Chapter 217: Seize Extraordinary Characteristics!
St. Mary's Hospital is a large hospital located in the West District. Those who come here for treatment are either rich or powerful.
At the gate, Hasta passed by in a carriage and lifted the curtain of the carriage to observe the specific situation of this hospital.
According to the information provided by Will, Count Gil will die in this St. Mary's Hospital tonight, and the bed he is currently in is in the fifth ward from the right to the left on the third floor facing the street.
Hasta did not stay for long, but simply took a look and asked the coachman to drive the carriage away. On the way, he passed by the place where Klein's Nighthawks team was.
This is what the Nighthawks team told him when they asked him for help last time.
Hasta measured the distance between here and St. Mary's Hospital, and silently calculated the time needed to travel.
Tonight, he wanted to snatch Count Gil's extraordinary characteristics, and he needed to fight with the people of the Steam and Mechanical Church. If the fight lasted too long, it would easily attract the attention of the nearby Nighthawks team.
"It's not a big problem."
Hasta felt that his invisibility should be able to make a quick decision.
At night, in a ward of St. Mary's Hospital.
Count Gil, whose life was about to come to an end, trembled and stretched out his fingers to scold his unworthy children and grandchildren, but in the end he did not have the strength, his palm fell on the white quilt, and his eyelids closed heavily.
Soon, a sad cry came from the ward.
There were many cries, and there were many people crying. The ward was already crowded, and many people stood outside the hospital corridor and shed tears silently.
There were also a few angry curses in the bursts of crying. It was Count Gil's friends who were teaching Count Gil's unworthy children and grandchildren.
Max Livermore was the captain of a mechanical heart team responsible for guarding the Roselle Memorial Exhibition. Because of his poor performance last time and some personal family reasons.
During this period, he has been taking tasks outside to keep himself busy so as not to worry about those annoying things.
This Count Gil was also a clergyman of the Steam and Mechanical Church when he was young. He left the church in his thirties and began to mix in the circle of powerful people in Loen.
It took him 20 to 30 years to be promoted from an ordinary baron to an earl, and he was a very good person. The only thing he failed in was the education of his children and grandchildren.
He had a son in his later years, and he only had one son. His overly doting education made his son a second-generation ancestor who only knew how to eat, drink and enjoy himself.
This time, he secretly took the family's land deeds out for gambling. When Earl Gil learned the news, he was already in poor health, and he was so angry that he went directly to the hospital.
During the hospitalization, his son and grandson were not supervised by anyone, and continued to spend money and gamble outside, and finally succeeded in angering Earl Gil to death.
Before Earl Gil died, he received news that he was asked to lead two team members to recover the extraordinary characteristics of Earl Gil after his death.
In order to show the human side of the church's law enforcement, he stood outside the door and waited for the people inside to cry for half an hour before leading the team members to go in and temporarily persuade the relatives and friends in the ward to leave.
Close the doors and windows, and then begin to extract the corrupted baron extraordinary characteristics in Earl Gil's body.
This extraordinary characteristic is not only the extraordinary characteristic of Sequence 6 Corrupted Baron, but also contains four extraordinary characteristics, Sequence 9 Lawyer, Sequence 8 Barbarian, and Sequence 7 Briber.
The value alone is enough to reach several thousand pounds. Earl Gil left his extraordinary characteristics to the church before his death, so that the church can help his descendants a little in the future, even though his descendants are not very motivated.
When the extraordinary characteristics were separated one by one, Max Livermore asked the team members to save and seal each extraordinary characteristic separately to avoid possible extraordinary spread and infection.
This process was very fast, only about ten minutes.
Compared with the tasks they had performed in the past, the task of recovering extraordinary characteristics seemed very simple.
Max Livermore came to the window and glanced outside to prevent anyone from peeping in the dark.
Now that there are too many extraordinary people mixed in Backlund, there are more extraordinary people who dare to take risks.
If they knew that there was such a big gift in the hospital tonight, they would definitely come here after smelling it.
When the four extraordinary characteristics were separated and stored separately, the surroundings were still silent. Max Livermore also let down his guard a little. He carried the safe containing the most important Sequence 6 Corrupted Baron Extraordinary Characteristics, and the other three were kept by his teammates.
After finishing the work, he led the team members to perform the ritual of the Steam and Mechanical Church to Count Gil, who had closed his eyes on the bed. This was a blessing and a farewell.
As they were saluting, Max Livermore suddenly saw a golden sword slashing towards his arm holding the safe!
It was very fast, and he subconsciously wanted to retract his arm, but he frowned slightly and did not retract his arm, but shouted Iron Arm.
A silver bracelet appeared on his wrist, which flowed like mercury, covering Max Livermore's entire arm, and blocked the golden sword.
Crack!
Although the arm was not cut off, the silver bracelet was directly cracked, and he was swept away by a huge force.
Seeing this, the two opponents on the side also hurriedly activated their extraordinary weapons to try to subdue the attacker.
But in their eyes, they could only see a big sword attacking their captain, and they couldn't see the position of the attacker at all.
At this moment, their captain was kicked away again, and the safe in his hand finally slipped out of his hand.
"Imprison!"
One of the team members threw a small round ball, which emitted lightning and formed a small thunder prison to protect the safe inside.
At the same time, another team member, a light gray ring on the index finger of his right hand, turned into a crossbow, and he was aiming at the upper position of the big sword.
Unfortunately, the big sword just swung lightly and shattered the small thunder prison. As for the crossbow arrows shot over, he didn't even dodge.
A figure wearing armor and whose face could not be seen clearly walked out of the invisible state, walked straight over and picked up the safe.
"Damn it!"
Max Livermore climbed up from the ground, his face full of anger, took out a pocket watch from his arms, and threw it at the mysterious figure.
The golden pointer in the pocket watch moved, and the surrounding time seemed to be stopped for a moment, and then began to go back.
But the mysterious figure just swept the safe in his hand around and swept the pocket watch to the opposite wall.
Time, which had not started to go back, was set right again and started to flow again.
Another team member took out his handgun and prepared to shoot.
"Don't shoot!"
Max Livermore hurriedly stopped him. Because of the noise in the ward, the people waiting outside the door were afraid of something happening, so they hurriedly opened the door.
If they shot at this time, it was not certain whether they could keep the mysterious man, and those outside would definitely suffer heavy casualties.
Among the people who came to the hospital to send Earl Gil tonight, there were many nobles.
Not daring to shoot, the two members and Max Livermore rushed up to prepare for hand-to-hand combat. They were familiar with using extraordinary weapons and replaced weapons such as guns and crossbows with electric batons, swords, and iron gloves.
At this time, a blood-colored vortex formed around the mysterious figure.
The blood of the people around them was flowing out of their bodies uncontrollably.
"Ah!"
"What's going on!"
"Go find someone to help!"
The people waiting outside the door finally reacted, but because there were too many people waiting in the corridor outside the door, the situation quickly caused chaos.
The mysterious figure rushed like a barbarian, knocking several people away in succession, and then quickly disappeared at the corner of the corridor.
Max Livermore and the other two appeased everyone while hurriedly chasing after him.
But when they chased to the corner, they could no longer see the trace of the mysterious figure.
Max Livermore looked at the empty and quiet hospital corridor, his face turned blue, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Captain, are you still chasing?"
"Chase!"
Max Livermore suppressed his irritability, left a team member here to take charge of the situation, and led another team member to chase out.
But from the time they found the first floor lobby from the third floor corridor to the outside of the hospital, they did not see the mysterious figure again.
And they asked the staff in the hospital, and they all said that they did not find any suspicious people.
Only those who had experienced the turmoil in the corridor at the entrance of the ward on the third floor could clearly see the mysterious figure.
Invisibility?
Invisibility that can conceal the whereabouts of the spirit!
Max Livermore thought for a long time with a dark face, and finally figured out how the other party could lurk in the ward without alerting anyone, and how he could completely disappear after just passing a corner.
Ordinary people cannot open their spiritual vision and cannot see the spirit of extraordinary people. As long as they can hide the spiritual vision of other extraordinary people, the effect of invisibility can be achieved.
Although he already knew the principle, he could not figure out how the other party did it.
Because he couldn't do it, many extraordinary people couldn't completely hide their spirits.
"Captain, what should we do next?"
Max Livermore rubbed his aching eyebrows and waved his hand, saying, "Report it, and then draw a portrait of the mysterious figure to see if we can find relevant information from the church's database."
"Count Gil's relatives and friends want us to give me an explanation, how should we answer?"
"Tell them that a thief was hiding behind the curtains just now, preparing to commit theft, and ran away after we found him."
Max Livermore patiently began to deal with the aftermath.
After doing all this, he collapsed on a bench in the hospital corridor.
Why did he encounter such bad luck again?
