Chapter 67 - 67. Nightfall (1/2)

The meeting room was solemn, Christine and Sam had ugly expressions. James said sourly, ”This is bad. They knew about Emma's movements!”

Sam nodded, ”They moved fast, which means whatever you guys are doing is either dangerous for them or extremely beneficial for them, and they are willing to break in knowing there would be atleast be one class S inside.”

His words seems to have hit the nail, Christine didn't speak but her face explained everything.

The room got silent, Leo ignored the silence and said, ”The amn I just killed is a clone, his main body now knows there are two class S here.”

”Since they were bold enough to break in then we can assume that the fight isn't over. The sun is still up, the true battle will begin at nightfall.”

”They now know of me and Madam Christine, so if they attack...

He didn't need to finish for others to understand what he was saying. Two class S, and if the rogue Extraordinaries still attacked, then that means they are confident enough to win.

Leo shifted his gaze towards Emma and asked, ”What the heck are you researching for these rogue Extraordinaries to get so worked up about?”

Emma dodged his eyes, however she slightly tightened her grip on her personal pouch hanging on her waist. Leo saw this and didn't comment, anyway he wasn't the least bit interested.

The unit got busy, Sam ordered everyone to be prepared. The unit was fortified, and patrolling was doubled. Leo even saw several gattling guns sticking out of the wall, he was surprised that this technology was developed this far back or maybe it's because this world is different.

Sam put Emma deep inside the unit, without going through all the agents and two class S, the rogue Extraordinaries won't be able to reach her.

Everyone was tensed, only Leo seemed relaxed. He battled Muzan and nearly killed him, if it isn't someone of his caliber then it wasn't a challenge to him anymore.

However he was curious about class S Extraordinaries.

Slowly the sun disappeared and darkness fell over the city. Lamps were lit and brightened the entire unit. Sam held his large shotgun and waited.

One hour... two hour...

Time ticked by and yet there was no signs of movement. Leo and Sam waited patiently however the men behind them slightly relaxed their tensed mind.

”Sir Leo...

Before he could say anything else Leo stopped him. His spiritual sense was focused on this man, he sensed a different presence for a second on this man but it was now gone.

Just as he was guessing what was happening another presence popped up in a different direction. Leo had a bad feeling about what was happening.

Boom!

Without notice an agent pulled the pin on a grenade and threw it to his own feet. The other agents couldn't react in time, a few of them were swallowed in flames and died.

Within his spiritual sense Leo sensed the same presence popping up all over the place. The men had a confused look in their eyes and their bodies turned stiff.

Leo shouted, ”Sam, get your men to stand down and retreat! They are being controlled!”
