The dagger held in his left hand was placed firmly on the opponent's neck. Angel touched his waist with his right hand and put away the unsheathed dagger.
The invisibility state will not fade due to these actions. In Angel's field of vision, the kidnapped man seems to be standing there blankly, with his hands raised and his head tilted back involuntarily, avoiding the dagger that feels cold but cannot be seen clearly.
"Who are you? Why are you following me?"
Seeing that the other party obeyed obediently, Angel asked softly.
The man swallowed, but due to the movement of his Adam's apple, he was scratched by the dagger placed on his neck. A deep red blood stain spread from his neck to the bottom of his shirt, staining it red.
"I, I just want to ask about the price of Potion. I don't have any malice. I really don't have any malice!"
Potion price? Potion of "Witch"?
This is obviously a lie. If you are just asking for a price, you can do it at the Beyonder gathering of Mr. A. If you think the price is expensive, just don't buy it. There is no need to follow it behind you.
Angel shook the dagger, widening the wound on the opponent's Adam's apple, and continued to press, "How do you know the seller is me?"
"Because I have been observing the people on the field, after you handed over the note..."
The man's voice became smaller and smaller. Just as Angel was about to get closer, he suddenly became wary and slashed his neck with the dagger without hesitation.
Bang——
Angel's hand was blocked by a huge force. She immediately stabilized her body, holding her own dagger in her left hand, and holding the dagger seized from the man in her right hand, and stabbed him in the back together.
The sharp dagger only cut open the opponent's windbreaker. The man's flexible body escaped from the restraint and ran forward at an extremely fast speed. Then he rolled on the spot and avoided the two flying Black Flame.
Is he also an assassin? No, it's stronger than that, is it "Instigator"?
Angel discovered that this man's movements were agility that ordinary people could not match, so he no longer used daggers to attack, but continuously summoned a large number of Black Flame, following the opponent's figure to hit him.
Black Flame flew forward in an elegant arc in the narrow alley, but the man seemed to have eyes behind his back. He dodged left and right, avoiding Black Flame's attacks continuously, and then turned sideways and got into the adjacent alley.
When Angel quickly caught up, only the open sewer mouth was left in the trail, and the man had disappeared without a trace.
Got into the sewer? Or is it a trap?
She first opened her Spirit Vision and looked around, but did not find any hidden Spirituality things. Then she looked at the dark sewer. In her Dark Vision, a liquid of unknown composition was flowing in the sewer. The man she was chasing had obviously left.
"The situation is not right, retreat immediately... It is not like the style of the official Beyonder, and he is very familiar with East Borough's environment." Angel did not rush into the unfamiliar sewers, but guarded the alleyway vigilantly, looking at the dagger stained with the opponent's blood, "He said in the dim I was observed at the Beyonder gathering, and there was probably Dark Vision, who was also interested in 'Witch' Potion. Could it be that he was 'Instigator', or simply a peripheral member of 'Demoness Sect'?"
She mobilized Spirituality, wiped the blood on the dagger with her right hand, and recited the curse words belonging to "Witch" in her mouth.
The blood quickly boils, then forms into blackened dust that is blown away by the wind.
This shows that the same effect has already taken effect on the other party.
For Sequence 8 and Beyonder, this kind of curse transmitted only by blood is not fatal, but it can definitely give the other party a profound warning.
In view of the fact that he will have contact with "Demoness Sect" in the future, killing this "Instigator" is not the best choice.
Next is the disposal of the scene...
Angel carefully manipulated Black Flame to burn the place where the two fought one by one, removing all traces of mysticism, even the few drops of blood that fell on the ground.
Since the other party is from the Demoness Sect, Magic Mirror Divination will lock her in a few hours. Although she wants to find Demoness Sect, she does not want to do it in such a passive way.
Black Flame Curse plus Anti-Divination of Mystical Item can ensure that you take the initiative.
After doing all this, Angel left the alley. Several homeless people who had heard the noise gathered around the alley. Angel, who had been to East Borough many times, was already familiar with the method of dealing with it. As long as he showed his dagger and shook the tip of the blade to reflect the flickering moonlight, he could immediately make them clear a way for those with evil intentions.
After leaving, she did not immediately return to her residence in Bridge District Red Rose Street. Instead, she took a detour to a dilapidated apartment building in East Borough and went to her own safe house.
After learning about Dominic's method of renting a safe house to hide Sonia, Angel also prepared a temporary residence for himself in East Borough, paying 3 soli per week. It was a one-bedroom with simple furniture, but it was enough to hide.
After entering the room and locking the door, she immediately took off the "Madness Ring" on her hand. Although wearing it for a few hours allowed her to perfectly hide her appearance, it also accumulated a lot of desires stemming from her heart, including eating, drinking and other needs.
Fortunately, it didn't last long and it was still bearable.
Taking out Magic Mirror, Angel performed a divination on the stolen dagger and asked the owner of the dagger where it was at this time, but the mirror was pitch black, no image was shown, and no sound was heard.
"The divination failed... Someone took Anti-Divination measures for him?"
It is basically certain that there is a stronger "assassin" Pathway Beyonder behind the man, or at least "Witch", because "Instigator" does not have the ability of Anti-Divination.
This undoubtedly confirmed the identity of the other party "Demoness Sect".
Angel's plan was to use Witch's Potion formula to fish, attracting the attention of the Demoness Sect. However, on the first day she posted the information, she was followed by a Instigator, which was indeed a bit beyond her expectation.
If the other party followed him to his real residence and exposed his original appearance, it would be a serious matter... Fortunately, he discovered it in time, repelled the other party, and acted accordingly Anti-Divination.
Angel fingered the seized dagger flexibly, but his eyes looked at the dark Magic Mirror, thinking deeply.
After the dilemma of urgent need for money has been temporarily solved, she currently has only two tasks: one is to play "Witch" and improve her Sequence to have the ability to protect herself and revenge; the other is to approach and blend into the Demoness Sect to find traces of Ince Zangwill.
The latter already has a clue. After deliberately letting go of the stalker, someone will come to contact him next time he goes to Mr. A's gathering. In any case, "Demoness Sect" will not let a person who knows the formula of Mid Sequence Potion escape from his control.
As for Witch's performance, Angel also has some clues.
Tingen City's "gas explosion" incident spread across the country. When she was witnessed at the scene and regarded as a suspect, Potion showed signs of digestion, which shows that "Witch" acted It can be done from the concept of "spreading Calamity". Even false and misunderstood behaviors can still meet the conditions of acting. In other words, this "misunderstanding" may be more in line with the core acting concept of "Witch".
In addition, according to the name of Potion and the extension of the role of "Instigator", you may create your own sense of mystery, deceive and play with others, and perform corresponding performances.
"Making Calamity" is not a simple matter, and "mystery" and "deceiving others" may be combined, such as learning from a talented Seer, performing Magic Mirror Divination in Divination Club, or completing some commissions similar to "Magic Mirror Search" to leave a profound impression of Beyonder in the eyes of the other party.
Thinking of this, Angel remembered the short woman he met at Mr. A's gathering today, and decided to try that commission with a low success rate.
Maybe it's done? I can earn Gold Pound, and I can try this kind of acting method to see if it will work...
She put down the dagger and wiped the surface of Magic Mirror with her hand again, returning the dark mirror to normal, reflecting her face that had returned to its original appearance.
Using paper and pen to write down the "target features" seen today, Angel conducted the second Magic Mirror Divination.
"Magic Mirror Magic Mirror Tell me, where is this woman currently?"
The mirror surface was sparkling, like rippling water, but was soon covered with tenacious black and became dead.
"Sure enough, since the opponent is the 'assassin' Mid Sequence Beyonder, then there must be corresponding Anti-Divination means..."
Watching the confrontation between Magic Mirror and Anti-Divination, Angel felt a little sad. Although she had expected such a result, the 200-pound bounty was still exciting.
Eventually, the darkness faded, and her own face with a thick expression of disappointment reappeared on the mirror.
