Chapter 522: Chapter 460 Aftermath Chapter 522: Chapter 460 Aftermath “So this is what a Wraith is like?

Quite useful indeed.”

Tao Yu watched as Klein’s bodyguard possessed Rosago’s corpse, even causing the exploded brain matter to automatically flow back, piecing together the damaged body as if it were being ‘stitched up,’ and then quickly left, revealing a hint of admiration.

Then, he said to Klein,

“You better get back quickly, I’m an informant for the Church of the Night, this matter should be easy to handle.”

Tao Yu’s words made Klein nod.

Unlike Klein, who had to keep out of the light, Tao Yu actually had a perfectly legitimate official identity.

Although technically, an ‘informant’ should not appear in public either, this was something Tao Yu could readily claim as openly known to him.

This time, he was the one ‘assassinated,’ and he was the victim!

Although the terraced house he rented for half a year and paid twenty-five Gold Pounds for was gone, and the two adjacent houses also suffered damage, Tao Yu didn’t really care much about that; it was all the assassin’s doing, and no one would say anything if he paid some extra money on top of the insurance.

…

Again, he was the victim; he had just successfully turned the tables…

He mainly needed to deal with some related inquiries, and two puppets were buried, they were the perpetrators after all, nothing shady about that…

The disturbance here was simply too great, although it was still barely dawn, police detectives were already running towards this place.

In the nearby houses, some people also started coming out in their nightgowns.

They were muttering, ‘My God!’ ‘A gas explosion, perhaps?’ ‘What happened?’

The people living here were all somewhat affluent, paying close attention to their environment.

Many houses had shattered windows, and some cracks had also appeared on the streets.

“What happened?

What’s the situation?”

The detectives came over quickly; someone turned off the nearby gas main, and when no smell was detected and no fire seen at the scene, they also breathed a sigh of relief.

A bit of luck amidst misfortune, it seemed.

And there, Tao Yu, who had some soot on him and whose clothes were tattered, was quite conspicuous.

He took out a Gold Pound and directly bought a coat from a bystander to put on.

He said to the detectives with a bitter smile,

“As you can see, a gas explosion.

If I hadn’t run fast enough, I would have been blown to death.”

“Is this your place?”

The detective looked at him with an evaluating gaze.

“To be precise, it’s where I rent.

The situation is a bit complicated.”

Tao Yu whispered a few words to the detective, also subtly using “Incite”

“I’m an informant for the Church of the Night, and this matter also involves extraordinaries; would you please inform the ‘Nightwatcher’ about this?”

The detective, who originally wanted to lecture him, seemed to be startled, then looked at Tao Yu with traces of soot and said,

“Do you need to go to the hospital for treatment?”

“If there’s one available, of course that would be best…”

…

In a hospital ward, Leonard came to see Tao Yu, who was wrapped in some bandages.

Sitting by the bed and lowering his voice, he said,

“What did you do?

There are two extraordinaries’ bodies in the ruins, one a Sequence Six Dawn Knight and the other a Sequence Seven Arsonist.”

“I originally wanted to delve deeper and find out what the Witch Sect and the Aurora Society were up to, but it seems I was discovered.

I received a piece of information that the Witch Sect seems to have wanted the Aurora Society to assassinate Ambassador Intis.”

Tao Yu deflected the attention by throwing out important intelligence.

This was an occupational injury he suffered while on a mission for the church!

Hearing Tao Yu’s words, Leonard was stunned for a moment, then fell silent.

“It’s a bit late; the Intis Ambassador was assassinated just when you were attacked.

So, it was the Witch Sect that commissioned the Aurora Society, huh?

That indeed is an important clue…”

What?

Tao Yu also felt something was off.

He was just pulling it out of thin air to make things difficult for Mr.

A.

But he didn’t expect Mr.

A to actually be so faithful!

For a moment, Tao Yu felt the remainder of the “Instigator” Magic Potion that hadn’t been fully digested completed its final digestion.

There was a sense of refreshing pleasure throughout his body.

This feeling was quite nice…

And precisely because Ambassador Intis was dead, and it happened at the time Tao Yu was attacked, it further confirmed Tao Yu’s story.

An occupational injury!

“I was planning to find you guys the next day, who knew it would happen so soon, and that I would also be targeted.”

Tao Yu complained a bit.

He paused, then continued,

“However, I can feel that there’s something odd about the two who attacked me.

By all accounts, they should have been difficult to deal with, but their movements…

how should I say it…”

“Stiff?”

“Yes, that’s it—stiff—without spirituality.

The big guy was incredibly strong, but he only knew how to hack wildly, and the arsonist was somewhat similar.

In the end, they damaged the gas pipe in their attempt to kill me and then ignited it.

Thankfully, I escaped by using the mirrored apparition…”

Tao Yu wasn’t lying, he just omitted the part about Rosago.

“I understand, I’ll report this truthfully.

𝑛𝗈𝘃𝘨𝗼.co

Have your identity been exposed?

We can bring you into our fold.”

It had to be said that the Church of the Night had a decent attitude towards free extraordinaries.

Tao Yu had timely passed on information in Tinggen, and now he had conveyed another important piece of news.

Never mind whether this information was of any use for the time being, the attitude he showed was commendable, and he had also been implicated and attacked.

Leonard wanted to help within the limits of his authority.

“Ah, actually, I don’t think the Witch Sect has noticed a problem with me, after all, you know, I have taken the Witch Potion,” Tao Yu sighed.

Initially, Eve had come to assign him a long-term surveillance mission, which he had refused.

He similarly didn’t want to get too entangled with the Church of the Night now.

No matter what, the deterrence of the True God was still there; it was just a fleeting glimpse at the beginning, but the situation in outer space had brought a tremendous shadow over him…

“No danger?”

“Should be fine, and…

I don’t want to join the Church like this…”

Tao Yu put on a helpless expression on his handsome face.

His words did not make it hard for Leonard to understand.

If he had taken a Witch Potion, perhaps he wouldn’t be too eager to join any other organization either…

“What are you thinking?

I would never take such a potion!” Leonard complained to himself.

“The property you rented has insurance compensation, and we will take care of the rest that you’re responsible for.

Rest and recover; the extraordinary characteristics of those two corpses are your spoils of war.

How do you want to deal with them?”

Tao Yu had been injured in the line of duty, and the Church of the Night was not about to covet his items.

They were mainly asking because extraordinary items could often be dangerous.

They wanted to ensure the intended use of the items.

“Can I use the Sequence Six one for a trade with the Witch Path materials?”

“I can agree to that directly, no problem.

As for the Sequence Seven Arsonist, we can help you contact the Church of Steam and Machinery if you’d like to turn it into some extraordinary item.”

The Church of Steam and Machinery was once the ‘Craftsman Church,’ best at such transformations.

Extraordinary items that extraordinaries themselves couldn’t use were usually made into auxiliary tools with side effects.

“Give me the materials first, I’ll think about it,” Tao Yu said.

“Okay…”

…

Thump, thump, thump~

At night in the hospital, Tao Yu was suddenly startled by a knocking sound at the window.

Looking up, he saw a blonde beauty wearing a black bowler hat knocking on the glass from outside, appearing as if she was inside a ‘mirror.’

She was the Wraith of Klein’s bodyguard.

Tao Yu nodded at her, and then he saw her materializing before him.

“You okay?” she asked, barely concealing her inexperience with such courteous inquiries.

“I won’t die.

The problem should be dealt with by now.

Don’t worry.

I haven’t had the chance to ask your name yet.”

“You can call me Sharon.

I’m here to discuss the division of the spoils.

Are the two items that were confiscated by the officials impounded?

If we can’t get them back, we should sell the Sequence Five characteristics and his belongings and split the money,” Sharon said, speaking meticulously, her beautiful features giving her a doll-like, somewhat clueless air.

“I can get them back.

It’s okay to treat those two as my spoils of war, right?”

“No problem,” Sharon nodded.

The three of them had tacitly cooperated this time to resolve that man’s threat.

As a result, Sharon acquired all other items from Rosago, while Klein, due to being of the same Sequence, received Rosago’s extraordinary characteristics and was required to compensate Sharon with Gold Pounds.

This conveniently offset Sharon’s bodyguard fees for the following two days, while Tao Yu obtained one Sequence Seven and one Sequence Six extraordinary characteristic, and traded for the Sequence Six characteristic from the Witch Path.

Each person obtained items that were beneficial to them, resulting in contentment for all…
