Funinna, please let me steal your heart!

"Some people mistakenly believe that all a phantom thief can do is steal and run away, but that's because the previous phantom thief was too weak and had no class. I'm different; I just don't want to fight."

Luna kicked away the incapacitated enemy, slowly loaded a new bullet, and aimed her gun at Guradar, who was now alone.

"You're the last one, so bring out your tricks if you have any."

Gu Leida said in a low voice, "You said it yourself!"

He took out a button and pressed it without hesitation.

"Do you think we only have manpower? You're sorely mistaken. Think about it carefully. How could an industry as profitable as ours not be equipped with some kind of mechanical mechanism?"

"That's the best thing about Fontainebleau. These tin cans will carry out any order, no matter what it is."

"Kill this guy!"

..........

.......

...

But nobody came!

Gu Leida paused for a moment, then pressed the button again: "Move it, wind-up mechanism, why isn't it moving!"

"Maybe it's because it's time for them to get off work?" Luna's smile remained unchanged.

"—It was you! You did it!"

Luna smiled without saying a word and threw the gears off the clockwork mechanism.

The gears rolled, crashing into Gu Leida's toes before he fell.

Gu Leida's face turned pale. If even the clockwork mechanism was gone, how could he possibly defeat this masked demon?

Luna raised her chin slightly: "But I've left you one too, that illegally modified clockwork mechanism, it seems to be one of your proud creations, doesn't it?"

The heavy footsteps drew closer, and Gu Leida turned around, a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

The clockwork mechanism that appeared before us was clearly not a standard configuration; it had a heavy frame and armor, and its overall size far exceeded that of any other clockwork mechanism.

Without a doubt, this is more threatening.

Gu Leida laughed loudly: "Hahaha, you actually kept the most terrifying and powerful model. I really don't know if you've lost your mind and are too arrogant, or if you're just thinking about getting yourself killed!"

He rushed to the clockwork mechanism, opened the armor in front of it, and hid inside.

The armor plates snapped shut, the spring wound up, and the machine emitted a series of stiff, mechanical clicks before aiming its arm's launcher at Luna.

"How about it? The materials used in this mechanism are far superior to the junk the guards are equipped with! As long as I'm still sitting in here, you can't catch me... What are you doing?"

Luna held the pocket watch, watching the second hand move.

"1 seconds, 2 seconds, 3 seconds..."

Guda shouted, "Don't ignore me!"

Countless projectiles poured out from the launcher of the clockwork mechanism.

Despite its poor trajectory and accuracy, it boasts a high rate of fire and a large magazine capacity. Even experienced adventurers will struggle against this weapon.

However, a major drawback of this heavily armored clockwork mechanism is that it is very slow to turn.

Luna leaped up, flipped gracefully, and a flash of cold light appeared in her hand, transforming into ten streaks of light that pierced the joints of the clockwork mechanism.

"Throwing knife!?" Gu Leida sensed something was wrong.

As expected, the clockwork mechanism became extremely stiff, always half a beat too slow when trying to aim at Luna, and this brief moment was its fatal weakness.

boom!

The bullet mercilessly destroyed the transmission mechanism of the clockwork mechanism, causing it to stop operating for a moment.

Gu Leida saw Luna take a step forward, cleave open the armor of the key part with a sword, and then reach out and grab the core component.

"Wait, no..."

Pull hard!

The clockwork mechanism seemed to let out a mournful cry, with dry, grinding sounds as its parts rubbed together, and it trembled all over.

It was no longer able to move, and had become a fish meat to be slaughtered at will.

"7 seconds."

The sword shimmered with a watery light as Luna danced with ethereal, dreamlike steps, unleashing the blade.

The swordplay was elegant, yet every strike concealed a deadly intent.

Despite being an ordinary one-handed sword, it could cut through iron like mud. With each strike, she dismantled the clockwork mechanism, cleaved through the armor plates, and severed the transmission structure.

"12 seconds."

Then lift your foot and kick it high into the air.

The gathered wind elements transformed into a powerful impact, and with just one kick, Luna sent the clockwork mechanism flying into the air.

Gu Leida had never felt so close to the sky.

In a daze, a bird made of water flew across the sky.

The waterbirds transformed into human figures.

Luna twisted her body and spun out with her foot.

Bang! The kick, imbued with the power of the wind element, mercilessly knocked the clockwork mechanism down, creating a dull thud and spiderweb-like cracks.

The clockwork mechanism could no longer move, revealing the ancient radar hidden inside, its face blank.

Luna landed lightly and took out her pocket watch.

“15 seconds. Lasted longer than I expected, really durable, worthy of praise.” She patted Gu Leida’s face with the gun and smiled.

What kind of phantom thief is this?

He's clearly a demon in a mask!

"Then... go to sleep."

Luna holstered her pistol, kicked Gureda unconscious, and tossed him outside the clockwork mechanism. She searched his body and found a notebook.

The names of everyone who bought Les were written on it.

“Mary Bestina,” “Judith”…and many other unfamiliar names, with annotations written next to each name.

*Sent*

*Debts to be repaid*

And so on.

The industrial chain involved by Les is undoubtedly huge, and it is easy to understand what these annotations mean without much thought.

After coming into contact with Les, countless families vanished without a trace.

Where did they go after disappearing from the face of the earth? The answer is obvious: without money, they could only sell their own flesh and blood.

Luna took the crimson gem from Gureda's body, held it up to the bright moon.

"The fruits born of sin always possess an incredible magic, don't you think so, Miss Chavory?"

The sound of hurried footsteps approached, and a large number of special patrol team members and security team members surrounded them.

Xia Wore looked around.

A person lying on the ground groaning in pain, scattered Les, still burning cargo... and a clockwork mechanism that had been dismantled beyond recognition and was a pitiful sight.

"...You even steal from criminals?"

20: You're more beautiful than a rose!

He's more of a robber than a phantom thief.

I've never seen a phantom thief who makes such a mess of the scene.

Moreover, the stolen item was a treasure belonging to another criminal. Is this what they call double-crossing?

Xia Worei could not possibly be mistaken; the liquid in these bottles was the "miracle potion" that had once swept through Baisong Town.

Later, its hallucinogenic and addictive properties became known to Carles Casapa, the former president of the Rose Thorn Society, and Les was completely banned.

After that, the "Injustice of Carles" case came into being.

It's hard to say that these two things are unrelated.

But the case has already been closed... Xia Wore turned her gaze back to the thief, who was completely at ease surrounded by gun barrels.

Did she deliberately cause the explosion? To attract the attention of the special patrol team?

Luna put away the gem and tried to move her feet.

"Don't move!" shouted a member of the special patrol team.

She wasn't surprised, but still said, "Miss Chavore, don't you think we should deal with the filth here more than I should?"

"Dirty stuff?"

"Those bottles and jars."

Xia Wore said, "I know, I'm just surprised you hate them."

"I've said it before, I like beautiful things."

Luna ignored the gun pointed at her, spun around, and said in a clear voice, "True beauty is something that brings joy and happiness to those who see it."

"Even if you take your eyes off them, the feelings they leave behind will remain in your heart, and every time you think of them, you can't help but marvel at their exquisite craftsmanship."

"Doesn't Less count?" Xia Wore asked.

"No, if I had to say something..."

Luna smiled playfully: "Miss Xia Wore is more in line with the criteria for a treasure."
