“Hermits… the Hermits’ Assembly?!”
Kato Nobuo muttered, a look of confusion on his face.
It was clear he had never heard of this mysterious organization.
However, at this moment, he didn't dare speak much.
After all, someone who could arrive in front of him and disable the security of the entire estate.
If they wanted his life, it would be easy.
“We are cultivators hidden in the darkness.”
“We are also those who watch over time in history.”
“The bell of the new era has rung, and we have emerged in response.”
.
Dao Yuan Shun softly hummed, his voice distinctly clear against the silent night.
It gave Kato Nobuo a sense of mysterious uniqueness.
“I don't know what this esteemed one has called me here for.”
Kato Nobuo said cautiously.
Even though his heart was somewhat crumbling, unsure why he was targeted by this mysterious organization.
He might have some thoughts of revenge, but for now, he needed to get through this.
“I need the Kato Consortium to gather a batch of materials.”
“Here's the list!”
“However, the Hermits’ Assembly always operates on an exchange of equals.”
“Take this pill.”
“It will last you for half a month.”
Dao Yuan Shun said slowly, his fingers moving slightly.
A pill transformed into a streak of light, directly entering Kato Nobuo's mouth.
The next moment, Kato Nobuo swallowed it due to the inertia.
Before he could react in any way.
He instantly felt a surge of power throughout his body.
As if he was back in his prime!
Even his previous minor ailments were gone.
A look of surprise and excitement flashed across Kato Nobuo's face.
“Esteemed one, I will have my people get to work on your request immediately.”
Kato Nobuo said with fervent eyes.
He now realized he had encountered an extraordinary power.
One that could potentially give him what he desired.
As the chairman of the consortium, this man hadn't lived enough yet.
“I will return in three days!”
“Hope you can satisfy me.”
Dao Yuan Shun's voice rang out again. Working with smart people was indeed simple.
Then his figure disappeared like a phantom.
This was actually a manifestation of his extremely fast speed.
It cost him a Wind Speed Talisman.
However, the effect was quite obvious. Through his spiritual sense.
He could still see the even more fervent look in Kato Nobuo's eyes.
After this mysterious individual left.
Kato Nobuo finally stepped out of his room.
He also discovered that many of his bodyguards had quietly fainted.
And it seemed to have happened in an instant.
“Maybe this is the power of the mysterious.”
Kato Nobuo murmured, with more awe for this Hermits’ Assembly.
But as he felt the long-lost vitality in his body.
Even a hint of a smile appeared on Kato Nobuo's face.
This feeling was truly something he missed!
There was no doubt that he had to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
To have a connection with an ancient mysterious organization.
Then Kato Nobuo hurried back to his room and picked up the list left behind by the other party.
Looking at the list, none of the things were particularly difficult to collect.
“Within three days, I must gather at least double the amount.”
“Only then can we showcase the value of the Kato Consortium.”
Kato Nobuo decided instantly.
Without hesitation, he immediately started calling his assistant.
Even though it was late at night!
But with his restored vitality, Kato Nobuo wanted to personally urge his group to get up.
This scene was also observed by the Gu Chong left behind by Dao Yuan Shun.
For Dao Yuan Shun, though he had interacted with Kato Nobuo.
It didn't mean he trusted him!
It was necessary to keep a backup plan, otherwise, who knew if the next time he came back.
This Kato Nobuo would set a trap for him.
There was no way around it, the risks of being in the Qi Refinement stage were still quite high.
So it was better to keep an eye on him!
As Dao Yuan Shun waited, he noticed the Mouri family was going out again.
And their destination was Moon Shadow Island.
“Moonlight Sonata!”
Dao Yuan Shun had a deep impression of this episode from his first life.
He just didn't know how Asai Seiji would act.
Especially the evil god statue, it was very easy to induce a dark transformation.
He even had the idea of going to Moon Shadow Island himself.
But then he thought better of it!
After all, with the evil god statue and the Gu Chong following the Mouri family.
He could still observe this event from various perspectives.
At this point, he might as well make more time for cultivation.
Although the world of detective fiction was considered an era of depleted spiritual energy.
But after reaching the Qi Refinement stage, setting up a spirit gathering array was still possible.
After gathering some spiritual energy, he could still cultivate for a while.
It was basically a day of charging, and two hours of cultivation.
Meanwhile!
The Mouri family finally arrived at Moon Shadow Island.
This was mainly because they found a letter in their mailbox, sent by a person named Amao Kei-ji.
And the payment for the hiring had already been sent.
Leading to the Mouri Kogoro family having to make a trip.
