Chapter 48 Attack
"Hahaha, partner, welcome back!"
"Oh, the head nurse is here too!"
Opikley Opera House, entrance to Mello Petersburg.
Even late at night, Navia was still carrying a golden parasol, her rose-gold dress standing out conspicuously on the empty street.
Mu Feng led Siegwen out of the slowly stopping elevator. As soon as they stepped out of the revolving door, they immediately noticed the eye-catching Navia and her two companions.
"Hello, Navia."
"And Miles and Silver, hello there too."
Feeling Navia's enthusiasm, Mu Feng smiled and greeted Navia and her group simply.
"Long time no see, Miss Navia, and Mr. Miles and Mr. Silver."
"You all look very healthy."
Higewen waved back warmly, smiling gently, expressing her greeting in the unique way of a young nurse.
"Then let's..."
Navia was about to speak when she was interrupted by a series of loud mechanical noises.
From the direction of Lu Jingquan, rows of fully armed clockwork machines marched in unison, carrying heavy weapons, and rushed rapidly toward the group.
"careful!"
Mu Feng quickly pushed Navia away, then picked up Siegwen beside him and swiftly retreated to the side.
"boom!"
A hail of bullets swept in from all directions, blasting the spot where the group had been standing into a charred mess.
"Miss!"
Myles and Silver drew their weapons and stood guard around Navia, watching the approaching guards warily.
Considering that the authority over water cannot be exposed at will, Mu Feng took out a one-handed sword forged from the Beaumont workshop from the system space and protected the relatively weak Siegwen behind him.
The battle is about to break out!
"Rose fireworks!"
As Navia raised her parasol first, a cannonball formed from the power of the Geo element exploded instantly, blasting a large number of clockwork mechanisms into pieces.
Myles and Silver, the two bodyguards, gripped their weapons and swept away any stragglers around them, while also shielding Navia from both open and covert attacks.
Water elemental force adhered to the blade, and Mu Feng relied on his swift speed to move like a ghost through the clumsy clockwork mechanism, while the water blade precisely hit the core of the mechanism.
"Calm down!"
Siegfried raised her bubble gun, providing ample healing to everyone fighting.
However, the mastermind behind this ambush seemed well-prepared, with a continuous stream of clockwork mechanisms surging forth like a tide, causing the group, whose elemental power was rapidly depleting, to gradually feel somewhat powerless.
Damn!
Mu Feng cleaved through the core of a clockwork mechanism with his water blade, cursing inwardly.
There is no such thing as a peaceful and tranquil life; it's just that someone is unjustly taking the blame for you.
You agree, right, Yingmei?
Follow the traveler's path, and leave the traveler with nowhere to go.
A surge of powerful water elemental energy appeared in Mu Feng's hand as he prepared to forcefully break the deadlock, risking the exposure of his authority.
"See through evil, and vanquish its shadows!"
However, just as Mu Feng was about to make his move, a swift bolt of lightning flashed past, cleanly and decisively cleaving through the clockwork mechanism's encirclement and suppression.
Sharp lightning bolts erupted from the one-handed sword and the gun barrel, shattering the remaining clockwork mechanisms in the arena into scattered parts as easily as slicing melons and vegetables.
Clarinde, the agent of the Fontaine duel.
Mu Feng silently dispelled the water element in his hand and calmly began his "slacking off" mode.
Just Wait
Under Clorind's forceful clearing, the remaining clockwork mechanisms seemed to realize that things were hopeless and began to slowly retreat.
Clarind squatted down with a serious expression and carefully examined the broken spring mechanism around her.
Standing to the side, Mu slowly shifted his gaze, unable to help but reveal an expression of sympathy and regret.
Alas, some buttons are born to bear an unbearable weight in their lives.
"Brother Mufeng~"
"It's very impolite to stare at a lady like that."
Hisewen's soft little hand touched Mu Feng's waist, and she spoke in a strangely quiet tone.
Mu Feng's body stiffened instantly, then he chuckled awkwardly and looked away, gently pulling the pouting nurse into his arms.
Ah, this clockwork mechanism is huge and so white.
After inspecting the scattered parts, Clarind turned around with a serious expression and meticulously relayed the results of her report to everyone.
"The mechanisms here don't have serial numbers, so they were obviously obtained through illegal channels..."
"Clolind".
Navia stood up, her expression completely devoid of her usual affability and enthusiasm.
"Thanks to your help, I should thank you."
"But before that, can you explain why you're here?"
Navia stared intently at Clorind, who had appeared at the crucial moment, her tone carrying a hint of aggressive hostility.
Claurind crossed her arms and replied succinctly, "Protect your safety; that was Mr. Carles' last wish."
Please do not mention my father.
Navia interrupted Clorind once again, her eyes filled with resistance and hostility.
The situation immediately became awkward.
"However, thank you for your help today."
Navia took a deep breath, then looked firmly into Clarin's eyes again, and replied in a strong and resolute tone:
"But no matter who it is, I will find out the truth."
"I think this is my father's 'last wish'."
Leaving behind her last words, Navia took the lead and walked away into the distance.
Behind her, Miles and Silver remained silent as they quickly followed her.
Mu Feng and Siegwen were about to leave together when they were stopped by Clarinde.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Mu Feng."
"And the head nurse, it's been a long time."
Watching Navia leave in a bad mood, Clarin sighed helplessly, then extended her gloved hand to politely greet Mu Feng.
Hello, Clarinde.
"Hello, Miss Clorinde."
Mu Feng shook hands with Klorinde and praised her with a smile, "I have long heard of the reputation of the Fontaine Duel Agent. Miss Klorinde's strength is indeed outstanding."
"Excessive praise."
Klorind remained composed, but then replied with a serious expression, "I can sense that Mr. Mu Feng is also a powerful figure."
This is not flattery; as the strongest dueling agent in the Fontaine Law Court, Clarind's strength is beyond doubt.
However, she could sense a faint threat emanating from the boy in front of her, which was enough to show that the boy was not as simple as he seemed.
"Lord Navelette asked me to convey a message to you that your arrangements are complete."
"It's time to prepare to close the net."
A sharp glint of lightning flashed in Clorinde's deep purple eyes.
