Chapter 580: Chapter 516: Watchdog
?!!!
After hearing the notification from the Secret Tail, Leon’s pupils abruptly contracted.
Sothing happened to Nicole? It’s been less than two hours since we separated!!!
"This is..."
Seeing Princess Feiliya suddenly appear on the ground, Alger was first bewildered then imdiately stood up from his chair.
"Ruben’s ability failed? Sothing happened to the director!!!"
"Hold on."
Signaling Alger to wait, Leon tightly clutched the only thing that might know the situation, the Secret Tail, and hurriedly asked:
"What’s going on with Nicole? Where’s Scorpio Director? Were they ambushed?"
"Not sure."
The Secret Tail replied:
"About two seconds before I called you, Nicole’s emotions fluctuated slightly, then she shouted for
to tell you to run quickly, and that was it."
Two seconds?!
Upon hearing this, Leon’s heart trembled.
From noticing sothing wrong to "breaking the connection," it only took two seconds? How could it be so fast?
Nicole’s side had a Zodiac Director, a Level 1 Cleaner, and three veteran Level 2 Cleaners. Even if they were besieged by three to five True Gods, they should be able to hold out for a while, right? How could there be no movent in just two seconds?
’Oh, there’s more news.’
While Leon was in doubt, the Secret Tail spoke again:
’Nicole told
to inform you that they were ambushed at the Gemini branch office and were hit by a heavy artillery barrage just after passing through the block partition wall.
For so reason, apart from her, no one else responded, and they were directly hit by the heavy artillery. Half a block...’
"Boom!!!"
Seemingly to prove the Secret Tail’s words, an incredibly violent explosion sound ca from afar, making the upper half of Crolock Kingdom’s block tremble slightly.
’All got blown away.’
After finishing the latter half of the sentence, the Secret Tail, which never spoke unless necessary, took a small breather before speaking again:
’Nicole said the other three cleaners died instantly, and Scorpio Director’s body was mostly destroyed, then his soul was sealed in the half-destroyed body by a serpent eye that appeared in the sky.
Although Scorpio Director and she are still resisting, they’re dood to lose. Nicole advised you not to worry about her and to escape Crolock Kingdom with Princess Feiliya imdiately, trying to contact the Clean-up Bureau for assistance.’
"Understood."
Leon, with a troubled expression, nodded, and before the connection was severed, he decisively said:
"Tell Nicole to imdiately shout ’Aquarius Director is my dad, you cannot touch !’, then completely remain silent, never speak another word, unless we speak first, otherwise, pretend the connection doesn’t exist!"
’Okay.’
Once the Secret Tail responded and went to relay the ssage to the female reporter, Leon quickly explained the situation to Alger and said with a tight frown:
"That’s the situation, do you have any way to remotely contact the Clean-up Bureau?"
"No..."
Upon hearing that three Level 2 Cleaners were already dead, Alger’s eyes dimd slightly, and he shook his head:
"To ensure that no matter what happens, the ssage can be transmitted back to the Clean-up Bureau, the Celestial Globe Mirror capable of remote communication has always been carried by the director, but..."
But this ti, it was Scorpio Director who had an accident, and with his body half-destroyed, he might not have the chance to use the Celestial Globe Mirror.
Leon sighed after hearing this but said nothing further. He put the unconscious Feiliya back on the chair, frowning in thought, while Alger could not resist speaking after waiting a while:
"Leon, didn’t they say for us to run quickly? So now..."
"No."
Shaking his head slightly, Leon flatly rejected:
"We can’t run now, we must stay!"
"But even the director got ambushed!"
Seeing Leon "heated up" at this ti, unwilling to abandon his companion to escape alone, Alger admired his courage but couldn’t help feeling slightly annoyed:
"The director and his strong team failed, what can we do with just the two of us?
The most important thing for us now is to take this damned princess and quickly leave Crolock Kingdom, to avoid the mission’s complete failure, and imdiately seek help from the headquarters!"
"Can’t retreat, if we retreat now, we’re definitely dead!"
After glancing up at Alger, Leon asked:
"Let
ask you, what the Clean-up Bureau values the most is keeping this royal family mber safe and ensuring Crolock Kingdom’s bloodline doesn’t extinguish. What does the opposition value the most?"
"That would be..."
Hmm... wrong!
At this point, Alger’s expression suddenly froze, and his back was covered with sweat.
The Clean-up Bureau wants to protect this princess, so the opposition naturally wants to kill her, completely severing Crolock Kingdom’s royal lineage, thus diminishing the Watcher’s Palace’s effectiveness!
And that ans, Feiliya Princess in our hands is the top priority target, and soone has been monitoring all exit routes from Crolock Kingdom ever since the princess got kidnapped. If we leave imdiately, the likelihood of getting caught couldn’t be higher!
"Alger, on the way here, I observed the terrain around Crolock Kingdom from the Sky Clipper’s porthole. Besides a large seaport to the west, the remaining three sides are all plains."
Recalling briefly, Leon said sternly:
"My ability only confuses perception within a dium range to ensure I won’t be discovered, but things like watchtowers or long-range observations can still spot us.
In this situation, it’s almost impossible for us to escape with her, but if we continue to stay in Crolock Kingdom, it’s like we’re a drop of water lost in the ocean, and they won’t find us."
"But... if we don’t leave, how do we notify the Clean-up Bureau?"
"That’s sothing to think about afterward."
Shaking his head slightly, Leon reattached the Secret Tail to Feiliya’s back, handed her to Alger, and solemnly advised:
"At this ti, firstly ensure you don’t get caught, because only when we’re alive do we have a chance to notify the Clean-up Bureau. For now, let’s hope they might think Feiliya Princess died in the ambush and gradually relax their monitoring outside the kingdom... you watch her for , I’ll be right back."
"Ah? Where are you going?"
"Realm of the Dead."
Sitting cross-legged on the chair, Leon closed his eyes and said:
"After consuming the Three-Headed Canine Deity, I’ve temporarily inherited a small part of its power, allowing
to freely enter and exit the Realm of the Dead.
Its so-called ’guarding death’ power is essentially the Gate of the Deceased’s gatekeeper... doorman, with the authority to drive back those trying to escape the Realm of the Dead or block those unworthy of entering. This is just the right ti to use it!"
