My Salvation Game Became true?!-Chapter 145 - 143: The Foreign Branch of the Torch Organisation
Chapter 145: Chapter 143: The Foreign Branch of the Torch Organisation
An elegant aristocratic youth, codenamed ‘Prince’.
Just like his codename, he was the chief enforcement officer of the Super Combat Department, commanding many Awakeners.
The reason he climbed to the position of chief was partly due to the support of his family, but he was truly a formidable individual in his own right.
Having undergone a second Awakening, his ability was formidable, his talent unmatched.
His subordinates were all very convinced.
This time, the Super Combat Bureau also realized that the situation in Snowy City was a bit unusual, and ‘Prince’ Anderson happened to be not too far from there.
So he came personally.
However, compared to the heretical cultists, Prince Anderson was more interested in that Miss Silvery Bell.
Soon, Anderson met with Miss Silvery Bell.
Intellectual, elegant, gentle, her sweet smile seemed to dispel all the unhappiness in one’s heart.
His eyes lit up instantly.
He dusted off the dust on his clothes, placed his left hand on his chest, and paid his respects with the elegant etiquette of the nobility.
Like a proud peacock.
The several female Awakeners of the Super Combat Team had stars twinkling in their eyes.
But Silvery Bell didn’t know any etiquette, nor did she have the mind for it.
“You seem unaware of the seriousness of the problem.”
“Oh no, beautiful miss, whether it’s serious or not, this is an internal affair of our Wavemist Nation. Strictly speaking, as Dong Huang official Awakeners, to interfere in our Wavemist affairs, is to provoke an international dispute.”
Anderson revealed a smile, “Of course, as a gentleman, I would be very pleased to have dinner with a beautiful young lady like you.”
He was indeed like an elegant noble.
But not a qualified chief officer.
Silvery Bell showed an impatient look, becoming more and more unwilling to talk; oh, why is the mission given by the mentor so troublesome! Annoyed to death!
She gave a meaningful glance.
Illusionary Pupil took the video she had recorded while interrogating the cultist and omitted the means they had used, but the confessions of the cultists were completely intact.
At this moment, the information was displayed before the eyes of each member of the Super Combat Department’s team.
There were more than ten double-Awakened gray-robed devotees!
That was more than their entire Super Combat Department!
Just this piece of information alone made them turn pale with shock.
Anderson fell silent completely, remaining so for a good while before finally speaking, “Well, this was our neglect. Now, please let us talk again, to formally discuss.”
“I represent the Wavemist Nation’s Super Combat Department, and you? Do you come from the Investigative Bureau or the Special Combat Squad?”
But he was also puzzled.
This era was different than before; every country was lacking in awakeners. Huang Country’s powerhouses might be more numerous than in Wavemist Nation, but Dong Huang’s population and territory were also much larger.
Not enough manpower to deal with the Mysterious Evil incidents within his own country, so why would they travel thousands of miles to their Wavemist Nation?
And the one who came was a ‘National Pillar’ level powerhouse.
It made no sense.
Among the well-known powerhouses of Dong Huang, it seemed none matched the description of Miss Silvery Bell.
But Anderson indeed sensed a profound threat from Silvery Bell, which was derived from his talent; he was certain that her strength was no less than his own.
She was without a doubt a Pillar Powerhouse!
Another young man from the East also gave him a strong sense of danger.
He was also a powerhouse.
This puzzled him even more.
“Dong Huang official? Not at all.”
“We come from an organization not influenced by secular powers.”
Named Xin Huo.
Luo Rui added in his heart, with pride and arrogance.
…
Oulu Continent, within a small nation.
Compared to major nations like Wavemist Nation, Sunset Country, etc., these small countries undoubtedly had it much harder, by several orders of magnitude.
Mysterious Evil roared, buildings were in ruins.
It was a scene of apocalypse.
Only a few towns retained a semblance of safety on the surface, but it was merely on the surface; order had long since ceased to be maintained, with looting and pillaging rampant, and many Awakeners’ powers were used within human conflicts.
The ugliness of human nature was undoubtedly on full display.
“Heh heh heh heh heh…”
The vile voice of an Awakener suddenly stopped.
The person was grabbed by the neck and lifted up.
And thrown forcefully.
Boom—
The figure was tossed like a sandbag across the street, crashing into the wall on the other side.
“Scum!”
A burly man appeared and shook off his hand.
Accompanying the burly man were four other men and women, a young woman helping up a raggedy-dressed young girl, comforting her in a low voice.
“Roland, Burl Town seems to be in even worse shape.”
“Have you noticed? The mist is starting to roll in around us.”
“It’s gray mist, and it doesn’t feel right.”
“Be careful!”
Within this somewhat dilapidated town, a fog suddenly surged.
Within the mist, the hideous forms of monsters lurked.
Before they knew it, the town was filled with monster figures—they had been surrounded.
The burly man Roland drew his greatsword, his expression solemn, “Stick close to me, and let’s break out together.”
Humility! Honesty! Compassion! Valor! Justice! Sacrifice! Honor! Soul!
His greatsword gleamed with a brilliant white light, slicing the hideous monster in two.
He fought his way through, with hardly any monster proving to be his match.
But the number of monsters was still too great.
If it were only the burly man Roland and his companions, they could have broken out of this town, yet Roland could not abandon the survivors who followed. He even repeatedly went back to rescue others.
They were gradually surrounded by monsters.
“I’m sorry, but if given another chance to choose, I might still do the same.”
“Hey, what are you talking about, man? You can’t be the only hero.”
“Thinking of making us cowards? Not happening.”
Roland leaned on his greatsword.
Repeated use of his Awakened Ability to slay monsters had already taken a considerable toll on him, and he gasped for breath without stopping.
Yet, a giant monster appeared in his field of vision, its terrible roar echoing in his ears.
Is this the end?
He prepared for his last stand, but suddenly noticed at the end of the street, beneath the shroud of grey fog, a figure slowly approaching.
The newcomer was clad in a white robe, with an indiscernible face.
With each step they took, light began to emanate from their body.

Golden light!
Like a pillar, it shot straight into the sky, dispersing the dense grey fog.
The Mysterious Evil in his field of vision, like a shark that had smelled blood, lunged toward the golden figure. But before Roland could even feel apprehensive, an even more brilliant light burst forth before his eyes.
He felt as if he were witnessing a god.
All filth between heaven and earth was cleansed away.
…
“I hadn’t expected to stumble upon a door to the Ghastly Realm.”
Fang You shook his head.
He had come to the Oulu Continent to find a suitable location to establish a branch of his organization and create an entrance to a Secret Realm.
That way, it would be more convenient to travel back and forth from his home country.
It would also make it easier to mobilize forces in the fight against heretical cultists.
Unexpectedly, a door to the Ghastly Realm had appeared right in the middle of the town, an exceedingly rare occurrence.
Moreover,
Just now, in order to claim the reward for the Ghastly Realm’s door, he quickly established a ‘map anchor’ using himself as a coordinate, and so, he had seen the situation surrounding the town.
The map was tinged with a faint grey.
It was a contamination zone.
And not just any—that of a middle level!
Even though the Ghastly Realm’s door might be closed, wisps of grey fog still pervaded the air.
Not only heretical cultists but also Mysterious Evil disasters are severe outside the country.
Fang You frowned.
Thinking of cultists made his headache worse.
Silver Bell had already reported the situation to him, mentioning the sheer number of cultists in Burl Town, and the most crucial part, that it had taken so little time!
If this trend continued, the heretical cult would grow uncontrollably, like a snowball rolling down a hill.
After all, they truly had the backing of an Evil God, even if that god might not care for them.
“Now that we’ve gotten in touch with the official departments of the Wavemist Nation, they understand the gravity of the situation and have their local branches ready to contain the cult’s momentum.”
“But to find that one priest and the den where the rituals are held, that’s still a challenge.”
Until that’s done, he won’t have peace of mind.
Description of the Maggot Man priest marked them as a ‘throne-level’ incarnation, and Fang You was now clear about what that level meant.
The Sixth Strata of Awakening: throne-level!
The King of the Mortal Realm!
Above that lay the mythic species!
The thought of a throne-level priest existing on Blue Star was chilling… and there might be more than one.
“The Wavemist Nation has the support of the super combat department, but it isn’t very reliable. We must still dispatch more of our Fire Holders to investigate more areas and gather clues.”
“And not just in the Wavemist Nation, the other key towns also need to be scouted.”
“Yet our manpower is far from adequate.”
He pondered.
He could temporarily send Mage Ming Deng and Luo Jianxing there.
And then there was Silver Bell…
Silver Bell spent two minutes reporting her tasks to him, but eight minutes complaining.
His head hurt from it, and he was truly a bit afraid.
Silver Bell’s ‘bitter’ medicine was indeed a unique skill of Fire Holder.
“Silver Bell’s skills and Ability are very suitable for interrogation; others, like Illusionary Pupil, can only hypnotize ordinary people, which is no use.”
“But Silver Bell has a point; she is a physician, and she has several potions nearly ready for market.”
“Let her come back; have Black Blade take over for her.”
And the others?
Xing Jing Lei, Pei Hongjing, and Yiluo Xi all had their tasks, their schedules packed.
From bottom to top, everyone was short-handed.
He brought his thoughts back to the present and looked at Roland and the others he had rescued, focusing on Roland, “How about it? You’re a man with potential and a heart of justice, but individual power is ultimately too insignificant.”
Too insignificant?
Roland admitted his power was insignificant, but the Dazzling Thunderlight that had annihilated all the monsters in an instant was anything but. Moreover, after the battle, a wave of his hand had scattered light that gradually brought back those who were frothing at the mouth and mentally deranged to a state of normalcy.
They were miracles!
This shook him.
And from this god-like strong man before him, he had learned much secret knowledge.
“Mysterious Evil, doors to the Ghastly Realm.”
“Our world is being consumed; indeed… I do not want to be powerless, and I cannot stand by and watch disasters unfold. I am willing to embark on this path, to contribute to the future of the world, to become a Fire Holder in the darkness!”
“We are as well.”
“How could the world be saved without us?”
Several of Roland’s companions spoke up one after another.
Fang You gave a smile,
“Fire Holder welcomes you to join us. You may address me as… Mentor.”
“Moving forward, Fire Holder will establish a stronghold here and provide you with some equipment, material support, and also teach you more abilities.”
There’s no shortage of candidates for Junior Apostles right now.
The reason he had chosen these few was because of a chance encounter, because of their righteous nature, and because…
