Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 193 Witch Assassin

Chapter 193 Witch Assassin
After getting enough information, Adele left the tavern. Of course, she left invisibly and did not go down the stairs directly.

If those gentlemen had come down fully dressed less than ten minutes after they had brought me upstairs, it would have been a devastating blow to their reputations...

Adele couldn't help but smile, secretly sighing that she was too gentle and considerate, and was simply not suitable to be a witch.

Adele discovered a lot of interesting things in the memories of the gang members just now. In Indo Port, the most influential people were not pirates, local government agencies, or even church forces, but local gangs.

Originally, in Feysac, where the people were tough and martial, the Church of the God of War had absolute power to suppress them. But since Feysac was defeated in the War of Faith, the Church of the God of War's control over the major cities has become weaker day by day.

Especially in the Port of Indo, which allows travelers from all countries to reside legally, the gangs have absorbed a large amount of aid from other countries, gained actual control over the docks, controlled the channels for trafficking and selling various addictive drugs, controlled the right to purchase and sell arms, and controlled everything that did not originally belong to them.

In Indo, and even in the dozen or so small and medium-sized cities around it, there are gangs. Perhaps the gangs formed by the plateau people who have fled to Loen are not enough to scare the local capitalists in Loen, and they may even just use them as useful dogs. But in Fessac, the status of gangs and small capitalists is reversed. In the eyes of the underworld bosses here, all the entrepreneurs in Indo Port are their treasury.

"This is the bad thing about a country with only one religion. Once the true god behind it falls, the order of the entire country will fall into chaos..."

Adele was a little hesitant, wondering whether she should go back and erase the memories of those guys.

Just now, Adele saw in their memories that the man she poured ice cream on belonged to the largest gang family in Indo Port, "Esco". Although he was only a small leader in this gang with a total of 10,000 people, it was still a bit troublesome to deal with him. After all, in such an organization that completely ignored laws and regulations, this kind of family affection often became an effective constraint.

After thinking about it, Adele decided to go back. Anyway, it would not be good to cause trouble to the pub.

The bartender should thank me very much. Although your attitude is not very polite, at least I don’t intend to put the blame on you...

Adele shook her head and was about to go back when she suddenly heard dull gunshots in the distance, as if someone was firing into the air.

After hearing the gunshots, the pedestrians who were originally walking on the street seemed to be frightened birds. They fled in all directions and found somewhere to hide. The windows that were originally open were closed and the homeowners pulled down the heavy window bolts.

Adele's pupils shrank slightly, and he found that the local residents' fear of the gangs far exceeded his imagination. The gangs in Backlund were nothing compared to this, as they could scare the people of Feysac like this.

However, without pedestrians, she didn't need to worry about anything. She raised her hand and pulled out the Blood-Tearer from under her skirt. The blade blessed by Lilith's afterimage shone crimson in the moonlight. Then, she took out a short wand made of white oak from her heavy classical robe and held it in her other hand.

A witch can attach her own frost or fire abilities to her wand, which can be automatically triggered as long as she infuses it with spirituality. It can also be triggered when using a wand substitute. The only difference is that the former can be used multiple times, while the latter will disappear when the wand is damaged.

Several wands were used up in the previous battle on the ship, and now Adele only had this wand for making ice arrows, which was valid for less than a month. She didn't bring a revolver with her when she went out this time, so she could only use this to make up the number.

Adele walked quickly on the snow, and the snow made a regular crackling sound under her feet. When she was more than a hundred meters away from the bar, the assassin's night vision allowed her to see what was happening in the distance.

A dozen strong Feysac men wearing thick winter windbreakers and deerstalker hats surrounded the bar with high-pressure steam rifles and revolvers. Several others were carrying firewood there, seemingly intending to burn down the bar.

Adele paused to think for a moment, then deftly rolled up the hem of her robe and turned into a narrow alley. Then, she jumped up, kicked off the wall on one side, and repeated the same trick when she reached the other side. She jumped onto the roof of the two-story building several times.

She skillfully jumped between the buildings, silently, leaving only a small dust of snow behind her. Her movements were light and agile, and even the most agile primates would be impressed by her climbing skills.

Since accepting the mission to assassinate Baron Sinderas, she has never tried this assassination technique again. Her fighting style is different from Sister Vespe's. Her body is not as strong as Vespe's. She will lose blood if she is hit by a steam rifle, and she will die if she does not use a substitute in time.

However, she has a more subtle method, a method unique to assassins who live on the dark side.

She quickly approached the bar and jumped down from the back door of the store where there were relatively few gangsters. Her black robe fell silently like a black cloud, covering the entire head of a gangster, and shrouding his unuttered screams and spurting blood inside the black robe.

This was the first one, she counted silently.

Before the body fell to the ground and made a sound loud enough to alert the people around, Adele's legs, which had been bent over by the momentum of the fall and were on his shoulders, suddenly straightened up, allowing her to jump into the air towards another gang member who had his back to her, causing the man's deerstalker hat to fly up in a spiral and fall dejectedly to the snow.

The short-bladed rapier in her hand plunged into the neck of the next person. She spun around in an unimaginable movement, and the sharp blade crushed the opponent's chest. Blood spurted out from under the hem of her skirt, but Adele had already jumped to the next target.

When she had killed the last person in the courtyard, the first victim's deerstalker hat fell to the ground.

Adele took the revolver from the last person, preventing it from falling into the mud and causing it to malfunction. Then she looked at the bar with some regret. At this time, the front hall of the bar was on fire, and the thick smoke formed a natural camouflage.

"What a shame... I quite like it here."

She shook her head and disappeared into the smoke.
