The Mystery:The Witch and the Scourge

There was a "thunder" explosion, and a clear silver-white lightning appeared out of thin air, hitting the head of the male Extraordinary who was trying to escape.

This attack comes with the power of "order", and there is no room for evasion at all.

The moment the hair on his body exploded, the frightened male Extraordinary immediately turned into an exquisite paper man, and his real body flashed past with the firelight, getting closer to the exit of the door.

As expected, the paper man was turned into charcoal by lightning and scattered all over the ground. At the same time, this man's extraordinary path was exposed.

The "divineer" path, could it be those guys from the "Secret Order"... Louise quietly watched the battle, a little surprised for a moment.

The members of the "Secret Order" had just arrived in Backlund a few days ago. How could they have made a plan in such a short period of time and even put it into action... What is Klein doing? I'm not letting him

Is he observing secretly? Why didn't any news come through? Considering the attraction of Origin Castle to the "seer" path, shouldn't it?

If Klein knew what Louise was thinking at this moment, he would definitely cry out. Although he did not spend all his energy tracking down the members of the "Secret Order", he was not idle either!

On the other side of Backlund, Mr. Fool is currently cooperating with Miss Sharon and Maric in hunting members of the "Rose School"...

Looking at the battlefield, Louise suddenly had an unexpected illusion. She discovered that the fleeing member of the "Secret Order" didn't seem to have even the slightest intention of resisting... Of course, if he resisted, he would most likely die.

Go very quickly.

All he wanted to do was escape, which was the right choice and could delay him for enough time.

Louise seemed to have figured it out. She knew very well that the Extraordinary person in front of her was not the only one sent to Backlund by the "Secret Order". Their purpose was not to assassinate Duke Negan, but to seize something.

At this moment, other members of the "Secret Order" may have been secretly seizing the real target.

The extraordinary person in front of him probably just played the role of an "abandoned son"... Of course, if Duke Negan hadn't made preparations in advance, he would probably have just been a "bait", easily creating chaos at the dance and then escaping from the scene.

Unfortunately, in this situation, it is difficult for him to run away.

Sure enough, although the members of the "Secret Order" who were on the verge of despair had approached the gate exit, they were forced back by another stern-faced Extraordinary, facing a situation where they were attacked from both sides.

Louise was a little surprised because she recognized the extraordinary person who appeared later. He was the "Nighthawk" and the captain of the team where the "psychic" Miss Daly belonged.

Why does the "Nighthawk" appear here? As Duke Negan, shouldn't he be cooperating with the "Punisher" or MI9?

No one can explain this question to Louise, but this battle, which is already destined to the final result, is about to end.

The member of the "Secret Order" made a final attempt, but it was of no use. He was captured alive in a short period of time and fell into a deep, baby-like sleep.

Duke Negan watched the entire battle with cold eyes, and finally waved his hand to indicate that the person would be escorted temporarily.

Later, the "sealed object" was recovered by the "Nighthawk" team, and the spiritual fluctuations that enveloped the ball hall disappeared. Most of the guests woke up, as if they had just woken up, completely unaware that an extraordinary battle had ended.

Their memories still lingered on Duke Negan's angry speech. In addition to concealing his identity as an extraordinary person and pretending to be an ordinary guest like Louise... She believed that she was definitely not an exception.

Dean Russell, who was flexing his hands and feet not far away, his behavior just now seemed much "funny".

"What's the situation now?" Audrey beside her was finally able to speak and immediately asked in a low voice.

Louise frowned and said:

"Shouldn't you know better? What did Earl Hall tell you?"

Audrey answered naturally: "Father only told me that there was someone at this ball who wanted to assassinate Duke Negan."

Um, yes, the assassin hasn't taken action yet, and he's standing in front of you, um, holding your hand... Louise silently released her hold on Audrey's right hand and whispered:

"The captured Beyonder is a member of the 'Secret Order', and their goal in coming to Backlund is Duke Negan."

Miss "Justice" nodded slightly and recalled that Louise had shared this information at the "Tarot Club". She also remembered that Mr. "World" had shown considerable interest in it.

It turns out that members of the "Secret Order" wanted to assassinate Duke Negan, just like "Pirate General" Qilingos. Could it be that Qilingos was also sent by the "Secret Order"... Audrey unfolded a rich story

Lenovo, finally pursed his lips and asked aloud:

"What should we do now?"

Louise was very satisfied with her half-truth and half-lie answer just now. She had succeeded in diverting the trouble away, but what she was more curious about at the moment was:

"How did Duke Negan get the news that someone was going to assassinate him? If the member of the 'Secret Order' who was captured alive confessed his purpose, would Mr. Duke be more vigilant, and would this make his assassination more difficult?

…”

She had a lot of doubts in her mind, but now was obviously not a good time to think about it, so she put away many thoughts, turned her eyes to the high platform in the center of the ball, and replied calmly:

"It depends on how Duke Negan ends up."

While the two were chatting secretly, many guests in the hall were already talking in a chaotic manner.

Although they didn't know what happened specifically, there was obviously a reason for the collective absence just now, and as the upper echelons of this country, they were no strangers to the existence of extraordinary power... In the end, everyone's eyes were once again focused on

On Duke Negan.

From Mr. Duke's point of view, it was an unforgivable thing for him to be assassinated repeatedly. He would definitely suspect that someone was secretly targeting him.

With the keen sense of a political figure, he noticed that the atmosphere in Loen has been a bit subtle recently, and the battles between many interest groups have become increasingly fierce. Sadly, the aristocratic class he represents is slowly decaying.

Therefore, he chose the toughest method, holding tonight's dance party and turning it into a trap, not only to catch the person who tried to assassinate him and find the real "murderer" behind it, but also for an equally important reason:

He wants to prove to everyone that Duke Negan is not too old to walk yet, and tonight's action is a powerful declaration.

As Duke Negan, who received a strict aristocratic education from an early age, he is excellent as a soldier and a politician. However, his cognition at a higher level is superficial.

He didn't know who his real enemy was, and he couldn't even imagine who his real enemy was.

This is the saddest thing.

But at this moment, he was in a good mood. He took a glass of champagne from the waiter behind him, raised his glass and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have shocked you all. On my personal behalf, I would like to express my most sincere apologies to everyone."
