Chapter 99 In the process

Jason Belial suddenly jumped up from his seat, his scalp exploded, and cold sweat soaked the clothes on his back.

As the "Apostle of Desire", he was almost shaken by his own unconcealable fear - in the widely circulated information about the devil's path in the extraordinary world, there is a relatively common concept, that is, from the "cold-blooded" to the

In the end, all the emotions of the Extraordinary in the demon path will gradually disappear, and there will be no fear or panic. Only robbing and killing lives can bring some rare happiness.

This is certainly true, but there is one exception.

The Demon of "Fear", the Angel of the Abyss - Edward Vaughn!

His existence itself is a source of fear. Not only will creatures be easily detonated by him, but even demons who are considered "bloodless and ruthless" cannot perfectly control their emotions in front of him!

I heard that human organizations and churches actually think that He was once a human, which is really ridiculous. Such an extremely terrifying existence is completely different from humans in nature. How could he be as weak and incompetent as humans?

Something changed?

One glance, just an understatement, caused the desire clone to disintegrate itself in fear.

Fortunately, He didn't see himself!

"Praise, praise the great mother tree, you are, you are the father of demons..."

Jason Belial finally straightened his tongue. He stood up with his weak legs and changed a chair to sit down.

He chanted the honorary name slowly, slowly calmed down, and finally completely controlled the fear surging in his heart.

The spacious living room is empty, with no fireplace, no lights, no sound of breathing or footsteps. The house purchased with a false identity has been quietly vacated, all valuable things have been sold, and all living things have been

After being killed, leaving only the false image in the living room, he could escape at any time.

With the protection of the Mother Tree of Desire, this mission of assassinating Duke Negan should be easy to accomplish. What is really difficult is what happens after that: following the order of the patriarch, leading the Angel of the Abyss into the trap of the Beria family that has been arranged.

, the demon king and the mother tree inflicted divine punishment on him.

Under the protection of the mother tree, no matter how you arrange it, the crisis intuition of the Abyss Angel will not be triggered.

Kill him to make the patriarch's potion digestion progress further.

For his work as a bait, plus the reward for assassinating Duke Negan, he was also promised the opportunity to become a demigod!

There must be a warrior under heavy profits, and Jason Belial is this warrior. He finally stretched out his hand to confirm the talisman he kept close to his body. It exuded a frightening aura near his heart, and it slowly drove away Jason.

The fear that almost became a "seed" in Sen. Beria's heart gave him great courage.

Fortunately, I used it early, otherwise...

He suddenly regretted that he should not have killed all the animals early. Otherwise, he could listen to their screams to calm down. Beria exhaled a breath that smelled of blood, stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, and prepared to follow the instructions

He planned to hunt down the detectives. After a few seconds, his figure suddenly disintegrated like a puddle of sticky shadow and disappeared.

The light of the red moon passed through the clear glass and fell on the carpet, blending with the almost black blood stains on it.

"Don't you need me to follow you in?"

"No, I'm sorry to bother you again."

After they and Klein immediately went to the police station to report the crime with a threatening letter, the two returned to Minsk Street. About ten meters in front of Klein's residence, they said goodbye to each other again after an hour.

"Don't let me start fighting with you as soon as I move my front foot and my back foot." Edward couldn't help but joked.

Klein smiled bitterly: "If it were me, I would indeed plan how to murder them one by one tonight, but I have already reported the crime twice. The police and even the Orthodox forces should start paying attention to us now."

"If we take action at this time, we will easily be directly exposed in the eyes of the church. It is too unwise. Besides, he does not seem to have the power to kill us directly, otherwise he would not have been able to deal with Mr. Essinger for so long."

"Then do as you say."

Edward also had something he wanted to do. He wanted to confirm whether a demon had really escaped from under his nose just now, so he naturally agreed.

Before they reached the fork in the road where the two of them should part ways, while walking, Klein saw a figure lingering in front of his house with the help of a gas street lamp stained with a little rain.

Klein was shocked at first, but then relaxed because he recognized who the visitor was.

It was Stuart, a private detective with a beard and a medium to thin build, his admirer.

Don't be careless... What if the "Devil" has abilities similar to the "Faceless Man" in the future? Klein tightened his cane, approached slowly, and then gave a tentative shout.

Detective Stuart turned his head suddenly and said with a bit of nervousness and panic: "Mr. Moriarty, I received a threatening letter, the content of which is 'You are all going to die!'"

"Did you receive it too?" Klein blurted out in surprise but also felt it was reasonable.

Stuart's eyes suddenly widened: "Did you receive it too?"

"Yes." Klein nodded solemnly.

And there's more than one... He added silently.

"What should I do? I went to see Mr. Stanton first, but I heard that he was attacked. I came to you quickly. Oh, thank God for His blessing, I almost left early!" Stuart

blurted out.

Klein pointed to the door: "Let's go in first."

Then he looked at Edward, feeling that the other person's expression was a little blurry in the dark night: "Then let's go first."

Edward looked at Stuart. This human being felt inexplicably afraid and did not dare to look at him. The angel of the abyss thought slightly, and Stuart's expression suddenly became panicked. The accumulated fear seeds were easily destroyed by the demon who was so close.

The ground detonation was detonated, and his emotions, which were already on the verge of reaching the limit, suddenly lost control. His mind was occupied by madness. He suddenly pulled out his gun, and at this extremely close distance, the muzzle of his gun directly touched Klein's forehead!

Klein didn't expect that the other party would suddenly collapse. He had no time to react and watched as he pulled the trigger with red eyes!

boom!

The gun in Stuart's hand exploded, and the gun fragments and gunpowder burst out, leaving many small wounds on his hands and face. He took two steps back and fell to the ground, breathing heavily.

gas.

Edward let go of his hand, and the crushed and broken muzzle of the gun fell from his hand and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

It is indeed the apostle of desire, and it is indeed the devil who has taken action.

He took out a squarely folded handkerchief from his pocket, slowly wiped the gunpowder residue on his hand, and then the handkerchief spontaneously ignited and turned into ashes. Edward glanced at Stuart, who was a little confused after the explosion, and then

He looked at Klein and said nonchalantly:

"He has accumulated enough negative emotions in his heart to make him lose his rationality."

"But it's okay now."

Klein was so shocked that he even forgot to breathe. Sweat slid down his forehead unconsciously. This was the first time since he came to Backlund that he was so close to death and was so caught off guard.

——Before this, no matter what kind of crisis it is, there is at least some reaction time!

It happened so quickly and ended so quickly that Klein didn't even have the joy of surviving the disaster. He hadn't even started to be afraid. Klein took a deep breath, inhaled, exhaled, inhaled again, exhaled again, and then hesitated.

He asked: "Will this leave any bad sequelae for him?"

"Maybe, he was in a trance and had nightmares for a while, but since he wasn't directly frightened to death, it's not too serious."

Edward glanced at Stuart, who was sitting on the ground, with the corner of his eye, and said goodbye to Klein in a pleasant tone: "Then I'll leave first. I hope you spend tonight safely."

Klein didn't think of how to reply for a moment. He watched Edward walking away step by step in a daze, until he watched the other person's back disappear completely, and then he felt that he could finally breathe again.

He quickly cleared the scene and helped Stuart, who was in a daze. At this moment, another detective, Kaslana and her assistant, and several other detectives also came over from the other side of the street.

She and Klein looked at each other, then helped to hold Stuart up, and winked at Klein, gesturing for him to come into the room.

A group of people entered the living room and put Stuart aside to let him calm down. They briefly exchanged information and eagerly expressed their anxiety and fear. Not long after, the doorbell rang again.

The gentle sound of the doorbell was like a basin of cold water poured over their heads.

Stuart seemed to have some reaction. He raised his head, looked around, and whispered blankly: "What was I doing just now..."

Has the official Beyonder taken action? Klein breathed a sigh of relief, holding the revolver and approaching the gate.

As soon as he grasped the handle, the appearance of the person outside the door naturally appeared in his mind: Isengard Stanton, with gray temples and a thin face, wearing a deerstalker hat and a black coat.

The great detective's face was a little pale, and his left arm was raised near his shoulder.

He is indeed fine! Klein was overjoyed at first, and then became cautious - he still remembered the time when "Secret Puppet Master" Rosago turned into a police acquaintance to defraud the door.

Klein put his finger tightly on the trigger, opened the door, and took two steps back.

Isengard Stanton smiled and nodded to him: "Thank you for your visit this afternoon, otherwise I might not be able to continue to hide and seek with that devil because of my injury.

"You saved my life."

This... Could it be that the correct interpretation of "It is appropriate to visit Essinger Stanton" is that going to him this afternoon can help him get out of danger? What about "It is appropriate to visit" in the next few days? Staggering the scene of the murder will not

Being suspected? Klein was dumbfounded for a moment.

He moved out of the way without letting his guard down: "What happened?"

"Let's talk later." Essinger suddenly lowered his voice and laughed, "Do you want to discuss topics related to extraordinary people in front of Stuart and the others?"

So you mentioned extraordinary beings to me so naturally? Also, I was able to stand in a stalemate with the owner of the demon dog for more than ten minutes, which is enough to show that I am not an ordinary person... and I also provided consultation on deliberately pointing to demonized animals before.

Opinion... Klein calmly fell two steps behind Isengard Stanton.

As soon as they saw the great detective, Kaslana and her assistant Lydia breathed a sigh of relief, and Stuart and other private detectives also showed relieved expressions.
