Chapter 350

"Teacher, teacher..."

Mr. Scott, who was still terrified, pointed at the painting Xia De put back into the safe. Professor Kajia shook his head:

"Calm down, Scott. Do you think the work of a folklorist is reading literature in the office? Calm down, oh, Scott, you are a good young man, calm down!"

"Teacher, this, have you seen this kind of thing before?"

"I have seen more terrible things, this is the first time I brought you out to see the world, if you are still willing to learn from me, you will encounter more things sooner or later."

The young scholar showed a terrified expression, Professor Kajia felt a bit disappointed, and said to Xia De:

"This gentleman, looking at your expression, you should not just be..."

"Yes."

Xia De took out the document and shook it in front of Professor Kajia:

"Military Intelligence Service, we are tracking a batch of contraband. I am a special agent of the Sixth Service, and Miss Pulin is... my superior."

This statement is also fine.

Professor Kajia was obviously a person who had seen the world, took the document and looked at it and knew it was true:

"Then it seems that I really encountered big trouble this time. Special agent, what else is in the safe?"

"Land deeds and house deeds, it seems that except for this mansion, most of the houses in this whole lane are Mr. Jude's. There are also some jewelry, banknotes, strange badges and seals."

The professor took the stone mark Xia De took out, looked at it and frowned and thought for a while, suddenly widened his eyes:

"Scarlet Secret Sect!"

"What?"

Xia De asked in surprise, and Mr. Scott, who was still terrified on the side, was also puzzled, but Princess Lei Qianya thought for a while and gave an explanation:

"Scarlet Secret Sect is the ancient name, the contemporary official name is, the evil cult organization that believes in the evil god 【Lord of Scarlet Spiral】."

"Teacher, is Mr. Jude a cultist?"

The young man looked even more panicked. He only thought this was an ordinary academic investigation, and didn't expect to encounter such an exciting thing.

And the professor was much calmer:

"Don't be so panicked, being a folklorist, you can't avoid dealing with this kind of people. Oh, look at this book."

Professor Kajia took the book Xia De had just taken out of the safe from Xia De's hand. The black cover of the book had "Ocean Mysteries" written on it. The whole book was as big as two ordinary letter papers put together, and the thickness exceeded two ordinary red bricks:

"I didn't expect that I could still see this! Now, I suspect that Mr. Jude himself is one of the organizers of the cult. Gentlemen, lady, look at this, this book is a banned book. When I was young, I once assisted the church in research and read the handwritten copy of this book. "Ocean Mysteries" is the symbol of the identity of the hosts of the Scarlet Secret Sect in those years. The book records some very terrible things in ancient languages, even more terrible than that painting, and even ordinary people might go crazy after looking at it."

This kind of statement was a bit like those books that could carry spirit runes. But Xia De didn't go to ask for the book the professor was holding, but took out more letters from the safe.

Most of the letters were written in Delarian common language, a few were in Kassenrick language, and a very few used unknown strange characters. He picked a few letters written in unknown languages and opened them. Those characters shaped like conch shells were obviously not characters used by humans, but Xia De understood them. After scanning a few times, it basically confirmed Professor Kajia's view:

"We must leave quickly. Judging from the content of the letters, this ancient lane is the nest of the cult. The people who disappeared nearby were all caught by them. This time the luck is really bad, it seems that I really caused big trouble."

He grabbed a few letters and stuffed them into his pocket. The professor looked at the book in his hand with some reluctance, but the thing was too big, so he could only give up with pain.

Xia De and Princess Lei Qianya were not very interested in this book. Although it was possible to obtain spirit runes by reading, it was more likely to be polluted by the knowledge of evil gods. Even Xia De, who had the divine residual glow, did not dare to try this kind of thing.

So he could only leave the book and prepare to leave.

"Scott, prepare to smash the window."

The professor said, and pointed his gun at the closed door with Xia De. Because he witnessed the strange painting and suffered mental trauma, the young scholar reacted for a while before picking up a stool and smashing it at the window.

Crack~

Mr. Scott used all his strength, but the glass remained motionless, and the chair in his hand cracked after a huge sound.

The door was finally attracted by the abnormal sound in the room. Xia De patted the professor on the shoulder, handed his normal revolver to him, pushed Mr. Scott away, and punched the window.

Xia De of course didn't want to use his body to fight against the hard glass. Before the fist swung forward, the silver moonlight had already flown out.

Just at this time, the doorknob was turned from the outside, and then the door was pushed open—

Bang! Bang!

The professor shot at the outside with guns in both hands calmly, trying to rush into the door's manservant was hit by his bullet, screamed, and staggered to the floor.

And taking advantage of Mr. Scott's line of sight also being attracted to the door, Princess Lei Qianya walked quickly to Xia De's side, pressed her hand on the glass that had been split into a gap, and pushed gently, and the whole piece of glass shattered into glass slag.

"Run!"

Xia De shouted loudly, and in the dark corridor outside the door, more and more sounds were appearing.

"You go first!"

The professor shouted. While holding guns in both hands, he could also agilely use his thumb to press the hammer of Xia De's revolver.

The manservant who fell to the ground and twitched was clearly hit in the heart, but he didn't die, and even wanted to struggle to stand up. His throat made a rumbling sound, which was actually a language, and he was calling for help. It seems that the manservant was monitoring here in the corridor just now, and ran over first after discovering something was wrong.

"You go first!"

Xia De said to the princess, so the red-haired girl jumped into the heavy rain outside without any scruples through the window.

Bang bang bang~

The professor fired several shots in a row, making the manservant twitching on the ground twitch even more violently. But he still didn't die, the bullet holes on his body were smoking, and his face was like melting, turning toward some ugly and terrible direction:

"Mr. Scott, it's your turn! Jump!"

"But this is the second floor... I understand."

The young scholar was frightened by the scene that suddenly happened in front of him, but seeing that the delicate lady dared to jump off the building, he also jumped down screaming.

"Professor, it's our turn!"

Xia De pulled Professor Kajia over. The professor retreated while shooting calmly, forcing those shadows in the corridor not to enter the range of the door.

The two came to the window, Xia De dropped the frog leg, then pulled the professor and jumped, leaping out of the windowsill directly from the ground. When stepping lightly on the puddle on the road, there was not much water splash under his feet.

He even had the energy to support Professor Kajia's back, allowing the professor to land steadily.

This caused Professor Kajia, who was standing in the rain, to look at his legs in surprise, somewhat doubting why his agility was so good today.

"Run this way! My people are one street away, we will be safe after running out of here!"

Princess Lei Qianya said loudly in the rain. The rain was even heavier than they thought. Now, whether it was gunfire or bomb explosion, don't even think about spreading beyond the range of one street.
