Life Dungeon Game

The man in black looked up at the man in the white suit, then lowered his head again. "This time it might be some kind of special organization using his 'little nephew's' name to cause trouble. After all, there are too many voice-spoofing apps these days, and you can't always be sure it's the real person over the phone."

He continued quietly, "This time, it was probably a group of heavily armed elites who raided Garrod's people in SUVs and taxis. After killing all the witnesses, they erased all traces and disguised themselves as a child who had been there."

"For an elite squad, this operation is not difficult. They may want to disguise themselves as a 'ghost returning from the storm sea' to hinder the church's plans."

"A ghost returning from a stormy sea?"

The man in the white suit chuckled. He withdrew his gaze, turned his head, and looked at the crystal window beside him. The city outside the window was quiet and silent, and the sky gradually darkened under the falling snowflakes.

He spoke again, his tone icy, "No ghost can withstand the light of eternity. I'll give you a day to find out every clue. Whether what's hiding behind it is a real 'ghost' or not, I'll make him see the price of provoking me."

"grown ups,"

The man in black nodded, then whispered, "If the curtain..."

"Those people really intend to sabotage our Integrated Security Federation's plans; they might even attack tonight's banquet."

"Then let them come."

The man in the white suit continued gazing out the window, a fleeting golden light flashing in his eyes. "This saves me the trouble of dragging out these ignorant 'ghosts.' The eternal light will cleanse their sins, and I'm happy to have more new 'collections.'"

“By the way,” he turned to look at the man in black, “has my ‘collection’ been shipped out?”

"It's already been sent to the main banquet hall,"

The man in black seemed to remember something, his voice stiffened slightly, and he continued, "We've prepared a special booth for it, covered with a curtain. You'll definitely be able to give those security company managers a 'surprise' then."

"Relax,"

The man in the white suit turned around, walked to the man in black, and gently patted him on the shoulder. "It's just a small 'collectible,' an inanimate object, not some terrifying monster. There's no need to be so afraid."

Then he brushed past the man in black, and as if remembering something, casually asked, "What time is it?"

"It's almost six o'clock, sir,"

The man in black glanced at the bracelet and replied in a low voice, "As usual, the heads of the security companies will arrive around 6:30, and we'll start the banquet promptly at 7:00. The kitchen is almost ready."

"That's good, that's good."

The man in the white suit nodded, and as he walked towards the door, he chuckled, "I'm already quite eager to let them see my 'collection,' but unfortunately, there's only one. It would be wonderful if my old friend could also have one made into a 'collection.'"

"It's so lucky that it's part of my collection. It can be passed down for thousands of years, and may even outlive me."

The man in black kept his head down and remained silent.

-

5:55 PM.

He glanced at the time on his bracelet, then turned to look at the closed gate nestled in the shade of the trees ahead.

This is 12 Norcart Street, the place Garold mentioned where Kate organized the Security Association's 'banquet'.

Norcat Street is also located in the Cloud District, but not at the very top of the Cloud District. Instead, it is located near the Norvit District, where there is a row of somewhat old villas nestled among a row of landscaped trees.

Noctober 12 is one of them.

He looked up, glanced around to make sure there were no cameras nearby, and then had Eve drive the SUV toward the gate of Nocart 12.

He wasn't worried that Garold was lying to him.

Firstly, in order to attract his attention at that time, Garold would most likely tell the truth to appear credible.

Secondly, in his second vision, the villa was surrounded by a large number of distorted patterns, which meant that the villa might be filled with a lot of supernatural power and hide some kind of secret.

Combining these two factors, this villa is most likely the venue where Kate held her 'banquet'.

And whether it's a banquet venue or not, you'll know once you try it out.

There were two guard posts at the entrance of the villa, and several men in security uniforms were standing at the gate, one of whom was watching He Ao's SUV.

They drove over quickly and stopped He Ao's SUV.

"Hello, please show me your invitation."

Security personnel knocked on the driver's side window.

He Ao lowered the car window and looked at the security guard. "Have your leader come to see me."

Just as the security guard was about to say something, he felt a cold gaze sweep over his soul, making him tremble involuntarily.

He gazed at He Ao's youthful face, paused, and said softly, "Please wait a moment."

Then he turned around and said something to someone in the crowd who looked like a security captain. After a while, the security captain came over.

He glanced at He Ao sitting in the driver's seat, paused briefly, and then quickly said,

"Hello, if you wish to enter, you will need to present an invitation. Additionally, we need to check your vehicle to ensure you are not carrying any dangerous weapons. In principle, our invitations are only for adults..."

He didn't finish his sentence, because in the brief moment he spoke, He Ao had already taken out a pendant that emitted a light golden light from his pocket.

"you are?"

His pupils contracted, and he bent over, pressing his face against the car window, asking in a trembling voice.

"Is Kate hosting a party inside tonight?"

He Ao remained expressionless, seemingly ignoring his earlier words, and calmly asked.

The security captain paused, and after a brief hesitation, he nodded cautiously. "Yes..."

"You can report my arrival, but don't ask any questions."

He put away the pendant, leaned back in his chair, and stared straight at the door across the street.

"Okay, okay,"

The security captain straightened up, wiped the sweat from his brow, and looked up at his colleagues guarding the door. "Open the door! Open the door!"

The security personnel standing at the door immediately pressed the switch, and the tightly closed door slowly opened.

"You also have..."

The security captain turned around and looked at He Ao.

"Thank you, eternal light."

He Ao said calmly.

Without the pendant sponsored by Eternal Light, it would be a bit troublesome for him to go in directly.

"Thank you, eternal light."

The security captain immediately replied.

Then he watched as the SUV's window rolled up, the vehicle started, and drove into the villa.

"Boss, who is that?"

The first security guard who stopped the SUV ran over and asked with some curiosity.

"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."

The security captain spat, then continued in a low voice, "That's the 'Priest'."

"Such a young priest?"

The younger-looking security guard seemed incredulous, but then he remembered the cold gaze he had just received and instinctively trembled. "So we're just going to let him in like that?"

"What else do you want?"

The security captain snorted coldly, "That's not someone we can stop. If the priest kills you, it'll be like killing a dog for me. We'll just report it to the higher-ups and hand it over."

"Yes Yes."

The ordinary security personnel nodded.

"Work hard,"

The security captain patted his subordinate on the shoulder, "After we get back tonight, we'll go to the Storm Zone tomorrow to collect the 'offerings,' and there will be plenty for us."

Upon hearing this, the ordinary security guard's eyes lit up.

"Boss, I saw a girl at a house on Linhai Street the other day..."

"Are you a believer?"

"The security captain asked."

“No,” the security guard said immediately, a strange smile playing on his lips, “not a believer.”

“These filthy unbelievers deserve to pay the price for their arrogance,”

The security captain patted his subordinate on the shoulder. "We need to teach them a lesson. Alright, go to your post."

"Yes!"

The security personnel immediately became excited and returned to their posts.

The security captain glanced around, touched the gun at his waist, activated his wristband, and returned to his post.

······

After entering the gate, there is a spacious 'courtyard', and to the left front of the courtyard is the entrance to the deep underground parking lot.

He Ao got out of the car carrying a knight's sword and a harpoon, let Eve drive into the underground parking lot, and then looked up at the scene in front of him.

The courtyard was quite luxurious, with a wide lawn and a semi-transparent greenhouse where all kinds of flowers were growing in a riot of color.

Behind the greenhouse and greenery stands a towering villa.

This majestic villa stands beneath the snow, like a cold fortress, silently watching everything outside.

He took out the pendant, hung it around his neck, and walked along the path in the courtyard, bypassing the greenhouses, and soon arrived at the villa entrance.

At this moment, some staff members dressed in black are busy at the entrance of the villa.

Most of them were physically strong and had fierce faces, looking more like gang members than villa servants.

One of the men standing at the main entrance, who seemed to be the squad leader, noticed He Ao. He looked at He Ao with a puzzled and impatient expression, "You over there..."

How do I get to the banquet hall?

He Ao glanced at him calmly and asked.

The squad leader trembled, looking at He Ao with some suspicion. Then he saw the pendant on He Ao's chest and immediately said respectfully, "Priest, go to the end and you will see the elevator. Take the elevator to the third floor. The banquet hall where this banquet is being held is right in front of the elevator."

"OK, thanks."
