Chapter 289 Boring results, no winner 1

The bright sunshine fell from the sky, gently caressing every inch of the city. Although it successfully dispelled the chill of late autumn, it failed in front of the gloom in people's hearts.

Outside the transparent glass wall of the hotel restaurant facing the street, the number of pedestrians on the street was obviously much sparse. Whether they were foreign tourists or local residents, almost all of them looked frightened, looking around cautiously, and hurried past, as if there were people behind. It was like an invisible vicious dog was chasing me.

Nearly half of the shops on both sides of the road have signs saying they are temporarily closed.

After all, the "lively scene" last night was too exciting even for New Orleans people who have fun ingrained in their bones. In a short period of time, except for those who were mentally strong enough to enter the extraordinary realm, not many Individuals can adjust their mentality.

Black armored police cars reflected the dim cold light, and the heavily armed police officers roared back and forth, patrolling vigilantly at every intersection. There were even a few small dots hovering over the old city where security was usually poor. If it was Someone dared to take advantage of the situation at this time, and the snipers on the helicopter didn't mind venting their anger from yesterday.

The panic of the ordinary people stems from the strange attack with strong magical overtones, but what makes those extraordinary people who think highly of themselves and are brave and talented are shocked and inexplicable is another shocking event.

"...Is the situation over there actually so serious?"

Zhu Mingyao sat at the neat dining table, looking away from the street, his expression solemn and a bit unbelievable.

Madison's bitter and weak voice came from the cell phone in his ear.

"So I'm telling you, don't come to visit at all. That's asking for trouble. President Fiona's current mood is like an active volcano about to erupt. The surrounding area has been tightly sealed and all visits are refused. Anyone who dares to sneak in and spy has been caught and thrown into prison. If there is no one to guarantee, it may be difficult to walk out alive..."

She must have experienced several life-and-death battles and strengthened her willpower a little. In fact, compared to her companions, she was already very calm.

The girl's words were full of confusion and uneasiness. The organization was almost completely destroyed overnight. Such a terrifying sudden disaster had a huge psychological impact on her.

In a corner of the ruins of the manor, the little witch waved a cubit-long red wand. The soil rolled up on the messy and pitted ground, and high walls rose up. Strange strings of brown and yellow runes flashed past, soft and dark. The soil turned gray and hard, joining together to form a temporary camp, blocking the view of the outside world.

She looked over and saw that quite a few young apprentices and even adult witches had dull faces, as if they were distracted. They frequently made mistakes in even simple cleaning tasks, and she couldn't help but sigh and shake their heads slightly.

Most of the headquarters has been destroyed, but you are still thinking about that, you stinky beauty, if you were my apprentice, you would be caught and spanked...

Seeing Zoe standing on the wall setting up a defensive array, she coughed slightly and made a secret gesture. She tightened her face and took the time to explain the issue she was most concerned about.

The signal was blocked and the blind tone came. Zhu Mingyao curled his lips helplessly and spread his hands to the people at the table:

Although most people are only injured, and only a handful of them are truly unlucky enough to die, fully recovering their mental state does not happen overnight.

"...Stop talking, the magic barrier is about to be raised. Remember, don't forget to ask the official to deliver the promised bottle of fountain of youth..."

"Anyway, for a long period of time, this place will be completely sealed off. We can't go out anymore. You can go back to Luo City by yourself. Okay..."

Taking advantage of the blind corner of the building to avoid other people's sight, the girl continued to talk quietly.

"You also know the situation, what are your plans now?"

Miss Druid and several of her companions looked at each other with confused expressions.

Even though he was born in the grassroots, he received an ordinary education and did not have any keen political sensitivity. But just like small animals before an earthquake, they could also instinctively smell the coming unrest from the attack on the witches, but they just didn't know how to express it for the moment. "Is there any problem with this..." Holgai cut off a piece of T-bone steak and put it boldly into his mouth, then slowly and carefully chewed the juicy meat fibers and asked hesitantly.

Nowadays, only she, who is straight, has such an appetite.

"No matter how you look at it, it can't involve us." The woman swallowed her food and lowered her voice:

"To put it harshly, the power of large organizations has been damaged, and our colleagues in the local private sector may be able to receive more lucrative commissions."

Holgay licked her teeth with unsatisfied content. In addition to the extraordinary equipment they received in advance, the federal government also gave them a considerable salary in their account this time. She was quite apprehensive.

"Because power hates a vacuum." A gentle voice followed the footsteps.

Henk wore a simple black priest's uniform and walked downstairs carrying a brown suitcase. He smiled at a few people, revealing two rows of neat white teeth.

"Want something?" Zhu Mingyao politely pulled out his chair.

"No need to be polite. The official spent a lot of money and used high-level prophecy to make sure that those monsters have escaped far away. Things here are over. I am going to catch a plane soon." He politely signaled to everyone that they do not need to say hello. The old knight sat down gently.

"The southern states with New Orleans as the core have always been the sphere of influence of witches and voodoo sects. Now that one party is suddenly hit hard and the balance is broken, there will inevitably be other forces trying to fill in." He After a pause, he continued to explain.

"Whether it is the Federation, the Voodoo Mistress, or any other force that wants to take the opportunity to do something, it will inevitably cause the witches to react. A wounded beast will often defend itself more fiercely. territory."

Henk's face straightened up and his tone became more serious: "I'm afraid there will be a big disturbance at that time. People like you who have certain strength but do not belong to an organization are the easiest to be taken advantage of by those with ulterior motives, so I It is recommended that you leave for a while to avoid the vortex."

"This is exactly what I want to say." Zhu Mingyao picked up a hazelnut, cracking the hard outer skin without any smoke, revealing the white, crispy and fragrant flesh.

"When faced with possible attempts to woo you from all sides, no matter what your choice, you will offend others. The best way to avoid trouble is to simply run away and come back when the dust settles."

Edkin smacked his lips in distress: "Do we have to go somewhere else?"

He rubbed his cheeks vigorously, feeling very embarrassed in his words. Unlike other bachelor comrades, he has a wife and daughter, and even a temporary move will inevitably interrupt their work and studies.

Thinking of going to a strange city and having to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, his wife going to work and the children's education, Edkin seemed to hear the dizzy music he was playing with all his strength.

Although he is an extraordinary person, he still cannot escape the troubles that a middle-aged man should have.

Seeing his concerns, Zhu Mingyao blinked and promptly presented his planned plan.

"Let's go to Jinzhou and Luocheng. We have family members where we will stay. I will help arrange it."

He smiled and extended the invitation.
