Chapter 71 Dawn Hour!

Edmond woke up half an hour later.

He confirmed it with the two clocks on the wall, the watch on his wrist, and the small electronic watch hidden under the hem of his coat.

These are the habits he once developed.

Obviously, once a habit is formed, it is difficult to change.

Rubbing his swollen temples, he grabbed the communicator.

"Ester? Esther?"

Edmond shouted directly.

"Senior Edmond, are you awake?"

Aster's surprised voice came from the communicator, which made Edmond slightly relieved.

Esther is fine, proving that there is a lot of room for recovery.

Edmond knew Lawrence well.

Once the backhand arranged by the other party is really activated, there is definitely no possibility of surviving the nearest Esther and others.

"Tell me in detail what happened next."

Edmond unplugged the infusion tube and stood up from the bed, refusing the doctor's inquiries.

He is very aware of the condition of his body.

Weak, but only from exhaustion.

There were no injuries.

However, after standing up, he still stumbled several times.

At this, Edmond gave a wry smile.

It's been a long time since I've been in this state, and I feel really bad right now.

Edmond's heart was full of helplessness.

And Esther, who heard the voice here through the communicator, hurriedly asked:

"Senior Edmond, are you alright?"

"fine."

"tell me,

What happened after I was in a coma. "

"Yes, after you fell into a coma, it happened..."

Esther spoke quickly, but succinctly explained what had just happened.

Accident involving two D-Class personnel.

Set up the traps that are induced by mistake, and then set up the guards...

It's exactly Lawrence's style.

And when he heard that the big lizard seemed to be able to evolve and adapt continuously, Edmond frowned.

The stronger the guard is, the stronger the thing being guarded is naturally.

Moreover, according to Lawrence's behavior, that thing or that existence must be in a state of being suppressed, but it can just keep the guards in check!

Once the guards leave.

That thing or that being will explode into a real catastrophe.

However, with Lawrence's malicious character, naturally it would not be so simple.

What the other party wanted was that after they worked so hard to solve the guards, they found that they had done something wrong, killed the guards by themselves, and released the real 'devil' despair.

What would that thing or that being be?

To be able to hide from the 'Asylum' headquarters, that thing will not be too big, and similarly, under normal conditions, there will be nothing unusual.

Coupled with the choice of 'caretaker' and underground construction, the category narrows again.

Normally, it must be that we can be seen everywhere.

But once it erupts, it is extremely terrifying.

only……

Can such a layout really be done by Lawrence alone?

Edmond knew Lawrence well.

The other party is insidious and cunning, and has a considerable position in the headquarters.

But, that is 'equivalent'.

It's not really covering the sky with one hand.

After all, the other party didn't even enter the council of the organization.

and also!

And most importantly!

Why happens to be 'Angcheng'?

It happened that these were arranged here, and then, such a 'war' just happened?

Is it too much a coincidence?

What else is there that I don't know?

Is it...

Thinking of this, Edmond's eyes narrowed.

He hates to admit it, but when so many doubts arise, only that answer can explain,

However, Edmond did not speak to Estado.

"I'll come right away."

He just said so.

Some things, the more you know, the better.

Especially under the premise that it is very likely to be monitored.

Edmond walked out while looking at the communicator on his waist.

Then, he used the communicator to dial the number of the headquarters.

This isn't the first time he's called.

Before the 'war' broke out, he dialed through.

One is that the situation exceeded their expectations.

Second, it is natural to ask for reinforcements.

"I'm Vayne."

A stern female voice came, and as long as you heard this voice, an impersonal, stereotyped middle-aged woman with high power, sharp eyes, combed hair, and glasses would appear in your mind involuntarily. .

"I'm Edmond."

"The battle situation exceeded our expectations, and the attack of the 'Temple' was contained by the 'Night Owl Court'."

"Moreover, 'Hydra' has opened underground shelters to provide shelter for civilians."

Edmond tells the truth.

"Um."

"anything else?"

The other side of the communicator seemed to be asking ordinary questions.

But it fell into Edmond's ears at this time, but his heart froze.

and also……

Sure enough, does the headquarters know?

And the time when the communicator just picked up, almost instantly... Vayne is waiting for my news!

Edmond, who made a quick judgment, immediately narrowed his eyes.

Vayne is a hostile force representing Lawrence?

Or the infighting of the same force?

The infighting of the same forces, Eddmond should not know too much.

The 'shelter' is no exception.

Of course, the 'infighting' this time may be different.

Because there are some other existences in it.

The existence that pulls one hair and moves the whole body: the old man who created a new century with one punch of 'peace'.

Arras' grandfather!

The information about the other party in Ang City, the headquarters of the 'Asylum' should know.

Therefore, this series of arrangements appeared.

Otherwise, there is no explanation at all.

Is it a trial?

Eddmond thought to himself, and his eyes returned to normal in an instant.

"Under the Angcheng base, I found Lawrence's 'back hand'!"

"It is temporarily impossible to specifically judge the danger, but according to the 'abnormality' of the current contact, the potential danger should be extremely high!"

"The 'Mask Man' is helping us fight the 'abnormal'."

Edmond said truthfully.

"clear."

"Reinforcements will arrive soon."

"Please hold on."

Vayne ended the call after speaking.

Edmond picked up the communicator again, this time it was not Esther, but Percy.

"How is Percy?"

Edmond asked.

"We all went into the underground shelter and everything was fine."

Percy replied.

"Ah That's good."

"Don't worry, everything will pass."

"All of us will gather around the table again and tell Danvers for me that I look forward to her cooking."

Edmond reminded Percy as if he was caring normally.

Without any extra words, he hung up the communicator.

Hope Percy can make it in time!

Edmond thought silently in his heart, and after putting the communicator on his waist, he nodded to Clark and Lites who were carrying a large number of heavy weapons, special weapons, ammunition, and two reserve mobile teams.

"This time we will definitely be able to kill that big lizard."

Litus said fiercely.

He already knew what was going on underground through the communicator.

Although his people did not die in the true sense, the kind of thrill made the vice-captain feel frightened.

And Liszt didn't have any good feelings for the big lizard that made him almost lose his subordinates.

"Um."

Edmond did not deny it.

Clark led the way without saying a word.

The group quickly entered the emergency passage and went underground.

After finishing the call, Passy, ​​who was holding the communicator, looked solemn.

Before the outbreak of the ‘war’, Edmond had made an agreement with her that if something happened, he would contact her and remind her with words of exhortation and concern.

So, the real answer lies in the words just now.

Danvers was mentioned, but Danvers was right there with me.

So, certainly not Danvers himself,

Cooking?

Anyone who has tasted Danvers cooking?

Jason didn't.

The rest have tasted it, but Edmond told us, that's when he was there.

that time……

Arras is not here!

Is Arras in danger? !

Passy quickly guessed what Edmond wanted to convey.

Without hesitation, she immediately walked to the 'Hydra' member beside her.

"Ms. Percy."

The members of 'Hydra' responded respectfully.

The Percy in front of him, including the child Stark in his belly, has long been regarded as his own by the 'Hydra'.

And, it's still a high level.

"Arras is in danger!"

"You must remind her!"

"It should be a targeted trap!"

Passy said.

"clear!"

The members of 'Hydra' nodded, turned around and started reporting upwards.

Layer by layer, he was soon contacted by Arras who was fighting.

At this time, Arras had just punched an 'abnormal' composed of rocks.

"Danger?"

Alas was startled, not because of this news.

But because, in front of her, a group of people appeared.

This was a team of six fully armed and covering their faces, but their aura was very strong. As soon as they appeared, they surrounded Arras.

"Ms. Arras, we have no ill will."

"We just wanted to learn something about you..."

boom!

It sounded like a shotgun shot.

That was the sound of Arras waving his fist.

She doesn't trust each other.

Just like what Jason said: When you encounter an enemy, the first strike is stronger!

The tumbling airflow slammed into the person in front, causing the other party's words to come to an abrupt end.

But what was really scary was Arras' fist.

Because of the speed, it brought layers of phantom fists.

Originally, six people were supposed to surround Arras, but under such dense fists, it was as if they were surrounded by Arras.

"Automatic rifle. Burst!"

"Ola Ora Ora Ora!"

Alas shouted, his fists getting faster and stronger.

On the roof in the distance, a sniper finished the final adjustment.

He was going to target Arras.

Before the action, they made a lot of plans and also had their own task assignments.

And he?

It's the one who 'makes up for mistakes'.

I didn't turn off the scope for the first time, and I didn't even look at the target.

Breathe, breathe.

As a good sniper, the opponent adjusts himself.

Then

Click.

The sound of a broken neck sounded.

"Really."

"I hate you people hiding by the side the most."

"He is a hero who saves the city, how can he be assassinated by a dagger in the shadow?"

"Delay me from playing games."

Rethes muttered in a low voice.

Then, he looked up to another place.

The gray-haired Seacott waved at him from the second sniper point not far away, indicating that everything was fine.

When the two met downstairs, Kuya, who had dealt with the third sniping point, still had obvious anger on his face.

"What is the 'shelter' doing?"

"It's fine without reinforcements, why do you still want to attack your own people?"

Kuya said angrily.

"It's not what the 'shelter' is doing, but what some people in the 'shelter' are doing!"

"It's not just a 'shelter' in fact, we..."

"Cough cough!"

"Let's leave now."

"It's not safe here."

Seacott interrupted Rheasus.

This gray-haired member of the "Holy Snake Society" didn't want Kuya to know too much about the dark ghosts, although these things have always existed.

Rethes rolled his eyes.

But didn't say much.

He, miss his game console.

It's better to go back quickly, to save yourself from staying here and to think about those troublesome things.

The three walked forward quickly, looking at the surrounding ruins, Kuya couldn't help asking.

"You said that 'Sharp Claw' 13 will be fine, right?"

She hasn't seen Claw13 since her last 'date'.

And now the main battlefield of Ang City, facing those anomalies is the 'Night Owl Court'.

She was very worried.

"Do not worry."

"You're not..."

"Cough cough."

"'Sharp Claw' 13 is very powerful, don't worry."

"We can all handle it. He is much stronger than me, so naturally don't worry."

Rasius interrupted Seacott with a few coughs.

Now he and Seacott have confirmed that the 'masked man' should be Sharp Claw.no13.

Director Harrow should know too.

But Harrow didn't tell Kuya, obviously he had some ideas.

They don't talk too much.

Even for a quiet life now.

After all, Harrow has far more say over his daughter than they do.

I just hope that Kuya doesn't find any clues.

Rethes looked forward to it.

In fact, mentioning Jason, praising Jason, is too easy to distract Kuya.

"of course!"

Kuya raised his head and strode forward.

What a lie!

Rasius and Seacott looked at each other, exchanging messages.

And soon, the gray-haired Seacott was praying in a low voice.

"Hopefully the club is not destroyed."

"Hope the ladies I know are safe."

"Hope...everything will pass!"

Rasius glanced at his partner and said nothing.

Everything will pass!

After all, this is the city of Ang that has been guarded by the Night Owl Court for thousands of years.

There must be no problem!

He was convinced.

...

Click, click!

In the sound of the elevator descending rapidly, Edmond has gradually adapted to the weakness.

He doesn't have super resilience.

Just adapt.

Fortunately, so far, he has adapted well.

Hopefully that will be the case for a while!

Ding!

The elevator reached the floor and the moment the elevator door opened, Edmond heard it.

‘You not only eat my flesh, you insult my IQ! ’

'I want you to die without a burial! ’

Without any hesitation, Edmond stopped.

But, it's too late.

Just as his voice fell.

Squeak, squeak.

A toothless sound suddenly sounded.

The image of a door being pushed open appeared in everyone's mind.

It is a double door, old and slightly tattered, made of solid wood. The door frame and the lower half of the two doors are made of the same color wood. After the upper half of the door is decorated with a square seal, it is a square. The square wooden lattice should be inlaid with colorful glass, but at this time, it is gray and white.

It's not just the glass that's grey and white.

Even the double door was grey.

It's like a black and white TV screen.

And now the big lizard is standing in front of the door.

It pushed open the double door with force.

Then, it teleported away again.

And behind the door...

Groups of ferocious monsters appeared.

They seem to be carved out of a mold, 1.8 meters high, with vague human shapes, and the whole body is pitch black.

As soon as they appeared, they swarmed towards the nearest Jason.

Facing the tide-like monster, Jason took a deep breath, and he felt the activation of some kind of power in his body.

The emergence of this force, there is only one possibility

Dawn!
