Ude was carefully walking along the streets of E Block.
The last time he came to Theorate was 30 years ago, when he first took over Sil Sect. However, unlike this time, he was invited to join the Mystic State Expedition organized by Theorate.
It was also because of that event that his entire person had undergone a tremendous change.
Secret techniques!
Secret techniques that could change one's body became his life's pursuit.
However, thirty years had passed, and he had gained very little.
Feeling his body getting older day by day, the despair in Ude's heart grew heavier.
However, at this time, news about Sil Inner Sect came from Theorate. It was a huge blow to Ude, who had been in charge of Sil Sect for 30 years.
Even more so when he knew how the Inner Sect fought, he was eager.
He contacted the Ryde Family and paid them some benefits to seal the deal.
It was very normal for Ude to do so.
Although he was addressed as a master, Sil Sect's way of using external items to fight had determined him to borrow any kind of power.
Even though it would make a lot of people lose face.
"What a complicated path!"
Ude followed the directions in his mind and bypassed an alley, entering a side road of another alley.
It wasn't his memory from 30 years ago, it was the information he sent out, gathered bit by bit and sent back to him.
Similar to the secret hideout he went to this time, it was also set up by his spy.
Of course, it was different from the exposed spy.
This spy was someone else he sent.
Ude knew not to put all his eggs in one basket since he was young.
In the middle of the branch road, Ude stopped in his tracks.
It was a shop facing the street, selling daily necessities and groceries. The owner of the shop was Ude's spy.
Ding Dong!
After sizing up the shop for a while and making sure no one was watching, Ude pushed the door open.
"Hello … Leader?!"
The owner of the shop heard the wind chime and greeted out of instinct, but when he saw it was Ude who came in, he was stunned.
The spy didn't expect the overseer of Sil Sect to show up, but at the next moment, fear flashed over the spy's face.
The unusual expression raised alarms in Ude's heart.
He didn't turn around. Instead, he faced the owner of the grocery store and retreated step by step.
His hands were already gripping his weapon tightly.
"Tsk."
A slight noise came from behind him.
There was a hint of mockery in his voice.
Ude did not care about the meaning behind the voice. The moment the voice rose, he threw the knife and fork in his hand behind him without turning his head.
Although he did not see the person behind him, based on the direction of the sound, Ude was 100% sure that he had hit the target.
Moreover, the knife and fork he threw out were not ordinary goods that could be found anywhere.
Bang!
Before the knife and fork hit its target, it exploded and turned into tiny iron particles, completely enveloping the area behind Ude.
As long as someone stood there, they would definitely hit.
At the same time, an invisible and odorless gas began to fill the grocery store.
A confident smile appeared on Ude's face.
He believed that the other party would not be able to escape.
But in the next moment, the smile froze on his face.
Bang bang bang!
What he heard was the sound of iron pellets hitting a solid wooden door.
A hand was placed on the back of his neck.
Ude immediately gave up resisting.
"What do you want?
As long as I have it, other than my life, you can have it. "
The overseer of Sil Sect said quickly.
Ude chose to live in the face of death.
In order to live, Ude could give up everything.
Dignity?
In Ude's dictionary, there was no dignity in the face of death. Surviving was everything.
Ude heaved a breath of relief when he felt the hand on the back of his neck loosen up a little.
He didn't sense any killing intent from the other party.
Then, there was room for negotiation.
It would be a good start.
"I have enough cash in my backpack, as well as some decent items. If you want them …"
"Just like what Palreynold said, not only are you afraid of death, you have also forgotten the true meaning of Sil Sect."
Just as Ude was trying his best to close the deal, a disdainful voice sounded.
As this voice rang out, the hand on the back of Ude's neck loosened completely.
Ude shivered.
It wasn't because the other party let him go so easily, but because of what the other party said.
Palreynold!
One of the spies he once sent out, a young man he had high hopes for, but following the appearance of Sil Inner Sect, after he got detailed information from the Ryde Family, the young man he thought he knew was shrouded in a layer of mist.
Ude had no idea what kind of person Palreynold was anymore.
Or more precisely, after knowing the identity of Palle Reynold, Ude started to doubt everything.
At that moment, after hearing that name again, Ude did not hesitate. He took a step forward and quickly turned around.
A young man wearing ordinary clothes and a baseball cap appeared in his field of vision.
"Who are you?"
Ude asked in a heavy tone.
"Who am I?
"You can say that I'm your examiner this time."
"Unfortunately, you've failed again."
Oh right, I have to tell you that this is the last time you take a test. Although you were given many chances because of your identity as the overseer of Sil Sect, you didn't seize a single one. "
The young man chuckled and wanted to leave.
Test?
Examiner?
Did I fail again?
Ude, who wasn't stupid, quickly realized what was going on when the thought popped up in his mind.
It was a test from Sil Inner Sect!
But he failed again!
Just like before!
More importantly, this was his last chance and he wouldn't get any more chances in the future!
Ude stood on the spot in a daze.
Ding Dong!
The ringing of the wind chimes woke him up.
"Wait!
"Sir, please wait!"
Ude shouted after he regained his senses.
The young man who opened the door turned around and looked at Ude. It was then that Ude saw the young man clearly with the help of the sunlight outside the door.
Lude!
The name popped up in Ude's mind when he saw the young man's face.
Through the Ryde Family's information network in Theorate, Ude knew about the Index of Eat incident that caused a commotion a while ago.
However, he never thought the male lead of the incident would really be a Sil Inner Sect member.
On top of that, Lude became his examiner.
The Sil Inner Sect was much stronger than he expected!
Ude recalled the Derton Lab's performance during that incident, and he was completely overwhelmed with shock.
Based on all the performances, Derton Lab was obviously a subordinate of the Sil Inner Sect. It wasn't an easy feat to make a lab in Theorate a subordinate, only some big families or sects could do it.
And …
The young man's strength!
He had just come of age but the strength he displayed was comparable to some of the true powerhouses that Ude had seen in the past.
It made Ude, who was already shocked, regret rose in his heart.
Why didn't he pass the test?
Not just this time, but the previous test as well!
Recalling the things that happened in his life, the more Ude thought about it, the more he felt like those things were tests from the Sil Inner Sect, but as expected, he chose the wrong ones.
As for whether the Sil Inner Sect existed or not?
Since Lude could have easily killed him but let him go, Ude completely believed in the existence of the Sil Inner Sect.
The reason why he didn't discover the existence of the Sil Inner Sect after so many years?
It was because the Sil Inner Sect was too secretive and powerful that he couldn't discover it.
Now, after proving how powerful the Sil Inner Sect was, Ude made up his mind: he must join the Sil Inner Sect!
Pak!
Ude knelt down on the ground without a second thought.
"Sir, please allow me to join the Sil Inner Sect.
I know I failed the test, so I don't need an official identity, I just need the identity of an outer sect member. "
Wu Te kowtowed as he spoke.
Bloody Mary curled its lips into a faint grin when it saw Ude kowtow.
It knew that its mission this time was completed.
Ude had completely believed in the existence of the Sil Inner Sect, even if there were some unexpected details, Ude would automatically fill in the gaps.
This was also the reason why Bloody Mary chose to appear as Lude and not Palreynold.
First, Bloody Mary wanted to portray how powerful the Sil Inner Sect was. A single person couldn't possibly be powerful.
Second, Ude was very familiar with Palreynold. Even with the identity of the Sil Inner Sect as a disguise, Bloody Mary was still worried that Ude would notice something, so it was better to use an unfamiliar identity to bluff Ude.
The joy in Bloody Mary's heart didn't affect its performance after that.
It maintained its arrogance and coldness.
"Do you think the Sil Inner Sect is what you think it is?
If begging can get you into the Sil Inner Sect, then the Sil Inner Sect is meaningless!
Really … Hmph, those damn bastards! "
Bloody Mary, who seemed to have something else to say, cursed out loud and dashed out of the store, vanishing into thin air.
Bloody Mary's speed caught Ude off guard.
The overseer of Sil Sect was stunned for a while before he gave chase, but Bloody Mary was nowhere to be found in the alleyway.
Frustration appeared on the overseer's face.
However, Ude quickly thought about how angry Bloody Mary was just now.
"What happened?"
Something that angered the lord of the Sil Inner Sect …
"Perhaps, this is my chance!"
All of a sudden, the overseer of Sil Sect clenched his fist and turned around to the store owner, who was still under the effect of Paralysis Ball.
"Use every means you have to find out what's going to happen later."
The overseer of Sil Sect wiped the store owner's nose with his hand and said.
"Yes, leader."
The owner of the grocery store immediately nodded.
Those who could become spies and hidden agents were all vigilant and smart people. Just like when the Sil Inner Sect appeared before him, he knew the multiple disguises he thought were perfect for Palreynold had been exposed to the Sil Inner Sect.
Palreynold's multiple tests might very well be a test for him.
Unfortunately, similar to his leader, he didn't pass the test.
But there was still a chance!
With this in mind, the grocery store owner started to act at a speed several times faster than usual.
As an excellent hidden agent, he didn't just have a secretive attitude, he also had a huge intelligence network.
This kind of 'intelligence network' was different from the traditional intelligence network. There was no such thing as superior and subordinate, and it was more of a group of people with similar interests and hobbies.
At least, that was how it looked to others.
Soon, a piece of news reached the grocery store owner.
Without daring to delay, the store owner told Ude everything in detail.
"There's a battle outside the garrison?"
The overseer of Sil Sect frowned.
Then, in the next moment, his eyes flashed.
"I see!"
…
Bloody Mary, who was teleported outside the garrison in Palreynold's appearance, appeared outside the garrison after Kieran used the power of the contract.
After sizing up the outer perimeter of the garrison, it looked into the distance.
Under the eyes of the Fire Raven in the sky, a group of fully armed men were lying in ambush.
More precisely, they were waiting there to receive their target.
Of course, Bloody Mary didn't think the person they were waiting for would show up and go against its boss. It didn't think the boss would survive.
One needed to know that its boss wasn't just powerful, he was also vigilant and decisive, something common people didn't have.
Therefore, it obediently obeyed orders every time.
This time was no exception either.
After setting up the formation on the spot, a sudden explosion sounded and Bloody Mary was sent flying away like a charging rhino. Its body flew uncontrollably towards the group of men in ambush.
"There's an ambush?
But do you really think you can defeat me with this kind of trick? "
Bloody Mary adjusted its posture in mid-air and landed firmly on the ground. It glanced over the astonished ambushers around it and chuckled coldly.
Then, under the watchful eyes of the ambushers, Kieran disappeared.
The whole process took less than two seconds.
The ambushers looked at each other, not knowing what happened.
Then, an ear-piercing alarm sounded.
Groups of guards appeared outside the garrison and were running towards the scene.
"Retreat!"
The leader of the ambushers gave the order.
Right away, all the men in ambush started to retreat, but they obviously underestimated the guards' mobility and numbers.
Two minutes later, the group of men in ambush suffered heavy casualties and completely lost their resistance.
Professor Tyrese stood up from his desk after he got the news and walked towards Kieran, who was dozing off.
"The guards caught a group of men who wanted to ambush you, want to have a look?"
Tyrese asked.
"Not interested."
Kieran didn't even open his eyes since he already knew what was going on.
"But the guards managed to get some information about the Sil Inner Sect from the survivors of this group."
Tyrese continued.
The moment his words subsided, Kieran sat up.
"Sil Inner Sect?"
