeing the other party's body, Lance didn't feel any joy. He only felt his scalp numb and his whole head seemed to be getting smaller. He tried hard to maintain his composure so as not to lose his composure.
Heite was so frightened that his face turned extremely pale and he could not speak clearly: "Lan...Brother Lance, what...what's going on? Didn't you tell me that the Black Gold Club is very good? How come there are dead people? I... I won't join, I can quit... No?"
Lance glared at Hater hard, said nothing, and ran quickly towards the innermost room of the house.
Heite, who stayed where he was, quickly caught up: "Lan...Brother Lance, you...you wait for me, wait for me..."
Soon, the two of them arrived at the door of the innermost room.
In front of the door, Lance stopped, took a deep breath, and pushed the door open.
The next moment, Lance was stunned, his whole body shrouded in huge terror.
Inside the door, I saw the respected Lord Winkle, the president of the Black Gold Society, sitting on a chair, his neck tilted to one side at an exaggerated angle. He had obviously been killed by having his neck broken.
In addition, there were a large number of people lying on the ground, all members of the Black Gold Society, but none of them were alive. The whole room was like a slaughterhouse.
Among the many corpses, there stood two men in black robes with disdainful faces.
The two men in black robes seemed to sense Lance and turned around slowly.
For a moment, Lance felt as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, and the feeling of danger surged toward him like an explosion. Out of instinct, Lance turned and ran. He raised his hand and tried to pull Heite next to him, but found that the other person was stunned and couldn't move at all. He gave up decisively and ran towards the door alone.
And just behind him, a man in black robes raised his hand, stretched out a finger, and swiped in the air.
"Stab it!"
A ball of golden flame appeared at the end of the black-robed man's finger, floated into the air, and then exploded.
"Boom!"
The explosion quickly swept through the entire house, and the shock wave carried flames that caught up with the fleeing Lance and engulfed him.
Amid the screams, Lance fell, while the two men in black robes walked outside without even looking at them, stepping on the flames. On the surface of their bodies, there is an undetectable energy film that protects them from flames.
Soon, two men in black robes walked out of the burning house and were about to leave when they saw a panting fat man holding a huge bathtub appearing in front of them.
The fat man looked over, obviously a little scared. While talking, he knocked down the tub and shouted, "I... I'm the one who pours the bath water, yes, I'm the one who pours the bath water."
A man in black robe shook his head imperceptibly, and the next moment he raised his hand, aiming it at the fat man.
The fat man collapsed on the ground, and the water flowing out of his tub quickly condensed and froze into a pattern.
After doing this, the two men in black robes turned and left.
After walking far away, one of the men in black robes spoke up and asked in a magnetic male voice: "Solmen, why don't you kill that fat man?"
"He is not a member of a chain communication organization. It doesn't matter whether we kill him or not. Besides, if we don't kill him, we will have someone who can spread the news for us.
In this way, people soon knew that a gang with the symbol of the Black Spirit Empire was trying to destroy the original order of White Rock City. We had completed two tasks. Next, let’s see the reaction of White Rock Tower. "
"Uh." The other man in black robe nodded, and they walked into the darkness together.
…
It's still late at night.
In an underground secret room somewhere in Baishi City, there are more than a dozen high-backed leather chairs surrounding a long table. People were sitting on the high-backed leather chairs on both sides of the long table, as if waiting for something.
On the top of the long table, a black cat lay lying on its stomach, closing its eyes and concentrating, with a lazy and arrogant posture, completely ignoring the people sitting there, as if they were all its slaves.
The sitting person had a strange expression. At this moment, the lying cat felt something, suddenly stood up, looked towards the exit of the secret room, and then began to run quickly on the table. Running to the edge of the table, the black cat suddenly jumped up and drew an arc in mid-air. After reaching its highest point, the black cat fell and landed firmly on the shoulders of a person who entered the secret room.
An old man walked in, his steps were a little slow, but he was very majestic, and his black robe added a bit of mystery. Behind him was a young man with a thin body and a stern expression.
The black cat jumped on the old man's shoulder. The old man was not surprised at all. He stretched out his hand and gently stroked the black cat's back, then walked towards the high-backed leather chair that was specially vacated at one end of the long table.
Walking to the high-backed leather chair, the old man sat down, and the young man following him stood upright next to him.
"Let's get started." The old man said after he sat down and looked at everyone on both sides of the table. "I called you here in such a hurry this time. You must have heard some news."
"Master, I heard that in the slums in the north of the city, at the scene of a fire, the frozen symbol of our parliament appeared?" someone said.
"Yes." The old man nodded, "And you should know what this means, right?"
"..." There was silence for a while.
The old man spoke slowly: "Our parliament's long-standing rule is to hide from the world and hide ourselves, but now someone is so blatantly exposing our location, and it is still at this critical period.
The White Stone Tower has recently held an event that only happens once every ten years, so it attaches great importance to it. Now, if something out of the ordinary happens, it will definitely attract their attention. So... we must find out who did this! "
"Do you all understand?" the old man raised his head and asked, and a face hidden under the hood slowly emerged - the great scholar Surades, scanning everyone in the secret room with his eyes, majestic and not allowed to be rejected.
"Meow!" The black cat on his shoulder meowed.
"Yes!" Everyone answered in unison.
"That's good." Suradi nodded with satisfaction.
