A month has passed, and no attacks have occurred in Asura District. During this period, Mage Alliance officials have also conducted several rigorous searches in various neighborhoods, not only to verify the identity of the tenants and residents of each household, but also to check whether there are any traces left by the Blood Clan, etc.

Although the purpose was to find the murderer of the attack, it unexpectedly exposed many gray industries and disrupted the balance of some underground forces.

Among the four leading men, Vertical Eye" was taken away, along with his subordinates and younger brothers, for participating in smuggling and forging entry and exit identities. Spider Woman" was also severely punished for participating in hiding people and buying and selling girls. Although he was not beaten to death because of his long-term relationship network, his vitality was severely damaged. He cowered in the mansion and did not dare to make any more moves.

The remaining Fire Pig" and Four Fingers" saw the opportunity and began to devour the territory of Vertical Eye" and Spider Woman". After this search operation, the strength of the two parties expanded.

In the past, the four major leaders were of equal strength and would check and balance each other. No one would fight with other forces with all their strength, but it is different now. Fire Pig" and Four Fingers" both see hope. As long as they defeat each other, they can unify the underground gangs of Asura District and become the king of the underground.

Expanding ambitions and desires keep both parties gearing up and constantly looking for opportunities.

After several searches, Mage Alliance officials gradually felt relieved. Considering that these students had been staying at Thunder Tower for more than a month, many of them were already a little irritable and depressed, so they gradually relaxed control and allowed the students to return to their respective schools.

First are the students with lower rankings, then the students with average strength, and finally Sylutia, Xinke and others.

"This is the latest protective Magic Orb, take it and wear it on your body." Before leaving, Mage of Thunder Tower handed over the newly made silver Magic Orb to several people.

[Silver Vine Protective Orb] (Level 4·Perfect): It can quickly deploy a powerful protective circle to isolate attacks, and it has a built-in special timer that can slow down the flow of things around Deceleration, achieving an effect similar to slowing down time. At the same time, it also protects Magic Orb with built-in rescue signals and positioning spells, which can induce induction from the nearest tower.

"These are newly made. Even Blood Clan, which has a strong attack power, will not be able to break it for a while." The other party explained, and then the three of them took it carefully and curiously.

Hang the silver Magic Orb and pocket watch on your waist. The two occasionally collide and make a pleasant sound, like a small bell.

"Thank you."

After that, Sylutia and Xinke also got into the car and left Thunder Tower.

Two officers in dark blue uniforms from District 1 Agate Street found the Orc girl who was temporarily staying here.

"Ms. Anali, according to our review, your admission status has been forged. Although I have no bad records during my time at school, this still cannot be a reason to continue to stay. Currently, your student status has been cancelled. Please pack your bags and leave within a week, otherwise you will become an official wanted person."

The girl with dark purple hair stood at the door with her head lowered, thin and helpless, silently accepting the result.

After the two searchers left, the aunt in the house came out, hugged her in her arms, and kept comforting her.

"It's okay, it's okay. Even if you can't become Mage or a big shot, you can still live a good life outside. Don't hate yourself."

After a long time, a slight sob came from the girl in her arms.

However, the sound did not last long, and she quickly wiped it clean, raised her head and smiled hard at the aunt behind her.

"I'm fine. In fact, I already knew the result."

Over the past six months, no matter how hard she studied, it was difficult for her to keep up with the progress of her classmates. She had to find opportunities to work to raise money for study and living. Such a life was already in danger.

Seeing her strong yet fragile look, the aunt sighed, hugged her in her arms, and leaned her head gently down.

"Although Vertical Eye" is not a good person, if in the past, he could find an identity with that leader to maintain his studies, but now I'm afraid there is no other way."

"In the Agate Street area, there are actually many Orcs like you who came here smuggled in to make money, or their parents came here like this. This is not unusual."

" Master Mage wants people to work, but the quotas given each year are very few. We cannot go through formal channels, so we can only use this method."

"Besides, there is no need to report the death of a gangster, and Police Station can save a lot of worry. If a registered resident dies unexpectedly, they will inevitably have to investigate and file a case." The aunt said about the situation in the underground world of Asura District, where more than half of the workers are gangsters.

It's no wonder that a guarantee from the leader is needed, because once the blackmailer escapes, the employer will not know who to turn to for compensation and settlement.

Secondly, if you let the black households do it, you only need to pay a small amount of money, which is far lower than the official resident fee.

For the next two days, Anali packed his things, then sat on the window sill on the street in a daze, looking at the bustling buildings and street scenes outside.

At first she just came here to study for revenge, but as time went by, the highly developed society and bustling scenery here gradually attracted her.

There are delicacies that she could not see in the countryside when she was a child, all kinds of beautiful and complicated clothes that she could not afford, and students who are similar to her age and are full of energy.

I really want to be like them, working purely for my studies, traveling happily with my companions during the holidays, and savoring the beauty of youth.

Looking at the students walking by outside, Anali had a look of envy in his eyes.

It's a pity that she doesn't belong here. She's just a little beast from the countryside. She can't blend in with those beautiful figures, nor can she survive in the environment surrounded by various evil beasts in the underground world. She can only escape in despair before the arrival of the iron-faced investigators.

Looking back on the past six months, Anali felt sad and reluctant, but unfortunately she could not change the outcome.

The door to the room opened, and a familiar sound of footsteps and voices woke her up, breaking away from the sadness she was immersed in.

"Sir Hedra, Anali is here, do you think you can help her to be accommodating?" The lady in the restaurant said in a flattering and flattering manner, trying her best to smile.

A girl with black hair and a black classical dress walked into this simple room. On one side of her waist was a pocket watch and a small Magic Orb, and on the other side she was holding a thick book with a thin copper chain.

Seeing this pretty young girl, Anali was surprised and at the same time lowered her head in shame. Of course she knew this young lady who had been in and out of Agate Street several times, but she was someone she could not reach, so she had never gotten close to talk to her.

After approaching, Sylutia blinked and looked at the girl with animal horns. She looked a little thin, maybe only fifteen years old, maybe due to stunted growth, her hair was dark purple and messy, very inconspicuous.

However, when the aunt asked Anali to look up and speak, Sylutia saw a pair of beautiful blue eyes.
