Fei Xin nodded worriedly and continued to share the Moonlight Butterfly's senses to monitor the traffickers.

This is the difference between Fei Xin and Adele. If Adele gets the explanation, she will continue to sleep with Noita in her arms with peace of mind, but Fei Xin will worry whether Noita is holding on.

This is the difference caused by the different appearances Noita showed in front of them.

Adele would trust Noita wholeheartedly, even if Noita called a horse a zebra, Adele would probably believe it, because Noita always played the role of an omnipotent person in her eyes; as for Fei Xin, because Noita was stabbed by the black knife assassin but still posed, Fei Xin had the impression that this person just liked to hold on.

uh-huh.

This way, even if we meet one day, they won’t be able to connect their friends with me.

While Noita's little calculations were going on, Fei Xin made a new discovery.

She had been staking out the West City District for the past two days, searching for suspicious persons and vehicles day and night. However, perhaps because things had been so tense recently, she hadn't found the horse-drawn carriage that was rumored to deliver sacks to the workshop at night, nor had she encountered any of the delivery drivers that Noita had recorded with the crystal.

Instead, they discovered a roving human trafficking gang.

Now Fei Xin is observing closely, preparing to track them down to their base and catch them all in one fell swoop.

The moonlight butterfly fluttered, locking onto the kidnapper from afar, with Fei Xin following closely behind.

This group of human traffickers are very professional and are equipped with knockout drugs. Just a light puff can make children, young men and women confused and dull for a long time, allowing them to be manipulated by others.

Fei Xin followed them all the way to the residential area on the edge of the west city and saw them enter a house with her own eyes.

She had already drawn her sword, but she still asked Noita symbolically: "There are no professionals among them, how many should be left?"

Chapter 305: Dock Area

Noita said it was up to her, the violence was in Fei Xin's hands, she could deal with the other party however she wanted, as for herself, she was not interested in ordinary people.

Just a few seconds after Fei Xin entered the room, the biting cold air escaped from the window, and white frost rushed out of the house with the strong wind and landed on Noita's shoulder.

The inexperience was recorded in the log, letting people know that Fei Xin had spared their lives for the time being.

In a moment, Fei Xin walked out of the house with cold air, and the foolish men and women followed her like chicks following their mother. Noita twitched her nose and easily identified the poison in their bodies.

Fei Xin took these young men and women to the Xicheng District Public Security Bureau for placement. The police officer of the bureau took the group in with a smile and started to find a home for them.

During this time, Noita prepared neutralizing psychic hormones to restore their sanity.

The men and women who suddenly woke up from their dazed state were frightened and anxious, but they were comforted by the security personnel and regained their composure.

Thanks to Fei Xin's identity, the Public Security Bureau handled this incident more efficiently than before. Before dusk arrived, the identity information and interrogation results of the human traffickers fell into Fei Xin's hands. She was shocked to find that this gang had been committing crimes here for many years, and many missing cases were related to them.

As for the people they abducted, they were usually sent to other places via cargo ships at the docks. As to where they were sent to, even the traffickers themselves probably couldn't tell, and there were very few goods whose journeys could be traced.

Late at night, Fei Xin gazed at the dark factory with melancholy and sighed.

Noita came and sat down beside her, bringing her the hot tea provided by the Sheriff's Bureau.

She seemed indifferent to all this and was even interested in appreciating the outline of Xicheng District in the middle of the night, watching the factories that looked like animal spines running in the roar, and seeing the dim lights outlining the light that sucked life out of it.

Fei Xin sighed again, and Noita turned around and asked the girl, "Is it painful?"

Fei Xin nodded.

"I anticipated all of this, but after seeing and understanding it with my own eyes, I still..."

She pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.

It was all so bad it even confused her.

Serkar, whom she once loved, turned out to be a behemoth composed of countless misfortunes, sorrows, and sins?

In the past few days alone, she had encountered countless criminal gangs, so much so that many times she couldn't control herself and accidentally killed everyone.

She had not reported many gangs to the Sheriff's Department, who remained indifferent to these mass deaths, turning a blind eye and a deaf ear. They did not take the trouble to understand the reasons behind these cases, but simply classified them as gang fights.

"The Public Security Bureau doesn't want to get involved in this mess. They just want to maintain a semblance of respectability and stability. Besides, what can you expect from ordinary people and staff members who are no more than second-rank officials? They can solve cases between ordinary people, but it's too difficult for them to intervene in something that seems like a feud between powerful factions. You should know this."

Fei Xin knew that this was true, but knowing was one thing and being able to accept it was another.

"…I'm just a little sad."

"So are you going to stay here and be sad? I want to go home and sleep."

It was already late at night, the time for a deep sleep.

Fei Xin was full of confusion. Noita had been working all night in Xicheng District a few days ago and never said he was tired, so why did he want to rest now?

Although she didn't understand what she meant, Fei Xin still held Noita's hand and teleported her back home.

In the living room, Fei Xin habitually checked whether there were any extra monitoring devices and spells in the house. Ten minutes later, she found several voodoo dolls and alchemical props used for curses, all of which were not originally in her house.

Since a few days ago, some strange things have started to appear in her house, and the animated furniture in the house has no idea about it.

In order to prevent others from tampering with the house, Fei Xin reluctantly sold all the animated furniture at a low price, and started to check the house every day when she returned home.

The found rare items were handed over to Noita by Feixin, who then sent them all to the Gate City, using the power of the Gate City to sever the connection between the curse and the items.

After everything was done, Fei Xin grabbed Noita and asked, "What did you find that made you so anxious to go home?"

"I suddenly thought of a possibility."

Noita's experience as a human trafficker gave her an inspiration.

"Is it possible that we haven't been able to find the source of the ingredients for the anti-aging cream recently because they come from somewhere else?"

Noita took out a rough map of the West City District and traced his finger down the upper reaches of the river, stopping at the major dock areas.

"Serkar's human traffickers can use this river to transport people. Why can't Wingard use it to buy people? The docks are a mixed bag, with a huge throughput. The disappearance of a few migrant workers or slaves here won't cause a stir, and the huge flow of people can also serve as a cover for human trafficking."

Fei Xin had previously been attracted by the carriage in the intelligence and ignored this point.

It's possible.

Fei Xin pondered, then extended her hand to Noita: "Viya, take me to the club entrance, thank you."

She plans to find an informant to find out about the population/trading situation at the dock.

Noita held her helplessly, activated the teleportation spell, and arrived at the door of the Roost Club in an instant.

The Roost Club was even quieter late at night, and the door opened automatically to welcome them.

Fei Xin glanced at Noita suspiciously. Mr. Cobolt did not show up, which meant that both of them were members of the Perch Club and did not need to rely on temporary passes to enter and exit.

When did she get the membership?

Noita smiled, put her fingers on her lips, and did not directly answer Fei Xin's question.

"It's a secret, dear."

Well, secrets, one more secret of Viya is not much, one less secret is not much either.

Fei Xin had no choice but to separate from Noita and go looking for informants and intelligence dealers to buy information.

Noita came to the hot spring and teased the water element while calling out to the black spirit.

Unable to bear the harassment, the black spirit statue on the treetop came to life, its scarlet eyes staring at Noita, very puzzled: "My friend, since my real body is with you, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. Why go all the way to harass my clone?"

Noita said slowly, "I came here with Fei Xin. It's boring to stay here alone, so I caught you to chat and ask for some information."

The black spirit covered its face with its wings.

"I really can't understand your stubbornness, and if you can please not torture me by flirting, I have no intention of joining you."

"We'll discuss this later." Noita narrowed her eyes in amusement and asked about Wu Ling's recent commission. "I asked you to investigate the behind-the-scenes of the Rejuvenating Cream. How much have you found out?"

Birds are the eyes and ears of the flock, and the flock will communicate with each other in their roosts. Asking Wu Ling for information about the Dark Moon Land is a professional task. Even if it does not know it at the moment, it will quickly get relevant clues from other birds.

ps: There are three more chapters, dark crawling

Chapter 306 Give You a Claw

When it comes to intelligence, Wu Ling said seriously, "I've checked the relevant information. The address, the relevant forces, the backers behind it. This information is all stored in my mind. What information do you want to exchange for it?"

Intelligence is not free. Wu Ling is willing to give some favors to Noita, but she can't give intelligence for free.

Even among the real inhabitants, there is no such logic in giving out information for free. Usually, each of them tells the information they know and summarizes the information.

Noita just happened to have the information that Wu Ling needed.

"I know another path to Typhon's Dream that also connects to the Creek Moonlands."

Wu Ling's eyes fixed on Noita's shoulder. She said excitedly, "This information is valuable enough. Let's trade it."

So Noita told Wu Ling the coordinates of Xiyue Land that he had learned from the Stagnant Spirit, and also gave her the social situation of Xiyue Land.

The black spirit folded its wings and opened and closed its beak, telling her the information she had learned.

The main seller of the anti-aging cream is undoubtedly Wingard, but the original technology was brought to Serkar by a vampire named Elder. A long time ago, this vampire offended someone and was hunted down. He disappeared since then and is said to be dead.

Although the elder tree is dead, the skills it brought and the industries it spawned have not disappeared with its death.

With the support of the nobles, Mei Se series of cosmetics produces more and more products, but this is not enough. Professionals are a minority in Gaia. There are many nobles in this world who are powerful or rich but cannot stay young forever. They need the vitality of youth and desire to be as healthy and active as young people.

The fountain of youth that can extend life is rare in the world, but cheap anti-aging creams and optimizers are everywhere.

As a result, a large amount of raw materials were thrown into the blood pool, and the number of missing people in Serkar increased day by day.

The powerful and wealthy turned a blind eye to the raw materials, and as long as the competent authorities did not detect that it was a rejuvenating cream, they would use the product with peace of mind.

It was not until Fei Xin discovered the underground workshop that optimized the youth cream and Liya contacted various departments for joint law enforcement that this act of covering up the truth became unsustainable. The powerful had to face the fact that the raw materials were living people. But what was even more terrifying was that if Wingard fell because of this, the cheap and openly used youth potion would completely disappear.

——The improved formula is still in Wen Jiade’s hands.

That's why all the subsequent events happened, lobbyists came one after another, the news tone reversed, Zhedan was cleared of all charges and became a famous alchemist.

"Hengfeng's involvement is also involved. This old fellow may be quite old, but his heart is not honest at all." Wu Ling casually mentioned the elders' affairs while discussing intelligence. "Hengfeng wants to take it one step further. He usually claims to be neutral, but when the benefits fall into his sight, he will happily come out and blow the whistle. He is currently the largest shareholder of the Mei Se series."

Wu Ling often spoke of Hengfeng with disdain. As a legendary retainer, his life was much more comfortable than Hengfeng's.

Noita pretended to be experiencing this for the first time and asked curiously, "Doesn't the Paragon care about this? This is His city after all."

Wu Ling stared at Noita in surprise, and immediately remembered that this girl was an outsider and didn't know much about Serkar's twists and turns.

Wu Ling explained, "He won't care. I'll tell you the name of Serkar's paragon and you'll understand why. His name is Serkar."

The city of Serkar was named after the model.

"Serkar is wind, water, air, a moving person, and an immobile corpse. He is Serkar. As long as this city exists, it provides him with strength. No matter how its inhabitants live, no matter whether the extraordinary beings within live or die, benevolent or cruel, as long as the city continues to expand, his strength will grow."

"In human terms, he is the embodiment of Serkar civilization. However, because Serkar is still on the side of order, and Mengxiangtian, in many records, is portrayed as someone who detests the extremely absurd, life for the Serkar people is relatively manageable. Furthermore, the strong oppressing the weak is, in a sense, part of order. Therefore, as long as the extraordinary people in the city don't start a massacre, something that is likely to bring divine punishment, he generally does not interfere."

What Wu Ling said was roughly consistent with the information Noita knew. She licked her lips and prepared to ask a dangerous question to see if the crow's answer was what she wanted.

When she was about to ask the question, her expression was as dangerous as a snake, which made Wu Ling instinctively alert and suspected that the person in front of her wanted to murder her.

"If a transcendent fights to the death in Serkar, will the Paragon intervene?"

Wu Ling's eyes brightened, and she tightened her claws that were grabbing Noita's shoulders slightly. She stared at Noita, and her clear eyes were full of innocence and curiosity.

It was as if she was really just curious about the topic.

But Wu Ling didn't believe her. The more beautiful the bird, the more likely it is to lie. And when Noita transformed into a bird, she would definitely be one of the most beautiful ones, which also meant that she was very good at lying.

Bad stuff.

Wu Ling grumbled in her heart, but she decided to answer Noita's question.

Because she was also curious about who Noita regarded as an enemy. If Noita really wanted to fight an elder as his debut battle, Wu Ling would take note of this battle.

"Transcendent death is also part of the Serkar ecosystem. As long as you don't express hostility towards Serkar as a whole, the Paragon won't attack you. By the way, you are a Serkar, right?"

Noita nodded and registered her identity at the city hall in order to buy the land.

"That's no problem. You're also a Serkar. Even if you're an enemy of Chaofan, it's just an internal dispute."

Noita raised a finger and denied it, "I have never thought of becoming an enemy of Serkar's extraordinary people. Don't slander me."

"Tsk, that's better."

Wu Ling handed over all the information about the main source of the anti-aging cream's raw materials, production workshops, sponsors list, etc. to Noita.

Then she flew onto the branch and turned back into a statue, completely ignoring Noita's fierce gaze from under the branch.

In Typhon's dream, Wu Ling's body was digging in the sand helplessly. At this time, she was in a remote secret realm somewhere in Typhon's dream. Canfeng and Chuimu, who were restrained by her, led a group of people who could collect the power of disasters to continuously destroy other secret realms, collect the power of disasters and transmit it back.

A flock of birds flapped their wings in the sky, and beneath them, dozens of facilities similar to abyssal wells stood in different secret realms.

Wu Ling had already been to the secret realm where the Wild Dream City was located and had seen the ruins of the sealed Abyss Well. Now in this remote place, she summoned her fellow birdmen to come here and, with the help of the power of the Lord of Dull Color, built many fusion facilities that could burn through the boundaries between the shallow and deep layers.
