The sound of waves and tides enveloped this seaside port, and the sea breeze blew the thick fog from the mysterious sea to the land.

A dazzling light flashed past, and a girl in a luxurious gothic dress appeared in the middle of the street shrouded in thick fog.

There was also a sloth-like thing hanging on her body.

Fang Xingyang's face had turned into a mask of pain at this moment, because he never thought that teleportation would be so painful.

It’s like sticking your head outside the moving high-speed train!

"You can come down now."

At Li's command, Fang Xingyang, who was completely exhausted, slid off her body.

"According to our plan, this mission will be mainly carried out by the two of us. My other colleagues are already ready at a certain distance, and I will be your assistant during the mission." Li said, staring into Fang Xingyang's eyes.

"Ah? As my assistant? What do you mean?"

"To put it clearly, you are the main force of this mission. All of us are your backup, and I am your personal backup. If you accept our commission, we will provide you with unconditional help."

Li Mian explained to him without changing his expression, "Before you officially enter the Pale Harbor Alchemy Shop, I will change my form and turn myself into a pendant that you can carry with you; to our enemies, you are alone.

When you come to her shop, if your life is in danger, you can release me for emergency treatment."

Fang Xingyang was dumbfounded.

You didn’t tell me this before you set off!

He even felt a little broken inside.

Originally, he naively thought that he could at most play a cheerleading role in this mission.

After the people from the alchemy shop in Hong Kong City defeated the old witch, he jumped out and mocked the old witch.

Why has everyone become his assistant now?

"You, where are your colleagues? Didn't you say they were already here?" Fang Xingyang looked around, but due to the thick fog, he couldn't even see the street scenes on both sides of the street.

"They have ambush outside a certain area according to the plan."

"In addition, they will not directly interfere with the actions of the two of us. Their role is to form an absolutely solid protective network on the periphery to prevent the enemy from escaping."

Then, she pointed to the direction in which the street extended, "At the end of this path is the Pale Harbor Alchemy Shop. If you are ready, we will set off now."

Fang Xingyang looked in the direction pointed by Li and couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

Xin said, do you believe me too much? Are you preventing the enemy from escaping? I'm afraid you are not preventing me from escaping!

…

A few minutes later, Fang Xingyang stood in front of the Alchemy Shop in Pale Harbor. In the thick fog, the outline of the Alchemy Shop seemed to be oppressive like a huge mechanical monster.

"Start taking action. If you encounter danger, you can throw me out, but don't let me appear too casually."

"Why?" Fang Xingyang expressed confusion.

"Because there is a fee."

After Li finished speaking, a sound of mechanical operation suddenly came from beside him.

Li's body suddenly began to collapse at a strange speed, as if a paper man had been turned into a compressed paper ball by a mysterious force.

But Li did not turn into a ball of paper, but instead turned into a metal block pendant slightly smaller than an egg.

Fang Xingyang picked Li up from the ground. It seemed that she could no longer speak after the transformation. From then on, he was the only one left on this empty street.

[Ding - [Stop Evil with Evil] mission is started! Current goal: Enter [Pale Harbor Alchemy Shop] and look for the alchemy witch. 】

[Task Tips: As the executor of this commission, this task can also be used as a test for you by [Hong Kong City Alchemy Shop]. Every move you make may affect the final score; this task is a large-scale task and will end

Additional rewards will be distributed later, and the content of the rewards depends on your rating!]

[The following is the system simulation score - current score: f (you have not started taking action yet)]

A hint of cunning flashed in Fang Xingyang's eyes.

My heart says you want to give me a reward, but I’m not afraid anymore!

The next second, he pushed open the door and entered.

In the dark hall, several alchemy machines are still in operation.

The huge gears rotate slowly, transporting some fluorescent colored liquid from one machine to another.

"Oh... I was wondering what kind of guest came this time, and it turned out to be you, little one!"

A familiar voice suddenly sounded from the corner. Fang Xingyang subconsciously turned to the direction of the sound, but only saw a flash of black shadow from behind an alchemy machine.

"Excuse me...what do you need when you come to my shop, old lady?" The voice of the alchemist witch suddenly came from behind Fang Xingyang again.

Fang Xingyang suddenly understood in his heart that the old witch probably did not intend to treat him as a customer, otherwise, there would be no need to pretend to be a ghost here.

He chuckled lightly and said, "It's very simple. I accepted a request from a big customer and came to visit your store."

"Oh? Big customer? Visiting? Just you?"

The alchemy witch's contemptuous laughter came from the corner, "Humph... If the so-called big customer hadn't asked you to come and buy something, do you know that this trip would have cost you your life?"

Fang Xingyang looked towards the direction of the voice behind him, and a series of relevant data quickly poured into his mind——

[Alchemy Puppet·Copy Slice]

【Level:26】

[Race: None]

[Faction: None]

[Attribute: Wood]

[Ability: Wood element manipulation]

[Threat value: low]

[Introduction: An alchemy puppet created by the alchemy witch and introduced with the power of the wood element. In daily life, it serves as a staff member of the alchemy shop. If necessary, it can also be transformed into a powerful combat machine. 】

"Actually... I really want to study you. After all, humans are so rare in this world. I didn't expect you to come to my door yourself. Hehehehe..."

The alchemy puppet said and walked out of the shadows.

Fang Xingyang didn't expect that the appearance of this puppet actually looked exactly like the old witch. If the system hadn't prompted him first, he might have mistaken the puppet in front of him for a real alchemy witch.

Sure enough, the alchemy puppet walked up to him step by step on crutches, and a hand suddenly turned into a vine and stretched out towards him, entangled Fang Xingyang's hand that just wanted to touch the Netherworld Soul Lamp.

The next second, some sharp thorns slowly began to grow on the vines, and a dense tingling sensation began to come from that hand.

But Fang Xingyang didn't look panicked at all, and instead calmly took out a fire elemental array module from his pocket.

This thing functions like a lighter in his original world.

He calmly placed the array module under the vine wrapping himself and activated it.

The severe pain caused by the flames roasting the blazing wood elements made the alchemy puppet's whole body tremble, and huge fear immediately burst out from its lifeless eyes.

"What's the point of hiding? If you let such a dummy come out, do you really think I can't see through it?"

After saying that, Fang Xingyang smiled helplessly and threw the burning fire element module in his hand behind him.

The blazing fire element lost control instantly after leaving his hand, turning into an uncontrollable fireball and igniting the whole body of the wood element puppet.

For a moment, the only thing left in the oppressive alchemy shop hall was the hoarse wailing of the alchemy puppet.

At the same time, there was an encrypted communication channel that Fang Xingyang didn't know about.

"Li: I have successfully entered the mission area and he has already started taking action."

"Boss: How is it?"

"Li: Well, he was very quick in thinking. He used the fire element to burn the wooden puppet immediately."

"Li: But I don't know where he got the fire element array module."

"Boss: Humph... He just wants to live. What's there to be suspicious of? Open up your horizons for me and I'll see for myself what's going on there."

"Li: received."

By then, on the strange metal pendant on Fang Xingyang's waist, a gem that looked like an ornament would fluoresce slightly...
