Mystery: The Returner of the Stars

Chapter 217 Steal Extraordinary Features!
St. Mary's Hospital, a large hospital located in the West District, the people who come here to see a doctor are either rich or powerful.

At the gate, Hastur passed by in a carriage and lifted the curtain of the carriage to observe the specific situation of the hospital.

According to the information provided by Will, that Earl Gil will die in this St. Mary's Hospital tonight, and the bed he is currently in is in the fifth ward from right to left on the side facing the street on the third floor.

Hastur didn't stop much, but simply found out, and let the coachman drive the carriage away, passing Klein's Nighthawk team on the way.

This was what he had been told the last time the Nighthawks team came to ask him for help.

Hastur measured the distance between here and St. Mary's Hospital, silently calculating the time needed for the journey.

Tonight, he wanted to snatch Earl Gil's Extraordinary Characteristics, and he needed to fight with people from the Church of Steam and Machinery. Once the fight took too long, it would easily attract the attention of the nearby Nighthawks team.

"It's not a big problem."

Hastur felt that his invisibility should be a quick fix.

Inside a ward at St. Mary's Hospital at night.

Earl Gil, whose life was about to come to an end, stretched out his fingers tremblingly, trying to scold his unworthy children and grandchildren, but in the end he still didn't have the strength, his palms fell on the white quilt, and his eyelids closed tightly.

Soon, there was a burst of sad crying in the ward.

There was a lot of crying, and there were a lot of people crying. The ward was already too crowded. Many people stood outside the hospital corridor and wept silently.

Amidst the bursts of crying, there were also some angry curses. It was Earl Gil's former friend who was teaching Earl Gil's unworthy children and grandchildren.

Max Livermore used to be the captain of a mechanical heart team responsible for guarding the Roselle Memorial Exhibition, because of poor work last time and some private family reasons.

During this time, he has been taking tasks outside to keep himself busy so as not to worry about those annoying things.

This Earl Gil was also a priest of the Church of Steam and Machinery when he was young. He left the church when he was in his 30s and began to mix in the elite circles of Loen.

It took him 30 to [-] years to be promoted from an ordinary baron to an earl, and he was a very good person. The only thing he failed was in the education of his children and grandchildren.

He had a son in his later years, and he only had one son. The overly pampering education made his son a second-generation ancestor who only knew how to eat, drink and enjoy himself.

This time, he even secretly took out the land deeds in the house for gambling. Earl Gil, who heard the news, was in poor health, so he was directly admitted to the hospital in a fit of anger.

During the hospitalization, his son and grandson were not under the control of anyone, and continued to spend time and drink outside, gamble and have fun, and finally managed to kill Earl Gil.

Before Earl Gil died, he received news that he was required to lead two team members to recover the Extraordinary characteristics of Earl Gil after his death.

In order to show the human side of the church's law enforcement, he stood outside the door and waited for half an hour to cry inside before leading the team in and temporarily persuading relatives and friends in the ward.

After closing the doors and windows, the extraordinary characteristics of the corrupt baron in Earl Gil began to be separated out.

This Extraordinary characteristic is not only the Extraordinary characteristic of the Sequence 6 Corrupted Baron, but also includes a total of four Extraordinary characteristics of the Sequence 9 Lawyer, the Sequence 8 Barbarian, and the Sequence 7 Briber.

The value alone is enough to be several thousand pounds. Earl Gil deliberately left his extraordinary characteristics to the church so that the church could help his descendants a little in the future, even though his descendants were not up to the mark.

After the Extraordinary characteristics were separated out, Max Livermore asked the team members to save and seal each piece of the Extraordinary characteristics to avoid possible Extraordinary spread and infection.

This process is very fast, only about 10 minutes.

Compared to the tasks they performed in the past, the task of recovering extraordinary characteristics seemed very simple.

Max Livermore came to the window and swept a little outside to prevent anyone from peeping in the dark.

There are too many Beyonders in Backlund now, and there are more Beyonders who dare to take risks.

If they knew that there was such a big gift in the hospital tonight, they would definitely come here smelling it.

When the four Extraordinary characteristics were separated and preserved, the surroundings were still silent, and Max Livermore let down his vigilance a little bit. He held the safe with the most important Sequence 6 Corrupted Baron Extraordinary characteristics, and the other three were from his Teammates keep.

After the work was done, he led the team members and performed the etiquette of the Church of Steam and Machinery towards Earl Gil, who had closed his eyes on the hospital bed. This was a blessing and a farewell.

While they were saluting, Max Livermore suddenly saw a big golden sword slashing towards his arm holding the safe!

The speed was so fast that he subconsciously wanted to retract his arm, but he frowned slightly, and instead of retracting his arm, he called Iron Arm.

I saw a silver bracelet protruding from his wrist, which flowed like mercury, covering Max Livermore's entire arm, forcibly blocking the golden sword.

Click!

Although the arm was not cut off in response, the silver bracelet was directly split, and his whole body was swept away by a huge force.

Seeing this, the two opponents on the side hurriedly activated their Extraordinary weapons, trying to restrain the assailant.

But in their eyes, they could only see a big sword attacking their captain, and they couldn't see the location of the attacker at all.

At this moment, their captain was kicked out again, and the safe in his hand was finally released.

"captivity!"

One of the team members threw a small round ball, which radiated lightning light, forming a small Thunder Prison to protect the safe inside.

At the same time, the light gray ring worn by another team member on his right index finger changed into a crossbow, and he was aiming at the upward position of the big sword to shoot.

It's a pity that with just a slight swing of the big sword, the small thunder prison was smashed. As for the crossbow arrows that were shot, they didn't even dodge.

A figure wearing armor and whose face could not be seen clearly came out of the invisible state, walked straight to pick up the safe.

"damn it!"

Max Livermore got up from the ground, his face was full of anger, he took out a pocket watch from his pocket, and threw it towards the mysterious figure.

The golden pointer in the pocket watch moved, and the surrounding time seemed to be banned for a moment, and then began to go back.

But the mysterious figure just swept the safe in his hand, and then swept the pocket watch to the opposite wall.

The time that hadn't started to go back was brought out of order again, and it started to flow again.

Another team member took out his side pistol at this moment, ready to shoot.

"Don't shoot!"

Max Livermore hastily uttered a voice to stop it. Because of the commotion in the ward, the people waiting outside the door were afraid that something might happen, so they hurriedly opened the door.

If a shot is fired at this time, it is not certain whether this mysterious person can be left behind. Those people outside will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

Among the people who came to the hospital to deliver Earl Gil tonight, there were many nobles.

Not daring to shoot, the two members and Max Livermore rushed forward to prepare for hand-to-hand combat. They were familiar with the use of extraordinary weapons, replacing weapons such as guns and crossbows with electric batons, big swords, and iron gloves.

At this time, a bloody vortex formed around the mysterious figure.

The blood of the surrounding people will flow out of the body uncontrollably.

"what!"

"How is this going!"

"Get someone to help!"

The people waiting outside the door finally reacted, but because there were too many people waiting in the corridor outside the door, once the situation happened, it quickly caused chaos.

The mysterious figure rushed like a barbarian, knocking several people into the air, and then quickly disappeared around the corner of the corridor.

The three of Max Livermore hurried to catch up while appeasing everyone.

But when they chased around the corner, there was no trace of the mysterious figure.

Max Livermore looked at the empty and quiet hospital corridor, his face turned blue, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Captain, are you still chasing?"

"Chase!"

Max Livermore suppressed the irritability in his heart, leaving one team member to preside over the overall situation here, and led the other team member to chase it out.

But from the moment they found the hall on the first floor from the corridor on the third floor, and even found the outside of the hospital, they didn't see the mysterious figure again.

And they asked the staff in the hospital, and they all said that they didn't find any suspicious people.

Only those who experienced the turmoil in the corridor at the door of the ward on the third floor could clearly see the mysterious figure.

Invisibility?
An invisibility technique that can conceal the whereabouts of spirit bodies!
Max Livermore pondered for a long time with a dark face, and finally figured out how the other party lurked in the ward without alarming anyone, and how he managed to disappear completely after only passing a corner.

Ordinary people can't open their spiritual vision, because they can't see the spirit body of extraordinary people. As long as they hide from the spiritual vision of extraordinary people, they can realize the effect of invisibility.

Although he already knew the principle, he couldn't figure out how the other party would do it.

Because he couldn't do it, many Extraordinary people couldn't completely hide their spirit bodies.

"Captain, what should we do next?"

Max Livermore rubbed his aching brows, waved his hand and said, "Report it, and then draw a portrait of the mysterious figure to see if you can find relevant information from the church's database."

"Earl Gil's relatives and friends want us to give me an explanation, how should we answer?"

"Tell them that there was a thief hiding behind the curtain just now, ready to steal, and we ran away after we found out."

Max Livermore held his temper and began to deal with the aftermath.

After doing all this, he collapsed on the bench in the hospital corridor.

Why did he encounter such unlucky things again?
