I'm the Mysterious Leader of the Salvation Organization-Chapter 22: Invisible Cloak
Chapter 22: Invisible Cloak
Chapter 22 Invisible Cloak
“Savior?” She was unfamiliar with the term but seemed to have heard about Babel Tower.
There was a sudden pain in her tongue. Maryse covered her mouth to stop herself from crying out. She shouldn’t do anything else weird that would make others suspicious.
Maryse crept back to her room and checked that there was no one outside. Standing in front of the full-length mirror, she spit out her small pink tongue and found a black tower-shaped brand on it.
“What’s it?” Maryse started slightly, then remembered that Babel Tower was the new supernatural organization that broke the rules in public!
She finally froze completely.
“But how? I'm a member of Babel Tower now? Nobody else must ever know about this. The Babel Tower is under fire. All the major powers treat it as an enemy.”
Just as Maryse was reeling, she heard the man’s voice again.
[This is your reward.]
Somehow, Maryse felt her blood was boiling. She almost kneeled down in shock. A gray translucent cloak was already in her hands, but it was also barely visible.
“Is this a relic—wait, a civilization-level relic?”
There were many relics in Noah. Most people with superpowers had at least one piece, but civilization-level relics were quite rare and precious.
Civilization-level relics usually belonged to a strategic-level superpower. There were only two relics considered Civilization-level in the long history of the Augustus family.
Just by touching it, she had large amounts of unknown information that was transferred into her mind, morphed into indescribable words and evolved into information about the Invisible Cloak of Hermes.
“Completely conceals one’s existence. The person who puts on the Invisible Cloak shall leave no traces in this world.”
‘This is incredible! I can be completely invisible after putting it on!’ Maryse brightened.
She felt as if she was dreaming.
‘He gave me a reward?’ Maryse was wondering who he was and how he easily gave her a civilization-level relic.
“Babel Tower…” This new supernatural organization had appeared out of nowhere and broken the old rules, allowing mystery and superpower to return to the public. Babel Tower dared to challenge the absolute hegemony of the DHA, the Queen of the Scarlet Moon, and the Pastor!
Countless people were paying attention to its every move, and she had become a new member of it.
Maryse took a deep breath and clenched her hands. “So stressful! I was almost fed up!”
She felt real fear. If at all possible, she even wanted to quit.
Maryse was a smart girl. She knew that with great opportunity came with dangers of the same level. Her daily life was disgusting and boring, but atleast she could live comfortably due to her family's wealth.
‘Join a mysterious organization and start a dangerous life? Don’t be silly, how could this suit me…’
“Well, it doesn’t suit me…” She muttered to herself, but there was an inexplicable throbbing in her heart.
However, there seemed to be no way to back out. That man could completely control her.
“What should I do?”
Marlys suddenly remembered something extremely important! She unlocked her phone and checked the account of Babel Tower on the video website. As expected, a new video was uploaded to the account!
“Ahhhhh!!!” She was beyond astonished. She thought she was about to be exposed, but she did not notice a faint black mist surrounding her.
That was Cognition Filter.
It started to drizzle outside the window. The library was still full of students that were busy studying for the exams.
Herendor was the best university in Tatsumi. Many students wanted scholarships.
Bai Yan placed a history book back on the shelf and returned to his seat by the window. He took out his phone and glanced at Psychic Dancer’s current status.
Her loyalty was currently only 3, but her mood rose to 7. ‘Was it because I gave her the cloak? Huh, this little girl was easy to fool around.’
“She still has to get the adjustment training.”
It was already a new week. The weekly missions for Babel Tower had been recalculated, and the daily missions had not been done yet.
Bai Yan arranged a new simulation training for Nightsaber and Psychic Dancer.
“Work hard, girls.”
After finishing the management of the Babel Tower, he slowly got up and took out his umbrella. He left the library and took the bus home outside the school. He was already planning to skip class this afternoon. Bai Yan had something very important to do.
He went home, closed the doors and windows, and gulped down an entire glass of ice water.
“Ah, stress.” Bai Yan planned to conduct a long-awaited experiment.
After unlocking the two core operators, as the master of the Babel Tower, Bai Yan also unlocked his initial ability -- Power Possession.
People with Power Possession can capture and dominate the operators of the Babel Tower. Meanwhile, he can transfer the power of the core operators to himself or others.
Bai Yan tapped on the first option on the game interface.
“Savior.”
The interface changed, and a man wrapped in a black robe appeared. There was also a white flash beside him, representing the initial ability that had just been unlocked, “Power Possession.” 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝗼𝐫𝗴
Bai Yan suddenly became excited.
“From now on, everything will be different…”
He had this feeling a few days ago, but it was not until the moment when the superpower was about to belong to him that he could truly feel the joy from the bottom of his heart.
Bai Yan tapped the white flash.
“Activate Power Possession now?”
“Yes.”
“Please select the target core operator.”
A whole row of lists of operators appeared on the screen, but they were almost all grey shadows. Only two of the pixels were colored figures with figures.
He thought for a moment, selecting the more familiar Nightsaber from the list.
“Give me your power, Nightsaber.”
Mu Ling wouldn’t be training in the virtual space for hours, and at that very moment, the beautiful girl was at home enjoying her lunch.
The legendary crime hunting family was already in ruins. Mu Ling and the old butler, Huo Xin, did not have a meal at the long table in the main dining room. Instead, they moved a small table to the side dining room for lunch.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve had lunch at home. Perhaps it’s not so bad to lose the identity in the real world.”
A faint smile appeared on Mu Ling’s face as she looked at the old butler, who was already much older than she remembered.
Huo Xin smiled. The food on the table was sumptuous, all the delicacies had been made by himself that morning.
“It’s my great honor to have you taste my cooking. This roasted chicken took me a lot of effort. Just take it.”
Mu Ling rubbed her stomach and said confidently, “I can finish it.”
“Oh, I almost forget this.”
Huo Xin suddenly remembered something and got up to go to the kitchen to bring over a plate of omelets.
This plate of the omelet was specially made to look like a cat. The tomato sauce painted a cute red smile on the rice.
Mu Ling was slightly stunned. The familiar cat omelet reminded her of the past. Her mother, who had done this for her, was no longer alive.
“Thank you…” She nodded slightly, preparing to say more.
A white pillar of light suddenly descended from the sky and shone directly on Mu Ling. She tried to speak, but she couldn’t move under the weight of authority. In the blink of an eye, she was drenched in sweat.
“What’s wrong? Lady!” Huo Xin rushed over in horror, but the beam easily deflected him.
This force was unshakable.
Mu Ling felt in disbelief that she was rapidly weakening, and it was a very obvious fast, even towards the level of an ordinary person.
To her, who had always been strong enough, there was not much difference between ordinary people and disabled people.
“What’s going on?”
Just as Mu Ling was panicking, she heard a very familiar voice in her mind. [Your power can be given to others.]
‘The Savior? Why? Why did he capture my power? What did I do wrong?’
Mu Ling was even more terrified. She could not guess the true intentions of the “Savior” and knew that she couldn’t change any of the thoughts of the master of the Babel Tower.
Now, she could only wait.
