Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 254 The Wool

"Indeed, it seems that behind the establishment of the 'Air Pollution Investigation Committee', there may be many nobles like Earl Hall pushing for it. The outside world believes that the committee and the subsequent environmental protection bill will weaken the power of the traditional nobles, so they and the emerging There will be a protracted struggle among the factory owners, and now it seems that the bill may be implemented faster than everyone expected, and I have to make some preparations."

Servilia took a sip of coffee and said slowly.

"Preparing?" Angel asked curiously, "Are you asking me to inquire about Hibbert Hall's actions just to give your industry a ride and make a fortune with them?"

It's not that she thinks getting rich is bad, but she feels that such a secret sect uses extraordinary people to investigate the actions of nobles just to make some money, which is somewhat inconsistent with their status.

"This is of course the mission of the cult, with orders coming directly from the 'Lady of Despair'."

Servilia's face straightened and she answered without hesitation.

"However, you can indeed get a share of the properties left by Baron Langdon. This does not conflict with the mission." She changed the topic and raised the corners of her mouth slightly. "Next, let's talk about your reward. This You have done a great job on this task, and you are worthy of being my favorite new member. In two days, come to my place, and I will prepare the other half of the main ingredients for the potion for you."

After getting some information, you are going to reward me with extraordinary materials worth thousands of pounds. Is this considered hush money?Or is it to win over me and establish your own power within the sect?

Angel thought to himself and asked casually: "What about the complete formula? The main extraordinary materials alone cannot make a magic potion."

"This will be handed over to you after you have completely digested the 'Witch' potion and accumulated new merits, lest you act impulsively and take the next series of potions before digestion is completed, and lose control and die." Vilia smiled and said, "You are an important member of us."

Important member?I think he is a chess piece who can contact Audrey Hall and get first-hand information, right?
It seems that we still need to find a way with Ms. Laura, so that the Witch Sect doesn't know that I have the formula, and Laura doesn't know that I have prepared the ingredients, so they all think they can continue to hang me, unknowingly I stripped all the wool...

Angel picked up his cup of coffee and drank it in one gulp, hiding the slightly upturned corners of his mouth. He inexplicably missed the Xishan coffee he drank in the afternoon.

……

When leaving Servilia's house, the sky had already darkened. Over Backlund, behind the hazy fog, a perfect red moon gradually rose. The blood-colored light penetrated through the haze, dyeing half of the sky. The color is charming.

"Another full moon has arrived. Before I knew it, I had been in Backlund for more than a month, and I finally saw the hope of being promoted to Sequence 6..."

Looking at the moon hanging high in the sky, Angel felt that this color seemed familiar.

----

The new week has arrived, and Angel can only continue to be a "divination witch" in the divination club while waiting for the gatherings of various extraordinary people. Fortunately, the role of "witch" is over, and she no longer has to fight against her conscience. Breaking up lovers who only have some discord and misunderstandings with each other.

If he knew Laura's address, Angel, who was only one recipe away from the "Pleasure Witch", would probably be tempted to come directly to her door. Unfortunately, the information purchased from the "Brave Bar" did not include this woman's home address. , she had to sit back and wait in the club, waiting for Laura to come to the door on her own.

"This is the first time I've seen you smile so genuinely."

When Laura Swann came to the divination room, Angel welcomed her with a warm smile, which attracted ruthless ridicule from the other party.

"It seems that you should gain a lot from Hibbert Hall."

Laura, who was wearing a beige dress today, put down her wide-brimmed sun hat, sat across from the divination table, picked up a deck of tarot cards on the table, and said while shuffling the cards quickly with both hands.

Angel did not hide anything and told this lady the information he had discovered and the conclusion he had analyzed with Servilia last night.

After listening, the latter unconsciously cut the tarot cards with his hands, his eyes wandered, and he fell into deep thought. "Strange, it sounds like not only the upper-class nobles, but even the Witch Cult are paying attention to Backlund's environmental issues." After a moment, Laura murmured to herself, and a card fell out of her hand, which was facing up. The "Fool" card played made Angel feel nervous.

"I didn't expect Earl Hall's family to be so far-sighted. It's no wonder that a family without much inheritance can climb to such a high level. But the nobles have their own industries. It's understandable that they want to seek benefits by setting up an investigation committee and raising the threshold of the industry. That gang of gangs When did the witch who spreads disasters become obsessed with environmental protection?"

After commenting on the situation at the top of Backlund, Laura looked at Angel who looked expectant, smiled slightly, took out a note from her handbag, and handed it over.

"Look, I will keep my promise, unlike those guys in the Witch Cult who lie endlessly."

Angel took the note and looked at the densely packed small words on it.

"Sequence 6, joy.

"Main materials: One silk gland from an adult giant widow spider, and a pair of eyes from a seductive banshee.

"Supplementary materials: all the remaining hair of the Enchanted Banshee, 10 grams of powder ground from Fenebaud flies, 5 grams of real mummy ashes, 5 drops of black datura juice, 100 ml of pure water."

Sure enough, there are silk glands from an adult giant widow spider. Compared with the main ingredients given by Servilia, it seems that there should be no problem with the formula. Of course, I will definitely have to verify it through divination later...

After quickly jotting down the formula, Angel carefully folded the note and put it away, breathing a sigh of relief, but then she began to worry about the ingredients for the potion.

Different from low-sequence potions, the auxiliary materials in the Sequence 6 formula already include some hard-to-find spiritual items, such as the hair of the enchanting banshee, which obviously needs to be obtained together with the banshee eyes in the main material, and She just saw the name of a creature like the Banshee for the first time today.

"Can you provide these extraordinary materials, including primary materials and auxiliary materials? I can pay the corresponding fees."

After hesitating for a moment, she still chose to ask this "experienced person", and even brought the main materials she had already obtained to avoid the other party becoming suspicious.

"This is your own problem," Laura seemed to enjoy Angel's troubled expression, her lake blue eyes showing excitement, "Fly powder and mummy ashes are relatively easy to obtain, provided you don't buy fakes. , but there are not many wild succubi left, they are almost all controlled by the witch sect, and their eyes and hair rarely enter the market."

"The giant widow spider is distributed in the forest in southern Intis, close to the central plateau. It is relatively easy to obtain materials."

Having said that, she changed the subject.

"But you don't have to worry too much. I may be able to help you get these materials. The premise is that you continue to investigate the trends of the Witch Sect. What things and people they are interested in, or what they are planning. Maybe you haven't digested it yet. After finishing the 'Witch' potion, you can get some of the materials."

Sorry, I've finished digesting it...

Angel thought secretly.

But why is this "Pleasure Witch" so interested in the movements of the Witch Sect?

If he were a defector from a certain organization, he would probably stay far away from them, wishing that he would never have anything to do with them for the rest of his life, but Laura's current behavior seems to have an inexplicable hatred for the Witch Sect.

With this curiosity, Angel looked at Laura who was sorting out the tarot cards. The latter felt this gaze and looked back with a trace of melancholy with her lake-blue eyes.
