Lord of Enigma

On the table, the photos were spread out one by one, each one was a portrait of a human figure. The photographs were very clear, worthy of the emergency funds paid by Tang Qi.

Suddenly, Tang Qi didn't show any surprise in his eyes. He calmly picked out a group photo and a separate photo. After repeatedly confirming that no one was missing, he exhaled gently and murmured, "Sure enough, that old hag isn't here, it seems like this really was just a surprise."

As soon as he finished speaking, he began to seriously look at the picture in front of him.

It was a family of black people, a family named "Samra".

Despite the absence of the Samra Family Head, and the acting patriarch who was placed in the Balancing Scale of Soul Exchange by Tang Qi.

All the other members were in the photo.

The most conspicuous person in the photo was as tall as a little giant, with a big face, dressed in a butcher's suit, and very small eyes, but his cruel and indifferent aura could be seen through the photo.

"Balagon, the second son of the Samra Family, his current profession was a butcher."

Tang Qi took out a charcoal pen and marked him in the photo.

Strictly speaking, the two sides have not met yet, and Tang Qi's mark was also based on the records in old Morgan's diary.

Then he looked at the second person, a middle-aged woman, skinny and expressionless as if her eyes were always wide open, she was just as indifferent as Balagon.

"Georgina, Balagon's wife, works as a maid."

After marking her, he looked at the third and fourth person, a pair of female twins, ordinary appearance, fat, with small dirty braids, and a fierce look on their faces.

"The Hariya sisters, daughters of Balagon and Georgina, currently unemployed."

After marking them, Tang Qi directly skipped the last two people. According to old Morgan's diary, they were just two tribal slaves who followed them out of the Saha Continent, they were only responsible for doing the rough work and were irrelevant.

What made him behave solemnly was the last two photos.

In the first picture, was a black man with a slender and tall body, his face was as if had a serious illness. His age seemed to be between youthful and middle-aged, and his body was almost completely covered with strange tattoos, even on his eyelids.

He was dressed in what appeared to be dark red cotton cloth and stood silently behind a young man like a ghost.

The second one was the young man, a thin, ugly-looking man who was the leader of the group. Standing in the center, he looked sullenly at the villa that had been sealed.

"Foska!"

"Abu!"

Tang Qi said two names.

Unlike his previous gaze. Tang Qi's eyes were filled with undisguised uneasiness.

The source of anxiety came from the description in old Morgan's diary.

In the diary, he described a very malicious and terrible witchcraft called "Uluru Puppet".

And in the Samra family, there was such a puppet, which was Samra's third son Foska.

He was born with an intellectual defect. After having his only son with a slave, he was made into a puppet by his biological mother, Samra. After his transformation, he became a true killing machine with the power to destroy everything, terrifying speed, nearly endless endurance, and some eerie passive black magic spells inscribed on his body.

But compared with a puppet, the one in second place made Tang Qi feel more unsettled.

The thin and ugly-faced black man named Abu, the only son of Foska, and also Samra's most beloved grandson. 

According to old Morgan's diary, Samra was almost certain that Abu would become the next inheritor of the "Black Snake Witch".

However, the term would no longer be the Black Snake Witch Samra, but the Black Snake Wizard Abu.

After marking the two, Tang Qi fell into deep thought.

He was calculating whether the power he had now could confront this family without Samra.

Just a few seconds later, Tang Qi shook his head and the answer was no.

Of course, old Morgan's dairy couldn't depict all of these people's strengths, but even the ones revealed have made Tang Qi feel that this matter was extremely hard to deal with.

"Unless he can let official forces intervene…"

As soon as this idea came to mind, it was rejected.

He was just a police advisor now, so it was difficult to ask the official forces to help him deal with the Samra family. Especially because during the process of landing in the Federation, the Samra family became particularly cautious based on the lessons of the past, and there was almost no dirt that Tang Qi could seize and frame.

"The most important thing was that If he couldn't finish them in one blow, it wasn't ideal to make a move. He couldn't afford to let one of them escape and suffer Samra's consequences."

"Samra was definitely a highly ranked professional. Especially after the return of the spirit tide, her power …"

"There's no need to worry about it now, I still have time. Except for Samra, Old Morgan didn't tell anyone about the Soul Exchange Ritual. After bidding farewell to old Morgan, Samra left Moses City to travel. Which means … "

"Inhale~"

Tang Qi's thoughts were quickly straightened out by him.

After he breathed out, Tang Qi's eyes fell on the pile of secret potion materials in the center of the living room and made a decision almost immediately.

Tang Qi went directly to the phone and successively called the school counselor and Stanna, and got a day's vacation. He then wanted to tell Sally, but after remembering that the girl's family didn't have this luxury at home, He had no choice but to give up.

After everything was settled down, Tang Qi cooked a delicious dinner for himself as usual. He could do other dishes, but Tang Qi had a sense of ritual as if he was on earth. After the full meal, Tang Qi still didn't start. Instead, he entered the process of mediation.

Only this time, in addition to cultivation, it was more important to adjust his state of mind. Before the "retreat", he'd let his body and spirit enter their best state.

About an hour later, Tang Qi woke up.

He rose slowly, feeling the warm aura. His body and spirit had entered an unprecedented fullness.

"Let's start!"

In a whisper, Tang Qi went to his workbench.

In the past, that was the place he used to make extraordinary bullets.

And now, it would be where he tackled the secret potions.

"One day and night, I'll try to create the "Mist Body" series of secret medicine with beginner-level Secret Pharmacy. Although the materials are complete, if other secret pharmacists knew about this, they would probably laugh at me for being a lunatic.

In such a short period of time, even the most basic [Swift Secret Medicine] may not be created successfully, but he actually wanted to create the [Mist Body Secret Medicine] step by step?

…

"Though others can't, why must I be one of them?"

When it comes to mysterious objects that can increase combat power in a short period, he had no access to them. He had nothing within his reach except for secret medicine.

"So, in fact, I have no other choice."
