Chapter 161 – You And I Will Join Forces
“Bleghh!” Once Bel left, Lei Yu immediately coughed a mouthful of blood out as he clutched his chest gasping for air. If it wasn’t for the previous light heal by the Pope, Lei Yu would probably have fainted already. It would have been impossible for him to keep standing and converse with Bel since Lei Yu had completely lost all ability to fight any further. Fortunately, Bel didn’t realize this or the consequences would have been disastrous.
“May God be with you, the Vatican will forever be your most loyal friend. My dear Mr. Lei Yu, are you okay?” The Pope may have recovered a bit of strength now since he was able to stumble over to Lei Yu and help support him.
“You are truly blabbing nonsense; do I look okay to you? *Cough cough* Did you bring a cell phone with you?” Lei Yu asked while coughing.
“Cell phone? I’ve never owned a cell phone before.” Said the Pope.
Lei Yu felt helpless, “How can such an old person not even have a cell phone? I left in a hurry so I also didn’t bring one with me… ”
“Uhh… ”
“Let’s stop dawdling and get out of here, none of us can escape if Bel returns!”
Lei Yu and the Pope both hobbled to where Lei Yu parked his car. They then drove to a nearby city and found a random hotel to temporarily stay at. After Lei Yu’s rather strong demand, the Pope finally agreed to put on a new set of clothes which Lei Yu took out of his storage ring.
The two then began to recover their strength and their internal energy. Through the help of the Pope, Lei Yu’s injuries rapidly healed. Although the effects weren’t as fast as the green energy, it still wasn’t too bad under the circumstances.
Lei Yu and the Pope did not have much to say to each other since the two had already reached a consensus. The day Lei Yu leaves the U.S. would be the day he hands over the Ares boots to him. If the Pope were to say anything more about that subject, it would most likely annoy Lei Yu. It was after a full three days before Lei Yu was able to fully recover from his injuries. Since he was extremely worried about his people in New York City, the two parted ways.
Fortunately, everything was calm and nothing major had happened. It seems that Jonathan’s death had a great impact on the Dark Council. The passing away of a member that was a super expert would definitely be quite a loss to any organization. In addition, Bel was seriously injured as well since Lei Yu drilled a hole in one of his wings. He probably needs some time to heal himself.
However, from this day on, Lei Yu had made a powerful enemy – the Dark Council!
Lei Yu wasn’t sure if saving the Pope was the correct choice, but at least he averted a worldwide chaos.
Lei Yu was going to hide the information about the Ares boots from everyone temporarily since it would be his secret weapon. Bel would naturally notify the Dark Council about the whole situation, but he would definitely not tell Dr. Tony since they were originally enemies. The Bounty Hunters Guild belonged to Dr. Tony, and who knows how many Vampires of the Kameno family and the Werewolves clan his bounty hunters have killed. They will definitely settle matters with Dr. Tony, but this is also where contradictions arise.
Lei Yu saved the Pope. No matter how much Lei Yu refuses, the Pope would certainly treat him as a friend. The problem occurs when it comes to Dr. Tony, since Lei Yu would definitely not be on the same side as that asshole. That guy used ordinary people as experimental subjects to make them become his own slave. Lei Yu will sooner or later remove that type of evil from the world. He also has to step up the speed in taking care of his business because the longer he stays in the U.S., the more dangerous it will become for him. In other words, he has to remove the scourge of society as soon as possible so that he can return to Tenglong country in peace.
Making up his mind, he ordered Black Panther to carry out a series of tasks while a major plan was taking place in secret.
As a priority, Lei Yu had to find the headquarters of the Dark Council and eliminate them while they were unprepared.
After going through multiple channels and even thickening his face to ask the Pope, Lei Yu still came up empty. When he actually thought about it, if the Pope knew where the headquarters of the Dark Council was, he would have most likely attacked it a long time ago. There’s no way that the Pope would allow such an evil organization to co-exist with them for hundreds of years.
