“The Black Death Society? They worship death…What about the moon?”
Su Lu immediately thought of Beryl, and even that strange sleep-talking phrase – ‘In the name of the moon’!
“In the eyes of the members of the Black Death Society, the moon represents death! They have a ritual where they kill sacrifices specifically on the night of the full moon…”
Rod gave Su Lu a deep look: “And their ‘Festival of Death’ also has another name — ‘Ritual of Bones, Flowers, and the Moon’!”
“Then I must go!”
Su Lu shrugged: “Besides…they’ve kidnapped my roommate! Right?”
“I was the first to arrive at the scene, Sean was indeed kidnapped by them, and they even asked me to go somewhere to resolve everything!” Rod spoke in a heavy tone: “The enemy dared to follow us here, their strength is absolutely not weak, there should be a third-level expert-level Transcendent in charge! It’s extremely dangerous!”
“So, we must discuss it carefully! We can’t just walk into the enemy’s trap!”
In fact, Su Lu was very impatient with those TV dramas from his previous life, where the kidnapper kidnapped important people and threatened the protagonist to go somewhere alone.
If it were not for the protagonist’s plot armor, they would have died a thousand times.
The best way to deal with this is to call the police.
Or rather, the best way to confront the threat is to make others believe that you don’t care about the person or thing being threatened.
“Actually, I’ve already called for reinforcements from the Federal Bureau and the Goddess Church!”
Rod spread his hands, with a look of surprise: “Do you really think I would risk my life for Sean? To be honest…apart from being your roommate, he is just an ordinary mission target to me, the kind I wouldn’t care if he died!”
Su Lu was somewhat speechless: “Well…”
He should have thought earlier, Rod didn’t have much of a connection with Sean, if the emergence of the Black Death Society this time could lead to their annihilation, even if the cost was Sean being in danger. Perhaps Su Lu might hesitate a bit, but Rod probably wouldn’t even furrow his brows.
In simple terms, it would be more useful for Rod if Su Lu was taken hostage…
well, just a little bit more useful.
“So… are you ready to set off? I must come with you!”
Su Lu suddenly realized that no wonder Rod didn’t need a [Apprentice] from the Goddess Church before, and was still diligent in doing church missions, there was a reason for this.
As for the little unpleasantness with the mission contact person, what could it count for in front of a second-order [Demon Hunter]?
But, even if there are no church missions to brush, just reporting it to the federation, most likely there will be special departments to take action.
After all, a group with transcendent powers, worshipping death and spreading plague, it’s better to annihilate them as soon as possible.
“Whatever you want!”
Rod packed up his weapons and walked out the door, Su Lu quickly followed.
When the two of them got to the roadside, a large black carriage was parked in front of them.
“Get in!”
Rod opened the door of the carriage, got in without any politeness, and waved his hand towards Su Lu.
Su Lu took a step up into the carriage and was surprised to find that someone was already inside.
It was a man in his thirties, with a firm face and a special aura about him, he nodded at him: “Federal Eleventh Bureau agent, you can call me Jack!” Su Lu’s inspiration was suddenly tense, it was a pure sense of danger.
“Hello, Agent Jack! I wonder what kind of help you can provide to me this time?” Rod asked in a heavy tone.
“In addition to me, there are five [Soldiers], and… we’ve already monitored the address you gave!” Jack pulled out a revolver and carefully wiped it with a silk handkerchief, as if caressing the skin of a lover.
“A second-order [Gunfighter], supported by five [Soldiers]?” Rod nodded: “It’s enough to deal with that third-order [Necromancer]!”
Su Lu was quietly listening.
After some time of cramming, he has a rough understanding of the professional supernatural system.
[Soldier] is the most common first-class physical superpower profession, professionals not only gain super powers but also powerful physical attributes, immune to most diseases.
As for a [Gunfighter], also known as a [Wandering Gunman]! It became a popular profession after the advent of firearms, mastering a skill called ‘Gunfight Skill’, as Rod said, its physical attack is among the top tier of the second-order profession.
It is not necessarily that the older professions have an advantage, with the development of the times, emerging professions also have vigorous vitality.
Of course, this advanced firearms profession because it appeared late, the follow-up is not very perfect, the high level is hopeless, this is not as good as some complete systems, can be considered as its disadvantage.
The last one, [Necromancer], is the profession system controlled by the Black Death Society, from [Apprentice] to start, to the second-order [Doomsayer], the third-order [Necromancer] is the progress of the [Doomsayer], proficient in a variety of necromancy spells, good at cursing and manipulating skeletons, in ancient times it was a hard type to deal with.
Often the appearance of a [Necromancer] in an area means a disaster, perhaps even an entire village will be slaughtered.
The best way to deal with [Necromancer] is to behead them directly!
No matter how many undead and skeleton soldiers the opponent has enslaved, as long as the source of control is killed, everything will return to normal.
This is just a direction of the [Apprentice] profession.
Su Lu deeply felt that the professional path system of this world is like a rugby, the basic professions are relatively scarce, but the middle development is very large, with all kinds of branches.
But in the end, various branches keep converging, only a few stand at the top! ‘So, the initial choice is very important, the middle road is also very important!’
Su Lu warned himself: ‘Even with the attribute column, I can’t take it lightly!’
In addition, another point that caught his attention was, the moment he got into the carriage, Agent Jack, as sharp as a hawk, kept sizing him up, as if he was very interested.
“You…are already a Transcendent, are you going to join this action?”
The carriage had stopped at some point, Jack stared at Su Lu and asked. “Yes, the one who was captured is my friend!” Su Lu nodded.
“I hope you can survive!”
Jack, Rod, and Su Lu got out of the carriage.
This was a warehouse area, the place was large, convenient for hiding people, and transportation was also convenient, they could escape at any time.
“They appointed you to negotiate in storage unit two, but their actual base is in storage unit six!”
Jack looked into the distance, a shadow suddenly appeared on a certain container, made a gesture, and quickly disappeared again: “Where are you planning to go?”
“I’ll go to negotiate with Su Lu, you guys go attack the base!”
In fact, that third-order [Necromancer] could be anywhere, this was completely a gamble.
Rod made his choice without a care..
