Chapter 905: Section 600: Meeting (Part 1)

Heinstant parked his favorite motorcycle in the motorcycle storage, and after tapping his personal ID card, the mechanical system recuperated the motorcycle and placed it properly in the large motorcycle storage grid. This was a brand new parking method, a towering eight-story automatic mechanical storage depot, changing the previously inefficient parking methods.

Efficiency is indeed a highly effective way of extending life.

With such a sigh, a senior instructor from Mage Tower quickly walked into the rail transit hub. The fully automatic lifting platform fundamentally saved people’s knees. The old man pulled out a somewhat worn pocket watch from the inner pocket of his tidy coat, opened it, looked at the time, and nodded in satisfaction.

Today, his brother was to arrive in the city, said to be in pursuit of the descendants of a criminal family who had betrayed their sect and sold information to those madmen.

As the platform steadied, Heinstant, along with the crowd, left the platform and stood at the front of waiting lane number seven. The old man reconsidered the agreement with his old friend.

This report is somewhat difficult to write. To outsiders, the Haus and the Gaiates families are two completely unrelated families, but everyone knows how terrifying these two families were a thousand years ago.

With an average Sequence of three, each generation having a Transcendent, and each family having its own Legendary, it is only in the recent six hundred years, as the spiritual tide began to wane again, that these two families seemed to have mixed too many bloodlines, gradually losing their former glory... However, this was just the external perception. In the real Transcendent World, the House of Haus from Toby tribe and the Gaiates with their Domestic Fairies remain the most terrifying group in the entire pharmaceutical industry. Compared to them, Rasmus is hardly worth mentioning, even if to Mortals, Rasmus’ pharmaceutical group seems stronger than the Gaiates’ group.

But only the Gaiate-Haus Union can still steadily produce the ancient potions from the Great Destruction Era, which even today can ignite the path to transcendence for Mortals.

These two branch families are deeply rooted in the Western Human World, and even the most radical branches of the Temple Knights have not dared to act against them—indeed, a surprise attack can kill targets, but the ensuing retaliation would make any branch suffer a river of blood. The most recent time, the radical Judgers’ Congregation sought to control the patriarch of the Gaiates family with the Domestic Fairy. They mounted a surprise attack when the patriarch’s defenses were slack; seventeen attackers died, they managed to kill three guards, and upon bursting through the door, they found the Gaiates patriarch committing suicide with a gun.

Two days later, the families of the seventeen were slaughtered to extinction, five outposts of the Judgers’ Congregation were bloodbathed. Observers unrelated to the situation at the perimeter saw the Legendary of the Gaiates’ main family from The Great Forest Land and the patriarch of the Haus’ main family from the Justice Congregation of the Temple Knights, who persuaded the head of the Judgers’ Congregation, settling the dispute by having him and all his chief subordinates commit suicide.

Therefore, Heinstant wants to avoid any relationship with the Gaiates family as much as possible.

But this time is different, it involves a traitor; if even the traitor cannot be completely eradicated, their Congregation has no standing in the world.

Heinstant sighed, instinctively feeling that the Congregation was misguided, but this was Primate’s responsibility; he could not overstep, hence he could only come to meet this brother.

As the high-speed rail slowly approached, the old man waited for the moment the vehicle doors would open; and when the doors did open, his tall stature allowed him to spot his brother in the crowd.

The other stood there smiling, waiting until other passengers had passed through the doors before fitting his hunting cap onto his head. He then picked up his luggage and approached Heinstant: "Brother, I have arrived."

This was Ingram Farnor, a hardliner within the Congregation, advocating for waging another war against the Assassin’s Guild.

"Welcome to the Eastern Human World, my brother, I hope you bring good news."

"Of course, my brother, we have located the last branch of that traitor, the final judgment will be executed tonight. Are you ready to cheer, my brother?"

"Of course, my brother, for the Congregation."

"Yes, my brother, for the Congregation."

At this point in the conversation, Heinstant gestured for his brother to follow him: "By the way, I read the message that came; you have an Apprentice bringing a child as well?"

"Yes, they are taking Line Eight here, because the intelligence indicates someone might use the opportunity of you leaving the Rasmus family to meet me to attempt an assassination on you."

Hearing this explanation, Heinstant stopped in his tracks: "I need an answer, my old friend, this message could only have spread from within the Congregation."

"Of course, it’s just a fishing expedition. Our agent last saw the fortunate six-fingered ancient order maintainer in New Hangzhou. He withdrew from the assault team sequence fifty years ago and currently should be leading a squad of apprentices of ancient order maintainers. That’s why the Congregation sent me to lure them into the open; they think this is just a meeting between two scholars."

"We cannot stoop so low." Heinstant sighed, and his brother shook his head: "Brother, it’s either them or us with the ancient order maintainers, don’t worry, the opponent has no Legendary, I alone can handle that lucky six-fingered and his Apprentices. Plus, we have another helper, remember Tot Landes? He’s waiting outside; when the ancient order maintainers come to attack us, he can help us hold our ground."
