The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 579: Questers come to the door

"Mr. Dickinson, that is to say..." Captain Kegel Lucius stared at Sean with a pair of gray eyes, "Before this unfortunate incident happened, did something suspicious happen to your newspaper? "

"Yes, a raven crashed into the printing machine."

"Then did you ask a professional to take a look at it?"

Obviously, what Lucius meant was, did Sean ask the explorer to check it out.

"Oh..." Sean became a little annoyed at this point. He's a mystic himself, didn't check it out yesterday—

"I thought it was just a raven, sir." Sean suppressed the strong self-blame, and continued, "I thought it was just a crazy raven crashing into the machine..."

Sure enough, it was a young man from Leon. Lucius expressed his understanding in his heart—foreigners are not always in awe of mystery.

Seeing Lucius' eyes as if looking at a stranger who didn't understand the rules, Xiao En felt even more uncomfortable.

He could only turn around speechlessly, trying to calm down.

The shepherd team member who checked the resentment returned to the captain and whispered a few words.

The captain, who seemed too calm, walked behind Sean again: "Mr. Dickinson, your newspaper may be closed for a few days..."

"What's wrong?"

"After the test, there is a Queen-level evil threat in this basement." Lucius commanded the team, as if preparing to withdraw, "After we leave, you have the responsibility to ensure that no one except professionals steps into this basement." basement, or you are liable for more damage. Also…

"Do you need me to issue a mission in the Mystery Explorers Association for you? Or do you have any esoteric explorers you know?"

Sean's mood has fallen to the bottom. He didn't speak, just shook his head.

The shepherd team took away Levi's body, emptied the basement by the way, and affixed a magical seal on the door of the basement.

"Remember, Mr. Dickinson..." Before leaving, Lucius turned around and instructed, "The raven symbolizes bad omens. In New Testament City, we will not ignore any bad omens."

Although he didn't have enough cash on hand, Sean borrowed 3,000 New Zealand dollars from the bank as a pension for Levi's family.

Sean doesn't care about the loss of money and the benefits of the newspaper. What really makes him sad is the tragic death of his own employees.

As a senior mystery explorer, it is impossible for Sean to hand over this case to others—he has to personally observe this matter to get to the bottom of it.

However, in order to prevent the outside world from associating the "Sea of ​​Shimmer" with him, Sean could only perform some performances.

After making careful arrangements, Sean called his team the next day and rushed to the newspaper office.

Parked the Ford car with the Eye of the Explorer on the side of the road, Sea of ​​Shimmer, Moon Soloist, Gray Swan, and Eye of Annihilation, this team that could undertake King-level missions appeared outside the newspaper office.

This excited the nerves of those journalists who had been guarding outside the newspaper office after hearing the news.

They rushed out from the waiting corner and raised their cameras at a distance.

Click, click!

The flashes kept coming on—photographing Questers was forbidden by the association, but some journalists acted recklessly on the basis that Questers couldn't do anything to civilians.

After a group of people passed by, the Eye of Annihilation who walked at the end snapped his fingers. His psychic essence had already penetrated into the film of those cameras, and it only needed a little thunder to fully expose the film.

As for the damage to the camera, Evan Burns certainly didn't care.

From a distance, "Sea of ​​Twilight" saw a group of people from the newspaper office waiting at the door—Leon entrepreneur, Sean Dickinson and his assistant, editor-in-chief Norton, and others.

Seeing the vivid "self" and Olivia in front of him with natural expressions, Sean couldn't help sighing that Ivan, who had been in seclusion for a long time, had become more powerful with his "mimetic parrot" secret technique.

"Mr. Shimmering Sea!" "Sean Dickinson" walked over in a very dignified but polite manner, and held Shimmering Sea's hand tightly, "You are finally here!"

At this time, a reporter in the distance took this photo.

And it was this photo, as well as the witnesses at the scene, that separated Sean Dickinson from the "Sea of ​​Shimmer" and even the identity of the explorer for a long time. People have conclusively believed that Sean is just an ordinary entrepreneur.

Led by Evening News and his team, the Sea of ​​Shimmer team came to the iron gate of the basement.

"It's right here." The president of the newspaper was a few steps away from the iron gate, obviously not wanting to get close, "The Shepherd Team said that only professionals can get close."

"Okay." The soloist under the moon turned around, with a crescent moon shining on his forehead, "I'm afraid everyone has to leave here temporarily—is there anyone else in the newspaper office?"

"No more." "Sean" looked a little nervous.

"Okay. The cellar door will remain closed while we perform the exorcism, in case something escapes that shouldn't escape.

"Unless we come out and declare the quest is over, no one is allowed to approach this building, understand?"

After the president responded, he led his employees out through the front door.

Evan Burns walked to the front of the iron gate, tapped the seal with his gloved fingers, and injected a little spiritual power, the seal was sure that the person who entered was a secret explorer, and it fell off the wall automatically.

The shepherd team also received a signal from the explorers to intervene in the agreement site, and they will pay attention to the situation to ensure that no unexpected situation occurs.

The iron door seemed to be blown open by a strong wind, and an unbelievable smelly wind blew from the depths...

"Evil is developing faster than expected." Ivan said, staring at the darkness.

Olivia Windchime looked into the dark basement. Xie Yi seems to have completely remodeled the interior of the basement. The basement, which originally had windows for lighting, is now completely dark.

"Be careful." The moonlight reminded Ivan who was walking in the front. At this moment, the Eye of Annihilation raised a hand, and the palm of the hand radiated a strong light, dispelling a small darkness in front of him.

Facing such a dense darkness~lightnovelpub.net~ Sean can definitely use her "Oath Torch".

However, as the captain, he found that the versatility of the oath torch was too strong, and he thought it was necessary to allow other team members to play a role, so he decided not to use divine power as much as possible in less dangerous tasks.

A group of people walked down the cast iron stairs into the basement.

The darkness stretched out in all directions, with no end in sight. The bottom of the stairs extended into a black pool, and when I got closer, I found that the basement was full of black ink.

The Blackpool seemed endless.

Ivan snapped his fingers lightly with the other hand, the rune in his hand changed, and a stream of smoke heavier than air flowed out from his palm, flowing forward like frosty air, unexpectedly freezing the ink for a while.

In the darkness, Moonlight looked at his captain, and the meaning in that look was obvious: Ivan, you are really too reliable.

A group of people walked along the black ice, towards the depths of the basement...
