Millennium Witch.
Chapter 107, Section 106: Aftermath
Chapter 107-106- Aftermath
Because of the real existence of the End Witch, Yvette began to believe to some extent that the apocalypse might really have originated from a divine descent. At this point, Black Tower Medicine's "Divine Metamorphosis" and Lin Tui Bio's "Seed Erosion" became highly suspicious "team annihilation engines".
Now, the two little girls are gone, and a monster that appears to be a mutant has appeared in the park. But the monster has mysteriously disappeared, whether it is dead or left on its own... But all of this helps her to be sure that it is most likely Zero and Number One.
However, over the years, she has come to understand her own abilities quite well and has never discovered that she has the ability to create or manipulate aberrations.
Does this mean that this is Number One's ability?
What is her connection to the Witch of the End?
If not, that's fine, but if she did... did she borrow the power of the evil god and receive the evil god's blessing, or was she herself the evil god later?
Or, like many tragedies in fantasy novels, in the end, she became the vessel for the descent of an evil god?
……
To prepare herself mentally, Yvette considered almost every possibility, so that whatever the outcome, it would be within her expectations.
Back then, that's how she posted predictions on Tieba. Whenever there was an e-sports competition, she would post predictions for all the possibilities, and after the results were announced, she would delete the incorrect ones. That's how she became a great prophet.
Hmm, those were the days... Yvette thought, then suddenly remembered something else.
While she was at the bottom of the Abyss Base, she saw the last words of "Aiselin Omega," the granddaughter of the Black Tower Medicines.
It claims that the "divine transformation" of the Abyss Base was not leaked, and the anomaly originated from the sea.
Can it now be identified as fraud?
Zero and One have both escaped, and there may be mutants lurking in the Rustbone human trafficking camp. How can you say there hasn't been a leak?
However, the information at the time confirmed that the apocalypse did not occur within 21 years after the original owner participated in the metamorphosis plan, so the actual time of the apocalypse may be later, perhaps several decades away from now.
There are indeed many variables during such a long period of time. Could it be that Zero and One were caught and taken back later?
……
A moment later, Yvette led the 13 rescued people to the entrance of the industrial park and called over the 18 people in the woods outside, and counted their numbers.
That's 310 million credits!
Yvette was very satisfied, and her gaze toward Donil and the others became increasingly friendly, as if she were looking at walking banknotes.
After searching, the survivors drove the transport vehicles out of the industrial park and headed straight for the border customs between Fusjiang and the United States of New Eden under the cover of night.
……
In the early hours of the morning, the United States Customs and Border Protection building, which should have been largely darkened, was suddenly brightly lit again due to the unexpected situation.
After waiting for a while in the tea room inside the building, Yvette saw a middle-aged man in a uniform walk in. He walked straight up to her, accompanied by several other people, and seemed to be of high status.
"Young lady, you must be Miss Ice Rain Theon, also known as... Nameless?" The middle-aged man looked her over with suspicion.
“Hmm.” Yvette stood up.
“Wow…it’s incredible, a hero emerges from among the young…” The middle-aged man exclaimed for a moment, then extended his hand and smiled, saying, “I am the chief here, ‘Charlieson Edwards.’ It’s a pleasure to meet you, our great hero!”
“Hello, Chief Charleson.” Yvette extended her hand and shook his. “Do I need to give a statement?”
"I'm here to take your statement," Chief Charleson said with a smile.
"Aren't you the bureau chief here?"
"What happened? Miss Wuming, you didn't just save one or two people, you saved 31 people in one go and destroyed two terrorist hideouts... This is too important, and I hope to find out how you did it right away."
Eve nodded. She hadn't expected that the director of the Customs and Border Protection would personally take her statement, and that the statement would be taken not in a small room, but directly in this tea room. The treatment was indeed very special.
Then, without any hesitation, she immediately explained the general situation.
However, the combat part was naturally simplified a lot, and it directly became "I launched an attack on the human traffickers, and the human traffickers not only did not surrender, but also dared to fight back. I used magic to kill them one by one."
Charleson was somewhat skeptical of this explanation, feeling that the girl's description was too pretentious.
However, he understood where the nameless lady's combat techniques came from and didn't ask further—mercenaries' strength was more or less involved in shady dealings, but that wasn't within the customs bureau's scope of business. The nameless lady said that those techniques were all her own original creations, so he took it as true.
The lengthy interrogation process lasted for more than three hours. Not only the Customs Service, but also the Department of Homeland Security, the higher-level agency, sent people at lightning speed to ask a lot of questions.
By the time Yvette finished taking her statement, dawn was breaking outside, and a pale white light could be seen on the horizon.
Back in the break room, looking at the yawning Director Charleson and the Homeland Security staff, Yvette asked, "Can I go now?" "So eager to leave?" Charleson said, "You can stay here for a few days."
"Huh?" Yvette didn't understand why he was trying to persuade her to stay.
“Young lady, do you know how glorious your deeds are? Reporters will definitely flock here in the next couple of days. Don’t you want to wait a bit and share the details with them?” Charleson said with a smile.
Yvette shook her head: "Cromwell filmed a lot of material, that's enough, and the details are all in the transcripts, you can release them later."
"So low-key? No wonder you're called Miss Wuming. It's no wonder you disappeared after becoming famous last year. If it were anyone else, they would have started live streaming by now." Charleson showed an expression of admiration.
Even the ancient civilizations are into live-streaming e-commerce... Yvette clicked her tongue inwardly.
Because the Rusty Bone Free State unilaterally grants visa-free access to the United States of New Eden, Yvette didn't need to apply for a visa, but she didn't have a passport either. Fortunately, with Chief Charleson's help, she got her passport back in just a few hours.
Concerned that Zero and One might still be in Fusjiang, Yvette crossed the border again and headed towards Fusjiang, quickly disappearing into the dark wilderness.
……
The next morning, just before lunchtime, the victims, who had slept soundly all night, finally woke up and began to cooperate with the staff in taking statements—because there were too few staff members in the early hours of the morning, the statement taking had been delayed until now.
After taking a short break, Director Charleson went to his office and reviewed the materials with the others.
That's right, Cromwell's statement has only just begun, and the footage captured by the electronic eye has only just been extracted. Before all this, everyone's understanding of the situation was limited to the unnamed woman's account.
"My God, what is this? How did all those human traffickers die all of a sudden?"
"She was completely unharmed after being attacked by the Flame Cannon, is she really human?!"
"Could she be a humanoid magical mech?"
After seeing the video footage, the police officers, customs officials, and Homeland Security specialists were all shocked.
This is completely different from what I learned from the anonymous woman in the early hours of the morning!
Although the crucial scene of defeating the human trafficker leaders "Black Sword" and "Dead Eye" is missing, the intensity of the battle can still be felt through the ruins of the top floor that were completely demolished afterward.
This isn't about arresting human traffickers or gangsters; this is the war on terror!
At this moment, Chief Charleson, along with the adjutants and secretaries who were taking statements, finally understood the true value of the nameless woman's words: "The human traffickers not only did not surrender, but dared to fight back against me."
So she wasn't just showing off after all?
……
With the release of official information and Cromwell's firsthand on-site footage, the astonishing news spread like wildfire throughout the United States of New Eden the following evening, dominating headlines within just a few days.
Unlike last year's werewolf killer incident, this incident lacks the cross-cultural appeal to become a major international news story. However, within the United States of New Eden, it has nonetheless quickly captured everyone's attention.
First, there were Donil, Rhys, and the other parties involved. They had been complaining about Cromwell, the riddle-maker, who had gone upstairs with Miss Nameless but then said nothing after coming down.
However, after watching the released video, everyone realized that the situation at the time was so shocking that it would be difficult to explain clearly in just a few words without video evidence.
Soon after, Agasher's reporter, Ms. Eileen, and Castor, the middleman at the Floating Light Bar, also learned of the matter through the news.
Miss Eileen was shocked. It was the first time she had ever experienced Yvette's "disappearance." She thought that Miss Nameless had simply made up a lame excuse because she didn't want to talk to her anymore. After discovering that Yvette had disappeared, she was sad for a long time, wondering if she had done something wrong.
And now she finally understood that the disappearance of the nameless lady was all part of this plan.
After a year of painstaking planning, during which he could not have any communication with acquaintances or friends, was he perhaps trying to infiltrate the human traffickers?
That's incredible! That's absolutely incredible!
Castor's thoughts were similar to Eileen's, but unlike Eileen, who was purely happy for Yvette, he was a little worried. He felt that after this battle, Miss Nobody's reputation was already famous enough, so would she still need him as a middleman to help her get orders in the future?
Will he never even have the chance to speak to Miss Wuming again?
……
For several days afterward, with no other major news emerging, the story of the nameless woman single-handedly breaking through two human trafficker camps and rescuing 31 victims dominated the trending topics on various platforms.
Although it is still difficult to judge her level of strength as a mage, one thing is certain: she is definitely among the top tier.
After all, in the mercenary world, reputation is the only standard of strength, and it's directly linked to the efficiency of taking on jobs. Although her current mercenary points are a bit low, not even enough to break into the top 1 in the world rankings, it doesn't stop people in the industry from unanimously believing that her strength is at least in the top 1000, or even possibly in the top 500.
The only pity is that, due to Yvette's own request, neither Cromwell, the Customs Service, nor the police released any photos of the unnamed woman in this incident. This left many netizens who had heard that the unnamed woman was a beauty and wanted to see her face feeling very disappointed.
