Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

Although Wang Yi didn't know exactly how precious the Fire Phoenix Magic Crystal was, the fact that a high-level mage with the ability to disguise himself with flesh and blood was willing to go so far as to betray him and steal it meant that the price must be incredibly high.

Of course, it's also possible that this guy is simply stingy.

"This guy can change size at will. If we rush over now, won't we just end up with nothing?" Wang Yi asked.

It will take them about three or four hours to get to Zhuchuan City by helicopter.

Given such a long period of time, not to mention how to find this plastic surgery monster in the vast sea of ​​people, even whether he is still in Zhuchuan City is unknown.

Who would commit robbery and then not run away immediately? Are they an idiot?

In response to Wang Yi's question, Chen Guang calmly replied:

"First, this plastic surgery monster doesn't know that we've already targeted him. Because he used his high-level mage strength to kill all the guys he was dealing with, people in the black market who die from illegal transactions won't be reported to the police, right?"

Moreover, the black market chose a sufficiently "safe" underground location, untouched by any magical monitoring network, so I suspect he doesn't believe he'll be exposed and therefore isn't very vigilant.

"What about this field agent?" Wang Yi's expression changed slightly. The field agent had also been sacrificed?

Chen Guang was pleased with Wang Yi's reaction and then explained, "He's safe. The video wasn't filmed by him personally; it was a hidden camera he secretly installed at the transaction location."

Wang Yi thought to himself, "No wonder the resolution is so bad."

However, from this perspective, all the transactions on the black market were actually completed under the surveillance of the Night Watch.

If the black market in Zhuchuan City is like this, then it's probably similar in other cities.

The reason the Night Watch didn't take action to overthrow the black market might be because black markets are something that can never be completely eradicated.

The more something is forbidden, the more likely people are to take the risk.

If you blow up the latrine, mosquitoes and flies will scatter and fly away.

Since it's going to happen anyway, we might as well let the black market operate under the watchful eyes of the Night Watch, at least it will be controllable.

The Night Watch probably wouldn't bother with the trading of ordinary magic crystals; they might only intervene if the magic crystals were extremely precious.

And you might even catch a big fish, like this time, when they caught a high-level plastic surgery monster.

This reassured Wang Yi quite a bit. The magic crystals he sold through Huang Longxi were all very ordinary ones, not very valuable, just enough to exchange for some pocket money, and shouldn't attract the attention of the Night Watch Army.

"Secondly, through facial and body comparison, we found out that this plastic surgery monster was pretending to be a South Korean travel blogger who often posted explicit travel photos online and had a small following."

This time, "she" entered China through a normal tourist visa. This account had a record of connecting to the internet just half an hour ago, in Zhuchuan City. He may have other identities, but he hasn't abandoned this one yet, which suggests he's not overly cautious.

Wang Yi felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing Chen Guang's words. Indeed, you never know what kind of monsters are lurking beneath those glamorous photos of beautiful women on the internet.

"Third, Zhuchuan City is located in the central part of China and is not near the border. If the plastic surgery monster wanted to smuggle himself out of the country without a normal identity, it would be impossible. If he used another identity to run away from the country, it could only be a foreign identity."

He can't just kill someone in the city and then disguise himself, can he? His flesh disguise is a legendary-grade magic, and if he disguises himself again, he will inevitably be detected by the magic monitoring network.

Therefore, all foreign identities in Zhuchuan City are currently under surveillance, and any signs of leaving Zhuchuan City will be delayed with various legitimate reasons.

Besides, he couldn't possibly leave the Fire Phoenix Magic Crystal, which he had gone to great lengths to obtain, without taking it with him. Unless he secretly absorbed it somewhere, even if he swallowed it or tried to smuggle it out of the country through a back door, security could still detect it.

In addition to vehicle theft cases, all taxis leaving Zhuchuan City are also under close surveillance. Police are verifying the identities of private car owners on all major roads leading out of Zhuchuan City. Unless someone can fly away, it's impossible for them to leave silently.

"What if we can really fly out? We can use flight magic." Wang Yi himself also possessed the Azure Feather Wind Wings, so he naturally knew that if the flight altitude was high enough, people and surveillance on the ground would not be able to detect it at all.

Chen Guang smiled slightly and pointed to the sky: "Then you underestimate the recognition accuracy of military satellites now. Once in a key monitoring area, such a big person flying in the sky will be immediately detected by the satellite. Flesh and blood camouflage can only disguise people and animals of similar size. It is impossible for him to turn into a fly and fly away."

Of course, if he has enough willpower to disguise himself as a pig, cow, horse, or sheep about the size of a human and walk all the way out of Zhuchuan City without being discovered, then I'll consider him impressive. After all, these days, not even a live animal can leave Zhuchuan City.

Wang Yi was greatly shocked. Sure enough, this kind of thing still required the help of the government and the support of technology.

It can be said that Zhuchuan City has quietly woven a tight net, just waiting for this plastic surgery monster to show up and be caught.

"Fifth, since he came here for the precious magic crystals, let's add another bait for him. Since the black market has caused such a mess, and the transaction process has been double-crossed, it's very damaging to its reputation. So, it's reasonable for the black market organizers to release some precious magic crystals in order to stabilize the black market's reputation."

Chen Guang lightly tapped the table: "Three days later, not only will the two stolen Fire Phoenix Magic Crystals be put back up for auction, but there will also be an extra precious Space Magic Crystal. Such a grand event is something you don't see in the black market for years. Do you think this plastic surgery freak wants to participate?"

Wang Yi was shocked. Good heavens, this was clearly a sting operation by the Night Watch Army.

Of course, Wang Yi knew that the Night Watch Army was raiding the nest because he knew the details inside; the plastic surgery monster didn't know any of this.

See, this is one of the advantages of being in the government.

Chen Guang glanced at the time and felt that they had rested enough, so he led Wang Yi to the helipad, saying as they walked, "So we have three days. If we can't find this plastic surgery monster within three days, then we'll go to participate in this black market auction. I don't believe he won't show up."

"What if they don't even show up for the auction?" Wang Yi pressed.

"Then remove the surveillance level from Zhuchuan City and consider the mission a failure. He's so cowardly that he definitely wouldn't dare to cause any deaths. Unless we mobilize several psychic superhumans to turn Zhuchuan City upside down, it will be very difficult to find him."

At this point, Chen Guang shrugged: "He's not worthy of using so many extraordinary beings."
