They tried their best to cover up what happened on September 9.1st through the only two major information dissemination channels currently available - the Internet and newspapers.

One was a book signing in Old Siegel City.

The second was the attack on Holkodu Hospital.

The former was not so bad, after all, Borg had already given the onlookers a heads-up.

The latter is difficult to deal with.

The noise that night was so loud that the loud explosions could be heard and the flickering flames could be seen from several kilometers away. In particular, Kate's final cooperation with Elvira to control Zajik's giant light and shadow was filmed and has been widely discussed in the past few days.

The Flores family could only attribute it to a "miracle" and urgently asked the government to clarify, saying that the attack on the hospital was just a drill, but the force was not controlled well and the act was too realistic, which accidentally caused casualties. The merciful "Lord" could not bear it anymore and thought that they did not know the seriousness of the matter, so he punished them and destroyed a main building as a punishment.

Don't worry about whether the logic makes sense or not, just force yourself to make it work.

Throw out some gossip and scandals about public celebrities to reduce the heat.

This action made Sean laugh.

Besides feeling funny, it was also kind of cool.

Because they did take revenge on the Flores family, but due to face, the other party did not dare to speak out.

But Elviri suddenly said, "Don't laugh yet."

Sean: “Huh?”

Is it not allowed to laugh?

Iris suppressed her smile and motioned for Sean to continue reading.

Sean had no idea what the two women were saying, so he turned to the other side of the newspaper suspiciously.

Then I saw my own photo.

"Shocked! A large-scale terrorist attack broke out in Old Siegel City on the afternoon of September 9.1st. After police investigation, the well-known fantasy novel writer Sean is a major suspect and is suspected to be the leader of the terrorists!"

"According to statistics, 153 police officers died in the attack on the day of the book signing event. The State Police Department has set up a special task force and issued a Class B arrest warrant for Sean. The photo is as follows. If anyone sees his whereabouts, please report it to the local police station or call the hotline in time."

"Reward: 500000"

Sean: “???”

No, did he really become a wanted criminal?

F**K you, Floris family, are you polite?

Iris suppressed her laughter: "Now you know why I told you not to laugh?"

"Wait a minute." Sean was unconvinced, "Why am I the only one wanted?"

He had thought that there might be such a day for him - he had thought of it as early as when he decided to embark on the path of a wizard. After all, the government and the police station were on each other's side, and issuing a wanted warrant was just a matter of a word. This was only a B-level, not the highest level. It was just a statewide wanted warrant, and there were A-level and S-level warrants above it.

Sean could understand all of this, the only thing he didn't understand was why only him?

Elviri, Kate, Iris, and even Isa, which one of them is not of higher rank than him?

Obviously, they were the ones who killed those people!

He just went there to play a supporting role, and they targeted him?

"Because they know that the wanted warrant is useless to us," Elviri said.

Wizards at level three can practice illusion spells and have the ability to resist most firearms. In this era, wizards at level four and above can be considered high-level wizards with more means. Ordinary police can't find them at all, and even if they do, they will only die.

Therefore, the Flores family will not issue a warrant for their arrest, but will only look for opportunities to set up an ambush like they did this time at the hospital.

Only Sean was different.

If the information Quill has is not updated in time, then Sean's patient file in the Flores family may still remain at the first level. Who else can be wanted if not him?

"These guys must be birds, right?" Sean complained crazily. Why are they like young eagles in the wild bird forest, always picking on the weak?

"And another sad news."

Iris said, "When I and I went to help you trace your whereabouts these two days, we found some cash in your suitcase at the motel. You should have taken out all the money before going to the Black Fruit Rain Forest?"

"This is a very smart move, because from today on, you will no longer have the opportunity to withdraw money. Your bank card has been frozen and your ID card has been blacklisted. In short..."

"You may have to be prepared to beg for food next."

Iris blinked and gave him some advice: "Or seek help from some kind-hearted person."

Whether it is the most basic living needs or the various potions needed to improve rank, money is needed.

In any era, you can't get anywhere without money.

Sean understood Iris's hint and subconsciously looked at Elviri.

"Why are you looking at me?" The girl turned her head away proudly and snorted, "Find a way yourself."

Chapter 43 Alola Town

Experienced friends know that being wanted is not an easy life.

Money is secondary. The main thing is that you have to hide wherever you go, which makes it inconvenient to do anything.

He is now a walking 50 yuan. In this era, 50 yuan is enough to live in a luxurious villa. Which enthusiastic person can resist such temptation?

Witch potions can solve this problem. It is not necessary to change gender, but just change body shape and appearance. However, witch potions are high-level alchemical potions and are not cheap. Long-term use will cost a lot of money.

It's a dead end.

The Floris family was really angry this time and directly increased his strength.

The witch hunt coupled with the Class B wanted warrant will fundamentally squeeze his living space smaller and smaller, forcing him to reveal his whereabouts.

Sean had previously thought that the popularity brought by the book signing event would allow him to sell a few more books, and perhaps earn a lot of money, but the facts proved that one cannot have any illusions about the enemy, and the means of capital are far more ruthless than he imagined.

He was only half right.

During the three days that Sean slept, his books were indeed selling like hot cakes. Many bookstores were even out of stock. It could be said that the supply could not meet the demand. The publishing house was working overtime day and night to print more copies, because the purpose of the wanted notice was not only to issue a wanted notice, but also a gimmick.

What made a writer who is obviously talented and could make a living by his looks choose to become a terrorist and embark on the path of no return of abandoning his beliefs and committing crimes?

The answer may be in the book.

Some people say that his books are very enjoyable to write and the protagonist has everything he wants, which means that he has nothing in reality. This is the last fantasy of a otaku writer before he goes crazy. He hopes that this society will be as he wishes, and his extreme personality has already begun to emerge.

Some also say that he depicts a beautiful utopia where everyone is striving for their ideals and knowledge is power. From this we can see that the author of the book should have a high level of education and hopes to change his destiny with knowledge. However, the reality is just the opposite. Through this "utopian" creative method, the author has endowed the work with extremely profound connotations, cleverly satirizing the stupidity and injustice of modern society, and also prompting him to go further and further on the anti-social path, ultimately causing a catastrophe.

Sean: "..."

To be honest, he himself didn't know that the stories he wrote were so profound.

It is estimated that when he is really caught and killed by the Flores family one day, the other party will make the news of his death public and forge a confession note to stir up the popularity, and his book will sell well.

In short, money was indeed made, but it had nothing to do with Sean himself.

Not only did Quill's death fail to stop his enemies from exploiting him, it made things worse.

They wanted to kill him, but they also wanted to use him to seduce other wizards and make money from him.

If he could tolerate this, Sean would not be Sean anymore.

Just bear with it for a while at most.

Wait for him to make a careful plan first.

"I want to go out for a walk." Sean said.

He likes to think while taking a walk. For psychological reasons, he always feels that his steps can drive his thinking, making his brain work faster and not be limited by the current predicament.

Iris teased, "Are you feeling okay?"

This is a typical case of asking a question even though you already know the answer.

She and Elvira had both read Sean's physical examination report. Apart from "cellular fatigue", a wizard-specific description that is equivalent to "overwork" in modern terms, there was nothing wrong with him.

This is really an incredible thing. Judging from the magic power that Sean unleashed that night, he must have used some secret spell that overdrafted his body's functions. If nothing else, he at least lost a kidney. But Sean was like nothing happened and just rested for a night - the next morning, Sean's body had recovered before he even woke up.

Obviously, this man is far from as simple as they thought.

This guy definitely has a secret.

Elvira and Iris both looked straight at Sean, as if waiting for his explanation.

They wouldn't ask, but if Sean was willing to talk about it, they would definitely want to hear it.

Sean pretended not to understand the hidden meaning of Iris's words and snorted, "Is my body okay? I'll know if I can give it a try."

Iris' eyes curved: "Really? Then I really need to find an opportunity to try it."

They were all adults, and she didn't mind joking around with the mysterious and handsome writer occasionally.

Elviri glared at him unhappily and said, "If you fall, no one will help you."

She was actually more curious about Sean than Iris, not only because of his extremely unscientific physique, but also because of the spell he used in the hospital that night. Those characters gave her a strong sense of familiarity. She seemed to have seen them a long time ago, but she couldn't remember where she had seen them.

but it does not matter.

Just because you can’t remember it today doesn’t mean you won’t remember it tomorrow.

For a reshaper like her, past memories will slowly recover over time.

And she is not stupid. If Iris can see it, how could she, as the person involved, not notice it?

Elviri didn't think that a "friend" like her whom she had only met a few times was worth Sean risking his life to save. This guy probably wanted to do more than just be friends with her.

Of course, her requirements will also increase accordingly, as she doesn't like dishonest people.

A few minutes later.

Sean pulled out the IV drip and came out of the hospital accompanied by Elvira.

Iris received a phone call and left, saying that she had something to deal with, but I don’t know whether it was true or not.

Elviria didn't stop her this time. Once was fine, but twice would seem deliberate, as if she was afraid of being alone with Sean. She and Sean were innocent and there was nothing to be afraid of.

The two of them strolled on the grass.

The scene before him was completely different from what Sean had imagined.

This is a vast farm with fresh air mixed with the fragrance of earth.

Sean thought the hospital ward looked very high-end and he should be in a big city, but it turned out to be in the suburbs of a small country town, and the hospital was converted from an original house.

The farm has been preserved. Some people are grazing sheep on the grass, and some are sitting on small benches painting. At first glance, it gives people a feeling of tranquility and leisure, but it is still full of life, because in the other direction is the town, and you can see the dense and simple outlines of buildings when you turn your head.

A child was riding a bicycle out of the town, with a bag slung over his shoulder with newspapers rolled up in the bag. He was smiling as he brought today's morning paper to everyone.

In fact, it was almost evening now, but due to the remote location of the town, hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest city, it took a lot of time to get the newspaper, so everyone read the morning paper from outside as the evening paper.

"Sister Yan Ya, good afternoon."

"Good afternoon to this gentleman as well... He looks familiar."

The boy passed by the hospital and greeted the two men. His big eyes blinked, as if he was searching for Sean's name in his mind.

Sean smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Sean."

"Oh, Mr. Sean, I know you!" The boy suddenly realized and cheered, "We are the latest wanted criminal in West Laker State, yay!"

Sean's smile froze: "..."

You might as well not know me.

Elviri wanted to laugh, but seeing Sean's resentful look, she held back and motioned the boy to continue delivering newspapers. She comforted Sean, "Don't worry, there are many people like you here."

"Are they all wizards?" Sean asked.

"Yes." Elviri did not hide it from him, "This is Alola Town, the offline base of the Dawn Council."

……

Chapter 44: Miss Flame Crow's Principles

Almost all the people who attacked Flores Hospital that night were from the town of Alola.

Everyone in the town is a wizard, including the shepherd who herds sheep, the old artist who paints, and the little boy who delivers newspapers.

This can be said to be the largest gathering place for wizards in the entire state of Xirakel, with more than ten thousand wizards living here for a long time.
