Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 178 Bookmarks
"Captain, can I put them down first? This is unsightly."

There was no emotion in Anne's voice, as if she was asking what to have for breakfast tomorrow.

"My answer is it's best not to - after all, it's their birthright." Tracy shook her head, but then smiled helplessly: "Of course, it doesn't matter if you knock them out."

"I, I think, shouldn't you ask this kind of question before you do anything?"

Wendy asked timidly, not knowing who she was hoping to answer. Beside her, the sailors were lying on the ground in all directions, most of them had not even had time to put on their pants before Annie punched them in the back of the head and made them pass out.

"I have controlled the power. They will wake up in about ten minutes. They are fine."

Anne replied. After confirming that Wendy and Elaine had no relationship, her attitude was no longer as unfriendly as before, but she returned to her normal attitude of welcoming guests and replied politely.

"The point is not the size of the power..."

Wendy rubbed her forehead in frustration.

"It seems that this place stores some picture albums and other supplies that are commonly used by sailors. It is a place for sailors to vent their stress."

Adele picked up the album and flipped through it with interest. She found that although there were many illustrations in it, they were only illustrations of women in revealing clothes. There was no pornographic plot at all. It seemed that the publisher was selling dog meat under the guise of sheep meat in order to make money from the sailors. Moreover, the upper part of the album was soaked by water dripping from the cave ceiling, making the faces of the people in the album blurry and not only looked erotic, but also a little weird.

Tsk, so tasteless...

Adele seemed to understand why this book was the only one thrown on the ground and even used to catch the leaking water. Then, she stretched out her other hand out of boredom and covered the book, letting a thin layer of ice crawl over the entire book, making it fragile and cold.

Adele flicked her finger and turned the book into flying ice chips, ready to follow Tracy's footsteps. Black fire can only ignite spiritual things, otherwise it would be much more convenient.

However, she suddenly discovered something. That is, the bookmark in the book was not broken into pieces by her extraordinary ability, but fell directly into her palm after the pages of the book were shattered.

With the help of the dim light of the oil lamp in the mine, Adele could see the mysterious bookmark clearly.

It was a bookmark with a black background and a white border, and it looked more like a playing card than a bookmark.

The main part of the painting depicts a lady with a pretty face and a slender figure. She is wearing a revealing black gauze dress, bare feet, dark eyes, and gorgeous jewelry on her chest, head, and arms. Her appearance does not resemble that of any country such as Loen, Intis, or Feysac, but is more similar to the elves of the Western Continent, except that she does not have pointed ears.

She held a strangely shaped wand in one hand and a transparent crystal ball in the other, looking like a witch from a fairy tale.

Adele subconsciously pinched the card, but it did not cause any damage, only left a faint white mark. Her nails were gently held back by some unknown force and could not cut the card.

This card is not simple...

Adele calmly hid the card in her sleeve and caught up with the group before Tracy realized she was left behind. She planned to study it herself first, and if there was no result, she would ask other members of the Tarot Club about the origin of the card at the next Tarot Club meeting.

"Why did you stay there for so long?"

Tracy asked curiously when she saw Adele catching up.

Adele did not answer immediately, but pretended to look back with a complicated expression at the dishevelled sailors lying on the ground, and after a while she said:

"...I've only been promoted to Sequence 7 for less than a week. I feel a little emotional."

Tracy was stunned for a moment, then as a fellow witch, she immediately understood what Adele wanted to express. She showed an expression of dismay and gave up the idea of ​​asking further questions.

……

Afterwards, the group left the mine and headed for the top of the mountain. Stopping and walking along the way, it took them about forty minutes to reach the top of the mountain. They stood on the edge of the extinct volcano, overlooking the island shrouded in darkness.

"My suggestion is to hire professionals to plan this deserted island. This survey is not thorough, and I can only make a preliminary estimate, which is only enough to build the coal mine... After all, I am a technician, not a social scientist, and I cannot get the most effective manpower planning results."

Wendy reported her exploration findings to Adele and Tracy, while giving advice based on her professional knowledge.

"I have social science talents here. You just need to do the survey."

Adele waved her hand. Vinata had been complaining for a long time that what she was doing was not related to her major, and now was the perfect time to give her something to do.

In Feysac, the professional classification of universities is very general, and there is no strict professional classification. There are only two categories: science and engineering and social sciences. In addition to studying a large number of general courses, students also have to choose their own professional courses based on their future career direction. This is extremely hard, and this has also made it difficult for Feysac's education to be effective.

"This is raw spinel, but it's of lower purity and it's an ordinary green color. It can barely be sold as a gemstone and doesn't have any extraordinary effects."

Wendy took out a small piece of emerald green stone from her pocket and placed it in Adele's palm.

Adele took the stone and played with it in his hand. The stone felt very soft to his touch, and it was not as sharp as the spinel that could be used to make potions.

"Once you announce that you will mine minerals on this island, the island will become the private property of your company. After all, this island is located in the high seas and no force has occupied it for a long time yet."

Tracy looked at Adele's profile with some emotion and asked, "As the future owner of this island, have you ever thought about giving it a name?"

name……

Adele was a little dazed for a moment. Actually, this island really has no name, and sailors refer to it as "that island". And if she wants to build her own business here in the future, it can't always be like this.

Looking at the whole picture of the island from the top of the mountain, Adele found that there was a flat coast on one side of the island, and three protruding capes on the other side, which looked like a gorgeous three-pointed crown. The "Black Death" and the "Little War Horse" occupied the natural harbor between the two capes, swaying slightly in the evening breeze.

Adele pondered for a while, then slowly said, "Let's call it 'Queen's Island'."
