Chapter 220 - Entering the Trap by Mistake

Along the Huangpu river bank, there was light coming from a high location from afar . These lights were flickering in different colors as they reflected on the surface of the river . Following the movement of the stream, it looked like a floating, colored ribbon in the dark .

A heavy odor similar to excrement drifted by, instantly ruining the beautiful scenery . This was followed by numbers of black figures coming out of the river, one by one . The odor came precisely from these figures .

The five figures were in the front, they looked like they were chasing away animals as they let out a severe, excoriating noise .

They began to swiftly move toward Xu Jiang’an, because they had to gather there before their objectives got there!

“Hui Si, you stay on outside . The second you see our objective, notify me immediately . ” The man wore a long grey cloak that covered his body, and a mask covering his face .

The five of them were all wearing long, grey cloaks . All of their bodies emitted a strange odor, and from one glance, you could tell they weren’t good people .

“Yes sir . ” The person called Hui Si immediately stood guard outside .

They entered a rather shabby factory . This factory seemed like it recycled lower quality meat, as it smelled like meat everywhere . There were a lot of other things mixed together with it, so it smelled more like dog food, and could still be sold for a good price somewhere .

The factory had some machines in operation . However, there was not a single person inside, perhaps no one within a hundred meters .

“Once we’ve gotten our objective, remember he needs to be alive . Do not fail, or else you know what will happen,” Hui Yi pointed at the Dark Beasts crawling around the floor, who only knew how to listen to orders .

The other three people glanced at the Dark Beasts, and couldn’t help but shiver coldly .

The scariest part about the Black Vatican was that once you’ve made a mistake, then the punishment you got was even worse than dying!

------

Outside of the factory, a man with a purple outfit slowly approached . His eyes were very solemn in the middle of the night .

“Lulu, you stay here . I’ll go in and take a look,” the guy said toward the girl next to him with a high ponytail .

“Don’t go in, they look very dangerous . . . Zhaoting, why are you following these people? Just what are those half-human, half-monster things?” the girl with the high ponytail called Lulu said .

When he unintentionally caught a whiff of an unusual odor from a student, Xu Zhaoting seemed like he had turned into a different person . Zhang Lulu did not understand just what had happened, she could only follow Xu Zhaoting .

“Don’t ask, you stay here . If I don’t come back within ten minutes, you must leave immediately . Remember, don’t stay here!” Xu Zhaoting said in a very serious tone .

Originally, Xu Zhaoting and Zhang Lulu were looking for the clues of the Shadow Beast together . However, when they were looking for clues around a playground, Xu Zhaoting caught a whiff of a very unusual odor .

This odor was something Xu Zhaoting would never forget . That’s because this was a smell emitted from a creature with a pitch black body that had appeared during the Calamity of Bo City .

Xu Zhaoting really hoped that his own sense of smell had a problem . However, when he was stealthily following that student, he had discovered that the student was a Dark Beast!

Black Vatican!

It was the people from Black Vatican!

They seem to be scheming something again!

Xu Zhaoting hated the people from the Black Vatican to the bones . They were the people that caused his family’s death .

Near Xu Zhaoting’s home was a lair tunnel . When he went to the different districts to find his family with a depressed spirit, he only found a white paper with names . His father, mother, little brother, and grandma’s name were all on the white paper .

He had survived, but suddenly, he was by himself .

Xu Zhaoting did his best to forget about it, he wanted to live again in a new environment . He met an alright girl, being with her made him very happy . This made him forget about the pain . . .

However, today, he smelled this odor .

This kind of odor was emitted from a student in the Pearl Institute . When he had pursued that student to this place, he had actually discovered this student was a member of the Black Vatican .

This factory seemed to be their nest .

He had to go in there to confirm it . If that really was the case, he will immediately notify the Magic Courts to have them come here .

These godforsaken Black Vatican . He had to completely eliminate all of them from this world!

------

Xu Zhaoting had already slowly infiltrated the factory . The factory was immensely large, there were many places for him to hide . Xu Zhaoting was confident in being able to protect himself .

Zhang Lulu was waiting outside . She did not have any movement spells, so the only thing she could do was wait outside and guard .

She was very worried . She didn’t know who these people were, however, she could feel that they were extremely savage . If Xu Zhaoting was discovered, then his life might not be guaranteed .

-------

Xu Zhaoting had Awakened his second Element . His second element was the Wind Element .

This was a relatively good thing for him . He needed a spell that allowed him to move quickly . Otherwise, he’d have a strong destructive Lightning, but no abilities to protect himself with .

Xu Zhaoting had infiltrated through a broken window . He was standing on one of those crossed steel bars as he overlooked the large and spacious factory .

“They were indeed here . One, two, three, four… strange . Why are they missing one?” Xu Zhaoting was watching this from up top, and had only discovered four grey-cloaked people hiding here . They looked like they were awaiting someone to ambush .

“Are you looking for me?” a dark and cold voice spoke up from behind him .

Xu Zhaoting’s face was shocked as he looked behind him . He realized one of them was standing at a place not too far behind him .

Xu Zhaoting was stunned .

How did he find him? Could it be that they actually set up a trap inside this factory?

Impossible! When he was following them before, there was no way they were able to discover him .

“Lightning Strike, Wrath Strike!”

Xu Zhaoting’s reaction was fairly quick, he quickly condensed lightning within his hands .

The imprints of Lightning immediately appeared in his surroundings as Xu Zhaoting quickly interlinked his Stars . They turned into couple of purple serpents as they flew toward the person behind him .

The Lightning would conduct through the steel bars . These conducted lightnings were able to win him an opportunity at a key moment .

“It’s the Lightning Element, the objective has appeared! Catch him!” The Hui Yi who looked like he was the leader immediately raced over .

The other three had already prepared a trap . Following the order, black figures emerged from all of the exits and windows . A strong smell of excrement began to rise all around .

Xu Zhaoting looked around his surroundings in shock, and realized that he had been completely surrounded .

In the front were around ten of them, on the beam of the steel bar were seven . From the exit and windows, there were around another eight!

There was a total of twenty-five Dark Beasts!

Xu Zhaoting could never have imagined that they had actually set up a trap here to surround him . . .

Just how were they able to discover he was following them?

“I’m gonna kill you!” Xu Zhaoting yelled out, his face filled with extreme rage .
