Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 477 Fear of Fire and Reply

"The lights and candles have been put out. You can come up now."

Angel leaned against the side of the boat and whispered down.

After a while, "The Hanged Man" Alger carefully climbed up the rope ladder. His eyes quickly scanned the deck and found that except for the moonlight, there was no firelight that he was extremely afraid of. Then he turned over the side of the ship and returned to himself. The "Blue Avenger".

The moment he stepped on the deck, he used the authority of the captain to command the ghost ship to extinguish all the lights on the way from the upper deck to his captain's cabin, and then his tense back and limbs relaxed.

So this is how I behaved under the negative effects of the "Magic Pocket Watch" before... Angel suppressed the corners of his mouth, made a serious expression, and looked at Mr. Hanged Man, who had been in a state of "fear of fire" for twelve hours.

Although Klein next to her was expressionless, his eyes fell on Alger with interest. Angel guessed that if everyone were not all believers of Mr. Fool and had cooperated just now, he might try Light a fire and play the role of a defiant, crazy adventurer.

There were only a few sailors around staring at their captain curiously. Before leaving the Blue Avenger, this powerful "navigator" still had a calm expression on his face, as if he was accompanying his two employers on an outing, but now there was fear in his eyes. , the smelly blue liquid covered his shirt and face, curling up slightly like a hamster.

"Go back to your posts. We will set sail and leave here in five minutes."

Alger ordered with a sullen face, and quickly drove the sailors off the deck. After all, the sailors' real "jobs" were only to clean the interior of the cabin, and cook and wash clothes.

Seeing the sailors leaving one after another, Alger handed the bag containing the black giant spider's head to Angel, spoke very fast, and then ran away without looking back, and quickly left the deck.

"No, you are different..." Klein finally couldn't help laughing, "At least I will never try to light a fire to scare you."

Klein, who was holding back a smile on his face, wanted to hide but didn't dare. The muscles in his waist were tense, preparing for a fierce attack, but Angel only touched him gently and retracted his arm, even taking a few steps back. Stay away from each other.

But I always feel that this ghost ship is watching our jokes. Isn't it still snooping... Angel glanced at Klein and suddenly lost his interest in joking.

"The feathers are relatively dry and can be stuffed into a bullet box. After being sealed with a spiritual wall, they will not react with the container... The extraordinary characteristics of the giant spider are all concentrated in this pair of compound eyes. They must be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise they may end up with The head mutates together and becomes some kind of weird sealed object that can spit out fire on its own... The poison glands are usually useful as well, so keep them together."

"Have I been like this before?"

The ship's hull suddenly jumped forward, and the masts, decks and even the ship's planks below made overwhelming creaking sounds. The entire ghost ship accelerated on its own without any intervention from the sailors, and left this place in a graceful arc. Pristine island.

"So you really tried to scare Mr. Alger... No, no, are you mentioning what happened that night?"

Angel suddenly realized that Klein was alluding to the night he killed the "Apostle of Desire", his expression changed, and he reached out and stabbed him in the waist.

----

Looking at the other person's back, Angel murmured.

Hum, let you laugh at me... Angel was very happy in his heart, and was surprised at the other party's restraint. Just as he was about to continue "testing", there was a strange noise above his head.

She secretly used the ability of "joy".

"We... we'll talk about the distribution tomorrow. I'll go back to the captain's room to start the ship and leave here."

As if someone was making a harsh laugh, Angel looked up suddenly and found that the three sails on the three masts of the "Blue Avenger" that had been rolled up were swaying and falling on their own, and the thick cables were tied like long snakes. On the fixed frame, the canvas is tightened, the horizontal sail is adjusted to the angle, and it is swelled in the night sea breeze.

After serving on this ghost ship for several months, most of them have become masters of poker, and half of them have mastered how to shine their boots in three minutes.

The smile on his face disappeared in an instant, and his cheeks gradually turned red. Klein leaned forward slightly to hide the changes in his body. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but held back at the last moment. He just turned sideways silently and spoke. He pulled at the hem of his windbreaker.

"Hu, hu, hu."

Klein explained in a low voice, holding the meat cleaver borrowed from the sailor, carefully prying the head of the beheaded black giant spider, and removing its pair of compound eyes.

Angel stuffed twelve crystallized feathers of the Blue Shadow Falcon into a small bullet box to build a spiritual wall and seal them temporarily.

In addition to the feathers, one-third of the fruits of the psychedelic wind chime tree and the compound eyes of the black giant spider will be given to Alger. Their value is still unknown. I am afraid I can only wait until next Monday's Tarot meeting to ask other people. Since his collaborator was now supposed to spend twelve agonizing hours in the dark captain's cabin, Angel decided to meet with him tomorrow to discuss how to divide the two trophies.

Fortunately, the feathers left behind by the two extra Blue Shadow Falcons are equivalent to two main materials for Sequence 6 "Wind Blessed". According to Angel's experience in Backlund, they should be sold for more than 3000 pounds.

Even if the "Gazeer" was not found in the end of this journey, the income alone was worth the fare... She lamented the huge profits from "robbing homes", and the last trace of guilt towards Lanying Falcon's family was extinguished by the gold pound. .

Then, she picked up the pair of compound eyes that had just been dug out of the bristle spider's head and were still stained with some mucus, and found that they had adhered together under the influence of some magical power, forming a slightly small pair of eyes. The big eyeballs, with the tiny single eyes inside, reflected the faint candlelight, as if there was still life left.

Through contact, Angel discovered that this extraordinary material could be used for basic purposes, such as projecting fireballs or flame spears. This made her more certain that it belonged to the Sequence 7 or Sequence 6 potion material of the "Hunter" path.

"Perhaps it can be sold to Elaine or Daniz... Well, if Daniz knows the formula of Sequence 6, you can exchange this material with him, and then give the formula to Elaine..."

She chuckled and said to Klein who was wiping his hands. She also used the wall of spirituality to seal the spider's eyeballs. She has a much more powerful cursed black flame, which can be used in conjunction with her invisible threads, cursed attacks and other abilities. Throwing fireballs in combat isn't interesting.

Finally, she held up the translucent, fist-sized psychedelic wind chime tree fruit, and discovered that by holding the fruit and inputting spirituality, she could use the "hypnotic" ability of the wind chime tree to a limited extent, but with little effect. It is not clear that she intends to search for targets on the friendly ship to try.

Maybe...

She glanced at Klein, who was still looking a little strange and rosy next to her, and gave up on the "evil" plan in her heart.

Otherwise, he might have to spend the night in my room tonight... Angel carefully put away the fruits, put this pile of extraordinary materials worth more than 5000 pounds into the cabinet at the innermost side of the room, and locked it.

"puff--"

The moment the cabinet door closed, a black shadow flashed out from inside, passed over her head, and landed on the table behind her. Klein, who was looking at Angel's back, was startled and jumped up from his chair.

The candlelight in the room was automatic without wind, and the light was dim and unclear. It seemed that the ghost ship was trying to block the invading spiritual creatures again, but failed miserably again.

"It's Ms. Windsor."

Angel stepped forward and tried to pet the soft-haired black cat, but the cat nimbly dodged it. He dropped the letter, flicked his tail, and slipped back into the spirit world in front of the two of them.

When the water ripples connecting to the spiritual world disappeared, a faint "hum" was heard.

It seems that it really used divination to find Laura... Angel took the letter, opened it and read it quickly.

"Long time no see, Miss Eileen, I believe you, like me, also use a false name.

"Yes, I do have a relationship with Catalina Pellet. To be precise, she is my mother, and Tracy, who has become 'Lieutenant General of Disease', was once my brother.

"I also want to apologize for lying to you before. I did not 'betray' the Witch Cult, but never joined them. Among the mother's descendants, the males will be given the 'Assassin' potion when they reach adulthood, and join their In the team, women like me will be raised by my mother and will not be allowed to take the path of assassins.

"But when they gave birth to me, they inherited a small amount of extraordinary characteristics for some reason. Therefore, I was born as an 'assassin' and could only choose to continue on this path of potions. She did not force me to join the sect, nor did she force me to join the sect. I was not restrained too much, and it was not until Tres, my brother, showed qualities that she deemed worthy of cultivation that I was free and escaped from her.

"Of course, my opposition to the Witch Sect has nothing to do with it. It is purely a personal grudge. If you are interested, I will tell you when I return to Backlund. But please don't worry, as long as your goal is also the Witch Sect, I will always be with you. stand together.

"Finally, your Sherman is very talented. He has finished digesting the 'Assassin' potion. I am going to arrange a task for him to assassinate a member of the Gnostic Society alone in the near future. The 'Instigator' potion and' Acting will be rewarded."

Sure enough, Laura, like Tracy, is a descendant of the "ageless" witch Katarina, but the "mother" she refers to is not the same person? Could it be that...their "father" was transformed into a woman by a magic potion and became a "mother" after being united with Catalina?

And Tracy, like Triss, was originally a male... No wonder she still likes women and insists on capturing Elaine... No, I was also a male originally, but now...

Angel handed Laura's reply to Klein, and his mind was filled with the confusing parent-child relationship of the Pellet family and his own "difference".

But now that she has this kind of relationship with Klein, she can't leave him alone... She secretly looked at Klein and found that he was focused on the letter in his hand and didn't show any strange expression, so she relaxed. Take a breath.

In his eyes, I should be a "female" witch. After all, I joined the Nighthawks and was an "assassin" when I met him. Moreover, he didn't know that my identity was forged. Only the Hanged Man and Justice knew about it. thing, and they didn’t know Klein who had not joined the Tarot Club... Angel secretly comforted himself, suppressing the guilt of concealing his identity, looking at the gradually fading redness on Klein’s face, and thinking about whether to give him another chance. "Poke" the previous one.
