Chapter 327 Beheading
High in the sky.
The clouds are misty.
A monoplane, one size smaller than the X-1 biplane transport aircraft, is sailing at high speed.
The wings cut through the air and made a loud rumble.
At this time, there were two men and two women sitting in the cabin, a total of four young men and women.
One of them, a man and a woman, had a chance encounter with Gillan in the Investigative Committee Hall on the 70th floor of the Triumph Building. He is a member of the reserve "Thorns" of the ancient secret sect "Midnight Rose".
On their hands, the four of them all wore ruby rings of the same style as Jilan’s, which were a status symbol.
"Haldane, I heard that you and Celine have met the 'Thorns' No. 001?"
A young man with small eyes and medium-long broken hair, He asked the short-haired man opposite him.
The short-haired man Haldane turned his head, looked at Miss Celine with short brown hair next to her, and nodded immediately.
"Yes. Although I only glanced at him from a distance, Mr. Gillan's strength cannot be underestimated."
Haldane said with emotion.
Celine ate a washed red berry and added in a low voice with admiration:
"I heard that it was because of him that the top echelons of the Tantric Cult were willing to break the rules and create the 'Thorns' Such a reserve organization.”
"Is it that exaggerated? Make an exception for him alone?"
The small-eyed, long-haired man who asked the question chuckled.
“I have actually heard of Gilan. He was once the illegitimate son of an earl family, but this family was completely banned a few months ago due to suspected cult activities... As for him, he is now employed As the leader of the mysterious investigation committee, that’s it.”
“Buweig, he has another identity, that is, the ‘gravedigger’ of the empire.”
Sit. The braided woman next to the long-haired man took a sip of coffee and said calmly.
"What does this mean, Haridan?"
Buweig shrugged.
“We are all third-level spiritual mystics, and we are all reserves of the Esoteric Cult. I really don’t understand why the Esoteric Cult sent us to assist him... just because he is No. 001, so he is more special than us?”< br>
“Although I am not willing to be his assistant, this is the task of the Esoteric Cult.”
Halidan put down the coffee cup and said calmly.
Buweig squinted his eyes, crossed his elbows and turned his head, looking at the clouds outside the porthole, and said:
"When I first received the 'hotline', I felt strange... If it was a joint operation, I didn't Any objections, but I just obeyed a reservist of the same level."
"What else can I say? Let us reservists come and learn..."
He said with a laugh.
No one said anything, and the atmosphere was silent for a few seconds.
The short-haired man named Haldane sighed and advised:
“I don’t know why Mr. Gillan is taken seriously by the Tantric Cult...but I have been working hard in the field of occultism for more than ten years. Cai Kankan seized the opportunity to join the "Thorns", knowing that some people are always special."
"I think we should be in awe of the strong."
Besides. Celine nodded slightly and agreed with his statement.
However, Haridan didn’t express anything about this, while Buweig chuckled and retorted:
"Then I hope he is really a strong man and not just a 'Pigree'."
At this time, the plane began to land slowly under the gray sky.
“We’re finally here, let’s go take a look at the ‘famous’ No. 001 ‘Blood Owl’.”
Buweg got up first and stretched. Put your hands in your pockets.
…
…
Inside the shipyard, there is an open space in the factory building.
The body of Senator Royce fell in a pool of blood. His head was torn apart by the ferocious firepower of the alchemy revolver, and the brain blood was splashed all over the ground.
Everyone looked shocked.
No one expected that Gillan would shoot without hesitation and kill the town councilman on the spot.
"First of all, sir, we are just following orders!"
The secretary in a suit and tie said, his legs weak with fear, and he raised his hands tremblingly.
“Please don’t shoot!”
Even the staff on the side were full of fear and sweating profusely. I was afraid that the blond young man in front of me would kill him randomly.
Gilan glanced at a few people indifferently and put the revolver into the holster lightly.
The weather in December is a bit cold. Although the local area is located in the warmer south, the temperature is only a few degrees.
Congressman Royce’s “remnants” were still steaming, but Gillan’s attention was not there.
He looked in front of his sight without any trace.
The colorful colorful light formed several lines of skewed writing, which only he could see:
"Trigger mission: beheading."
"The local council of Late Autumn Town colluded with the Blood Harbor gang, but they didn't know that there was someone else behind the gang. Under the cover of the council, the Blood Harbor gang continued to secretly collect 'Red Whale Hearts' to provide information for the secret research of 'Golden Force No. 7' Convenient. "
"Right now, due to the outbreak of miasma, turmoil has occurred in Shenqiu Town, the population has dropped sharply, and order has collapsed. The Blood Harbor Gang has become the underground master of Shenqiu Town. "
"The arrival of the second group of gravediggers seems to have aroused the hostility of the local forces. The council and the Blood Harbor gang will continue to hinder your actions."
"Kill more than half of the members of the Late Autumn Town Council, or kill The leader of the Blood Harbor gang and its top leaders clear the obstacles."
"Time limit: 72 hours."
"Reward: Moderate improvement in gnosis, spirituality, and physical body (choose one from three)."
"Task accepted."
The text of the task in front of me comes from the essence of the "player" New ability "Golden Sigh". It was also the first time he triggered it after being promoted to level 4.
‘All my actions and motivations in reality will have the potential to passively trigger this ability...’
Jilan’s eyes revealed his thoughts.
‘Beheading is what I want. ’
He withdrew his attention, and the colorful words disappeared.
Immediately turned to look at the gray-haired person in charge, and said in a deep voice:
"Ms. Teresa, you also heard the communication with the Chairman last night... I have obtained temporary privileges , on the premise that the grave digging task is the first priority, you can act flexibly."
"Yes, I know."
Ms. Teresa glanced at the corpse on the ground. She did not accuse Gillan of being cruel, but sighed and said:
"So what do you think about the current situation?"
"The local council is obviously deeply involved with the Blood Harbor gang. If it is not dealt with, it will be difficult to carry out our mission... I plan to take action to attack these two forces."
Gilan said calmly.
“It just so happens that we currently lack ships and energy to sail, and the other party must have what we need.”
As soon as these words came out, the secretary and clerk were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground, trembling all over.
Even Colonel Torre and his adjutant changed their expressions and did not dare to take a breath for a while.
They all know that the Empire's special operations department specializes in targeting mysterious disasters and has extraordinary mysterious power.
The blond young man in front of me is definitely not being frivolous when he names and targets the town council and the Blood Harbor gang.
“Yeah...that’s fine.”
Ms. Teresa thought about it, but did not refuse.
She knew the current situation, and Gilan's suggestion was the best choice.
"Gilan, which party are you going to attack?"
"The Blood Harbor Gang."
Gilan seems to have had a plan.
Ms. Teresa nodded and said:
"Then I will be in charge of the parliament... How many manpower do you need?"
"Ask Colonel Torre to lead a company of 100 people to follow. I’ll be fine.”
Gilan thought for a while.
Ms. Teresa frowned slightly and reminded:
"Don't underestimate the Blood Harbor gang. They must have mysterious power. It may be difficult for you and a company to handle it alone... I'll let Maiev and Kaya act with you."
" "Yeah." Ji Lan nodded in agreement. "Actually, Chairman Parra has also dispatched support, which should be arriving soon."
Ms. Teresa raised an eyebrow.
As if to confirm Jilan's words, there was a roar of a car engine outside the shipyard building. Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of the engine turning off and the door opening and closing.
A soldier guarding the outside ordered:
"The military-controlled area is closed to traffic."
"The investigation committee has temporarily certified that we have been ordered to come for support."
Hurry. A man's calm voice sounded.
After the vague conversation, there was a sound of footsteps.
Four young men and women walked in with their heads held high.
"Hello, Mr. Gilan Ilos."
The burly man with a short hair and a height of 1.8 meters strode forward, smiled at Gilan and spoke.
But compared to Jilan, his physique is actually half a head shorter.
"I am Haldane Negati, we met in the Council Hall."
The man stretched out his hand and smiled.
“Mr. Haldane, hello.”
Gillen also reached out and shook his hand politely.
During this process, he noticed that Haldane tapped the ruby ring on his index finger intentionally or unintentionally, which was a hint.
Jilan nodded without any trace.
He understood that the other party was hinting at his identity. The four of them were reserve members of the "Thorns" sent by the secret sect "Midnight Rose".
“This is Celine, as well as Buweig and Haridan.”
Haldane introduced the three people around him to Gilan.
"Our numbers are from 002 to 005."
"Thank you for coming all the way, and I need your help next time."
Gillan laughed.
At this time, Buweig, who was standing beside Haldane, chuckled and said:
"Mr. Gillan, please agree in advance about life and death. "I'm sorry, we're just here to help, not to sacrifice our lives."
"So, Mr. Buweig, what can you do?"
Gilan asked with a smile.
"Explore the enemy's situation and alert the rear."
Buweg said calmly.
"My essence is a 'journalist', you won't let me charge into battle, right?"
"Well, I understand...it turns out that I am not only a coward, but also a waste."< br>
Jilan nodded, with a look of confusion on his face.
"Then what are you doing here? Go back to where you came from."
"You..."
Buweger narrowed his eyes.
A trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but he quickly hid it.
"Haha, this is what you said. We followed the order and came to support you, but you yourself did not accept the kindness."
Buweig smiled, turned around and left.
The braided woman Haridan beside him also spoke at this time and said:
"My true nature is a 'businessman', so I am afraid that I will not be able to take on important responsibilities. Ji If Mr. Lan doesn’t need it, then I’ll leave too.”
“It’s up to you,” Ji Lan said calmly.
Hearing this, Haridan did not hesitate at all, turned around and followed Buweig, planning to leave the shipyard.
But at this moment, Jilan said lightly:
"It seems that our organization still has to raise the bar, how can we recruit some useless stuff."
Pa!
Boweger and Haridan stopped at the same time.
They turned around slowly, all with expressionless faces.
Buweig said unceremoniously:
“If we are useless, then what are you?”
“Gilan Iros, you are just better than us. Just because we join the organization first does not mean that you are superior to others. We cannot disobey the orders of our superiors, but it does not mean that we will accept your insults for nothing. "
Haridan said coldly.
"Insult?" Jilan raised his eyebrows in surprise. "I'm just stating the facts."
"Besides, you two are obviously unwilling to accept the assignment. In this case, you might as well stop staying in the organization."
"What qualifications do you have to decide this matter?"
Buweig was extremely angry. Smiling back.
Next to Gillan, Ms. Celine, with her short curly hair, looked embarrassed and said:
"Mr. Gillan, otherwise..."
"Celine."
However, Haldane quickly pulled her up, shook his head with an extremely serious expression, and signaled her not to interfere.
Celine shut her mouth and took a step back.
Colonel Torre and all the soldiers present were silent and did not dare to interfere at all. Even Ms. Teresa and the other gravediggers looked like they were watching a show.
Jilan’s expression was calm.
He suddenly heard a "ding" sound.
A golden exclamation mark lit up above the head.
The colorful words appeared in front of me, triggering the original ability "Golden Sigh" again.
“Trigger mission: Deterrence.”
“The reserve members sent by the ancient secret sect ‘Midnight Rose’ are disobedient to you, let alone obey your orders.”
"Intimidate Buweig Murray, member No. 004 of the Thorns, and Haridan Mora, member No. 005, and make them obey you."
"Time limit: 2 hours."< br>
“Reward: Small improvement in gnosis, spirituality, and physical body (choose one from three).”
“Task not accepted.”
Jilan thought secretly:
'accept. ’
The colored words then changed to “Mission Accepted”.
Jilan looked at the two young men, a man and a woman, and said calmly:
"Qualifications?" He spread his hands. "In the field of mysticism, strength is qualification."
"Give you a chance, two of you can make me move even one step, I will not pursue this matter... If you can't do it, ask me Apologize and obey the orders honestly.”
Gilan's eyes were deep and his tone was cold.
Buweg grinned.
“You really think of yourself as a person.”
Oh! !
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure moved.
At the same time, the mysterious power "self potential" common to third-level spiritual mystics is opened.
Harridan, who was beside him, was also angered by Gilan's "arrogant" words and jumped out almost at the same time.
The expressions of the two of them were blank, but their eyes were cold.
They all ducked in front of the blond young man. One of them punched, the other whipped his leg, attacking the left side of his face and the right side of his neck.
Woo——
The strong wind blew against my face, and the afterimages flickered.
Gilan, however, raised his hand without batting an eyelid.
The index finger and the middle finger are close together, and the second finger comes first, at the elbow socket and ankle of Buweig and Haridan.
Poof! puff!
The Twin Swords, Pisces Sword, Capricorn Sword and Aquarius Sword in the Twelve Secret Swordsmanship merged at Jilan's fingertips at this moment, instantly disarming the two of them.
Buweig and Haridan's expressions changed.
They can't feel their arms and calves!
Immediately afterwards, I saw Jilan reaching out with both arms and grabbing the two of them by the neck!
