The Mystery:The Witch and the Scourge

"I'm a little curious, how did you make such a 'witch' friend?"

Mr. Azik raised the corners of his mouth slightly and asked jokingly.

Klein was a little embarrassed. He couldn't talk about the "Tarot Club", so he could only answer briefly and perfunctorily:

"We met by chance, our relationship is average..."

Azik looked at Klein silently, with a teasing smile in his eyes, as if to say:

"I didn't ask you how your relationship is?"

Mr. Klein and Mr. Azik were both teachers and friends. They knew that the other party was just joking, and it was better not to explain such things, so they hurriedly changed the topic:

"How's Ince Zangwill?"

Azik put away the smile when he heard this and responded calmly:

"He was seriously injured, and more importantly, we know that he has colluded with the Loen royal family, which means we know his possible future movements, and we no longer have to worry about finding him."

Today's adventure really paid off... Klein felt much better. He thought about it and guessed:

"Perhaps, Ince Zangwill's partners also include the 'Witch Cult'."

Azik was not aware of this. He hesitated and asked:

"Louise told you? But she is obviously a member of the 'Witch Cult'!"

There is no loyalty at all when it comes to Erwuzi... Klein cursed in his heart, and suddenly thought that Miss "Strength" might betray the "Witch Cult" today, and one day she would also betray "The Witch Sect". "Tarot Society" start?

He was startled by this idea, but Klein quickly realized that there was more than just Miss Power in the "Tarot Club", and the real world was different from the "online" one!

Relaxing for the time being, Klein then corrected him:

"Louise didn't say it explicitly. I inferred it from some details and discoveries."

Azik thought for a while, nodded and said:

"This possibility cannot be ruled out, and Louise obviously played a very important role in today's incident, so she asked a demigod to help and saved you."

Klein thought so too. He suddenly realized that in today's entire incident, Miss "Strength" was probably the one who stood behind the scenes and controlled everything, and he seemed to have become a pawn, helping her complete the task. The ultimate goal...the only thing I don't know is what exactly does Miss "Power" want to do?

Obviously everyone is still in the mid-range, why is Miss "Strength" completely different from me?

Klein sighed inexplicably, and at the same time secretly made up his mind that he must give her a hard blow!

"Louise has many secrets, but you are already very good." Mr. Azik suddenly said.

Then, he seemed to remember something, took out a glove that was as thin as human skin from his pocket, and said:

"This is a relic left by the pirate general. It is a magical item equivalent to a 'shepherd'. I can no longer use it. I made some seals and gave it to you for use."

Seeing Klein's interested expression, Azik silently took back the fact that "he once gave it to Louise, but Louise did not accept it" and then asked:

"After what happened today, Ince Zangwill may retaliate against you through '0-08' at any time, so you'd better not stay in Backlund."

Klein nodded in agreement and agreed:

"I'm ready to leave Backlund and go to the sea to digest the potion and look for traces of the mermaid. This is the condition I need for promotion."

"Good choice." Azik commented briefly, then handed "Creeping Hunger" to Klein and said:

"Take it, it will help you a lot now."

Klein nodded. There was no need to be polite to Mr. Azik, so he carefully put away this magical item.

............

The smog in Backlund was blown away, and the Beyonders from the three major churches began to take action separately.

The members of the "Nighthawks" team were the first to arrive at the location where the smog was most severe. The leader was none other than the Archbishop of the Backlund Diocese of the Church of the Night Goddess, Anthony Stevenson, the Sequence Three Saint.

They discovered a battlefield littered with devastation.

Frost, broken crystal clear lenses, and the remains of bullets and shells exploded all over the street. If you didn't know better, you would think that a small war was going on here!

"It looks like battle traces left by the Extraordinary in the 'Artisan' path." One of the "Nighthawks" guessed aloud.

After all, probably only the people of the "Church of Steam" can carry so much ammunition and weapons, and only they like this rich and wealthy fighting method.

If the traces on the battlefield in front of us were not left by a group of people, then the order of the two parties involved in the battle must be high, even reaching the demigod level!

Archbishop St. Anthony had naturally seen through things that ordinary "Nighthawks" could discover. He took back the spirit body he had just released to the surroundings and whispered:

"'Alchemist', but besides Horamik, where can Backlund get the second 'Alchemist'?"

Soon, the "Nighthawks" finished their preliminary investigation of the scene, and the captain stepped forward to report:

"Your Excellency, the investigation has made it clear that the reason why the smog is the worst here is because there is a person or something that is madly attracting the smog."

"But the mysterious man can't be found, right?" Saint Anthony asked calmly.

The captain of "Nighthawk" nodded and replied without changing his expression:

"Yes, Your Excellency."

"But..." He hesitated for a second, and then said: "Although I don't know why this mysterious man attracted the haze, his existence probably reduced the disaster by more than one level."

"In a sense, this mysterious man...may be called Backlund's hero."

Saint Anthony turned around, smiled, and said:

"Then let's write the report like this. I have some things to do and I'll leave first. You can continue to perform your mission."

As soon as he finished speaking, the archbishop disappeared immediately, which surprised the members of the "Nighthawks".

What does "just write the report like this" mean? This mysterious man is probably a wild Beyonder, and his sequence must not be low!

What's more, the battlefield in front of him was most likely caused by two hostile demigods. Why didn't the archbishop seem to care at all? Or did he leave because he found some clues?

Shaking their heads in confusion, the "Nighthawks" continued to complete their unfinished investigation mission.

............

"Preliminary statistics show that a total of more than 10,000 people died in this haze. Thanks to the timely response, the spread of the plague was quickly suppressed, and subsequent casualties will gradually decrease..."

Louise did not prevent this disaster, and she did not even mean to do so, but she did save tens of thousands of lives.
