Chapter 205 Emergency Arrangements



Klein subconsciously put both hands into his pockets, one holding the "Yangyan Talisman" and the other holding the "Azik Copper Whistle".

He keenly noticed that the latter's extraordinary cool but soft touch had disappeared, as if it was being suppressed by an invisible force, while the former was still warm and reassuring.

With this peace of mind, Klein entered a semi-meditative state, discarding his panic and no longer harboring any hope.

He turned his head, winked at Leonard Mitchell, and pursed his lips at Megaos.

Then, relying on the ability of the "Joker", he controlled his expression and smiled at Megose:

"Would you like coffee, tea, or nothing at all?"

Megose stroked her belly and said as if she was listening to something:

"A cup of warm water. I suddenly want to talk to you about Lanevus. I feel like you know a lot."

"Who told you this?" Leonard was no longer as carefree and casual as usual, and his smile was quite stiff.

Megose suddenly chuckled and said:

"My child told me that he knows a lot and he is very smart!"

…Klein resisted the urge to swear, turned and walked towards the partition, and signaled Leonard to steady Megose.

Leonard raised the corners of his mouth and pointed at the sofa area.

"That's exactly what I wanted to say. We also want to talk to you about Lanevus."

Luo Shan at the reception desk looked at all this with a bit of bewilderment and confusion, and suddenly realized that she didn't seem to need to do anything.

Klein quickly walked through the partition and directly unlocked the door of Dunn Smith's office, which he then closed with a bang.

He looked at Dunn, who was surprised and then solemn, and said in a deep voice:

"Captain, something big has happened!"

"I know what the 'bomb' Lanevus is talking about!"

Dunn stood up and pointed outside.

"Megose?"

He obviously heard Leonard's surprised voice, but he couldn't see the two players' faces covered in sweat and fear.

Klein nodded and explained very quickly:

"I tried to use my psychic vision to observe Megose and confirm her mental condition, but my spirit stopped me from trying, and kept telling me not to look! If I look, I will die!"

"This reminds me of a saying, 'Don't look directly at a god.' Even if the baby in Megose's belly is not an evil god trying to be born, or the offspring of an evil god, it must be a mythical creature."

"Captain, thinking about the black altar in Hood Eugen's memory, his ability as a 'psychologist', and the miserable world described in Lanevus's letter, I think my guess is very likely close to the truth: Lanevus obtained the ritual magic related to the 'True Creator' from the members of the Aurora Society. With the help of Hood Eugen, he made Megose a carrier of a certain power. This power will grow rapidly with the help of the resentment, repression, and gloom around the factory until it matures. In other words, the ritual itself must rely on these resentment, repression, and gloom to succeed!"

Dunn thought seriously for more than ten seconds, then nodded solemnly:

"I immediately asked for help from the Cathedral. I hope the baby in Megose's belly can still wait!"

"Of course, we can't just do nothing. Tell Leonard to keep Megose stable and try not to let her leave the company. Then notify Mrs. Aureliana and Roxanne and have all non-combatants evacuate!"

"I will go behind the Chanis Gate after I send the telegram. We must prepare for the worst, that is, the helpers from the Temple have not arrived yet, and the baby in Megose's belly is about to be born."

"As the captain of the Tingen Market Night Squad, I have the right to use Saint Selina's ashes in times of crisis!"

The ashes of Saint Selina... the ashes of a high-sequence expert... the seal core of the Chanis Gate... Klein calmed down a little, and his thoughts turned:

"Captain, we can also ask for help from the Mandated Punisher and the Mechanical Heart. They should also have similar relics!"

At this point, Klein suddenly had a flash of inspiration and muttered to himself:

"The Lanevus case was previously handled by the Mandated Punisher... One of their senior members happened to be out of control during that time, so Old Neil and I helped to handle it..."

In the whisper, his voice suddenly became louder:

"Captain, can you ask the Mandated Punishers again whether the member who lost control earlier has followed or monitored Megose?"

"You suspect that he lost control because of the contamination from the baby in Megose's belly? When they re-investigated, they were also responsible for Megose..." Dunn replied solemnly, "We can't delay any longer. You go find Mrs. Aureliana and the others. I will hurry and send a telegram to the Sanctuary for help, then to the Mandated Punisher and the Mechanical Heart. Yes, I will also send a telegram to the police department, asking them to find an excuse to evacuate the surrounding residents."

"Okay." Klein took a few steps outside and suddenly remembered something: Megose's "visit" was so sudden and so coincidental.

The red chimney house suddenly flashed through his mind, and he turned around and said to Dunn:

"Captain, there is one more thing. Do you remember those coincidences I mentioned? There are clues to the Antigonus family's notes in the house opposite the kidnapping case. Riel Biber did not escape Tingen in time. Henas Vincent was exposed because of a coincidence. Another Aurora member happened to meet me and lost his life directly. And so on and so forth."

"These coincidences are relatively hidden and difficult to detect, but today, Megose suddenly came to our house after we found Lanevus' letter. It was too obvious and too direct. This coincidence is naked and undisguised! I think the person behind this may be on stage soon!"

"Also, why did Madam Sharon take the risk of killing Councillor Maynard? Is this also a 'coincidence'?"

Dunn thought for a moment and replied seriously:

"I'll add that to my telegram."

Klein didn't waste any more time, he opened the door and walked directly into the accountant's room opposite.

Mrs. Orianna was working on the budget for the last three months of the year. She wanted to finish it ahead of time, lest the captain forget about it again and fail to submit it in time. When she saw Klein come in, she smiled and greeted him:

"Little Moretti, what do you want to be reimbursed this time?"

Klein exhaled and said:

"Mrs. Orianna, today is a day off. Come home immediately."

Aureanna was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at the solemn face opposite her.

After a few seconds, she stood up in a panic and said:

"OK."

Klein quickly added, "Go to the civilian staff office and the armory and tell everyone else about this. I'll notify Roxanne."

"Okay!" Orianna packed up without doing anything, picked up her bag, and ran to the door of the accounting office in small steps.

After entering the corridor, she turned around, looked at Klein deeply, drew a crimson moon on her chest and said:

"You will be blessed by the goddess!"

Thank you… Klein responded silently and walked through the partition to the reception hall. He saw Leonard chatting stiffly with Megose about various things about Lanevus.

Klein moved closer to Roxanne, took out the cup, picked up the thermos, and whispered:

"Go home, it's dangerous here, come back tomorrow."

Luo Shan opened her mouth in shock, but then slowly closed it when she saw Klein's serious expression.

She packed her things for more than ten seconds, picked up her bag, and left the reception desk.

As she passed Klein, she bit her lip and said in a low voice:

"In fact, as much as I hate others becoming Beyonders, I admire Nighthawks as much as I do..."

…………

After watching all the civilian staff evacuate Blackthorn Security Company, Klein brought the warm water to Megose, bent down and put it down, saying:

"I have something else to take care of, come back later."

When he stood up, he leaned close to Leonard's ear and said from his throat:

"Hold her steady."

Leonard bared his teeth, grinned, and continued chatting stiffly. He found that Megose was gradually getting a little irritable, and her mind was sometimes focused and sometimes distracted.

Klein returned to the captain's office and found that Dunn had already gone underground. On the table was a translated call from the "Manufactured Punishers" team:

"Yes. We'll be right there."

Yes... the out-of-control "Made Punisher" was indeed because of Megose... Klein walked to the corridor with difficulty, not knowing whether he was waiting for the captain to come out with the holy ashes, or waiting for the arrival of reinforcements.

Sigh, I wonder if all high-level warriors know how to teleport... I guess not... He turned around a few times, and suddenly felt his body and mind become peaceful, and found that the gas lamps on both sides were all dyed with a dark blue color.

In the darkness and depth, Dunn walked out along the underground stairs, holding a palm-sized square urn in one hand.

The box seemed to be made of pure silver, but also gave people the feeling of bone. It was carved with mysterious patterns. The closer it got to him, the colder Klein felt, as if the coolness was quickly seeping into his blood.

Dunn’s face was illuminated by an icy blue light, and he said to Klein:

"Go to Chanis Gate and get a seal with a strong offensive power. You can choose which one based on your own situation. I have already told Xijia and the internal guards to be careful to avoid hidden dangers. There are three '2' level seals, which are..."

"Well, I took away Saint Selina's ashes, and Xijia and the inner watchers can no longer leave their positions."

At this moment, Frye and Luo Yao, who was on leave, were helping at Coenley's house to prepare for the funeral, while the bishop of St. Selena's Church went to the countryside to preach.

“Okay.” Klein didn’t hesitate and turned to walk underground.

When he was about to reach the intersection, he suddenly stopped, because he knew that most of the seals behind the Chanis Gate in Tingen City were of level "3", and it would be difficult to affect the baby in Megose's belly, which was at least a mythical creature.

"The mutated Sun Holy Emblem should work, but it will take too long and won't work at all... There are only three Level 2 Sealed Artifacts in Tingen City. They are all very dangerous and can easily kill you... I guess their power is about the same as my Sun Flame Talisman. Well, I won't have to worry about anything later. I'll use the Sun Flame Talisman without hesitation! This is only stronger than a Level 2 Sealed Artifact. After all, it contains the power of divine blood..." Klein's thoughts turned, and he nodded barely noticeably.

He touched the "Yangyan Talisman" and "Azik Copper Whistle" in his pocket again, and was surprised to find that the latter's tactile sensation had recovered.

Regardless of whether it was useful or not, Klein immediately took out the paper and pen he used for divination and quickly wrote a short letter:

"My fate is not harmonious. The guy who took your child's skull has appeared. He 'arranged' Megose to enter the Blackthorn Security Company at 36 Zotland Street. Megose is likely pregnant with the evil god's offspring."

“The situation is critical.”

After putting away his pen and folding the letter, Klein took out his copper whistle at the crossroads and blew it. He then saw a huge skeleton messenger appear in front of him.
