Chapter 2732 Arrest Them!

Faced with a Temple Envoy like Elbera, whose strength far surpassed theirs, De Rossi and Aaron could only pinch their noses and swallow this loss…

Go head‑to‑head against Elbera?

At most they just thought about it in their heads, then immediately tossed that thought out… if they really dared to do that, the consequences would definitely be more than they could bear.

As Temple Envoys of Freemasonry, the two of them counted as being relatively close to Elbera, and were also the people who understood his temperament the best… yet precisely because they understood him, they were all the more unwilling to provoke Elbera lightly.

"Alright, enough about you two…"

Seeing that De Rossi and Aaron both fell silent, Elbera lost interest in flaunting his presence in front of them, and only then drawled, "How's the hunt going? Have you found that person yet?"

"Well… not yet!"

De Rossi answered with an awkward look.

They had led their men here slaughtering their way along for quite some time now… they had almost scoured this entire stretch of coastline, yet still hadn't managed to find any trace of that "murderer," not even the slightest bit of a trail.

However, there was also no intel yet indicating that the "murderer" had successfully escaped, so they could only keep searching here… after all, it was also possible that the murderer knew Freemasonry's forces were hunting him and had deliberately gone to ground.

It was nighttime at the moment, visibility was far from clear; if one chose a suitable hiding spot, it really wasn't easy to uncover them.

But that was just the excuse they fed themselves for comfort, something they didn't dare voice to try to fob Elbera off…

"Not yet?"

Elbera's expression instantly grew overcast, a vicious gleam flashing in his eyes… although Temple Envoys were nominally of the same rank, in reality everything still came down to fists—whoever's strength was more domineering held the higher status within Freemasonry.

The strength of Scorpio Elbera was the most powerful among the twelve Temple Envoys, so naturally his status far surpassed that of the other Envoys…

As for the intel Qin Fang had received, that the Scorpio Sanctuary Messenger was only ranked second, that was because the one ranked first, the Gemini Temple Envoy, was in fact not a single person, but a pair of twins.

One‑on‑one, neither of the two was a match for Elbera; Othello might even be a bit stronger than either of them…

However, what made Gemini so formidable was precisely that heart‑to‑heart connection between twins; when the two joined forces, it absolutely wasn't as simple as one plus one equals two. It was one plus one equals three, equals four, even equals five…

Elbera's individual strength was the greatest, but when facing the combined assault of the Gemini pair he was still slightly inferior… naturally he could only settle for second place, yet anyone with eyes could see that he was in fact the strongest Temple Envoy in Freemasonry.

Precisely because of this, Elbera didn't take De Rossi and Aaron seriously at all. His tone toward them was nothing like addressing colleagues of equal rank, but more like speaking to his own subordinates… and De Rossi and Aaron could only seethe in silence, not daring to talk back.

"Not a single clue?"

Elbera had no interest in chatting idly with De Rossi; what had happened this time was too serious. Not only had it alarmed all the Temple Envoys, it had even disturbed the Mysterious Sovereign of Freemasonry, who hardly ever bothered with such matters.

Moreover, Elbera knew very clearly that in order to prevent the Madman Tribe from throwing a wrench in their plans, the Supreme Master had specifically contacted Chief Ronaldo of the Madman Tribe. The two sides had already reached an agreement, and would give every convenience to Freemasonry's operation…

Yet unexpectedly, even with conditions so favorable for Freemasonry, it was Freemasonry's own people who failed to measure up. No wonder Elbera's expression was so ugly.

"Right now we only have a suspect, but… we still don't have conclusive evidence!"

This time Elbera had come over more like an imperial inspector, and De Rossi could only grit his teeth and speak.

"Speak!"

Although that answer still displeased Elbera, he nonetheless frowned and said.

"According to intel from our embedded lines, before we arrived at this stretch of coastline, two ships landed here… and our investigation shows that the people on those two ships came from the Demon Sect and the Evil Sect, the two overseas branch forces of the Ancient Dragon Nation!"

De Rossi could only lay out the information they had obtained.

"However, the people who disembarked from the ships all seem to be juniors of the Demon Sect and the Sinister Sect, with no particularly outstanding experts among them… so at the moment it's only my suspicion, I have no proof to back it up!"

This was the crux of what De Rossi wanted to say… and of course, also the tricky part.

In the Underground World, the Demon Sect and the Sinister Sect were also extremely formidable; their power was only slightly inferior to that of Freemasonry. In particular, Emperor Xie and Emperor Xue, two of the Four Emperors, made the status of the Demon Sect and the Sinister Sect extraordinarily secure.

And these two major forces were nothing like the Righteous Alliance within Dragon Country's borders; the Demon Sect and the Sinister Sect had always been branded as forces of evil, who stopped at nothing to achieve their aims… like peerless experts with no bottom line—once they no longer cared about face or integrity, they became truly terrifying.

Precisely because of this, although De Rossi suspected them, he didn't dare make a move lightly… if the Demon Sect and the Sinister Sect learned of it, the consequences would be extremely dire. Even as a Supreme Realm Powerhouse and a Temple Envoy of Freemasonry, he couldn't shoulder that kind of blame.

Those people were all juniors of the two sects, the hope of their future. Once you laid hands on them, it was like touching the reverse scale of those two forces; the consequences could easily be imagined… De Rossi might very well end up crippled.

Emperor Xie and Emperor Xue were among the most powerful beings on Earth… within all of Freemasonry, aside from that Mysterious Sovereign, there truly was no one who could contend with such true peak existences. Even Elbera, who boasted of being infinitely close to the Four Emperors, wouldn't be able to win against them.

"Where are they?"

Elbera naturally also understood the reason De Rossi and Aaron were tangled up; she fell silent for a moment, then asked.

"They're in Bellixir Town, a bit over a hundred kilometers away… Our undercover line has been watching them the whole time!"

De Rossi hurriedly answered.

The junior members of the Demonic Gate, Sinister Sect were desperate to get away from here as fast as possible, even leave this country altogether, but it was already very late; they could only get a car and drive more than a hundred kilometers, preparing to leave from there as soon as they could.

However, before they truly got out, they still couldn't escape the tracking of those Freemasonry undercover lines…

"Grab them…"

Elbera suddenly gave the order, firm and decisive.

"What?"

De Rossi was startled, clearly not having expected this. "Lady Elbera, are you sure you want… to have them taken in?"

He had to admit, Elbera really scared him.

He'd been unable to make up his mind, which was why he had been dragging his feet, afraid to act; he hadn't expected Elbera to be so decisive, directly ordering an arrest…

"Grab them!"

Elbera spoke again, utterly straightforward.

"All right then…"

Since Elbera had already said so, De Rossi naturally wouldn't refuse and could only agree helplessly… Right after, he sent word to the Freemasonry undercover experts who were tailing those junior Demonic Gate, Sinister Sect members, telling them to capture everyone as quickly as possible.

Even though this wasn't Freemasonry turf, the Madman Tribe had already agreed to grant them considerable latitude, so… even if things over there got a bit noisy, it wouldn't cause any real trouble.

Freemasonry had many experts, and Temple Executors were all Great Grandmaster Level…

Having them move to capture a bunch of youngsters from the Demonic Gate, Sinister Sect whose strongest were only Great Grandmaster Level and most merely Grandmaster Level really wasn't all that difficult… As long as nothing unexpected happened, the fight should end very quickly.

All of this, Qin Fang, the one who had set everything in motion, was completely oblivious to.

Right now, he had already been taken back to Androxian's turf… To be precise, it was a city several dozen kilometers from the coast; this was Androxian's residence, and also one of the Madman Tribe's branch bases.

"I've got one good news and one bad news. Which do you want first?"

They had barely just returned; they hadn't even had time to settle Qin Fang down when Granado spoke, his expression extremely odd. Most of his gaze was on Androxian, though some of it landed on Qin Fang.

"Bad news…"

Androxian answered carelessly, as if he wasn't all that worried.

"Babos is here…"

Granado spoke with a strange look on his face.

Sure enough, Androxian's expression changed at once, turning very ugly as he cursed irritably, "What the hell is that bastard doing here?"

"Still all because of this kid…"

Granado pointed at Qin Fang. "About this brat, I just happened to mention a few words, and I didn't expect Babos to rush over to your place overnight… He's definitely not here just to 'take a look', that's for sure!"

"Forget that for now. What's the good news?"

Androxian merely furrowed his brows; just hearing Babos's name seemed enough for him to guess what was coming, so he didn't say much more, only casually asked about the other piece of news.

"The Wild God Secret Realm is about to open…"

Granado clearly was long used to Androxian's temperament, but he still stated it plainly.

Buzz~~

At hearing that term, Androxian practically sprang to his feet on the spot, then asked, excited, shocked, yet uncertain, "Granado, you're not… not joking?" (To be continued.
