Mia watched Wang Shui's humble posture turn into violent and decisive in an instant, but she was not too surprised.

Because from her point of view, this mysterious guy has always been so violent and arrogant, and that humility has obvious traces of performance.

As for his self-proclaimed name of [Blue Ink], it also gives people a sense of casual nonsense.

And just when Mia was a little distracted, her gaze happened to meet Wang Shui's gaze.

"Do what?"

Mia subconsciously asked this sentence in her heart.

Then, she "heard" Wang Shui's heart:

"In your secret card bag, there is a spell card [Dangerous Goods Warehouse], take it out."

"But that's just a special space for me to put the materials, and there are no finished potions in it right now."

Mia is not used to the thinking network established by [Thinking Lock], so she said the answer in the latter sentence directly.

Wang Shui didn't explain much, just walked quietly towards the door.

In the quiet two-person network, only his voice of "just do it" came softly.

Calm and domineering, that's right, Mia took out the secret card card very obediently.

In fact, Mia is similar to Wang Shui, she usually doesn't play secret cards, but secret cards are such powerful and convenient transcendent items, which are indeed something that transcendents can't refuse.

With some doubts, Mia walked to the royal water at the door, and then a special power was directly connected to her body.

Smack-

Where Wang Shui was standing in front of him, there was a faint and crisp snapping of his fingers.

Immediately afterward, Mia realized that her secret card had been activated.

The familiar flow of energy, the familiar perceptual feedback, and even the energy that activates the secret card are all Mia's own.

No, there are other things mixed in...... It's that guy's power!

Mia walked towards Wang Shui, following the posture of the other party's head up, and looked at the rainy night outside.

That's, the Crystal Dome?!

Mia, who has always lived in the inner city college district, is no stranger to things in the air.

A large number of hexagonal crystal diaphragms are spliced together in the sky to form a spherical dome.

But this is not the inner city, and the background of the dome is not the beautiful night sky, but the lead cloud that she is just as familiar with, a lead cloud that will not dissipate for many years.

This dome is small enough to wrap only the black clinic.

And if you look closely, these crystal diaphragms are not transparent, and the scene outside the small dome is blurry and distorted, making people feel dizzy when they look at it.

Mia felt the connection between the secret card in her hand and the "little dome", but she didn't understand why a simple storage card could inspire such a magical effect.

Wang Shui also did not mean to explain.

He just turned around and patted Mia on the shoulder, and the two of them disappeared in an instant.

After the energy glow flickered, Wang Shui and Mia suddenly appeared in a hall of about 100 square meters.

The hall was surrounded by candles with dark purple flames, a number of scaly beast statues, and several large old-fashioned wooden chests.

And in the open space in the middle of the hall was a dark purple circular circle that exuded the smell of decaying blood.

Mia didn't know the contents of the circle, but she knew that this kind of circular circle had been eliminated for hundreds of years, and what was taught in the school now, and what was circulating in the market, was a square magic array.

At the edge of the circle, there is a young woman in a wheelchair, she is wearing a dark purple dress, somewhat blending in with the feeling of the environment.

She was young and very thin, but her gray skin was covered with old scars.

Mia immediately realized that this young woman was the turbidity creature they had spoken to before, and the other party's eyes looking at Wang Shui were terrifyingly mature.

Wang Shui, who is good at chatting, took the lead in opening the topic:

"You don't have to, really, in order to deal with our two low-level transcendents, you who are favored by the Turbidity Abyss have no need to forcibly evolve at all - the reality is far from irreconcilable, is it?"

Silence returned to the room, and Wang Shui showed considerable patience - he even deliberately kept his hands out and remained motionless.

"The abyss and reality are irreconcilable, and you are just the cornerstone of my promotion."

Although they said tough words, in the perception of Wang Shui and Mia, the other party did give up the charge of the circular circle.

So, Wang Shui struck while the iron was hot-

"Aren't human beings trampling on each other and devouring each other's promotions?

I am a bounty hunter who only believes in results, as long as I can achieve the goal and obtain benefits, any process and means are just judgments and choices based on the environment.

Just like I chose to kill your doctor, didn't that also lead to our face-to-face conversation?

And in this way, we were attacked by you with the "corpse explosion technique", and you yelled at us, which can be regarded as a flattening.

Anyway, I'm out of breath, so why don't you think about it and have a calm exchange? ”

The young woman in the wheelchair almost laughed violently at Wang Shui's unilateral logic.

It's really a good pass-through active and passive swap.

Obviously, it was Wang Shui's side who initiated the investigation first, and he bit it tightly. Now her countermeasures seem to have turned into active persecution in Wang Shui's mouth.

But now, she has to compromise.

"Heh, of course, from the moment you activated that card, we had the conditions to communicate, didn't we?

But as a prerequisite, I need to make sure that there are no "witchers" waiting for me outside of the space you have blocked. ”

"Little things, as you wish."

Smack-

Wang Shui's answer was crisp, and after a crisp snap of his fingers, the small crystal dome outside disappeared.

And then, aqua regia did not block the space again.

The young woman in the wheelchair also glanced at Wang Shuigao after confirming that the "Spatial Teleportation Equipment" on her body had recovered.

The self-confidence and courage of the other party really don't seem like a bluff.

At this time, the short silence was still broken by Wang Shui first:

"I don't want to say it again, my question is very simple - those students, where are they now. Regardless of their status, I just need location information. ”

The young woman continued to be silent for more than ten seconds before she gently spat out a sentence:

"I didn't touch them."

Wang Shui receives:

"Don't be tempted, I don't know your life circle. You won't say it explicitly, just to imply that you can't mess with those guys.

No matter how powerful the locals are, they are not as difficult as the "Witcher", right? So, please speak up, and then get ready to run. ”

The young woman was noncommittal to Wang Shui's slightly threatening words.

Whether it's the "witcher" or that group of people, she doesn't want to provoke, so she's very irritable now.

If it weren't for being deterred by that "Space Cage" type secret card, she really wanted to forcibly evolve and kill the two people in front of her.

She was only afraid that after killing these two very weak guys, she would be trapped by the secret card (Note 1) - if she couldn't escape, she would fall into the hands of the witchers sooner or later.

The rare quiet life must now come to an end.

"Huh, since you want to find death, then try to find the [Turbidity Heart Society]."

An unfamiliar organization name made Wang Shui frown slightly.

"Blissful ignorance."

The young woman's sneer was fleeting, and her body was becoming transparent.

Seeing that Shui Wang had no intention of interfering with the transmission at all, the young woman also breathed a sigh of relief, and then she reported the key information in the form of words one by one:

"Midtown Division, A to H, Eight Subdivisions, Bishop of the Blue Ring."

The sound ended, and the person disappeared.

Looking at the pondering Shui Wang, Mia didn't bother to ask him why he let go of the turbid abyss creature, she already believed in Shui Wang's ability and believed in Shui Wang's choice.

After all, she tossed desperately for more than ten days, and it was not as much as Wang Shui's harvest in half a night.

Mia, who had just remembered to look at the time, was shocked to realize that it was only past three o'clock in the morning.

Excluding the time for Wang Shui to save her, the actual consumption of finding clues is less than an hour.

The progress of the task was quite fast, but Wang Shui retreated at this time.

Hmm-[Turbidity Heart].

Although not very certain, the obvious title of "bishop" indicates that this is a large religious organization with a [hierarchical system].

Turbidity Creature, Religion...... Wang Shui thought of some things that were not very good, and these things were much more dangerous than ordinary cults.

He originally planned to vent his frustration and irritability through a new high-pitch activity.

But now it seems that his second-order small body is a bit unsightly, and the low-level transcendent is indeed very miscellaneous.

And Mia beside him, although she is a third-order transcendent, her physical condition is even worse.

In other words, even if it is an extraordinary person at the peak of the third order, it has only just entered the threshold of the middle level, and the level is not directly equivalent to combat power.

Wang Shui didn't intend to hide it, he first looked at the surrounding environment, and then said bluntly:

"Very unfortunate news, your friends are in big trouble - now, it's our turn.

You've heard the relevant information, and it's clear that the other party is a behemoth. For you and me, if you run into it, you will only send corpse materials to each other in vain.

Therefore, I suggest that you go back first and report today's clues to the [Origin Tree Higher School] behind you, so that they of the same power level can touch them. ”

If it was yesterday's Mia, she probably wouldn't have had enough sanity.

The search and rescue team sent by the school was ready to withdraw, and at that time, her body had reached a limit, a limit to maintain her actions by willpower.

Mia is not afraid of death, but she is in a hurry, and even if she dies, she wants to die with her friends.

Now, she didn't need to rush anymore, so she came to her senses a little more.

Mia also felt that Wang Shui was right at this time, and even if she wanted to search and rescue herself, she should inform the school of these important information.

Seeing that Mia nodded, Wang Shui also continued:

"Without further ado, you write a letter to the command center now, and at the same time write a few more copies and send them to a reliable teacher you know, or some people with resources.

Then, you go back to the command center and wait, and when they organize people to investigate, then you will blend in with the search team. ”

"What about you?"

Mia didn't know why she asked such a question, but she wasn't surprised, as if she should have cared more about the other person.

"Me? Of course I'm going to get out of here quickly, I'm a nobody, and I don't have the protection of the school behind me. ”

Wang Shui's perfunctory words were almost blurted out.

But looking at Mia's gradually complicated gaze, Wang Shui immediately understood that this was the [Passive Logic Zone] of [Thinking Lock] shaping her emotions.

Compared with the "original" Sylvia and her sisters, Wang Shui no longer had the initial caution when setting up Mia's [Thinking Lock].

He boldly uses the vast majority of logical frameworks, which is the result of his research on [Thinking Lock] for many years.

Now Mia does still maintain her own consciousness and soul.

But [Mind Lock] will make her slowly and completely, into a person of Aqua regia—a subordinate, or whatever exists.

At the same time, Wang Shui also set up a mandatory [Loyal Soul Module] to ensure Mia's absolute loyalty.

These designs were implemented together after Wang Shui's careful conception, which was more than safe, but it seemed to be a little anxious.

Wang Shui didn't want to play with his soul, but he couldn't help but practice his results, so he was also a little overwhelmed in the face of this artificially shaped feeling.

"Don't worry about me, no one can catch me."

"Worried? What do you mean? I just want to know what's next for you. ”

Mia had already put away her complicated expression, her voice was still like that, weak and cold, and she didn't develop any emotion.

And she wasn't done yet:

"Even if you're going to run, at least you have to leave your name and contact information, right? Did you ask me to give everything to find you like a needle in a haystack afterwards?

Although you always say that you are a nobody, but the means you show are not something that ordinary people can do, if it is inconvenient to say your name, at least give me a code name or something, right? ”

Tsk - a little embarrassing.

Fortunately, he was wearing a mask, and he was still in the state of driving a clone, otherwise Wang Shui would have teleported away.

"If you call me, you can call me [Blue Ink] and contact my ......"

"Isn't that a fake name you just came up with?"

"Uh...... Yes. ”

"Change it, it's not smooth."

In the weak tone, there was a faint strength, which Mia used when interrogating the gang members before.

"Then call me [Brother Shui]......"

Helplessly exhaled, the mystery that Wang Shui had been holding had dissipated most of it at this time, but fortunately, he didn't need it anymore.

"How can I contact you?"

"Remember this thought frequency and focus on connecting, just like using the dream network."

Wang Shui didn't speak, and his answer appeared directly in Mia's mind.

[Sub-level Network · M】？ ”

"Yes, as you can see, this is a mental network environment built with the help of the dream network foundation.

Automatically adapts data such as voice, text, and images, supports data transcription, supports a small amount of energy transmission, and many other functions are left to you to explore for yourself.

If you have something, you can contact me directly, as long as there is a dream network environment, or we are close enough, the subordinate network can work normally. ”

Mia nodded in a trance.

It's not that she hasn't used the LAN between transcendents, but such a clear and stable experience does subvert her cognition.

"Still have questions?"

Mia shook her head, and when she looked at Wang Shui again, her newly recognized [Brother Shui] had already raised her right hand.

Smack-

The familiar snapping of fingers, the familiar fluctuation of energy, Mia felt the secret card on her waist be activated again.

The glow of energy flickered, and the complex senses made Mia dizzy, and by the time her vision returned to normal, she was already in a cramped room.

The familiar smell of rotten wood and disinfectant water, the familiar wooden bed, only this time, the guy didn't follow.

Mia slowly closed her eyes, and she began to feel the cool breeze blowing in from the window.

After about half a minute, Mia finally confirmed that this was not a dream she had before she died, and tears began to pour out inexplicably, taking away a lot of pressure from her.

She didn't give herself much time.

Wiping away her tears, Mia climbed out of the window and limped into the alley in the drizzling night rain.
