Ghost Chapter 41 Intrigues
After learning that it was Diana's nemesis, the Dark Magic, had seized control of the Ghost and its three sea monsters, Mark and his party rushed back.
But fortunately, Tony Mads can sense the general direction of the sorceress and not spin around like a headless fly.
In just one day, they quickly found Diana and the little princess Monica's Jackdaw.
It's been less than a week, but a lot has happened, and Mark and Cint tell Diana and Monica, who are still in the dark, about their trip to capture the breathing grass and what Purac said on the island of Kalein.
"Oh my God, what the hell are those dark magic guys trying to do?" Monica said in horror, "Captured Claris Island, captured so many sorceress, and captured the Ghost?"
"Are they really going to control the sea?" said Diana.
"I'm not sure yet, but the thought that they've taken control of the Spectre is going to turn you on you!" Mark reassured. Because of the current female magician family, except for Diana and Monica and others, most of the others have been assimilated by black magic!
"But according to the latest information on our side, Clares Island has been in turmoil recently, and I'm afraid something big is going to happen!" Diana took out a crystal ball and continued: "This is yesterday's picture outside the island, a crack from the demon world has been cut!"
Mark looked at the crystal ball and couldn't help but feel a little worried, but there seemed to be a sign of a ship on the edge of the sea. He'd been to Clares Island, which was surrounded by a barrier that human ships couldn't easily approach.
"On this ship is ...... It's the British Empire!" Mark exclaimed as he looked at the red, blue, and white flag hanging from the stern of the ship.
"The British Empire has been in full swing in recent years, and it has greatly overwhelmed the momentum of other empires. Constant victories in several naval battles between empires in recent years. "When Diana was in Paris, she was involved in the events of the Queen Regent.
"But why would they work with a dark mage?" Monica said.
"If there is cooperation, there must be common interests. Clint said.
"But the cooperation between the British Empire and the Dark Mage always feels more like a tiger seeking the skin of a tiger! Both forces should not be underestimated, and the betrayal of teammates for their own interests can occur at any time. Mark said.
"If the British Empire likes to divide other countries, then their alliance can also be divided!" Diana said briskly, her mouth raised.
"It's not impossible. But we must first know what the purpose of the British Empire's cooperation is, and we must know what weight to choose to win this 'ally'!" Mark said.
"The sea power country is nothing more than maritime hegemony, and it is an absolute maritime hegemony!" Diana said, after several years of experience, traveling around many countries on the Sun and Moon Continent, it can be regarded as seeing through the disputes of those countries.
"I don't think it's just maritime supremacy, with the strength of the British Empire, it is absolutely possible to attack two empires at the same time without falling behind!" Clint said.
"I agree with Clint's point of view, after all, the strength of the British Empire to seize maritime supremacy, even without foreign aid, has this strength. Mark said.
Diana and Monica, on the other side, looked puzzled and asked, "Is there anything else that really interests them?"
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the power of the sea god!" said Diana's mother, Theria's best friend, Mitya. The female magician who saved Diana and Monica at the beginning is currently the most powerful female magician except for the black magician.
"The power of the sea god, can the black mage find it, and even if it does, it can still be given to the British Empire?" asked Diana repeatedly.
"Previously, the Dark Mage captured Witch Island (Clares Island), and after the occupation, he will definitely consult the history of the Witch Wizard Clan. And there's definitely something relevant to that. However, whether it will be given to the British Empire at that time, with the psychology and means of the group of black magicians, I am afraid it is difficult to say, maybe even the British Empire will be controlled by others. Mitya said.
"If it's not hegemony, I think it might be something unsightly for the magician to take it back......" The little princess Monica began to say in her heart.
"Whatever it is, I think it's better to catch them off guard than to come to the door passively. Mark mused.
"I think this little brother is right, you really need to take the initiative at this time!" said Mitya with a wink as she looked at Mark.
Because his back is to Diana, otherwise Diana would really be a little jealous, and she is also an elder, although everyone looks young, but Mark doesn't know that Mitya is already hundreds of years old.
"Then let's do it, and see if there's any way to divide them. Diana said.
"Well, the tone is waiting to be killed, it is better to take the initiative and return to Clares Island now. Mark said.
"Okay, let's prepare, we should ......go back quietly," Diana said, but looking at the island that had changed itself twice, and now being able to go back again, there was an indescribable taste in my heart, just a little more bitter.
The meetings are ongoing.
............
On the other side, on Witch Island (Claris Island), there is also a meeting going on.
But sitting at the conference table were the black-robed men and four or five officers of the British Empire. The group looked around vigilantly, although as officers of the British Empire, they had seen a lot of the world, but the giant snails outside the door that were more than a person tall and the black magicians who were dressed quite strangely made them a group of people who had seen the world a little uncomfortable.
The officer from the British Empire, after forcibly calming down a few points, took out the best gift, two large diamonds of 600 carats!
600 carats, this weight is probably rare in the world. But the black-robed man sitting across the conference table shook his head.
Seeing this, the officers of the British Empire took out another treasure box, a 1,300-carat super diamond that was larger than the two 600-carat diamonds just now.
The black-robed man took out the huge diamond in the treasure box in front of him and played with it with his hand. When the black-robed man took off the hat on his head, he had an extremely bewitching face, a pair of charming eyes that showed water, and his charming eyes were full of charm.
However, after the pair only swept the diamond in their hands slightly, they casually threw the 1,300-carat super diamond to the ground.
A crisp sound cracked. The 1,300-carat 'super diamond' taken out by the British Empire was shattered and turned into more than a dozen ice crystals.
The face of the officer of the British Empire was a little unbearable, because he also knew that it was fake at all, although he knew that these witches liked rare treasures according to the information he had inquired about, and he originally thought that he could get away with it, after all, the price was too high and it was really painful, so let's see if he could make a wave, but this kind of trick of playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong was not taken into account at all.
"Hehe, the lady really knows the goods, come on, come on, this one here must be true. After the officer of the British Empire finished speaking, he took out another treasure box, in which lay an unprocessed diamond, although unprocessed, but under the refraction of the light, the dazzling texture was far from being comparable to the diamonds that had just been taken out.
The dark mage on the opposite side looked at the diamonds in the box, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and after reading it, he conjured up a box and handed it to the officers of the British Empire.
The officer opened the box, revealing a small pill bottle and a dark blue ring.
"I'm going to inspect it!" said the officer of the British Empire.
The dark mage sitting there played with the diamond in his hand and waved it casually. A few dark mages behind him stepped forward and said, "Come with me, several." ”
The officers of the British Empire looked at the swaggering witch sitting there, and their hearts were angry. You must know that in their British Empire, these witches are all going to be burned to death, but they are also gentlemen, so they didn't say much, didn't bother to pay attention, and left first.
When several officers of the British Empire walked outside the house, the box in the officer's hand turned into a poisonous snake and bit it on the wrist, and then several black lights and shadows flashed.
Several blood stains were sprinkled on the glass, and the afternoon sun turned blood-red.
In the room, a beautiful woman was left playing with the diamond in her hand, and a hint of phantom appeared at the corner of her mouth and quietly disappeared.
