Chapter 150
In the ivory-white hallway of the Holy Residence, Noah went by the layers of security here as he walked onwards .
The guards saw Noah walking hastily so they wanted to question him, asking why he's here . When they finally identified Noah, none were brave enough to stop him .
Clearly, the guards had heard tails or saw Noah's crazy achievements .
For one, Noah acted as Seitens.h.i.+'s personal guard before and during the sniping incident . He also beat the living daylights out of Yasuwaki and his lackeys who were strutting around like they owned the join . Yasuwaki Takuto got the lion's share of Noah's beatings .
Some guards even saw how Noah going into and coming out of Seitens.h.i.+'s room . From this, rumors arose about Noah's suspicious relations.h.i.+p with Seitens.h.i.+ .
This would also explain why Noah walked away scotfree when he whacked Takuto .
This suspicious rumor would also explain why Takuto got fired despite working years for Seitens.h.i.+ . His dismissal was done with just a single memo .
From an observer's POV, it seems like Seitens.h.i.+ is sticking up for Noah when Takuto unwisely chose to tick Noah off . She did this by dismissing the entire bodyguard squad led by Takuto .
Although the person himself is unaware, he has already become someone feared within the Holy Residence . Hence, n.o.body dared to stop or even question why he's here .
Noah didn't notice this because he's too busy thinking about osmething else .
After Kisara underwent her surgery, Noah and Rentaro stuck around to take care of Kisara . Fortunately, she woke up this morning which took some weight off their backs .
Before Noah can talk with Kisara, his phone rang .
Seitens.h.i.+ called him .
She invited him to the Holy Residence, she didn't divulge any useful information during that call .
Noah can sense the gravity within her tone so he accepted the invitation . He told Rentaro to take good care of Kisara before rus.h.i.+ng over here .
After his arrival, he can tell the Residence is under an intense mood .
There are people here doing their jobs like normal . There are also people with stressed and anxious looks, they couldn't hide their grave expressions no matter how hard they tried .
The Holy Residence is also br.i.m.m.i.n.g with activity .
Officials can be seen rus.h.i.+ng into and out of the office with doc.u.ments . All of them were as tense as the air here .
Something big must have happened, that much Noah can tell .
Noah opened the door to Seitens.h.i.+'s room .
"Guild master Noah . "
The scent of her boudoir entered his nose, tickling it . In it, Seitens.h.i.+ greeted Noah after standing up from her sofa . Her face was cloudy with distress .
Noah raised an eyebrow and he entered the room without caring that it's the private room of a young woman . He sat down opposite to Seitens.h.i.+ and he continued .
"Since it's an emergency, please cut to the chase . "
Seitens.h.i.+ didn't feel insulted that Noah ordered her to make it quick . Noah's firm words calmed her unsteady heart down slightly .
"Alright, allow me to summarize everything . "
Seitens.h.i.+ began explaining .
As the talk went on, Noah's expression turned to shock and then he frowned .
Aldebaran .
That's the name of a certain infamous Stage IV Gastrea .
Noah read what little records detailing this creature, that's why this name rang a bell .
Of the 11 known Stage V Gastrea known as the Zodiacs, three has been slain .
The IP pairing with the no . 1 ranking, the strongest initiator took down a heretofore invincible enemy of mankind, the icon of terror, the zodiac gastrea that led a legion of Gastrea known, the Taurus Gastrea .
The second Zodiac to be slain is the Gastrea known as Virgo, the german IP ranking no . 2 took it down .
The third one was killed by Noah, the same Scorpio Gastrea that Noah reduced to dust .
Aldebaran is a very important member of Taurus' legion . It appeared along with Model Taurus in organized attacks during their rampage .
The legion isn't led by Taurus, in fact, it was Aldebaran who controlled the legion with its pheremones, a.s.sisting the Stage V Gastrea in its rampage across the region . This is how Aldebaran got its name as it is the brightest star in the Taurus constellation, the right-hand man of Taurus .
It's not just because of this that Aldebaran got its name, it had a special ability .
It can secret Varanium-corroding liquid .
The absolute worst nightmare of all humans .
"You're telling me, Monolith 32 got attacked by Aldebaran and got corroded by it . "
Noah raised his head after digesting Seitens.h.i.+'s report .
"The corrosion will be complete in six days and at that time, Gastrea monsters will flood the Tokyo Region and cause widespread devastation?"
Seintens.h.i.+ nodded with a grim look . Then, she perked up and she added .
"The new monolith is already near completion, however, the fastest we can get it here is in 9 days . "
"9 days?"
Noah bit his nail .
"The monolith will crumble in six days but the new monolith will only arrive in 9 days time . Which means, Tokyo Area must withstand legions of Gastrea for 3 days?"
"Soon, news will reach the populace . I can't imagine the chaos it will spark . "
Seitens.h.i.+ said with her hands clasped, she closed her eyes as if praying for everyone's safety . She looked like a heroine in a tragedy .
"The Tokyo Area has underground bunkers that can shelter the populace . But, only 30% of the area's population can be protected . Food supplies will only provide for 2 months of consumption at most . "
If the Gastreas pour into the Tokyo Area, 70% of the population are going to become Gastrea food .
The remaining 30% will find salvation . However, if no help comes in 2 months time, they will similarly die .
They must somehow defend the Tokyo Area from hordes of Gastrea monsters for 3 days while the new monolith is on its way .
"Right now, my subordinates are gathering all the Civil Defense operatives they can get their hands on, buffing up the self defense force . In 6 days time, we will launce our offensive against the invading Gastrea army . "
Seitens.h.i.+ looked at Noah with hopeful eyes .
"Guild master Noah, can you use your bullets to save Tokyo Area?"
Noah finally understood why Seitens.h.i.+ invited him here .
His bullets .
Seitens.h.i.+ wanted him to use the bullets that killed the Stage V Scorpio . Maybe Noah can do something like wiping out the Gastrea horde threatening to overrun the Tokyo area .
Noah chose silence .
A bad feeling rose up within Noah .
