Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

The red moon was obscured by clouds in the night sky, and the suburb of Backlund immediately fell into complete darkness.

A dark figure stopped in front of a common courtyard in the countryside. He looked around to see if there was no one, and quickly climbed into the courtyard wall.

As soon as the black shadow's feet touched the ground, a hoarse voice in the room asked: "Who?"

"Master Hillman, it's me."

"Oh, Heyman!"

The clouds in the sky fluttered, revealing the red moon again.

Under the moonlight, you can see a middle-aged man standing in the yard with a sincere smile on his face. It is the "scammer" Hyman who escaped from under the noses of Hobert and Xugh.

"Sir, I came to you to inquire about two people. A tall young man who seems to be resistant to the influence of thoughts. A short woman who is very athletic and looks like she can fight well." Heyman Said: "They have been secretly staring at me this afternoon, but fortunately I discovered them and successfully got rid of them."

The people in the room were silent for a few seconds before saying, "Do you suspect that you are the person I sent?"

Heyman smiled sincerely and said: "I have no doubts about anyone, but only you, sir, know some of my secrets."

Hillman sneered: "If I wanted to deal with you, you would be dead by now! You should think about whether you provoked any big shots when you were defrauding."

"Since it's not an adult, it's probably an official Beyonder." Heyman spread his hands: "They ruined the adult's plan, and Zachary is probably under their control.

"I thought about it all night, and there is only one possibility. The ritual you asked Zachary to perform attracted the attention of the official supernatural beings, and they found me through Zachary."

Heyman never thought that Mr. Robin, whom he had defrauded, provided others with clues about him. In his opinion, Mr. Robin and his cousin were both small figures in Backlund, and at most they could Find Zachary, but never put the blame on him.

"Ha!" Hillman laughed sinisterly: "I understand, your aggressiveness just now was just to cover up the failure of the plan!"

He said coldly: "Although Mr. A said that you and I are in a cooperative relationship, and I should have enough respect for you!

"But if you mess up, you always have to be punished."

Before Heyman could argue, a solemn murmur immediately sounded in his ears. Heyman's brain immediately felt like someone was stirring it up with a knife, which immediately made him so painful that he threw his head and hit the wall with a "dong dong dong".

He regrets very much now that he should not have gotten close to these lunatics three years ago in order to get the "acting method".

But now it was too late. He endured the severe discomfort in his head and shouted: "I will train another 'Secret Prayer' so that he can willingly conduct Lord Hillman's experiments!"

The solemn babble began to weaken, and Heiman fell into the corner, breathing heavily, feeling as if he had narrowly escaped death.

Hillman in the room said: "Find a place to hide. If someone is still chasing you, you should know what to do. Don't worry, we will avenge you when the time is right in the future.

“If no one continues to investigate, then train new ‘secret prayers’.

"Go ahead, I won't report your mistake to Mr. A."

Heyman stood up holding on to the wall: "Thank you, thank you for helping to cover it up. I won't make similar mistakes again."

The babble just now made him feel like he was seriously ill. He no longer had the strength to climb over the wall, so he could only hold on to the wall and go out from the courtyard gate.

Heyman had just left the hospital when he stretched out a hand from the shadow of the courtyard wall and closed the door.

…

There are no small towns in the Southern Continent.

The morning dewdrops were crystal clear, sliding slowly on the grass blades, and finally fell to the ground.

Hula~

A young woman with shaggy hair and somewhat slovenly clothes was running around in the grass humming an off-key children's song. Dewdrops even stained her trouser legs, but she didn't care and seemed to be having a great time.

Elliot caught up with her with a smile and helped her pick off the grass blades on her head: "I want to go out and listen to the teacher."

She is Elliot's sister Moira. Because the extraordinary qualities in the family are limited, generally a family can only have one child who can take the "lawyer" potion at the age of 12.

When Moira was 12 years old, she gave up the opportunity to take potions to her younger brother.

So under the torture of crazy roaring, she was like other family members who had not taken the magic potion: crazy!

After becoming a madman, the crazy roar seems to disappear, but as long as the symptoms of madness improve slightly, the crazy roar will come back.

Therefore, the madmen of the Balk family will remain mad forever.

After the Balk family settled in the non-existent town, the family bought many slaves and took care of the madmen in the family.

And those who stay awake, like Elliot, leave town to fight some extraordinary battles to provide the family with income so that the family can continue to operate for a long time.

Sometimes they are hired by warlords to fight, and sometimes they are hired by various churches in the southern continent to do some dirty work.

As Extraordinaries of the "lawyer" path who have good combat effectiveness after Sequence 8, they never have to worry about not having a commission.

The only thing they don't accept is the work of the Rose School. Of course, the Rose School will not ask them for entrustment, because although the Balk family and the Rose School are not adjacent to each other, they are mortal enemies who will fight with their lives if they meet.

Elliot looked at his sister: "I think I may have found a way to save the family. Even if it means sacrificing myself, I will work hard to break away from the family's curse. You will be fine, and everyone will be fine."

At this time, someone in the distance shouted: "Elliot! It's time to go!"

Elliot shook his sister's hand, which was covered with weeds and dirt, and left without looking back.

Moira watched her brother's figure walking further and further away with a silly smile, and two lines of tears flowed out of the corners of her eyes unconsciously.

…

At 8:10 in the morning, Gaspin Street in Backlund's East District.

Hobert, who was wearing a light windbreaker and carrying a cane, checked his pocket watch again. Miss "Arbiter" was already ten minutes late.

Another taxi drove up, the door opened, and Hobert finally saw Hugh.

Xio jumped out of the carriage: "Sorry, I'm late."

Hobert smiled and said: "No, it's just that I came early."

He saw Xio staring at the two dark circles: "Didn't you get a good rest yesterday?"

Xio looked around with some vigilance: "Yes, I can't sleep well every time I change the pillow."

It was not like Forsi imagined that seven or eight Beyonders would control him as soon as he got off the carriage.

Naturally, Hobert would not have thought that Xio and Forsi changed their residences overnight and took turns resting until late at night.

Hugh and Hobert walked side by side for some distance. Hobert suddenly turned around. On the street behind him were only workers walking quickly to work and homeless people slumped in the corner.

Hobert looked natural, but whispered to Xio with certainty: "We are being watched."

Xio was slightly startled. Yes, someone was staring at them, but the person following far behind had worse dark circles than her, and his skin was also worse. He looked like he hadn't slept for three days and three nights. Forth.

Thanks to [Ji Wanxi] for the 100-point reward.
