Chapter 458 Secret Talk
The setting sun was like blood, and the city cluster of Muse City was shrouded in a golden-red glow.
Central Triumph District, Sterling Commercial Street.
This is not far from Morales Street where Guillen Apartment is located, only about fifteen kilometers away.
He drove to this commercial street and stopped in front of an old high-end cafe called "Jasmine Bird" on the street.
A waiter at the door of the coffee shop was attracted by the roar of the engine and turned to look.
When he saw this unique silver car and the official white-on-black license plate, he immediately cheered up.
He straightened his tie and stepped forward quickly.
Soon, a young man in a white shirt, suit and suspenders, wearing a short top hat and carrying a black metal cane got out of the car.
The other party has shoulder-length hair tied up in a ponytail. What is particularly unique is the golden-red hair color and the deep purple eyes.
Seeing these features, the male waiter was shocked.
"You...you are Lord Gilan Yilos?!"
He looked excited and his tone was full of respect and disbelief.
At present, no one in the empire, especially in the capital, does not know the famous Foreign Minister Gilan. At the same time, according to the latest questionnaire, his approval rate and popularity among the people are second only to Caesar.
On the federal side, even the so-called "big stars" are probably far less popular than Gillan.
But the waiter didn't expect that this big shot would come to the coffee shop where he worked.
“Shh.” Jilan raised his index finger and put it on his mouth to signal. He smiled and said: "Take time to have a cup of coffee. I don't want to be disturbed by others during my rare rest time."
"Yes...yes, I understand, sir."
The male waiter was very busy. Nod to show understanding.
He stroked his chest again and bowed, bending down and lowering his head. His movements were more standard than usual.
When he looked up again, he saw that the tall and handsome foreign minister threw a golden Caesar with a snap of his fingers.
Ding.
The male waiter caught the gold coin and looked happy.
"Thank you very much for your generosity, my lord."
Gilan waved his hand and walked straight into the cafe.
When the teacher came back this time, he did not summon him in the chairman's office in the Triumph Building, but made an appointment at this cafe as soon as possible.
He was quite surprised because this was the first time.
There were not many customers in the cafe at this time, just a few or three, and the environment was relatively quiet, with only sporadic whispers or chatter and laughter.
Jilan glanced casually and found the teacher's figure in the corner window seat.
However, Jilan's expression became a little weird.
Because not only did the teacher's appearance change drastically at this moment, there was also a beautiful lady with extraordinary temperament sitting next to him.
Para Celsus changed his old image with white hair and a suit. He seemed to be several dozen years younger. He looked only seven or eight years older than Gillan and was quite handsome.
His facial features are three-dimensional and deep. His blond hair is combed back, leaving two strands of hair falling from his forehead. He also wears a pair of silver-plated round-framed small glasses, which makes him quite aristocratic.
Pala also noticed the arrival of the students and raised his hand to wave.
Jilan walked over.
As he got closer, he suddenly found that the lady next to the teacher looked familiar.
The other party was dressed in a black aristocratic dress, revealing her beautiful white neck and collarbone, and her hands were also wearing lace gloves. The wide-brimmed hat was placed on the table, and her long hair was draped over her shoulders, decorated with some pearls and diamonds.
Through the veil on half of his face, a pair of eyes cast a smiling look at Gilan.
"Ms. Sade?" Jilan walked to the left and took off his hat to the two of them in surprise.
Sade Balbina is one of the May Apostles, and the person sitting here must be his alter ego.
"Sit down and talk, Jilan."
At this time, the teacher raised his hand to signal.
Jilan nodded and sat down obediently on the leather bench opposite the table.
"Teacher, why are you and Ms. Sade...?"
"Ahem." Parra put her fist to her mouth and coughed, then adjusted her glasses as if nothing had happened and explained:
"I ran into Miss Sade halfway out this time... Fortunately, with her help, the investigation on the front line went very smoothly. It really helped me a lot."
"So that's it. "Gilan nodded.
But he felt that the teacher did not tell the truth and seemed to be hiding something, but as a student, it was difficult to ask.
Pala and Sade were dressed up and sitting together, giving Gilan the feeling that they were newlyweds who had just returned from a trip.
But he didn’t dare to express this feeling.
"Long time no see, Mr. Gillan."
Sade chuckled lightly, raised her hand and snapped her fingers.
Crack.
A layer of black gauze, invisible to the naked eye and vaguely detectable only by spiritual vision, shrouded and isolated their area.
“It must have been more than half a year since the last time we had a tea party at the Fading Dreamland.”
"Yes, ma'am." Gillan said respectfully.
"I haven't seen you for half a year. You have made great progress. In these days, I have heard a lot about your deeds. You are really an amazing young man."
Sade He took out a box of women's cigarettes, took out one, and lit it with a kerosene lighter.
Clang, mist——
She took a breath of smoke, opened her red lips slightly, and said with a smile:
"It is true that as Parra said, he is a mystical genius who is rare to see in hundreds of years... It seems that you have learned a lot of true teachings from Parra, such as alchemy, swordsmanship, physical training, and meditation. There are also his most outstanding achievements, the 'Secret Pattern of the Sage' and the refining method of the 'Philosopher's Stone'."
"Ms. Shadai is overrated. This is all due to Teacher Parra's painstaking teachings."< br>
Jilan lowered his head slightly and said with a humble attitude.
Sade looked at the purple-eyed young man in front of her with great interest, and said in a teasing tone:
"I'm very humble. But you are right, only the teacher's careful teaching can Let students also follow the same line. "In addition to the occult knowledge, Mr. Gillan has learned the most important and most useful method of picking up girls from Parra."
“This is his best knowledge.”
“?!” Ji Lan was startled.
He raised his eyes to look at the teacher, only to see cold sweat breaking out on Parra's forehead. I even took off my glasses and wiped them with a cloth, but it seemed that the shiny lenses could not be wiped clean.
"..." Jilan seemed to understand something and remained silent with high emotional intelligence.
Sade glanced sideways at the man next to her, chuckled twice, and said:
"By the way... Sashato, I want to say hello to you, Mr. Gillan."
"?!"
This time, it was Pala's turn to be startled.
The man put on his glasses again and looked at his student in astonishment. The look in his eyes seemed to be asking something, quite surprising.
Sasha...
Hearing this name from Sadai's mouth, Para Celsus immediately thought of a great existence, that is, "The Apostle of May" who was also the apostle of May with Sasha. Shu".
How could Jilan be related to the apostle? !
Besides, it sounds like they have a lot to do with each other!
Jilan opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he heard Sade say again:
"Sasha said that her mark disappeared inexplicably, and she is a little worried about your safety. If it weren't for something important, she would have come over to check it out in person."
"Now it seems that Mr. Gillan has nothing to do with it. What's wrong?"
"Yes, ma'am."
Gilan nodded stiffly.
"Yes." Sade put out her cigarette and raised her eyes and said, "That's good...but how to explain the disappearance of the mark to her? I suggest you think of an excuse early, otherwise I can help you then. I can’t help you.”
"..."
Jilan was speechless.
At this time, there was an extra hand in front of me, holding a clean handkerchief on it.
Looking up, it was delivered by Teacher Parra.
After Jilan took it, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
The master and disciple looked at each other, both sighing.
…
…
After the waiter brought a pot of high-quality hand-brewed coffee and some afternoon tea snacks, Parra ate a cookie. He quickly changed the subject:
“By the way, Jilan, I’ve heard all about the ‘Six-Party Gambling Fight’.”
Parra cast an approving look.
"Well done, very good."
"Furthermore, I also learned from Miss Sade that you...successfully killed the 'Windmill Cat' Pal Solomon's Real image, erasing a trace of his will?"
"Yes, teacher" Jilan nodded.
Hearing this, Para Celsus’ face showed surprise and deep relief.
He took a long breath and said in a rather emotional tone:
"Okay! Very good!"
"I really don't know how to evaluate it! One year, just one year! Good luck! Lan, you have actually completed my two-hundred-year journey!”
“In this way, I can rest assured!”
Jilan could see that the teacher was really excited.
At the same time, I am also happy from the bottom of my heart.
Para took a deep breath, calmed down again, and then said in a deep voice:
"Gilan, this time I went to the front line, and I have already investigated the results... The front line The soldiers were killed and their souls were extradited. It was indeed the work of the 'Eclipse Society', and there was also the shadow of the 'Crescent Moon Society' behind it."
In the teacher's narration, Gilan learned that Parra. For this reason, more than a dozen frontline officers were secretly arrested, ranging from captain level to school level, and even three generals were arrested.
These people were actually possessed by the devil under the protection of the occultists accompanying the army.
These imperial officers were manipulated to secretly collect a large number of soldier remains and secretly perform some evil rituals.
It seems to be used to collect and extradite spirits.
"Sade and I both have some guesses about the purpose of the 'Solar Eclipse Society'. The most likely one is that they want to open a door from dreams to the world."
“Open up the dream and the world?”
Jilan frowned.
"Teacher, this seems to go against the truth."
"That's right." Parra nodded. "But their method is quite cunning. They use the dreams of living people to form a one-way door, thereby releasing a large number of devils."
"This method is still within the scope of truth. After all, 'Hell' itself is located in "The Corridor, the Home of Gods."
"What do they want to do?"
Jilan said solemnly.
"Let the devil army rage across the empire, causing chaos and killing?"
"This should be just one of them. The larger intention is to involve a lot of the empire's energy, thereby causing the empire to lose in the Battle of Bu'ao. . At the same time, use the mass killings caused by the devil to collect more souls to heal the 'Windmill Cat'."
Pala said coldly.
“Although this matter is quite difficult, it is not impossible to prevent and deploy emergency measures in advance... What I am more worried about is that behind this matter, there may be someone in authority taking action.”
"After all, the 'Windmill Cat' is now seriously injured and hiding. Without the intervention of a superior person, the 'Eclipse Society' alone would never be able to achieve this level."
"Teacher, I may have some clues here."
At this time, Gillan took out a perfume bottle.
Pala's face changed slightly when she saw the perfume bottle.
