Chapter 404 The Villain Lady Arrives 233
However, when she returned to the city, she found that things were not as simple as she thought. The mysterious man seemed to have known her whereabouts and was looking for her everywhere. Alice knew that she had to find a safe place to hide now in order to have a chance to avenge Tariq.
So, she began to ask around for information and look for a place to hide. After some effort, she finally found a hidden basement. This basement is located on the edge of the city, and few people know of its existence. Alice thought this was a good hiding place, so she decided to stay out of the limelight here for a while.
In the basement, Alice began to practice hard. She knew that only by becoming stronger could she have a chance to deal with the mysterious man. So, she continued to practice magic and martial arts to improve her strength.
However, the training process was not smooth sailing. Alice often became exhausted from excessive training and even felt dizzy at times. However, she never gave up. She knew that she had to persevere in order to have a chance to avenge Tariq.
After spending a long time in the basement, Alice finally felt that she had become strong enough, so she decided to leave the basement and seek revenge on the mysterious man.
She asked around for information and finally learned the hiding place of the mysterious man, which was an abandoned factory in the center of the city, where the mysterious man often carried out his evil plans.
Alice decided to sneak into the factory, find the mysterious man and kill him. She quietly came to the vicinity of the factory and observed the surrounding situation. She found that the factory was surrounded by guards, and it was obvious that the mysterious man had taken precautions.
However, this did not scare Alice. She decided to use her magic and martial arts to sneak into the factory quietly. After some efforts, she finally succeeded in entering the factory.
She walked carefully, afraid to make any noise. She came to a spacious room and looked inside through the crack in the door. She saw a mysterious man sitting at a table, holding a map in his hand, and seemed to be studying something.
Alice was delighted when she saw this. She knew this was a great opportunity for her to kill the mysterious man. So she quietly walked to the door and prepared to push it open.
However, at this moment, a guard suddenly appeared in front of her. He stared at Alice with wide eyes and shouted in horror: "You... who are you? Why are you here?"
Alice was shocked when she saw this. She knew she couldn't reveal her identity, otherwise it would alert the enemy. So she quickly cast a spell to freeze the guard in place.
However, at this moment, a guard suddenly appeared in front of her. He stared at Alice with wide eyes and shouted in horror: "You... who are you? Why are you here?"
Alice's heart tightened, but she remained calm on the surface. She quickly glanced around to make sure no other guards noticed the movement here. She knew that she could not hesitate at this moment, otherwise all her plans would go to waste.
She raised the corners of her mouth slightly and cast a subtle magic, blocking the guard's voice in his throat, so that he could only make a faint "woohoo" sound. The guard's eyes widened even more, full of fear and confusion. Alice took the opportunity to hypnotize him, causing him to fall into a short coma.
After doing all this, Alice took a deep breath and looked at the half-open door again. She knew that the real challenge had just begun. She carefully stepped over the guard who had fallen to the ground, pushed open the door, and rushed into the house.
The mysterious man heard the noise and raised his head suddenly. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, but under this sudden impact, he couldn't help showing a trace of surprise. The map in his hand slipped onto the table, and the inky lines flashed a strange light under the light.
"You...how did you find this place?" The mysterious man's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of disbelief.
Alice stood in the middle of the room, staring at the mysterious man with a sharp gaze. She slowly raised her right hand, and a ray of blue magic light condensed at her fingertips. It was the result of her years of practice. "I am Alice, Tariq's friend. Today, I am here to seek justice for him."
An uncertain look flashed across the mysterious man's face. He stood up and slowly took a few steps back, as if assessing the current situation. "Alice... hum, so you are that little girl. I didn't expect you to have grown to this point."
"Little girl?" Alice sneered, "Yes, I was a little girl. But since Tariq left, I am no longer the weakling who only knows how to cry behind others. Today, I will make you pay for what you have done."
The mysterious man sneered, seemingly not taking Alice's threat seriously. "Do you think you can defeat me? That's ridiculous."
Alice did not answer, she did not want to waste any more time. She rushed forward, the magic light in her hand shot straight at the mysterious man like an arrow from a string. The mysterious man reacted very quickly, dodged the attack easily by moving sideways.
But Alice did not stop there. She turned around and attacked again. This time, she used martial arts, and the magic light in her hand turned into a sharp sword, piercing the mysterious man's vitals. The mysterious man snorted coldly, waved his hands, and an invisible barrier appeared in front of him, blocking Alice's attack.
The two fought back and forth in the room, and it was hard to tell who was the winner. Alice found that the mysterious man's strength was indeed not to be underestimated. His magic and martial arts were extremely superb, and there seemed to be some mysterious power supporting him. But Alice did not retreat, she knew she could not give up.
After a period of fierce fighting, Alice finally found a flaw. She kicked the ground hard and rushed towards the mysterious man like an arrow. This time, she did not use any magic or martial arts, but relied on her speed and strength to directly hit the mysterious man.
The mysterious man didn't expect Alice to do this. He was caught off guard and was knocked back a few steps by Alice. Alice took the opportunity to step forward, grabbed his collar, and pulled him in front of her.
"Tell me, who are you? Who is the mastermind behind this?" Alice's voice was cold and firm, and her eyes were like ice as she stared at the mysterious man.
The mysterious man stared at Alice with his eyes wide open, but his lips were tightly closed, and he said nothing. Seeing this, Alice became even more angry. She shook the mysterious man's body hard, trying to make him speak.
"Do you think I can't do anything if you don't say it? Let me tell you, I have plenty of ways to make you speak." Alice's voice was low and hoarse, and there was a crazy light in her eyes.
The mysterious man remained silent, and even had a mocking smile on his face. This made Alice even more angry, and she felt that she had been insulted like never before.
