New Gods of North America

In the evening, Wayne first returned to his dorm, finished his leftover nutritious lunch.

Then, before it got dark, he went for a walk by the academy's lake.

Although Doug followed Wayne's instructions and didn't bring any new food, he still took the old one back to Parker to heat it up, so the meatloaf was still warm when Wayne ate it.

The academy's lake wasn't too small, but Seth's contact specified the area near the woods by the lake.

It wasn't too close to the water, which spared the worry of the other party jumping in.

Except for rest days and holidays, there weren't many people with the leisure to come here, so it was a good place for students to relax or for campus couples to meet up.

Wayne roughly estimated that if a shot were fired here, the security patrol wouldn't be able to arrive before the person was subdued.

However, the nearby road sentries might be able to intercept carriages and personnel entering and exiting this area.

Ordinary brawls wouldn't have to worry about this kind of problem.

Later, Ineisha and Lina also came, as well as Miss Ovilia and others dressed in simple dresses that fit the campus atmosphere.

After everyone strolled around normally for a while, Wayne encountered familiar agents along the way, and finally sent the ladies away after they had to return to their dorms to do their homework.

At nine o'clock in the evening,

Seth Grayson arrived as planned to meet in the carriage, used extraordinary abilities on several items, and then went to the designated area to wait for the contact.

One of them was the metal flask Wayne usually used to drink holy water, the slightly frosted "film" didn't look as clear on the metal as it did on glass,

But after roughly testing it, the effect was still okay, not enough to delay things.

It's just that the style of this thing in the minimalist vision is dot-matrix, and Wayne was a little worried that the target might also notice it.

As tonight's "bait", Wayne requested that the signal sent by Seth Grayson was only to confirm whether the person who appeared was "right."

The specific timing for the Detective Agency to take action wouldn't be based on his signal, but Doug's owl would hoot in the air – the sound, when drawn out, sounded like a ghost at night.

This was a request for Seth to make a clear statement during the operation.

If Seth indicated that the person who appeared was indeed the one who contacted him before, but then denied it, or caused problems that shouldn't have happened, then Seth's identity in this matter would be worth reconsidering, and vice versa.

Since there were not many people near the lake, and even fewer at night, most of the agents and peripheral members didn't pretend to be "tourists\

,"But hid very simply, some of them were tasked with blocking the road, and others waited for the person to appear before confirming the specific location and then groping to get closer.

Although this was a zero-profit task, the agents were obliged to cooperate with the Detective Agency's arrangements, and the peripheral members without a guaranteed salary had the right to refuse in advance.

However, everyone's attitude was still good, and the Detective Agency, except for the members who were arranged to stay home and watch the children, could be considered to have dispatched everyone.

At nine forty, a figure appeared near the agreed area,

First, he circled around to confirm the situation, and then walked towards Seth Grayson, who was sitting on a roadside bench.

This was a good sign, people who came alone usually needed to be so careful, and people who were particularly good at running away probably wouldn't be like this.

Then, Doug let one of his pigeons "coo coo" twice in the night, and the members who were supposed to approach silently began to move.

--In fact, no matter what signal Seth gave, according to Wayne's decision, the Detective Agency would invite people to cooperate with the investigation, the difference might only be in the specific method and attitude.

Even if the other party was tricked over, they could still provide clues, at worst, treat him to a good meal and give him some cooperation fees or something.

The man sat on the other end of the bench, lit a cigarette and smoked, looking far away, as if the two were not talking,

But looking through the binoculars in the darkness, the lips of both of them had already started to move.

Seeing Seth send a confirmation signal, and looking at the flickering light over there, Wayne's mood relaxed a little,

Dare to smoke, then you're done.

Be careful, Lina will pick up the cigarette butt, and even if it turns to ash, maybe the "Wise Sage" will be able to find you in the future.

Facts proved that the other party might really be a member of the School of Life.

After Doug's owl started screaming, Peter seemed to pounce on it quickly, Wayne saw the other party patting the back of his neck, as if to swat a mosquito,

Then the other party jumped up from the bench, two vines had already wrapped around his ankles, but they were broken off.

Then Wayne saw the other party's body suddenly become a circle bigger, and the skin seemed to be covered with a layer of scales or keratin.

An agent nearby used a rope to trap his body, but he was pulled to the ground instead, and the holy water bottle had already been smashed at him, but the effect seemed to be average.

It's good that he can't fly and won't "split"!

Looking at those swollen hands, he probably can't use a gun now.

The agents nearby threw away kerosene bottles, bird nets, insecticides, and other things – the previous members of the School of Life left a deep impression on all the agents who had seen them – and replaced them with sticks and knives, and Wayne himself rushed to support them.

By the time Wayne ran close, several members had already been overturned by the other party.

Sanders could barely fight him a few times, but the other party punched Sanders with every punch, and Sanders had to groan himself when he punched the other party.

Fortunately, the other party didn't seem to intend to get entangled, and wanted to run after solving the blocking Sanders.

Wayne ordered to open fire while raising his pistol and shooting demon-hunting bullets.

"Bang--"

"Clang!"

The sound is wrong!

The other party's muscular body staggered slightly, but continued to run forward.

Several gunshots rang out one after another, and what came back were the sounds of hammers hitting iron nails, and occasionally sparks could be seen.

Gunshots continued.

A girl's scream came from a distance from the lake shore, it shouldn't be clear from so far away, probably because she had never seen such a gunfight scene.

Peter seemed to want to bite his face but was thrown away by that guy again.

Lina's small ball hit him, and one of the clusters of barbed wire exploded, entangled, and tightened on his body, wrapping around his neck like a snake, the guy struggled to pull it a few times while running, and broke one of them, which slightly slowed him down.

Then his body finally swayed in the continuous gunshots, and a blood hole appeared in his shoulder.

Wayne took the opportunity to shout a warning next to him, "Stop resisting! Otherwise, the next shot will blow your head!"

The other party looked like he was made of steel and iron, but he was more cowardly than Wayne had imagined.

He almost knelt down with his back to Wayne, and raised his hands, "Don't shoot!"

Wayne turned his head and glanced at Ineisha, who was much closer to the previously scheduled position, she was holding a bolt-action rifle and had re-aimed.

Looking at the kneeling guy who was being surrounded by agents,

Um……

Is this the so-called being "broken"?
