Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 976: Gehrman was captured by you
After Angel was promoted to the Witch of Pain and headed to the sea with Klein, who had transformed into the crazy adventurer German Sparrow, he briefly stayed on a small island called Bansi and was involved in a turmoil caused by the local ancient beliefs.

On that short but strange night, a bishop of the local Storm Church succumbed to primitive bloody sacrifices, led a group of cultists to kidnap residents, and tried to perform sacrificial activities on the altar on the top of the mountain to revive the so-called "Weather God". They were stopped in time by Angel and a small team of "punishers" and no tragedy occurred.

After that brief battle, some of Angel's blood dripped onto the altar, activating the rune which was actually "disaster", and was teleported to the catacombs of Trier along with the dead Storm Church bishop.

Of course, Angel later learned that this was because the entire Bansi Port, which was the "Binsi" of the Fourth Epoch, was the territory of the Angel King Medici and was contaminated by the leaked power of the "City of Disaster", and had a certain connection with this source material. This led to the establishment of a two-way "teleportation" ceremony with Trier, another place that was also affected by this power.

This magical ritual will allow the user to return to the time of entry when he or she "returns", even if he or she has spent several days on the other side.

In a sense, this is also a kind of "time travel", a time travel.

Although the ritual can only allow people to return from the "future" to the "present" rather than from the "present" to the "past", under the current situation, it is still a good way to buy time.

Thinking of this, Angel didn't bother to continue communicating with the "man in the mirror", but quickly moved through the channel in the mirror and quickly moved towards Bansi Island on the edge of the Violent Sea.

At the same time, the words of the "man in the mirror" followed her closely:
"Remember the characteristics of the 'City of Disaster' that I told you about? It is composed of countless cities representing 'disasters', spanning time and space. This means that with its power, you can also span both at the same time... provided that you have a certain 'brand' and sufficient spirituality.

"Now that you have arrived in Bansi, you need to immediately draw the corresponding rune at the original site of the altar, and then activate it with blood. This should allow you to be transported to Trier in the current time period, and you will also have a new 'brand'... While waiting for the 'disaster' feature to be taken out of the floating city and promoted to Sequence 2, you can then use the same brand to return to Bansi at this time. This may be delayed for a few minutes, but it is the best condition we can strive for."

As the response of the "man in the mirror" became increasingly unclear, Angel increased his speed through the mirror channel to the limit, even going through several dangerous areas that he originally had to bypass, where the mirror world and the spirit world merged with each other.

In less than three minutes, Angel, who had completely digested the "immortality" potion and had reached a new level of control over the mirror world, emerged from the mirror formed by a calm puddle on Bansi Island. He immediately used the sea singer soul of the "Rose Necklace" to drive the strong wind to lift himself up to a high place.

Only then did she realize that Bansi, which originally had a fairly large town and several mountains that formed a good shelter for each other, had changed.

The port town, famous for its local delicacies such as pig blood, has become a complete ruin. Not a single intact building can be seen. Even the Sea Breeze Church with its spire and buttresses has collapsed into countless stones of various sizes, with no trace of its original appearance left.

The surrounding mountain peaks were also cut down by some great force, presenting a kind of flat surface, but the top was bumpy with traces of charred lightning and low trees that grew again after being swept by the strong wind.

Half of the island facing the port looked like this, with barely any living animals to be seen.

It should be the work of the Church of Storms, and it is very likely that an angel personally took action... The "Hanged Man" once said that they moved all the residents and completely destroyed this port suspected of evil beliefs, but the truth should be that they could not handle the power of the "City of Disaster"... Angel pondered, and quickly found the mountain where the altar was originally located, and landed on the top of the mountain which was completely different from the scene in his memory.

The original cave had been opened, revealing the location of the altar, but Angel only saw a vitrified pit. The surrounding rubble had either been burned by fire or struck by lightning, and not a single piece was spared.

Looking at the masterpiece of the Church of Storms with some emotion, Angel directly cut his finger with his fingernail, and drew the complex rune pattern in his memory on the glass ground with his blood. He then stood in it, closed his eyes, and his spirituality escaped, quickly enveloping the entire temporary altar.

The next second, the sunlight that filtered through her eyelids disappeared like a light being turned off.

----

Deep in the raging sea, above a small island that no one can find.

The floating island, which had lost weight but still blocked out the sun, slowly emerged from the void, outlining its own shape. Then, a city with a Quaternary style and some new conceptual architectural ideas appeared inside the floating island. The residents on the streets and in the buildings were working or resting according to their own life trajectories, and did not realize that they had returned to the real world from the cracks in the spiritual world.

In the governor's office of the city hall, a middle-aged man with short brass-colored hair and two upturned mustaches was sitting at his desk, writing something quickly with his head down. His pale golden eyes kept looking at the stack of documents next to him, his brows furrowed, and he was obviously very worried.

Suddenly, he sighed, threw down his pen, and looked at the wall on one side. At this moment, a golden light came out from there, and a girl who looked underage walked out of the light, glanced at the man who was working, and sat on the sofa next to him.

"Has the separation process been initiated?"

The former Archon Geldruf, who was also an incarnation of Amon, asked. Anne, who had black hair, golden eyes, and wore a plain white dress, nodded and answered expressionlessly:

"Yes. After stopping George III, the 'City of Dreams' will soon return to reality. The characteristics of the 'Disaster' witch are no longer needed. I will be able to separate it from the control of the 'Hand of Order' in about five days and restore it to the purest Beyonder characteristics."

As she spoke, Anne's eyes rested on the document in front of Amon and she asked:
"What about your mission? Have you completed the calculations? We will soon land this city on the island below and make it a real city in reality. The location and angle of the landing point are very important."

Amon, who had gained some weight and was not wearing a monocle in his eye sockets, shook his head and said:

"I have already done these calculations when you took the floating city to bomb the Black Emperor's mausoleum, but I still suggest not to rush to land the city on the ground."

"why?"

"Because of some... budgetary issues, you want me to design a port and select young people from the public to form a professional army... These were not taken into consideration at the beginning of the design of the 'Dream City'. Self-sufficient factories do not have the ability to produce weapons. These all need to be purchased with money... Well, did you know that there is a currency popular in various countries now, called the gold pound..."

At the end of his speech, Amon looked at Anne with interest and his tone became slower.

"I haven't been isolated from the world for two thousand years. Of course I know about the gold pound."

Anne did not get angry at the subtle sarcasm, but just frowned slightly.

But then they unfolded again:
"My contractor is a wealthy person. She owns a winery in Backlund and has a bank account of 100,000 pounds. She should be able to solve these, um, budget problems."

One hundred thousand pounds… Amon repeated silently, with a smile on his face, leaning back in his chair in a relaxed posture, and said jokingly:
"That would probably be enough to build half a port, not counting the related maintenance facilities...

"Do you know? Before coming here, I once 'borrowed' the identity of a nobleman. He was a baron in Loen and his family was quite well off. He earned 400,000 pounds a year from land rent and stock dividends alone, and..."

Before he finished speaking, he looked towards the window as if he had sensed something, and Anne, who was sitting opposite him, did the same.

The outline of a slender figure has now been sketched out by the window. As the colors and details gradually take shape, Angel walks out of the mirror world.

Amon slowly swallowed the rest of his teasing words. He felt that if he continued, some bad consequences would occur.

This is the caution of a "cryptographer".

But Angel had no time to care about the inner drama of this Amon clone, but looked at Annie and asked anxiously:

"What about the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Disaster' witch? How long will it take to get it out of the floating city?"

"Five days," Anne repeated the time she had just told Amon, and then asked in confusion, "What happened? Shouldn't you still be in Backlund dealing with the aftermath of George III's death?"

Amon also narrowed his right eye and looked at Angel with interest, waiting for an answer.

The latter glanced at the clone and said carefully:

"German Sparrow was most likely captured by one of Amon's clones."
