Transcendent Dawn Chapter 222: Shadow
Dangdang!
At twelve o’clock at midnight, a carriage quietly stopped in front of the apartment amid the roar of the big clock in the living room.
Sulu put on a black robe and a mask covering the upper half of his face, and went straight into the carriage.
The carriage started immediately and stopped somewhere on the pier.
Sulu changed another boat and watched the other side turn to the bottom of a cliff and enter the city's sewer system along a certain sewage outlet.
‘Lorry is close to the sea, is this its sewage outlet to the sea? ’
Sulu thinks his guess is very possible.
He admires the designer of this city a little bit. Under it, there seems to be a town underneath.
"It's here!"
The boatman stopped on a fork and gave Sulu a lantern: "Walk along the fork to the end!"
‘Always feel...like some evil organization gathering, although the situation is almost the same...’
Sulu secretly slandered. After getting on the shore, with the light of the lantern, he began to walk deep and shallow in the dirt, and finally reached the end.
It is a thick black wall with a few strange symbols of unknown meaning, composed of half-arc lines and triangles, similar to children's graffiti.
But Sulu, who is sufficiently knowledgeable in mystery, can tell the difference at a glance.
"This is Hofflin's cipher text... Hofflin is a race that lives in legends, who likes all kinds of pranks and puzzle games... In the folks, they often steal precious treasures or someone and invite warriors Let’s try out the legend of breaking through levels...and this symbol represents a puzzle game."
Sulu studied it, and drew an arc on the wall with his finger, connected several symbols representing ‘passing’, and clicked one by one.
rumbling!
Just as he made the last stroke, the inside of the wall made the sound of gears turning, and half of the wall slowly retreated, revealing a new path.
‘The power of the extraordinary among the citizens of Lori is beyond my expectations...’
Sulu's inspiration was released outside, and after investigating it, he went in with the lamp.
After walking through the tunnel, I came to a huge underground air-raid shelter.
It is more than ten meters high here, like the banquet hall of a certain castle, surrounded by some stones that actively emit light.
In the middle of the ‘hall’, there is a long table with many chairs around it.
There are probably more than thirty of them. At this time, half of them are already sitting on top of them, and a lot of scrutinizing gazes are directly looking over.
"Welcome, newcomer!"
An old voice sitting on the main seat spoke: "You can pass through the puzzle wall in such a short period of time. Your attainments in occultism are amazing."
While he was speaking, Sulu felt that many eyes were more focused on himself.
There are even some vague detections.
"Huh!"
He snorted coldly, his spiritual pressure solidified on his body surface, exuding a breath of dragon power.
A lot of the power lingering in the air was frightened back. Several people in black trembled and whispered: "Elite? Or even above?"
Even in this kind of gathering, we still pay attention to the natural law of the weak and the strong.
Sulu felt that many of his gazes suddenly became less aggressive, but with a trace of dread.
"Please don’t get me wrong, only newcomers will come through that door... We have another channel, of course... You passed the'test'. After this meeting, I will tell you another way, more Convenient way."
The old man on the main seat continued: "You can give yourself a code name."
"Call me... Scholar!"
Sulu's voice was slightly hoarse, and he found an empty seat to sit down, and at the same time compared this place with the gatherings of extraordinary people he had encountered before.
Although the black market in Charles City is larger and more free than this, it seems to lack a kind of concealment and has official forces to intervene. And the one brought by Fatima in Niah City was concealed enough, but it was too casual.
The gathering here, but let him see a kind of ‘understanding’ and ‘history’.
thought for a while, he said: "I always thought...this is just a gathering of extraordinary people?"
"Hehe..."
Most of the black-robed people present laughed lowly: "This is indeed an extraordinary gathering, unofficial!"
"It's just... our history has a long history. Recently, after the arrival of the wave of dawn of the gods, some ‘new blood’ has also become more..."
The old man sitting at the top said: "We...are the masters of this city in the dark! In some circles in Rory, we are called the'Shadow Council'! You can call me... Speaker! Of course, the reason why we are here most is to trade with each other, exchange magical items and intelligence, or mediate some disputes."
The elder of the Speaker continued in a calm tone: "For example, this time...the gangster in Rory City shuffled. Originally, the shark would be on the strike list. Because of you, it can be kept...temporarily."
‘Speaking of which...this is the collection of underground forces in Rory City? Can they control the city of Rory in the dark and even influence the city hall through various inextricable relationships? ’
Sulu probably understands.
The party that I came here is semi-fixed, and the specifications are quite high.
It seems... I was taken advantage of by Michael of Shark Club.
"Our members here are divided into two categories, one is official members, and the other is newcomers like you... Of course, if you work hard, you should soon become our official member~ IndoMTL.com~At that time, we will help you take root in this city and let your family continue your glory..."
To the left of Sulu, a woman continued to tempt her with a charming voice.
"How do I become a full member? To complete the ‘task’ of the council or submit a ‘contribution’?"
Sulu leaned back in his chair and asked with a leisurely smile.
Any form of organization is similar in this regard.
"What a clever little brother, my sister likes you..." The charming woman is very exciting just by her voice: "My code name is'saint', I believe... we may cooperate in the future. "
Just as the two of them were talking, from the surrounding darkness, some people in black robes came and looked for a seat.
"Okay!"
The old ‘speaker’ spoke: "Everyone is here, let’s welcome the newcomer-scholars!"
He took the lead in applauding, and there was a sparse applause in the hall, which soon subsided.
"So... let's get to the topic!"
The Speaker coughed and said: "I got news that after the Niah City Tiankeng incident, the Federation has made up its mind that Congress will pass the Duke Act!"
The atmosphere below suddenly became quiet.
Sulu is very clear that the so-called "Duke Act" is actually the Professional Registration Act, which aims to disclose the existence of extraordinary people and restrict them, because the nominated member is called Duke, nicknamed the Duke Act .
