Mystery: Mr. Witch and Miss Hunter

Chapter 276 The Fallen City

Adele glanced at Qiao Qiao in surprise, and found that the other party didn't seem to hear.

"Is this also the content of the test?" Adele asked in confusion.

"All you have to do is answer 'yes' or 'no'. If no, please check yes."

"...Then I choose yes." Adele glanced at Qiaoqiao again, "But this question makes me feel bad."

"Are you opposed to police executions of thugs? In front of children?"

"...Yes." Adele hesitated a little, but continued to answer.

"Do you think I won't kill you? If you think I won't kill you, please say yes."

"..."

Adele looked at Qiao Qiao for the third time, but she seemed to be the only one who could hear the voice, and Qiao Qiao didn't notice the abnormality of the outgoing voice at all.

"Yes."

Adele began to feel a little scared.Although she was confident that she would not be killed by the other party, the other party's questions one after another sounded like a gradually tightening noose to Adele.

The other party continued to tighten the noose vigorously, and he was asking questions again.

"Do you like police lights?"

"Yes."

"Would you die for peace? Even at the cost of someone else's life?"

"I don't know..." Adele replied with some pain.

"You can only answer 'yes' or 'no'." It was still a cold mechanical voice, and the pressure contained in it almost crushed Adele.

"Yes……"

"Do you approve of sacrifice?"

"Yes."

After Adele answered these questions, the voice on the phone paused, and suddenly began to ask some ordinary questions.

"Do you think food is eaten as a sacrifice?"

"Yes."

"Do you like a happy life?"

"Yes."

"Do you want people to live happily?"

"Yes."

"Wait, why did it take you so long?"

Qiao Qiao suddenly asked Adele, and then shouted to the people on the other side of the control tower, "Which set of standards are you implementing?"

Although she didn't hear the question asked by the person on the other end of the phone, she realized from her own experience that the reliability testing process was definitely not as long as it is now.

However, the other party did not answer, but speeded up his speech, and quickly asked Adele:

"Do you feel happy when you eat food?"

"Yes." Adele answered more and more smoothly, and she felt that these questions were relatively acceptable.

"Wait, don't answer!"

Qiao Qiao rushed towards Adele and grabbed the walkie-talkie in her hand.Adele dropped the walkie-talkie on the car in a panic, and the walkie-talkie made a sharp sound, and the last question came from inside, which was distorted into a shrill and strange piercing sound by the malfunctioning walkie-talkie.

"Will you bring me joy?"

……

There was a moment of silence in the car, neither Adele, Qiao Qiao nor the person asking the question on the phone spoke, only the sound of the engine roaring.

"...Why didn't you answer?"

"Just answer 'yes'..."

"Say yes!"

The voice of the person on the other end of the radio gradually distorted and roared at the receiver, and then Adele heard gunshots like fried beans, screams and angry curses on the radio, which lasted for nearly 5 minutes.

For a short time, everything returned to calm. The radio terminal seemed to have fallen to the ground. A panting person approached the terminal. It took more than ten seconds to calm down his breathing. Responded:
"...Long live mankind."

There was a deafening explosion sound from behind Adele, and the original magnificent duty center broke down like that, exploding into a ball of gorgeous fireball.

Something spread out from the break, fixing the half of the building in the air, like a bird drowned in the wind.

One after another, invisible things came out of the break, jumped down around half of the building, and used their own gravity to hang themselves on the barbs grown by that indescribable thing.With Adele's vision after becoming a Extraordinary, she saw that many of those people were wearing gray-black uniforms similar to Qiao Qiao's.

The radio blew a final harsh buzz, announcing it as dead.Adele threw the radio on the back seat, but Qiao Qiao didn't stop her.

"It looks like they're winning the battle."

After a long while, Qiao Qiao sighed softly, "However, humans haven't lost yet."

"We are moving towards the hotel. There are other guards there, and other uncontaminated people. We have to guard there, and we cannot let it fall..."

Qiao Qiao became busy again, "During this time, you should first read the rules of duty personnel, and follow the rules when you encounter problems. Of course, the most important thing is to remind each other to read the contents of the last page every hour."

"Okay." Adele stopped talking nonsense, and quickly took the manual and started to read it.

Strange to say, after she came to this strange world, she could immediately communicate freely with the people here, and she could also understand any language in this world.

The content of the code seems to have been deleted and edited many times. Adele saw strange symbols and numbers marked on it, indicating that this code has been revised No.13 version.

I: This code may not be mixed with any code below this version.The remaining codes of lower versions must be destroyed.Please use your own codename only to avoid confusion and unnecessary misunderstanding.

II: The last page is red and blue.Red and blue are acceptable colors for you.If you are in danger, use a light to illuminate the tail page.The paper on the last page is reflective and fluorescent.But don't use this as a last resort.

III: Any items covering the head, wrapping personal items and seized items are prohibited.If someone violates the law, be sure to arrest the other party and hand it over to the interrogation room.Music headphones, hearing aids for the deaf, and medical stethoscopes are exceptions.The night vision device can only be authorized to use at night according to the situation, and please keep it in the debris pile for the rest of the time.

IV: When going out, make sure you have:

A. At least four military flash grenades and two defensive grenades.Magnetic Thermite Grenade can be carried depending on the situation.

B. At least four military high-gloss flares.Officers have the authority to designate field squads to carry more.

C. At least two medical tranquilizers.Try not to use painkillers and addictive drugs.Military doctors need to carry at least ten.

D. At least one portable high-frequency red and blue strobe light and two spare batteries.

Always seek the help of a quartermaster and medic if there are shortages.

V: Destroy any object containing only Arabic numerals.After destroying, please read the content of the last page silently at least once.If you can't destroy it, get as far away as possible and don't look directly at it, record the coordinates and call for airstrike support.Such objects include, but are not limited to:

A. Graffiti, signs, clothing, banners or warning signs.

B. Paper on which numbers are written.

C. Lights, corpses, vehicles, birds, clouds, drone formations, or other items with digital features.

Adele subconsciously explained all this based on her occult knowledge, but found that all of this was so unbelievable.

The existence of extraordinary abilities and extraordinary creatures is not mentioned in this manual at all... In other words, the time of this underground ruins is earlier than I thought, and the original creator did not even appear at that time?

Adele frowned. The characteristics of dangerous existence mentioned in the manual are very similar to high-level existence and starry sky pollution. For example, dangerous numbers have extremely obvious characteristics of spiritual mathematics, and their characteristics are similar to those of the Moss Penance.

VI: The Observatory does not exist.The observatory is not a building of this city.The tall buildings you see are nothing but mirages.You will stay away from the observatory, please be sure to recite this rule silently when you are in danger, the last page can be put on hold only when this rule is executed.

VII: You can get lost when traveling at night.Please stay away from any buildings featuring starry sky features, observatory does not exist, please go to Code VI and repeat.

VII: When on duty at night, it is forbidden to leave persons or limbs outside the vehicle for any reason, except for helicopters.If encountering a creature or entity, proceed accordingly.

Next was the red and blue end page, which recorded what Qiao Qiao just read aloud. Adele glanced at it briefly, and then put the manual in her pocket.

"I've noticed that thing in your hand a long time ago, is it the surrounding area of ​​Assassin's Creed?"

Seeing that Adele had finished reading, Qiaoqiao asked curiously. "It's a bit like Altaïr's Hidden Blade...won't it cut off the ring finger?"

Adele, who suddenly heard someone mention her name before she transformed, choked on her saliva and coughed violently.

"...Uh, of course not."

Adele replied awkwardly, "I always wear it on the back of my hand."

"Your clothes are also weird. Are you playing cosplay? What kind of PLAY is this? A transsexual Altaïr? I didn't expect you to play pretty fancy."

Qiao Qiao glanced at Adele again. The white and red striped cloak on the other side was so visually impressive that it was hard not to think about it.

Adele didn't respond. Although she knew that this world should be the world before the mysterious recovery, without extraordinary power, let alone the potion system, Qiao Qiao's words always made her suspect that her identity as a witch had been exposed.

"We're almost at the Hilton."

In order to ease the embarrassment, Adele took out the translation rules Wendy gave her in her pocket.

"Hey, how old is it, and you still draw maps?" Qiao Qiao glanced over, "I didn't see it, but your writing is quite similar to mine."

"Really?" Adele was quite surprised. After all, almost all of Wendy's notes were written in her own notebook, and the path of the generalist seemed to increase the efficiency of the other party's transcription.

"Yeah, looking at the way Z is written, I always thought I was the only one who wrote it like that."

Qiao Qiao pointed to the Ruen script mark on the map, "But what's the part below, is it some kind of ancient script?"

You may not believe it, it is the text of the future...

Adele complained silently in her heart, but she still followed the other party's words.

"I didn't expect you, Wendy, to be a scholar, and we are still colleagues."

Qiao Qiao sighed, "It's just that I didn't expect that when I was a scholar, I was a colleague, and now I'm a colleague in the duty team... What a twist of luck."

Adele also felt a little emotional, thinking of the real Miss Wendy.

Maybe she and Qiaoqiao will have a very speculative chat... Adele thought to herself.

……

At this time, the real Miss Wendy was sitting on the sand outside the air wall in a daze, staring blankly at the observatory that suddenly appeared.

Although she was very curious about the observatory, considering that the existence of the observatory was directly denied by the people of her time, and the rules of the community repeatedly emphasized that the observatory did not exist, although she had already become an Extraordinary, she did not have any active Extraordinary abilities after all. Even if she had a hundred courage, she would not dare to propose to explore this possibly polluted place by herself.

Tracy stood beside her, looking at her slightly dazed and disappointed.

"What's the matter with you?" Wendy was originally immersed in the melancholy of not being able to explore the ruins of her hometown. However, it was hard not to be aware of being stared at by a Sequence 5 Witch of Pain.

Facing the vicious pirate general, Wendy behaved much more restrained than she did in front of Adele.Although Adele behaved in front of her so much, but compared to Tracy, a pirate general who was rumored to kill people without batting an eyelid, she was simply a moral model.

After all, compared to other pirate generals, "Sick Girl" Tracy was famous all over the continent because of her main business of human trafficking when she first started traveling across the world.In Intis, parents often scare children that if they don't obey, Tracy will take them away and sell them to the southern continent.

Although Wendy, who is only 22 years old this year, would not have grown up listening to Tracy's story, she was terrified by Tracy's deeds at the most sensitive age of eleven or twelve.Although she later understood that Tracy would not sell the efforts of the Northern Continent to the Southern Continent, because it would make no money at all, she still had an instinctive sense of fear for the pirate general.

"Ah, nothing."

Tracy smiled sadly, that smile could be said to make those who heard it sad and those who saw it shed tears. "You look really similar to Elaine, I lost my mind by accident...I'm so sorry."

Wendy, who has been on the sea all year round, naturally knows this gossip between Tracy and Elaine. When she was on a business trip in the Rorsted Islands, she was almost caught by pirates and sent to the Black Death. Lacey did it to her on the spot.

However, Wendy's worries didn't last long, because soon, a figure dressed in black flew out of the Honeysuckle Queen, and the black hurricane that was set off even cut the waves in half.

Behind him was Katerina who was flying at the same speed. The two quickly collided twice in the air, and then the other party didn't say anything, and headed towards the direction of the observatory, while Katerina looked around and landed on the ground. Wendy is beside them.

"Mother, what happened, who is that man?"

Tracy asked hastily.Katerina didn't seem to be injured, but she should have been attacked by surprise, and she was somewhat embarrassed.Hearing Tracy's question, she said bitterly:

"I don't know, but looking at his attire, he seems to be a demigod of the Church of Evernight..."
