Before the dew had even dried, Ralph appeared in front of Lyle's house.

He never took off his windbreaker, and the mud on his boots fell down by gravity.

"We have a field mission that will depart in four days. Before then, all your work has been cancelled, leaving time for preparations."

"What mission?"

"A murder occurred in Narannia in the neighboring province. The deceased was the eldest son of a baron. The Narannia Public Security Department offered us assistance. After an exchange of interests, our group needs to go to Narannia."

"I still can't understand why it is us. Maybe you are indeed an excellent police force, but Kallen and I are just newcomers."

"Because we have the military assistance of the Holy Light, and at the same time, as a participant in the Raffaelein Wolf case, those gentlemen believe that you are very talented in this area, and I cannot refuse their name."

"So, this case is also caused by weirdness?"

"That's why we need to borrow the power of the Holy Light. Of course, if you can get that boy William back, we will have a lot more chips. Old Ba Jin has passed away, and we don't have a better companion (tool man) for the time being."

"I can't guarantee what kind of monster may appear this time?"

"vampire."

………

Time seems to have stopped in the slums, and you will not see any changes. The dirty and muddy land, the emaciated figures huddled in the corner, the suppressed breathing, and the crazy urge to survive.

Eyeballs turning, hands hidden in shadows.

Lyle's cuffs were soaked, and the talent ball covered the back of his hand like a film of water, ready to be ejected to the next attacker at any time.

Walking into the slums without Ralph's company, Lyle repeatedly walked into the jungle surrounded by wild beasts, and his nerves were tense.

There was a scraping sound from behind, like a knife cutting linen.

What is that?

"It's me, Lyle baby." Medusa poked her head out from under Lyle's clothes, her paws were rubbing on her fluttering coat.

"Medusa! I'm doing business."

"What you mean by doing business is keeping an eye on a group of people crawling in the mud?"

"You have a unique independent talent, and a magic wand that can think independently. A wolf will not regard a lamb as an enemy, because it is just prey. Your water ball can easily twist off a head, and I can quickly bite them open.

of the carotid artery.”

"So, I should focus more on efficiency instead of focusing on these little things?"

"So you should spend more time talking to your precious wand sister instead of looking around like a neurotic."

"..."

………

Old Ba Jin's dilapidated house is still in the same place, and the disgusting smell of the soup remains unchanged.

This is the only place where Lyle can try his luck with William. The main purpose of communicating with him about the new field work is to cooperate in the subsequent exploration of the secret realm.

Pushing open the door, in front of you is the passage leading to the living room, and the stairs leading directly to the second floor on the other side. According to the last experience, William should be in the attic room under the stairs.

Lyle walked in that direction.

Just took out my right foot.

"careful!"

Suddenly there was an upward pulling force from the heel, the body leaned backward, and the back of the head hit the threshold firmly. The head was hit and kept dizzy, and the body was hung upside down.

Lyle has fallen into an invisible trap.

When his mind regained consciousness, the well-dressed William appeared in his field of vision. He added a rusty yellow cloak to himself, with the same smile on his face, but the smile at the moment was irritating.

"Look at the good things you've done, William."

"Sorry, my brother." William muttered without sincerity, and removed a seven-foot wooden stick with a thread pattern from behind. As the end of the stick moved, the invisible lasso lowered Lyle down, "In the body

In such an environment, we have to be careful, there are many people here who are concerned about this dilapidated building, and the invisible powder is very effective."

"Is that your wand?"

"Yes." William threw the threaded wood in the air, "It's quite practical, much easier to use than a charm, under normal circumstances."

"Lyle, if you come here, does it mean that you are ready to participate in an adventure with me?"

"Yes, another reason is that I have another field mission. Are you willing to take part in it? Great Wizard, the price is negotiable."

"The nun is here too?"

"Karen is a paladin, she is here too."

"I have to raise the price. I should spend some energy on disguise. By the way, is this an independent task for you?"

"No, Ralph will still lead the team."

"Transaction cancelled, no room left."

"Where's our brotherhood?"

"Don't talk about relationships when your life is in danger."

"Okay, when does the secret adventure start?"

"In an hour, we will meet at the seventh block of Cassandale. By the way, according to the latest reliable information, we will be disguised and covered all over."

Why did the rules sound so familiar? It was no problem for Lyle. After all, he had been an epidemic doctor for a long time. "No problem."

………

William put himself into a clown suit, with a distended belly that was in great contrast to his body shape, a three-cornered hat and a clown mask. At this time, he was as eye-catching as Lyle.

"Ha, it's so convenient to have a doctor as a secondary occupation. You only need to wear work clothes."

"Where did your clothes come from?"

"I was left behind by the circus before, forced by life."

The two of them were walking on the main road in District 7. Lyle still had memories of this road, because District 13 was Cassandre's cemetery, and Andre's family tomb was deep inside it.

The two stopped at a store.

Blake's Bookstore.

It's a bakery I've seen before, and it seems like this place is not ordinary.

There are long loaves of bread scattered here and there on the stall, and they are arranged in an awkward way, which makes you not want to buy them.

The shop owner is a strong bald man with a curvy moustache. His light gray apron with holes does not hide his strong muscles. His big copper eyes are not angry and intimidating. He stands in front of the shop like a security guard.

Guard the door tightly.

The windows are made of kraft paper and oilcloth, so you can't see the scene inside the store. In other words, the store owner has no intention of letting customers into the store to do business properly.

William walked up and said, "Shopkeeper, I'm buying bread."

"It's on the counter, help yourself."

"These won't work."

"Then what do you want?"

"I want [Roman bread]." It seemed like there was some code word.

"Oh, have you brought enough money?" The shop owner seemed a little moved.

"Bring it, bring it."

"How many people?"

"Both of us."

The shopkeeper's eyes swept over the two of them. "Come in." He walked into the shop first.

Lyle followed closely.

The interior was empty and undecorated. The two of them were taken into a small room, with a thin man in black robe standing at the door.

"Give me the money and stand in the middle of the circle."

William took out two gold coins.

Oliu.

The black robe nodded with satisfaction, "It's actually genuine, so just follow the contract and do your job honestly."

Lyle and William walked into the magic circle, and with an incomprehensible spell, they were teleported away.

Lyle noticed that the magic circle was a black inverted pentagram, as well as the purple magic patterns that emerged from the gaps in the black robe when he recited the incantation.

A black tower with lightning appeared in front of them. It had a rough architectural style and a spiral thundercloud gathered on the top of the tower.

At this time, the two of them were in a dirty alley, and a figure with a masked face pushed them.

"Okay, we're here, get out quickly and don't block the way."

The strong arms that were pushing were wrapped with purple magic patterns, and William looked at the black crystals on his body in amazement.

The two of them walked outside.

William was talking to the side.

"Lyle, we are trespassing illegally. Don't panic. You have to pretend to be a regular visitor. Remember, stay calm."

Lyle looked at William, whose body was shaking with excitement.

"OK."

Lyle turned around and walked towards the demon guard standing aside holding a battle ax.

"Brother, what is the dark area here?"
