"Do you think he will agree?"
After Lei Ting's footsteps were gone, Roland asked Nightingale.
"I don't know," Nightingale replied slowly, "but his last words were serious."
Roland nodded and stopped talking. In addition to the lightning factor, Lei Ting also has his own selfishness. As a famous explorer in the fjord, whether it is to attract people from the fjord to take refuge or serve as the core of the fleet, the other party is the most ideal candidate.
Especially the latter, according to Agatha's inference, the red mist should have covered more than half of Eternal Winter now, and when the first army is in place, I am afraid that even the border of the wolf heart will not be spared. In such a situation, a rescue or flanking strike along the coastline would be an essential part. It can be seen from the case of the retreat of the extreme north port that a support fleet with strong firepower can reduce the pressure on the ground forces.
The merchant ships that come and go now seem to be orderly, but it is basically impossible for them to enter the red fog area to fight the devil. It is not difficult for Neverwinter to gather a few large ships. Fleet characters.
If the Thunder is willing to stay, these problems can undoubtedly be solved.
However, Roland also knew that this kind of thing could not be forced, and he could only wait for the other party to think about it slowly.
As he picked up the pen and was about to resume his previous work, a phone suddenly rang.
Judging from the line, the caller came from the witch building inside the castle district.
"Hey?"
"Your Majesty, I'm Wendy," came a familiar voice from the receiver, "Shoal Harbor Checkpoint Report, they found a witch."
…
"Excuse me... Sir, where are you taking us?"
Dailan took Momo's hand and asked carefully.
Not long ago, like other migrants, they moved to the checkpoint along the long queue, but after entering the identity registration area, they were invited out of the team by the men in black alone and entered a seemingly transparent room. , but guarded the small room.
This made both of them feel tense.
It's not that she hasn't heard that some cities will select some people for special "interrogation" when they inspect refugees. If they can't get the corresponding benefits, they will suffer a lot.
But the other party didn't do anything, just hang them in the room for a while, and then after asking some weird questions, they let them out, and another man in black led them to the inner city.
"Don't be so polite, just call me Cerf," the man in black said in an easy-going tone, "You are witches, right?"
Dai Lan couldn't help being surprised. She didn't expect the other party to point out her identity so straightforwardly. What was even more surprising was how they identified that they possessed magical powers? She thought she had disguised herself well enough.
"You… why do you say that?"
"I don't know anything about magic, those witches told me." Cerf touched the back of his head and said, "I heard that they can perceive the existence of magic through a special kind of stone. As for where to take you, of course You must be exhausted on the way to the witch's residence, don't worry, Lord Wendy will take good care of you."
Dai Lan and Momo looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
One is that Neverwinter City actually has the means to identify witches. If the former church and those wolf-hearted nobles can do this, they probably won't survive at all.
The second is to listen to each other's tone, the witch seems to be cooperating with ordinary people, and there is no barrier
Regarding this city located at the westernmost end of Greycastle, and its ruler Roland Wimbledon, it was not that the two of them had not heard the master mention it. During the drifting journey before boarding the ship, they had heard various comments and rumors many times. It's just that the content of the two is very different. One describes the King of Greycastle as a brutal and arrogant person, and the so-called solicitation of witches is just to satisfy his own evil desires; while the other affirms the achievements of the new Greycastle, She thought that the witches who went there had lived a life no different from ordinary people.
It can be said that it was the second type of rumors that made them decide to move south.
But after all, the two places are separated by thousands of miles, and no one knows what the real situation will be. Therefore, the two planned to hide their identities and live for a while, and then make the next plan after identifying the truth. .
Fortunately, people here really don't seem to treat witches as aliens anymore.
When they came to the outskirts of the castle area, a red-haired woman walked over with two little girls with a smile.
"Leave it to me next."
"Yes, Lord Wendy!" Cerf gave a salute and waved to the two of them, then turned and left quickly.
Dai Lan also quietly looked at the woman called Wendy.
"My name is Wendy, the head of the Neverwinter Witch Alliance. These two are my assistants, Bell and Gray Rabbit." The other party smiled, "Can you tell me your names? Although the roster says Dai Lan and Momo, but I'd rather hear what you guys have to say."
She suddenly felt a spring breeze, and no one had spoken to her in such a gentle tone for a long time. The other party is more like a nobleman than those so-called nobles. Not only is his appearance mature and attractive, his clothes are elegant, but his temperament is also different, just like a character who came out of a picture scroll.
"I'm Dailan." She whispered.
"Momo," the partner said his name.
"It's all a good name." Wendy raised their hands and said, "Welcome to Neverwinter, from today onwards, this is your new home. Come, I'll take you to get acquainted with the future life. place."
It was not until he passed through the fence and courtyard that Dailan realized that the Lord's Castle was not the tallest building here. Behind it, there was a seemingly larger building. The two are separated by a spacious garden and lawn, and several women with outstanding looks are chatting together, and their faces are full of relaxed expressions.
Probably, the life of your dreams is also like this, right
"Are they... also witches?" Momo couldn't help asking.
"That's right," Wendy nodded. "If it's off-duty time, you'll see more."
"Uh... off work?"
"It means the end of the work." Ling explained, "In Neverwinter, witches are like everyone else, they have their own work to do every day."
"Then they..."
The little girl pouted, "There are always diligent and lazy ones, just like ordinary people."
"Didn't your sister tell you that my ears are very smart?" A woman with pointed ears first looked here, and then came over with a smile on her lips.
"Ah... Sister Lorgar, I didn't mean you," Ling quickly waved her hand, "I mean"
"Yo, there is a new member in the alliance?" Another person quickly followed, "Hello, my name is Mystery Moon, the leader of the Neverwinter Detective Corps is also! No matter what ability you have, you can become detectives. A member of the group, how are you, are you interested?"
"It's this one." Ling covered her face weakly.
"Oh? Did you just introduce me?" Mystery Moon said that the detective team relies on brains rather than ability to solve problems. If someone advises you to join the expedition, don't agree. They only value the ability, but ignore the connotation, such as this lady wolf girl. "
"Beat you." Lorgar showed his canine teeth.
"Look, this is the proof!" Miyue quickly made a blocking gesture.
"It's a shame..."
"Well, can I go back and read?" the other witches whispered.
Dai Lan was stunned for a moment.
Uh, life here seems to be different from what she imagined... a little bit different
