Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 422: Clever but mistaken

In the early morning, it is the quietest time in the city of Bayam. The late-night carnival travelers have gone to sleep, and the morning work has not yet begun. The streets have fallen into dead silence, and even the sparse gas street lights have dimmed.

In the sky, a huge carpet seems to be blown by the wind, floating swaying above the street. It is peacock blue, larger than a common four-wheel carriage, and has mysterious and strange patterns on its surface.

On it, there are more than ten people standing or sitting. Most of them lack expressions and stand in a stiff posture like dead people. However, there are five people with different expressions and they are observing this "flying" in different directions. Street scene below the blanket.

"Ahead, a little to the left, we are almost at Xiangshu Avenue."

A man with a thin face, black hair and green eyes said that he is Squall, the think tank of "Iron" Maiviti. He is good at controlling his emotions, calm and even a little cold, so he is called "Calm Squall". "You" is worth 1500 pounds on the reward list.

Sitting at the front of the flying carpet was "Bloody Thorn" Huntley. He was responsible for controlling this magical carpet. He nodded after hearing this. Without any movement from him, the flying carpet carried a large number of people. Turned a corner and went down.

He took out a black handkerchief, shook it, and turned it into a black curtain, blocking the flying carpet's whereabouts. From a distance, they had merged with the night sky, and it was difficult to spot them unless they looked carefully.

Sitting in the middle is "Iron" Maiviti himself. He has dark skin, thick lips and tight lips, and his hair is curled up like beads on his head.

"Did you see the 'flames'?"

He asked in a low voice, his muscles bulging and his whole body filled with a sense of power.

"Not yet."

Another Beyonder replied casually, his eyes fixed on the street below.

The five of them brought a team of living corpses and puppets, and rode a "flying carpet" to come here overnight, in order to capture the fourth boatswain of "Vice Admiral Iceberg", "Blaze" Danitz, and replace "Blood Above" "Signor" asked the whereabouts of the Death Key.

The news that "Fire Flame" was hiding on Xiangshu Avenue was provided by a pirate captain who was greedy for money and tried to take part of the 3000-pound bounty. The other party received the task of inquiring about "Steel" from Daniz, but betrayed him. He directly went to Senior Quinn, Senior Intelligence Officer in Byam, and sold Daniz for 1000 pounds. This is and his contact point.

Of course, Maivity had no intention of paying the 1000 pounds, but it was not appropriate to cause trouble at the moment, so he only placed the dark blue-haired pirate under house arrest and did not kill him for the time being.

Regardless of whether the information was true or not, he was not prepared to spare the other party's life.

The flying carpet stopped on the top of a big tree next to Xiangshu Avenue. Under the double protection of night and camouflage spells, the occasional passers-by did not notice that there were more than ten people floating above their heads.

They waited quietly like this, changing their surveillance shifts from time to time, looking at the street below and the safe house belonging to "Blaze".

It wasn't until a reddish light appeared on the sea level in the distance and the sun was about to rise that Squall, who was on his third shift of tracking, discovered a sneaky figure on the roof next to the street below.

He perked up and took a closer look. He saw that the other person was wearing a black woolen coat and Bayam's common peaked cap. He was climbing nimbly between the roofs of the houses. Under the rising sun, next to the brim of the hat. The exposed blond hair and signature burnt eyebrows are undoubtedly what everyone has been waiting for.

"He showed up, it's him!"

Squall shouted in a low voice, waking up some of his drowsy companions. Several of his heads moved to the edge of the flying carpet, watching the vigorous figures below jump over the rooftops and quickly reached the top of No. 15 Xiangshu Avenue. went up, looked around for a while, then climbed up the chimney and got in.

The expected prey has appeared, but the five people did not make any move. They just continued to watch quietly. Under the control of Maiviti, the zombie puppets on the flying carpet stood on the other side to balance their weight. For a moment, There was silence on the flying carpet.

Below, several other figures emerged from other buildings, kicking open the door of No. 15, or breaking the windows. Some even climbed onto the roof, followed Daniz's route, got into the chimney, and entered the room one after another.

They were local adventurers and bounty hunters who were deceived by the news spread by Squall. There were only two Extraordinaries among them, and they were still the lowest Sequence 9. Most of them were just speculators who wanted to take advantage and take away part of the bounty. .

Normally, this group of people bundled together wouldn't be enough for Daniz to hit him with one hand, but the news they got was that Lie Yan had been seriously injured and was like a movable vault, waiting for someone to take it away. At this time, they naturally moved forward bravely. .

After waiting for a moment, the calm Squall frowned.

These figures entered the house, but there was no sound. Even if Daniz regained his strength, it would be impossible to deal with so many people without making a sound.

He looked at his boss. There was no expression on Steel's cold face, and his thick lips moved:

"Get down to the roof, and we'll go into the house together."

He has already wasted a lot of time in Bayam. If he can't get the information about the "Death Key", he won't be able to explain to Admiral Blood. The only clue is right in front of him. He must be caught no matter what. live.

The flying carpet rose swayingly from the tree crown, floated towards House No. 15, and began to slowly descend under Huntley's command. The pirates above stood up one after another, gearing up and preparing for battle.

At this moment, a soft but majestic voice came, reciting an ancient Hermetic command that could not be resisted:

"Flying and floating are prohibited here."

what?

As soon as such a question came into everyone's mind, the flying carpet under their feet softened and folded as if it had lost its support, and it fell downwards with a human body weighing more than a ton in total.

----

Seeing the "flying carpet" falling to the ground like a stone and the silhouettes of people emerging from it, Angel didn't waste any time and immediately switched to the herding soul of the "Rose Necklace". Lava seemed to gush out of his eyes, and a filthy demon spit out from his mouth. Slang vocabulary:

"Slow!" An invisible ripple spread out with her as the center. "Steel" Maiviti, who was the first to emerge from the flying carpet that fell to the ground, bore the brunt and fell into a state of sluggishness.

In his eyes, Angel, who was already extremely fast, seemed to be approaching with an afterimage, and the "Good Luck" pistol that had already opened the hammer in his hand erupted into a ball of gun flame that was far better than an ordinary revolver.

He subconsciously hardened his skin, preparing to use his steel body to resist firearm attacks.

"call out--"

The sound of bullets penetrating the air rang in his ears. The "mad dog" Dali behind him had just struggled to climb out of the flying carpet, and his head exploded like a fragile watermelon, sprinkling red and white all over the living corpse next to him. .

Her target is not me...

The "slow" effect faded, and Maiviti finally reacted.

His movement and thinking speed returned to normal. He stepped out with his thick right leg, and cold ice quickly spread out from the sole of his foot, which quickly extended forward under his control.

In such a cold, except for Maiviti and his puppets who are "living corpses", all living creatures will be affected.

But the blond woman in front of her didn't care. She continued to walk forward step by step, and stepped on the ice. The coldness on the ice became even worse, spreading more than twice as fast, and even turned around and rushed towards the flying carpet.

No, that's not me...it's her controlling the ice!

Knowing this, Maiviti no longer tried to waste his spiritual energy to compete with the opponent for control of the surrounding ice. Instead, he used his strength on his feet and rushed forward to close the distance with the opponent and give full play to his physical combat and defensive abilities. The advantages.

Behind him, the puppets under his control also jumped up and rushed toward Angel in various stiff and weird postures.

Squall and Huntley originally wanted to attack with him, but it seemed that due to the influence of the extreme cold around them, they began to cough non-stop, suffered from cramps in their abdomens, and fell into various states of illness.

Manipulating ice, disease, and beautiful appearance... Squall forced himself to calm down despite coughing and dizziness, thinking quickly, and quickly determined the most likely sequence of the other party's potion.

"Sick Girl, Tracy!"

He shouted to remind Maiviti that although the second officer's think tank did not know the specific sequence of the "Lieutenant General of Disease", he still made a rough guess based on the extraordinary ability in front of him.

What? Lieutenant General of Disease? But I have seen her, and she is completely different from the person in front of me...

Maivitina's brain, which had become somewhat sluggish due to anger and fighting spirit, quickly reacted. Squall was referring to the opponent's sequence.

The same sequence as "Lieutenant General of Disease"?

His forward stride slowed.

The living zombie puppets behind him who had already received the order to attack did not hesitate like him, but maintained their previous actions and rushed forward. However, the target they chose was not Angel, but a copper whistle that appeared on the ground at some unknown time. .

"Ow—"

Like vicious dogs pouncing on their food, the puppets rushed to the ground to grab the copper whistle that was absolutely attractive to them.

The next second, a ray of holy light fell from the sky, covering these puppets huddled together. The long-dead flesh and blood burned and melted under the purifying light, and quickly lost its vitality.

"Daniz" with golden light on his left hand and chest opened the door of No. 15 Xiangshu Avenue and walked out slowly. His blond hair quickly dyed black, his dark blue eyes turned brown, and his face squirmed and deformed. In front of everyone In front of him, he turned into a crazy adventurer with cold eyes, Gehrman Sparrow.

It turns out that the money-hungry pirate captain and the "flame" who fell into the trap are all traps... We are the real prey!

"Steel" As soon as this thought flashed through Maiviti's mind, the fake Daniz's brown eyes in front of him emitted two white rays of light, which struck into his brain like lightning, causing the soul hidden under the steel body to burst out. severe pain.

"Psychic piercing!"

Klein silently recited the name of the extraordinary ability given to him by the soul of the "Interrogator", and watched Angel wave his hand with the bone sword, bypassing the rough-skinned and fleshy "Steel" Maiviti, and attack other pirates who were infected with the disease and were slow to move. Rush away.

This is their long-established battle plan. Klein, who has herded the souls of the "Interrogator" and the "Priest of Light", is responsible for dealing with the Sequence 6 "Living Corpse" Maiviti, who is difficult to be harmed by physical attacks and is not afraid of siege. Angel is in charge of the other pirates.

This is called "specialization in the arts", well, that's not what Russell said.

A cruel smile appeared on his lips, and the "squirming hunger" in his left hand shone brightly with the sun's rays.

"Holy light!"
