my beauty world

Chapter 296
At dawn, Ronan drove back to his residence in Nassau County. As soon as the car entered the garage, Jess hurried in.

The person seems to have not slept well all night, and looks a little haggard.

Bright eyes, staring at the car eagerly.

Ronan opened the door and got out of the car, picked up the bouquet of red roses on the co-pilot, and handed it to Jess: "Look, can it work?"

The red roses are delicate and beautiful, bright red like a burning fire, and there are sharp thorns growing on the flower stems.

use?how to use?Jess blinked her eyes, this thing is thorny!
Next, as soon as she got it in her hand, Jess realized the difference, this is not an ordinary flower!
Extraordinary magic items?

Jess had a smile on her face, her face was as delicate as a red rose.

This was the first time Ronan gave her flowers.

Feeling inevitably excited.

Ronan went straight out of the garage, and when Jess came up behind, he said, "Try it, see if you can trigger it, this thing can be used in two ways..."

Roughly said it again.

According to what Ronan said, Jess tried a little bit, and it was not difficult to control as a transcendent who also played with spiritual consciousness.

Seeing the swirling rose petals returning to the stem, Ronan said, "Keep it."

It's really awkward for a big man to hold a red rose as a weapon.

"It continues to suck blood, and its power will increase." Jess felt very clearly: "It can be used to deal with vampires."

Hearing about the vampires, Ronan turned to the topic: "I contacted the Shadow Hunters and prepared to work with them to deal with the Morgan family's vampires. You may do it anytime, be prepared."

Jess said, "For my promotion..."

Ronan raised his hand to interrupt her: "Vampires are my enemy. Perhaps in this world, I'm the one who doesn't want Lilith to return to this world."

What happens when Lilith comes back and sucks him dry?Or more terrifying?
Jess stood firmly with Ronan: "And me!"

Ronan pointed to her face: "Have you not slept all night?"

"No, I slept for a while." Jess recalled the basement, and said, "Last night, I had someone buy some pets and come back for experiments. There were a few things that were very strange, so I got up early in the morning to watch."

Ronan was curious: "What's going on."

Jess originally wanted to put the red roses in the vase temporarily, but as soon as the bouquet of roses was out of her hand, it floated up by itself, turned and hit her clothes, turning them into prints on the clothes.

"Can it still be like this?" Jess was a little surprised, and tried to control it with her mind, and the bouquet of roses appeared in her hand again, saying, "It can switch between virtual and real."

Although it's a bit strange, things on the extraordinary side cannot be measured by common sense, and Ronan is not surprised.

Jess turned the bouquet of roses into a print on the clothes, and walked towards the basement: "Come and see, there are four turtles, and they have changed a lot."

The two went down to the basement and entered one of the vaults. There were four black humanoid turtles lying on the ground.

It seems to be a Brazilian tortoise, which is ridiculously big. The tortoise shell is like a millstone, and the protruding limbs are somewhat like human hands and feet. In addition to the bald head, it is 1 meters long.

Looking at the tortoise shell again, it looks like enchanted obsidian, and its hardness is no worse than that of Washington's black Lincoln.

On the back of the turtle shell, there is also a name.

Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, Donatello.

"They were originally only this big." Jess slapped herself: "After finishing the experiment yesterday, I threw it into the pet box. When I got up early in the morning to look at it, they suddenly became this big!"

She talked about yesterday's experiment in detail.

Ronan asked, "What did you use?"

Jess picked up the experiment log next to him and gave it to him: "In addition to the feathered snake's blood, it is mainly the powder of the corpse of the king of ghouls, and the muscle and internal organs powder of the silver-white werewolf, and I added some scraps of enchanted obsidian. Yes, I also planted seeds of consciousness in them..."

She is not a professional, she is purely luck, she can only deduce it based on the results: "The magic obsidian should be the key, how to prepare the previous materials, the experimental target will eventually ignite spontaneously, and there will be no ashes left."

Ronan nodded: "The demonized obsidian itself is generated in the extremely high-temperature place where the feathered snake sleeps, and it can also be used as the core of the rock puppet to make inorganic things come alive. It makes sense."

Jess said: "You still have materials? Let's try again another day."

Ronan took out what was given to Jess, but only a little, and said: "There are still a lot of materials." He pointed to the four black turtles sleeping on the floor: "Out of control?"

Jess roughly said: "Before the experiment, I planted the consciousness seeds of greed, lust, gluttony and jealousy in them respectively, and their corresponding emotions were particularly strong, as if they were born with these qualities, I... They can only be controlled briefly."

Ronan asked: "Have a sense of thinking?"

"Yes." Jess thought for a while, and found a suitable comparison object: "It's almost like a stupid bird."

Ronan took out the chain and barbecue from the badge space, and the spiritual power whip appeared in his hand.

Seeing the chains and the whip, Jess was inexplicably nervous, her hands were clenched together, her calves were spinning and trembling, and her heart was trembling.

But in my mind, I was inexplicably excited: "First roses with thorns, then chains and whips, what should I prepare? Should I go upstairs and change clothes? It seems that there are clothes for this..."

Ronan pointed to the turtle pointing at Da Vinci: "Wake it up."

Jess woke up Da Vinci, and the tortoise opened its eyes, revealing its dark eyes, turned over and was about to rush towards Ronan.

crackling—

The long whip of spiritual power hit the black turtle shell!

The tortoise shell was extremely hard without any scars, but the whipping of the soul directly acted on the soul, and Da Vinci turned into a tortoise in pain!
The chains were added to the body, and the long whip was pulled down with a crackling sound.

The basement became lively.

More than an hour later, four tortoises, who were slightly shorter than adults and could squeaky for a while, stood on their feet like humans in the basement, facing Ronan and Jess, tame as if they were docile. puppy.

Ronan hadn't planned on having a name.

But Jess followed suit and continued to use the pet turtle's name.

Four Artists of the Renaissance.

Ronan also did some experiments. The four humanoid tortoises were successfully strengthened, and their strength and speed were not inferior to Jie's. The two sides of the tortoise's shell were as large as the millstones, which could resist automatic rifle fire at close range.

Ordinary fire attacks are basically useless.

As for soul burning or aluminum-magnesium-white-phosphorus incendiary bombs, there is no condition to try them for the time being.

Nor does it work in Nassau County.

In addition, the black tortoise also has a super recovery ability like a silver-white werewolf, and the tortoise can pop out ghoul-like sharp, hard and sharp claws!

In addition to the low IQ, the influence of the consciousness seeds planted by Jess before strengthening, and some strong emotions, it can be said to be a powerful extraordinary creature.

Ronan asked, "Can you teach them to use weapons?"

Jess treated the four turtles as small pets and said, "Let me try."

It must be very difficult to teach normally, Ronan can only let Jess use the ability of the fraudster to try.

In the basement, there is no shortage of cold weapons.

Since the beginning of the year, Jess has taken many messy craft classes, ranging from wood, stone to metal.

For example, an extra-large iron hammer modeled after an oak hammer, a pair of knives cast from Ronan’s samurai sword, simple and crude alloy sticks, common swords and shields in the Middle Ages, and so on.

Jess took the name, Ronan was only willing to be called Turtle.

In his eyes, these are consumables, and they may come in handy against the vampires of the Morgan family.

In the middle of the morning, Ronan received the latest information from Carolina through Monroe Church.

Among the two high-ranking mages in New York, Veronica, who sensed that something important was happening in New York, notified the Special Affairs Bureau. General Hawke of the Special Affairs Bureau reported it immediately. The Washington authorities are organizing forces and dispatching elite personnel to the manhattan.

Thunder Mage Joseph may be coming.

However, limited to the political system of the United States, there are many places that need to be wrangled.

The current mayor of New York City is a member of the Mensa Church. Under the subtle influence of Hubbard in the past six months, the differences with the Washington authorities have become more and more serious. There is no need for the Mensa Church to specifically come forward, and it will set up obstacles for Washington. .

This is New York, not Washington, D.C. Without any solid evidence, a large number of armed agents and even the National Guard entered New York, and of course there was no shortage of gossip.

Later, Ronan specifically contacted Carolina.

For senior secret service directors, the Secret Service is basically transparent, and even has access to a lot of intelligence compiled by the Office of the Director of Intelligence of the United States.

The authorities in Washington and the Secret Service only focus on Manhattan, and have no intelligence about the Morgan family.

Authorities don't currently know what might be happening to the Morgans.

Ronan thought of the two high-level mages again, and they were on the side of the Special Affairs Bureau.

Veronica's divination is also a problem.

Too bad the Mother of Sighs won't be back in New York anytime soon.

Ronan went to check the seal, but he couldn't break it for the time being.

…………

Manhattan, Wall Street.

This narrow street has written countless wealth myths.

In an office building close to the street, Oakmont Company, which is writing myths, is busy with people coming and going.

Absorbing investment and distributing dividends has already made a name for itself on Wall Street.

The funds absorbed by the Ponzi scheme are calculated in hundreds of millions. After more than a year of development, Oakmont has absorbed more than US$30 billion in investment.

Even if some of that was paid out as dividends, the rest was still huge.

Jordan Belfort, who is in charge of Oakmont's operations, has been frowning lately.

It is already May, and until the end of June, it is the annual dividend settlement period for many large investments.

Once there is a problem with the distribution of dividends, there will be a domino effect, and Oakmont will go bankrupt and fall into crisis.

But the normal distribution of dividends...

Last year, those Wall Street investors who would enjoy large dividends for half a year were invited by Jordan Belfort to watch a ballet at the Lincoln Center for the Arts, successfully putting them into a death trap.

Jordan Belfort believes in Her Majesty's ability and has been waiting patiently. Seeing that the deadline is approaching, and there is no relevant information there, he can't help feeling a little anxious.

Swallow the cake and spit it out?That's not Oakmont's style.

The funds in Oakmont's account are sufficient for this dividend, but paying the dividend will definitely hurt.

There was a knock on the office door from outside.

After Belfort said please come in, Eva came in from the outside.

"Why are you here?" Belfort asked.

Eva sat opposite him: "There are instructions."

Belfort finally arrived, and he couldn't help being refreshed: "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

Eva said: "Immediately mobilize funds and do all I can to short several major companies under the Morgan consortium. Our people will withdraw from Wall Street in an orderly manner and leave the United States temporarily."

"Short the Morgan consortium?" Belfort was not surprised, but excited: "Are we going to play big money again?"

Eva smiled and said, "You do what you are good at, and you don't need to ask more about the rest."

Belfort knew very well that what he was good at was financial securities, so he immediately promised: "Please tell Your Majesty, I will not let her down!"

Eva said: "Move quickly, especially when transferring money."

Belfort knew that Oakmont Company was coming to the end of its life, and said: "Don't worry, I have already prepared a plan and established a relationship. The funds can be transferred to the Swiss bank as soon as possible."

Eva understood Jordan Belfort's ability, said no more, and got up to leave.

Belfort picked up the phone and notified his assistant to ask the key elites from the company's investment department to come to the meeting.

Then, I went to the finance department in person, and had a private conversation with the chief financial officer belonging to my family for a while to prepare for the transfer of funds.

Before Oakmont closes its doors, it will take another fortune from Wall Street!
Jordan Belfort swept away the previous depression, and now he has the bottom line in his heart, and he is full of energy when doing things, and he promised a lot of rewards to a group of elites, and the whole company turned around with all its strength.

…………

The hustle and bustle of the day dissipated and night began to fall.

A car sped from JFK Airport in Queens and drove directly into Greenwood Cemetery.

Hodge and Magnus got out of the car and went straight to the pyramid-shaped tomb on the top of the mountain.

Halfway through, Jocelyn and Ping Qi, who got the news, rushed over and explained what Ronan had said in detail while walking.

Jonathan and Campbell who came later told Hodge about the blood-stained bride one by one.

Magnus still remembered Ronan and said: "This man has cooperated with us many times and saved them again. He is a trustworthy man."

Hodge nodded slightly. Although the other party also had a purpose, how could there be any help in this world for no reason?
Both sides have the same enemy and similar positions, so they are natural allies and can continue to cooperate.

When they came to the City of Bones, there had long been a black-robed priest waiting here, leading a group of people into the huge underground palace.

The walls around the palace and the ground in the middle are filled with the bones of the dead shadow hunters.

This is the place where shadow hunters hold their rituals, and it is also the graveyard of shadow hunters.

Every dead shadow hunter will enter the city of bones to sleep forever, and use their remaining strength and consciousness to assist future generations to continue fighting.

The others automatically stopped and stood at the entrance of the hall.

Hodge put on a black robe, walked slowly towards the center of the hall, stopped among the magic runes, and looked up at the dome.

Nine priests in black robes, that is, gravekeepers, stood at specific positions around the magic runes and chanted ancient Latin spells.

On the huge sword hanging upside down from the dome, there is a light shining.

Hodge closed his eyes and saw the boundless darkness, and there seemed to be a demon appearing in the darkness!

Endless abyss!

Suddenly, the angel runes all over his body emerged!
At the entrance of the main hall, Magnus had a solemn expression on his face. As a veteran shadow hunter, this was the first time he had seen such a strong reaction from Hodge!

Jocelyn and him looked at each other, and saw the worry and solemnity in each other's eyes.

Ping Qi asked in a low voice: "Seriously?"

Jocelyn nodded slightly: "Very serious."

"It's okay." Pingqi was very optimistic: "It's going to be okay. Look at me. After so many brutal battles, didn't they all come through smoothly? Think about thousands of voodoo zombies rushing up in Park Town back then. , Didn’t Duke and I fight all the way out?”

No one responded.

After such a long time, everyone basically understands something.

Even Jonathan muttered in his heart: "Duke must be killing all the way, you watch all the way."

It's a pity that he guessed wrong, Ping Qi didn't watch, because he won by lying down.

The ceremony ended at this point, and Hodge walked out slowly.

Ping Qi quickly shut up.

Everyone followed Hodge into the room on one side of the underground palace, and sat on both sides of the stone tables and chairs.

Hodge didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "The City of Bones is warning me that an unprecedented dark force is coming to New York."

Jocelyn asked, "Vampire? Lilith?"

Hodge said: "It's not very clear, but one thing is certain, it has something to do with the endless abyss."

Magnus said: "According to the records of our ancestors, after Lilith left Adam, she fell and became the demon queen of the endless abyss, as well as the master of night and blood."

"That's right," said Jocelyn.

Hodge pondered for a moment and said, "We must not let Lilith come to the world. Once it returns, this world will become a paradise for demons."

Everyone else agrees, no one wants to be the plaything of the devil cub.

Hodge looked at Jocelyn: "You contact Duke and ask him to come to Greenwood as soon as possible."

Shadow hunters deal with the enemy, never persuasion, always clean up directly!

Hands-on and never wordy!
…………

Queens, Flushing Park.

Because not long after the murder happened, the situation was similar to last night. When it got dark, people in the park left in a hurry.

When it was dark, no one could be seen in the area near the square.

The sea breeze blew, and the swing creaked and creaked.

The surrounding air suddenly wrinkled, and the ripples were like wind blowing across the water.

A mosaic of black and white forms the body of Sawblade Head and Tooth Fairy.

The saw blade head looked around, raised his hand and turned the saw blade on his head, took out his touch screen phone, opened a text message, and said, "This is where the bride and I made an appointment, why don't you come out?"

The tooth fairy's mouth, like a bottomless pit, keeps opening and closing, and circles of sharp teeth keep turning.

"Can't sense the bride's breath?" Sawblade squatted down to check the traces in the ground, but found nothing: "Did the bride have an accident?"

When they were under the Yellowstone Volcano, they were neighbors, and occasionally communicated, which was a bit of friendship.

Little Tooth Fairy's cute face with only one mouth, turned to Sawhead.

The latter understood what she meant: "The bride is dead? How could it be? She just got free and died here? Even if the body dies, what about the soul?"

The tooth fairy's sharp teeth continued to turn.

Sawhead said: "There are no souls? Are there demons who are good at playing with souls? No, we are demons. Who else is better at playing with souls than us..."

The tooth fairy's mouth is closed, and there are no organs on the cute face, like a faceless man.

"I originally wanted to find an ally to be a pathfinder thug, but I didn't expect to die so quickly." Sawhead was a little regretful: "My dear daughter, the bride is gone. Let's go and find our target."

The little Tooth Fairy stretched out her small hand and held the big hand of the saw blade head, and the beautiful tutu was blown up by the wind.

The wind blows, and the park square becomes empty again.

…………

Nassau County community, inside the villa.

Jess hung up the phone and said to Ronan, "Oakmont is ready!"

Ronan said: "Anyone or anything related to you should be withdrawn immediately. It is really impossible. You will also leave New York after tonight."

Jess thought about it carefully, and said: "I have never had direct contact with Oakmont. Oakmont really knows that I am hiding behind the scenes, only Jordan Belfort and the chief financial officer, as long as they can leave smoothly, I will There will be no problem here."

In fact, she knew very well that if she shorted the Morgan consortium, Oakmont would definitely be investigated later.

Therefore, after this operation, Oakmont was closed directly, and Jordan Belfort absconded with money.

Ronan took a step forward, took out the necklace hanging on Jess's chest, opened the button box below, put the teleportation beacon in it, and said, "Wait for my notice."

Jess mustered up her courage and kissed him actively: "I'm ready."

Four humanoid creatures in wide hooded trench coats came up the stairs from the basement and stood silently behind Jess.

Ronan said no more, entered the garage, and drove to Greenwood Cemetery.

Jess watched the car go away, took out a box, took out the oak hammer in it, and put it in front of the dressing table.

Then he dug out the cosmetic bag and the fancy clothes of the young lady and put them on. The large-caliber rhinoceros revolver was inserted under the armpit, and the bouquet of roses was tossed casually, turning into a print on the clothes.

Sitting in front of the vanity mirror, Jess quickly dyed her blond hair, tied it into a double ponytail, and put on heavy makeup, so that she could no longer see her original appearance.

On the other side, Ronan drove quickly to Greenwood Cemetery and directly entered the chapel in the cemetery.

Hodge, Jocelyn, and Magnus were waiting in the church.

Ronan greeted them one by one and sat on a wooden chair.

Hodge said: "On behalf of the Shadow Hunter, thank you for the information you provided. It is the Shadow Hunter's responsibility and obligation to prevent and eliminate demons and devils from invading the human world."

Ronan didn't hide it. In the face of such a person, it's useless to hide it. He said directly: "I have a grudge against vampires. I don't want to see Lilith wake up and come. We have a common enemy and goal."

This is also a prerequisite for him to cooperate with Shadow Hunter many times.

Hodge added: "The Shadow Hunters are trying their best to collect relevant information, but our position is far from the top of Wall Street. The Mensa Church has provided some information, which is not very detailed."

After the last raid on the Mensa Church, the Mensa Church has nominally become a peripheral intelligence organization for the Shadow Hunters.

But the information provided is all castrated versions.

Ronan took out the newspaper he brought with him, put it on the table, pointed to a small island in the southeast of Manhattan and said, "This is a private island, the Morgan Manor is here, and this is also the base camp of Morgan's vampires, Lilith The altar was built in the manor."

Magnus said: "It is close to ten kilometers from the coast, and if there is no particularly large disturbance, it will be difficult for people outside the island to notice and it will be easy to move."

Ronan continued: "I launched an attack on the main members of the Morgan family. I thought it was a secret enough, but I didn't expect to alarm the members of the Morgan family. Since yesterday during the day, the heads of the Morgan family, Chris Morgan and Barbara Morgan The couple asked the main family members to temporarily withdraw to the island."

Pointing to the private island: "The elite guard force of the Morgan family is currently also concentrated on the island."

He carefully explained the affairs of the Morgan family, including that the Morgan couple might be the earl, and that the Marquis was sleeping in the Morgan family.

Shadow Hunter never lacks determination and will, and Hodge asked Ronan directly: "What do you think?"

Ronan said: "Act as soon as possible, and Lilith must not be awakened! Don't leave any chance for the vampire!"

Hodge stared at the map for a moment, and said, "Raid Morgan Manor, eliminate all vampires, and destroy the Lilith altar!"

Magnus echoed: "I agree!"

Jocelyn said, "I agree!"

The Big Three of Shadowhunters agree, action is imminent!

The two sides have cooperated several times, and there is a basic foundation of trust. Hodge asked Ronan directly: "How much power can you mobilize?"

The main purpose of this operation against the Morgan family is to help Jess complete her promotion and obtain the fine gold and mithril from the Morgan family, and to delay Lilith's awakening as much as possible.

Ronan did a lot of preparatory work. In order to prevent accidental injury, he said, "There are roughly three people on my side, four extraordinary monsters."

"What about strength?" Hodge asked again.

Ronan said rather vaguely: "One is a second-order peak, one is a third-order, and the four monsters are under the control of my people, all of which have strengths above second-order."

He paused for a moment, then said, "They're ready."

Hodge nodded without asking any more questions, and said to Magnus and Jocelyn: "Call all Shadow Hunters immediately, without further delay, we will set off in the early morning!"

Magnus and Jocelyn lead the way.

The shadow hunters who were originally scattered throughout New York quickly rushed to Greenwood Cemetery to gather after receiving the notice.

"You rest here for a while." Hodge said to Ronan: "I will let you know when I leave."

Ronan knew he had a lot to do: "You go ahead."

Hodge left the chapel alone, went all the way to the top of the hill in the cemetery, and returned to the City of Bones. After a brief exchange with the priest of the gravekeeper, he entered the next floor of the sacrifice hall, and took another Under the sword of the Archangel!
