Ke-style law enforcement officers

Chapter 615 The Enlightener

In the latter half of the night, the shadows in the corner of the banquet hall had completely dissipated, but the members of the Silver Twilight Club remained prostrate on the ground, not daring to get up for a long time.

Of course, for Lonnie William, who is disabled, he actually wanted to get up, but his physical condition did not allow it.

After the gathering ended in a relatively bloody but peaceful manner, Sanford held a secret meeting all night, claiming that it would be the day the Silver Twilight Club had come closest to the truth of the universe.

...

"It's the end of the world, no, I prefer to call it a grand celebration, a grand celebration!"

Lonnie Williams had completely lost the restraint and composure he displayed during the banquet. His hair was slightly disheveled, and his body language exuded excitement, perfectly embodying the state of a scholar who has achieved a major accomplishment or made a new discovery, a state that is a mixture of reason and madness.

"The prophecy is true, everyone, and the prophesied era of grand celebration has arrived. All the rules of our time are about to collapse, and what awaits us is an era filled with storms. You may not have heard it, but Mr. Sanford certainly did, right? What did those in positions of authority in the corner of the banquet say? They said, 'Be our witness!' We are the witnesses!"

"Gentlemen, we have wasted far too much time. All our past research and exploration have been futile and confusing. We have collaborated with the kin of a certain god, and with cultists at Miskatonic University and Blychester University, and sometimes we have even fought against them. We do not serve any particular deity. Sometimes I wonder, what is the purpose of all this?"

"It's chaos itself, isn't it, gentlemen!?"

"In the past and in the future, no god is worthy of our ideals and lives. Only chaos, the sole mystery of this universe, is worthy!"

"Those two superior beings guided us, and they allowed Sanford and me to briefly glimpse a corner of the world after the Chaos invasion. Believe me, it was an absolutely beautiful sight. The silver twilight finally descended upon this land one day, and it was breathtakingly beautiful."

"This is the real enlightenment."

"Everything we have done in the past has finally come to fruition. The confusion and bewilderment in our hearts have finally vanished on this day. The grand ceremony is real. It will be an era of chaos, an era where destruction and rebirth coexist."

"The two who descended upon the banquet, with their sky-covering wings and fiery arms, I could sense that they were not ancient gods, nor could they be compared to lowly slave races. They were gods of a new era, great beings born for this grand celebration."

"They are enlighteners."

"Gentlemen, the era when Silver Twilight did not serve any deity is over. We will become faithful followers of the Enlightened One, who will guide us into the Age of Chaos!"

"We will accept the guidance of our enlighteners."

...

One member of Silver Twilight asked, "What did He guide us to?"

"The source of the Blood Moon is the offspring of a deity named Mego. We must find him and worship him as our true god, because his biological father, the Blood Moon, will bring madness and annihilation to this era. Only by obeying His will and helping Him find Mego can we find a way out of this chaotic era."

The high priest Sanford, who had remained silent until now, finally spoke.

...

……

And so, relying on the intimidating power of Yan's giant chicken wings and a tiny bit of illusory vision from the abyss world, Milo brought the Silver Dusk Hut, an evil cult that never served any ancient gods and existed only for chaos, into his possession.

Perhaps only when one's own life level is above the existing order can one experience the feeling of brainwashing a group of intelligent people effortlessly.

This is probably what the Scarlet Witch meant by faith plunder.

From this day forward, any instructions given by Milo will be treated as divine decrees and carried out by the Silver Twilight Club.

Including the one where you search for Mei Gao.

Silver Twilight possesses an extremely wide network of relationships, with its influence extending to almost every aspect of high society. Its core members also control a well-trained private armed force. Although assassins of this caliber can at most bully the investigators at the University of Michigan who are not good at fighting, weren't the infamous hunters in the colonies also made their way up from executioners?

What are you thinking?
You don't think I'm trying to build a hunter team like Raven, do you?

Even if that were the case, we shouldn't pick these dim-witted heretics.

So what do you think I want to do?
you guess…

……

"I'm a little confused about what you're up to."

On the way back, Yan also raised a similar question. Clearly, he hadn't figured out Milo's intentions for doing those things on the island for the time being.

As for Yan himself, becoming a deity worshipped by a certain cult has no real significance for him. Because of the existence of the path of blood feud, Yan's power growth has virtually nothing to do with faith. His power comes from resentment, and he takes a completely different path from the vast majority of the world's superiors.

"If you want to find Mei Gao, why don't you just let the law enforcement team look for him, or I can help you look for him; that might be more efficient," Yan continued.

“No, no.” Milo shook his head: “Where Meg is is no longer important, understand? His arrival was destined, and the meaning he represents is the real key.”

"What's the significance?" Yan asked, a cigarette dangling from his lips.

“Megau is the source of chaos, and chaos refers to the conflict between order and chaos.” Milo explained leisurely, “Wait half a month, or maybe not even half a month. Then we’ll see what Nanwei City is like, and you’ll understand what I mean.”

"Is it just the plundering of faith? Sometimes I feel that you guys live a really tiring life." Yan didn't think too much about it. He just sighed and said, "Isn't the path of blood feuds simpler? Inciting hatred in others is what I'm best at, maybe the only thing I'm good at."

"Speaking of which, have you really forgotten who Aya is?" Milo suddenly asked.

Yan blinked, seemingly searching his mind intently, before finally shaking his head:
"Did I drink myself silly? I have absolutely no recollection of it, but... hearing this name always makes me a little sad. Isn't that a bit strange? I don't know why, hehe."

"Never mind, don't overthink it."

"Exactly, why think so much? It's useless."

……

...

The following day, many "new faces" appeared on the wanted posters in front of the four law enforcement offices in Nanwei City, the law enforcement headquarters, and the law enforcement offices in other towns outside the city.

These new wanted posters feature portraits of antique dealer Carl Sanford and heretic scholar Lonnie William.

These two are the leaders, along with a series of members directly under the Silver Twilight Lodge Club.

These arrest warrants were not printed and posted by Milo's orders. The conviction of Sanford and William was determined by the chaotic order from the abyss, a variant of the law enforcement order originating from the will of Holsas.

why?
This is probably similar to the relationship between the undead Milo and Eta Doyle in the Abyss world.

The law enforcers of the conscious world are equivalent to the undead in the abyss world.

And the Silver Twilight Hut is Eta Doyle.

This is how the conflict between order and order came about.

However, neither side in the conflict was aware that the power of faith they offered was ultimately given to the same person.

Holsus's replacement in the lucid world, and the enlightener mentioned by Silvertwilight Hut, are both Milo himself.

……

Late at night, Milo sat alone on the railing atop the clock tower of the 23rd parish in the south of the city.

A few months ago at this time, he was the only one facing all the dark inhabitants inside and outside Nanwei City at night, but now it is obviously much more lively.

The law enforcers and the followers of Silver Twilight engaged in a bloody battle in the shadows of the night.

In addition, a new profession has emerged – bounty hunters. They come from all walks of life, such as retired soldiers or black market thugs.

Every time a piece of emerald crystal obtained through exchange is crushed, it signifies the death of someone in the Silver Twilight faction, representing the evil side.

However, the Enlighteners will bestow blessings upon Silvertwilight—chaotic knowledge from the great evil tomes.

Thus, in an era free from the shackles of fear, elements such as spiritual vision and power flourished and thrived amidst carnage.

Those who once wandered alone in the shadows, trying their best to maintain a moment of peace, have now become the creators of this chaotic battle.
