Chapter 3
The man had not been busy in the room for long when the hurried and irregular footsteps coming from the corridor woke him up from his work. He quickly opened the door of the room and helped his boss, who was covered in scars, in.
"Boss, what happened? How did you get injured like this?" The man carefully helped a lean and sharp-looking man to the bed and asked.
"Those old bastards of the Origin Tracing Sect really need a wake-up call." The man allowed him to take off his clothes and check his injuries. "Hiss—elk!!!"
The elk took back the cotton swab that was poking the other person's wound and said with a smile: "Boss, I promise I didn't mean it."
The man didn't answer, but just stared at him dimly.
"Don't look at me like that. I still need to treat your wound."
In the room, a black wolf appeared silently, walked around the room impatiently, and sniffed something along the wall with its snout from time to time.
The elk was concentrating on treating the wound. When he turned around to get a bandage, he saw the black wolf lying at the door of the suite, scratching the door with its claws.
"Boss, you should buy your spirit a scratching board," the man began, studying the man's expression as he spoke.
"I don't think he's doing this to sharpen his claws." He glanced at the elk, jumped off the bed, and limped to the cubicle door.
Elk: It’s all over…
At this time, the kitten stretched its whole body into a cat strip, lying on the door panel, trying hard to reach the door handle - it heard the voice of that person outside the door, and the cat wanted to go out and follow him.
Moreover, there seemed to be something special that attracted its attention and made the cat want to get closer.
Squeak—bang—
Meow--!
The door opened inward, and the kitten immediately controlled its body that was blown away and stabilized it on the ground.
"You need to explain to me what this is." The man walked into the room, first looked around at the furnishings, then slowly approached the little animal squatting on the ground, and lifted it up to face the elk.
"It's a cat, boss." The elk tried to reach out and take the cat back, but the man dodged him.
"Cat?" The man placed the small thing, with only the fur on its head, on his palm and examined it carefully. "Whose cat is so mentally and physically ugly?"
The corner of the elk's mouth trembled, and he said, "This is not a spirit body, it's a real cat we found at the door."
"You mean, you found it at the door?"
"yes."
"The entrance to the base or the gate?"
"At the entrance of the base."
At the base gate...
The man narrowed his eyes and looked at the "special" looking cat with a sullen expression.
The Dark Blade is an organization comprised of Sentinel Guides of Rank A and above. Because the social climate in the Empire is not hospitable to high-ranking Sentinel Guides, nearly all A-rank Guides and Sentinels who awaken often learn about and join the organization through various media outlets. However, in this era, few individuals are capable of awakening, let alone humans capable of a high-level awakening. Therefore, despite being affiliated with the Imperial Military, the Dark Blade maintains its position as the third leading faction, alongside the Tech Faction and the Origin Tracing Faction.
Yan Xuanjin is the founder of the Dark Blade Organization and the only S-level Sentinel in the empire. Every member of the Dark Blade Organization must be examined by him before they are eligible to join.
Due to the special nature of the Dark Blade organization, in order to avoid some disputes and right and wrong, their base is set up very secretly, and there is a gate before the entrance of the base, and only sentry guides of level A and above can pass through.
This cat not only found the location of the base, but also passed through the base gate. It looks like the spirit of a high-level sentinel or guide.
"Anyway, Boss, I haven't detected any traces of mental fluctuations from it," the elk said, interrupting Yan Xuanjin's thoughts. "Also, after observing it for half a day, it hasn't shown any signs of trying to communicate with its master."
"Got it." Yan Xuanjin stared at the cat's azure eyes for a while, then glanced up at the elk's anxious look. He still didn't choose to throw it away. He just said, "From now on, I will keep it with me at all times to observe it. If there are any suspicious signs..."
The elk's eyes lit up immediately, he straightened his back, and replied simply, "I understand, Boss."
"Now, treat my wound within ten minutes." Yan Xuanjin raised his hand and glanced at the mechanical watch on his wrist. "They're still waiting for me to review the situation."
