Mystery: Mr. Witch and Miss Hunter

Chapter 330 Goodbye City of Disaster
"The boat is moving again!"

Adele exclaimed, "Can you still use the magic mirror for divination?"

"Yes, yes..." Tracy did not hesitate. Before she put away the divination tools, she prepared another ointment and repeated the process just now.

However, the results obtained by the two were the same as before, and the divination was clearer this time. Adele could even see the name of the ship "Nebuchadnezzar" written in red paint on the side of the ship.

"The target of perception magic has disappeared..."

Tracy looked at the black water polo in the middle of the living room, "This seems to be a warning from the other party."

"I think so too. It's really a bad start." Adele was a little frustrated.

If this is a targeted arrangement by the other party, it means that there is at least one person in the local camp who is at the same level as Tracy or even higher, and only such a person can interfere with the top Sequence 5 disease. Will's divination.

Fighting such a tough battle shortly after leaving the port will not only inevitably lead to battle losses, but it may not necessarily win.

Everyone likes to rob things, but few people would like to be bitten back. Adele doesn't want to, and Tracy doesn't want to.

"Turn off perception magic and divination rituals for one day, the 'Snow Wind' broke down on the spot, let that ship pass."

Adele quickly made a decision.

Anyway, his own ship is strong and powerful, even if a demigod wants to touch the iron-clad ship, he has to weigh it carefully. If he backs down, the other party may not take the initiative to attack.

Although this may allow the other party to leak the news of his voyage and make other transport ships strengthen their guards, it is better than fighting with a demigod here, let alone a strong man whose main ability has not been exposed.

In addition, Adele did not forget that when she was underground, in order to keep the ironclad ship, she used up her luck for the next month. That is to say, in this month, the consequences of every wrong decision she made would be magnified , must be conservative.

"You're very sensible." Tracy nodded with a smile, "You look like a pirate."

……

However, Tracy's praise doesn't make the day's wait any less bearable.

Although the sailors didn't know why Adele did this, they still kept their obedience to the orders as they were originally a navy. Soon, some people went to various parts of the ship to drop the anchor chain, and the "Snow Wind" stopped. .

In order to restrain the restlessness in her heart, Adele ordered the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous dinner. Only today, there is no need to worry about the rules of restraint on ocean-going ships, and taking advantage of the sufficient food supplies on board, hold a banquet as lively as possible.

In fact, this is not entirely Adele's willful move.

Even the navy fleet would have to hold a similar banquet on board before sailing. After all, in the war years, once an accident happened, there was a high probability that there would be no bones left, so no matter how frugal they were afterwards, there would always be such a banquet.

Most of the crew on Adele's original ship were taken away by Emlyn's confidantes to undergo memory cleaning and a series of psychological hints. This time, they failed to go to sea with Adele, and the chef was one of the few exceptions.

This chef is very skilled, and it is one of the most important gains that Adele has obtained from Port of Indo. If nothing else, Adele does not want to change people and ships casually. In this era, this will seriously affect her subordinates. The morale of soldiers.

The other party is also familiar with the rules of the sea, and puts all their energy into preparing this banquet, using about one-fifth of the beef and mutton reserves on the ship to prepare for this banquet, without using any seafood at all—if the voyage needs to be at sea After staying for more than half a year, I have plenty of time to eat those things.

However, when Adele sent Tracy away and went back to her bedroom to wait for the dinner party to start, she found that this matter could not calm her heart down, unless she had urgent business or cases to deal with. Otherwise, just this unreasonable impatience would make her want to grab her hair.

What's wrong with me……

Surprised by her own changes, Adele simply entered into meditation directly, using the meditation techniques she had mastered to make herself fall asleep directly, and prepared to delay for a while.

After becoming a witch, it is not the first time that she has experienced similar mood changes. She has always felt that she has become more sensitive and easily affected by the environment, but this time it is particularly serious.

Hope this meditation works...

Adele drew a holy emblem of the goddess on her chest, hoping that the Evernight Goddess who held the power of dreams could provide her with protection.

Soon, Adele leaned on the table and fell asleep.

However, this is not normal. If you enter deep sleep through meditation, without specific guidance, you will not have a dream, let alone enter a familiar dream again.

After an unknown amount of time, Adele blinked, feeling like she was dreaming.

This is not waking up in a dream after being protected by an Extraordinary from the Dark Night Path, but a common phenomenon. A certain degree of consciousness can be retained in a dream, and actions can be taken to a certain extent, but having the same dream continuously is really annoying. People find it strange.

Look around, surrounded by familiar cities with a sense of sharp opposition and conflict.

Adele saw the small trees growing under the collapsed ruins, the small animals licking the blood on the street, the homeless people warming under the burning street trees, and the gloomy clouds with two qualities of horror and warmth at the same time. I know where I am.

"City of Calamity..."

Adele took a deep breath, and looked towards the center of the city according to her memory.

The towering zelkova tree still grows there, and countless weird air roots spread out from the thick trunk, hanging countless dried corpses.

Knowing what was going to happen, Adele walked towards the zelkova tree. Like last time, she saw the faces of the corpses when the strong wind blew away the clouds.

The last time she just took a look, the dream was interrupted because of fright, but this time she still had a lot of time, so she was able to carefully identify the corpses for a while, and found that the corpses were not all her own.

There was Gagaran's charming face, and there was also a face that Adele didn't know, but it looked equally charming and covered all the charms of women in different periods. Adele guessed that it was Chick.

However, even if Gagaran and Chick are added, it is only a small part of the corpses hanging from the zelkova tree, and more of them are races that Adele has never seen in reality. It is Qiaoqiao in the old world.

Are these disaster believers from the Western Continent?
Adele guessed, and at the same time carefully looked at the faces of those people, and found that although most of them had soft features, their expressions were distorted, as if they had suffered inhuman pain.

It seems that the city of disasters is not so friendly to its followers...

Adele shivered slightly, the city gave her a very bad feeling.

She wanted to go deep into the city, and it wasn't too surprising to find that all the corpses seemed to be turned towards her under the influence of the wind, with their heads lowered, and her figure seemed to be reflected in the empty eyeballs.

At this time, she found that she was still wearing a scabbard around her waist, and the blood eviscer who had removed the umbrella was inserting it.

In the dream, I seem to be able to reproduce the things I owned before...

Realizing this, Adele was a little pleasantly surprised, and quickly tried to reproduce a series of magical items such as "Heart Stealer's Lip Gloss" and "Spirit Summoning Bracelet", and armed herself to the teeth... Well, it's a bit exaggerated, but Armed to the lips at least.

It's a pity that this mechanism doesn't seem to be able to reproduce items that have only been seen or held for a short time...

Adele felt a little regretful. She tried to reproduce the "Twilight Sacred Emblem" she had equipped just now, but after she failed, she replaced it with the magical items used by Sister Vesper, and also failed.

"It's a pity. If I had been more fully armed, I would have dared to push over..."

Adele made a joke to herself.

It is impossible to push flatly, the witch cannot do this kind of strenuous work... However, it is not fake that she is fully equipped:
At this time, Adele was wearing a brass ring "Otilus' Paradox Ring", a diamond-studded "Spirit Calling Bracelet" on her wrist, and in her pocket was the "Heart Stealer's Ring" given by Miss Justice. Lip Gloss" and the "Messenger Harmonica" given by Mr. "Star", the "Bleeder Dagger" hung on the waist, the sharp "Survivor's Hidden Blade" was tied on the forearm, and the ruby ​​necklace "Rose Heart" was hung on the On the chest, with a pistol full of extraordinary bullets in one hand, it can be said to be fully armed.

--What?Why can the "Heart of Rose" be summoned?

Don't ask, it's dowry.

It seems to be Adele's illusion. Seeing that she did not go further, but stood on the edge of the city to manifest magical items and add benefits to herself, the expressions of those corpses showed a little dullness.

However, Adele didn't care about this, and even felt that these preparations were not enough. She simply reproduced the citrine pendant suspected to be from "The Fool" on the other hand that was not carrying a pistol. Under the watchful eyes of the hanging mummy, he started divination directly to confirm whether he would be in danger if he continued to go deeper.

I don't know if it was because of the delay in the dream or the owner of the pendulum was also shocked by Adele's caution. The pendulum paused for a while before it began to rotate clockwise. The range was large, but the speed was still normal.

What does it mean?
Adele frowned. After all, she was not a full-time fortune-teller, and she lacked a kind of spiritual inspiration for the interpretation of similar results, so she could only interpret it based on experience.

Could it be that the result of the pendulum divination this time means that if you explore by yourself, you will encounter serious dangers, but the dangers encountered in the dream will not affect reality?

Suspiciously, Adele did a divination to confirm this conjecture, and she was relieved when she got an affirmative answer.

However, as soon as she was relieved, she felt more and more that she who was operating on the sidelines just now seemed to have that serious illness...

Ahem, this is called caution, caution!

Adele corrected the words in her heart with some embarrassment, relieved her heart, and walked to the inner part of the city.

Despite its majestic appearance from the outside, the city's structure is surprisingly simple:
The whole city is crossed by the north-south and east-west avenues, and is divided into four major blocks. On the central square is the huge zelkova tree, with aerial roots extending from each branch.

Except for the north-south and east-west avenues, all the roads in the city have no bends at all, dividing the inner city into one after another almost identical small squares, and all the roads only have right-angle bends.

Among the small squares, there are houses with strange styles, some with gorgeous glazed tiles and cornices, some with simple and incomplete roofs; some are tall and bright, and some are as low as a doghouse.

Countless buildings that have nothing in common are forced to be installed in exactly the same square area, which can drive architects to death, but it shows an amazing unity.

That's right, in such a city, the outer city looks like a perfect circle, so round that people don't even need to see the whole picture, they can perceive it subjectively from the senses.

From the perspective of mysticism, we can analyze a series of nouns such as personality differences, regulatory oppression, and overall effects. The related nouns are probably "army", right?
Adele analyzed it in her heart, and couldn't help but marvel at the exquisite layout of this city.

Of course, she did not stop when she sighed, and continued to walk towards the zelkova tree in the center of the city.

Then, her eyes suddenly froze, because she saw a building here that surprised her and took it for granted.

There is an old sign on the brick wall full of age, but the words on it have changed from "Red District Telegraph Office" to "Pinxi Port Telegraph Office".

Adele only hesitated for a while before deciding to go in and see what happened.

The reputation of "The Fool" is still very good, and he should not deliberately mislead the divination options, which means that no matter how miserable he dies here, it will not affect reality.

——In that case, why bother?
Adele stepped forward gracefully, and then kicked open the door of the telegraph office, causing the door leaf to come off the loose leaf and fall from the door frame.

In the telegraph office, Melanie and Paavo Court obviously paused for a moment, obviously they didn't expect anyone to dare to enter the door so arrogantly.

"Hi, may I ask, yes, what's the matter?"

Melanie froze for two seconds before speaking in the weird tone of pauses that Adele had heard once before.

"What was the origin of that telegram you sent me last time? Who instructed you to do this?"

Knowing that she would not really die, Adele didn't show any signs of politeness at all. She knocked down the pipe in Paavo Court's hand with one shot, and didn't feel sorry for the consumed spiritual bullets.

Anyway, it's in a dream, why not have a good time...

However, as the smoke cleared, Adele saw the bodies of Paavo Court and Melanie, and found that their heads had already been twisted abnormally, and they were facing her with their backs.

"You, you can, yourself, take a look."

Melanie's voice sounded, and an incomprehensible and indescribable scene appeared in front of Adele's eyes, which made her suddenly lose consciousness and wake up.

The noise of the sailors came from outside the door, and the most clear phrase that the half-asleep Adele heard was "there is a ship coming".
