In the secret chamber.
Chung Shen-soo released his spirituality and enveloped the ritual materials.
An inexplicable barrier appeared. He lit a candle and drew a six-pointed star symbol on the ground.
There were strange rune carvings in every corner of the six-pointed star.
"With the sacrifice of metal, I pray to communicate with the past …"
"With the silver chain, I form a contract with the past …"
"With the bronze medal, I swear that I will offer sacrifices for this!"
His spiritual perception spread and sprinkled gold powder, causing the candle flame to suddenly soar and overflow with a burst of light.
Immediately after, he used the silver chain and the bronze medal and began the sacrifice.
As for the sacrifices?
Naturally, they were ancient books that the secret keeper liked the most. The more historical the better.
"With knowledge of equivalent value as the sacrifice, I exchange for the phantom of history!"
Finally, Chung Shen-soo chanted loudly.
His spiritual perception spread, and a fog of history appeared before his eyes.
Suddenly, the fog dispersed, and he saw an office.
Inside the office, a young man found another guy dressed as a federal agent and discussed some secret matters.
Before leaving, he stuffed a thick envelope into the other party's hand.
Chung Shen-soo actually knew this young man.
"It's you, O 'Neal!"
He chuckled and canceled the ritual, returning everything in the dark secret chamber to normal.
"Divining the past is indeed much easier than predicting the future. After all, the past can't be changed, but there will always be traces left behind … and the future has infinite possibilities!"
Chung Shen-soo walked out of the secret chamber and saw Scarface, who had been waiting for him.
It seemed that he was ready to get Chung Shen-soo's name at any time and get rid of him.
It had to be said that with Scarface and his subordinates' gun kata, coupled with all kinds of newly developed spirit wines, O 'Neal, a mere Excellency, would probably only be able to die.
Of course, the other party seemed to have some background.
"O 'Neal … Alice's senior, the chief of the Light of Annihilation School!"
Chung Shen-soo said slowly.
Scarface's eyes revealed a bloodthirsty light. "He's also the son of a city councilor, but we can kill that councilor's family tonight, even if they're from the Light of Annihilation School."
"Don't be so violent …"
Chung Shen-soo sighed. "I will talk to him. I believe O 'Neal will soon realize his mistake and become our friend."
The scar-faced man trusted his boss's persuasive ability.
This was how he had convinced Jamu back then.
…
At night, the Whisperer No. 2 Bar was open for business as usual.
Chung Shen-soo stood behind the bar counter, dressed as a bartender. In his hands was a flask, a mixing glass, and a measuring device. He made himself a martini.
The triangular wine glass was overflowing with color, and there was a slice of lemon hanging on the edge.
He held the wine glass in his hand and took a sip, a satisfied expression on his face.
At this time, a young man and woman walked in. It was O 'Neal and Alice.
Alice was wearing a fox fur coat and had a lazy expression on her face. "Please give me a cup of any of the twelve zodiac signs!"
O 'Neal, on the other hand, took Alice's woman's handbag and coat in a very gentlemanly manner. He sat on the side with a smile, looking like a well-mannered gentleman no matter how one looked at him.
If Chung Shen-soo hadn't secretly confirmed through a ceremony that he was the mastermind behind the scenes, even the scar-faced man wouldn't have believed that this gentle and refined man was the one behind the bar.
But I can't say that. The underground bar has always been a black industry. It's only natural that it would be attacked …
Chung Shen-soo thought about it and replied with a smile, "Of course. How about a Bloody Mary?"
As he spoke, he wantonly poured different kinds of alcohol into a cocktail that was as red as blood, and brought it in front of Alice.
"Not bad, I like this …"
Alice's eyes lit up. She took a sip of the wine and immediately narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.
O 'Neal, on the other hand, looked at Alice very gently. His performance was impeccable. Only Chung Shen-soo could see a trace of jealousy hidden very well in his eyes.
"Alice, I suddenly thought of something. There seemed to be some errors in the last step of your handling of the experiment …"
O 'Neal suddenly thought of something and said to Alice.
Alice exclaimed and quickly turned to Chung Shen-soo. "Sorry … I suddenly remembered that there's something I haven't done. I'll leave first."
She grabbed her coat and handbag and left the bar in a hurry.
O 'Neal adjusted his clothes and sat in Alice's seat. His expression suddenly had an additional temperament of a superior. He knocked on the table. "Give me a drink, bartender!"
He controlled his tone and fully showed his calm temperament. His whole body was filled with the superiority of the upper class.
Chung Shen-soo did not make a move. He just smiled and said, "That mistake, you discovered it long ago, but you didn't remind her. You wanted to wait for Alice to make a mistake before you corrected her to gain favor, right?"
O 'Neal's face seemed to have been punched. He momentarily lost his composure, but he immediately recovered. "Yes, you made me lose an opportunity. I want to tell you, Levi Mojito, if you still want to continue to open a bar here and not go to prison, you'd better stay away from Alice!"
As he spoke, Scarface next to him had already picked up a glass bottle in anger.
But O 'Neal was just disdainful. As a mysterious man, how could he be ambushed by a mortal?
Bang!
The next moment, a glass bottle exploded behind his head.
O 'Neal's face was full of astonishment. Blood mixed with wine slid down his cheeks. He fell dizzily, revealing a slightly chubby young man behind him. He said to Chung Shen-soo with a fawning expression, "Boss, do you still remember me?"
"Gross? How did you find this place? "
Chung Shen-soo was slightly surprised.
"The Three-eyed Feathered Serpent is a very unique bloodline, one of the Five Rings. Only this school has it. And the only inheritance of the Five Rings is here, so it's not difficult. "
Gross replied very respectfully, "It just takes a little time to come here. For this reason, I even applied to the family to use that door. I can't say much about that door. In short … I found your school, and an apprentice named Jason told me that you might be here, so I came here. I came here specifically to thank you. "
Gross bowed deeply, without the slightest arrogance of an "upgraded person".
After all, a "Perfectionist" was definitely considered a giant in the mysterious world. Even the Nightingale family had to treat him seriously.
"You … How dare you …"
At this time, O 'Neal also got up, his face full of anger. There was no trace of his previous demeanor.
After all, it was difficult for anyone to maintain so-called demeanor after being smashed with a glass bottle, with glass shards and blood all over their faces.
"What are you trying to say, threaten me?"
Gross turned around, his tone suddenly becoming gloomy. "Before you speak, look at this first!"
He showed the Nightingale badge in his hand and laughed arrogantly. "I am the second young master of the Nightingale family, the genius Gross! Alright, now you can tell me your background … "
O 'Neal's throat was immediately blocked.
His father was just a city councilor, and the federal government was actually controlled by the Sage Council and many corporations together.
The name of the Nightingale financial group was well-known even to him.
If his father knew that he had offended the heir of such a financial group, he would probably be ordered to apologize, right?
As for the chief of the Light of Annihilation?
The Nightingale family's influence in the mysterious world would only be stronger than his own school!
Even if it was just individual strength, to be able to silently attack him and use spirituality to suppress his counterattack, making him such a fool of himself meant that the other party had already reached the level of an "upgraded person"!
In comparison, O 'Neal felt that he was just trash!
His mentor only thought that in another five years, he might have the possibility of charging into the Crimson River.
At this time, various expressions crossed O 'Neal's face, and his body trembled violently.
Reason told him that it was best to apologize, apologize sincerely, and obtain the other party's understanding.
However, his anger was almost about to annihilate everything.
At this moment, O 'Neal, who often used his family background to bully others, finally knew what it felt like to be bullied.
"I can see that you've offended my boss …"
Gross' eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled as he said malicious words. "If you can't obtain my boss' understanding, you can imagine the consequences yourself …"
