Me! Cleaner!.

Chapter 515 Watchdog

? ! ! !
After hearing the notice from the Secret Tail, Leon's pupils suddenly shrank.

Did something happen to Nicole? We've only been apart for less than two hours!!!
"This is……"

Seeing Princess Filia suddenly appear on the ground, Alger was stunned at first, and then he stood up from his chair.

"Reuben's ability failed? Something happened to the director!!!"

"Hold on."

After waving his hand to signal Alger to wait, Leon grasped the only secret tail that might know the situation and asked hurriedly:

"What's going on with Nicole? Where's Chief Scorpio? Were they ambushed?"

"unclear"

Hidden Tail replied:
"About two seconds before I called you, Nicole's emotions fluctuated slightly, and then she called me to tell you to run away, and that was it."

Two seconds?!

Hearing this, Leon was suddenly shocked.

From the moment I discovered something was wrong to the moment I “disconnected”, it only took two seconds? How could it be so fast?
Nicole had a director, a first-level cleaner, and three senior second-level cleaners. Even if they were besieged by three or five true gods, they should be able to hold out for a while, right? How could there be no movement in just two seconds?
'Oh, there's more news.'

Just when Leon was in doubt, Hidden Tail spoke again:

'Nicole told me to tell you that they were ambushed at the Twin Precincts, and just as they crossed the block divider, they came under a barrage of artillery fire.

For some reason, no one except her reacted. No one responded. They were directly hit by heavy firepower. Most of the city block was...'

"boom!!!"

As if to prove the words of the Secret Tail, an extremely violent explosion sounded from a distance, and the entire upper half of the streets of the Korok Kingdom seemed to shake.

'They were all destroyed.'

After finishing the second half of the sentence, the secretive tail, who never spoke unless necessary, took a short breath and then spoke again:

'Nicole said that the other three cleaners died on the spot, and Chief Scorpio's body was more than half destroyed. Then he was looked at by the snake eyes that appeared in the sky, and his soul was sealed in the half-destroyed body.

Although Director Scorpio and she are still resisting, they have already lost. Nicole asked you to ignore her and immediately take Princess Filia to escape from the Korok Kingdom and find a way to contact the Cleanup Bureau for help.'

"understood."

Leon nodded with an unpleasant look on his face, and then, while the connection between the two sides was still going on, he immediately spoke decisively:

"Tell Nicole to yell, 'Director Aquarius is my father, you can't touch me!' Then shut up completely and don't say a word to me again. Unless we speak first, then pretend that we don't have any connection with you!"

'Oh. '

Just as the Secret Tail responded and went to pass the message to the female reporter, Leon quickly relayed the current situation to Alger, then frowned and said:

"This is the situation. Do you have any way to contact the Cleanup Bureau remotely?"

"No..." Hearing that the three Level 2 cleaners had been killed, Alger's eyes dimmed slightly, and then he shook his head.
"In order to ensure that no matter what happens, the news can be transmitted back to the Cleanup Bureau, so the celestial mirror that can communicate remotely has always been with the director, but..."

But this time it was Director Scorpio who was in trouble, and with his body half destroyed, he might not have enough time to use the celestial sphere.

Leon sighed upon hearing this, and did not continue to say anything. Instead, he put the unconscious Felia back on the chair, frowned and thought, while Alger, who was standing by, could not help but speak after waiting for a while:

“Leon, didn’t they tell us to run away? So now…”

"No."

After shaking his head slightly, Leon refused categorically:

"We can't run now, we have to stay!"

"But even the director was ambushed!"

Seeing that Leon was so "hot-headed" at this time and didn't want to abandon his companions and escape alone, Alger admired his courage, but couldn't help but say with a little annoyance:
"The director's men were so strong, but they failed. What can we two do?
The most important thing we should do now is to take this damn princess and evacuate from the Kingdom of Korok as soon as possible to avoid the complete failure of this mission, and then immediately seek help from the General Administration!"

"We can't retreat. If we do, we'll be dead!"

After looking up at Alger, Leon asked back:

"Let me ask you, what we in the Cleanup Bureau value most is to be able to protect this royal family member and prevent the bloodline of the Korok Kingdom from being cut off. Then what do the other party value most?"

"Of course it is..."

Hmm...that's not right!
When he said this, Alger's expression suddenly froze, and then sweat broke out on his back.

The Cleanup Bureau wants to keep the princess the most, so what the other side wants the most is naturally to kill the princess and completely cut off the bloodline of the Korok royal family in order to reduce the effectiveness of the Watch Palace!
That is to say, Princess Filia in the hands of himself and Leon are the top priority targets. I am afraid that when the princess was just kidnapped, someone was already monitoring all the ways out of the Kingdom of Korok. If they evacuate immediately, the possibility of being caught is too high!
"Alger, on the way here, I briefly observed the terrain near the Kingdom of Korok through the porthole of the airship. Except for a large seaport in the west, the remaining three sides are all plains."

After a brief recollection, Leon said solemnly:

"My ability can only confuse the perception within the range at medium and short distances, ensuring that I will not be discovered. However, long-distance observation such as sentry towers can still find us.

In this case, it is almost impossible for us to escape with her, but if we continue to stay in the Kingdom of Korok, it would be like a drop of water in the ocean, and the enemy would not be able to find us. "

"But...if we don't leave, how are we going to inform the Cleanup Bureau?"

“That’s something to think about later.”

After shaking his head slightly, Leon put the Tail of Secret back on Filia's buttocks, handed her over to Alger, and then instructed with a serious look:
"At a time like this, we must first ensure that we don't get caught. After all, only if we are still alive will we have a chance to notify the Cleanup Bureau. Right now we can only hope that they will think that Princess Filia died in an ambush and will slowly relax their surveillance outside the kingdom... Please help me look after her first, I'll be back soon."

"Huh? Where are you going?"

"The Realm of Death."

After sitting cross-legged on the chair, Leon closed his eyes and said:
“After eating the three-headed dog god, I temporarily inherited a small part of its power, and can enter and exit the dead world at will.

And its so-called power of "guarding death" is, to put it bluntly, the gatekeeper of the Gate of the Dead... It has the power to chase back those who want to escape from the dead world, or to stop those who should not enter the dead world. It can be used at this time!"
