The Modern Age of the Mysterious

For explorers, there are some tasks that need to be kept secret.

For example, the "Terrorist Incident in Lewin Township" that has been widely spread in New York City - resulting in the death of more than a dozen townspeople, and hundreds of townspeople who have escaped the control of Aegwyn need to receive psychological treatment...

Since it involves the occurrence of "angel's calling", the divine court requires confidentiality.

Therefore, all the insiders, including Sean, were asked to keep secrets after the mission.

However, Sean does not think that this secrecy system can really hide the situation - the movement of things is too big, almost no one in the Quest Association does not know what happened in Lewin Town, and the daily life of the quest can't be isolated in the Outside the normal society, so the story will definitely spread.

"Since it will spread, it's better for me to write a first-hand report directly as a mysterious scholar." Sean calculated, "Not only can we curb rumors, but also earn royalties...

"Make sure that the core events experienced by some explorers are not involved in the text, and write down the cause and effect of the event from the perspective of an informed bystander..." The manuscript has actually been formed in Sean's mind, and he is also very confident that the association will not be able to know this. The manuscript is from the hands of explorers.

Sean's mind returned to the conversation with Edward: "It's about the last terrorist incident in Lewin Town. However..."Daily News" doesn't seem to accept manuscripts of such mysterious events."

Edward shook his head: "We also have reports involving evil, but it is really difficult to publish this kind of manuscript that belongs to the mysterious world on the daily news.

"But... I know the editor-in-chief of a magazine, and she definitely likes this type of manuscript."

Sean relaxed and leaned on the back of the chair: "Which magazine?"

Edward smiled: "The New Testament Horror Stories - you must have heard of it."

Sean's brows were relieved - he casually flipped through this magazine that seemed to sell well at the newsstand, which recorded the back stories of all the recent "evil events" in New York City.

Although it sounds like a fictional literature magazine, after Sean read several "stories" with scrutiny, he was surprised to find that this magazine seems to be a fictional literature about real evil events. came out.

"New Testament Horror Stories" magazine may indeed have some mysterious news channels - these works based on real writing, most likely from local explorers.

Edward took the fish food to the cuboid fish tank by the window, and smashed the fish food into the water with his stubby fingers: "Uh... but their magazine is a bit strange. The editors all use pseudonyms and only accept letters for submissions..."

With that said, Edward walked to the desk, flipped through a small card, and handed it to Sean.

It was a pure black business card, and it was written in strange white fonts:

"New Testament Horror Stories" magazine, editor-in-chief: Ms. Ling Sifeng. Below the name is the address of the submission.

Edward said: "After the manuscript is delivered, they will reply to you whether it is published or not."

In order to receive a reply, Sean completed the manuscript at the Daily News, and with Edward's approval, the mailing address directly written on the letter was the office of the Daily News.

After doing this, Sean found Edward alone again.

After experiencing the "Gone Couple" report, Sean felt that he and the stern but passionate editor-in-chief were already sailors on a boat.

So he decided to directly ask the middle-aged man who knew a lot of past events: "Edward, have you heard of the Judas Ring?"

Edward, who was writing something on the paper with a pen, stopped his hand. He slowly raised his head. His eyes were a little surprised, then replaced by a serious expression. After a moment - he made a "silent gesture" with some struggle.

Edward knew about the Judas ring, and he also knew the ban!

"Sean, I can probably guess that there may be a very troublesome situation behind Lingmei's disappearance..." Edward looked at Sean with a serious expression, "I also really want to provide more convenience for your investigation, but I To run a newspaper, you can't..." He explained, taking out a small piece of paper and writing as softly as possible.

After refusing to discuss Judas Ring's words, he also finished writing the piece of paper. Edward gently pushed the piece of paper to the table closer to Sean.

Sean picked it up, with a sentence on it: "Don't ask anyone again - about what you ask, not only will no one tell you, but it will lead to disaster. However, in the old books and newspapers there may be the truth."

Through the agate-framed glasses, Edward's eyes shone with seriousness.

Under Edward's gaze, Sean nodded slowly.

Shawn walked out of the editor-in-chief and saw a somewhat familiar figure walking into the noisy public office from a distance.

The man was wearing a dark green suede suit and a dark red silk tie. His hair was shiny and brushed back. Compared to the last time he saw him, the freckled boy seemed to have grown taller, and his temperament had completely changed.

The previous Jim Cain was just a timid intern who loved to cry. At first sight this time, Sean can feel that he is a lot more confident, and his body language and expressions are even a little aggressive.

"Lucky Jimmy." Next to Sean, a newspaper staff member was whispering to a colleague next to him, "He witnessed the baby-faced robbery and appeared at the murder scene on Bloody Valentine's Day...

"He wrote the two big news articles that shocked New Zealand. He went from being a crybaby in the newspaper office to a heartthrob in the media world..."

In the distance, the staff of the newspaper office greeted Jimmy with enthusiasm. Jimmy looked confident, grinning white teeth in response—as if he was born that way.

"I'm about the same age as my nephew, and I heard that I will be signed by the newspaper as a staff writer! What a lucky bastard..." The speaker shook his head gently.

Sean took a detour and didn't have the idea to say hello to Jimmy.

After passing by by passing pedestrians, Sean suddenly heard an exaggerated voice behind him: "Oh, Mr. Dickinson!"

Sean turned his head and pretended not to pay attention just now, with a surprised look on his face: "Jimmy, it's you! You look good." Sean found that his face seemed to be covered with powder to hide freckles, and the [ Melinas' double serpent staff, with a small shining black gem set at the tip of the scepter - apparently, he was promoted in the religion of the messenger god.

Jimmy shook Sean's hand quite powerfully, and he no longer had the humility of wanting to ask seniors how to become a big reporter: "Sean, I haven't seen much of your masterpiece recently!"

Sean shrugged: "It's a part-time job after all, I have other things to do."

"You're the most optimistic reporter I used to be." Jimmy patted Sean's arm, "You still have to have more snacks - spend more time, and you can dig out big news."

"Thank you for your advice~www.NovelMTL.com~ Sean tried his best to make his smile look sincere.

He found that Jimmy's eyes revealed a hint of "fanaticism". That was the frenzy that Sean saw in Mark's eyes at the church of the messenger god-obviously, the pollution of [Melinas] faith had affected the poor young man in front of him.

He got what he wanted, but he didn't know the price.

The people next to them didn't pay attention to the reunion of the two anymore, Jimmy leaned closer, lowered his voice and said, "Sean, when you were outside the church, you told me to give up my belief in [Melinas]...

"If I had listened to you, I would have been the dumbest fool in the world.

"Sean, God once favored you, but you held your stubborn ideas and didn't want to accept God's call... What a pity!

"I don't want to say that, but—you're going further and further down the wrong path."

He pointed to the double snake stick badge on his chest: "However, if you can repent and want to achieve greater success in your worldly life, you can realize how lucky you are to be favored by God, remember, [Melinas] ] The door is always open for you..."

Sean lost his patience: "I'm busy, so I might not have time to see your god."

Jimmy's eyes became colder, and the frenzy turned into a dangerous light.

Sean smiled mysteriously and turned away.

Looking at Sean's back, Jimmy showed a look of disgust. Just as he was about to curse this foreigner who was disrespectful to God, a huge sadness suddenly surged in his heart...

His expression twisted, constantly changing between pride and sadness, as if breathing was a little difficult, he pulled the chair next to him and sat down...

"What, what's going on?"
