Chapter 589 The Storm in the Fjords

A storm is brewing in the waters east of the Fiordlands.

The gray clouds were very low, and lightning flashed through the clouds from time to time, and the dull thunder seemed to come from far away, like the angry roar of a god.

Hetty Morgan was in the same mood as this bad weather.

It has been more than two months since Yi Fei and You Yu were dispatched, and there is still no news, which is really unreasonable.

If it is said that the two places are far away, it is difficult to transmit the message, but as far as she knows, Honey is also in the west of Graycastle, just threaten the little guy with a few words and grab an animal messenger to come over.

Could it be that something happened to the lord's territory?

Hetty closed the window irritably to keep out the howling sea breeze.

Recently, the situation on Sleeping Island has become more and more unfavorable to me. Since Tilly opened it, the non-combat witches have sided with her overwhelmingly, and it turns out that the fjord people's need for auxiliary witches is indeed far greater than that of combat. Witches, after all, there are not many foreign enemies in this place, and the Chamber of Commerce hires witches mainly for business or to open up waterways.

As a result, the status of this group of powerless guys has been rising steadily, and they have a faint tendency to compete with the battle witch.

Then there are mortals.

Damn it, why didn't I think of this at the beginning, Hetty thought bitterly, no matter how the island was originally divided, there were only two factions, as long as she always spoke on behalf of the Battle Witch, she wouldn't be much weaker than Tilly. But now more and more ordinary islanders migrated here, and the power has gradually become three factions, and the latter is influenced by the Chamber of Commerce, and almost only recognizes Tilly, which can be seen from the fact that she leaves the island every few days— —Especially after gaining Lei Ting's support, she has become a VIP from other islands.

When she thinks of this, an unknown fire will surge in her heart, what to build a good relationship with ordinary people and promote integration, this is simply a trick to strengthen her own power!

Tilly fooled everyone!

She is selling out the home that only belongs to witches to ordinary people little by little!

If things go on like this, he will never be able to replace Tilly Wimbledon.

This was the first time that Hetty was helpless with a 20-year-old yellow-haired girl, and her desire to win the Battle Witch to leave Sleeping Island became stronger and stronger. Just when she was going to ask Camilla, the chief steward of Sleeping Island, about the situation, and see when she could let the Pretty Woman make another trip to the west, the door was suddenly pushed open.

"My lord, it's not good!" Tian Yan rushed in and said anxiously.

"what happened?"

As her most capable subordinate who had followed her for the longest time, Tianyan seldom showed such a flustered look, which made Heti feel a little strange.

"A new witch has come to Sleeping Island. I heard that her name is Annie!"

"So what?" Hetty asked puzzled. Ever since the merchants spread the news of Sleeping Island, wandering wild witches occasionally came to their door, which is really not a rare thing.

"She came from the wolf's heart!" Tianyan said in a low voice, "I have seen her before!"

Suddenly there was a thunder in the sky!

Heidi's heart couldn't help trembling, and she quickly realized what the other party meant, "You mean...she is a loser who was rejected by the Bloodfang Society? That's impossible! Could it be just the same name?"

"I thought so too at first, so I hid in the crowd and took a peek. Although she was carried into the palace, her appearance was indeed very similar to that of Annie a few years ago!"

"you sure?"

"My lord, I'm not sure about other witches, but Annie is different... Back then she brought a companion with her, who is now Ife." Tianyan gritted his teeth, "Because of this, Ife kept crying all the way. , and clamored to go back, so I wrote down her appearance."

"How could such a thing happen, shouldn't they all..." Heti grabbed Tian Yan's collar, "You let her go?"

"No, my lord, I did as you told me!" she pleaded, "please believe me, I will never betray you!"

Heti stared into her eyes for a while, then slowly let go of her hand, "You just said, what happened to her being carried into the palace?"

"She seems to be infected with the cold epidemic, and she is not seriously ill," Tian Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "Someone has already gone to invite Della over there."

Daila's ability can cut off the pain and restore peace, but it cannot cure the cold plague. Hetty walked back and forth in the room for a while, "Tilly isn't on the island, is she?"

"Yes, she went to Shuanglong Island two days ago, as if she was busy exploring the sea."

Hetty stopped in her tracks, "Go and call Higurashi here, and ask Shaji to inquire about the situation. She has never met Annie, so she is not afraid of being recognized by the other party."

"yes."

...

It was raining heavily in the sky, and the sound of the dense rain was pounding on the window panels. Hetty sat at the table without saying a word, while Tianyan and Rimu stood quietly waiting for her next instruction. The atmosphere here was quite dull for a while.

Suddenly there were hurried footsteps outside the house.

The door opened and closed, and Shaji, who was returning, leaned against the door leaf, took off her soaked raincoat and straw hat, and breathed out, "The witch named Anne has fallen asleep, but Della said her condition is not ideal , the cold plague has already injured the lungs, and the onset should not take a day or two."

"Really," Hetty's voice was terribly gloomy, "What is Camilla going to do?"

"She said that there is a witch in the western region of Graycastle who can cure any disease, and when the rainstorm subsides, she will send Anne to the western region."

Hetty was so angry that she wanted to laugh. Hiring One-Eyed Jack to go back and forth to the fjord would cost nearly a hundred gold dragons. When she asked to be sent to Graycastle or other islands, Camilla always tried to shirk, but now she is doing it for a useless strange witch. Send out the Pretty Woman?

Moreover, if the other party is allowed to go to the western region, once reunited with Yi Fei, all the things she has done will be exposed, which is absolutely intolerable to her.

In any case, Annie must be kept on the island.

Hetty suppressed her anger and looked at Ri Mu, "You should let her fall into a deep sleep, right?"

"You mean... use the Seed of Rest?" The latter was startled, "It is possible, but why do you want to—"

"Because she is a traitor of the Bloodfang Society!" Hetty interrupted impatiently, "You don't need to know the specifics, as long as you understand that her crime is unforgivable."

"She's also a battle witch?" Higurashi was a little puzzled, "Why didn't you make a decision after Tilly came back? If someone finds out, we'll be in trouble."

"The traitor of the Blood Fang Society will naturally be dealt with by the Blood Fang Society," Hetty narrowed her eyes slightly, "and if she is handed over to Tilly, that innocent little girl will punish her even more? Why, you want to violate the law?" My decision?"

"Of course not... my lord," Higurashi shuddered, "I am willing to solve this traitor for you."
