Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 566 Escape from Bayam

As soon as the sky dawned, Klein, wearing a thick windbreaker, a half-top hat, and carrying a suitcase, arrived at the port in a hired carriage.

He got out of the car when he was still some distance away from the dock, took out a coin and did a divination, and then walked quickly to the place where he was scheduled to board the ship.

Compared to the city that had just woken up, the dock was already extremely noisy. The various sounds from cargo ships waiting to load and unload cargo, busy dock workers, and passengers queuing up to board the ship covered up Klein's footsteps.

He took out the ticket he bought in advance yesterday, accepted the check-in from the crew, and moved to the end of the queue under the other party's command.

As long as he boarded this steam-powered passenger ship, within a few hours, he would be far away from the Blue Mountain Island where Bayam was located, avoiding the turbulent garrison, the punisher, and the "Blood Admiral" who wanted to deal with him. "And the "Rose School"...

After registering another passenger, the crew member who just helped Klein check the ticket looked back and suddenly discovered that the man in the trench coat wearing the top hat was no longer in the queue!

The crew looked around and saw many Loen people dressed like this at the bustling dock, but upon closer inspection, none of them were him.

Strange, how could someone buy a ticket but not board the ship?

----

"Key point..." Angel murmured, and quickly summarized some key points, "Admiral Blood's pirate fleet needs to be careful. It may not be safe for us to leave by sea; the 'Rose School' may have demigods involved in attacking us. The attack, with their style of daring to enter Backlund to capture Miss Sharon, is very likely to be carried out directly by Bayam, who is controlled by 'Aquaman' Yarne Cotman."

"Second, let's split up."

At this moment, the top hat on Klein's head was blown off by the breeze. He frowned and subconsciously tried to catch it.

Sitting on the single sofa opposite him was a heavily armed Angel. The two of them didn't dare to sleep at all now, and they were worried that they would encounter official personnel who were hunting down Hermoshuin when they went out, so they could only stick to the hotel and wait for dawn.

"Warnings from multiple sources indicate that those who are going to be detrimental to us are 'Blood Admiral' Senior and the 'Rose School' behind him..."

Klein added.

In the woods near the dock, Klein held his suitcase in one hand and held his top hat in the other, walking quickly towards the cliff in the distance.

"And the reminder from Hilarion, the 'orange light' among the seven lights in the spiritual world, points to the real man behind the scenes, the 'Mother Tree of Desire' that once tried to pollute us..."

"Their route is mainly 'prisoners'. According to 'Orange Light' Hilarion, their ultimate goal is to capture us alive and dedicate them to the 'Mother Tree of Desire', so we need to prevent them from passing through buildings and obstacles in the form of resentful spirits. Things get close to us, and then we use 'possession' to control us..."

In the living room of the "Azure Wind" luxury suite, Klein was completely sleepless as he watched "Orange Light" leave. He stared closely at the message that said "I caught you" and slowly explained.

----

"Then the goal is clear. We cannot stay in Bayam, nor can we leave by boat or by sea. We must also be on guard against being possessed by the 'revengeful spirit' and losing our resistance..." Angel took over, "First of all, we must prepare to deal with the resentment. The soul-purifying bullet and the ability of the sun brooch are also very important, and secondly..."

If I really get on the boat, I'm afraid "Blood Admiral" Senior is not far away waiting for me to surrender...

"I have read in a book called "Spirit Realm Insights" that they are seven rays of pure light located at the top of the spiritual world and contain infinite knowledge. Experienced occult experts can use secret contract rituals to contact them and obtain corresponding knowledge. These seven pure lights call themselves the 'Brotherhood of Pure Light' and often enter the real world, becoming geniuses in a certain field and teaching humans the corresponding knowledge."

"As a great scientist, Hermosuin claims to be one of the Seven Lights with considerable credibility. Since he mentioned that the 'Mother Tree of Desire' covets us, our strategy must focus on this. , make corresponding adjustments.”

Klein gave a brief explanation first, and then brought the topic back on track.

Seeing the edge of the woods and the cliff right in front of him, he dug into the inner pocket of his windbreaker and prepared to find the talisman he had prepared.

"Seven Lights in the Spirit World?"

He chuckled, stopped looking far away, and continued towards the cliff by the sea. There, he can use the spell of "Poseidon" to attract friendly sea creatures. Just like he hitched a ride in the sea monster's mouth last time, he can sneak away from the Blue Mountain Island where Bayam is located and go to other islands.

Hearing this unfamiliar term, she immediately asked.

After passing a thick tree, he looked back at the pier below. It was no different from when he left. It was still noisy and busy. The passenger ship he was supposed to take had left the port and was slowly heading north, dragging thick smoke. .

The silk top hat seemed to be held by invisible hands, circled above, returned to the front, and suddenly pressed hard on his face, pocketing his mouth and nose inside and covering it tightly.

At the same time, the fallen leaves and branches around him were like sharp knives with sharp thorns, rushing towards Klein.

Snapped.

Klein released his left hand holding the suitcase and let it fall to the ground. The surface of the black gloves became even deeper and darker.

"Creeping Hunger" has instantly switched to the soul of "Desire Apostle".

The palm of his right hand was facing down, and a light blue fireball filled with the smell of sulfur appeared in his hand. It fell quickly as soon as it took shape, touched the ground, and exploded.

Boom, the fallen leaves under the feet, the wooden suitcase, and the surrounding branches and leaves that seemed to have their own lives were all enveloped by the sudden flames and turned into ashes.

Klein's figure appeared at the edge of the fireball. He had used the "flame flash" to get rid of the silk hat covering his mouth and nose. His brown eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, looking for the attacker who had not yet appeared. The flames created by the lava fireball quickly dissipated, and the billowing smoke crossed the tree canopy and floated into the sky. Where Klein dropped the suitcase, thicker black smoke continued to rise, and soon floated to a height of 100 meters. , so that this place can be noticed by the entire Bayam City.

What was in his suitcase was not clothes at all, but smoke-generating drugs that he had prepared himself and ignited when exposed to fire!

Once they are attacked in the wild, they can be easily discovered by anyone who is paying attention to what is going on in the city by setting them on fire.

Among them is "Sea King" Yan Cotman, the Sequence 3 Saint of the Church of Storms.

As if it was clear that he could not drag it on any longer, a twisted figure at the edge of the smoke appeared in Klein's spiritual vision. It was a vaguely cold man wearing a black robe, but his figure was hazy and looming.

Sure enough, it was a "Wraith Soul", but it wasn't Senior. Could it be that he was a demigod from the "Rose School"... Klein's eyes immediately locked onto the opponent. The next second, he did not hesitate to use "Flame Leap", with the help of The withered yellow leaves that had not yet been extinguished and were blown into the sky by the hot air came to the other end of the smoke and ran towards the cliff not far away.

The expected demigod appeared, and the only thing he could do was to run as fast as possible, and then pray to "Sea King" or other helpers to come as soon as possible...

Suddenly, Klein's running figure froze on the spot, then slowly lowered his arms and legs and stood at attention.

In each of his eyes, a figure wearing a black robe and tan skin appeared, about to transform into a complete human form.

Poof, bright yellow flames burst out from the hem of his windbreaker, and his figure disappeared in the "flame jump". The target was the direction he came from, the other end of the smoke-filled woods.

But the next second, the flames dissipated, and Klein's figure appeared on the spot without moving at all.

In his eyes, two figures in black robes had taken shape, then dispersed into brown, covering the entire pupils.

He has been possessed by a "ghost" and has taken complete control of his actions.

"Klein" shook his neck and shook his arms, as if he was getting familiar with his "new body." After a moment, he changed directions and walked down the cliff to the uninhabited beach on the outskirts of Bayam City.

There was already a small boat waiting here. Several pirates held oars in their hands and looked left and right. When they saw him coming, they were first surprised and then welcomed him happily.

"Lord Zatwin?"

the leading pirate asked.

"Return to the 'Tree of Flesh' immediately."

Klein ordered coldly, as if he was not a "crazy adventurer" but the immediate boss of these pirates.

Several pirates obeyed the order and took Klein away from the beach in a small boat. They quickly followed the low tide to a huge reef not far away. Around the reef, they saw a dark red ship with white sails and black masts. The ships forming a strange tree shape are parked here.

That was the "Tree of Flesh", the flagship of "Admiral of Blood" Senior, which made all sailors and passengers at sea change their colors.

Seeing this ship with a notorious reputation, a look of hesitation flashed across Klein's face, and his dull, dazed eyes became clear for a moment. However, possessed by the "resentful spirit", he moved without any hesitation and followed his movements. The lowered rope ladder climbed up to the deck, and then slowly walked into the inner cabin under the puzzled eyes of the pirates, and arrived at the captain's cabin in a familiar way.

Senior, wearing a three-cornered hat and cold eyes, was standing at the chart table in the captain's cabin. When he heard the movement, he looked up and immediately became respectful, lowered his head and said:
"Lord Zatvin!"

The possessed Klein nodded, walked into the room, and sat directly on the captain's high-backed chair. The real captain, Senior, stood beside him like a sailor.

After sitting down, Klein said:

"That's half the mission accomplished. Where's Jacks?"

"Master Jacks left with that sacred object. He should have a clue to the woman's location."

Senor replied, completely different from his usual domineering attitude.

Hearing this, the expression on Klein's face changed slightly.

"Haha, this body is still somewhat resistant. Possession cannot last long and will cause fatal damage to him. You take over control first, and I will put him into a deep sleep. After Jacks succeeds, I will sacrifice him directly on your ship."

On my ship... There was something strange in Senior's eyes, but it was not reflected in his movements. He just nodded and watched as Zatwin, who possessed Klein, released part of his "control" and allowed him to The head was restored to "freedom".

This allows another "ghost spirit" to use its eyes to possess it again, but the target is unable to use its body and escapes control.

In the weak candlelight in the captain's cabin, Klein's brown eyes turned from dull to clear, but the figure of Senior wearing a three-cornered hat immediately appeared in them. The lines were outlined, the colors were filled, and they were about to become complete.

This is obviously slower than Zatwin's previous control, which shows the difference in strength between the two in different sequences.

At this moment, the expression on Klein's face changed. First he became angry, his brows were furrowed, his eyes were condensed, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
