I’m the Mysterious Leader of the Salvation Organization - Chapter 395

Hain.

A female Night Watcher, belonging to the Demon Hunt General Agency.

She was in her early twenties this year, although young, she had actually been a member of the Demon Hunt General Agency for ten years, with considerable experience.

However, her abilities could only be considered average, and so far, she had only achieved the “basic level.”

And, it is very likely that she would remain at the basic level for the rest of her life, unable to reach the awakening.

In general, extraordinary individuals tend to progress faster during their earlier stages and at a younger age.

As one grows older and spends more time mastering extraordinary powers, the potential to unleash further diminishes, and the speed of improvement actually becomes increasingly challenging.

Especially the first decade when humans acquire extraordinary powers, and the first fifty years when elves acquire extraordinary powers, are the pivotal periods of the pivotal period.

Once the age of an extraordinary individual reaches old age, thereafter their abilities will generally remain unchanged.

Hain had no special talents, she was just an ordinary Night Watcher, but at this moment, she was being watched by Bai Yan and Mu Ling together.

She was also one of the Night Watchers who had been “possessed,” at least according to the list provided by Ringi, her name was mentioned as “Hain”.

“Um… I am doing very well here.”

At this moment, “Hain” was lying on the couch and talking on the phone.

Just a short distance away, Bai Yan and Mu Ling were standing together, secretly observing her every move.

Because Bai Yan possessed the power of Power Possession: Replication, using a powerful invisibility spell called “Veil”, Hain was completely unaware of the two of them.

“Oh, there are people with the surname Hai, how strange,” Bai Yan suddenly said.

“…” Mu Ling stayed silent, simply standing quietly by the side.

“Speaking of which, the surname Mu is quite rare,” Bai Yan smiled, as if searching for a topic of conversation.

He didn’t usually have the inclination to initiate conversations with people.

So far, she had only spoken to a few people, like Mu Ling and Maryse, on her own initiative.

Mu Ling nodded gently, and in all seriousness, she explained, “Mu is indeed a rare surname. My ancestors were born and raised in Tatsumi City, and there were no famous individuals with the surname Mu before them. Later, she became a crime-hunter filled with glory… and she is also the only top-level powerhouse in my family to reach the Apocalypse level.”

Based on various information that Bai Yan already knew, and considering the summoning of Mu’s ancestral figure, “Dust of the Past,” during the First Doomsday Crisis…

Actually, Mu Ling is the reincarnation of her legendary ancestor.

However, even though they were both reincarnations, they were no longer the same person.

Just like the Moon Witch and the Ultimate Witch are definitely different, whether it be in terms of personality, experiences, or even abilities, they have already become completely different.

Bai Yan nodded gently, sincerely admiringly. “The Mu family is truly awe-inspiring. For generations, they have been crime-hunters, protecting the innocent both now and in the future.”

“Hmm,” Mu Ling nodded, indicating her agreement.

She continued, “The great Savior has given me the opportunity… enabling me to revive my family, granting me a chance to follow in the footsteps of that legendary ancestor.”

Yes, yes, yes, the Savior has been very kind to you,

Looking at the admiration in the girl’s eyes, Bai Yan had no idea what to say, so he simply smiled.

Hmm, actually it’s quite embarrassing.

To be honest, Bai Yan would occasionally have the urge to reveal his true identity in front of everyone.

So, what kind of actions will all the Core Operators of Babel Tower have in the face of the truth?

Although he certainly wouldn’t do that, it’s actually fun to imagine for a moment.

Bai Yan fell into deep thought.

First was Mu Ling. If she were to discover that the “Profligate” was a manifestation of the Savior of Babel Tower, she would probably be initially shocked for a long while. Eventually, she would still kneel down on the ground, expressing her continued loyalty while feeling bewildered.

No matter how the Savior transforms, no matter who they become, Mu Ling’s loyalty will never change unless they do something that she cannot forgive.

Maryse might just crash, at least for an hour.

Then she would ask a lot of questions and remember the embarrassing incident when she was under control, angrily throwing a couple of punches.

The Scarlet Moon’s words… would probably be followed by a punch, and only then would she speak anything else!

This person bears a grudge!

Bai Yan pondered over the past and finally concluded that Kaluoer had the least change in attitude.

For her, “Lord” and “Savior” were both masters who gave orders. The only difference before was that one was a superior and the other was a superior’s superior. After her true identity was exposed, it simply became a matter of one being a superior.

There was absolutely no difference at all!

As for the others… Bai Yan suddenly realized that they were none other than the witches who were not Core Operators.

She would probably feel extremely astonished, and then proceed to excitedly pledge her loyalty… Yet, this individual’s loyalty was solely for her own goals and ideals.

This doesn’t indicate loyalty.

But honestly, Bai Yan really wanted to see the scene where the witch kneels down.

“Senior Profligate, what are you thinking about?” Mu Ling asked.

“Hmm, I’m just thinking about something else.”

Bai Yan shook his head, smiled, and didn’t explain what he was daydreaming about.

“Look.”

Mu Ling raised her finger and pointed to a place not far ahead.

That was the direction of the Night Watcher Hain, who had been “possessed”. Bai Yan had actually already noticed it without her pointing… The fake “Hain” that had been replaced appeared unusually at this moment.

The two of them observed for a long time here, and finally, they waited for a flaw to appear in Hain.

She took out a pitch-black, special talisman from an ordinary iron box.

Just like Mu Ling described in the Babel Tower meeting, it was a talisman surrounded by several pitch-black fingers covering the eyes. The closed eyes seemed alive.

Just by glimpsing it for a moment, it had the power to make people feel the strangeness contained within.

Unable to describe, yet undeniably terrifying, Bai Yan furrowed his brow slightly, feeling it even though he was accustomed to such things.

“What is this thing?”

Mu Ling, with a furrowed brow, pondered. She had never seen anything like this before, at least not in the knowledge passed down among crime-hunters.

“Perhaps it is related to the Black Abyss Deep Sea,” Bai Yan suddenly answered.

Black Abyss Deep Sea?

Mu Ling was momentarily taken aback, realizing what Senior Profligate was talking about. It was one of the twenty-seven Outer Gods.

He was also an Outer God.

It represents the twenty-first hour of each day.

In the vast multiverse, fear and curses originate from the Black Abyss Deep Sea. The former is the most intense negative emotion, while the latter is the most enigmatic form of supernatural power.

His appearance looked like a massive black flame, concentrated like a sun, with a faint hint of gray-white only in the center.

Its size was so immense that no creature could directly behold its entirety. Its true form typically existed beyond the bounds of reality, and upon its arrival, it would obliterate the entire universe.

“Why? Do you have any specific evidence?” Mu Ling asked, her voice filled with curiosity.

Bai Yan smiled and replied, “The reason is simple… Besides the unstoppable Outer God, ordinary, immortal gods are not worthy opponents to be our Saviors of the Babel Tower.”

“Since that’s the case, actually we have less goals to consider. And among the many Outer Gods, the one that represents fear and curses is none other than the Black Abyss Deep Sea.”

“When you saw the charm, did you also feel afraid?”

Mu Ling fell into deep thoughts.

“So, this is how it was?”

Although it may be a bit speculative, so far, all the enemies of the Babel Tower are either overpowering Outer Gods or colossal beings like the Tylor civilization.

Bai Yan saw the symbol on that guardian and felt that the origin of this enemy was probably not some super civilization, but something related to religious beliefs.

So, the enemy could be found among the Outer Gods.

Jokingly, how many times has he played “Babel Tower”? Doesn’t he know by now what kind of enemies are likely to appear?

Just as the newly emerged feeling of fear barely surfaced, Bai Yan still keenly sensed it.

He remembered vividly how he had once stood face to face with the Pupil of Chaos.

Since that was the case, ordinary things that could influence emotions should not have been able to disturb him at all.

So, the source of the amulet’s power must have a significant origin.

Bai Yan didn’t have absolute certainty, but deep down he felt that the Outer God worshipped by his enemies was most likely the “Black Abyss Deep Sea!”

Although the Outer God essentially had no concept of such trivial notions as good and evil.

But for humans and other intelligent races, the Black Abyss Deep Sea undoubtedly represented an evil presence.

Because its operating principle was to spread fear and curses.

So the followers of the Black Abyss Deep Sea, and the things that the Black Abyss Deep Sea would do, were essentially a hundred percent focused on causing pain and torment to intelligent beings.

Mu Ling pondered for a moment and said,

“Black Abyss Deep Sea… I don’t know much about Him, because as far as I know, there are no followers who believe in Him in Noah’s world.”

Mu Ling sounded perplexed, unsure why the followers of the Black Abyss Deep Sea would be present here, and why they would seek to replace the Night Watcher through methods akin to “possession.”

Bai Yan also knew that Noah had no followers from the Black Abyss Deep Sea, and not even in his first playthrough of the Babel Tower did he encounter any subordinates of the Black Abyss Deep Sea.

But the enemies of the Babel Tower, they were not limited to just the evil within Noah’s realm, you see.

“Look.”

She suddenly reached out her finger and pointed at the fake “Hain” who had just taken out the talisman.

Mu Ling noticed Hain kneeling on the ground, holding a strange black talisman in her hands, and quietly whispering a prayer.

Mu Ling listened carefully, but she couldn’t understand what was being said. It was a language she had never heard before, with unfamiliar sounds filling her ears.

It was unintelligible, like the cries of ancient and otherworldly creatures. Just by listening, it sent a chilling sensation down one’s spine.

But Mu Ling stored these sounds deep within her heart.

“Something is about to come out,” Bai Yan quietly spoke up, giving a gentle reminder.

The black talisman was trembling.

Just then, Hain suddenly let out a silent scream, her face contorted with fright, and her body trembling!

She tore open her own abdomen with both hands, spilling forth an increasing amount of darkness from within!

The fear contained within this darkness sent shivers down one’s spine, causing a chilling sensation as if trapped in an icy cave. Even Mu Ling, whose will was as strong as iron, had to hold her breath and remain still.

“What is this thing!”

Bai Yan gazed at the thing gradually crawling out from the darkness, instinctively wanting to reach out and calm Mu Ling, but hesitated and withdrew his hand.

“Here they come!”
