In the downtown area, at the Half Awake Bar, an unexpected guest arrived.

At that time, the bar had not yet opened for business. Only a row of spotlights along the wall were turned on, and the rest was shrouded in darkness.

The bartenders moved methodically through the darkness, cleaning up the mess from last night's revelry and preparing for the upcoming noisy midnight.

Khufu was alone at the bar, happily mixing himself a strange cocktail.

Suddenly, a tall shadow appeared in front of him, blocking out the only glimmer of light.

The visitor took the glass of semi-finished wine on the table and drank it all in one gulp, leaving bloody red stains on the corners of his mouth.

Khufu watched the cup being snatched away, picked up the towel beside him to wipe his fingers, then slowly looked up.

The man opposite was wearing a stiff high-collared windbreaker and a tall felt hat. He had grey eyes, thin lips, and features that were somewhat Caucasian in depth. His pale skin made him look like a vampire from Western legends, with an innate aristocratic temperament.

"Did last night's mission fail?" Khufu asked.

The man paused as he took out the cigar box and looked at him: "Are you so well-informed?"

"If the hunt is successful, you should be at home dividing the spoils with your brothers and sisters, vying for favor in front of your uncle, instead of running to me." Khufu's eyes swept across the collar of the other's shirt stained with lipstick. It seemed that the other's mood was ruined in the joy, and he didn't dare to run back home to endure the storm, so he ran all the way to him to complain.

"There was quite a commotion last night," Khufu said cryptically.

"Have a drink?"

The man threw the cigar box onto the table irritably. "Martini, thank you."

Khufu raised his hand, and immediately a handsome bartender wearing a white shirt and black vest came over.

"Make this guest a martini."

The bartender nodded and began to mix the drink in an orderly manner.

The man said, "Last night's mission failed, a complete failure! Leah died, the ancestral ring of our family was lost, and nearly half of the psychics that the family carefully cultivated were also killed. My uncle is very angry. I don't know how the board of directors will deal with it."

Khufu listened quietly.

"Now the strongholds of the Lotus Tower in Tonghua City, Wuhai City, Lingnao City and other cities have all been eradicated. Only Kyoto received the news in advance, and several people escaped. Their many years of operation in China ended in failure. I heard that the US Embassy also lost an important cursed object."

"The union president and vice president were invited to have tea by the authorities early this morning and have not yet left the headquarters."

Although the government has been checked and balanced by the financial groups in recent years, the trade unions still dare not oppose it openly, but only pretend to obey in private, and they are quite scheming.

Hu Fu looked at the gloomy expression on the other side and chuckled. "Chris, let's not talk about the intrigues in your family. The people in the consortium are now divided and fighting against each other. You are taking on a hot potato this time. Once the board of directors loses trust in your family--"

He pointed out without hesitation what Chris was most worried about, and the other party's face became even uglier.

They have a highly paid team of data experts who are constantly collecting clues about the Night Watch. They have concluded that a psychic of Ji Qing's strength is considered to be at the pyramid level among the Night Watch. The recently active group of Night Watch are obviously one level weaker, but are not invincible.

If the Night's Watch really has so many top-notch psychics, why are there only three special titles, [Moon Chaser], [Agent], and [Enforcer], listed on the global rankings?

It's just bluffing.

Ji Qing is an enhancement-type psychic who only has ghost patterns planted on his body. If he encounters a curse-type psychic, he will easily fall into madness and mutation.

So during this siege, Chris's family specially arranged many people with special abilities to restrain Ji Qing.

Who knew such a monster would suddenly appear?

The untouched primeval forest in the wetland park became the other party's back garden.

The commotion that night was seen by all citizens of Tonghua City. Late at night, videos of the "East Suburb Strange Phenomenon" from various angles were circulated wildly on the Internet, quickly exceeding 10,000 views.

People were speculating whether there was another strange story in Tonghua City. Such an exaggerated phenomenon was obviously of a high level...

Just when everyone was worried, rumors soon spread.

It was a civilian organization of supernatural beings that was fighting against the Night's Watch, and the bean vine leading to the clouds was the masterpiece of the Night's Watch.

When people with special abilities across the country and even the world learned that the plant that caused people to have gigantic fear for no reason was actually a wood-type special ability in the Night Watch, they almost dropped their jaws in shock.

When did wood-type mutants become so powerful?

Did your plant department secretly modify the parameters without anyone knowing?

Those with wood-type abilities were dumbfounded when they suddenly received transfer notices from above.

What can I do? They don't know how to do it! It's so complicated.

"Uncle is going to offer a huge reward. Anyone who can provide the whereabouts of the three Night Watchmen last night, or clues to the Night Watch headquarters, will get everything they want. There should be many bounty hunters and assassin mercenaries joining the search."

"But who knows where the Night's Watch headquarters is?"

Chris sipped his martini and complained to Khufu's round face.

"Leah is dead, and I am one step closer to succession. But if my uncle knew that I was the one who instigated her to take on the mission..." He thought of his uncle's iron-blooded hand, and shuddered subconsciously, "He will not let me go."

He trusted Khufu very much, not only because this guy was smooth and capable, but also because he helped him give advice and won his uncle's attention.

Hu Fu's current status and assets in the consortium are not as good as his family's, but he has control over the wealth of the Su and Hu families at a young age. He is not like the second-generation rich man who still competes for favor in front of his uncle, begging for a little family property, and whose inheritance rights are also at the back.

Recently, there have been a series of incidents within the consortium. The Su family was one of them, and Liang Yanhong was the second. Both of them died in strange and tragic circumstances.

People's hearts are unstable. These chaebols have shady backgrounds. Rumors are spreading behind the scenes that rivals within the consortium are eliminating dissidents. The top management of the board of directors suspects that someone is secretly doing something. Not long ago, an internal investigation found many young people who concealed the truth and secretly awakened to become people with special abilities.

The consortium does not forbid these family tycoons from privately cultivating people with special abilities.

But who can blame you for such a coincidence? The Night Watch had just announced that they would give away a supernatural catalyst potion.

The consortium tried their best to track down the lucky guy but couldn't find him. He was hiding so deeply, so his identity might be not simple, or even... one of their own.

No
