Chapter 416 The Wanted "Queen"

"You are a fool who does not belong to this era...

"Dear Mr. Fool, first of all, I would like to apologize to you. I have seen relevant information about Miss 'Queen' because of my work, but I swear I have never leaked this information. Today, I met a person in Bayam, Rhoside Islands. A young woman who bears a strong resemblance to the 'Queen', has she arrived here to perform some mission for you?

"If that's the case and she needs it, I can provide some help."

...

On Sour Lemon Street in the dock area, in the luxurious suite of the "Azure Wind" hotel, Klein came into the gray fog and heard the prayer of "The Hanged Man". He was a little confused about whether to laugh or cry.

"This stupid witch was recognized as soon as she arrived in Bayam... But this is also my fault. I told her not to use the 'Ring of Madness' as much as possible to avoid being discovered and Backlund's Irene Wo Sen is related, but in fact it is also somewhat selfish..."

Klein muttered, not thinking about how to reply to the Hanged Man yet, so he simply used his power as a superior to put the matter aside and talk about it later when he had time.

"If you reply too quickly, it will appear that 'The Fool' is not strong enough. Haha, you can leave it out overnight."

Ding--

He tossed a coin and did a divination to confirm that the encounter between the two would not cause great harm to Angel.

Above the gray fog, he can eliminate most interference and perform the most accurate divination. Although it is difficult to break through the holy symbol given to Angel by the angel of the Church of the Night, he can still obtain accurate answers to some questions that do not directly point to her. answer.

Even so, he still transferred this prayer video to "Queen" Angel as a reminder to prevent her from wandering around Bayam and being recognized by more people.

After doing all this, Klein silently left the majestic palace and returned to the fairly large bathroom.

As one of the best hotels in the dock area, the suites of "Azure Wind" have independent master and servant rooms, a balcony facing the sea, a soft and comfortable rocking chair, and even a bathtub in the bathroom - the latter is why they chose this The main factor of the suite.

"Proper bathing is good for physical and mental health..."

Klein glanced at the bathtub, resisted the urge to put in the hot water and lay down in it, and returned to the living room. Looking at the gathering dark clouds and the increasing sea breeze outside the balcony, he sighed with some regret, regardless of Byam. How many delicious foods there are and how many scenic spots are worth visiting can only be discussed tomorrow.

squeak-

The door was pushed open, Angel slipped in through the crack of the door lightly, closed the door smoothly, and hung her favorite hat with white feathers on the coat rack beside the door.

"Klein, come here." She saw Klein standing in the living room and sighed. She waved her hand to call him over and said in a low voice, "I have bad news. I seem to have been recognized by another follower of Mr. Fool."

Using the Faceless Man's ability to control expressions to hold back his laughter, Klein pretended to be serious and asked:

"what happened?"

"Mr. Fool conveyed a message to me. A member who had attended a meeting organized by him recognized me. It was probably on my way to the bar to inquire about the information..."

Angel informed Klein of today's itinerary one by one, and then continued with a frown:

"If so, then the dark blue-haired middle-aged man I saw in 'Sea and Fire' is very suspicious. His hair color is the same as the member I know, and I once guessed he was 'Storm' "Believers of 'may be able to see my information as a 'Nighthawk' from the church..."

"He thought I came to Bayam to carry out Mr. Fool's mission, but we are only here for vacation. Do you think I should answer him?"

I was able to find the traces of "The Hanged Man" in reverse immediately, much faster than I thought... Klein thought happily and continued to guide the other party's thoughts:

"Is the member you mentioned reliable? Can he really help you?"

"He is very knowledgeable, especially about various legends and the distribution of forces in the Five Seas. This may be related to his original identity." Angel thought for a moment and replied, "He is very reliable in big things, but a little bit in small things." He cares about gains and losses, but things have changed recently. I think he can provide a lot of help in our next activities in Bayam."

She has a very high opinion of "The Hanged Man", but her views are similar to mine, so maybe I can get in touch with him without revealing my identity... Klein pretended to think deeply, and nodded after a long time. :

"Then you should try to get in touch with him and find out about the local gathering of Beyonders in Bayam. Where are the clues about the mermaid? It's best to ask the pirates nearby who have relatively high bounties and are not very 'difficult'... …"

At the end of the sentence, Klein's eyes were a little bright. Although the two of them are not short of money now, with a combined total of about 4000 pounds, the material clues of the Sequence 5 "Secret Puppet Master" have not yet been found, which came from the Intis spy. Rosago's extraordinary characteristics were contaminated by the True Creator during the battle and were temporarily unable to be used. In order to be promoted in the future, he had to save at least 10000 pounds to be considered safe, so his desire for gold pounds could be said to be extremely strong.

Angel's eyes lit up when she heard the word bounty, and she said excitedly:

"When I was tracking Daniz today, I found my own wanted order. It was issued by the Church of Storms. How much do you think it is?" Seeing Klein raise his eyebrows with an interested expression, she continued, " 6000 pounds! Two whole 'Flame' Danitz!"

What's so exciting about this? No, I'm really envious... Klein pursed his lips and recalled the pirates active near the Rhoside Islands in his mind, planning how to quickly increase his "worth".

"The strangest thing is that they don't seem to have mentioned Bishop Miller's treachery in the wanted list. Could it be that he really had no choice but to join a cult and perform human sacrifices for the safety of Bansi Island?"

After a brief moment of excitement, Angel asked doubtfully.

"It's not surprising. Betrayal is an internal matter within the Church of Storms. They have their own corresponding procedures to deal with it. But if the matter is leaked and everyone knows that a bishop who believes in 'Storm' has become the leader of a cult, it will be a threat to them in Rhoside." The mission of the archipelago and its own reputation will have a great impact. Maybe this wanted order is just a routine matter, and there is no hope of catching you. "However, you'd better change your appearance in Bayam, lest you Being recognized, this time it was a believer of Mr. Fool, next time it might be a believer of Storm. "

Isn't he also a Storm believer this time... Angel curled his lips, took off the "faceless man" characteristics on his face, and restored his true appearance.

"Then you have to be careful. This extraordinary feature has quite a few side effects. Wearing it on your face for too long will make people crave blood and flesh. Of course, I found a solution..."

She said with a smile on her lips, successfully seeing some changes in Klein's expression.

"What's the solution?"

he asked cautiously.

"Eat...meat."

Angel replied in a long tone.

Just eat me... Klein breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the door, and pulled the bell that led to the reception area on the first floor.

"It doesn't matter. There is room service here to satisfy your appetite at any time. After the rainstorm, we can go to a nearby restaurant to try Bayam's specialty grilled fish."

As if to annotate his words, with the "rumbling" of thunder outside the balcony, a downpour of rain fell on this "generous city".

----

Rumbling--

Against the continuous thunder, Alger Wilson rushed forward quickly and returned to the largest church on the island, the "Church of the Waves" before the heavy rain fell.

This is an all-stone church with a classical style and two tall bell towers. It was built in the early days of the Loen Kingdom's colonization of the Rhoside Islands. It has gone through hundreds of years and still stands here.

Passing through the narrow passage behind the gate, he came to the main prayer room and met the local bishop waiting here.

It's Kyogory, why is he still here so late... Alger frowned slightly. He just came to perform evening prayers as usual and had no intention of meeting anyone else, but he couldn't help but say hello when he met.

"The storm is with you!"

He held his right fist to his left chest and said hello.

"The storm is with you!"

The gray-haired bishop responded in the same way, and then said immediately without waiting for him to leave:

"There are two things you need to do. First, there are some rumors in the city recently that the 'Vice Admiral Iceberg' who owns the 'Golden Dream' has obtained the key to death, which has made nearby pirates ready to move, and even came to Baia despite the ban. Mm, please trace the source of the rumor."

There are such rumors every year, such as "Ghost Empire", "Solomon's Legacy", "Death's Key", anyway, the last ones traced are some drunkards or guys who hope to defraud adventurers of an investment... Al Jie was a little disapproving, but still nodded seriously:

"Okay, Lord K2."

The bishop was very satisfied with the attitude of this subordinate who had always abided by the church's rules and even came to pray every night, even though he had been disguised as a pirate to perform tasks for the church for a long time. He continued:

"Secondly, a new wanted order has been issued. Please pay attention to your informants in Bayam and do not try to fight her. Everyone on your 'Blue Avenger' combined cannot defeat her. ."

He handed a wanted notice in his arms that was still smelling of ink to Alger. The latter took it and looked at it with the faint candlelight, and found that it was a rare wanted notice with only written descriptions.

"Angelica Sage, disappeared after killing the bishop and took away high-value items..."

As soon as he read the beginning, Alger was a little frightened. He knew that the person who could become a regional bishop was at least a Sequence 6 "Wind Blessed", and the Chogory in front of him was a Sequence 5 "Ocean Singer". He could After killing a Bishop of the Church of Storms, how could I dare to fight her?

"Yes, I will try to find clues about her and will never fight her head-on."

He replied smoothly, moving his gaze downwards and continuing to look at the second half of the wanted poster, which was a description of the wanted person's physical features in words when there was no portrait.

"Female from Loen, with medium light blond hair, purple eyes, about eighteen years old... There is a white feather on her hat?"

If he hadn't been a "Fool's Believer" in the church for several months, Alger would have been unable to hide his surprised expression at this time.

Angelica Sage, who killed the Bishop of the Church of Storms, is the "Queen" of the Tarot Society?

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 417 Meeting with the Hanged Man

After leaving the "Waves Church", Alger held the wanted notice in his hand and returned to his temporary residence in the rain. After changing out of his clothes that were soaked with sweat or rain, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"A Bishop of the Church of Storms died in the hands of the 'Queen' of the Tarot Society. Is Mr. Fool finally going to take action against the Church of Righteous God..."

He sat at the table, looked at the wanted poster with the pseudonym "Angelica Sage", and murmured to himself.

"But isn't she the 'Nighthawk' of the Church of the Night? Did Mr. Fool drag us members of different faiths into the 'Tarot Society' in order to let us 'help' each other and conduct some intelligence work within our respective churches? , cooperate with other members..."

At this moment, he thought a lot, and even considered whether to report the matter or continue to act like he didn't know what to do, so as not to lose his life under the gaze of a fool.

"No, this may just be Miss Queen's own behavior, not performing a certain task, but if so, she should not easily kill the bishop of the Zhengshen Church. She must know the consequences of such a thing."

Alger, who was a little restless, stood up from his chair and walked to the window sill, looking at the heavy rain outside the window and the waves of the sea.

Suddenly, the gray and black sky was shrouded in fog, and the familiar gray fog and a blurry figure appeared in front of his eyes.

"Mr. Fool, please tell Mr. 'The Hanged Man' for me that I really need some help from him. If he is willing, please meet at the bar where we last met at three o'clock on Saturday afternoon."

It's the "Queen"!

His eyes widened, looking at the figure in the void, trying to discern some more useful information, but this image was just what Mr. Fool conveyed, not what actually happened in front of him, until the gray mist After the fog dispersed, he could not clearly see the female figure behind the fog.

If it had been an hour ago, he would have gladly agreed to this meeting to get to know each other with the people in the "Tarot Society". Revealing his real identity would indeed bring certain risks, but more convenient cooperation would undoubtedly bring greater gains to both parties. Interests.

but now...

An extraordinary person who can easily kill a bishop who is at least a "Wind Blessed" invited me, who is also a Storm believer, to meet...

It had only been a few months since he was promoted to "Navigator", and Alger, who was still looking for the formula for "Wind Blessed One", felt a little dry in his mouth. For a moment, he didn't dare to recite the Fool's honorable name and reply to this invitation.

----

Sea and Fire Bar on Pelican Street on Saturday afternoon.

Angel, whose face shape has been adjusted using the extraordinary characteristics of the "Faceless Man", and whose facial features have completely changed except for the light blond hair, is sitting at the innermost wooden table, drinking fruit wine while looking towards the entrance of the bar.

In fact, she was not completely sure that the middle-aged man with dark blue hair whom she met yesterday was the "Hanged Man". She said "the bar where we met last time" in the invitation was just to test him out, but she didn't expect that "The Hanged Man" would appear soon. He replied to her, agreed to meet here, and agreed on a code with a strong "Tarot Club" style.

Just when the clock on the wall pointed to three o'clock, the door was pushed open, and a male figure wearing a hood, but with a hint of dark blue on the brim, entered the bar, looked around, and stood still in place as if he was confused. .

It wasn't until he repeatedly confirmed the appearance of everyone on the first floor that he walked towards Angel. When she nodded, he quickened his pace and sat across the table.

"Want to try fortune telling? Tarot reading."

He took out a deck of tarot cards from under his cloak and placed it on the table.

This is the code we have agreed upon. It seems that he is indeed the "Hanged Man", but are you sure you want to do tarot divination in front of me, a master of divination?

Angel remained calm and reached for the deck of tarot cards, which had only 22 big cards. He first turned over the front and took a look, then quickly cut the cards, put them back on the table, pulled out the top three cards, and opened them one by one. Place it on the table.

Those are the Hanged Man, Fool, and Queen cards.

"Interpret it?"

She whispered to avoid attracting the attention of other drinkers around her, although there were not many guests at this time, and most of them had been attracted by the drunken quarrel between several people on the other side.

"The Hanged Man, you have experienced huge sacrifices in the past."

The hooded man chuckled lightly and clicked on the "Hanged Man" which was an angel hanging upside down with his hands tied behind his back. Before Angel could react, he continued:

"Reversed Fool, you have been acting too impulsively recently."

He put his finger on the "Fool", a young man in rich clothes, carrying a cane and holding a puppy, and interpreted the card that represented "now".

"Queen in your rightful place, you will achieve success in the future, but it depends on your response."

Pushing the tarot card depicting a beautiful woman wearing a crown in front of Angel, the man smoothly pulled the Hanged Man to his side, leaving only the "Fool" card in the middle of the table.

"When we first met officially, I was the 'Hanged Man'."

The man took off his hood, revealing his rugged, weathered face and his iconic short dark blue hair, and whispered.

"'Queen'."

Angel replied briefly, knowing that the other party had already seen her information, so she did not introduce herself further.

Moreover, according to the interpretation of Tarot divination just now, the Hanged Man also showed a certain understanding of her past, such as knowing her "sacrifice" in the Tingen tragedy.

"I'm glad you didn't use the face you had yesterday. Wanted posters describing it should have been plastered all over the streets."

After successfully connecting the head, the Hanged Man put away the newly purchased tarot cards and said with a joking tone.

"Thank you for the reminder yesterday."

Angel nodded, admitting that he had a magical item that could change his appearance. "It's just a small thing, but I have a question. Did you really kill a bishop of the Church of Storms?"

"Yes, but under the witness of several substitutes for punishment, the bishop named Miller betrayed the church, joined the local cult, and even became the leader, trying to hold ancient human sacrifices, in order to avoid greater I killed him in the ceremony due to the disaster. The biggest reason why you want me is probably because of the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Wind Blessed One'."

After finishing speaking in one breath, Angel took a sip of the fruit wine and looked at the Hanged Man who was deep in thought, making no secret of his knowledge of the identity of the other storm believer.

"Human sacrifice...Bishop Miller...is there something wrong in Bansi Port?"

The other party reacted quickly and quickly located the location where the incident occurred.

"Four days ago, Bansi Port was covered in fog, strong winds, and countless headless corpses and monsters with only heads left. But things should be resolved now. Don't you know it within the church?"

I don't get news at all at this level... Alger was a little embarrassed, but he didn't show it. Instead, he pondered for a moment and nodded, as if his news channel had been verified from another angle.

"That's it. Thank you for your message. It answered some of my questions. I need to pay for this information..."

He carefully hid his ignorance until he talked about the price he had to pay, and then he remembered that he was not in a Tarot Club above the gray mist, but in Bayam's bar.

"I do need some information, such as the gathering of Beyonders held nearby, the location of the underground trading market, and... what are the more valuable pirates in Bayam?"

Angel immediately took over and asked very quickly.

Alger was relieved when he heard that the request was not difficult to solve, but then he was shocked by the boldness of the other party.

"At sea, never discuss other people's bounty casually like this. Some people think bounty is an honor, but more people will think you are provoking."

He first persuaded in a low voice, being very worried that this follower of the Fool would hunt down pirates to make extra money while "performing his official duties", causing Bayam to get into a mess by the way, and then continued to introduce the nearby Extraordinary gathering. .

Angel carefully memorized the times and places of several gatherings. It wasn't until the Hanged Man talked about several pirate strongholds that Bayam had traces of that he began to really take it seriously and sit up straight.

"Here is controlled by the Church of Storms and the Punishers, as well as demigods stationed here. Most of the pirates on the list will not enter Bayam openly, but the seven pirate generals have their own contact points in this city. I know a few."

I also know that the contact point of "Vice Admiral Iceberg" was "taken" to me by her fourth boatswain... Angel thought and nodded:

"You said."

"There are rumors that Old Quinn, who often hangs around the Sweet Leaf Bar, serves the Blood Admiral. Although he himself is not valuable, he always receives people from Senior. They are all very valuable..."

"The 'Blood Admiral' with 42000 pounds?"

Angel interrupted the Hanged Man and asked, as if commenting on a clearly priced product.

Madman... But she does have this strength. I remember that Backlund's Aurora Order envoy and a "shepherd" died in her hands... Alger pursed his lips, nodded and replied:

"It's him.

"In addition, the owner of the Xiangleaf Bar, 'Hercules' Ozil is a pirate who has washed his hands of the golden basin, but he seems to still have contact with several pirate generals, helping them do some dirty work, and promulgating it to the adventurers in Bayam Task, if you want to guard the pirates who have landed on the beach, you can try to start with him.

"He also runs a gathering of extraordinary people, which is held every Sunday night."

...

After writing down this information, Angel breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to the Hanged Man:

"Thanks for the tip, you're still as knowledgeable and helpful as you were there."

Even in the deserted corner of the bar, she still avoided mentioning the words "Tarot Society".

Helpful? I?

Alger wanted to laugh a little, but he couldn't laugh anymore as he recalled the changes he had made after joining the Tarot Club and was surprised that he had indeed helped many people "for free" in the past few months.

After agreeing with him to help claim the bounty and share it in proportion to the Hanged Man, Angel left the "Sea and Fire" bar first, while Alger left through the back door ten minutes later, as if he was only in the bar. He just had a drink and walked home smelling of alcohol.

As for the contact between the two, after they have confirmed each other's identities, Mr. Fool can relay it on his behalf. It is more concealed and safer than communication potions or regular meetings that can easily expose the identity.

"While the 'Queen' is staying in Bayam, I might be able to use her power to complete some things that were inconvenient to do before, and... can I get 20% of the bounty for her? Hey, I know a lot of people. For those who sneaked ashore for the sake of the 'Red Theater' and fine wine and food, it's time to take out the money stored in their heads..."

With a smile on his lips, the Hanged Man thought silently.

"In this way, I will still have a lot of savings after solving the Wind Blessed One formula. Alas, the Wind Blessed One is only Sequence 6, and the 'Queen' may have killed more than one of the Sequence 5... In addition to the mysterious 'World', I'm afraid she is already the strongest member of the Tarot Club... I wonder what sequence Mr. World is in, where he is now, and what he is doing?"

----

"Two servings of the specialty 'grilled fish' and two glasses of Sunian blood wine."

Smelling the aroma wafting from the next table, Klein sniffed and said to the waiter waiting to take his order.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 418 Escape under the sunset

Not long after, two plates with grilled fish were placed in front of Angel and Klein, along with two glasses of attractive-colored Sonia blood wine.

The Rhoside Islands, also known as the "Spice Islands", produce a variety of exotic spices. After being developed by the Kingdom of Loen, countless plantations took root here, and the expensive spices were transported back to the Northern Continent through maritime trade. into gold pounds.

This is also the origin of the name of Bayam, the capital of Rhoside and the "City of Generosity". The first colonists believed that this rich island was the land of treasures promised by the gods.

For Angel, the gold, silver, copper and iron deposits in the Rhoside Islands, the wood with different uses, and the colonists' exploitation of the local area were all a bit out of reach, but the various spices, known or unknown, spread on the grilled fish were real. The aroma rose from the ground and went straight to her brain through her nostrils.

"Sure enough, this is the specialty of this restaurant…"

She sighed and touched the knife and fork to enjoy the food, but found that the waiter handed over two rough wooden sticks that were thick at one end and thin at the other.

This...this can't be chopsticks, right?

Looking around, Angel successfully discovered that most of the diners who ordered the grilled fish were using these two wooden sticks to hold the fish into their mouths. Some of them moved clumsily and dropped the fish on the plate from time to time, but most of them dropped the fish on the plate. Most people use "chopsticks" skillfully, like another pair of fingers.

"You should use this kind of tableware when eating grilled fish. It is said that..."

"Great Emperor Russell, right?"

Angel nodded clearly and interrupted the waiter's introduction.

"Yes, he got inspiration from the ancient customs of elves."

The waiter still briefly introduced this history before slowly retreating. He is a native of the Rhoside Islands, and his skin color is darker than that of people from the Southern Continent, with a bronze color that has been exposed to too much sun. It reminds Angel of Mr. Azik, whom Angel has not seen for a while.

Following the example of the person at the table holding the chopsticks in his right hand, Angel awkwardly used them to poke open the belly of the grilled fish, barely managed to hold a piece of plump fish belly covered in spices and sauces, put his mouth over it, and was about to put it into his mouth, but... Carefully pinch off the fish meat and drop them back onto the dinner plate.

Klein, who was sitting across from him, used his chopsticks to dip a large piece of fish in the sauce and put it into his mouth like a show off. He chuckled and said:

"Do you need me to teach you?"

Why are you so skilled... Angel picked up a piece of fish again as if she was angry. This time she was careful not to use too much force, and finally put the fish into her mouth and tasted the deliciousness of this special dish.

Seeing that she learned it quickly, Klein looked away boredly and asked after a moment:

"You went to see the Fool believer yesterday. Did you gain anything?"

"I asked for some clues about pirates and found out a few places where Extraordinaries gather. The closest one is tonight, but I have to meet an old friend in the afternoon and guard Daniz's contact point in the evening. I may not be able to make it in time. superior."

"Well, then let's split up. I'll go to the Extraordinary gathering and I'll go squat with Daniz to see if I can get information about other pirates... Who is the old friend you're talking about?"

Klein was talking while eating fish at first, but then the conversation changed and he asked, and the chopsticks in his hand stopped.

"The 'MI9' hunter Dominic I mentioned to you last time."

Angel became more proficient with his chopsticks and quickly finished half of the grilled fish. He drank a large sip of Sunia's blood wine and answered casually.

Seeing that Klein looked a little weird, she quickly added:

"Remember his underage girlfriend? The one who became a 'divineer'."

"I remember, it was them..."

Hearing this, Klein picked up the wine glass with a smile and took a sip of the blood wine, attracting Angel's curious gaze.

----

Towards evening, Angel came to the "Sea and Fire" bar again, and under the guidance of the bartender, he found "Lucky Nick" in the small room on the second floor.

Fortunately, she was lucky this time and did not choose the wrong "Nick" in the two-choice problem. The person sitting in the private room provided for drinkers to rest and entertain was none other than Dominic, whom she worked with in Backlund.

"Intelligence, commission, or transaction?"

The person he saw was an unknown woman. This former member of MI9, with short black hair and a coat casually draped over her face, was a little unmotivated and asked casually.

"I'm here to find someone who is proficient in divination. I heard that you know such a girl?"

Angel asked softly, instantly attracting the other person's wary gaze.

"I know many fortune-tellers, some who play tarot cards in fortune-telling rooms, and some who are 'real'. Which one are you asking about?"

he asked cautiously.

"Of course it can be truly divination, such as finding out the location of the Difference Engine manuscript..."

Angel said, pointing to his forehead, removing the disguise of the "faceless man", and after a burst of muscle and skin squirming, his face returned to its original appearance.

The moment he saw the change in her face, Dominic jumped up from the sofa and was about to open the window and jump off the second floor.

It wasn't until he saw Angel's face clearly that he relaxed and sat down on the sofa again.

"You scared me, I thought..."

he murmured.

"Why? Faceless Man? 'Eighth Game'?"

Angel sat on another single sofa by the window, poured himself a cup of coffee, and asked with a smile.

"More than that, people who want to kill me can line up from Pelican Street to Alfalfa Avenue, but how do you know about the 'eighth inning'..." Dominic didn't seem to expect to get the answer to this question, so he added it to himself. After taking a sip of the scalding coffee, he breathed out the hot breath and continued to ask:

"Why did you come to Bayam? Did you finally have trouble surviving in Backlund and fled overseas?"

"Although I feel that you are provoking, I am indeed right about this sentence. I escaped from Backlund."

Angel replied, resisting the urge to punch him.

"As expected, otherwise you wouldn't have thought of asking for my help... By the way, I saw a wanted poster for the Church of Storms yesterday. The woman who killed their bishop couldn't be you, right?"

"What bishop?"

She was pretending to be stupid.

"I don't think it could be you. How could any fool dare to provoke those angry guys at sea? It's simply too long to live."

"Yeah, how could it be?"

Angel felt that the opponent's "provocateur" potion should have been digested long ago.

After the exchange of pleasantries, Dominic stood up from the sofa, carefully closed the window, drew the curtains, and locked the door. Then he got to the point and asked softly:

"Do you know about the 'Great Smog' situation in Backlund at the beginning of the month?"

I came to you to ask for information, why did you ask me first... Angel curled his lips and selectively told this information dealer the relevant information he heard from Audrey.

"The Witch Cult, it's them again!" Dominic gritted his teeth once again hearing about the secret sect that forced him and Sonia to leave their hometown. "What's the final result? I read in the newspaper that a lot of people died, but there are no more for the time being. The news is coming."

"It is said that a high-sequence official Beyonder was dispatched to deal with the witch who released the plague. The three major sects forced the royal family to make a lot of concessions, but the specific reforms may not be until after the New Year. The plague in the city has not yet been completely eradicated. Many people After temporarily escaping the city, the streets became a lot more depressed."

After all, he was still from Loen. After hearing that the situation was under control, Dominic's expression improved a little. He tried to talk to Angel about the specific policy changes, but the latter had almost forgotten it after listening to the Hanged Man's analysis. He wasn't given much of a chance.

"Where's Sonia? She's also in Bayam, living with you?"

After getting another cup of coffee, Angel changed the topic to a lighter topic.

"She is not yet an adult. I want her to continue studying at the grammar school in Bayam, but she doesn't agree. She only wants to study divination, and even wants to learn from me in the intelligence business. After becoming an Extraordinary, I felt that there was something wrong with her. So obedient..."

Dominic replied with a grimace.

The minds and experiences of minors are not enough to allow them to face huge changes in their identity. This may be the reason why Sonia has some rebellious emotions. Angel thought of his "assassin" Sherman. After he became an extraordinary person, My mentality has also changed significantly, but it is in a good direction, becoming more confident and public.

Sonia has lost her parents, and she only has Dominic, who is not much older than her, as a companion. She may lack a guide...

But Angel didn't have much choice, he could only laugh a few words with the mentality of watching the young couple's jokes.

When the other party's mood improved slightly, Angel asked about Bayam's local Beyonder gathering, pirate information and other issues. He wanted to compare it with the information provided by "The Hanged Man", and was surprised to find that the two information were exactly the same. She He asked doubtfully:

"You don't know a middle-aged man with dark blue hair, do you?"

"Do you know Alger Wilson? He did provide a lot of my information. This guy has a ghost ship and dozens of sailors. He is very powerful, but there is no bounty on his head. He is probably from the Church of Storms. , do their dirty work for them."

Dominic replied casually.

Sure enough, "The Hanged Man" is also one of his clients, but his name is actually Alger Wilson... Wait, he won't be the one who assisted the local Extraordinary to destroy the fake Tarot Club in Port Enmat before." Mr. Wilson of the Church of Storms, right? Mr. Hanged Man is really passionate about protecting our reputation!

she sighed.

After verifying the authenticity of the information, there was no need for Angel to stay any longer. She said goodbye to the successful intelligence dealer, reminded him of Sonia's education issues, and left the bar.

"Huh, huh-"

Daniz's chest felt like it was on fire. He was breathing heavily, but he felt that the air could not enter his lungs at all. The alley in front of him seemed to be shaking, and the sunset in the distance became unreal.

He knew that he could not hold on for much longer. "Iron" Maiviti's swift and fatal sneak attack pierced his lungs, causing him to bleed profusely and unable to breathe. His spirit body had almost left his body and entered the legendary underworld.

Just fall down like this and stop working hard... As soon as such an idea came to his mind, he killed it hard.

No, I have to find someone... Where are the other sailors waiting to be contacted? Are they nearby?

The only belief that supported Daniz was to pass on the news that the contact point was controlled by people sent by "Admiral Blood". He looked around, his blurry eyes saw the flow of people passing through the alley, and he knew that it was best now. The only way to do it is to rush into the streets, die in the crowd, and shout out what you want to say.

In this way, relevant information should appear in the next day's newspaper. At least "Fire Flame" Daniz's sudden death on the street can alert his colleagues and allow his captain to guess the truth.

He used his hands and feet to hold on to the low wall beside him, and walked step by step towards the entrance of the alley, with a continuous trail of blood behind him.

There are still twenty meters... no, twenty-five meters?

He could hardly think anymore and could only move forward by instinct.

Swah——

A figure appeared in front of Daniz out of thin air.

Is "Steel" catching up?

He looked up in despair and found that the light blond hair and purple eyes that he had cursed more than once on the White Onyx now looked extremely cute.

Chapter 419 Last Words

Angel subconsciously gave up his position, allowing Daniz to fall forward on his own, but after realizing that he was indeed seriously injured, he reached out to support him and gently laid him flat on the ground.

"what happened?"

She asked, checking the other party's injuries and found that there were three wounds in total, but the fatal location was a blunt force penetrating injury on the right chest. Broken ribs and internal organs could be seen in the depths, and blood foam was flowing outward with gas. squirt.

A very serious injury. Even an extraordinary person will die in ten minutes at most, but I can...

As soon as she took out the magic pocket watch, she heard Daniz cough violently several times. After coughing up a mouthful of bloody sputum, he looked at her with dark blue eyes that had lost focus and said very fast:

"Help me, help me, tell the captain that Old Lynn has been exposed and the contact point is occupied by 'Iron' Maiviti. They are here for the treasure..."

After arriving in Byam, Angel strengthened his memory of pirates with bounties of more than 3000 pounds, so he immediately remembered the pirate he mentioned, the second mate of "Blood Admiral" Senior, worth Same as her.

"...Ask her to help me get revenge," Daniz continued panting without noticing the excited light representing the gold pound in Angel's eyes, "Also, all the money I saved was used to buy Bayam's real estate. On the Boulevard des Argentines, Nos. 12 to 16, supporting documents, in the basement of No. 13... Ask her to sell it for me and take the money to my parents, in Intis, Nosier in Intis, just Say, say I made a fortune at sea..."

"...Say that I have become, become an outstanding adventurer...Again, tell me, I'm sorry..."

After giving his last words, Daniz's last insistence on not falling down finally dissipated. He slowly released his hand holding Angel's trouser leg, making a "ho ho" sound in his mouth, and blood foam poured out of his throat. His eyes looked towards the gradually dimming sky, the light in his pupils lost, as if he were seeing elderly parents whom he had not seen for many years.

Dad...Mom...

He moved his lips silently.

Just as he was dying, Daniz heard a voice that seemed to come from afar:

"Are you a player or a foot? Left or right?"

What?

Due to blood loss and lack of oxygen, his brain had become sluggish and he could not understand the meaning of this sentence at all, so he subconsciously raised his left hand.

The next second, the blond woman in his eyes was holding a brass pocket watch with one hand, stroking his chest with the other hand, and then pressing on his left arm.

"Hoo, ho, cough cough -"

The ups and downs of his chest immediately became powerful, and a big hole was opened, so that the lungs that could not maintain breathing struggled to inhale the salty sea air, helping him to cough up the bloody phlegm in his throat, while the left hand that was touched seemed to be broken. Usually severe pain.

What...what's going on?

Daniz took a few deep breaths and felt his soul return to his body again. Then he struggled to sit up and looked at his severely painful left arm. The arm that was bent at a strange angle was constantly gushing out from under his sleeve. There was blood, but the chest that had just been punched by Maiviti was now intact.

He slowly moved his gaze to the woman squatting in front of him, and saw a smile on her lips. The brass pocket watch in her hand had just been closed, and its rough surface shone beautifully in the sunset.

"You saved me just now? But why didn't you do it earlier?"

he asked in a daze.

"I want to see what other treasures you have hidden besides real estate. Besides, it is polite to listen to someone's last words."

Seeing that Daniz had recovered from his serious injury, Angel stood up, looked in the direction he came from, and replied smoothly, with a smile that could not be concealed on his lips.

Over there is the pier, and thick smoke is already rising from the contact point of the "Golden Dream". I don't know if it was the destruction caused by Daniz and "Steel" Maiviti just now, or the other party was so angry that he let the target escape. Vent anger.

But the alley was empty, and no one from the "Blood Admiral" was chasing after him.

Angel lowered his head again and saw that Daniz's face was flushed, and even the paleness after blood loss was covered by anger. But the next second, he successfully adjusted his emotions, slowly got up from the ground, and used his healthy He patted the dust on his body with one hand, squeezed out a smile and said:

"Thank you for your courtesy."

The feeling of returning to the White Onyx made the "pain" potion in Angel's body digest a little. She nodded slightly and asked:

"Do you have a place to live? Or are you going to find another place to hide?"

Daniz also covered his injured left arm, looked in the direction of the smoke and fire, and answered after a moment:

"There is a temporary residence, but it is likely that they have discovered it. 'Iron' Maiviti and his men will definitely be looking for my traces in Bayam to prevent me from telling the captain about their actions. I have to leave as soon as possible, otherwise..."

He froze suddenly.

Wait, why do you continue to run away?

"Iron" Maiviti is just Senior's second officer, at most Sequence 6. Of course, he is much stronger than me... But the woman in front of me can easily kill the Bishop of the Church of Storms with one hand. The powerful Beyonder who hung me out of the porthole, her... is also a crazy adventurer who is no less dangerous than her. They will definitely not be afraid of Maiviti...

The most important thing is that Maiviti has a bounty of 6000 pounds, and he also has several vicious criminals with bounties of more than pounds!

Taking a deep breath, Daniz recalled the social etiquette and the tips on "how to impress others" that the captain had taught him. He opened and closed his mouth, finally spit, and said with a fake look:

"Are you interested in getting the 6000-pound bounty of 'Iron' Maiviti?"

Seeing Angel's eyes light up, he knew that he had made the right bet. "You come to our residence first and tell us about his situation in detail, but..." Angel suppressed his inner desire for gold pounds and looked at the normal pocket watch, "In about seven minutes, you may have to help me find it. A road without gaslights."

----

woohoo hoo...

did not expect...

This woman is actually afraid of fire now?

Standing in the corner of the dim living room, looking at Angel who was curled up on the sofa, avoiding the light that penetrated the room from the window, Daniz could barely suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth. Even the pain of the fracture in his left arm seemed not that noticeable. .

He wanted to use his extraordinary ability to draw out a bright fire right now and see what extraordinary behavior the other party would do under extreme fear.

Then, see if you are polite in return?

But the last rational thought in his mind stopped him.

She endured the negative effects of magical items just to save me... Ask yourself, if a pirate I'm not familiar with is about to die in front of me, and I need to endure the negative effects for a long time to save him, I probably won't be able to do it. This determination... Daniz thought about it and suppressed the hand that was about to raise and release the flame.

Of course, this gratitude is only part of the reason, well, about 10%.

The remaining 90% of the reason was provided by Gehrman Sparrow, who was standing behind Angel's sofa, having taken off his top hat and woolen coat, staring at him with an unfriendly expression.

As long as there is a spark on the tip of my finger, he will swallow me whole in the next second... Daniz had such a premonition for no reason, and quickly put away his teasing thoughts and said seriously:

"We, I mean the 'Golden Dream', once found a huge black iron key in a sunken ship. It was almost as big as a steering wheel and could only be picked up with both hands. It had been sunk in the sea for who knows how many years. It didn't matter at all. No rust.

"Before the captain had time to figure out what it was, the news leaked out. Countless pirates believed that it was the legendary 'Death's Key', which could unlock the treasures left by the God of Death and make people immortal and rich.

"We tried to clarify, but no one believed it, and now, even Blood Admiral and his lackeys have joined the ranks of these madmen. His second officer, 'Iron' McVitie, attacked the contact point today. , detained a few sailors who were selling fake goods, and waited for me to come..."

"And then you almost got killed."

Klein said softly, his tone was calm, but it sounded very sarcastic in Daniz's ears.

"Yes," he nodded and answered honestly, "I used a certain magical item to escape pursuit and was rescued by Miss Angelica, which gave me an idea..."

"I can provide information about Maiviti and the men he brought ashore. Their reward totals are at least eight or nine thousand pounds. My only request is that you kill all these people and leave no one behind." ."

He swallowed his anger and didn't even care about the other party's ridicule. His purpose was to retaliate with tooth and kill "Iron" Maiviti who killed old Linn and other sailors!

At this moment, Daniz hoped that the man and woman in front of him were really as powerful and crazy as they appeared.

After all, knowing that the opponent is the "Blood Admiral" who is famous for his cruelty, even the captain who is also a pirate general will act cautiously and even consider giving up revenge for the time being.

"You tell me about the 'Blood Admiral' and his men, who they are, what abilities they have, and what evil they have done, and then we will make a decision."

Angel looked at Daniz, whose expression was changing constantly, and imitated Klein's tone, feeling a little funny in his heart.

From each other's narration, the two quickly learned about the "heroic deeds" of one of the seven pirate generals, the "Blood Admiral" Senior.

This general did not comply with the rules set by "King of the Five Seas" Nast. After robbing a passenger ship, he would indulge his subordinates in massacre of captives. He also liked to ravage beautiful girls and sell them to the navy and the Church of Storms in the archipelago. Corners that cannot be controlled.

Supporting his evil deeds is a pirate fleet of eight ships. The flagship is the "Tree of Flesh". It is suspected that the extraordinary ability of Sequence 5 can cause the people who face him to die bizarrely, such as strangling himself, detonating bombs, and jumping. Entering the boiler can also turn Senior into a ghost, pass through the cabin, and directly attack the enemy from behind.

He has ten pirates with bounties on his men, the first mate, second mate, and third mate of the flagship, as well as the captains of each ship. Their "worth" is also arranged accordingly. This time he came to Bayam to look for the "Key to Death" The one who had the clue was his second officer, "Steel" Maiviti.

The latter's body is as hard as steel, and his fists can directly penetrate the body of the extraordinary. He is invulnerable, not afraid of fire and drowning, and can wake up corpses and turn them into puppets.

When they landed this time, Maiviti also brought several subordinates, all of whom were Sequence 8 or 7 Beyonders. Together with the living corpse puppets controlled by him, the team had a large number of people and was not weak in strength. Even if the local "representatives" "Punisher" team, it is very difficult to deal with these pirates without a sealed artifact.

After presenting everything he knew, Daniz looked at the two people in front of him helplessly, expecting their answers.

"Ding--"

After unabashedly performing a coin divination in front of him, Klein nodded to Angel, who understood and said with a smile:

"'Blood Admiral' is a bit far away from Bayam. I feel that there is nothing I can do for the time being..."

Seeing that Daniz's disappointment was palpable, she slowly added:

"So, let's accept the head and bounty of 'Iron' Maiviti first."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 420 Desire for Promotion

Of course, even if the bounty of "Iron" Maiviti is reserved, a Sequence 6 Beyonder is not so easy to find.

Angel learned from the Hanged Man and Dominic that the Blood Admiral's intelligence officer Quinn often haunted the Sweet Leaf Bar. Perhaps he could use this to guard Maiviti, but the process would be very long and he might even miss the most important information. It's a good time for these pirates to leave Bayam and return to the sea.

Another method is the "bait plan", using things that Steel is interested in, such as the Death Key, or "Flame" Daniz who knows the Death Key information, to lure these pirates to appear on their own initiative and catch them all in one fell swoop.

After a short discussion, Daniz "happily" chose the second option. Considering that his hand injury was not yet healed, Angel temporarily sent him to inquire about intelligence nearby and release some false news to see if there was any chance to directly Catch that big fish.

As for Angel and Klein, they need to prepare for the Tarot session the next day, which is Monday, so more arrangements can only be decided on Monday night.

----

Late night, Bansi Island.

The strong winds and thick fog that often harassed this "Weather Museum" in the past have long disappeared. There are three huge sailboats parked at the pier, with the sails embroidered with the wind, waves and thunder representing the storm.

In the town square, headless corpses with heads trailing long "tails" were piled together, waiting to be burned.

This made Port Bansi look like it had experienced a tragic massacre, but there was not a drop of blood on the ground, and there was only the smell of decay in the air.

A punisher and an armed sailor are still searching and digging around the port to remove all living corpses and heads that have been resurrected in ancient sacrifices or have not yet been resurrected. They do not hesitate to use powerful extraordinary bullets, " "Storm" talisman, advancing the front line like a destructive force.

The doors and windows of the local residents' buildings were closed. This time, the people standing behind the windows were not expressionless locals, but frightened and confused faces. They could not see the scene outside the town, but The gunshots and thunderstorms that rang out from time to time still made them restless.

I hope that everything will end as soon as possible and Bansi can return to its former peace... The residents prayed like this, most to the Lord of Storms, and a few to the ancient "God of Weather".

At the same time, on the high mountain next to the port, in the cave sealed with rocks by the punishers, the long-dried blood turned bright red, and the gray rock walls became bright. In this bright color like an oil painting, a group of people wearing tuxedos , a figure wearing a top hat walked out of the void.

He has bronze skin and a small mole under his right ear. He is Azik Eggers, who is searching the world for his lost memory.

Although he could see in the dark, the rigorous habits he had developed through long-term teaching still allowed him to rub the spiritual fire and light the ceremonial candles that had not been moved away by the punishers, filling the cave with warm light, making it even more apparent. Those bloodstains in the corners were eerie.

He held two pieces of letter paper in one hand and brushed the altar that was broken into several pieces in the middle of the cave with the other hand. Miraculously, the altar was put back together under the influence of invisible force. The grooves above were clearly visible. The mysterious rune pattern drawn on the letter paper.

"It seems like this is it..."

Azik frowned, seeming to recall something. After a moment, he stood on the altar without any other movement. The dried blood in the corner seemed to come alive, flowing up the altar on its own, filling up the symbols. , texture.

Clenching the letter with some anticipation, Azik waited for a while, but did not notice any changes on the altar.

Thinking of Klein and Angel's description of that day's events in the letter, he stretched out his fingers and dripped a few drops of his own blood, mixed with the activated dirty blood, making them bright red, as if the entire cave was filled with a trace of blood. The breath of death.

But there was still no movement on the altar, as if the "power" belonging to it rejected the high-sequence extraordinary person in front of him.

"It turns out that this is not death, but..."

Azik murmured, looking northwest, penetrating through the thick rock walls, traveling thousands of kilometers of space, and looking at Trier, the capital of the Republic of Intis.

The next second, the scene around him turned into a thick oil painting, and the space twisted like water ripples, wrapping the amnesiac undead and taking him away from Bansi Island.

At the foot of the mountain, the first flames of burning corpses were just burning.

----

Crimson light flashed one after another, and the members of the Tarot Society once again came to the towering palace shrouded in gray mist.

Angel quickly scanned around the long bronze table and found that there were not many people, not too few. Mr. Fool at the top, in the world opposite him, there were Justice and Magician on his side, and on the other side were the Hanged Man, the Sun, moon.

Very neatly arranged, making her feel comfortable.

After Miss Justice's routine greetings, Angel couldn't wait to look at The Fool:

"Mr. Fool, this time I found three pages of Emperor Russell's diary for you."

There were actually five pages, but she planned to submit part of it first and save the rest to cover the gap when she couldn't find the diary.

While she was calculating like this, she could feel the Fool's gaze sweeping over her body, making the hairs on her non-spiritual body stand up one by one.

After a while, a pen and paper appeared in front of Angel. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly manifested the diary she had long remembered in her mind and presented it to this mysterious being.

No one else found any new diaries this week, and Mr. Fool quickly finished reading them, allowing the Tarot Club to enter free communication time.

"Mr. Fool, Mr. Hanged Man, and everyone else, thanks to your help, I finally got rid of that terrible cycle, and the expedition team is on its way back to Silver City."

Mr. Taiyang was the first to speak and sincerely expressed his gratitude to everyone.

Only by experiencing it can you understand the horror of spending the same day and experiencing the same things over and over again in the ruins of the real Creator under the abandoned temple. What's even more troublesome is that he is the only one in the entire expedition who is aware of it due to the power of Mr. Fool While experiencing the cycle, other people, even the chief minister who entered the high sequence, did not feel any abnormality at all.

If it weren't for Mr. Fool, they would probably all die in the depths of the ruins...

Next, Derrick "The Sun" talked about his experience of escaping from trouble.

After getting the hint from the Hanged Man, he tried to change his behavior in another cycle, giving himself the opportunity to explore other areas, and found a mural depicting the "Rose of Redemption", on which a group of pilgrims were painted. The monk is a silver-haired angel. At his feet is a river that connects end to end and circulates back and forth.

According to the "chief" of Silver City, the silver-haired angel is one of the eight kings of angels surrounding the legendary god who created everything. The angel of destiny, "Tail Eater" Ouroleus, and another king of angels, " The angel of time, Amon, is in the same person.

The circulating river is often related to destiny. According to this prompt, he led the chief to attack the mysterious little boy Jack in another restart of the exploration, cut off a human face on his chest, and destroyed this... A trace of the power of destiny belonging to the "Tail Swallower" shattered the "River of Destiny" that shrouded the ruins and could not leave, saving the entire expedition team.

In the process, they finally confirmed that the little boy Jack came from "Port Enmat" and confirmed the connection between the world where Silver City is located and the world where other Tarot Society members are located.

Everyone was a little excited to see the "Rose of Redemption" mural that he embodied. Considering that the twisted mural of "Six Gods" that they saw last week was more than two thousand years old, this "Rose of Redemption" was at least a work of the same era. They all had the pleasure of "peeping into history."

Unfortunately, Mr. Sun's wonderful adventure has come to an end after terminating the cycle. More fresh news may have to wait until he returns to Silver City and asks from the little boy Jack.

"Mr. Hanged Man," seeing that Derrick stopped talking, "Justice" Audrey looked at another elder member, "I have found the 'Wind Blessed' formula you need, and the 'Psychological Alchemy Society' is offering a price. 3000 pounds, or a magical item of slightly lower value, if you agree, we can trade it tomorrow."

3000 pounds... This is more than the common price of a Sequence 6 potion recipe. Is the other party taking advantage of this opportunity to demand a high price? No, maybe I just want to guide traders to exchange magical items for...

Angel guessed and looked at the Hanged Man, who nodded decisively:

"I will prepare the corresponding magical items. In addition, the item you ordered will be completed next week. Please prepare the corresponding expenses in advance."

After knowing that the "Queen" could easily defeat the "Wind Blessed One" Bishop, Alger's desire for promotion was extremely strong!

As a Sequence 7 "Navigator", he was a little wary of even meeting the "Queen" in reality, fearing that if he was not careful, he would participate in the Tarot Club next week in another form.

"The extraordinary characteristics of 'Navigator', only selling for 1500 pounds"

Alger seemed to hear the voice of Miss "Queen" selling her own characteristics. Although he knew that Mr. Fool would not allow members to kill each other, this gap in strength still made him involuntarily think in this direction.

Angel, who was afraid of him, was thinking about another thing. She recalled the three-way transaction between Justice, the World, and the Hanged Man in the Tarot Club last week, and she became increasingly curious about this "predetermined item."

"Miss Justice, I have also obtained the 'Mirror Dragon Blood' and 'Fruit of the Elder Tree' that you need. Together with my 100 pounds reward, the total is 850 pounds. They belong to you."

"Moon" Emlyn saw that the transaction was in full swing and took the initiative to say to Audrey who was diagonally across from him. He tried his best to keep his tone calm, but a trace of eagerness was still easily captured by the audience.

Mr. Moon is short of money? Well, he seems to want to buy the extraordinary characteristics of the vampire baron. Maybe I can take advantage of this. Haha, after the New Year, I will have a lot of money again. Dad also promised me that I can reimburse the cost of the magical items I acquired. …

Audrey thought about it, nodded quickly and agreed, agreeing to conduct the transaction in the form of "sacrifice" tomorrow.

After that, Miss Magician bought the "blood of deep-sea marlin" she needed from the Hanged Man for 320 pounds. Angel knew that this was one of the main ingredients of the Sequence 8 "Master of Magic" potion, and the other one A piece of material, the "Stomach Pouch of the Soul Eater", can only be exchanged for Mr. Sun's contribution to this exploration after he returns to Silver City.

At the same time, he is also preparing to try his best to learn about the various materials that Silver City possesses and that the monsters wandering around the city can obtain, provide the list to the members of the Tarot Society, and obtain his own share of the benefits from the transaction.

This shows that Mr. "Sun", who was originally a bit naive and shy, has quickly matured in Tarot Club.

The "Magician" Forsi opposite him was excitedly looking forward to the moment when she would be promoted to Sequence 8. She had been working hard for it for several years. At this moment, the magic potion was so close that she couldn't help herself.

But looking at the Tarot Club members around her whose rankings were higher than hers, this excitement quickly dissipated in the wind.

Seeing that everyone's transaction was completed, Angel cleared her throat, drew everyone's attention to her, and then said slowly:

"Last week, I was in Bansi Port and I encountered a strange thing."
