Mystery: Death Singer

Inside Dunn Smith's office at Blackthorn Security.

Dunn had already entered the underground, preparing to retrieve "Saint Selena's ashes," while Klein paced back and forth in the corridor, his heart filled with uncontrollable panic.

There weren't many people left at Blackthorn Security Company. Besides Klein and Leonard, there was only Dunn Smith and a few Extraordinary individuals responsible for guarding the Charnis Gate.

If they choose to retrieve "Saint Selena's Ashes", the sealing power behind the Charnis Gate will inevitably go out of control, so the guards will have no chance of coming up to help.

In other words, even if Megas really was pregnant with the child of an evil god, only Klein, Leonard, and Dunn would be able to stand up and face the enemy before the support from the "Church of Storms" and the "Church of the God of Steam and Machines" arrived.

The enormous difference in strength, visible to the naked eye, caused Klein to become uncontrollably tense, a tension that even a semi-meditative state could not completely suppress.

Just then, Klein saw the surroundings suddenly darken, and one after another, long, white bones emerged from the ground, followed by the appearance of a huge skeletal messenger in front of him.

"The bronze whistle works?" He raised his eyebrows in delight, taking the letter from the messenger as he spoke:

"Please wait a moment, I have another letter here."

The mission was complete, and the skeletal messenger, which was about to return to the spirit world, suddenly stopped disintegrating and stopped in front of Klein.

The latter then took out the paper and pen used for divination and quickly wrote a short letter:

"The guy who messed up my fate and took your child's skull has appeared. He 'arranged' for Megalos to enter Blackthorn Security at 36 Zotland Street. Megalos is very likely pregnant with the offspring of an evil god."

"The situation is critical."

Seeing the skeletal messenger suddenly disintegrate, Klein finally had time to turn his gaze to the letter he had just received:

"Mr. Azik's letter? What did he discover...?"

Klein's gaze swept over the letter, and he suddenly froze, his forehead instantly covered in cold sweat.

On that piece of paper were several lines of warning written in Rune:

"If you intend to deal with Megas, then lure her into Charis Gate; if you intend to wait for help, then under no circumstances should you retrieve any items related to high-sequence powerhouses!"

"Even the lowest, most instinctive resentment will react violently upon sensing divine power!"

Without any hesitation, Klein took off running towards the direction of Charness Gate.

Although he didn't know who the letter belonged to, it was clearly written that as a remnant of "Saint Selena," her ashes would definitely stimulate the fetus in Megos's womb, ultimately leading to premature birth!

In front of the underground guard room, Sigia Teon, who was pacing back and forth, saw Klein rushing down at high speed. His expression changed, and he asked incredulously:

"Megao's had an accident?! Is Leonard still alive?!"

Just then, the door opened a crack from the inside, and Dunn Smith appeared before the two men, holding a silver square box.

Seeing Klein, who should have been up there, appear here, a trace of pain flashed in Dunn's eyes. He instinctively thought that Leonard, who was responsible for comforting Megos, had met with misfortune.

But the next moment, he heard Klein blurt out:

"Captain! The ashes of Saint Selena are the remains of a high-sequence powerhouse. The power contained within will surely alert the fetus in Megaos's womb, causing it to be born prematurely!"

Upon hearing this, Dunn's eyes glazed over for a moment, then he said, half in fear and half in confusion:

"I...I think I forgot about this...How could I forget?!"

Dunn's eyes instantly sharpened. As a seasoned night watchman with fifteen years of experience, he immediately sensed that something was wrong with his condition and suspected that he was being secretly influenced by some kind of sealed artifact.

But time was of the essence, and Dunn had no time to recall any possible clues. He made a decisive statement:

"We cannot let Megoss leave. The fetus in her womb poses an enormous threat to the surrounding population. Its birth alone could take the lives of hundreds or thousands of people. We must keep the battlefield locked down here."

"I'll go back to Charnis Gate first. You and Sega go to the hall and try to lure Megas here with Leonard. Even if it's just in front of Charnis Gate, we can get some help."

Dunn's gaze was heavy. He knew that this mission was extremely dangerous and difficult for the three low-sequence Night Watchers, but there was no other way.

Because Dunn has already established a preliminary connection with "Saint Selena's Ashes", he can achieve resonance in a short time and maximize the effect of this first-level sealed artifact.

If it is disconnected now, then the "Saint Selena's Ashes" must be resealed behind the Charnis Gate to prevent its extraordinary power from affecting Klein and the others.

Re-establishing contact will also take some time.

But what they lack most is time. Once Megas enters the underground, even without the stimulation of "Saint Selena's Ashes", the fetus in her womb will sense the sealing power on the Charis Gate and will be born prematurely because it feels threatened.

Therefore, Dunn could not possibly sever his connection with "Saint Selena's Ashes". He could only hope that Klein and the others would succeed in their operation and lead Megas underground, to the front of Charnis Gate, or even into the interior of Charnis Gate.

—Once Megous enters the Charis Gate, Dunn is confident that he can kill or seal her, even if the opponent is a child of an evil god!

…………

In the sofa area of ​​the reception hall, Leonard didn't dare to make any move as he watched the increasingly agitated Megoss in front of him, fearing that he would provoke her riot at any moment.

Fortunately, he finally saw Klein's figure appear in the corridor, and quickly forced a smile, saying to Megoss, whose eyes had lost all their light:

I'm going to the restroom.

"OK……"

Leonard stood up instantly, but tried to control his speed to avoid provoking Megas.

After entering the corridor, he looked at Klein and Sega, who were both looking anxious, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness... thank goodness... the 'worst' scenario the old man described didn't happen, we still have hope..."

The three quickly and quietly plotted for a while. In the end, Leonard persuaded Sega by using his "romantic temperament" and "skill at deceiving women" as excuses. They defeated Klein by a score of 2 to 1 and successfully took on the role of the absolute protagonist in the mission of luring Megas to the underground.
