Vanessa immediately bowed to the man.
"Captain Bonard, it's so late. Are you still on duty?"
Luke only glanced at the person who came and continued to stand at the counter, waiting for the bill.
The empire's secret agent, Bonard, had been staring at Luke since he came in.
A female elf with short emerald hair, very beautiful, two sabers, and a pair of black lace long-sleeved gloves on her right arm...
It was the same as the information he had received. It was the same as the characteristics of the dangerous killer.
"Did this elf lady buy all these things?" Bonard asked Vanessa."
"Yes, Captain Bonard," Vanessa replied. "These things were all bought by this elf lady. After settling this bill, I can close and rest."
"Miss, may I know why you bought so many mysterious items?" Bonard asked Luke. "I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Bonard, the captain of the Second Special Task Force of the Imperial Secret Intelligence Bureau's Wild Waves City's Central Branch."
Luke glanced at Bonard.
"Good evening, Captain Bonard. I bought these things to study secret techniques. If you're worried, you can check them."
Vanessa was afraid that the deal would not be closed, so she immediately said, "Captain Bonard, all the mysterious items sold by our Secret Whisperer's Mysterious House are legal items.
"Mrs. Mihill could guarantee this."
"Of course, I trust Councilwoman Mihill." Bonard continued to speak to Luke, "Miss Elf, you've bought so many things. My people and I can send you home. It's very late outside. It's dangerous for a beautiful elf like you to walk alone."
"I can protect myself." Luke took out the silver blade of the Blade Brotherhood and spun it around his fingertip before putting it back. Then, he said to Vanessa, "How much?"
Vanessa looked at the number she had calculated and replied, "A total of 1,473,200 imperial marks. You only need to pay 1,450,000 imperial marks."
Luke took out a bag containing money from his spatial backpack and took out some gold certificates, silver certificates, and imperial marks for Vanessa.
Then, he put the boxes containing the mysterious items into his spatial backpack one by one.
The silver blade of the Blade Brotherhood, and spatial storage magic.
Bonard bowed respectfully to Luke. "I didn't expect you to be a member of the Blade Brotherhood. May I have the honor of knowing your name?"
Luke, who had packed everything, replied, "I'm not a member of the Blade Brotherhood. This dagger was given to me by a friend who said it could help me solve some unnecessary problems.
"As for my name...
"It's Clear Sky. The clear sky.
"If there's nothing else, goodbye."
When he heard the name Clear Sky, Bonard subconsciously touched the knife hanging on his waist.
However, he still resisted the urge to pull it out.
Seeing the elf leave, he immediately chased after her.
"Miss Clear Sky, you killed Bull Horned Demon Giant Tree of the Wild Axe Party in the Cape District, right?"
When Luke walked out of the Secret Whisperer's Mysterious House, he saw a group of Imperial secret agents surrounding the door.
They all drew their swords and looked at Luke warily.
Bonard chased after him.
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
Luke replied, "I killed him."
"You killed the dozen people in the storage area of Windbreak Alley?"
"That was also me," Luke admitted straightforwardly. She placed her right hand on the hilt of the knife behind her waist. "Do you have any other questions? Captain Bonard!"
The surrounding temperature dropped rapidly.
Raindrops fell from the sky and turned into ice particles. They fell on the stone road with a clattering sound.
Thirty meters away, the road was dry without any ice or raindrops.
The scene was unusually quiet.
Not far away, a high-end carriage was driving over. When the coachman saw this scene, he immediately pulled the reins to stop the carriage. Then, he quickly turned around and whipped the carriage to escape.
The temperature continued to drop.
Some of the secret agents couldn't hold on any longer, and their bodies began to tremble because of the cold.
This phenomenon reminded Bonard of the murder scene in Windbreak Alley.
The people who were killed were all frozen into ice sculptures.
They faced the enemy head-on, but they did not resist when they died.
In the headquarters of the Wild Axe Party, she had killed more than a hundred people in a few minutes, including several core members of the party who had experienced hundreds of battles.
Calculating the time, Bull Horned Demon Giant Tree lasted less than a minute before he was beheaded.
Bonard could not understand why this elf, who did not look very powerful, had such a strong killing power.
Was he her opponent?
Moreover, she had the background of those old nobles.
Bonard saw that his eyelashes were frosting.
"Miss Clear Sky, you've misunderstood. We have no intention of becoming your enemy." In the end, Bonard didn't dare to try to capture the elf. He waved his hand to get his subordinates to retreat from the frost-covered area and said, "What happened in Windbreak Alley and the Wild Axe Party is not under the control of the Secret Intelligence Bureau, and the Cape District is not under our jurisdiction.
"Moreover, you're a friend of a member of the Blade Brotherhood."
"Can I go now?" Luke asked.
"Sure, welcome to the central urban area of Wild Waves City. I wish you a pleasant night..."
"Goodbye!"
Luke jumped onto the roof and quickly disappeared into the night.
She did not want to get entangled with these imperial secret agents. If they fought, Clear Sky's level would definitely have to be raised. If the battery of her phone was consumed too much, it would affect what was going to happen later.
After Luke left, the frozen phenomenon outside the Secret Whisperer's Mysterious House disappeared.
Bonard turned around and returned to the shop. He found Vanessa, who was shivering from the cold behind the counter, and asked, "What did that elf buy?"
Vanessa handed over a piece of paper. "This list contains the mysterious items that the elf lady bought. Captain Bonard, what happened just now? Why did it suddenly become so cold?"
"It's nothing. You should close the shop early and rest..." Bonard took Luke's shopping list and found something on it. "Some of these items seem to be related to the heart that the Alchemist Association lost.
"Is it the work of the Blade Brotherhood?"
...
Luke, who had bought all the props and materials he needed, ran between houses and buildings, leaving the city and coming to the beach.
He shall summon the Red Dragon Nilcro now.
Under the moonlight, the sea breeze brought the waves to the beach over and over again. Luke drew a hexagram magic array on the beach according to the summoning guide on his phone.
Then, he took out the purchased sulfur and sprinkled it evenly into the magic array's circuit.
He lit up the storm lantern and placed it on the first star of the magic array, then placed the five crystals on the other five stars.
He chanted the incantation.
Five rays of light shot out from the storm lantern and entered the five crystals. The crystals immediately emitted a gentle glow.
Luke walked to the middle of the magic array and took out the 120cm x 120cm burr clover drawing paper and laid it on it. Under the spell, the soft paper became hard like a stone slab.
