Carefree Path of Dreams Chapter 667 Secret Agency

Amidst a jungle outside the small village.
A few people, who were wearing tight attire and dressed like adventurers, were looking on silently at the scene of the Pitch-dark Shield adventurer team arriving at the village's entrance.
"Have we confirmed our target?"
The leader was an adventurer wearing a Taoist robe and was currently attentively staring at a crystal ball in his hands.
"We can confirm that the other party is within the village!"
Two warriors at the side instantly bowed.
Their body's disposition was astute and capable but was incompatible with that of adventurers; instead, it seemed to belong to the military.
"That's alright then. Has the nearby giant wolf been captured?"
The old sorcerer continued to ask.
"It's been captured. It's a Flame Wolf and has swallowed at least three people. It was restrained with our magic skills."
There was a large wooden cage at the side, and a prone giant wolf was actually lying inside it, the entirety of its skin resembled a flame.
"After a while, use the flame crystal nucleus on it and incite it to attack the village."
The old sorcerer spoke slowly without a trace of compassion in his thoughts, as if all the people in the village became useless expendables in his eyes.
"For us humans and for the realm, this is a necessary sacrifice!"
The warrior leader was similarly uncaring and spoke approvingly.
Glancing at the people who were bustling about, the old sorcerer lowered his head and looked at the crystal ball in his hands.
Through the bright sphere, he could see a young silhouette inside, which was actually an image of Luhn.
The old sorcerer looked on silently, and a gleam flashed past his eyes.
"At our current stage, where we have long known about the existence of the realm and other planes… Foreign species of animals aren't rare in our realm, but a completely new 'mutant,' that has appeared for the first time, must still be thoroughly monitored for the safety of our realm and the supremacy of the human race!
"This 'Luhn,' according to our intelligence, he had previously survived despite suffering from an injury that he received from being stabbed through the heart, and he's likely to be a "Descender" or is related to a Descender!
"Our task, as a secret agency, is to exterminate all hidden threats!"
Unfortunately, the source of this intelligence was just a baron, and the higher authorities had never paid so much attention to it.
Furthermore, this type of information, that pertained to people from other worlds, cannot be put on the table for discussion. That's because currently, within the main realm, there were also countless races and breeds that came over from the migration of external planes.
Hence, all business that must be carried out secretly is only done by their people.
"If we can confirm the Descender and discover and conquer the plane behind him, then not only the realm, but our organization will also obtain great boons!"
The old sorcerer looked at the giant Flame Wolf that was beginning to transform and silently thought, Exactly! This secret agency is a group made up of the most supreme race, or they can be said to be the most supreme beings of the realm, who believe that this realm can only conquer other planes and is an extremist force that finds it best to view all other non-human races as lowly slaves.
Needless to say, this type of view still received a certain amount of support. Hence, it has operated for a long period and has achieved a certain amount of progress.
This time, they've come forward to investigate Luhn after obtaining intelligence from a few channels.
Ahwhoooo!
While the old sorcerer was in deep thought, the animal, which was originally a giant wolf, swallowed the crystal ball, and its body shape already became like a small mountain. It suddenly looked towards the skies and growled, letting out a loud howl, and it charged towards the village while under control by spirit magic.
"Hmm?"
This earth-shattering movement made not only Fang Yuan, but Lantil and Gohn noticed it as well.
It was only after clearly seeing the attacker, Lantil's eyes widened.
"This is… the Flame Wolf? How does it have such a physique?"
Even though it was an ordinary wild beast, the larger its body size, the more horrifying its destructive power was. Even though there are slight differences between demon beasts, they're mostly the same.
At this moment, even he himself as a warrior was a little frightened by the giant wolf.
"It can't be, I've seen the footprints of the attacking wolf, and they weren't as large as this one's physique…" Gohn mumbled with his face full of incomprehension.
He immediately saw the giant wolf suddenly open its mouth as it was ran and shot out a streak of bright flames.
"That's not good, quickly take cover!"
Lantil jumped forward and pinned Gohn down, tumbling a couple times awkwardly on the ground.
Kaboom!
A loud explosion rang out and flames shot out in all four directions while soil splattered everywhere. The village doors and fences instantly turned to rubble and flames sporadically burned.
Furthermore, a few unlucky militiamen and even the adventurers were affected by the explosion, and they were instantly vaporized without any trace of their skeletons.
"This is… a really horrifying demon beast, how did it appear here?"
Lantil crawled up and instantly saw the small mountain-like giant Flame Wolf, and his whole body froze in shock.
A demon beast of this level would definitely be hung up on the high-level quest board of the society, and a dedicated team entirely comprised of Extraordinaries must be dispatched to encircle and suppress this beast, instead of someone like him with an adventurer team that was only led by a warrior who were definitely not a match for it.
"No… I can swear… the demon beast that previously disturbed us definitely wasn't as large as this!"
Despite how experienced Gohn was on the battlefield, he was jabbering while he witnessed this scene, and his eye sockets looked like they were instantly going to split.
That was because after destroying the fences, the giant wolf relentlessly charged directly towards the village.
Like a reaper, the militia's leather armor tore easily like paper under its sharp claws, while a few other villagers were unable to avoid it in time and were bitten by its fiendish intersecting teeth with a "Pila!" sound. Blood instantly splattered everywhere and only a few sporadic remnants landed on the ground.
"Team leader, what do we do?"
The archers who were fortunate enough to survive looked at the corpses of their companions and the demon wolf who was wrecking havoc, and they asked as their eyes lost a little color.
"What to do? Naturally, we get revenge for our companions!"
A small and weak glow radiated from Lantil's body, which was a reflection of him transferring his inner body fighting spirit till its limit. "I'll draw its attention, and you're responsible for shooting. Also, Gohn, immediately assemble all of the warriors… If we cannot defeat it, we will all die!"
As an experienced adventurer, Lantil had already seen it.
This giant wolf isn't attacking the village for food, but a mere desire to inflict massive destruction.
Very evidently, if they're unable to eliminate this giant wolf, it will definitely kill everyone at the scene!
The hunting skills of the werewolf race cannot be underestimated, not to mention this type of extraordinary demon beast from the nearby mountains and forests. Not even Lantil has the confidence to avoid getting killed by it.
"How to say this, after all, I'm just a warrior. Even though I'm of the lowest level, it shouldn't be much of a problem to withstand a few claws."
Lantil tightly held onto the boxing gloves in his hands, but he didn't much confidence.
…
"Why… You don't have the heart to do it?"
On top of the mountain, the old sorcerer looked at a subordinate whose eyes were twitching slightly, and he suddenly asked with a smile.
"No… Your Excellency, I only feel that using a giant wolf infused with 'Implication' and 'Berserker' magical techniques to attack a village would be creating a mountain out of a molehill…"
That soldier shook his head. "Why don't we arrest him directly?"
"Laurad, have you forgotten the 'Punishment Battle' in the organization's history? The royal families of various countries are all very sensitive…" The old sorcerer shook his head.
Early on, in the beginning, there was a rule in the pledge between the mainland royal families that forbids every method of illegally capturing and imprisoning members of the royal family.
Luhn, as of this moment, had already received the inheritance documents and is now a knight successor, a true member of royalty!
Once an outsider finds out that this clandestine agency had secretly arrested a member of royalty, it may immediately result in a major uproar.
A few entire organizations were originally nearly obliterated in the "Punishment Battle," which was caused by their reckless act of arresting a member of royalty. Even though it was finally proven that the member of royalty was actually a parasite, their method still sparked animosity and ultimately caused the incoming crisis.
From that point onwards, the secret agency would still act once they meet their target, but they have more sophisticated methods.
"Everything is for humans. It's too bad that some people still do not understand…"
The old sorcerer spoke with a saint-like expression, "To protect our realm, if there's a need, I will unhesitantly sacrifice my entire life!"
At that moment, many rays of light appeared in the crystal ball in front of him. It was actually a scene inside the village.
"Let me see what secrets you actually hold…" the old sorcerer mumbled.
In reality, foreign living beings were prevalent within the Monger Realm, and logically speaking, he shouldn't have been so surprised at such a trivial thing.
However, for a secret agency such as them, they were looking for those abnormal Descenders who each mostly hold a great secret that represents harvests from another plane. Hence, even legendary powerhouses and churches would trade with them!
At the moment, the only way for an ordinary person to become a deity was for the hunting plane to obtain a reward from the realm!
With such a huge boon, the continual existence of this secret agency could be understood then.
It was only because of the fact that there were far too many foreign races, that they had no choice but to currently continue their business in the dark, so they could justify their actions on the surface.
"We just need to confirm the other party's abnormality! We can then write a full statement to the royal family's parliament and the Grand Duke of Stan to switch over to an official arrest!"
The old sorcerer stared at Fang Yuan, who was walking out, as if he just seen a precious treasure.
The other party at the moment was only a suspect. If it was confirmed, then his treatment would be vastly different.
…
"Hmm?"
Fang Yuan, who was inside the village, instantly felt that something was amiss.
"Someone is monitoring me? And… the appearance of this giant beast is a little too coincidental!"
He already knew that there must be some sort of problem here, even without using his spiritual intuition to detect it.
"Could this be the heaven's will again, for this to progress till this stage?"
Fang Yuan felt that ever since he traversed over, nothing was going smoothly.
After going through one crisis, he was instantly torpedoed into another new crisis.
This taste of being schemed against had secretly made him instantly lock onto the mastermind!
"At the moment, the messenger… should be trying to investigate my 'abnormality.' My concealment technique can withstand the tests of the pastor, Hess, and it's also a lucky charm!"
Just from using the confessions of the two dead people, they're basically unable to ascertain anything about him.
Fang Yuan regained his attention and leaned against the door, watching the battle between Lantil and the giant Flame Wolf.
At the moment, a wave of extraordinary power was circling around the body of the burly fellow, endlessly providing enhancements, causing Fang Yuan's eyes to shine. "Isn't this fighting spirit?"
