185. Guild

The sun was shining brightly, and a gentle breeze was blowing.

Sulu rode in a horse-drawn carriage, letting the driver stroll around the Nia City.

At the same time, his Soul Projection, and through observation in the Mind World, he obtained a wealth of information.

"The Church of the Goddess of Light has been strengthened, with a fourth-tier master-level professional now in charge... The location of the branch of the Federal Bureau 11 has also been confirmed..."

"Meanwhile, in other parts of the city, there are remnants of supernatural power, the reason for which is unknown..."

What he's doing is searching for a suitable candidate to 'seal abilities'.

While it's possible to infiltrate even the Cathedral of Light from the Mind World, the biggest flaw lies in the fact that the sealed abilities could be used up.

Even if the other side can't find the culprit, they can call for backup from headquarters!

The same logic applies to the Bureau 11; therefore, Sulu will abandon these two locations.

What he was looking for was still that kind of wild superhuman, the kind who gets bullied to death and has nowhere to turn for help.

'Wouldn't you say I'm being a bully who preys on the weak to some extent?'

Sulu touched his face and felt that his skin was getting thicker. This was probably due to the influence of the second generation of the Crow Mask, not his fault.

'However... on the night before leaving Nia City, I still have to take advantage of whatever I can...'

Suddenly, he sensed another gathering of extraordinary power.

Furthermore, the quantity is large.

"Stop!"

Sulu quickly stopped the carriage, his soul returned to his body, he opened the carriage door, and looked towards the location where he had discovered it.

A huge building appeared before him, like a stadium, bustling with people, a sight rarely seen in Nia City.

"Where is this place?"

"Young Master Ron, this is the ' Nia City Bodyguard and Detective Agency'!"

The driver glanced at it and answered confidently, "This is a new service recently launched in Nia City... As you know, because of the recent disaster, many people feel insecure, leading to an explosive growth in security-related businesses. The city government therefore established this location and relaxed the qualification requirements for bodyguards and detectives..."

'This isn't some kind of agency; it's practically an ancient Mercenary Guild!'

Sulu frowned in confusion: 'So many extraordinary individuals gathered here, and it doesn't seem to be official. Is there some hidden secret in Nia City that I don't know about?'

He originally thought that with the official Iron Fist and cleanup, the cultists would probably not be able to stay in Nia City, and even many wild superhumans would leave.

But it seems that ordinary superhumans have not been affected, and there is even a hint of support for them.

'What's this? A pilot program? The city can't possibly get any worse, can it?'

"You wait here!"

Sulu thought for a moment, then strode inside.

Upon entering the gate, you'll see various exhibition booths neatly arranged, each serving as a contact point with a different sign.

--' Black Star Bodyguards, providing you with the most professional security'

--' Vivien, private investigator, specializing in investigating all kinds of extramarital affairs and infidelity'

--'Detective Fatima Muntari, a trustworthy and professional detective'

"Um?"

In this exhibition booth, Sulu also spotted a 'familiar face'.

Detective Fatima Montari, a tall, red-haired woman who had previously purchased information on Beatrice Taylor and Kira Giles from them, sat behind a desk, listlessly resting her head on her hand.

Sulu only now realized that the other party was actually a superhuman.

She seemed to notice Sulu's gaze, gave him a polite smile, and clearly did not recognize Sulu's true identity.

The person she knew was Sulu, not the blue-haired Ron.

"How can I help you?"

Seeing Sulu sit down at the stall, Fatima Montari perked up and politely inquired.

"I'm from out of town, and I haven't been in Nia City for very long..."

Sulu asked, "Is the security business here always this good? It makes me want to invest in it."

Fatima glanced at Sulu's attire: high-end clothes, well-tailored, with an understated luxury, clearly indicating he was a wealthy man!

She smiled and said, "After a major disaster, social order is difficult to rebuild in a short time. With shortages of supplies, robberies and thefts are rampant... It's inevitable that this industry will be booming, but like the tide, it will eventually come down."

"A very apt metaphor, a beautiful lady."

Sulu smiled inwardly; this didn't explain why there were so many extraordinary individuals here.

He glanced around. "I have some private matters I'd like to ask you about. Could we go somewhere else?"

"No problem!"

Fatima seemed to be in a good mood today. "I won't refuse an invitation from a gentleman."

Half an hour later, in a private room at the coffee shop.

Sulu stirred the rich, creamy aroma of his black coffee, his voice low and menacing. "Madam... I know some things about the Inner World.' As a renowned detective, you couldn't possibly be unaware of such matters, could you? I hope we can be frank with each other!"

It would be strange if a wealthy, high-society figure like Federation didn't know about the extraordinary realm.

Moreover, the events that occurred in Nia City cannot be hidden.

Despite repeated denials from the Federation, the existence of superhumans in Nia City is practically an open secret to anyone with even a little bit of information.

"So... what do you want to know?"

Fatima gracefully sipped her coffee and leaned back slightly.

"I want to... access that world, you know? That kind of real, extraordinary power..."

Sulu displayed the obsession and Frenzy typical of a young man interested in mysterious powers. "So... I want to hire you to investigate and find me safe and convenient channels in this area..."

Fatima's expression turned somewhat strange for a moment.

Sulu knew very well that this woman was probably already considering whether or not to sell her professional information.

At the same time, they might be looking at themselves, this 'Muggle,' with a mocking expression, enjoying the thrill of disguising their identity.

After a long pause, Fatima added another sugar cube to her coffee, "I do know something about what you're saying, but what price are you willing to pay for it?"

"One hundred Gold Dragon!"

Sulu had no intention of saving Billy money, and unsurprisingly, he saw Fatima's eyes light up. He added, "This is just a deposit!"

"My God! Generous young master!" Fatima exclaimed, "You will know everything you want to know, I swear!"

The price is roughly the same for a basic Tier 1 job.

At this point, Fatima was genuinely considering whether or not to sell herself.
