The speedboat sped through the wide underground waterway, the vile stench that assaulted Kieran's face made him frown but it didn't affect his observation of the surroundings.
Although he couldn't match the underground waterway with the streets on the surface, Kieran still remembered the direction the speedboat was heading towards.
Not letting go of any clues that he could get his hands on was a habit that Kieran mastered.
Wuuu, Wuuu.
The motor of the speedboat echoed in the underground waterway. The searchlight at the front of the speedboat was the only source of light, flashing across the murky water as the speedboat moved forward. The tall man with the mask was steering the speedboat. George was holding the side of the speedboat tightly, curling up into a ball in the dark.
"The speedboat didn't slow down at all after it started moving.
The mastermind isn't just familiar with this place, it definitely isn't the first time he did this.
Which means this mastermind has brought men here more than once.
The construction time for the destination that we're about to reach should be quite some time ago.
Every time there's a storm, guests would be waiting for us, what a … bad personality. "
Kieran was sitting opposite George, holding the railing beside him with a heavy expression.
The strength that the mastermind displayed had exceeded his expectations.
At the same time, Kieran believed there weren't many people who could possess the strength of such an organization.
As for those who had a grudge against him?
The Noroid Church was the only one.
"Could it be Noroid Church?"
Kieran wondered, his eyes unconsciously looking at the man behind him who was steering the speedboat.
The mask was the most common kind, white in color, leaving only a gap for the eyes while the nose and mouth were sealed, causing the man's breath to be heavy. What caught Kieran's attention were the calluses on the man's hands, the back of his fingers, and the back of his fingers.
There was a bulge at the back of the man's waist, and judging from the shape, it should be a gun.
The man's pants were propped up, revealing a belt tied around his waist. Even though the man's calf was covering it, Kieran was sure there was a dagger under it.
Plus the man's silence and meticulous manner, it was easy for Kieran to guess the man's identity.
"A soldier!
"Secret and underground strongholds and soldiers …"
"If Noroid is added to the mix, things will get interesting."
Kieran squinted his eyes and observed his surroundings with a more meticulous gaze.
He knew that if he didn't guess wrong, there would be a big scene waiting for him in a while.
After all, he had just mentioned 'pleasure and excitement'.
Others might not know about using a speedboat in the city's sewers, but Kieran did not feel happy at all.
As for excitement?
If the Taotao that constantly floated past the water counted, then it was really exciting.
Kieran had never seen so many Taotao floating on the surface of the water. They were like lotus leaves floating on the surface of a lake, drifting in groups.
After another turn, the speed of the speedboat plummeted.
The masked man skillfully threw the rope to the railing by the shore. With the help of the faint light, the rope was firmly fastened to the railing.
"Please."
The masked man jumped up to the shore and spoke for the second time, the same words as the first time.
Kieran walked up and George followed behind Kieran in a shaky manner.
The masked man was knocking on the wall in front of him.
Bang, Bang, Bang.
The heavy knocking was rhythmic, it was obviously some kind of signal.
When the sound stopped, the thick concrete wall in front of them was opened from the inside.
Kieran heard the clear hum of the spring turning and the electric current flowing through the wall.
Kieran then saw a room made entirely of metal. Both sides of the room were metal walls, the front was a door, and the roof was filled with a sprinkler.
The heavy smell of disinfectant in the room rushed into Kieran's nose the moment the door was opened.
"Disinfection room?"
Kieran raised a puzzled brow and followed the masked man in. George was slightly hesitant but eventually followed. When the three of them entered the room, the sprinkler above them started to spray the disinfectant.
It was stimulating and suffocating.
A full minute later, the sprinkler stopped and the door in front of Kieran slowly opened up.
"Please come in."
Unlike the rigid voice of the masked man, a soft and weak voice came from the door. Inside the hall, which was decorated in a grand manner and glittered with crystals, a row of ladies in black maid outfits with different things in their hands bowed at Kieran.
Their height was almost the same, their faces were extremely sweet and the most eye-catching part was their eyes, they were bright and pure.
It felt like …
They weren't tainted by the secular world at all.
Kieran glanced over the row of maids and walked in with proper vigilance.
The maids smiled at Kieran's vigilance. Then, the maid at the front quickly walked over and helped Kieran to take off his drenched clothes. The maid with the hairdryer quickly took action and at the same time, two more maids with clothes and shoes walked over and helped Kieran change his clothes.
Another maid then placed a mirror of the same height in front of Kieran.
Inside the mirror, Kieran had changed into a black robe and a pair of leather boots.
For modern people, the outfit should be out of place but on Kieran, it was perfect, as if he was born this way.
The masked man and George weren't as lucky.
Although they were standing there, the maids turned a blind eye to them, as if they didn't exist. However, the voice changed again came from the masked man's modified phone.
"Not bad.
"It's better than I thought."
Then, let us continue. "
Following the words, the maids bowed at Kieran again and went through the small door beside.
A while later, three connected doors were pushed out by the maid who dried Kieran's hair.
"Three doors, one of them was opened just now.
I hope you can find it. "
"Familiar?"
"That's right, it's the game you played when you first appeared in Rain City TV station — I hope to use my own way to confirm whether or not you are as good as you appear to be, a real shaman."
"I'm sure the viewers in front of the TV would like to know, right?"
"I'll give you a minute to confirm, start now."
The voice from the phone sounded again.
"The one in the middle."
Kieran answered without a second thought.
The most obvious change in Constitution was Stamina. Kieran didn't have to exhaust his Stamina like before when he used [Tracking] for a split second.
It allowed Kieran to move with more ease.
"What a surprise!
It really is the one in the middle! "
The masked man's voice didn't sound surprised, but the big screen that hung down from the ceiling was playing the scene of the maid who dried Kieran's hair opening the door in the middle.
Then, the scene changed.
Kieran became Mei Huasheng, who was tied to a pillar.
"This is your reward.
And of course … "
"Punishment!"
The moment the voice subsided, the maid who dried Kieran's hair exploded.
Bang!
Blood and flesh splattered.
Her head rolled to Kieran's feet, the light in her eyes swiftly dimmed, leaving behind the ignorant look that didn't change even in death.
"Now …"
