Begin the Holy Grail War with the Sombra Legion - Chapter 332
Annie subconsciously turned her gaze to the tall figure who was obviously a powerful god, but gave off an ominous premonition.
Although she could feel a sense of intimacy coming from him, the current situation made her subconsciously ignore this feeling.
I didn’t expect that it was just a waste to try it, and it turned out to be such an interesting thing.
It sounds like the feeling of a curious cheetah, but it has an incredible sense of charm that makes the man’s bones soften.
The helmet Annie was holding had shattered.
Beginning with tiny cracks, successive cracks appeared on the top of the mask, and disappeared into the world as smoke that was invisible to the naked eye.
They merged into the figure of the magic circle, making the intimacy deeper and deeper, which is the proof of the conclusion of the contract.
“what happened..”
Annie, who was bewildered, forgot what she should do for a while, and could only stare at the dark shadow in front of her and stare at him silently.
After a short silence, the tall shadow began to twist uneasy, like a mad beast, destroying everything around it.
“Oops…”
Realizing that she was in a trance, Annie hurriedly began to call for her contract, but it was too late. As the last callee, she no longer had the right to choose.
In this Holy Grail War, she was destined to be with this raging berserker.
“boom–“
In front of you is the blue ocean of California. If it’s summer, there are so many people here for sea bathing that even the beaches in the Venice area seem quiet.
However, Jack’s expression at this time was rather gloomy.
The Los Angeles branch of SSI is a government agency established to investigate magic and paranormal incidents and to hide relevant information. This is Jack’s workplace.
Yesterday, Detective Jack Mirupan received an assignment from his superiors.
Since he was involved in supernatural events and was recruited into this CIA-like organization, the whole person has been used as a bull and a horse.
The reason is also very simple. Having magic talent is a very harsh condition for this country that has not long been inherited, and because of the country itself, all kinds of supernatural organizations like to use this place as a testing ground, an urban power, and a cult. The competition is saturated because of too many people.
For a good detective, they could only stop him from being idle, but put out fires everywhere.
Jack Mirupan is one of the shining stars. He was called here by his boss during a rare vacation.
The reason is an unprecedented serious situation.
Could it be more serious than confronting the Warlock King Anshera?
As the person who has been in charge of [Lord of the Flies] Angela, looking for the trace of this terrorist who has led the warlock to wreak havoc for many years, Jack feels that he has been overpowered.
After all, the job of delivering things can be done by others.
He wasn’t particularly resistant to this mission, after all, it was not very dangerous, and unlike the previous secret missions, this time, the annoying boss took the initiative to explain the origin of the things he was asked to carry.
Fragments of broken holy relics, of various types.
For SSIs who lack inheritance, lack of funds, and even some who are caught in the struggle for power and profit, most of the pieces that can be collected are fragments of holy relics. Well kept.
But even so, the value of these things cannot be considered low, whether it is used for research, or as a ritual or catalyst for magic, they are very precious.
But with this batch, this is the third time.
There has always been only ssi to receive things, how can you give it out so generously?
Thinking of this, Ben Adolman gave the answer in a helpless tone.
“Unless, the object is a person who is on the same level as Pluto, or even beyond.”
Pluto the Pluto, he is a character who appeared in the second half of the 1990s.
As a melting pot of race, Los Angeles is also a stronghold of economy and industry.
At that time, the city was known as the Demon City of the vortex of crime, a metropolis where corruption and prosperity coexisted and competed, and in this chaotic city lived people who deviate from the principles of the world.
Although there is no inheritance, Ye Luzi is often more likely to cause trouble. They are supernatural powers who sold their ethics and conscience to demons and obtained extraordinary magic power——
In exchange for the small benefits in front of you, the hidden dangers that may destroy yourself or even the entire city at any time.
That is, the sorcerer.
In the inner world, a character that everyone is shouting at in the true sense, the lower limit and upper limit are both terrifying.
And the sorcerers who were trained in Los Angeles basically got rid of their half-assed identities and became dangerous people. At that time, even SSI did not dare to touch their edge.
That all changed when their natural enemy appeared.
That’s what people call him, the patron saint of Los Angeles, the black mask and cape, the never-before-seen mystic.
Can transform into an inhuman body, run in the dark, use spells, become an invincible giant, a magic bullet shooter, and a man who is always victorious.
I called myself John Smith, and at least two of these ten corpses called it by a pseudonym.
And the citizens who have seen him and have been rescued by him prefer to call him Pluto the Pluto.
Over time, he himself changed his self-proclaimed name, and thus the strongest warlock hunter, [Pluto] John Pluto Smith was born.
Jack, who was fortunate enough to have met Pluto, and even worked with him, knew very well how terrifying such a character was.
However, now, it seems that there is a dangerous person who is not inferior to Pluto.
“The Holy Grail War?”
Jack frowned and said irritably, remembering the sigh of his boss.
The turbulence that the newly born Demon King caused to affect the entire world not only did not subside, but intensified.
If you don’t want to be drowned in the waves of the times, you can only actively join in. These holy relics are the initial investment.
In this sense, the demon king named Roland may be even worse than Ansheela.
Even so, Jack didn’t think he was going to do anything. In the final analysis, this was something that had been approved by all the godslayers, and it was simply not something that could be fought against by personal power.
Moreover, Jack did not think that he could fight against the opponent, he was a figure at the same level as Hades.
Soon, he reached his destination.
—Los Feliz area.
It’s a sunny day in California, which has had little rain.
But Jack was not in the mood to drive under the clear sky. After parking his car in the parking lot of Samantha University, he walked to the location of the Humanities Department, targeting foreign languages.
Lifting the box in his hand, he skillfully entered a research building.
The students and faculty members that I can usually see are not there, not even a single person. Probably when the person who is going to visit opens the “barrier”, Jack walked to his research room and knocked on the door.
Saw his goal, Professor Joe Best.
“Hello, Professor.”
Jack greeted respectfully.
The person he greeted was a bald black man. The wrinkles of old age had already climbed up his face, but he still maintained a very strong figure.
In the inner world, he is a well-known researcher, and a precious and kind magician, one of the few people who are willing to offer help.
If only so, Jack would respect him in his heart, but never so respectfully.
There is only one reason for him to do so,
From what Jack heard, the professor is said to have assisted Pluto for more than ten years, and that the legendary figure was a good friend who fought side by side. The heroic helper who saved Jack’s life was enough for him to deal with it with the most respect.
Even if this side-by-side operation may only be purely providing intelligence assistance or the like.
Jack, who had seen the traces of Hades with his own eyes, did not think that the black professor could provide any combat assistance.
Of course, this does not prevent Joe Best from being much stronger than him. .
“Jack? Long time no see, is this the last batch?”
Professor Best came up with a hug, then let go of his hand and took a few steps back.
“You came just in time. If you are later, this batch of things will be useless.”
“Is it so urgent?” Jack was a little surprised.
At this time, Professor Best shrugged and said, “Because the time limit for the Holy Grail War is approaching.”
“The newly born Demon King has a bad temper. Once he is excluded from the Holy Grail War, I am afraid that even Pluto will not be able to please him.”
Professor Best said this somewhat poignant fact with awe.
“Even Pluto is one of them, but to be honest, the target of this time is also an extremely powerful one among the demon kings. The most important thing is that his purpose is much more dangerous than other godslayers.”
Professor Best sighed deeply.
Kind magicians like him are a very small minority in North America.
The reason is the rampant witch hunting incident during the British colonial period; the repression of the clergy of the new Christian faction who immigrated from Europe; the struggle and agreement with the indigenous elves beliefs, etc… All kinds of events are buried in the darkness of history. .
More dangerous than a godslayer.
Jack twitched the corners of his mouth a few times, out of kindness, and then opened his mouth to remind:
“If that’s the case, don’t you join the SSI or not. If you’re alone in the game of the Godslayer, you won’t end well. Anyway, what we can do this time is limited.”
In the Holy Grail War, the combination of heroic spirits and godslayers is dangerous enough, and the help that the cooperators can provide is probably the transmission of information over long distances.
At this time, choosing to give up is not to retreat, but to play a better role in assisting.
You know, compared to those cult groups that are dominated by distorted beliefs and irrational, even Hades finds characters difficult, he doesn’t think he and Best can deal with them.
“I’m not alone!”
Best raised his eyebrows and said in a pleasant tone:
“And my best student, and my research assistant, Anne Charlton!”
Speaking of this name, even though he knew that the old man in front of him was very reliable, Jack still doubted whether the other party’s brain was short-circuited during the experiment.
That young lady, just from her appearance, is indeed a great beauty.
Graduated from Samantha University and currently serves as an assistant to Professor Best, and is said to have excellent abilities.
However, Annie’s tone and expression are always rigid, and the iceberg face, which has remained unchanged for thousands of years, will be frightened even if it is very beautiful.
Hearing this question, Best showed a teasing expression.
“Don’t underestimate her, she is one of the experts in dealing with this.”
Unlike Jack who doesn’t know the truth.
Best is Pluto’s right-hand man and has been assisting the godslayer for more than 10 years.
In a sense, he can even be regarded as Pluto’s family, elder, and the person who guided her to practice in the mysterious world.
Therefore, he also knew that the other party was a woman’s true identity,
And the outside world imagines that John Pluto Smith must be a handsome gentleman.
Pluto, the god-killer, was actually a woman.
Under the full-coverage helmet like a motorcycle helmet, is the glamorous face of Anne Charlton.
And this is another story
Anne, known as John Smith, was a hero in Los Angeles a decade ago.
Unlike all godslayers, Annie is the only one who takes the initiative to wear a mask, does not accept the magic association to join, and simply acts in a heroic way.
At that time, she was a hero who was inspired by the superhero trend, and she always fantasized about being able to incarnate as the same character, defending Los Angeles at the hands of the warlock.
Coincidentally, in a later encounter, she killed the supreme **** in Aztec mythology, Tezcatlipoca.
Thus, a gentleman full of aristocratic tastes, wearing a duplex helmet and a black suit, the King of the Underworld, John Pluto Smith, was born.
The reason why it is difficult to be a hero is because she is not only an identity, but a belief.
In order to maintain the identity of Hades, Annie’s daily life has also been affected a lot. In addition to her low emotional intelligence and not good at communicating with people, she has to rely on the identity of a helper~www.mtlnovel.com~ to hide her usual self.
This also created a vicious circle of her many blind date losing streaks, which eventually became a tragedy for an older leftover girl.
Thinking of this fact, Best couldn’t help laughing, but when he felt the chill rising behind him, he quickly interrupted the bad association.
“Okay, it’s time for you to go back, and leave everything to Hades! Trust him, he will not disappoint those who rely on him.”
“of course!”
After being driven out in a daze, Jack still couldn’t hold back his idol worship before he left after hearing this.
“Pluto will not lose! He is the strongest hero!”
“Am I obliged to report to you?”
Annie was dumbfounded.
That’s right, Roland is not obliged to report to her what he has to do.
Everyone is a king of the same rank, and the gap in status is not big.
Even Roland, who defeated Salvatore Tony and suppressed the black prince Alec, may have more fighting power than her.
This is why Annie said before that she didn’t have much confidence to resist Roland.
However, these are not reasons to back down.
“You’re right, you really have no obligation to report to me, but you also forget that this is America.”
Anne Charlton showed a bloodthirsty smile for the first time, which was the cruel side of a godslayer as a demon king:
“As long as I stop it with all my strength, you don’t want to do anything on this site!”
Rights are supported by force.
Whether nations or individuals, the basis for securing their rights is force.
As the king of America, if Annie wanted to obstruct Roland with all her strength, she could indeed sabotage any of Roland’s plans.
At least, Anne thought so.
“You can give it a try.”
