Mystery: Who has seen my brother?

Chapter 17 One month later

It was time to go home. The students were packing up their books and getting ready to go home. An old lady on the podium was trembling as she packed up her books and prepared to leave.

Eve stepped forward and asked, "Teacher, where is Miss Elizabeth?"

"Miss Elizabeth went to church," the old lady said kindly, as if discussing her well-behaved and sensible granddaughter. "Elizabeth is a good girl. Even though I'm an old woman with limited mobility, she often helps me out. She even corrects half of my homework. Yesterday, she even corrected everyone's homework. She was supposed to come after the exams, but something got her late and she insisted on making up for it. No one could persuade her, so she agreed. Who knew she'd actually finish everything? Young people just have so much energy."

Is that so? It’s because of me that I delayed it.

"Thank you, teacher," Eve waved and said, "I'm going to find Miss Elizabeth. Goodbye, teacher."

The church was only a few steps away from the school, and Eve arrived in just two quick steps.

The church is the only place where you can get potions. Through various tasks, such as cleaning the church or preaching, teaching and patrolling, you can accumulate contribution points in exchange for potions. Elizabeth can earn ten contribution points every day by attending classes and one point by preaching in the church, which is why she comes to the church.

Elizabeth looked at Eve outside the church, a hint of envy flashing in her eyes.

She wants to be extraordinary.

"I'm so sorry, Miss Elizabeth." Eve said apologetically, "Isn't it because of me that I didn't go to work the day before yesterday?"

Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, then she reacted, smiled gently, and said, "It's okay, and many of those homework assignments were corrected by Miss Eve."

"But if it weren't for me, Miss Elizabeth wouldn't have to correct so many assignments." Eve shook her head and said, "If you need anything in the future, just let me know. I will go through fire and water to help you."

Elizabeth opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and finally uttered softly, "No, I don't need anything, and I won't let Miss Eve go through fire and water."

"That's just an exaggeration. It's not like we're really going through hell or hell," Eve explained. "What is Miss Elizabeth doing in the church?"

"Accumulate contributions to improve your food." Elizabeth replied. The church is like a department store where you can buy anything as long as you have contribution points.

Eve nodded and said, "I have a younger brother, uh..." The girl gestured with her hands, "about this age. What should I do to send him to school?"

"Children under fifteen can go to school for free," Elizabeth frowned. "Didn't the inspection team notify you? Now hurry up and complete the enrollment procedures. The procedures are done at the church. Just bring your brother here."

"Thank you, Miss Elizabeth." The man disappeared as soon as he finished speaking.

Eve quickly dragged Ouroboros from home and completed the enrollment procedures for Ouroboros and exchanged some stationery for him. In order to save money, she also exchanged some cloth to make her own schoolbag.

After sending the boy back, Eve ran to the service office to clean up, and then had to cook when she got back. She felt that her life was really too difficult.

But fortunately, after finishing all the extra things, life was not so busy anymore, and a month passed quickly and uneventfully. It can't be said to be uneventful, because three unusual things happened.

One was that Ouroboros had grown into a teenager in just a month. However, after being shocked to find out he was only three months old, she wasn't surprised. She prepared a room for Ouroboros, but the bed alone cost Eve a lot of her contributions, and they suddenly became poor again. So after Ouroboros finished his studies, Eve sent him to the choir to sing praises to Mikhail every day to supplement the family income.

Another was Miss Elizabeth becoming a "Hunter." Eve was very surprised by this, and Elizabeth explained that Hunter potions require less contribution, are more powerful, and their keen observation skills allow them to avoid many risks when they are weak in the early stages. Because of the needs of the war, Mikhail strongly encourages everyone to choose the path with stronger combat power, and has specifically lowered the price of potions for Hunter, Warrior, and other paths.

The last one was the news about the Beyonder characteristics of the witch Sequence 2, which Eve was most concerned about and eagerly awaited. She had also divined it herself, but perhaps because she was only at Sequence 3, there was no useful information.

Because they didn't want to engage in a premature confrontation with the other gods, the angels who couldn't move the gods but hadn't submitted to them all hid away. At their level, even a true god would have difficulty finding them if they truly wanted to hide. Mikhail's ability to accurately locate an angel with the characteristics of a Sequence Two Witch within a month was truly remarkable.

In order to try out the ritual and gain combat experience, they unanimously decided that Eve would complete the kill.

For this reason, Mikhail specially transferred Eve to the city-state closest to the angel territory.

At this moment, Eve was standing on the wall of this city-state.

Although she could cast a gaze, it was too easy to be discovered.

According to Mikhail's information, "He" should still be the Three-Headed Holy Temple. The characteristics of non-adjacent paths make "He" crazy, while she is rational, which is one of her advantages.

However, both paths are not weak in combat, especially the Shepherd Path, which is the strongest in the same sequence after Sequence 5, and it is also a higher sequence of Eve's path. Sequence 3 and Sequence 2 are a huge gap, and Eve has almost no chance of winning in combat.

So Eve never thought from the beginning that she could beat Sequence Two through the same path, but she could give Sequence Three a try.

You are indeed powerful as an angel, but if I use the true god-level purification, how will you respond?

Normal purification, even at the level of a true god, would take a long time to completely extract the extraordinary characteristics of an angel, and the extraction of the extraordinary characteristics would be felt immediately. However, Mikhail could mobilize the Chaos Sea to temporarily possess power above that of a god, greatly reducing the time required, and the time required was bought by Eve.

"Okay," Eve touched the secret medal on her chest, took a deep breath, clenched her fists and silently encouraged herself in her heart, "Keep going."

The girl jumped off the city wall and after landing smoothly, she infused spirituality into the Medal of Concealment, silently chanted "Amanisis" in her heart to enter the secret state, and then quietly moved towards the territory of the Witch Angel.

Then she circled the territory and came to the opposite direction of the city-state. Although the city-state was far away from the angel territory, it would still be affected if a large-scale disaster occurred, so she had to lead Him away immediately after the battle began.

The telescope couldn't see that far, so Eve had to observe it herself.

The first step was to find rivers and lakes. As a mythical creature, He didn't need water, but the humans He raised did, so there had to be one nearby. The surface of water was a natural mirror, and the importance of mirrors in a witch's battles was self-evident. Using mirrors to move quickly was also a key factor in luring Him away, so she had to first identify nearby bodies of water.
