Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 70 Night Market
Is that coming?which?
Angel was confused and couldn't take the other party's topic for a while.

Dai Li nodded understandingly: "If you don't feel well, go to bed early, I'll find someone else to catch that 'craftsman'..."

Hearing the word "craftsman", Angel's heart tightened, and he subconsciously touched the revolver "Thirsty Blood" on his waist.

Could it be the "craftsman" Kavey who helped him identify the magical item in the afternoon?She is a wild Extraordinary, was reported by others?

"I'm fine, I'm just a little tired in the afternoon, and I haven't eaten dinner, so I'm a little too hungry... Who is the 'artisan' you're talking about?"

Angel waved his hand as if nothing had happened, and asked.

"It's the arrest warrant issued by the 'Mechanical Heart' in Enmat Port yesterday, and it has only now reached us. Tomac, one of their team members, the 'craftsman' in the team, went missing yesterday after killing two of his teammates when he was out on a mission."

"Is his potion named 'Artisan'?"

Angel subconsciously thought of Kavey who identified her "thirsty blood" today. She is also called "artisan". Maybe this is a potion of a certain path mastered by the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery, just like the "Sleepless" of the Church of Evernight Goddess?
Daly shook her head, took a wanted warrant from the indifferent man who was talking to her behind her, and handed it to Angel.

It depicts a man in his 30s, with short hair, a thin face, and thick-rimmed glasses, like a teacher in school.

Due to the limited details of the sketch, some key words were written below the wanted notice: brown-black short hair, black windbreaker when missing, gray loose trousers, thick leather shoes, accent with northern characteristics of the kingdom.

"Tomats is a civilian employee of the 'Mechanical Heart'. He has never had the opportunity to obtain potions and become a Beyonder. He knows some knowledge of firearm maintenance and equipment installation, and usually helps repair weapons and maintain equipment. But at present, it is very likely that he took the potion by himself and became a Beyonder. After the incident was revealed, he killed the witnesses of the same company and disappeared. According to the arrest warrant, he has probably reached the level of Sequence 8."

"So 'craftsman' is just a profession, not a sequence of Extraordinary?"

It's really indescribable...

Angel looked back at Thomas's elegant face on the wanted notice, and sighed.

This kind of attire that can be seen everywhere on the road, if it hadn't been painted on the arrest warrant, even if it passed by in front of it, it would not attract the attention of the police and Extraordinary.

But having said that, which Extraordinary would write "Come and catch me" on his face?

"This is a big scandal. If it weren't for the death of two Extraordinary people and the serious shortage of manpower in Enmat Port, maybe they wouldn't have sent us the arrest warrant at all, but would have dealt with the traitors themselves."

Daly lowered her voice and continued.

"However, the 'Mechanical Heart' has already located Tomac through some means today, and it is in our jurisdiction, so today it applied for a joint operation."

Daly took a step back, let out the man behind her, and continued:

"This is Herman, a member of the 'Mechanical Heart' Emmat Port team, Sequence 8 of the Mystery Path, 'Fighting Scholar'."

The secret peeker is the same way as old Neil, but "fighting scholar"?What a weird potion name...but many potions have similar, nonsensical names, such as "audience" or "corpse collector".

If there are 22 paths, and the potion names of 9 sequences in each path are collected, it must be a hodgepodge of all walks of life.

The black-haired man named Herman did not greet Angel, but said anxiously to Daly: "Ms. Daly, let's set off as soon as possible. Tomacs was located six hours ago, and he has probably fled elsewhere."

"Well, I wanted to find another helper, but as you can see, this lady is not feeling well, so I will go with you alone."

Daly took back the arrest warrant for the mechanical heart, folded it in half, stuffed it back into her robe, and whispered close to Angel, "You can take a good rest, or go have dinner nearby. There are many good restaurants on First Avenue."

It seemed that she still thought that Angel was "coming to that".

Angel didn't understand what "that" was until then, she couldn't find an excuse to refute, and she couldn't explain the reason for her inexplicable blood loss.

But Daly's misunderstanding is exactly what she wants. The message she left to Miss Justice in the "Scavenging Bird Bar" trading market before, the agreed time is from [-] to [-] o'clock tonight. If she is called to help "Mechanical Heart" catch fugitives, she will definitely lose the transaction on the other side.

Herman looked hesitantly at Rupert Norman, who was experimenting with pipe tobacco with cigarettes, as if he wanted to call in this extra force, but Daly had already walked out of the "Silver Bullet" gate first, so he had no choice but to follow quickly.

Angel also had some doubts about Daly not calling other people, but seeing the members of the "Mechanical Heart" who suddenly appeared at the door and got into the carriage with Herman, they suddenly understood everything.

They were holding automatic weapons!

As expected of the Extraordinary arm of the "God of Steam and Machinery", these fire support teams composed of ordinary people are all armed with guns. Although they do not carry powerful but more cumbersome high-pressure steam rifles, they can match semi-automatic weapons used by ordinary people with burst rifles. The difference in firepower is even greater than that of extraordinary people against ordinary people.

Coupled with the cooperation of Daly, the "psychic" of Sequence 7, to deal with a defected Sequence 8, even if it is a so-called "combat scholar", it should be said to be a sure win.

Angel, who no longer cared about Daly's safety, looked back at Rupert, who had a tense face and seemed to be fiddled with the pipe and tobacco leaves, but in fact, his eyes had been secretly turning to the members of the "Mechanical Heart" lined up outside the door. It was not until Herman walked out of the room that his shoulders drooped and he relaxed.

It seems that this Nighthawk from Stoun has any problems with the other party, or is he targeting the "Mechanical Heart" instead of a specific member?

As if sensing Angel's sight, Rupert stopped what he was doing, looked up at her, opened his mouth with a smile, and was about to say something.

Afraid of being entangled by this chatterbox again, Angel pretended not to notice, and walked straight out of the lobby on the first floor of "Silver Bullet".

She rushed to the "Scavenging Bird Bar" in a hurry to sell the star crystals that were temporarily unused.

----

Bypassing the noisy bar area and entering the third floor of "Scavenging Bird" again, Angel was stunned by the far more lively atmosphere during the day.

When she first came here, the sparse crowd made her think that the underground trading market in Enmat Harbor was nothing more than that, but it turned out that night is the home field here.

The convenient sea and land transportation provided this port city with a large number of floating population and goods exchange, making underground transactions far more prosperous than Tingen City. At this time, the not-so-wide third floor was like a noisy vegetable market, and the designated fixed stalls were already occupied. Others who needed to sell goods could only set up street stalls in the corner, or even hawk directly with items in their hands.Buyers shuttled between the booths, stopping from time to time to ask prices and complete transactions.

Even the number of guards with guns watching the venue was double that of the afternoon. Two guarded at the stairway and two stood in the corner by the window, observing every move of the crowd.

Among the crowds, Angel couldn't find the "justice" he had never met, so he had to squeeze through the crowd and came to the message board by the wall.

The message board, which still had one-third of the space left in the afternoon, was already filled with various transaction information, so that new messages could only be found between the words, and written on the message board in a smaller font.

Some people even erased the messages left by others in conspicuous places, and then wrote their own. After several battles, the blackboard was smeared into a mess, and many of the newly written words were almost unreadable.

The message she wrote about selling star crystals is still there. If you look carefully, there are still a few lines of small characters on the side.

"I want them all. The price is negotiable. I'll look for 'justice' at the stall next to the stairs at night."

Sure enough, this deliberately released message attracted Miss Justice who was in urgent need of potion materials.

Angel did not rush to find her, but continued to browse the message boards that had been updated to see if there was any other useful information.

"Selling mummy powder... This should be the information from the stall owner in the afternoon. It seems that she still has a lot of goods, but I don't know if this thing is really effective; 5ml of Rava octopus blood (crossed out) has been sold...Maybe it was bought by Miss 'Justice'; I bought an Extraordinary weapon...Is it published in this kind of place, will you find a seller? Urgent sale of the characteristics of 'Instigator'... No way, some people dare to sell this kind of thing, are they not afraid of being hunted down by the 'Gnosis Society' or even the 'Witch Sect'?"

She scanned the messages line by line and summed up the content of the transaction. She had a general understanding of the transaction level of this market.

It seems that although the passenger flow is not much different from the "Dragon Bar" in Tingen City, and the order is even worse due to poor management, the level of items traded in Enmat Port is half a grade higher than that in Tingen City.Not only can you buy all kinds of spiritual materials here, but occasionally there is also information such as purchasing extraordinary weapons and selling extraordinary characteristics. This should have a lot to do with the relatively relaxed "environment" of Enmat Port.

It's a pity that I didn't find the main ingredients for the "Instigator" potion... Maybe it would be better to write down the materials to buy?

Just when she moved her eyes to the end of the message board in disappointment, a special message written in the corner came into view. The message was written in extremely small fonts, like a stain left in the corner of the wall.

"The next stage of 'Assassin', the price is negotiable, from 13 to [-] pm on Saturdays, at the bar No. [-] on the first floor."

This message may seem confusing to ordinary people, but in the eyes of "Assassin" Angel, it is the information she has been looking forward to for a long time, the next stage of potion.
