The Modern Age of the Mysterious

On the day they went to Undercurrent Street, the four members were in the maintenance room of Katherine Company.

Sean retrieved the dagger that had been engraved with the holy pattern of Naling, and twelve custom-made esoteric bullets.

He began the routine pre-mission armed steps again.

The M1920 revolver, which has been calibrated and broken in many times, is still in the gun pocket under the left flank.

Six esoteric bullets were stuffed into the belt on the left side of the belt, and six esoteric bullets with vicious properties were on the right.

Twenty-four ordinary bullets were left, and they were placed in one side pocket along with the loader with magnets.

"You don't need too many ordinary bullets to go to Undercurrent Street." Sean judged this.

Spiritual strength is still the key. This time, Sean prepared twice as much psychic smelling salts than the last Lewin incident, and poured all these aquamarine salt grains full of soul energy into the two smelling salt boxes hanging on the upper chest. Among them - as long as Sean frees one hand and presses the button of the smelling salt box, the small window of the iron box will open, and the smelling salts will drift out.

The first aid carbonated syrup and holy water still have their functions, so Sean still bought three bottles and placed them in their proper places on the tactical harness.

Although Holy Light Bullets are expensive, they are especially useful in Undercurrent Street. Two grenades, adorned with silver patterns on the outside and filled with gunpowder, white phosphorus, magnesium powder and sacred substances, hung on the sides of the belt.

Of course, he didn't forget the only mysterious legacy he had now - the steel lighter with the "Crucifixion" in his inner pocket.

Catherine, who was standing on the side, watched Sean hang these items on the tactical harness and belt one by one, and then began to practice the movements of drawing guns and props with his hands and esoteric substances.

Although it doesn't look very calm and unrestrained, but arming yourself and practicing repeatedly can really calm all the anxiety in Sean's heart. After hearing about Undercurrent Street yesterday, the slight nervousness that I had generated has been completely dissipated in the armed process just now.

Catherine, who looked at Sean, had mixed feelings: she felt that Sean was slightly "overreacting", which is a symptom of many explorers' panic attacks.

But looking at Sean's calm and quiet eyes, she felt a little appreciation for his prudence and stability...

However, deep down, she understood Sean: other explorers may have encountered easy tasks. However, until now, what Sean has encountered is the kind of threat that will never end if he takes one wrong step...

That's why he was so cautious.

On one side, Moonlight smiled and said to Catherine: "He did the same for the last mission, he brought a lot of things, and he was bulging all over."

Moonlight wore work clothes again today, but specially chose a black set and tied a tie, so she didn't look so much like a dock worker.

He put his hands in his pockets, as if nothing was ready. It's a stark contrast to Sean.

Henry in the corner was checking his playing cards and said, "I really appreciate Xiao's safety. Moonlight, what preparations have you made?"

Moonlight stretched out his hands, and his dexterous fingers played a pleasant melody in the air: "I have hands, so I'm ready."

Henry shook his head lightly: he had also heard of this young artist, although he never relied on equipment, he was a strong Jack-class-this is a genius.

Catherine opened her equipment cabinet, and among the four neatly arranged revolvers, she chose a revolver with an ivory handle, carved patterns and a longer barrel. The gun is called "Lady Stern" and is a Class C Mystic Heritage.

Sean stopped drawing his gun and looked at the gun in Catherine's hand: "What's so special about it?"

Catherine checked the appearance of the gun and said, "Pouring spiritual power into it will improve the accuracy of the bullet, and it can shoot spiritual bullets with the effect of 'Holy Judgement'."

Holy Inquisition will cause extra holy damage to evil things, and this effect naturally restrains evil things.

"Then what are its negative effects?" Almost all mysterious heritage has a cost to use.

"It loves to be clean." Catherine carefully wrapped Lady Stern with a silk handkerchief, and hung the gun in the leather holster hanging down to her thigh.

Sean understood what Catherine meant: if the gun body was dirty, it wouldn't work.

Holy Inquisition is a very powerful effect, but it is really difficult to keep the gun body clean during the mission. So "Severe Ladies" only has a C rating.

Catherine took out a hunting knife with a metal engraving on the scabbard from the cabinet.

The copper wings on the scabbard extended to the hilt, turning into a copper hilt in the shape of an eagle's head.

The Quillian language is Kukulttan, the name of this hunting knife can be translated as "Ancestral Eagle", and it is also a C-level mysterious heritage.

"It would be good for a Queen-level explorer to have a C-level mysterious heritage," the most common C-level piece, the price of which is more than a thousand yuan within the association, Sean looked at the beautiful hunting knife, "Catherine actually has two Piece, really... a wealthy woman!"

After that, Catherine took out two more items from her equipment cabinet and put them in the backpack she was carrying. Then she closed the cabinet door, and the group was all equipped and walked out of the preparation room.

It was nearly midnight, and there was no one in the building. The four took the elevator directly to the underground parking lot, and Katherine drove a black Ford car without the association logo into the thick night outside the building.

It was extraordinarily quiet tonight, and there were not many vehicles in the car.

The night light made the street lights dim, making it difficult to see the distance.

A block away from Thirteenth Avenue, Catherine stepped on the brakes: "Wait a minute."

In the eyes of the three, Catherine took something out of her backpack, then turned her face out of the window, took off the violet nightingale mask, and put on a somewhat strange mask - on the white female face, stained a lot of blood.

The name of the mask is "Bloodstained Maid~www.NovelMTL.com~ After seeing Catherine's mask, Sean, Moonlight and Henry were all a little surprised.

Because, the blood-stained maid is one of the "masks of shame".

If the explorer betrays his teammates during the mission and violates the code of the explorer, he will be tried in the "Association Tribunal".

If found guilty, the association will deprive the explorer of his qualifications, take back his original mask, and force him to wear a "mask of shame" as part of the punishment.

This symbolizes the permanent death of the "explorer" identity of the person being judged.

When Catherine put on such a mask, the three of Sean were naturally very shocked.

Without explaining much, she took out a bottle of gray liquid from her bag.

This bottle is very strange - a metallic skull cap, which seems to encapsulate the writhing spirits.

Catherine opened the bottle cap, took a quick sip of the liquid with gray smoke, and then closed the bottle cap as quickly.

"Catherine...?" Before Sean could finish speaking, the young actress sitting in the driver's seat suddenly experienced a huge change.

Her hair was messy, fluffy and greasy, covering most of her face.

A strong resentment poured out of his body, like an evil spirit. The clothes on his body have also become tattered and rotten due to the influence of resentment, and there are black blood stains that have dried up for many years.

Her joints were stagnant like old unoiled puppets, her arms moved uncoordinated, and Sean seemed to hear the sound of the joints rubbing. There was also a gurgling, scalp-tingling sound of bubbles in the throat.

"Catherine?" The captain in the driver's seat suddenly changed, which made the three of them quite nervous.

Suddenly, the exposed skin due to torn clothes turned blue and purple, and frightening corpse spots appeared...
