Chapter 444 - Asyaka Cult (3) (1/2)

After lunchtime the next day, Auron went inside Patrick's house. He was coming back from finishing the task that Alice gave last night.

Inside the house, Alice had been waiting for him along with the two hostages. Alice was in the middle of giving these two men food, and water.

All of them were about to attend the meeting, and Alice didn't want the cult to find out about everything that happened because of the unenergized hostages.

”Are you done?” Alice put the food on the table and asked Auron.

”Here,” Auron took out something and gave it to Alice.

”Is it working perfectly?”

Auron shooked, ”It is working but not perfect. There is some flaw and could not reproduce the perfect sound.”

Last night, Alice had given Auron a tape recorder and had ordered Auron to take a device from the intelligent division. It was a voice changer device.

This voice changer was more advanced than the one that was currently used inside an operation. It used the voice given and analyzed it. Then, the device would apply the same voice with the given voice. Sadly, it was still on the testing stage and wasn't perfect yet.

Auron spent almost 1 day to go back and forth from the military base and this place. Fortunately, everything was swift, and no obstacle was found.

During the way, Auron also tested the device by himself. He tried using a variety of features implemented at the device.

Sadly, the device had some flaws in it. It could only record one voice and could not change to another voice. Not only that, but the lifetime of the device was also short. It could only work for 1 hour.

Auron had brought 2 devices from the intelligence division. However, since he tested during the way back, one of the devices only had half time remaining. Both devices had Patrick's voice in it.

This was Alice's plan, she would pretend to be Patrick. This plan should be work since the meeting was done in virtual.

Although Patrick never said it, Alice had deduced it somehow. If every day, there would be a face to face meeting with someone above, then it would be a nuisance to travel here every day. Hence, the meeting should be a virtual one.

And Alice's deduction was proven right when she searched Patrick's corpse. On the corpse, she found a device that should be the one used for the meeting. It was the kind of device to create some kind of conference call without a video feature.

Alice activated the meeting device. A bustling sound immediately heard from the device. A lot of conversation took place. These people boasted their achievements to their friends. It was 5 minutes before the meeting had started.

From the conversation, Alice and Auron could only get one information. There were many small groups like Patrick's group scattered across the area.

5 minutes later, one heavy coughing sound was heard, ”Ahem!”

With that one cough, every conversation immediately died down. ”Now, let us do our routine. Starting from...”

The leader of this meeting called out a name one by one. Each the called name immediately gave their detailed reports like how many sacrifices they got, any suspicious activity from the military, or any impediment on their mission.
