Chapter 671 Disguise
?Agent Axe was startled by Vale's question. But he quickly smiled and shook his head.
"That would be incredible if it's true... But only the Directors and the Councils would have that knowledge."
Vale just smiled knowingly after hearing this. Nevertheless, he decided not to comment about it anymore.
Soon, they reached another room and Vale could already sense that the Branch Director was inside. With his Divine Sense, he verified that he was indeed a Half-Spirit just like what Agent Axe said.
'So they're not using any anti-inspection artifacts or spells, huh...' Vale thought as he realized that his Divine Sense could scan anyone in the building.
Agent Axe then declared their arrival. After some confirmation from the other side, Agent Axe opened the door and signaled to the Branch Director.
"Sir... Immortal Vale and Miss Lisa, this is our leader, Director Aries..." Agent Axe said as he gestured to the Director, who was already standing up to greet Vale.
Since he was facing an Immortal, the Branch Director didn't dare to ignore him and quickly approached Vale to shake his hands.
At this time, Agent Axe already left the room as he allowed them to have privacy.
"I am honored to meet the great Immortal who had recently closed the gate of the Abyss Realm…" contemporary romance
As the Director said this, a device was triggered in his finger. He then secretly injected the needle into Vale's palm, hoping to drug him and make him unconscious!
But he made a mistake!
Vale had sensed his attack and dodged it at the last moment. He also pushed Lisa away from the needle, as the Director tried to throw it at her! Although Lisa could probably defend from that, it was better to be safe.
Indeed, Vale had actually felt a surge of killing intent from the Director in the last second!
He sensed that the Director was hiding something and that he was not a friend.
He instinctively activated his Shadow Divinity and prepared himself to attack…
"What are you up to? I feel a hostile aura from you just now but it quickly disappeared…" Vale curiously asked as he also confirmed that this room was isolated by a Formation Art.
On the other hand, the Branch Director was shocked by Vale's reaction. He knew that that was his best chance to eliminate him… Unfortunately, he underestimated the Immortal's reaction speed.
Haa~
The Director could only sigh as he realized that his disguise had been exposed and that his plan had failed.
"I don't really feel comfortable with this skin…" Director Aries muttered as he pulled off his skin, and just like that, his body started transforming!
It was such a morbid sight, and Lisa couldn't help but step back.
"So you're not the Branch Director?"
Vale was shocked to see this as he realized that he was dealing with someone capable of eluding even his Divine Sense!
The Director had no choice but to reveal his true identity and fight back…
"You're too smart for your own good, Immortal. I want this to end quickly but I guess I'll have to kill you personally…"
As he said this, he completed his body transformation and revealed his Demonic Form!
"You're right, I'm not Director Aries. I'm a Demon Saint, and I'm here to feast on your Divinity. No--You're a rare and valuable specimen, and I won't let you die so easily!"
The Demon Saint had three horns on his head, dark and heavy armor on his body, and a bone spear in his hand.
Vale immediately realized what was going on.
His opponent was one of the Demon Saints who had invaded this world through the gates, and he had infiltrated the Bureau and risen to the position of Branch Director.
Perhaps, he had been waiting for a chance to strike the remaining Immortals of this world, and he thought that Vale was the perfect target.
Without waiting for Vale's reply, he then lunged at him, aiming to pierce his heart with his spear.
"Die, Immortal. Your Divinity will be mine."
Vale dodged his attack and counterattacked with his Stormbringer Sword... The attack was so quick that he didn't have the time to access his Spell Models..
Nevertheless, with his Phantom Sword Technique, he was able to draw his sword and attack his opponent.
"You're dreaming. I'll kill you and make sure you do not escape to the Abyss."
Vale then engaged in a fierce battle with the Demon Saint, who seemed to have greater combat skills and faster than any previous ones he had faced.
The Demon Saint used his Corrupted Divinity and his spear skills to try to overpower Vale, while Vale used his Shadow Divinity and his sword skills to defend himself.
Boom! Boom!
They exchanged blows several times…
They fought with all their might, not caring about the damage they caused to the room or perhaps even the building.
'This Demon Saint had a massive Corrupted Divinity… Not good…' Vale realized a problem after a few exchanges.
Unlike the previous Demon Saints he fought, the one in front of him had a fully Corrupted Divinity in his arsenal! This was probably staying here in this realm for a very long time!
In the meantime, Lisa watched the battle with horror and awe.
Although she's a Vampire, she could tell that this battle wasn't something she could meddle with.
With that in mind, she swiftly broke the Formation Art that was sealing their actions within the building!
It's not that she wanted to spread the chaos, but she couldn't let Vale become a victim here once he killed the Demon Saint disguised as a Director.
Furthermore, she believed that this matter should be handled by the Bureau as well!
Bang!
As she broke a part of the Formation, she was able to open the door and realized that Agent Axe was still outside…
"Are you also a Demon Saint? No, I'll interrogate you later." Lisa said as she planned to suppress the Agent.
"What? No!" Agent Axe said as he looked at the situation. He realized that the Branch Director was missing and Vale was fighting against a Demon Saint!
