The wanted notice that she had only seen last night flashed through Angel's mind, and she never imagined that she would meet the traitor of the "Mechanical Heart" here, the extraordinary one who killed two of her teammates, Thomats.

Didn't the wanted criminal escape from the divination and chase of the "Machine Heart" by luck and leave the port of Emmatt in a hurry?

Unexpected visitors also disrupted Thomats's movements, sending a hesitant expression on his face, as if he was thinking about the identity of the intruder and whether or not to kill him.

The fastest reaction was Angel, although she was surprised to meet a wanted criminal here, but the muscle memory of pulling out the gun was far faster than the thought, and before Tomas could turn her face completely to the door, she had already pulled out the "thirst for blood" in the holster on her waist, and before she had time to raise the gun and aim carefully, she aimed at Tomats and pulled the trigger.

"Bang-"

Spirituality was infused with magical items, and the enhanced demon hunting bullet dragged a black shadow out, and the recoil was stronger than expected and almost made Angel's weapon out of his hand, and the bullet also deviated from the aiming position, hitting the wallboard behind Thomats, and the black and purple flames flashed, but failed to ignite the wallpaper.

But even if she aimed and then fired, her blow was doomed to miss.

Thomas reacted the moment Angel pulled out his gun, kicking away the kneeling Carveh and using the reaction force to dump behind the counter on the other side, narrowly avoiding the attack.

"Whoa—"

I don't know what fragile item he bumped into, and Thomats's entire body was quickly hidden behind the counter, out of Angel's sight.

Instead of continuing to entangle, Angel raised his gun and aimed at Tomats's hiding place as he quietly retreated.

She hadn't forgotten that this was a traitor with anti-divination powers, who had killed two of her Extraordinary teammates!

This is not an enemy that one of her Sequence 9 "assassins" can deal with alone.

Now that the gunshots are ringing out, the nearby church of the God of Steam and Machines, as well as the station of the Heart of the Machines, will not turn a blind eye to the conflict in their jurisdiction, and it will not be long before a large number of extraordinary people will arrive on the scene, and they only need to delay the time.

“…… Be careful......"

Angel's heart tightened as Kaveh's weak voice rang out, and she caught a glimpse of flames flickering behind the counter, and a slight explosion by the door behind her, like the sound of firewood burning.

Without looking back, she kicked her feet quickly and fell forward.

The sound of gunfire came from the back of her head, the flames from the muzzle of the gun mixed with the smell of gunsmoke spread, a bullet flew past her scalp, and even two blonde hairs could be seen flying by the bullet.

Use fire to move quickly...... The "Mechanical Heart" team member who was shot in the back and died......

Angel's brain was racing, and these traits coincided with one of the foes she remembered.

The tuxedo clown is the same extraordinary ability as that member of the "Esoteric Order"!

Knowing the other party's potion sequence, her heart calmed down.

Although the other party is very strong, it is no longer mysterious, and his previous combat experience is an advantage.

The moment his body fell to the ground, Angel's left hand that was not holding a gun pressed the ground and propped up, rolled half a circle to the right, and left its original position, as expected, a second gunshot rang out, and the bullet hit the floor to pieces.

Turning to his back to face Thomats, who appeared behind him with a flash of flames, Angel raised the muzzle of the "Thirsty for Blood" gun and pulled the trigger at the opponent.

As if prepared, Tomas gracefully turned to the side, dodging the counterattack, with a mocking smile on his face, and moved the muzzle of the gun slightly, re-aiming at Angel who was lying on the ground.

A golden flame with a purple flame burst out behind him, and a dreamlike purple-black point of light floated past him, and then a burning sensation came from the bare skin of his head and neck, causing the revolver that Thomas held in his hand to shake involuntarily.

"Ah...... I...... ...... the you"

Thomats's trembling lips spat out a few unspoken words, and before he could take aim, he pulled the trigger fiercely at the figure lying on the ground.

Faster than he was, a large-caliber bullet dragged the black flame through his body, interrupting his foul words.

…… No, the bullet hit only a paper figure burned by the flames, and Thomats's emaciated body became smaller and thinner as if compressed, and then was pierced by the flaming bullets fired by "thirsty blood", and the black flames surged, burning the paper figure in an instant.

The ashes drifted in the purple-black phantom phosphorescent powder, and Thomas was no longer there.

This is also one of the extraordinary abilities of the "Tuxedo Clown", the paper man stand-in!

She didn't intend to rely on this shot to solve the other party, but Angel was not surprised at all when she saw the ashes turned into paper figures slowly falling, but hurried up from the ground and left the strengthened "Phantom Phosphorus Eruption" that made her feel terrified.

She has a "Phantom Phosphorus Eruption" in the nest of five rounds of "Thirsty for Blood" to assist and interfere with the enemy, and usually sets the position of this bullet to the second round, so that even in case of emergency, the first round of ammunition will be live ammunition.

Unexpectedly, the "Thirst for Blood" trait that absorbs the user's spirituality, passively increases the power of ammunition, and has a black flame effect is also useful for auxiliary ammunition.

The "Phantom Phosphorus Eruption" that was shot just now detonated on the door frame behind Thomats's head, which originally had no lethal ability to the human body, and was only used to interfere with the opponent's phantom phosphor powder was ignited by the black flame, causing a damage effect similar to that of an incendiary bomb.

Fortunately, Thomats, as the person closest to the explosion point, blocked most of the black flames for Angel, otherwise she would not have escaped by being so close.

Even so, a lot of the black flame powder that fell in the closed territory also touched the skin of Angel's bare arm, making her faintly feel a little tingling.

Fortunately, the black flame derived from the extraordinary ability of the "witch" is also ineffective against ordinary objects, otherwise I am afraid that this time I would have become an arsonist......

There were many thoughts in her head, but Angel did not dare to relax in her hands, she held the "thirst for blood" in her hand, guarded the surroundings, slowly retreated to the depths of the watch shop, bypassed the motionless white-haired old man, the short-barreled shotgun discarded on the ground, and came to Kaveh's side.

The "Paper Man Double" seems to have a short-range displacement while replacing the Extraordinary with a Paper Man to fend off attacks, and when using a flash of flames, it will move even more unexpectedly to a dead corner that the enemy can't detect.

This is a trick that the tuxedo clown has used many times, and Angel knows that Tomas must be nearby at this moment, and if he still does not give up and is ready to continue the attack, he will most likely return to the scene through the flames again.

She wanted to run away.

If it weren't for the fact that Tomas had just flashed to the door blocking the store, she would have run out into the street, shouting "Mechanical Heart" to arrest the fugitive.

It's a pity that there is still a black flame lingering by the door, unless you protect your face and escape from being burned by the black flame, you can only wait in the store for the floating light powder to lose its effect.

Angel looked sideways at Kaveh, who was clutching his injured shoulder in pain and kicking his feet as he tried to get up from the ground. If it hadn't been for the "craftsman" who reminded him just now, he might have been shot dead by Tomats.

"Are you alright......"

Before he finished speaking, the edge of the Phantom Phosphorescent Powder's effective range was close to the dissipating black flame, and an orange flame burst out of thin air.

Thomats's figure in a trench coat emerged from it, gradually becoming clear.

Angel, who had been prepared, raised his hand and fired a shot, and the bullet hit Thomats's upper body, which was not yet fully formed, and with a crisp pop, it passed through.

Purple-black flames rose high, instantly covering the hit paper figures.

It's a paper figure stand-in again...... But he knew that he would be attacked, why did he waste his spirit in vain? These life-saving abilities should not be able to be used indefinitely, there must be some limitations, right?

While thinking about it, Angel noticed that in the dissipating firelight, a fist-sized spherical object fell to the ground, bounced twice on the floor, and rolled to the counter three or four meters away from her.

Kaveh, who had just stood up, was startled by the sudden appearance of flames, and was unable to stop retreating, and as soon as he saw the orb, he immediately let out a rapid and sharp shout:

"Bomb! Hurry up ......"

Needless to be reminded that Angel has far more knowledge of weapons than his time, and is highly sensitive to spheres of this size.

As soon as the "bomb" hit the ground and began to roll, she kicked out the short-barreled shotgun next to her, hitting the ball parked next to the counter like a bat hitting a baseball, smashing it into the door of the watch store far away from the two.

At the same time, without hesitation, she turned around and ran towards the only cover, the innermost workbench of the watch shop.

As he passed by Kaveh, the "craftsman" still kept his eyes wide and exclaimed, and he did not react further, not knowing whether it was due to excessive startling or his own slow reaction.

“…… Dodge! ”

As Angel grabbed her and climbed into the workbench, there was a violent impact and a loud sound, followed by the clatter of glass breaking.

"Bang-"

The workbench seemed to be grabbed by an invisible giant hand, pressing hard against the wall, and the two people sandwiched in the middle were like meat in a pie, squeezed together, pressed against the wall and crushed heavily.

Angel's throat was bitter, and she spit out an unknown liquid that she didn't know whether it was bile or gastric juice under the violent impact, she had Kaveh as a meat pad in her chest, and she was not directly hit by the workbench, but behind her was the locked back door and the hard wall, and she only felt a heat in the back of her head when pressed by the shock wave on the iron door, followed by a sharp pain, and her head seemed to be inserted with a red-hot steel drill, and the pain seemed to be about to explode.

With a "buzzing" sound in her ears, Angel blinked, her vision slowly turned from blurry to clear, and the sound of unhurried footsteps came from the front door that was completely destroyed by the bomb, trampling on broken glass and wood chips all over the ground from far and near.

She looked over the workbench that had fallen over the two of them, and the figure in the trench coat and the peaked cap was gradually approaching with the light on his back.
