The Modern Age of the Mysterious Chapter 97

In the night fog, the association's motorcade slowly drove into the "Silent Street" downstairs in the Explorer Center.

This place is also shrouded in night fog. The hall, which is usually lit at night, is now brightly lit.

"The association has activated the emergency plan..." Moonlight whispered, "If it wasn't for the Moses Ascetic Order to take action first, it is estimated that more than one Ace-level explorer would go to Thirteenth Street..."

His gaze turned to the window: "It seems that during this period of time, there are quite a few Ace-classes staying in New York City."

Following Moonlight's line of sight, Sean passed through the fog and saw the powerful explorers who were on standby in the association.

Crossed by a car parked on the side of the road, Sean saw a young woman sitting in the driver's seat on the black sedan. She was not wearing a mask. Impatient to go up.

In her co-pilot, sat a male lion with red eyes, the back seat near Sean was a scarecrow with an extremely terrifying face, and the passenger on the other side was very burly and could not see his true face. , I can only see that his chest seems to be burning with a fire...

"Ace class." Sean narrowed his eyes, feeling a strong sense of oppression.

At the end of the empty silent street, a biplane was parked, and a man in a pilot jacket leaned against the plane. In the thick fog, only the silhouette of the man and the plane could be seen.

Strangely enough, Sean could see that the biplane had a spiritual response - the plane was a spiritual "creature".

"...It's Ace-class again."

The car stopped downstairs in the Explorer's Center. Sean got out of the car and saw a figure in a windbreaker and a jazz hat standing in the fog not far away. His hand was on his lips, and a red cigarette **** went out.

The other party was just smoking, but Sean felt as if he was being stared at by countless gunmen. There was a strange sense of oppression on the man's body... very similar to the bartender in the Brimstone Tavern.

"Well...it's still Ace-level." Sean could feel that these top explorers who were on standby in the fog were a little dissatisfied that they couldn't sleep well tonight.

A staff member of the association pushed a stretcher with wheels. At this time, Catherine was still in a coma, and several members of the association put her on a stretcher and pushed her into the explorer hall.

There is a group of people waiting in the hall. Catherine now needs special treatment for the soul, and the relevant equipment and personnel are in the building. Sean and Moonlight watched people put Catherine into the elevator. They looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

"You guys are quite capable." Austin hugged his chest and said lukewarmly, "Nearly half of the high-level combat power in New York City has been awakened by you, and please think that you are a saint...

"I hope you can 'well' report this time," Austin slenderly backed and led the two of them to another elevator. "Otherwise, the Holy Court will definitely be very angry with us."

Although Austin's face looked a little stern, Sean could hear the meaning of "you try to report frankly, the association will cover you up".

Inquiries about events are still conducted separately. Sean was taken to a separate room, and the person in charge of the questioning was still Richard Norman, who was wearing the mask of "Martyr of Truth".

When Sean saw this modest colleague, his bad mood recovered a little because he was about to be questioned.

Considering that he had to stay up late, Richard even thoughtfully asked the staff to make strong coffee and enjoy it together.

Sean picked up the coffee cup, blew the sugar-free and dairy-free espresso in the cup, took a sip, and began to tell about the undercurrent street trip.

Sean deliberately skipped the details of Catherine's search for her mother Jennifer's whereabouts in Wannu Cave and her discovery of the true identity of the gambler Jock.

Moonlight didn't know about these two things, so it doesn't matter if there is no communication in advance.

On the way back to the association, Sean decided to weigh the whole thing.

First of all, the association encourages explorers to complete those missions without official bounties. The case of missing organs on the Thirteenth Avenue is such a task. Due to the special identity of the deceased, it has not received the attention of the divine court and the association.

However, after all, Sean and his entourage have purified a "sinker" with extremely bad influence, and this achievement cannot be ignored.

After talking about how he purified "Gambler Jock" through gambling, Richard Norman was quite excited: "Mr. Sean, according to the quest records, Jock is a sinker and is the target of the King class. Trouble..." He shook his head in disbelief, "You can solve such a big trouble this time, this is a very rare achievement!"

Sean knew it in his heart: "If you really use force to purify Jock, even if there are a dozen of them at that time, they will all be buried in the undercurrent street - using gambling to solve a fallen person, this is a very special case.

"Even so..." He smiled bitterly in his heart, "I almost lost as a lonely ghost wandering in the undercurrent street forever..."

Looking back on the final narrow victory now, at that time, I still felt a little scared after being carried away due to excessive concentration.

Sean was not immersed in Richard's compliments, not only because the process was too dangerous to look back on, but also because he was now very worried about Catherine's condition and the possible punishment.

Every step in their line is worthy of praise. The only thing that is more sensitive is that in order to get rid of the pursuit of Finks, Catherine used the "forbidden spell", and this forbidden behavior did almost cause the "Cthulhu Descent" serious situation .

When Catherine couldn't get out of the role, in order to prevent the situation from getting worse, Moonlight used Quest Poker to inform the risk control department of the association as per the captain's request from the beginning.

In addition, the Moses Ascetic Order and the staff of the association have witnessed the process of Catherine's escape from the role of the Lord in Red.

Therefore, Sean has no way to hide anything about this matter. He can only truthfully explain the huge sacrifice the captain made after they were cornered by Finks.

When telling this passage, Sean could clearly see that the faces of Richard Norman, who was listening, and the "First Witness" who recorded it, showed expressions of surprise and admiration.

A explorer who dares to sacrifice himself before the crisis will win the admiration of almost every colleague.

After finishing the story, Sean asked Richard directly: "Please tell me, what kind of punishment will Catherine receive?"

When he asked this question, Sean was quite nervous: if this undercurrent street trip ruined Catherine's career as a explorer, he would consider himself guilty.

"Finding Jennifer is one of Catherine's life goals. If she can't continue to be a explorer, her pursuit will become more difficult..."

Richard Norman patted the back of the hand of the young man beside him who was recording the conversation with a typewriter, indicating that his next words should not be recorded.

The young Witness seemed to trust Norman so much that he took his hands off the green typewriter.

"As the inquirer and the representative of the association, I don't have to, nor can I answer your question." Richard spread his hands, "However, in my opinion, your action has fully demonstrated the courage and courage of the explorers. Cooperative spirit. From a personal standpoint, I am willing to tell you how the association has handled similar incidents before.

"Miss Hailey will most likely be dealt with like this, but everything is subject to the final decision of the association."

Sean nodded gratefully.

"Because it involves the plot of 'emergency avoidance', Miss Hailey's actions will not be considered malicious.

"So her quest status and level will most likely be retained.

"However, she has caused actual risks and damages after all. Even if the association does not punish her, the divine court will make a strong request for punishment. Therefore, her reward for this mission will be deducted as punishment."

Sean breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: this is much better than the result he imagined~www.mtlnovel.com~Richard straightened his mask and continued: "Miss Catherine will be carried out after she wakes up. A month-long closed observation to ensure the evil spirits do not leave a symbolic or literal 'seed' in her.

"Also, since you didn't fulfill your duty of dissuasion before Miss Hailey used the forbidden spell, there will be a certain punishment... maybe the reward will be halved."

Considering that this is a self-recruitment mission, and it has caused a relatively bad impact, Sean has no extravagant hope of getting the reward of this mission. Hearing Richard's reply and knowing that he might get paid, Sean was even a little surprised.

After that, Richard Norman conducted a detailed inquiry about Henry's disappearance. Henry's death itself was due to his own will, and Sean had nothing to hide, so when he was added to the team, he had other plans, and he lost his soul for a so-called "molar dice". come out.

Of course, he didn't mention the fact that the ivory dice that didn't actually have any magic power was on him.

After the inquiry, Richard Norman took the initiative to shake Sean's hand: "This is the second time we meet.

"Last time you wore the mask of the 'No Name'...

Norman paused and said seriously: "You are already an excellent explorer. I can feel that over time, you can grow into an outstanding explorer. I hope you will act more prudently and protect yourself. The Association is very much looking forward to your future performance.”

Sean believed that Richard Norman represented not only himself, but also the attitude of the association.

In short, he knew that he was now a potential newcomer that the association paid attention to.
