Mystery: Days and Nights of Struggle with the Research Society

Chapter 19 Old Neil

Suya was silent all the way to the underground. Klein thought he was still immersed in the battle just now and did not take the initiative to talk to him.Until the two came to the corridor leading to Chanis' door, Suya suddenly reached out and pulled Klein.

"What's wrong?" Klein turned around in doubt and asked in puzzlement.

"Klein, that Mr. Neil just now, is he a spy, right?" Suya asked with a solemn expression without answering.

"Old Neil is indeed a spy. What happened?" Klein didn't know why at first, but when he saw Su Ya's face turned serious, he tightened his cane nervously.

"...Take me to the captain and captain Dunn first, I'm not sure if my feeling is right, I need to verify it." Su Ya said.

"What do you feel?" Dunn asked with deep eyes and a low voice.

He knew very well that at Old Neil's age, there was indeed the possibility of losing control at any time, but Old Neil had always behaved so normally that all of them ignored it until Suya stood beside him. in front of.

"Captain Dunn, although the path I'm on lacks the ability to face the enemy head-on, it has extremely high spirituality and perception." Su Ya, who had already changed into a suit of clothes, spoke carefully, "Although this intuition is very It is elusive, but very useful at critical moments—for example, in today's battle, my intuition allowed me to activate the ability of 'arson' at the most suitable moment, thus successfully beheading the opponent."

"I know this, you don't need to explain it. Surya, I trust your judgment." Dunn said softly with a serious face.

Surya Auchinleck, Dunn saw this name at first sight when he saw the list of personnel for this mission provided by Backlund.

As the captain of the Nighthawks team who has been active in Tingen City all year round, how could he not know about this future Earl of Ahova?What's more, a few years ago, he once had a relationship with that "Goddess Shield" and participated in a mission together.

Because of this, Dunn even trusted Su Ya more than others. In other words, he believed in Su Ya's brother, the 'Goddess Shield'.

"Today, Mr. Neil walked into the hall, and the moment I was about to look at him, I felt my spiritual intuition warning me, which made me subconsciously turn off my spiritual vision before I dared to look at him. "Su Ya explained simply.

"Because of another enemy that unexpectedly appeared in today's battle, I was worried that there would be other twists and turns, so I didn't turn off my spirit vision on the way back. As a result," he paused, and then said, "I heard from Klein that the Mr. Neil's sequence is a 'Secret Peer', and an old 'Secret Peer' who can give me a strong warning to my Sequence 7 of this path of destiny."

Su Ya looked at Dunn Smith, who had a heavy face and deep gray eyes, and said softly, "I think with your knowledge, you should know what this means."

"The Hidden Sage." Dunn murmured in a hoarse voice.

"What?" Klein asked. He held the cane tightly, sweating from nervousness in his palms. He silently prayed that nothing would happen to Old Neil, but his heart slowly tightened and became heavier, as if he had a premonition. Something bad happened.

"Hidden sage, Klein should have read some relevant materials in the church, but those records are not complete. He is the evil god believed by the secret organization 'Moss Ascetic Order'. He is very good as a teacher and will often be instilled in this path. The knowledge that extraordinary people cannot accept and control finally caused them to lose control." Knowing that Mister Fool doesn't know enough about these secret organizations and evil gods, Su Ya glanced at Klein and explained softly.

"And the extraordinary path mastered by the Moses Ascetic Order is the 'Secret Peer'."

"Then Old Neil!" Klein was horrified and had some bad thoughts for no reason.

"Captain! We are now" he looked at Dunn and asked anxiously.

"Don't worry too much. Judging from Mr. Neil's current performance, he hasn't shown any obvious signs of losing control, and he won't have any problems for a while." Al Hasson interjected, putting his hand on Klein's shoulder, Signal him to calm down. "Even if we didn't know exactly how high Surya's spiritual intuition is, we wouldn't have any doubts about him."

"Al is right, Klein, calm down." Dunn put on a black top hat and a knee-length windbreaker, but did not go out directly, but looked at Klein, "Your contact with Old Neil during this period At most, Klein, what you need to do now is to calmly recall, have you seen any abnormal behavior of Old Neil recently?"

Does it count to use ritual magic to settle bills due to abnormal behavior? .No, it shouldn’t be counted. After all, it is a ritual to pray to the goddess, so there shouldn’t be a problem.Klein was thinking, and suddenly remembered the day he had just become a Extraordinary, when he first learned to open his spirit vision, what he saw in the void behind Old Neil was a pair of eyelashless, indifferent Eyes that are ruthless and tend to be transparent.

Is that the Hidden Sage?But Old Neil is only Sequence 9!
"The day I first became a Extraordinary, Old Neil taught me to meditate. When I opened my Spirit Vision, I once saw a pair of illusory and strange eyes watching everything behind Old Neil." Klein murmured, "Old Neil Neil told me at the time that it was a sign of ritual magic, and the eyes disappeared quickly, so I didn't care."

He couldn't help but look at Dunn, and asked in confusion, "Is that the Hidden Sage? What will happen to Old Neil?"

"Extraordinaries who are attracted by hidden existences often do not end well." Dunn said softly, "But we discovered it early. Old Neil has no obvious signs of losing control yet. Maybe he has just been targeted. If we can If we take relevant measures in a timely manner, there is still time to recover.”

"But I'm afraid the best outcome for him is to stay inside Chanis Gate or become an underground watcher."

"I'm going to get the Sealed Artifact '3-0611', Klein, you are responsible for keeping Old Neil in check, and don't let him find anything." In Klein's silence, Dunn ordered, and turned to Al Hasson again, "Sorry, I'm afraid I can't let you rest for too long, I need your help."

"Let your other team members guard the Chanis Gate, and I will do our best to keep him with you." Al Hasson nodded in understanding, and sighed softly, "Nighthawks, we are guardians, and we are also a group of timekeepers." Poor wretch facing madness and danger."
