Transcendent Dawn

Chapter 646: Coincidence

“Long time no see.”

Isaac excitedly came forward: “Ever since you resigned last time, I didn’t know where you had gone…”

“I’ve been traveling.”

Su Lu smiled in response, adding in his mind, but in other worlds.

“Anyway, you are very mysterious. Are all the Seans this extraordinary? I know there’s also a Sean in the Eleventh Bureau, I almost thought it was you. However, he is a big shot of the fifth level…”

Isaac was still as chatty and humorous as before.

Su Lu rubbed Hallock’s dog head, still feeling it was friendlier.

“Right… why are you here?”

Isaac ended his idle chatter and glanced somewhat warily at the flute in Su Lu’s hand.

‘Hmm…this guy has grown quite a bit… Well, to become a fourth-level professional, you need more than just luck.’

Su Lu playfully looked at the ground under Isaac’s feet, where the group of Transcendent ants he had summoned were gathered.

“I was traveling nearby and saw a [Ghost Doctor] preparing for something, as if he planned to ambush someone, so I waited here… I didn’t expect it to be you.”

Su Lu ‘admitted’.

“Is that all?” Isaac asked incredulously.

“That’s all!”

Su Lu replied seriously: “That [Ghost Doctor] has been captured by me, you can ask him if you don’t believe me.”

When Isaac saw the Black Dead Follower lying unconscious on the ground, it felt like something was about to snap in his head.

He suddenly stood up, staring at Su Lu, “You… aren’t you Sean, the mysterious big shot of the Eleventh Bureau? Although you don’t look like him, there are many ways to change appearance using transcendent powers.”

Except for a fifth-level professional, who is also a [Necromancer King] – the advanced form of [Ghost Doctor], he couldn’t think of any way to subdue a fourth-level professional so quickly!

If this Sean is that ‘Sean’, everything would make sense.

“You understand too little about mystery, however… this is not necessarily a bad thing.”

Su Lu shook his head, giving a negative reply: “Shouldn’t you focus on your case now?”

“Alright…”

Isaac inexplicably relented and started to look at the Black Dead Follower on the ground.

This was an old man with white hair, dressed very plainly. If a few minutes ago, someone had told Isaac that he was a Black Dead Follower, and a fourth-level [Ghost Doctor], he would not have believed it.

But now, he first took out a pair of handcuffs and cuffed the old man before waking him up.

“Cough, cough…”

The old man woke up coughing after being splashed with a bucket of cold water.

His eyes were very strange, with dark pupils and an evil black color that made one’s skin crawl at a glance.

“Black Death Society member, [Ghost Doctor], state your name, and why did you attack me?”

Isaac asked smugly.

Without saying anything, the old man’s eyes flickered wildly.

“He’s trying to summon those previous spiritual bodies, but they have all been driven away by me…” Su Lu said indifferently.

“Damn, he’s not giving up? Hallock, go!”

Isaac yelled and ordered Hallock to attack.

“Ah!!!”

A scream sounded in the dense forest, startling a lot of birds.

Half an hour later.

The old man, whose clothes had stripes, and body was full of blood and claw marks, finally spoke: “I’ll tell… Get that bloody dog off me… my name is Mandewen!”

“Good, Mr. Mandewen, we have reached an agreement.”

Isaac chuckled and told Hallock to step back. He crouched down and asked, “Then…why did you attack me?”

“I am a follower of the Evil God. Is it strange to attack official members?”

Mandewen asked back incredulously.

This made a lot of sense, leaving Isaac speechless.

“Alright… let’s change the question, why kidnap those innocent children?”

On this point, Mandewen closed his mouth.

“I knew it… Hallock.”

Isaac ordered Hallock to move forward.

“Even if you let this dog bite me to death… I won’t…”

Mandewen looked at Hallock’s glowing blue eyes, his expression suddenly became confused.

“Haha… This is Hallock’s hypnotic ability. Even though you are a fourth-level professional, you can still fall into the trap if you’re not careful!” Isaac triumphantly said: “Tell me… Why did you kidnap children?”

“For… a… ritual.”

Mandewen’s eyes took on a touch of blue as he answered hesitantly.

“What ritual?”

Isaac’s expression became solemn.

There’s nothing good that can come from the rituals of the followers of the Evil God.

“By the order of our society’s leader… a curse, he intends to curse an enemy.” Mandewen revealed the secret without any resistance.

“Who is that enemy?”

At the mention of this, the old man’s face showed a strong hatred: “The traitor who blasphemed the goddess’s path, a senior employee of the Eleventh Bureau – Sean! Our leader has figured out his whereabouts … this time, we not only aim to weaken him but also to hunt him!”

“Hey, mate…”

Hearing this, Isaac’s expression suddenly became strange. He looked at Su Lu: “Are you sure you’re not Sean?”

If not, why was he in the vicinity? And why is he an enemy of the Black Death Society?

“I really am not…”

Su Lu was already tired of denying it.

“Alright… It just seems too coincidental, extremely coincidental. However, that Sean is an advisor for the Eleventh Bureau and technically a colleague of mine. If I can help, I should.”

Isaac asked: “Where is your society’s leader? And where is Sean?”

“Our leader is… in Red River Gorge… as for Sean… I don’t know…”

Mandewen answered.

“Alright, you can go back to sleep.”

Isaac made Mandewen unconscious, then started to pace in deep thought, seemingly making a difficult decision.

“Are you going to save those children? Aren’t you considering asking for help from the higher-ups?”

Su Lu seemed to see through his worries and asked with a smile.

“No, no. If this kind of ritual starts, those children will suffer terrible harm… I’m afraid we might not have enough time.”

Isaac suddenly bowed respectfully to Su Lu: “Sean… are you… sir?”

“Sir” is the respectful title for level five and level six professionals.

“I suppose…”

Su Lu laughed: “Do you want my help?”

“This is my request, and the Federation will not forget your merit…”

Isac said earnestly.

Meanwhile, he was pondering in his heart. Does the Federation have a second ‘Sean’ who is a level five professional?

‘No… maybe this Sean is that Sean! Helping me is actually helping himself.’

So Isaac thought.
