The car drove to the "Street of Silence" downstairs of the Wall Street Explorer Center.
Carlos and Lehman's cars, as well as Wendy and her "baby" had already arrived and were nowhere to be found at this time.
The street outside the Explorer Center is called "Silent Street". Due to the influence of continuous magic, it is difficult for non-explorers to "discover" the existence of this street. Even on the map drawn by the New York City Urban Planning Bureau, There is no name for this street.
As long as you walk into this street, you have entered the prosperous and secretive world of explorers. However, passers-by will bypass this street under mysterious circumstances. This is a thoughtful protection set up by the Explorers to protect the fragile worldview of ordinary citizens.
Across the street, people outside the street walked by in a hurry. They could not see the masked explorers moving in the silent street.
Of course, it doesn't matter if explorers and ordinary citizens meet by chance. After all, the existence of the explorer world is an undisclosed secret of the civilized world.
After Sean drove the Ford sedan with the Explorer Society logo into the Street of Silence, it attracted a lot of attention.
Because it is impossible to conceal an event of the level of "Angel Returns" in the industry, and the occurrence of Enzhao, as well as the direction of the car's return and its slightly embarrassing appearance, it is difficult not to make professional explorers think about it.
People on the street stopped and looked directly at the car driven by Sean, slowly stopping at the downstairs of the Explorer Center.
"This is the team that solved the Angel Return-level incident!" Although King-level explorers are not that difficult to see, people in the industry want to see with their own eyes the team that completed such a difficult task.
Downstairs at the Explorer Center, Sean turned off the engine and got out of the car, and Moonlight led Jasmine out of the car in a gentlemanly manner.
When Jasmine wasn't paying attention, Sean put Wilson's body in a black leather handbag in the car.
When Sean did this, he didn't notice the eyes around him. He just handed the car key to the young parking attendant who stood aside and looked at Sean with awe.
"The mask is the 'Unknown Man'? Are there any trainees in this team?!" Someone saw Sean whispering to his colleagues from a distance after getting off the bus, and his tone of voice unconsciously increased due to shock.
"A court musician, a virgin girl of dawn, and an unknown person? This kind of team may even be in danger for Jack-level missions..." Someone's mask couldn't hide the shake of his world view, "After they 'drawn the grand prize' , actually solved the angel’s return incident?!”
"Win the jackpot" is a slang term in the industry, which refers to an event that has been misjudged as a level. For example, Sean and the others went to Levin Town as a Jack-level event this time, only to find out during the incident that it was a King event. Events that are risky to resolve at all levels.
As Sean walked towards the entrance of the Explorer Center, he suddenly noticed that the surrounding atmosphere was a little strange - it was much quieter than usual. He turned around and looked, only to find that almost everyone stopped and looked at him.
While Sean was still wondering, some explorers on the street whistled, and some even applauded sincerely.
Sean and the three of them had torn clothes and were covered in dust and blood. They were not exactly beautiful, but they walked into the building amidst increasingly intense cheers and applause.
There was a group of people standing in the usually bustling hall. "Dream Stealing Professor" Lehman and "Thug" Carlos were among this group of people, but "Mother" Wendy was not there - she did not seem to be from the Explorers Association.
A tall woman with glasses wearing a gold chain and her hair in a bun looked back at Lehman, who nodded slightly. The woman turned her face and said, "Due to the special situation, you need to report the mission immediately. If there is medical or Please inform the staff if you need meals, etc., and we will provide them during the reporting period.”
The woman nodded - Sean could feel that this was her most humane and polite way of expressing herself.
The reports seemed to be conducted separately. When Moonlight and Jasmine were taken away by staff wearing uniform "First Executor" brass masks, Sean handed the black handbag in his hand to a staff member and solemnly said: "This They are the bones of the 'pious soldiers' who went with us..."
The bespectacled woman nodded: "I understand, we will handle it properly."
——
Sean was taken alone to an office on a high floor. This office has no windows and only slightly dim lighting.
Because he had just experienced an overly exciting incident, his mouth was a little bitter at the moment. He refused the dinner provided by the association and just drank a glass of water on the table in small sips.
He was a little nervous at the moment. His nervousness came from two aspects: First, he didn't know whether this "big prize" was planned by the organization that kidnapped Aaliya. If so, then the association would not be safe, even if Just this kind of separate report made him feel insecure.
Second, he now knows the candlestick-shaped symbol deep in the soul, which is called the "divine root" in the angel's knowledge.
The root of God... Just by hearing the name of this thing, you can roughly guess its function. "Could it take root in the future and become something like a "tree of life" that can give its owner divinity? "
With insufficient reserves of mystical knowledge, Sean could only guess its possible utility and its preciousness based on its name and Egwin's state when he saw the "divine root".
"If it is something that even Egwen covets, then I must keep it a secret, not even to mention it to Moonlight." Sean thought of the "Guard of the Kingdom of God" who used ectoplasm to check himself, "After all, one of the most important people in the explorer industry is The biggest risks come from peers!
"Therefore, I have to find a way to conceal the existence of Shengen in the report later, but..." Sean picked up the cup and took a sip of water, feeling a little tangled in his heart, "However, through Professor Lehman, they should Do you know that I used some method to bite back Egwin's soul, causing him to suffer tremendous pain for a period of time...
"I have to find a way..." Sean put down the cup and closed his eyes to calm down, "But don't panic too much. My function is as a reporter. I have the opportunity to take the initiative in the conversation..."
Click, Sean was still meditating with his eyes closed, and the door opened.
The two people walked into the room, and in the dim light, Sean could see their masks clearly. One person was wearing a gray plaid suit and a black tie. He had some white hair on his temples. He should be around forty-five years old. The mask he is wearing is the image of a young man with a laurel wreath on his head, eyes closed, and blood on his face - the "Martyr of Truth". The material seems to be ivory, so the other person is a Queen-level person with excellent insight and investigative abilities. "Function" may be a scholar, a lawyer, or a prosecutor in daily life...
Sean felt a little bitter in his heart: if only ordinary executors, or people with limited investigative capabilities were conducting reports and inquiries, the possibility of concealing secrets would be greater.
"However, the plan is still the same." He had already begun to simulate various possibilities of the conversation in his mind, which was the talent of the reporter.
