Chapter 456 Theft
At night, a fierce battle was going on in the church square of Adria. The members of the Color Sand Society who came to steal had a fierce fight with the official extraordinary people who were guarding here. During the fierce fight, a man from the Sand Society successfully slipped into the Pure Flow Church during the chaos and came smoothly to the Crown Hall, where he could find what the Sand Society had always wanted.
In the spacious Crown Hall, the young man from the Haisha Society walked quickly back and forth. His eyes kept scanning the rows of glass display cases, looking at the exquisite exhibits one after another in the display cases, and staring at the paper label on the glass case, reading the content on it. What the young man needed was to find the name of a specific donor from the information on these labels.
"Hased... Sheikh... Karim... Ainni... got it..."
Suddenly, the young man seemed to have found what he was looking for. He stopped beside a display case, and after repeatedly confirming that the donor on the label was correct, he raised his hand and punched the glass case. With a loud bang, the glass case was smashed into pieces. The man picked up a necklace inside without hesitation and put it into the cloth bag he was carrying.
Then the young man continued to walk through the Crown Hall, looking for the next donor, who was also a display case of Ainni. Not long after, he found a display case with a wine glass with that name on it. The man did not hesitate, and smashed the glass again, and put the wine glass into his bag.
Just as the young man was about to continue looking for Aiunni's donations, a sound suddenly came from above him.
"Who's down there?"
Hearing the sound, the young man looked up in astonishment, and then he saw that on the top of the Crown Hall, on the small platform where Emmanuel's crown was originally stored, there were two figures in uniforms and holding guns. They were members of the Hidden Guard responsible for the close protection of Emmanuel's crown. After the battle on the square started, they lowered the curtain door of the exclusive attic on the top of the church, blocking the light from Emmanuel's crown to the outside and blocking the direct access to the platform from the roof. Now facing the young man who broke in from below, they also directly raised the rifles in their hands.
The man who didn't expect that there would be someone above him dodged when he saw the black hole of the gun pointed at him. The team member above pulled the trigger and the violent gunshot resounded throughout the Crown Hall. The bullet flew towards the young man at a high speed, but because the man relied on the soul of the wolf, he sensed the danger in advance and dodged the incoming bullet with his sharp body.
The guards on the platform kept shooting downwards. In a moment, countless glass display cases in the Crown Hall were pierced and shattered by bullets. The young man was gradually forced back by the flying bullets. While dodging, he was gradually forced into a corner of the Crown Hall. In that dark corner, a pair of eyes were staring at him.
Just as the young man approached the corner, a shadow suddenly shot out from the darkness in the corner and attacked the young man from behind. The young man, who inherited the wolf's keen perception ability, sensed the threat behind him and dodged in time. After dodging the sharp slash of a dagger, his eyes looked at the shadow that attacked him at close range, and the scene he saw made him stare wide-eyed.
The one who attacked the young man was a slim female figure wearing a hooded mask and a tight black dress. At this moment, she was staring at the young man from a close distance. The young man could even clearly see the sharp vertical pupils in the woman's eyes that were obviously not those of a human, and he obviously knew the other party's identity.
"Also... a spirit-possessed master?!"
Ignoring the astonishment in the young man's eyes, the woman with cat-like vertical pupils saw that her attack missed, and immediately tightly grasped the dagger in her hand and swung at the young man again. Seeing this, the young man suddenly took a step back, and then pulled out a dagger from his waist to fight back.
Holding a dagger in his hand, the young man stared intently at the woman in front of him. She rushed forward with a nimble figure and slashed at him with the dagger in her hand. Her movements were very swift. Faced with this situation, the young man blocked with his knife. With another clear sound, the weapons of both parties collided.
䀴At this moment, the young man felt a sudden strong pain in the part of his hand that was in contact with the iron guard of the dagger. Stimulated by this sudden pain, the young man suddenly let go of the hand holding the knife and took a few steps back, his whole body trembling.
At this moment, a burst of gunfire suddenly rang out from above the Crown Hall. A bullet was fired from the gun in the hands of the team members above, and directly hit the young man who was stiffened by the electric shock, piercing his chest. Then the young man fell down with his eyes wide open.
Seeing the young man fall, the masked woman put down the blade in her hand, and then came to the young man's body. After confirming that he was indeed dead, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Phew, Miss Dorothy's support is always so reassuring..."
Nephnis murmured so, then looked towards the platform above the Crown Hall, where the two members of the Deep Anchor Team smiled and gave her a thumbs-up, then spoke.
"Hurry up, we are running out of time."
The team members on the platform said this. The two of them had been ambushed and electrocuted by Nefernis earlier. Now they were actually living puppets controlled by Dorothy.
Listening to the team members' words, Nephnis nodded, then he leaned down and picked up the young man's bag, took out the things inside and put them into the place he had prepared. Then, Nephnis held the two bags and turned his gaze to the display cabinets in the Crown Hall in front of him.
Immediately, Nefnis began to do the same thing as the dead young man. She began to carry the bag and quickly check all the display cases in the entire Crown Hall. As soon as she saw the donor on the label was Avenir, she would smash the label and put the contents into the bag. A few minutes later, the entire Crown Hall was ransacked by Nefnis, and all Avenir's donations were put into Nefnis' bag.
䀴At the same time, the team members' puppets above were not idle either. Standing on the top platform, they saw up close the luxurious crown that was hanging for display and emitting a strange light.
While Nefernis was quickly searching for Ainni's donations below, the team puppets operated the mechanism on the platform to carefully remove Emmanuel's crown from the hanging base, and then used a piece of blackout cloth that was originally prepared nearby and was specially used to cover the crown to cover the hanging base after the crown was removed, giving people the illusion that Emmanuel's crown was still there, but was just covered.
Then, the team member puppet used a small piece of blackout cloth to wrap up the glowing Emmanuel Crown, covering up all the light that was spontaneously emitted from it.
When the team puppets had almost done all this, Nephnis below finally collected all the donations from Eunni and put them in a bag. But that was not all. After collecting all the donations from Eunni, she took out the bag of the young man, and then ran to the next exhibition hall outside the Crown Hall, looking at some other donations that were not from Eunni, and then broke the display case without hesitation, and put all the exhibits inside into the bag of the Haisha Society. After a while, Nephnis had filled half a bag with various collections, but none of them were from Eunni.
Afterwards, Nefernis quickly returned to the Crown Hall. At this time, the team member puppet on the top platform also threw down the wrapped Emmanuel crown. After catching it, Nefernis tore it into the bag of Haisha Society and placed it at the bottom.
After placing Emmanuel's crown, Nephonice came to the body of the young man, placed his own bag next to him, and took his hand to hold the mouth of the bag. At this time, one of the team member puppets above had climbed down the ladder. He came to a place not far in front of the young man, threw his gun aside and fell down, then immediately regained his unconscious state, creating a scene of dying together with the young man.
After finishing this series of operations, the team member puppet still on the platform smiled and saluted Nefernis below. Nefernis nodded after seeing him, then quickly walked out of the Crown Hall with a bunch of Aiunni's donations, and then found a secret location to sneak out of the Pure Flow Church, and quickly left this dangerous place. At the same time, the last puppet team member in the Pure Flow Church also fell directly to the ground, regained his unconscious state, and looked no different from dead.
