Chapter 390 Shadow Old Man Arnold
Chapter 390 Shadow Old Man Arnold
The old man in the shadow is also called Arnold. He is a male assassin in his seventies. His name was once sung in the dark streets and alleys. He is a legendary existence. His true face is thin and old, but he still exudes an indescribable majesty. However, he has long learned to restrain himself and rarely exposes it. His cold eyes contain wisdom and experience accumulated over the years. His face is indifferent, as if he has been tempered by the years and has no emotions. No matter how cruel the situation is, he can always remain calm and composed. It seems that nothing can shake his mood. This is the quality of being a top killer. However, his mood has always been broken by a young man in recent years. Whenever he finally adjusts his mood, the young man will throw a stone into his heart. Although he is over seventy years old, he still maintains excellent skills and sharp insight like a hawk. This makes people in the organization full of awe and admiration for him. As an assassin, Arnold is wise and cautious. Every action is carefully considered and planned, like a shadow in the dark night, looming in the wind and rain. When he was young, Arnold always accepted tasks that were full of danger and challenges, requiring strategy and courage to complete. In short, Arnold is a legendary existence. His arrogant, cold and ruthless but wise image is deeply rooted in people's hearts, making him an immortal person in the organization.
Xingluo's contact person in the Shadow Organization, the Shadow old man Arnold appeared. Xingluo already knew the other party's legendary experience. It was only because the Moonfall Organization continued to grow stronger that some clues were found. After all, the Shadow Organization is not only a killer organization, but also an intelligence organization with strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities. It seems that the Shadow Organization has intelligence capabilities that are not inferior to the Moonfall Organization. After all, the Moonfall Organization has only been established for a few years. Even with his own help, it is still much shorter in terms of time. It is said that the Shadow Organization has existed for a long time, but no one knows how long it has been. Assassination organizations are like this. They are rarely active in everyone's vision, but they always leave some clues when the royal power changes. It's not that the assassination organization cannot completely eliminate all traces. After all, the operation of the organization also requires a lot of funds. Some killers also have a habit of leaving marks on the murder scene. Therefore, in order for the organization to continue to grow and receive more orders, appropriate exposure is still necessary.
Xingluo looked at the old man and felt quite touched, but he did not show it. He was still the same as usual. The other party was the same. He still noticed the subtle changes in Xingluo, but as usual, the two began a conversation.
"The organization has received many assassination missions recently, and it seems that they are intentional, so I have a lot of assassination targets that are suitable for you. They were all extremely vicious bastards in the past. Even an old man like me can't help but shudder when reading about those experiences." Arnold handed Xingluo a roll of parchment.
Xingluo took it, and sure enough, it was full of the dirty history of the Church of Light, especially the target of this assassination, who often brutally killed the women he dated, and then put them into a unique red bag, but the head and thighs were not there. He looked like a bright and beautiful Knight of Light, and his strength had even reached the level of a Griffin Knight, surpassing the Sky Knight, but lower than the Earth Dragon Knight. Moreover, he used the Knight Sword to perfection. Just looking at the corpses, it was clear that he had an abnormal understanding of the human body, and it seemed that killing people was just to understand the human body structure better, but Xingluo did not think so, because if he just wanted to understand the human body structure, he should not limit the gender, and he did not kill a woman when he saw her, but only killed the women he dated.
Xingluo's hands trembled slightly as he held the information. How perverted must this man be to dismember a woman who loved him deeply with his own hands? After seeing this, Xingluo decided to make him his target. The opponent was of suitable strength and posed a certain challenge. If the assassination was really accomplished, his strength would also increase. As for other targets, Xingluo did not return them to Arnold directly, but would see if there were any suitable ones at that time.
The targets of this Knight of Light seemed to be acquaintances, that is, people around him whom he often came into contact with, instead of choosing targets randomly. He first used his status and powerful strength to chat with the other party, and then spent a lot of time accompanying the other party. The gifts he gave were more expensive than the other. The other party even thought that this knight wanted to have a romantic wedding full of religious ceremonies with her. The woman soon fell under this offensive, and just when the woman's love for the Knight of Light reached its peak, the other party cruelly attacked and killed her, and then studied her body structure to further improve her swordsmanship. Xingluo had an urge to vomit when he saw this. Although he had seen killings, it was rare to see such a pervert who not only destroyed the body but also trampled on the spirit.
Since he had to spend a lot of time pursuing women, the frequency of killing was not very high, with about three or four women killed a year. In this chaotic era full of poisonous snow and hunger, this kind of thing could not attract other people's attention at all, so his cruel behavior has not been exposed to this day. If it weren't for this war, someone would have targeted him, and it would have been difficult to find out this information without sending someone to investigate carefully.
Xingluo's hand holding the parchment was trembling slightly. Killing on the battlefield was very common, killing monsters for survival was also normal, and killing enemies who wanted to kill you for self-protection was also normal. However, it was rare to see someone as perverted as this Knight of Light. Xingluo knew that the Knights of Light were a place where filth and dirt were lurking, and even the Holy See of Light had done too many despicable things under the cover of light, but he never expected that the first target would be such a cruel person.
This time the intelligence gathering work still relies on the power of the masses, that's right, a group of cats. Xingluo did not choose to directly trust the Shadow Organization. Although the two sides have cooperated many times, after all, there is the intelligence organization Yueyun. Frequent use of it can be regarded as an inspection of this organization. If loopholes are discovered, they can be remedied in time to make the Yueyun organization stronger.
Finally, a clue was revealed by a coachman and heard by a passing cat, which exposed the dark history of this cruel Knight of Light. Otherwise, the other party would be like a sunflower living in the sun, seemingly without a trace of dirt. For this reason, the Shadow Organization and the Moonfall Organization even conducted an information sharing event. After all, they cannot investigate all the intelligence by themselves. Appropriate efforts can reduce a lot of investigation costs and contribute to mutual benefit and win-win results for both parties. They can even exchange known intelligence to make the organization more perfect and stronger.
