Lola was able to guess this information so quickly, and it was not surprising to Angel.

Less than two months after she was promoted to "Joy", it was almost impossible to collect the recipes and materials for the next sequence in advance, and the only way to advance was to directly use the extraordinary properties of "Witch of Pain" to replace the main potion material. And the only "painful" witch in the whole of Bakeland disappeared after the angels of the Orthodox Church were dispatched, Lola could naturally think of where the characteristics of this extraordinary person had fallen.

In the same way, Angel's true identity is also about to be revealed - the "painful" witch trait that fell into the hands of the official extraordinary will not be easily handed over to the wild extraordinary, and it is only possible to get it if she has contributed to this great haze.

This also confirms Angel's suspicion that Lola is aware of the recipe for the potion of "pain" and the law of conservation of extraordinary properties.

As for the exposure of the identity of the "official extraordinary", it is not harmful to "Irene" who is about to leave Beckland, but it can make Lola have some scruples about it.

Therefore, Angel only nodded in a pretended profoundness, and did not open his mouth to answer.

"Heh, I've been guessing your true identity, such as the witch who betrayed the sect, the avenger who has been lurking for many years, but I didn't expect ......" Lola smiled slightly, as if she didn't care about Angel's identity, but her eyes had become cold, "You are very lucky, I have both materials, three days later, you contact me, and I will meet with Vincent and Ling." ”

"The only thing I didn't expect was that you actually completed the 'Joy' role so quickly, I remember that you only got the formula from me for two months, which makes me a little curious about the person who cooperates with you in the role, is he a demigod?"

It's a pity that his sequence isn't even as high as mine...... Angel looked away.

But she specifically mentioned that hunter Wencent because she didn't want to meet alone? Maybe it's because she's jealous of my status as an official extraordinary, or maybe she thinks I'm not inferior to her now......

And judging by Lola's attitude, she doesn't seem to like the official extraordinary...... Well, that's not a strange thing, as most of the wild extraordinaries are.

Angel guessed, and continued to ask:

"Then you, you know the recipe of the potion and have collected the materials, why don't you try to get promoted? You should have finished digesting, right? ”

"It's not so easy for me to move up the ranks......"

Lola looked away and replied slowly.

For some reason, Angel felt that her expression was a little bleak.

————

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool, and everyone."

In the palace above the gray fog, Miss Justice took the lead in greeting everyone as usual, her voice was still soft, but she had lost her former ease.

"Thank you for saving Beckland once again."

She stood up from her high-backed chair, bowed to the long table, and bowed solemnly.

Angel sat between her and Mr. Fool, looking around the long table, and found that several Tarot members had different degrees of movement after hearing Justice's words.

Miss Justice thanked Mr. Fool, perhaps the latter for giving her a hint before the Great Smog, allowing her to use Count Hall's connections to inform all parties, especially the Church of the Night Goddess, to respond appropriately...... And her tone was a little excited, because she knew the number of casualties in the Great Smog? Although the newspapers have not yet reported it, it is not difficult for her to get first-hand information.

Although the hanged man on the opposite side was overseas, he seemed to have a clear understanding of the big haze, and he leaned forward, expressing more interest than surprise; Mr. Sun barely made any physical movements, and he probably didn't know what "Beckland" meant.

Miss Magician, who also lives in Beckland, is quite shocked, after all, Beckland officially claims that the great smog is only caused by the gradual deterioration of the urban environment, and that plague and death are its collaterals, and Miss Justice's words undoubtedly indicate that this large-scale death involves a deeper struggle, and even needs the help of Mr. Fool, a secretive and powerful being.

As for Mr. World in the distance......

Angel looked at the member who rarely expressed his opinion, his face hidden behind the hood and gray mist, his hands hanging under the table, his body unmoved, and no change in mood could be seen.

"My family and I have only offered a small amount of help," Mr. Fool's low, ethereal voice came from the gray mist, "but perhaps you can thank Miss 'Queen' for her many contributions to Beckland. ”

Angel, who was still secretly observing other people's reactions, suddenly felt that everyone's eyes were focused on her, and involuntarily bent down, making herself look smaller, with some doubts and embarrassment in her heart.

Mr. Fool, you said that your help was insignificant, and that my contribution was "quite a lot", which is a bit unbearable......

Audrey also looked at the queen beside her with some curiosity, because she provided key information in the haze, so that Earl Hall could notify the church in time, inform the military and the royal family to take corresponding countermeasures, so she won the unanimous praise of her own parents, and also heard a lot of follow-up investigation information from them.

The altar that summons the "true creator" in the ruins of the eastern suburbs of the city, the large-scale ceremony that has been prepared for a long time in the depths of the eastern district, the "unfortunate fire" of the Red Rose Manor and the martyred prince are all traces of the wrestling of people behind the great smog.

Unexpectedly, Miss Queen can already participate in events at this level...... However, she should be the most combative in the Tarot Society, which is also reasonable......

Audrey thought about it, bowed to Angel, and thanked her.

"Miss Queen, thank you for your efforts, otherwise Beckland is afraid that hundreds of thousands of people will die in this great smog."

Since she learned from Lola about the mutual "constraints" of the three major churches in Beckland, Angel did not say how the angels of the Church of the Goddess came to the city and easily eliminated the disaster, but she did not want to take the credit alone, so she just shook her head lightly and did not answer.

But Miss Justice seemed to take her silence as a tacit acquiescence, and after sitting back in her high-backed chair, she began to tell the story of the aftermath of the Great Smog.

"This is an unprecedented haze created by a certain 'Witch of Despair' that has affected the Eastern District, the Factory District, the Dock District, and parts of the Southern and Bridge Areas, and the poisonous fog has spread for more than an hour, and the subsequent plague has not been completely stopped until now. Although the specific casualties have not yet been counted, there are as many as 80,000 corpses that have been found, most of them are the elderly, children and civilians with pre-existing diseases, plus the serious patients who have not been treated in time, and some casualties that have not yet been discovered, I am afraid that the death toll will exceed 100,000......"

"100,000 people...... How is it ...... than last time"

Angel felt a dizziness in her head, she had deeply experienced the terrible smog, and even almost died from the disease spread by Panatia, and she was mentally prepared for the possible heavy casualties in the East End, but the information revealed by Miss Justice was still beyond her worst imagination.

The second shock is that even "Beckland" doesn't know where Sun Derrick is.

This was far more than the entire population of Silver City, where Darek had grieved the death of his friend and worried about the disappearance of an entire exploration team, but had never imagined that civilians many times the number of people in Silver City would die in an hour, and the mountain of corpses suffocated him in his mind.

The magician Firth, and the fool Klein, who sat behind the gray fog and made an indifferent gesture, also felt a little heavy in their hearts, they were in the city in the past few days, they saw countless patients waiting to be treated, the corpses that were pulled to the suburbs by freight wagons to be burned, and the streets and shops that had become depressed, and they could clearly feel the profound impact of the great smog on the entire city.

Compared to the actions and damage caused by the "Witch of Despair", the bloody sacrifices made by the various gentlemen and ladies of the Aurora Society seem to be just some clumsy jokes.

Waiting for everyone to digest the astonishing news, Audrey continued:

Fortunately, the upper echelons of the kingdom were aware of the possible consequences of the turmoil caused by this incident, and the king took the initiative to make concessions to the parliament and to the three major churches, and many environmental protection bills proposed by the Air Pollution Investigation Committee would be passed by the end of the year, and the minimum guarantee and working hours for workers would be written into the latest laws, and the Poor Law would be amended to be more favorable to the people at the bottom as a reassurance to them.

"Factory owners and bankers have taken the initiative to donate a large amount of property and materials to ensure that there will be no new casualties due to disease and cold this winter, and as compensation, the seat limit in the House of Lords will be relaxed, and those who have received knighthoods through donations rather than hereditary can also enter the House of Lords, and the property restrictions for elections will be adjusted accordingly to favor the emerging wealthy class.

"Due to the contributions of the three major churches, especially the Church of the Night Goddess, the king will allow them to send personnel into the military to enhance their ability to handle otherworldly events. It is said that because the new Archbishop of the Church of the Storm, Radar Valentine, was busy with the handover in the barracks and did not dispel the deadly haze in time, they did not complain too much about the division of the military positions that originally belonged to the Church of the Storm by other churches. And with the opportunity to enter the Eastern Side to help the sick and hunt down members of the Witch Cult, several abandoned Dark Night Churches were reopened, and the corresponding clergy were stationed in the Eastern Side, and the royal family and military acquiesced in these actions. ”

After informing everyone of her own inquiries and what Susie had overheard in the conference room at home, Audrey looked at everyone with expectant eyes, waiting for the Tarot Society's members to comment on it.

The Hanged Man did not disappoint her, and after a moment of contemplation, he sneered in the oppressive atmosphere of the crowd and began to express his opinion.

"This laugh lasted 12 hours"
