Chapter 43: Secret Order (Part 2/2) (2/2)

Zhang Yingying’s mouth had already gone dry by talking so much in her explanation of Secret Orders. She rushed to eat some fruits to replenish herself. She waved her hand to indicate that she heard him and spoke ambiguously:

“You have the HexaEar already. Go look yourself.”

“......”

“I believe that Mr. Luo has already achieved a portion of it, and may have even exceeded the level of an ordinary Awakened. But you're extremely over-specialized.”

He Yueyin had suddenly entered the conversation, and she had given quite the explicit judgment.

Zhang Yingying went “Hey hey!” and shouted: “Let’s not talk about this for now, how’s the matter with this Order?”

Luo Nan really wanted to whip her!

Ultimately, He Yueyin was more concerned with their proper business. She responded: “I’ve already notified the Society, we will first withdraw……”

“It can’t be. We had such a strong start, but we’re finishing so weak?” Octopus, who was rushing to adjust his drug composition, lifted his head. “We’re ending things just like this?”

“Actually, some leader of this Order has been protesting against the actions of the Society, that we’ve interrupted their ‘Sacred Ritual’.”

Octopus ate some shock: “We’ve been discovered?”

Luo Nan was quite baffled: “How were we discovered?”

Cat Eyes glared at him quite unreasonably: “You blaming me?”

Zhang Yingying’s attention centered elsewhere: “Sacred…..Ritual? Here?”

She immediately threw out the fruit platter, spread her hand, and laughed out. Who was it that spoke of “holding back against evil in fear of harming the innocents” just now?

Everyone in the room had a different reaction, but He Yueyin had the most cool-headed attitude. She responded:

“The leaders of this Order spoke without logic, and the methods of Secret Orders exceed common sense. Regardless of anything, our target is the Human-Faced Arachnid, not some Secret Order. This operation is now terminated. We will withdraw. I will create a briefing on all matters that happened and deliver it to the Society and the hands of every one of you.”

This time, these words were transmitted using the Psychic Wave Network. Then a strange cry of exasperation sounded within the encrypted channel.

Zhang Yingying’s eyebrows shot up: “This Order jumped quite high up in fright! You sure they aren’t colluding with the Human-Faced Arachnid? What’s this Order’s name! Reveal it to me!”

He Yueyin didn’t speak. She just shook her head to indicate to Zhang Yingying to look at the projection equipment of the lighting fixture in the middle of the room.

It was unknown when, but the “burning” pink glow of the lighting fixture could no longer be seen. And on the two sides of it was the emergence of a new image.

There were two thin chains hanging down the sides, each one hanging a flat dish. One dish was black, the other was white. The two were in symmetry, hanging in the air motionless to form the typical style of a Balance Scale.

This time Zhang Yingying’s lips split into a grin. She wanted to talk, but in the end, her mouth remained shut.

It was actually Octopus who whispered:

“Mommy! It’s the Order of Justice!”

1. Shadow Mist (影雾) was mentioned in Chapter 13.2. It was the method that the military used to detect the burning wraith on Ship Lanshan.

2. Zhang Yingying made fun of Luo Nan for believing in secret societies and dark organizations in Chapter 18.2.
