Chapter 1770: Section 1771: Shuttle-shaped Flying Car

The disappearance of Si Man, within this Wizard World teetering on the edge of disorder, truly doesn’t count as a major event. Moreover, Angel and Si Man aren’t particularly close, so he had no reason, nor desire, to get involved.

However, since Helen seed so concerned about Si Man, relaying a ssage to the Enforcent Squad for her wouldn’t hurt.

Helen’s eyes lit up upon hearing Angel’s words.

In the eyes of the Enforcent Squad, Si Man’s disappearance was definitely not a big deal—after all, she wasn’t anyone important. Even if she was abducted right in Sky chanical City, it likely wouldn’t stir up much of a commotion, let alone nearby the city.

But if Angel were to speak on the matter, using his status as soone from the Research and Developnt Institute to notify the Enforcent Squad, they would undoubtedly take it seriously.

With the help of the Enforcent Squad, perhaps there would be news of Si Man!

Thinking of this, Helen eagerly nodded to Angel and proceeded to recount everything that happened that day in full detail.

Ti shifted back to half a month ago—

Just as Xiao Liu had said, that day Si Man unusually didn’t go to the Endless Corridor but instead expressed the desire to accompany Helen on a casual outing.

At the ti, their trip was genuinely nothing more than aimless wandering. After all, Sky chanical City was the first enormous Extraordinary City Helen had ever seen after stepping into the Wizard World. During the New Star Tournant, Helen barely had ti to explore, but now, with Si Man accompanying her, she naturally carried a sense of intense curiosity while exploring the city.

After a whirlwind tour of half the tropolis, Si Man seemingly concluded there wasn’t much of interest in the overwhelming tallic fortress-like structures and proposed visiting other cities in Yirong Country.

Helen readily agreed, but she hadn’t expected their outing to take a sudden turn.

Three hundred kiloters north of Sky chanical City, they encountered a strange group—a group that abruptly erged from a crack in the Void, traveling inside bizarre spindle-shaped vehicles.

At the ti, they deliberately avoided them, but unexpectedly, the spindle-shaped vehicle stopped right in front of them. The people inside disembarked and blocked their path.

This odd group appeared to converse briefly among themselves before finally fixing their gaze on Si Man and, without any explanation, abducting her.

“Did they say why they took Si Man?” Angel asked, puzzled.

Helen shook her head, “No.”

“Could they be Si Man’s enemies?” Xiao Liu asked.

Helen shook her head again, “No, Si Man said she didn’t know this group of people. Besides, the leader of this group was an Official Wizard—Si Man couldn’t possibly have crossed paths with soone at that level.”

Precisely because the leader was an Official Wizard, the oppressive aura he released overwheld Si Man, allowing her to be captured instantly, while Helen herself suffered severe injuries, fainting on the spot.

When Helen regained consciousness, the area was deserted. Forcing herself to endure the pain, she used the flight feather Si Man had given her to return to Sky chanical City.

After Helen finished her tale, her gaze still carried layers of complex emotions—anger, helplessness, and grief.

Having listened to the entire story, Angel couldn’t extract any aningful clues. However, abducting soone for no apparent reason did seem odd.

Angel mulled this over and voiced two of his pressing questions.

First: Who was that Official Wizard?

Regarding this question, Helen—since she hadn’t been in the Wizard World for long—wasn’t familiar with the appearances of many Wizards. However, through Helen’s description, Angel recreated the individual’s likeness using an Illusion Technique.

It was a stern-looking middle-aged man with a square face and a very prominent hooked nose.

After the illusion vividly depicted the person’s appearance, Angel’s gaze flickered with confusion. He didn’t recognize the man at all. Despite having recently supplented his knowledge extensively—though not to the point of knowing every Official Wizard—he was familiar with prominent figures.

But this man sparked no mories in Angel whatsoever.

Even Xiao Liu, who managed the White Dove Library, was at a loss. As a librarian, Xiao Liu’s daily work involved handling books. Her depth of knowledge might be less than Angel’s, but when it ca to recognizing Official Wizards by appearance, she far surpassed him.

Since even Xiao Liu didn’t know him, the individual’s identity remained shrouded in mystery.

Having hit a dead end regarding appearance, Angel posed a second question: What did the spindle-shaped vehicle look like?

While distinguishing appearances wasn’t Angel’s specialty, identifying alchemical tools was sothing he excelled at.

Once Helen described the spindle-shaped vehicle’s design, Angel seed to make a connection.

He quickly conjured an illusion of the vehicle’s image, and when Helen confird it was accurate, Angel found himself montarily stunned.

Though Angel had never seen the spindle-shaped flying vehicle before, its activation chanism was sothing he was familiar with.

This chanism had been docunted in alchemy books he had found in Nightmare Abyss City, though its application to a spindle-shaped vehicle involved improvents. Still, the essence of the chanism remained unchanged.

Angel was stunned because this particular chanism wasn’t prevalent in the Southern Domain. The key material used in this chanism—Bairen Water—was not produced anywhere in the Southern Domain or its nearby Pan-Dinsional Plane.

This material, along with the specific alchemical chanism, was commonly found in the Northern Territory Wizard World and the Origin World.

If that were the case, then this group wasn’t from the Southern Domain at all… but rather from the Outer Domain Wizard World?

While Angel was lost in thought, Xiao Liu was conversing with Helen: “If this group wasn’t an enemy of Si Man’s, could they have a grudge against Shaloo Ridge and targeted Si Man as revenge instead?”

Helen pondered for a mont but shook her head again, “If they had a grudge against Shaloo Ridge, why wouldn’t they attack instead? Besides, at the ti, we were both dressed in ordinary clothing without any Shaloo Ridge emblems on us.”

Xiao Liu: “I see… Then, what were they intending by abducting Si Man?”

Emblems? Xiao Liu and Helen’s discussion caught Angel’s attention. He thought for a mont and then asked, “Did they have any distinctive patterns or insignias on them?”

“Good point!” Xiao Liu’s eyes lit up. Although she didn’t know who the Official Wizard was, identifying their emblem might reveal their origin, allowing them to investigate the corresponding organization or family.

“Distinctive emblems?” Helen fell into deep thought again. However, since the incident happened half a month ago, while she rembered their faces, many other details had faded from her mory.

Just as Helen was struggling to recall, a cooling pulse suddenly flowed into her body, sending a refreshing sensation straight to her mind.

It felt as though cold water had been poured over her amid a scorching sumr day—her chaotic thoughts began to align.

Helen looked up and realized it was Angel’s fingertips glowing faintly with shimring light.

“A small illusion technique to assist you with recalling mories,” Angel explained softly.

Helen understood his intent without speaking further, seizing the mont of clarity to quietly reflect.

Scenes from her mories erged like a sequence of images. While only their general outlines and appearances remained distinct, much of the details were obscured. Yet, as the cooling sensation perated her mind, those previously shrouded areas bit by bit beca clear. Details she couldn’t rember earlier now ca to light.

Helen’s eyes suddenly snapped open—

“I rember!”

“Although the clothes they wore were varied, they all bore a similar emblem!”
