The Ancient Gods' Whisper
Chapter 697 - 339: Mr. Solomon, the Secret of the Pseudo Ancestor
At 4:25 in the morning, Gu Jianlin arrived at a company called Miyako Manufacturing. This time, he removed his golden mask and wore sunglasses and a mask, covering his head with a sun hat. He was dressed in a white loose hoodie paired with black slim-fit pants and wore white sneakers, looking as if he had just come out of an internet café.
Shibuya is known as the city that never sleeps, and even now, there were small groups of young people on the street. However, this huge landmark building was already closed, with only security guards at the entrance. According to the internet, this is a biotechnology company founded sixty years ago, primarily focused on the medical industry.
According to the investigation, this company has no relation to the civilization of the Ancient God Clan.
As long as he switches to the Ghost Slayer Path, he can transform into a non-existent ghost and walk straight through the security booth.
He carried the sword bag on his back and stood in the parking lot, looking at the deep night. Only a few floors of the building in front of him were still lit up. This feeling of late night always made one think of certain ghost stories.
"Are you sure that Miyamoto Shosuke is here?"
He asked skeptically.
"I noticed three hours ago."
Skylark's voice echoed in his mind, eerily strange.
Gu Jianlin continued to walk forward, frowning as he said, "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"If we came three hours earlier, the Si Family would be doomed. You and I would lose the protective cover of being hidden under the lamp; it's not worth it. Besides, I wanted to test how strong Jiang Chunyang really is." Skylark still spoke in a lazy and casual tone, describing the number one person in the Dark World as if he were a Godzilla.
"It's not too late now; it's also a great opportunity."
She snorted, "At this time, the Judges will conduct a large-scale search throughout Tokyo. Who knows how many people will be raided? You could think of it as the Jinyi Guards of the Ming Dynasty. Tonight, none of the Six Major Families can rest easy."
Gu Jianlin was taken aback, "The Six Major Families? Including the Jiang Family?"
"Of course, the Jiang Family is also very harsh on itself."
Skylark said blandly, "They won't stop even for a minute if they can't find me, but among these people, there are definitely some spies from The Order of the Hidden. So I need you to be my Human Pillar Power to counter them."
Gu Jianlin thought, "I see. I didn't expect the Dark World to have such a strong grip on Yingzhou Island."
In his consciousness, the antique room materialized again. The exceptionally beautiful girl played with her long hair, looking bored, and said softly, "Someone once said, Yingzhou Island is a prison. The people of the Six Major Families are both the wardens and the prisoners. Only the supreme strong at the top of the pyramid are the management, and there is only one warden."
"I understand, and as for the local Orochi Society, it's just a watchdog."
Gu Jianlin said calmly.
Upon further inspection, the You Ying Group is indeed a band of robbers.
They forcibly colonized Yingzhou Island.
In this respect, Skylark indeed had no reason to deceive him.
But this landmark gave him a very bad feeling deep in his heart.
Because he actually came to this area earlier this afternoon, looking for that mysterious coordinate.
Unfortunately, he found nothing.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
The old man in the security room, probably long retired, shakily picked up the flashlight and baton. Seeing on the surveillance screen that someone was illegally intruding, he took quite some time to get up from the recliner and press the alarm button.
One must say, it truly has the flavor of Ying Province.
Gu Jianlin wasn't surprised someone would come here. Because the corpse of that Pseudo Ancestor was in such a place, it was possible others would find it too. It's just a coincidence.
He quickly passed through the wall and re-emerged as a physical form in the dark hall.
The electrical system of the entire building had not been cut off, so the elevator was still operational.
"Thirty-second floor."
Skylark, like an Empress on high, commanded.
Gu Jianlin pressed the elevator button, watching as the metal doors closed and the red numbers above his head jumped continuously.
"I just reviewed the intel on Miyamoto Shosuke. There was nothing special about his early life. If written in a web novel, it'd be suspected of being filler. He spent his life practicing Sword Dao, running his sword dojo, marrying, and having children until the Xia Family noticed him and he rapidly ascended to the Holy Land Level. Later, he was heavily injured by the Order World and accepted treatment at a facility owned by You Ying Group. If something went wrong, it must have been during this period. Before that, he was a good man from the Gu Family. And reportedly, after he recovered, he never returned to see his wife and children, not even when his son had leukemia."
Skylark coldly snorted, "Are you saying it was then he was controlled by The Order of the Hidden?"
"Probably so."
Gu Jianlin shook his head and said, "I just don't know how he became a Pseudo Ancestor."
Skylark fell silent this time.
With a ding-dong, the elevator to the thirty-second floor opened, and a chill hit him in the face.
The central air conditioning was delivering cold air, but that wasn't the point.
The point was, there was a kind of Yin energy here.
Gu Jianlin gripped the sword bag, stepping out of the elevator, the green light illuminating his face.
"What kind of ghost place is this? Is it the set of a Japanese horror film?"
Skylark commented in his mind.
Gu Jianlin strolled along the corridor, passing by research labs filled with reagents and instruments. Some monkey hair was scattered on the floor, probably residuals from lab monkeys used for drug testing.
