"... If the evil god successfully descends, the disaster it causes may spread to the entire Tingen City..."

Among the Gray Fog that enveloped him, Angel saw a figure wearing a windbreaker, leaning against the wall, maintaining a praying posture and kept talking.

The slightly illusory voice gradually faded away, and then the fog dissipated, and she could see the crowd of people around her again.

Forcing himself to calm down from the chaos, Angel quickly sorted out the news he just heard in his mind.

The evil god is coming soon, and the target location is even the Nighthawks station not far from here?

She subconsciously turned her gaze to the north. Behind a few low buildings was Blackthorn Security Company. The sky in that direction was clear and the sun was shining brightly, and there was no trace of the "evil god" at all.

But the picture in Gray Fog just now was undoubtedly the work of Mr. Fool. He should not deceive himself, at least not on this kind of thing...

And Angel can be sure that the figure making a praying pose in the picture just now is Klein Moretti who will attend the celebration with her today.

Unexpectedly, Klein actually recited the name of Fool and became his believer... Was it after he recommended it to Fool, or was he a believer of Fool long ago, but he never joined Tarot Club?

Without thinking about it carefully, Angel can only assume that the information is true, and there is only one thing to do now.

Send Melissa and Benson away, then return to Blackthorn Security Company and join the fight!

"Melissa, Benson, come with me."

She held Melissa's hand and said to Benson who was listening carefully to the speech.

The two of them looked at Angel with doubts, but then nodded under the latter's serious expression.

The three of them squeezed through the crowd together, left the crowded park square amid Councilor Maynard's impassioned speech, crossed the sidewalk, and came to Red Moon Street.

"Listen, Mr. Benson," Angel loosened his grip on Melissa's hand and glanced at the latter's red wrist guiltily before continuing, "Take Melissa with you immediately. takes a hired carriage to leave here, the further away the better, the steam train should be too late, hurry up to Docklands, leave Tingen City by boat, if... if nothing happens to Tingen City, come back tomorrow."

After saying this in one breath, Angel waved to the hired carriage parked on the roadside. When the coachman saw the business coming, he led the horse and walked towards it.

Looking back, she realized that both Benson and Melissa looked at her with expressions as if they had just met her.

"Can I ask what happened?"

The one who spoke was Benson. He didn't show doubts and worries on his face like Melissa, but his tone still contained some hesitation.

Angel looked at brother and sister Moretti, listening to the vague speech "My goal is not just to become the mayor" coming from the distance. He took a deep breath, hid the words "the evil god is coming" in his heart, and answered vaguely:

"North Borough, maybe even the entire Tingen City, is about to have a very dangerous thing happen. If it is handled properly, no one will be injured, but if the worst happens..." She looked at Benson, whose eyes were gradually widening, and said slowly, "At least I hope you can survive."

As soon as she finished speaking, Melissa asked anxiously:

"Where is Klein? Is he the same as you?"

"...Yes."

Angel closed his eyes and nodded. The brother and sister knew that they worked in the same company, so there was no need to lie.

"Okay, Melissa, don't ask anymore." He stretched out his hand to hold Melissa's shoulder, and Benson forced out a smile. "We will set off for Docklands now, then find a fast ship, leave Tingen as soon as possible, stay far away, and come back tomorrow."

As if to reassure Angel, he told him what he was going to do next, and then pulled Melissa, who still wanted to continue questioning, onto the waiting carriage.

Seeing that the two of them got on the carriage obediently without asking too many questions, Angel finally breathed a sigh of relief. She signaled to the waiting coachman that he could leave, while she took two steps back and took one last look at the carriage.

The window on this side of the car was opened, Melissa's little head poked out, and her black hair was caught in the window crack, but she didn't care.

"You will come back safely, right? Take Klein with you?"

The girl's crying voice came.

Angel smiled sweetly.

"Of course, I promise."

Watching the hired carriage leave quickly, Angel turned around, and the forced smile on his face immediately disappeared.

Facing an evil god who is about to come, what guarantee can she make?

Looking at the congressman waving his arms on the high platform not far away, and the citizens crowding around him, whether they were moved by the speech or looking forward to the follow-up activities, Angel shook his head.

The dense crowd here is only a few hundred meters away from Blackthorn Security Company. If the evil god really comes to Tingen, they will definitely not be spared.

But now there is no time to worry about evacuating the masses. There are tens of thousands of residents in North Borough. Unless they successfully prevent Lanevus's plan, what difference does it make if there are a few hundred more or a few hundred less?

Just as Angel was about to bypass the crowded crowd and go to Blackthorn Security Company, Gray Fog once again appeared in front of her eyes, and the hazy but familiar figure appeared.

"Megose left Blackthorn Security Company and was approaching Street Park next to her. Her mood was very unstable. I think the evil god may be coming soon."

The picture came and went quickly. Before Angel could react, Gray Fog disappeared wrapped in Klein's figure.

Street Park...

Angel stood still, looked at the noisy crowd around him, and his heart slowly sank.

There is no doubt that Megose, or Evil God's Offspring in her belly, is targeting the dense crowd in the park.

No matter what kind of evil ritual it is, human life is the best sacrifice. This is true for the Demoness Sect, and so is Aurora Order...

Contact the police department now to evacuate the crowd here?

She glanced around the park and found that there was only one patrol officer walking around the corner, paying no attention to what was happening in the park.

"It's too late..."

Angel murmured to himself, gritted his teeth, and stepped forward suddenly, aiming at the dense crowd beside the podium.

"Give way, please give way..."

The crowded crowd had their backs to Angel, shoulder to shoulder. Even with Sequence 7's physical ability, Beyonder couldn't go any further. She didn't bother to waste any more time, so she directly lifted up her skirt, pulled out "Bloodthirst" from the holster tied to her thigh, and raised the pistol high in the eyes of Passerby next to her, whose eyes turned from surprise to surprise, and finally to panic.

"Bang——"

The roar of the large-caliber pistol instantly silenced the noisy square, and the high-pitched note that Maynard finished his speech on the podium was also scared back into his throat.

The crowd that was packed just now suddenly backed away, forming an open space next to Angel.

"I'm going to count to three now, and then find some Luck people to give away a bullet," she put on what she thought was the most charming smile, with a hint of Instigator malice in her words, "So, who would be so Luck?"

She put down the hand holding the gun, crossed "Bloodthirst" and aimed at the crowd.

"Three!"

Bang——

With the second gunshot, the bullet grazed the scalp of the nearest man, and the stunned crowd let out a "boom". The sound of chaotic footsteps and cries from near to far ignited the entire park square.

Under the threat of death, the crowd crowded and fled in all directions, trying to stay away from this woman with a beautiful face but a crazy smile, and then passed this fear to people further away who still couldn't figure out what happened, and then told them to stay away from the square and leave Street Park.

Putting away his already stiff smile, Angel looked at the square where the number of people was rapidly decreasing with satisfaction, and then turned his gaze to the podium, looking at the congressman who was protected behind him by bodyguards and stared at him dumbfounded.

"Why are you still here?"

Curious about the courage of this congressman, Angel asked.

Seemingly thinking that he could communicate with this crazy lady, Councilor Maynard squeezed past the two bodyguards, stepped forward, and stood on the edge of the podium, looking down at her.

"I..."

As soon as he opened his mouth and spat out a word, this New Party Pillar in Tingen City, the powerful man who was about to run for mayor exploded.
