Chapter 1354: Chapter 1359: You Are an Undercover Agent

Covered in armor, with head and face wrapped, assembled together just like a person standing in the corner.

A full armor of a Teutonic warrior, a great cross sword, a great shield.

Alright, it’s truly the style of the Teutonic Knights without disguise.

Moreover, Bruno Osmo is wearing a gray suit.

Really undisguised indeed.

Bruno Osmo’s smile was very kind. He truly looked like an ordinary old man, a gentleman, a man of great taste, a kind instrument shop owner.

Yang Yi took a breath, he felt a sense of ritual was needed at this moment. But the problem was Bruno Osmo was too calm, and finding him was too easy. After taking a deep breath, Yang Yi found it hard to create any serious sense of ritual.

So Yang Yi had to say plainly, "I am Poseidon."

"Poseidon?"

This time Bruno was surprised. He looked at Yang Yi, astonished, and said, "You are Poseidon? I didn’t expect you to find this place."

"Yeah, surprised, aren’t you? Uh, you wouldn’t call people in to kill me, would you?"

Yang Yi half-jokingly, half-seriously asked, and Bruno immediately laughed, then waved his hand and said, "Of course not, the fact you found this place means a lot of issues; so... please sit, let us talk slowly, oh, you look very tired, would you like a cup of coffee?"

"Alright, thank you."

Bruno stretched out his hand and smiled, "No need to be polite, coffee from next door is quite good, they will bring it soon. Alright, let’s get down to business. I know you are certainly in a hurry now, right?"

Yang Yi sat down on the chair opposite Bruno. He looked at the nameplate on the table and said, "Hmm, it says Mr. White here?"

"Oh, you are looking for Bruno Osmo, that’s me. If you go to two shops next door looking for me, in the end, you will find yourself here to see me. Hmm, entering different shops to find me represents different sources, but you are different, you came on your own, so, was it Aaron?"

Yang Yi nodded, he was really not accustomed to getting straight to the point so quickly, because he thought Bruno would first talk a lot in circles, ask him many things before entering the main topic.

"Yes, Aaron sent me here, I didn’t kill Aaron, it was Aaron’s very trusted subordinate, named Reggie. This person has been following me to handle things, but he is a cleaner. In the end, we were ambushed by the cleaners, and Aaron asked me to find you before he died."

Bruno nodded and said, "This is different from what we’ve heard, because it was Aaron’s order to find you and eliminate you. He always doubted your... loyalty. Perhaps the word loyalty isn’t quite right, because you defected to us. So, should I say he doubted your sincerity?"

"It doesn’t matter, the meaning is the same."

"Yes, you understand. So did Aaron send any message for me?"

"Of course."

Yang Yi took another deep breath because he didn’t know what consequences the next words might have.

Aaron said a lot before he died, some of which were in secret language, understood only by Grey-cloaked People of high rank.

These words might help Yang Yi achieve his goal, but they could also lead him to utter destruction.

"Holy light shines, darkness descends, revelation, glory, mission, sacrifice, the victory gate opened by the Western Angel."

Yang Yi repeated Aaron’s words completely and in the right order. After saying them, he looked into Bruno’s eyes.

This time Bruno was truly surprised. He looked at Yang Yi for quite a while before finally letting out a long breath. Then he nodded and said, "Very well, bring it out."

"What? Oh, you mean this."

The key item, the cross.

Yang Yi had it with him. He took down the bag he always carried on his back, opened it, and took out the cross from inside, placing it on the table.

Bruno’s eyes were fixed on the cross; for a moment, his breathing paused.

"You know, we’ve been searching for this thing for hundreds of years, and now, it just appears in front of me like this."

After a very emotional sentence, Bruno then extended his hand to take the cross on the table.

Yang Yi reached out his hand and held down the cross, speaking in a low voice, "I want an explanation, a promise. Aaron gave me a promise, but he died, now I want to get a promise from you."

Bruno withdrew his hand, still looking calm and elegant.

"I understand how you feel, it’s understandable. What do you want to know? What promise do you want? You can say it now."

Yang Yi thought for a moment and said, "Aaron said he has a way to heal my partners. Hmm, one is paraplegic, another has lung cancer. I want to know..."

"You want to know if the promise is still valid? Alright, I can clearly tell you the promise is valid, Aaron’s promise, of course, we will keep it."

Bruno smiled kindly, spreading his hands, and smiled, "We are people who keep promises; this is the foundation of our survival to this day."

Yang Yi removed his hand from the cross, but this time Bruno didn’t reach for the cross, instead continued to look at Yang Yi and said, "You know, I’m very glad to get this thing, but I’m even more surprised by Aaron’s high evaluation of you."

"Oh?"

"Aaron was our highest-ranking person on external duty. His role was very important, extremely important. Now he is dead, but he recommended you to succeed him."

"Hmm?"

"Let me explain, holy light shining means this thing; when it’s found, the holy light can shine. Darkness descends means he was going to die, and he of course meant Aaron. Revelation means he found... revelation, which I will explain to you later. Glory means you are trustworthy. Mission is for you to send this thing here. The latter part if you delivered it, sacrifice is a more complex term representing several different meanings. The final line, the victory gate opened by the Western Angel, the Western Angel is Aaron’s... certain identity. Hmm, I’ll simply summarize it for you. Aaron requested that you become his successor, and he believes you will open the victory gate because... he knows you are an undercover cleaner, you have always been undercover."

Yang Yi was stunned, shocked, dumbfounded.

Everything seemed fine before, but why in the end did he become an undercover again?

What kind of joke is this? What nonsense.

Deep breath, deep breath again.

Bruno smiled, shaking his head at Yang Yi, "Don’t be nervous, no need to be nervous. I said the meaning of sacrifice is very complex, but relating it to the sequence of the previous and following words, Aaron clearly indicated you are undercover, but he trusts you, and we trust Aaron because he has never made an error in his life, never made an error! So even if you are an undercover cleaner, it’s okay, we don’t care."
