Book of the Otherworld

Chapter 252 Being Targeted
"Also, you can call backup now, after all, someone has to clean up the scene," Arthur said, and suddenly smiled at Anna Sunshine, "Now please give me a kiss."

Anna was shocked when she heard this, "What kiss?"

"Don't you know? In the final battle, the female lead will kiss the male lead, so that the male lead will be invincible. This is how Hollywood movies do it." Arthur said half-jokingly.

Anna was speechless for a while, and at the same time her face was slightly flushed, "We are not making a movie right now, hurry up and go in."

"Are you really not going to give me a kiss?" Arthur shook his head helplessly, "Okay, but if I don't succeed, it will be your fault." After speaking, he turned and walked towards the old castle .

Anna nervously looked at the satellite image and the image from the drone. It was quiet in the castle. This is not a normal phenomenon. She felt a little nervous, and suddenly regretted not kissing Arthur.

She had applied for backup a few minutes ago, and all she could do now was wait.

She wanted to ask what was going on, but she was afraid of disturbing Arthur's actions, so she waited for a while in the silent and terrifying car. Just when Anna thought it was going to be so quiet forever, suddenly, the message in the communicator But Arthur's voice sounded, "Anna, I think you can come in, there is no danger here."

Arthur's voice was very calm, but Anna heard a hint of excitement from it.

"What?" Anna was taken aback, "So fast?" And she didn't hear any gunshots at all, but relying on her trust in her teammates, Anna got out of the car and ran towards the castle with her handbag , walking all the way in, she saw corpses all over the place, not a single living person, and these corpses pretended to be miserable, not like they died in a gun battle at all. The more Anna walked, the more frightened she was. What happened here? ?
Of course, she would not naively think that these were what Arthur did. Obviously, there was an extremely fierce battle here before. A few minutes later, she finally came to the core of the castle, and she saw a huge monster. The body, even though it was dead, still made her walk around it cautiously due to its astonishing size.

Going all the way to the deepest part of the castle, she finally saw Arthur, who was standing in front of a pool of fuzzy flesh and blood, checking something.

At first, Anna was a little curious about what that lump of stuff was, but when Anna got close enough to finally see the truth of that stuff, she couldn't help feeling sick and vomited violently.

"Are you okay?" Arthur asked.

"I'm fine. What happened here? Could it be you who did it?"

"Of course not, I'm not so destructive," Arthur said mockingly, "It seems that someone has already taken a step ahead of us, but I found something very interesting."

Anna finally calmed down. After all, she is a well-trained agent. Although she doesn't have much actual combat experience, she still has the psychological quality she should have.

"What did you find?" She came over while wiping her mouth.

Arthur pointed to a very obvious square mark on the corpse, "Look here, it is obvious that this man is holding something in his hand, he was squeezed to death by a huge force, but The thing in his hand must be so strong that it left such a mark on his skin, look at the mark on the skin, can you see what pattern it is?"

Anna lowered her head and squatted down. When she saw the pattern clearly, a hint of surprise appeared on her face. It was indeed a ball-shaped indentation, which looked like an eye in terms of shape.

"It looks like an eye."

"That's right, it's just one eye." Arthur glanced at her with piercing eyes, and said excitedly.

Seeing that Anna was still confused, she had no choice but to explain, "If my guess is correct, this person is holding the legendary Book of Otherworlds."

Anna couldn't help being taken aback when she heard it, "The Book of Other Worlds? I thought it was just a legend."

Of course she understands the meaning of the two. As a purifier, she has accepted a concept since the day she joined the job. Her task is to protect the world from countless evil and terrible people, and the most evil It was the summoner, but what she didn't expect was that she would have to face this terrible enemy so early.

After she joined the Purifier, she did hear some content related to the Summoner and the Book of Other Worlds, but these contents were not as detailed and accurate as the information on other cult organizations or superpower organizations inside the Purifier, but more It's like some kind of speculation and conjecture. She originally thought that those were just legends or exaggerated propaganda, which were used to defraud the participating countries of the Purifiers of funds.

"It's not a legend. Summoners do exist. It's just that every summoner is very mysterious. Whenever we feel that we have found some clues, these people either disappear or die, but they do exist. We always Some clues can be found, but they are always unable to grasp their real details, as if an invisible hand is covering them, but this time it is different."

Arthur pointed at the printed words excitedly, "The one who killed all these people was a summoner. He must have come here to snatch the Book of Other Worlds. Of course, it is also possible that the deceased was a summoner, and the person who killed him was In order to snatch the Book of Other Worlds, but it is actually the same, because once this person obtains the Book of Other Worlds, it becomes a summoner. This person is obviously very powerful. He should use magic and other abilities. See Those footprints on the ground, there should be two people who came, they didn’t sneak in secretly, but came in directly from the main entrance, these people tried their best to resist, but they were slaughtered one-sidedly without any suspense.”

Anna broke out in a cold sweat suddenly. The thought of passing by two summoners just now made her feel scared. If she had come a few minutes earlier, there might have been two more corpses here.

"Now we have caught a big fish." Arthur said excitedly. At this time, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside, but it was the backup team that finally arrived.

A bald-headed black man wearing a black leather windbreaker rushed in, followed by a whole team of commandos in black combat uniforms. He was about forty years old, and he looked dignified. He was used to giving orders, and he was in the top position. the kind of person.

"Arthur, how many times have I said that when facing an enemy with a certain threat, you must call for support. You are a purifier, not Rambo, and you are not 007. You are my best agent. I don't want to attend your funeral one day." The black man yelled as soon as he entered, looking extremely angry.

Arthur didn't care much about the bald-headed black man's reprimand. He was already used to the minister's yelling.

"Don't worry, minister, I won't die so easily. Let them seal this place, this time we found a big fish, a summoner, and I will definitely catch him." Arthur's eyes flickered The light of confidence.
