Luxurious and gorgeous bedroom interior.

Madam Sharon was lying on a comfortable rocking chair, naked, looking at himself in the mirror.

She looked at her, her cheeks flushed pink, her eyes seemed to have water dripping out, and her expression was blurred with strange love and affection.

Outside the house, he simply completed the divination and after confirming the safety, Klein nodded to the captain Dunn, indicating that he could start pulling Madam Sharon Dream Infiltration.

Klein leaned against the car door, and while listening to the captain's arrangements, he moved his right hand unaccustomedly.

Because today he was wearing a pair of black gloves on his hands.

He doesn't usually wear gloves, but this time he needed to use gloves to cover up the abnormality on his hands.

On his right hand, there is another glove hidden under the black glove.

It was a thin flesh-colored glove, covering the right hand and looking like a layer of slightly different-colored skin.

This is Creeping Hunger, which Klein rented from Morien.

The capital was one gold pound per night, which almost made him feel distressed to death.

Klein's fingers expanded and contracted, and he felt like his heart was bleeding all the time.

"Oh----" He sighed silently.

"What's wrong?" Dunn immediately noticed the abnormality of Klein.

Klein showed no abnormality and shook his head.

"I just feel that these cultists shouldn't exist at all, and I don't understand why they do these things."

Klein, who uses Clown's ability to control his expression very well, said this.

There is no problem with Sequence 8's "hold" skill, and two Sleepless Pathway's Beyonder.

These words touched both Dunn and Kenley, and they nodded in agreement.

Soon, the three Nighthawks simply arranged the tactics. Captain Dunn closed his eyes directly and started to pull Madam Sharon Dream Infiltration.

After receiving the captain's signal, Klein and Kenley entered Madam Sharon's room one after the other.

Kenley entered through the stairwell, while Klein surrounded it through the side wall.

Inside the house, Madam Sharon lowered her head, seeming a little tired. There was a bone statue on the table beside her, and her long hair as thick as a snake seemed to soften in the warm light and pink atmosphere.

Gradually, Madam Sharon looked at the full-length mirror less and less frequently, his head bit by bit, and his eyelids couldn't stop drooping.

The captain restrained Madam Sharon in his dream, and Kenley sneaked in from the front door of the house.

Klein, who was crawling up the wall, left the sight of his two teammates, put his hand into his pocket, and took out a bug.

The bug looked like both a worm and a centipede. It was translucent and dotted with white light spots that flickered on and off.

"I'll ask you to help me later." Klein whispered and gently threw it not far away.

Then, he exerted all his strength and climbed up along the wall.

Under the glove on his right hand, the other glove glowed slightly.

Creeping Hunger, its negative effect is that it must eat the soul of a living person every day, otherwise it will eat the soul of the user in turn.

However, Klein has negotiated with Morien. When Klein uses it up, he will directly send the gloves back to Morien through Wandering Star Borer.

Although Morien charged him a gold pound, after all, after-sales service was provided, so Klein still didn't worry about his wallet too much.

Concentrating his thoughts, he turned over to the second floor with strength, leaned against the wall, turned on Spirit Vision, looked through the window and looked into the room under the crimson moonlight.

Madam Sharon's bedroom is luxuriously and gorgeously furnished. There are thick carpets, a wide space, velvet quilt covers, tables with various skin care products and cosmetics scattered around, jewelry with different brilliance, a half-open dressing room, light clothes and stockings randomly thrown on the rocking chair, and various furnishings inlaid with gold threads.

The most eye-catching thing in the whole room is an unfinished oil painting, which shows the naked Madam Sharon herself. Her brown hair is like a waterfall, and her brown eyes are like the eyes of a deer in the forest. They are pure and moist, but her curved eyebrows, straight nose and delicate lips also outline the charm of a mature woman. The two are blended together in a contradictory attitude, but exudes amazing charm.

Klein only glanced at it and quickly looked away, looking towards the main entrance of the room.

He saw the door handle of Madam Sharon's bedroom turning silently, about to open back.

But at this moment, suddenly, Klein outside the window saw Madam Sharon sitting on the recliner, her alluring body and her smiling eyes looking towards the window.

Madam Sharon was not asleep. He was leaning there, with a slight smile on his lips, looking at the window, and raising his hand to say hello to him with a smile.

Is she still awake? She was not dragged into Dream Infiltration by the captain!

Klein suddenly felt alarm bells ringing in his heart.

At this time, Kenley was about to open the door as planned and use the mirror in his hand to look at Madam Sharon.

Klein's heart skipped a beat. Without any time to think, he kicked forward with all his strength, smashing the window.

This huge noise suddenly spread to the corridor outside the door and reached Kenley's ears, making him realize that something was wrong, and immediately understood that he could not rush in so easily.

Bang!

The sound of broken glass sounded in the room, immediately giving Kenley a warning.

Klein jumped into the room. For a moment, a somewhat trance-like smell poured into Klein's nose, which made him feel a little trance-like, and his body could not help but produce some reactions.

This is the charm of "Demoness of Pleasure".

The invisible charm teased Klein's heart, but he still resisted the strange feeling and met Madam Sharon's eyes, which suddenly became serious and majestic.

Under the glove of his right hand, the flesh-colored glove condensed a golden surface, and there were two golden lightnings flowing in his eyes at the same time.

Mental Piercing!

While releasing Mental Piercing, Klein raised the pistol in his hand, pointed it at Madam Sharon and pulled the trigger.

During this period, there was not even a second of hesitation, not even a little bit of sympathy.

Klein was very lucky today, and he hit the target between the eyebrows with a casual shooting technique.

However, that Madam Sharon suddenly blurred, with spiderweb-like cracks all over its body, turning into a full-length mirror.

The next moment, "Madam Sharon" exploded and turned into mirror fragments all over the ground.

Mirror Substitution!

And Klein suddenly noticed that his body had become tight and not so easy to control. The next moment, his hands and feet tightened at the same time, and he was controlled before landing. It seemed that he was entangled by countless invisible filaments, imprisoning him in mid-air.

The graceful outline was outlined inch by inch by the full-length mirror. Madam Sharon, who had already put on a nightgown at some point, stood out and came to Klein.

She glanced at Klein, and did not look into Klein's eyes again. Instead, she stared at his neck and chuckled, "If the statue hadn't happened to be by my side, I would have been able to fall asleep and wait for you to kiss me awake."

As she spoke, she stretched out her slender fingers and pointed in the direction of the door, black flames condensed on her fingertips.

She had noticed another person outside the door.

This house is full of invisible spider threads, and almost no one can notice it if they are not aware of it in advance.

Kenley broke several of them while climbing the stairs, exposing its existence and position.

Madam Sharon pointed at the door with one hand, and a light blue spear condensed in the other hand, intending to poke Klein between the eyebrows. At the same time, he kept uttering provocative words in his mouth to disturb Klein's spirit.

But Klein ignored her, just raised his head forcefully back, rubbed the index and middle fingers of his left hand, and then released them.

A match lit by his Spirituality detached from his finger and fell downwards, immediately burning through the invisible spider threads around him.

Demoness of Pleasure spider silk is very intolerant to high temperatures.

"Crimson." Klein whispered out loud.

A silver charm hidden in the palm of his right hand instantly became cold, and a quiet and peaceful atmosphere filled the room.

The spider silk was burned, and Madam Sharon's expression became slightly dull.

Sleeping Charm cannot be released close to the face, because this will cause the user and the target to be pulled into Dream Infiltration.

However, Klein has a special ability, that is, he can stay awake when being Dream Infiltration. If it is a dream that is not too powerful, he can forcefully break free.

Klein broke free from the dreamland, tore off the spider silk on his body, dodged Madam Sharon's thrust, and retreated while raising the muzzle of the gun.

Bang!

Gunfire rang out.

Madam Sharon woke up the moment before he fired, and his body moved strangely, avoiding Klein's headshot as if being pulled by something.

She hummed hard and turned her fingertips to Klein while moving.

Whoosh whoosh----

One after another Black Flame shot towards Klein like bullets.

Klein and Spirituality immediately became restless and rolled over quickly, not daring to pause at all.

However, his rolling movements gradually became sluggish, because nearly invisible spider threads from other directions entangled themselves again, slowing down his speed and affecting his movements.

This is simply the nemesis of "Clown"'s fighting ability. Fortunately, Klein has already prepared a large number of matchboxes and several pieces of paper that can be lit.

With a flick of his fingertips, several pieces of ignited paper were thrown out, and the surrounding spider threads were broken.

A Black Flame flew past Klein's face and landed on Madam Sharon's big bed. However, it did not burn and seemed to only affect things with Spirituality.

Klein Before he had time to rejoice that he had escaped the blow just now, another premonition suddenly flashed through his mind.

As a result, he jerked his spine and turned from forward to side roll.

A transparent ice crystal spear suddenly stood out and pierced the carpet, piercing the next position originally planned by Klein.

White frost spread and affected Klein, making him shiver.

So he raised his hand and patted his chest hard.

Silently, a warmth filled Klein's whole body, and holy light emitted from his palms, dispelling the chill on his body and the slight curse that followed.

Kenley also rushed into the room again at this time.

He pushed open the door with his shoulder, paused, observed the situation in the room, and pointed Sealed Artifact"Spirit Medium's Mirror" in his hand at Madam Sharon.

Madam Sharon, who is wearing a translucent nightgown, is chasing Klein at the moment.

She missed with one blow and was about to continue chasing the agile rolling opponent when suddenly Spirituality was touched. When she turned around, she saw a mirror, and saw a mirror facing her.

The water in the mirror rippled, and a woman's figure emerged. Her hair was black and thick, hanging straight down, covering her face.

Suddenly, Madam Sharon seemed to have thought of something, and his expression darkened.

Seven black flames swirled around her and flew toward the mirror.

At the same time, a pale hand stretched out from the mirror, and a figure of a woman wearing a white sheet-like dress quickly climbed out of the mirror.

But facing Madam Sharon, who was already on guard, she was ignited by the black flames and burned to ashes as soon as she jumped out.

Several black flames burned the woman crawling out of the mirror to death, and the remaining black flames flew straight towards Kenley.

Kenley is actually a newly promoted Beyonder. He only joined Nighthawks a few months before Klein. Now he is still just Sleepless of Sequence 9.

His Beyonder Ability gives him good combat power in Evernight, but it is not much stronger than ordinary people.

Kenley quickly covered the mirror in his arms with a black cloth, and at the same time wrapped it around it to protect it. He threw himself sideways to avoid the attack and avoid being exposed to Klein during the roll, or to himself through the large and small mirrors in the room.

Bang bang bang.

Intense gunshots rang out, and Klein fired several shots at Madam Sharon not far away.

He deliberately missed Kenley and waited for him to roll to his side before shooting to avoid accidental injury.

He was really worried about his shooting skills.

It would not be fun if a teammate was not killed by the enemy but was hit by one of your own bullets.

Gunshots sounded, but Madam Sharon's reaction speed was not slow at all.

She dodged and moved among the bullets, easily dodging the Demon-Hunting Bullets that were hitting her one after another.

The front Sequence 9 of Demoness is Assassin. Even Tris in the Sequence 8 period can easily dodge bullets, so how could she not be able to do so.

The bullets flew past her body and failed to hit her once. Madam Sharon dodged to the broken full-length mirror lying on the floor, reached out very quickly to pick up a piece of palm-sized fragments, and then deftly rolled behind the sofa to avoid another round of shots from Klein.

A second later, Madam Sharon knelt down on one knee from behind the sofa and "slid" out with his knees on the ground.

She half-knelt on the ground, sliding nimbly on the ground to avoid bullets. She also used the irregular fragments to shine at Kenley, who tried to cover herself in the mirror again and again, and was the first to let the other party's figure be reflected in the mirror in her hand.

For Demoness of Pleasure, if you want to cast a curse on someone, you don't need to obtain the other person's body tissue, you just need to look into the mirror.

After successfully making the lens in his hand reflect Kenley's face, Madam Sharon dodged while wiping the mirror with the palm covering Black Flame.

Klein, who had a certain understanding of Demoness, suddenly shrank his pupils. He immediately raised his hand and pointed his palm at Madam Sharon. The "Creeping Hunger" under his gloves was dyed like gold.

The next second, holy light fell from the sky and enveloped Madam Sharon.

He wants the curse Purification Madam Sharon is casting.

But this is still a step too slow.

Madam Sharon's curse has been successfully cast.

"Ah!" Klein suddenly heard the screams of his companions behind him.

He subconsciously looked back and saw Kenley not far away holding Sealed Artifact in his hand and stopped. He bent over and began to vomit, spitting out bile, spitting out his bright red heart, spitting out his lungs and stomach that were burning with Black Flame.

The beating internal organs, the yellow-green liquid, the quietly burning Black Flame, and the forward-leaning human body were all reflected in Klein's eyes, and were deeply imprinted in his mind.

Klein's eyes suddenly widened, and it felt like everything around him seemed to slow down.

He clearly saw Kenley's face turn dark purple, with blood vessels bulging on his face, and he saw him vomiting various things.

The Holy Light came again and dispelled part of the curse, but the broken heart and other internal organs would not grow back because of the Holy Light.

Klein felt that his eardrums were somewhat congested. He opened his mouth and seemed to shout something, but he could not hear his own voice.

At this moment, a tentacle poked out of the air.

It was a tentacle made up of worm-like and centipede-like insects, and the surface of the tentacle was burning with white flames.

This tentacle caught the falling internal organs.

Originally, such fragile internal organs that fell without protection would shatter like soft tofu even if they were caught in mid-air.

But Kenley's internal organs don't.

The tentacle relaxed its strength and caught it with light movements like running water.

Then, the tentacle, burning with white flames, slapped inward and slapped the internal organs into Kenley's chest.

The expected situation of entrails getting stuck on clothes also didn't happen.

A "door" immediately appeared on Kenley's chest.

This is "Door Opening" of Sequence 9"Apprentice".

This tentacle equivalent to Apprentice Pathway Sequence 5 Traveler opened the chest of Kenley through "Door Opening" and put back the spitted out internal organs.

Then, the opened "door" closed again.

Perhaps, "Apprentice" is the most suitable Sequence 9 and Pathway as a medical surgeon.

The moment before the "door" closed, several Wandering Star Borer burning with "Reverse Cursed Technique" and a white flesh worm originating from the original "Mr. Z" and a Rose Bishop jumped in together.

The next second, the "door" on Kenley's chest closed again, tightly, without any scars.

Originally, Apprentice's "Door Opening" is difficult to affect the human body, especially Beyonder, because it is difficult to break through the defense of Spirituality itself.

But at this time, Kenley's life was in danger, and Spirituality was also extremely weak. This gave Wandering Star Borer an "opportunity" to take advantage of.

The tentacles left outside moved, and the Wandering Star Borers that made up the tentacles opened their mouthparts one after another. Along with the sound of turning books, which seemed to come from afar, a long chanting sound vibrated in the air.

"I came, I saw, I am Record."

Suddenly, silver lines were drawn out and wrapped around Kenley.

A silver ball appeared and enveloped Kenley, who was pushed backwards.

This is the field.

Wandering Star Mother Bug used the ability of "Scribe" Record to break the field of Morien, using the effects of the field to accelerate Kenley's cell division speed, stabilize Kenley's wounds, and isolate further influences from the outside.

They created a separate "Operating Room" for Kenley on this battlefield.

It is actually very difficult to get into the Record field, as Record is as good as a Demigod-level Beyonder Ability, but it doesn't matter, after all, Morien has enough patience to give demonstrations to Wandering Star Mother Bug again and again, and let her Record again and again.

"Huh----"

Seeing this scene, Klein breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, it was right to seek help from Morien in advance.

Although Kenley was rescued, Klein's anger still rose to the extreme at this moment.

At the same time, a clear picture suddenly appeared in his mind.

The figure of Madam Sharon was outlined from his side, and a dagger burning with dark flames silently pierced the position where he was just now, stabbing his right waist, transforming into "Kidney Slicer", trying to hit Klein's waist.

Madam Sharon is going to attack my right waist!

This is the predictive ability of "Clown" in battle.

Klein reacted without hesitation. He dodged sideways, waved his left hand covered with layers of fine dragon scales, and struck sideways.

As soon as Madam Sharon's figure appeared, he was met by a fist carrying Black Gloves.

At this time, she also saw Klein's eyes turned into golden vertical pupils and the scales spread out on her arms.

Since just now, Klein has used at least three different Beyonder Ability.

Shepherd?!

How could Shepherd be mixed up with Nighthawks!

In a moment of shock, Madam Sharon quickly moved to another direction as if being pulled by something, trying to avoid the attack.

But at the same time, Klein opened his mouth and let out a silent and thick sound wave.

Dragon Might!

Madam Sharon's mind suddenly became confused and his movements stopped in place.

Klein's fist hit her face.

At this time, a clanging sound was heard, and Dunn broke through the window frame and rolled into the room.

He glanced at "Operating Room" who were forming a ball not far away. He didn't say anything more, but raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows.

As soon as Madam Sharon's expression recovered a little, his eyes reflected Dunn Smith, who put his hand on his eyebrows and closed his eyes.

Circles of invisible ripples spread out, and Madam Sharon's eyelids couldn't stop falling. Under Dunn's thin black windbreaker, there were things like venomous snakes squirming one after another.

Knowing that the captain could not hold on for long, Klein raised his right hand and fired at Madam Sharon with a bang, letting the silver Demon-Hunting Bullets pass through countless invisible filaments, shattering her head and body.

As if it was not enough to relieve his anger, Klein's hand kept pulling the trigger until Madam Sharon's body was riddled with holes and was beaten here and there.

It wasn't until the pistol in Klein's hand was completely out of bullets that he finally stopped.

"Ha----ha----"

Klein stood there, holding the pistol in both hands, breathing heavily.

At this time, his hand was empty, and something seemed to be moving under the glove on his right hand.

He knew that it was Wandering Star Borer who took away the glove "Creeping Hunger".

But he didn't have time to think about this anymore.

He turned his head hard and looked in the direction of Kenley.

Seeing that the shell of the field over there had been shattered, Kenley, who had undergone a "surgical surgery", was thrown out from the inside and fell to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Klein took a deep breath and a heartfelt smile appeared on his face.

Great, he knew it would be fine.

He still had confidence in the "professional level" of the Wandering Star Borers, knowing that it was impossible for these Insect Broods to directly throw the injured to the ground.

Since they dare to do this, it means that Kenley has nothing to do with them.

The curse of Demoness was interrupted and dispelled by the holy light summoned by Klein, and the internal organs that fell out of Kenley were stuffed back by the Wandering Star Borers, and Flesh Magic of Reverse Cursed Technique and Rose Bishop were used to take them back again.

Kenley won't even leave any scars on his body.

Kenley fell to the ground and fell into a coma due to the severe pain before.

Dunn hurried forward and helped him up. His gray eyes looked around in confusion.
