"not yet."
The middle-aged man's voice is calm,
"Ms. Hebrew's magic power is powerful. Moreover, we don't know how she will deal with her former colleagues. If we contact her rashly, it is likely to cause casualties. From what I know about her, that person should not stay. Hand."
"So I am preparing as many people as possible. They are all wizards who are good at long-distance observation and surveillance."
Hyde nodded. Atwood was an executor of the same era as Howard Yousef, and he was quite reliable at such a critical time. That's why he dared to let Atwood be in charge of a considerable area.
In the current situation in the ordinary world, the atmosphere between countries belonging to different camps is tense.The executors can no longer receive any facilities in the Kingdom of Prussia in an official capacity, which has caused great trouble for the operation.
Only wizards like Atwood can cope with difficult problems. For executors, simple magic strength and actual combat ability sometimes do not determine everything.The existence of experiencers is more valuable in difficult times.
"Your response was correct, and you deserve to be an experienced executor."
The middle-aged man continued,
"If you are only aware of her existence, I think the best way should be to confirm the target's location, and at the same time, you or Your Excellency Fred will make contact."
"But the situation is different now. There are some problems with the source of the information we got... Yesterday afternoon, our local outsiders noticed that the frequency of dark wizards' underground activities has been unusually high recently."
"We used several special intelligence personnel to finally pry out this news from a dark wizard."
Hyde quickly understood what the other party meant.
"You mean that the Albion Brotherhood has already taken action, and they are also trying to contact Michelle... This will be a bit troublesome."
If possible, it is indeed, as Atwood said, focusing on surveillance and keeping it safe as long as it can ensure safety.
After all, the latter has been hiding his identity and living in a fairly remote town after leaving Kraft, at least in the short term, it will not have any impact on the current situation.
But now that the Albion Brotherhood has taken action, it cannot let it go.Assuming Michelle really becomes their partner, things will become quite troublesome.
"It may be a bit late... let the local personnel take action, and those dark wizards cannot be allowed to contact the former acting executive officer."
Hyde took his coat off the back of the chair,
"I'll go there myself."

Baier is a town on the outskirts of Riga. The population of this town is only 400 people. It is really just an ordinary small place.
In such a small town, it is definitely a rare thing to see many strange customers in an outdoor bar.
As Bayer's signboard, the open-air bar is located at the entrance of the town, and anyone who enters or exits Bayer will pass in this direction.
This rather eye-catching group of outsiders has been here since yesterday afternoon.
During this period, Bayer's only two police officers had appeared on the nearby streets to observe these men. The older police officer was convinced that these strangers probably wanted to "do something" in this place. Big ticket."
Thinking that he could still encounter such a good thing before retiring, the old policeman, whose energy had already declined, became more energetic.It's just that he didn't quite understand what could attract such a large group of criminals in such a small town.
Bayer's specialty is dark beer, which depends on the craftsmanship of the locals, and its taste is well-known in the surrounding cities.But apart from these, there is really nothing valuable in the town, and even if it is dismantled and emptied, it won't exchange much Thaler.
Judging from the lavishness of these outsiders, there is really nothing worth risking here.
Finally this morning, the police officer, who thought that nothing serious would happen, returned to his residence and decided to give himself a two-day holiday.
Near the bar by the door of the storage room, one of the outlanders with a ferocious face was chatting with the bar owner.
The latter was originally quite wary of these outsiders, but after collecting several large tips and moving out boxes of beer and bacon, his expression softened.Even the foreigner's ferocious face became amiable in his eyes.
"There are a lot of people coming in and out of the city."
Hearing that this was just a casual topic, the bar owner sighed.
"I heard that there is going to be a war. Bread, vegetables and bacon are becoming more expensive. After all, Bayer is only a small town, and our food reserves are not very large. Many people take advantage of this time to go to the port of Riga to stock up on goods."
"This year's weather is not good. Judging from this, the production of dark beer this year will also decrease a lot. It will be difficult to drink like this in the second half of the year."
Having said that, the boss has really made a lot of money in the past two days.When these wealthy guests leave, he plans to hire someone to go to Riga to bring back a few carts of grain.
"So they are all townspeople, and you are familiar with these people?"
"Of course, I've been on the street in Bayer for years. Literally, man, I know almost everyone in town. Of course it's not a big deal. … .”
The boss poured himself more than half a glass of wine. Based on his experience, at this time, the other party would probably want to ask him about someone.And the next topic was not what he expected.
"I saw a young lady this morning."
The man probably made gestures,
"Looks about 20 with hood and scarf, blond hair. Do you remember that?"
The boss seemed to understand something suddenly, and half opened his mouth in a sudden realization.
"Oh, you're talking about Miss Eve, right?
"She seems to be a foreigner, and it has been less than two months since she moved into Bayer. Miss Eve seems to be a very devout believer. She goes to the small church on the cross street to pray on time at two o'clock every afternoon...see , it will be two o’clock in about half an hour.”
"To be honest, although this kind of woman has a pretty face, she is not a good marriage partner, and her beliefs can't be eaten...I have never liked those neurotic guys. Why can't you drink on Sundays? It's a bad joke."
The other party didn't seem to be very interested in his chatter. After throwing a silver coin on the bar, he sat back in his original position.
The bar owner was bored but in a good mood. After all, compared to boring things like God, at least the money was real.
Chapter 22 Meeting
In the woodland five miles away from the town, the 24-pound heavy alchemy cannon "Destroyer" was lined up, and their firepower was enough to reduce anything within range to ashes in an instant.
The doll lady is adjusting one of the doors.
Its gun barrel is obviously larger than the surrounding "Destroyers". The silver gun barrel presents an elegant streamlined shape, and the exposed gears and complex magic patterns are plated with a layer of gold.
Several mechanical arm-like metal brackets support the huge gun body, and there is an eyeball-sized crystal embedded in it near the loading port.
The conical shells loaded from the side have reached an astonishing 55 pounds, and the weight of this improved version of the Destroyer is more than ten tons.
Even with the help of the Levitation spell, it is not easy to move this thing quickly on the battlefield. It is designed as a fixed firepower point, and its range and accuracy make it easy to move without getting too close to the battlefield. can make a difference.
"Miss Shadow...you don't plan to order the bombing of the town, do you? I won't accept such an order!"
The wizard who was the operator looked at the shadow of excitement in his eyes, and his face was covered with cold sweat.
After the birth of these war machines, Kraft taught a weird course called "Use of Large Alchemy Machines" in his senior year.
The school even temporarily recruited some talents who had experience in using heavy weapons in the ordinary world, and conducted training and teaching under the theoretical guidance of Professor Roger.
The "Use of Large Alchemy Machinery" course is only open to adult students or executors in sixth grade and above. In a short period of time, a group of wizards who can use "Reaper", "Destroyer" and drive alchemy locomotives have been trained.
Shadow stopped fiddling with the round, rotating crystal on the console, and his expression became a little impatient.
"Think about it a little bit, how could I fire and bomb Bayer?"
"Not to mention that there are hundreds of civilians living there, the purpose of our visit this time is to try our best to win the goodwill of Michelle Hebrew, or to avoid the occurrence of an alliance between her and the Albion Brotherhood— — still don't understand?"
Seeing the other party's bewildered look, Miss Doll clicked her tongue indecently.
"If I were Michele, even if I didn't intend to cooperate with the Albion Brotherhood, I would have to do so after being bombed."
"Then why did you put the main gun in this place?"
The wizard became more and more confused, and he didn't know when the topic changed from her bravely dissuading this unkind puppet to her teaching herself the disadvantages of shooting here.
If it weren't for the fear of this boss who likes to use firepower to solve all problems, he would not have opened his mouth from the beginning.
"Of course it must be set in this place. If the matter over there is over. Michelle decides to stay here as a village girl or return to Kraft. Do you want me to let these dozens of people who are usually hidden in the sewers and gutters The dark wizard in the house hides again?"
"This is the return gift for the black wizards, and even the train tickets are saved for them!"
Shadow added cheerfully, the glass eyeballs gleaming dangerously.

After getting information from the bar owner, the dark wizards left the street and headed toward the small church at the intersection along the alley or by other means.
These people hid in the corners of the building or temporarily commandeered nearby houses, overlooking the direction of the chapel from a high place.
It was really just a small house, even smaller than the surrounding townhouses or shop fronts, it only had the first floor on the ground plus a pointed attic.
But the dark wizards did not dare to act rashly. There was precedent, and their colleagues who had come into contact with the girl in their usual style of doing things did not end well.
Some of them suffered severe injuries and lost consciousness, and have not woken up until today; some survived and returned to the Brotherhood stronghold but turned into lunatics;
It was only then that they understood what it meant to have a name at the top of the wanted list by the Wizards Alliance and the Enforcer.
Everyone was staring in the direction of the intersection with all their concentration, waiting quietly.
When the plainly dressed woman appeared on the west side of the church, all the wizards held their breath subconsciously.
Although this young woman looked like any other townsman on the street, the dark wizard, who had always boasted a keen sense of smell, could not smell any magic from her.But they would never admit that they were wrong after carefully looking at the portrait of the target, and the intuition of the wizard also made them feel that the atmosphere would become depressing at some point.
"Is it her?"
Judith swallowed a mouthful of saliva and lowered his voice.
His current location is in a house opposite the church. The owner here has been affected by magic and entered a deep sleep.
Judit originally thought that even if he could survive, he would be severely punished.But the final result was just being included in this mission.
The two wizards behind him looked at each other, and both saw the affirmative answer in their own eyes.
"Then follow the plan."
This time, the newly promoted apostle Laban and Your Excellency the Holy Maiden participated in the operation... Even if the opponent is really strong, it is not impossible to deal with it.
Judith didn't dare to neglect this task any more, he knew very well that this was probably his last chance, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to look out the window.
But just because of a little gap in thinking about the problem, the target has disappeared in his eyes!
This--
When the middle-aged man panicked, he wanted to issue an alarm through the special silver coins in his pocket.But at this moment, he had already noticed the source of the abnormality.
It is not because of the disappearance of the target itself or the high-speed movement that led to the current result, but because I no longer know where I am.
The dilapidated houses had been covered with vines at some point, and all the figures on the street had disappeared, and there was only a gravel path, untended prairie and flowers under the window.
Time seems to have passed a hundred years in an instant.
Everything in front of him has changed, Judith wiped his eyes hard, and couldn't believe it was still the street he saw a second ago.
