Don't confiscate my citizenship

A full moon hung high over the port of Hasel, and the cold moonlight fell on the calm river, glowing with reddish dots.

This is a moated port located on the southeast side of the capital Brilda.

In the distance from Hasel Port is the stronghold of the Brilda Mafia, which is apparently a company with a registered license.

"leader."

The buildings on the shore stood in the night. Several figures appeared at the port. They passed through the guards of the mafia elite and arrived in front of the tallest black building under the salute of the mafia.

"Within one hour, do not allow any cadres to enter the second floor of Hasel Building and wait outside."

The leader was wearing a dark black coat, and his hood trembled slightly in the night wind. The shadow covered most of his face, only revealing a pair of cold eyes.

"yes."

His steps were light and agile, and with him taking the lead, no mafia dared to hesitate. He led several people through the dark shadows cast by the buildings, and it was almost impossible to catch his figure.

When a ray of moonlight from the floor-to-ceiling window illuminated him again, his resolute and handsome face was finally revealed, with a head of dark gray hair hanging down in front of his forehead.

Professor Landry and his two students followed Barton.

They put on the animal masks that Barton gave them.

In order to prevent other members of the mafia from seeing Professor Landry coming to their mafia base.

After walking a few steps inside the building, there were no other mafia figures anywhere.

Barton quickened his pace. Inside the building, the dark yellow floor lamp cast a long shadow behind them.

"This is the Hasel Building, which is also the main building of the Blilda Mafia. Only the leader and cadres and some authorized members can enter."

Barton led Lanqi up one level at a time.

The interior decoration of Hasel Building is more classical, mostly using black and brown stone bricks, and has the style of a century-old high-end hotel.

"I will find a way to convince your boss."

Lan Qi understood that Barton was telling him about the concealment here on the one hand, and the danger of Hassel House on the other hand——

Whatever accident happened, no one else would know.

This is a hidden area where there is no place for death.

"The person you are going to meet later... is very manic right now, and there is a high probability that he will not give you a chance to speak."

Barton told Landry as he walked based on his understanding of the boss.

He didn't have a bad impression of this reasonable professor from St. Creation's Monastery. At least a man who was willing to break into the mafia hinterland alone for the sake of his students couldn't be a bad guy.

And most importantly, he has the will to fight against the vampires.

"That means I probably have to block her first wave of attacks?"

Lan Qi analyzed such an answer.

Meeting and starting a fight may be a form of exchange of force, but it is also a test.

"That's right, otherwise she will probably attack your throat directly, leaving you unable to speak and disturbing her thinking."

Patton agreed.

"Well……"

Lan Qi always felt a bit familiar with this method of hitting someone and covering their mouth first.

"what's on your mind?"

Thalia questioned, placing an invisible hand on his neck.

"Can you put your hands down first before you speak, Master?"

Lan Qi had no doubts.

Soon, Barton led them to his office and stopped in front of a wall-like bookshelf.

His hands adjusted the positions of the books on the bookshelf in an unknown order. With a slight clicking sound from the metal collision, the seemingly normal bookshelf slowly opened, revealing the depth hidden behind it. Corridor.

"You two ladies, you can stop now."

Barton turned back and said to Elsa and Ursula.

Continuing further down, there is an area that he and Landry can enter. The two students can just stay in this safe leader's office.

He didn't mind letting them see the mafia door.

Because the two of them are destined to have only two endings today, either leaving smoothly with Landry, or staying in the Brilda Mafia with Landry.

"Brother, please be safe."

Elsa thought for a while and handed the little black cat back to her brother.

She still wanted to keep her brother as safe as possible.

Boss Cat hesitated and looked in both directions.

Lan Qi should need it to go to dangerous places, and it also needs to protect Elsa.

"No matter what happens to you next, I will try my best to ensure their safety."

Patton assured Ranch exactly.

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Button."

Lan Qi nodded.

Thalia judged that Barton was telling the truth just now, and told him in Lanqi's mind.

"Meow, here I come, meow."

Seeing this, the cat boss also jumped into Lan Qi's shadow.

Since Elsa is safe, she has nothing to worry about. It is safer to fly the Ranch body.

"Let's talk about things in peace, Professor. I'm here and Elsa won't be bored."

Ursula slapped the back of her hand and said to Professor Landry.

"Well, I'll see you later."

Lan Qi nodded.

Barton has also walked towards the passage inside the bookshelf.

Lan Qi followed Barton into the tunnel without hesitation. The forbidden magic steel on the inside of the bookshelf quietly closed behind him, as if it had never been opened.

The interior of the corridor was dimly lit, with a flickering light every few meters emitting a faint light.

The air was filled with an indescribable chill, as if they were about to enter an ice cave.

Barton led Lanci through this maze-like underground passage, his steps firm and swift, knowing this secret passage well.

He turned a confusing bend after another, passed through several closed doors of anti-magic steel, and finally stopped in front of a silver-white helicopter.

"How strong is your boss?"

While waiting, Lanci asked the mafia leader Barton beside him.

In Talia's opinion, Barton Hall was already a top-notch imperial man.

If he still stayed in the military, he would at least be a major general, which would pose a great threat to the Allies.

"Only in her can I see a little hope of fighting against the vampires, although it is slim, but at least it is not zero."

Barton replied lightly.

He placed his palm on the central control panel, and the helicopter creaked open. He walked in with Professor Landry. Without any operation, the helicopter began to close and descend rapidly.

Every few meters down, a ray of white light flashed on the walls around the elevator, illuminating Barton's stern face in the elevator car.

"..."

Lanqi stood in the elevator car and stopped talking.

It might be impolite to ask more.

Barton, who was always easy to talk to, did not reveal his boss's strength to him. This was Barton's loyalty to his boss.

However, Lanqi also made some inferences accordingly.

In order to check and balance the blood clan, at least the core combat power of the eighth level must be required. If there is not even the eighth level, it will not pose a threat to the blood clan at all.

Just like Barton is as strong as the seventh level, basically there are few opponents in the entire empire, but against the blood clan forces, it is still like an ant trying to shake a tree.

So this boss who can make Barton willing to work is most likely to have the strength of the eighth level.

It's just that among the several levels of the eighth level that are very different, I don't know which level Barton's boss is.

The helicopter creaked as it fell, and the whole space began to sink continuously, as if it was about to fall into the deepest part of the earth's core.

Gradually, all the noise on the ground was completely isolated, and there was only deathly silence and a small space that led to nowhere.

When the elevator finally stopped, what came into view was a giant door made of pure white forbidden magic steel, exuding a chilling frost.

The surface of the door was covered with spells of space barrier.

"You actually have a space barrier?"

As far as Lanqi knew, Blood Moon City was a space barrier, and ordinary physical methods could not reach Blood Moon City at all.

The space barrier of the mafia underground was obviously not as large as that of Blood Moon City, but being able to build a space barrier was not something that ordinary people could do.

"It cost a lot of money."

Barton seemed to be accustomed to all this. He took out a crescent-shaped secret key from his arms and inserted it into a hidden groove beside the door.

The mechanical transmission roared low, and the heavy forbidden magic steel slowly opened. The dazzling white light instantly filled the entire space, making people feel dizzy.

When his vision finally adapted to the sudden light, a large underground palace appeared in front of Lanqi. The cold air rushed towards him, and the deathly silence enveloped the entire space, freezing even his breathing.

The pure white walls and ground reflected the light under the ice-blue light, as if it was a different dimension that was cut off from the world.

The Milky Way in the dome was flowing, as if he could see the real starry sky from tens of thousands of meters away.

"Boss, Professor Landry has brought it."

Barton leaned forward slightly and said.

"Okay, you go out."

In the distance, in the center of the palace, a figure said.

Her face had an illusion makeup, which refracted the perspective like the edges of glass fragments, making it impossible to see her true face. The more you look directly at her face, the more dizzy you will feel.

And her neck was filled with scarlet cracks like tattoos, and the lava-like magic veins flowed down, burning her skin.

"..."

Barton was about to say something, but a cold magic power quietly spread, and the woman in the distance exuded a chilling aura, like a demon from hell.

As soon as she looked over, Barton, who was about to speak, was silent under such oppression, unwilling to disturb the boss who seemed to be in a bad mood today.

He signaled Professor Landry to be careful with his eyes, and walked out of the underground palace space quickly, and the magic steel also closed with a roar.

In the underground space.

As if she had noticed the strangeness of the visitor, the woman slowly turned her head, her reddish-brown eyes were like two bottomless pools of dead water, revealing a heart-pounding chill.

The moment their eyes met, the cat boss in the shadow across the space felt that his soul was about to be sucked into the reddish-brown abyss, and he could no longer escape.

It felt that its consciousness was collapsing rapidly, and the boundless fear followed it like a shadow, almost swallowing it completely.

The cat boss resisted the dizziness of falling into the abyss, holding his claws tightly, trying to maintain the last bit of clarity.

At the same time, Lanqi, who was standing opposite the woman, looked normal, not shaken by this terrifying aura at all.

"There are only two of us left..."

The figure raised the corners of his lips slightly, revealing a creepy smile.

Even her magic voice has a mental impact, making people drowsy.

"I..."

Lanqi was about to speak.

The next second, a deep red flame suddenly rose under her feet, like the claws of an ancient demon god, dancing wildly in the air.

The Hand of Hell whizzed out at an incredible speed, engulfing Lanqi's figure in the blink of an eye and holding it tightly.

"Don't hit, don't hit!"

Lanqi was surrounded by a wind barrier without special effects. Under the isolation of the strong wind and the light, the flames did not hurt him.

"Immune force field?"

The silver-haired woman said to herself in confusion.

She thought that Professor Landry's sixth-level strength might be acting, but she didn't expect that this guy could trigger an eighth-level defense spell and hide it as a sixth-level.

It's really a big fish.

Correspondingly, she also determined the level of the opponent.

On the surface, it looks like a sixth-level, but it has a unique way to reach the seventh-level strength, and it can use some stronger tricks from time to time.

The magic fluctuations she had sensed before were far beyond the level of the sixth level.

But there seemed to be many restrictions on his body, and the magic output was limited. There must be a limit!

Frost mist suddenly swept in, with the silver-haired woman as the center, raging and whistling in the underground space.

Her figure instantly turned into a dark afterimage, and she rushed towards Lanqi at a speed that ordinary people could not reach. There was a harsh sound of wind in the air, and she was about to strangle Lanqi's neck in the next second.

Although the strength of her magic power was so strong that it was suffocating, she obviously felt that this opponent did not necessarily need her to use magic.

Even if it was a contest of strength, it was enough to take off the opponent's head and splatter blood on the spot.

At the critical moment, Lanqi remained silent.

A barrier woven by mental power formed in front of her, facing the silver-haired woman's attack head-on.

The two forces collided violently in mid-air, bursting out invisible magic sparks.

To the surprise of the silver-haired woman, Landry's mental barrier actually perfectly offset her attack and launched a counterattack. The two were deadlocked in place, and neither of them gave in.

"Your mental magic is too weak!"

The silver-haired woman sneered. Using mental magic in front of her was undoubtedly a small witch compared to a big witch.

In a flash, she used a similar inverse operation principle to disintegrate the mental barriers layer by layer, and fought back with mental magic.

"I am weak?"

Talia in Lanqi's consciousness heard this, and a trace of surprise flashed across her eyes, but it was soon replaced by resentment.

This guy seemed to be humiliating her. He liked to use the means he was least good at to crack the means his opponent was best at. This arrogant guy annoyed her the most.

Even if she encountered a difficult opponent, Lanqi still told her not to treat the opponent as a mortal enemy, as long as she could find a way to calm the opponent down, but this was about dignity, and Talia didn't want to give in.

"Wait, can we talk?"

Lanqi felt like he had met a crazy woman.

This guy didn't listen to anyone at all.

It was just like Talia who was angry!

"I don't care who you are, as long as I turn you into my slave, it will be more useful than anything else!"

Before she finished speaking, the silver-haired woman's body surged with a magical power that made the ground tremble, dyeing the entire space dark, and countless bottomless cracks spread like spider webs.

Then, black curse flames gushed out from the ground. The silver-haired woman controlled these strange black flames to rage around Lanqi, like a demon demanding his life, and wanted to burn him to ashes.

…

On the ground at the same time.

Even Elsa and Ursula, who were in the office on the upper floor of the Hassel Building, stood up and felt their hair stand on end.

This terrifying magic fluctuation was like two eighth-level people fighting right below them!

Even if they were isolated by countless layers of restrictions, the sense of danger could penetrate them.

And the mafia downstairs also entered alert mode.

"Boss, are you taking action?"

They felt the fluctuation of the earth in astonishment.

Hundreds of meters underground in this river port building.

"Meow meow!"

The cat boss held his head in the shadow.

It felt that Lanqi should not have come in.

If it continued to fight, it felt that it would not be able to win at all.

This silver-haired woman was too scary, at least stronger than Perlman, and it was impossible to fight against her just by relying on the possession state.

Talia's entity quickly solidified in front of Lanqi, blocking the attack for him and releasing her own ultimate move.

"Curse magic?"

The silver-haired woman sneered, her psychedelic voice full of disdain.

The two people's movements became more and more mirrored, and even the magic began to resonate and interweave.

Orange light feathers floated in the silver-white palace, and a fairy-like girl in the flowers had landed in the air.

Just when their magic reached its peak and was about to burst into a head-on collision.

"Huh?"

Two voices said in unison.

The magic close to the realm of the gods slowly stagnated from the condensed state until it dissipated with a little hesitation.

The silver-haired woman seemed to be judging whether this was an illusion.

If this was an illusion, I'm afraid the only thing that could make her think of was [Falling Gentle Country].

But in the Falling Gentle Country, the victim would not easily doubt that this was the Falling Gentle Country, and there was a contradiction in logic.

That powerful magic, beautiful face, and dignified temperament.

And that aura that was different from before, with the pressure of the devil.

No doubt.

She had only one identity.

"Sister... Sister...?"

The silver-haired woman opened her eyes in disbelief, looking at the figure, her eyes gradually filled with mist.

Her murderous eyes were stagnant, and no one knew what she was thinking.

After an unknown number of seconds, she opened her mouth slightly, but did not dare to say a complete sentence.

From the moment her pupils began to reflect the figure of the gray-haired witch, she could no longer take her eyes away from Thalia's face.

"I, I'm not, I don't want to hurt you..."

The murderous intention that the silver-haired woman had been preparing to attack completely dissipated, and instead she spoke anxiously and fearfully.

Even if I haven’t seen this woman with gray hair and golden eyes for a hundred years and my memory has faded, I will still never forget her closest appearance in the world!

Although she didn't understand why her proud sister was in such a state and would engrave her soul on a human being, she truly believed that this was her sister.

The hostility when she looked at Lan Qi had turned into gratitude and closeness, as if she were seeing a family.

Talia couldn't be fooled either. She subconsciously tugged at the corner of Lan Qi's clothes, as if asking him what was going on. However, Lan Qi also spread his hands and smiled, as if he wanted her to confirm it herself. .

He relaxed and deliberately ignored the matter, probably telling Thalia: It seems that I have completed the commission you proposed to me when making the video recording of Kaliera, and the next step is to Check it yourself.

"Efatia?"

Thalia couldn't see clearly the silver-haired woman's face, nor could she hear her true voice, but after the other party struck without reservation, the familiar magic power and moves were exactly the same as her own.

She could only tentatively call out the name.

"it's me."

The silver-haired woman no longer used the magic sound, and the illusion on her face was shattered like a prism, removing her disguise to reveal her true face.

Her eyes were filled with tears of grievance.

"How will you be here?"

Talia never expected that this mysterious boss hiding underground in the mafia was actually the sister Ifatiya she was looking for!

Seeing her sister's body covered with blood-red scars, Thalia felt her heart tremble.

She couldn't imagine what her lovely sister had suffered to become like this.

The moment Thalia looked at Epatia again.

"Sister, I miss you so much. You finally came to the Southern Continent to find me..."

Epatia rushed over and hugged Thalia, burying her head in her chest and crying bitterly.
