Mage Manual

Chapter 762: Trouble


"Don't panic, Felix is alone!"

"Just kill him!"

The voice of Van Dael's gang was full of shock and fear, and they no longer hesitated to attack with full force, gun bullets flew over with a bang. Felix could clearly hear the sound of the shield being hit, knowing that the gang would no longer care about the hostage.

Thus, she forcefully pushed the black-haired shield towards the gang and then drove multiple Technique Spirits, hastily using her unpracticed new Miracle—"Endless Poison Flow!"

A gust of black evil wind blew past, as if countless flies were hidden within, and Van Dael's gang was immediately corroded by evil, screaming and rolling miserably as they fled in panic. Felix wanted to chase after them, but suddenly gunshots exploded behind her, so she immediately hid in the seat beside her, picked up the Hand Cannon that fell to the ground and fired back, shouting, "Do you all want to die too?"

The gang members at the back of the carriage also saw the horrible scene inside the carriage, knowing that this operation had completely failed. They suppressed Felix with gunshots while retreating and quickly escaped to other carriages without a trace.

Whew.

Felix breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the corpses and flowing black blood all over the ground, feeling not only the pain in her stomach but also a bit nauseous. The worst part was the strange sweet aroma permeating the air, a bizarre stench generated from further reaction between 'Evil' and flesh. If Felix had other Poison Skill Technique Spirits, she could deploy an 'Evil Environment' using this stench, but even without doing anything, just inhaling this sweet aroma could make people irritable and decrease intelligence.

"Hmm?"

She suddenly saw that the black-haired male she had used as a shield was unexpectedly unaffected by the Evil and seemingly had just avoided the wind attack. Now he was lying on Van Dael's gang member's corpse, looking completely intact.

Felix felt some guilt in her heart, so she squatted down, tightly gripping the other's hand, and softly said, "I sincerely apologize for dragging you into this death incident, but you bear some responsibility for not wearing a bulletproof vest while riding the train. Regardless, I owe you a favor, and when I pray to The Gods of Four Pillars, I'll introduce you to them. Whether you can join the Four Pillars God Sect depends on your interview in Hell."

After speaking, Felix turned to look outside and found the train was already near Jiale City. She had no interest in lingering inside a train full of Evil stench, so she pushed open the window, unfolded Void Wings, and prepared to fly out and escape.

But at that moment, a hand pressed on her shoulder from behind.

"Choose another form of repayment. I'm already quite familiar with The Gods of Four Pillars and don't need your introduction."

Felix's heart shook violently. As she turned around and blew, a gust of black evil wind instantly swept behind her!

Miracle: Endless Poison Flow!

However, the evil wind parted in a circular arc in the air, and the black-haired male stood calmly behind her, seemingly surrounded by an invisible circular barrier, perfectly blocking the flow of toxic black color.

Holy Sanctuary Mage!

Felix's heart sank into an icy abyss, and a lazy voice sounded beside her: "Your best choice now is either to pretend to be poisoned dead or to actually die from poisoning."

The blonde handsome guy leaned on the back of a chair, his right hand supporting his cheek, sporting an amused expression, "If I were you, I would attempt the latter—after all, your Poison Skill faction realm is quite high."

Meanwhile, another dark-skinned curly-haired person had unknowingly approached the Van Dael gang's corpse, examining the bodies and saying, "Hmm, these bodies are severely damaged, not many usable parts... Tsk-tsk-tsk, the liquid has seeped into the carpet; I'll need to prepare a solution to clean it up."

"Can't you apply some of your corpse cleanup obsession to your daily life? Like perhaps washing your hair a bit more frequently?" The blonde handsome guy complained, looking at the black-haired male, "Ash, are you sure you want to choose this person?"

"I'm sure," Ash said, "Someone who just killed, bears moral stains, and is a local university student—there's no better guide than Felix."

"Although I don't know what you're coveting, the troubles attached to me are far more serious than you imagine," Felix tried to stay calm, saying, "If you simply want money, I can give you all my savings. If you have other requests, feel free to mention them—I'm the second heir of the Vosloda Family, and I'll fulfill whatever I can."

"Yes, Mr. Ash, I'm really sorry for using you as a shield and attacking you earlier, and I'm willing to pay any price to correct my mistake. But if you continue to approach me, it will only bring severe trouble upon yourself—something not even a Holy Sanctuary Mage can withstand."

"You don't want to stir up big trouble, do you?"

Appealing sentimentally, reasoning logically, tempting with benefits, threatening with might, Felix couldn't help but mentally applaud herself for this persuasive speech. In the world of mages, there's more than just fighting; there's human interaction. Even when facing a Holy Sanctuary Mage, she can still use verbal prowess to repel the opponent.

Ash thought for a moment, "You're right. I really shouldn't bring trouble upon myself."

Just when Felix thought Ash was going to compromise, she saw him bending down to activate the LCD Light Screen behind the chair. Coincidentally, the default channel of the LCD screen was the news channel.

"...The invaders are still at large, operating around the Jiale City area. If any citizens spot them, please immediately inform the police department. All three of these extremely vicious invaders are Holy Sanctuary Mages, specializing in Sword Technique Faction, Spirit Faction, and Flame Faction respectively, with a bounty reward of 10,000 Gold Coins per invader. Because the targets are exceptionally dangerous, there's no need to capture them alive, kill on sight..."

"Any citizens who harbor the invaders will face imprisonment ranging from three to ten years, and severe cases will be treated as treason, punishable by death or life imprisonment... Note that citizens who cover for the invaders will face immediate execution by law enforcement forces, depending on the situation..."

Three wanted banners appeared on the Light Screen. Although the photos were somewhat blurry, it was still visible that these three invaders were respectively the black-haired mask-wearer, the blonde handsome guy, and the dark-skinned curly-haired person.

Ash looked at Felix, while Felix stared at the LCD Light Screen, her heart dead ash.

"In terms of whose trouble is bigger, I think it's clear we won," Ash shrugged, "Or do you think your problems are more severe than being wanted and hunted across the entire Dazzling Star?"

Felix raised her head, still trying to make one last effort: "Aren't you afraid I'll report you? All I did was kill someone!"

"Oh, I'm not worried about that at all." Ash patted Felix's shoulders, "I'm very familiar with you, just as familiar as I am with myself... Let me confirm, you're a second-year student at Sword Flower University named Felix Vosloda, right?"

Felix nodded. These were public information; she had no reason to deny... Wait!

Weren't these three people just invading Dazzling Star yesterday? The Van Dael gang had only mentioned its own name; how did they know about her school?

"That's right. I'm very confident you won't report us," Ash said, "After all, I've never seen a believer of Four Pillars God Sect willing to cooperate with the police."

Felix's pupils contracted suddenly, instinctively covering her left hand with her glove.

"What exactly do you want?" Her voice trembled slightly.

"I've heard," Ash said, "Felix, your house is quite large."
