Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 510 Life hangs on a thread

"Someone is spying!"

Angel, who was crouching using "invisibility" next to the dock, heard the call and activated his "disease" ability without hesitation, letting the invisible pathogens spread among the crowd with the breeze blowing to the sea.

Of course, as the "pain" witch, she can control the target and spread of the disease. At this time, it is very simple to distinguish the enemy from the innocent - just let the disease only infect men, and the bound slaves are all young, Beautiful women will not be harmed by this.

Then, she retreated silently, silently moving away from the "Crazy Captain" and his guards and sailors. At the same time, she deepened the "invisibility" effect, trying to avoid the search of the hooded and cloaked man.

But the next second, Angel found his body appearing in the intertwined light of the evening sun and moonlight.

Her "invisibility" has failed!

This was not due to a confrontation with some extraordinary ability, but as if she had lifted her invisibility on her own.

In an instant, all eyes focused on the Miaoman figure that suddenly appeared.

"Flame Jump"!
Angel, who had already prepared a backup plan, did not panic, activated the ability of the "hypocrisy" ring, and jumped to the position of the lantern she had already placed deep in the jungle.

This weird ability reminds Angel of a soul that Klein's "Creep Hunger" recently grazed, "Smooth Talker" Misor King.

"Shh-"

The idea of ​​deepening the "invisibility" and the action of "flame jumping" backwards just now were "distorted" by some kind of force!

Her figure jumped out of the flames, frightening "Finger" and "Crazy Captain" who had just finished the transaction, their eyes widened, and they subconsciously stepped back.

She divined in advance and arranged everything at this joint location in advance, so she would be able to do it without any mistakes.

This seemingly simple "touch" turned into an unstoppable blow under the "amplification" of the mysterious power. It hit Angel's arm at an extremely fast speed and shattered her fragile body into illusory fragments. .

It was a weird face with completely distorted facial features and skin, making it unrecognizable.

Klein shared the information about his magical item without reservation, which allowed Angel to get a glimpse of some of the abilities of the Sequence 6 "Corrupted Baron" of the "Lawyer" pathway, which is the "Black Emperor" pathway, and one of them has a similar effect. "distortion".

After a brief moment of consternation on both sides, Angel took the lead in stretching out the "Sword of Dawn" and slashed out with the bone blade, aiming directly at the hooded man's neck.

Even more surprised than them was Angel who was suddenly behind bars.

Obviously, both parties were disguised. Angel did not waste the ability of the "hypocrisy" ring. Before the action, he made himself into "Lady Pan of Desperation" who was related to human trafficking and disappeared without a trace in the Backlund smog. Nadia, and the cloaked man who recognized her was obviously not comfortable showing his true face.

But the melee attack that was sure to succeed in the past was now out of focus. Angel's intuition was blurred, and the bone blade she held in her left hand turned to one side and slashed between the two sailors without causing any damage.

No matter what disguise he made, the position of his head would never change.

"Desperate Nightingale!"

"boom--"

Concealment becomes exposure, escape becomes attack...

At the same time, the hooded man stretched out his black-gloved right hand and pushed towards Angel, as if scolding her disobedient hand, and lightly patted her on the shoulder.

Of course, understanding the current situation does not mean that you are out of danger. At this moment, Angel flashed through the flames and came to the crowd almost recklessly. However, her "disease" had not yet fully taken effect, and she was surrounded by enemies. Even his "true face" was revealed.

But after the flames surged and engulfed her body, the flames that exploded and expanded were not prepared by her, but a lantern in the hands of the sailor next to "Crazy Captain" Connors.

The cloaked man who had just discovered Angel's prying eyes and protected the "Crazy Captain" behind him exclaimed, raising his head slightly under the hood, allowing Angel to see the face below.

The "flame jump" in the completely opposite direction made her realize something was wrong.

The hooded man turned his gaze without any surprise and looked at the beach not far away, where a shaking figure appeared. It was Angel who used the "mirror stand-in" to avoid the blow.

Before she could stand still, the man took a step forward, crossed a distance of tens of meters, and stood in front of Angel again. He gently waved his arm and patted Angel's waist horizontally.

Similarly, this "amplified" attack hit Angel like a heavy hammer. She had just used a mirror stand-in and had to replace herself with the wand she carried to withstand this heavy attack. Snap, the black wooden stick that was broken into several pieces by a punch spun and flew out, and Angel's figure appeared not far away again.

Using "Stand-in" twice in a row, Angel consumed half of her life-saving items, but she also achieved her goal - she approached the prepared lantern again and could "jump in flames"!

"Teleportation is prohibited here!"

The hooded man "commanded" in a low, distorted voice. With one hand, he pressed an iron pocket watch that appeared in his palm at some point. The other hand reached into his cloak and took out a strange-looking gun with six thick barrels. Giant pistol.

The deep, rough muzzle of the gun was aimed at Angel, whose body was filled with flames but did not move.

"Ah-"

The six-barreled pistol roared in despair, bullets ready to go.

But the next second, the target in his eyes disappeared.

Angel's figure was so abruptly erased from the beach, from the front of the hooded man, from the sight of "Crazy Captain", "Finger" and all the sailors and slave girls.

This strange dream-like scene made the hooded man who was sure of victory in the battle briefly stunned. He aimed a gun everywhere with one hand, held the iron pocket watch tightly with the other, and said loudly:
"Invisibility is prohibited here."

You could hear needles dropping all around, and everyone held their breath and focused on him.

Being watched by dozens of people, even though he had a hood to block his sight and was properly disguised, the man felt a little embarrassed. He still held the huge pistol vigilantly and kept scanning his surroundings to catch any abnormalities. situation, but his movements are no longer as confident as before.

Until there was a loud noise from the sky, like thunder, accompanied by the roar of the wind, reaching this beach.

"Aquaman, Yann Coatman!"

The hooded man who had always been calm and composed also showed a trace of panic in his words. He did not bother to look for the fake "Desperate Nightingale" who was hiding somewhere, but instead turned his scrutiny to "Crazy Captain" Connors. , "Finger" Maduni and others.

It only took him a second to make a decision.

----

The tall, dark-blue-haired Cardinal of the Church of the Storm, "Sea King" Yan Cotman, was lifted up by the strong wind, leisurely passing by the Blue Mountain Island where Bayam was located, and drifted eastward.

When he is not in a hurry, he will often use this relatively slow movement method instead of causing a sonic boom to run at a speed that can be heard throughout the colonial islands. This allows him to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the archipelago without being too worried about it. It has had a huge impact on ordinary people’s lives.

Of course, even if he moves "slowly", he will inadvertently emit bursts of roaring, a muffled sound that represents storms and thunder. To the ears of those who are familiar with it, it means that the "Sea King" is coming in person.

He inadvertently glanced at the coastline of Lanshan Island, and saw a bright fire near Bayam.

That scale is the burning of ships!
Slowing down, Yann Coatman lowered his altitude and soon appeared above the seaside. His eyes looked downwards scrutinizingly, his pupils changing slightly.

Under his feet, a pirate ship with the "One-Eyed Skull" logo was burning with blazing fire, being beaten by the waves and hitting the dock boardwalk. On the nearby beach, dozens of sailors were standing and lying in various directions, with dozens of sailors standing and lying between them. , the slave girls strung together with hemp ropes were crying softly.

The bodies of a short man and a middle-aged man wearing a black blindfold were overlapped. A piece of wood pulp penetrated the chest and were strung together. Their eyes were wide-eyed and they had long since lost their lives.

……

"... Qonas Kilgor, who hitched a boat to the depths of the ocean, reacted very quickly. He only killed collaborators who might leave evidence against him and burned the ship without wasting a second on dealing with sailors or slaves. , so as not to be targeted by the Cardinal of the Church of Storms who is preparing to return to Bayam, this is a reasonable approach."

On the same beach, in front of Angel, a man in white robes commented softly, then turned around and looked this way.

Above them, the "Sea King" was still flying around, looking for clues. Around them, sailors who had lost their means of transportation and didn't know what to do, and slave girls who had regained their freedom were scolding and crying.

But no one paid attention to Angel, who was standing there, and the blond man in front of her.

His beard covered the lower half of his face, his eyes were clear, his expression was kind, with a faint smile on his lips, his voice was gentle, and he said:
"Before the punishers arrive after hearing the news, I still have a little time to answer your questions.

"Long time no see, Miss Angel Granger, you can call me Adam."
