Chapter 306: Dark Warlock Society
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I've just come here, and I don't know anything about the specific situation, so you want me to come up with a plan, which is too embarrassing."
"At the very least, you have to tell me all the information you have."
Wayne's tone was unhurried, and he turned around and found a place to sit down, sitting across from Grand Druid Mossaker.
The old man probably arrived recently, and the five years have not changed him, and after seeing Wayne look over, the old man also greeted Wayne kindly.
It seems that she is also aware that she is too anxious, but Queen Caranther has never been a person who is willing to admit her mistakes, she bit her lip, and said in a strong tone:
"Let Lady Yennefer and Geralt tell you the details, they have been investigating for several days, and they should have more information than I do."
"However, it should be clear that Pavita is my only daughter, and I must not let her have an accident."
"You don't need to hide it from me, no matter who the enemy is, I will let them know how terrible an angry mother is."
Wayne nodded when he heard this, calculating the time, Princess Pavita had been missing for nearly ten days, and as a mother, Queen Caranthor did have a reason to be anxious.
However, as he said before, being able to go to the Queen of Treants to perform a prophecy spell before coming to Sintra was already the easiest way he could think of, after all, he was not a very smart person except for some knowledge of the future plot, and it was impossible for him to be an unpredictable prophet.
After about half an hour, Yennefer arrived at the council hall with Geralt and a young female sorcerer.
After a brief greeting, Geralt and Yennefer informed everyone of the results they had found.
After listening to Geralt's story, Wayne scratched his chin in some surprise and asked:
"In other words, according to the results of your investigation, a few days before Princess Pavita disappeared, a man wearing a cloak that prevented people from seeing his appearance appeared several times in the place where the princess lived."
"And after the princess disappeared, this person has not been seen again."
"So, that person is most likely a warlock, and he's also the mastermind of the kidnapping, right?"
Geralt nodded, then looked at Yennefer.
When the plump and beautiful sorceress saw her boyfriend looking over, she restrained her originally somewhat distracted expression, clasped her hands on her chest, looked at Wayne seriously, and said:
"Wayne, I've already checked out those places."
"There are indeed traces of Chaos magic being mobilized, it should be the work of the warlock."
"And, from their magic, I feel a familiar smell of darkness."
"Although I have very little memory left of that time, I vaguely perceive that it must be the dark magic that those fallen warlocks used when they were in the fog."
"I think the person who kidnapped Princess Pavita is likely to be someone from the Dark Warlock Society."
"It is very likely that they planned this kidnapping."
Hearing Yennefa's words, Queen Caranther immediately became a little furious, she patted the armrest on the throne vigorously, and said in a rather angry tone:
"I've heard of this organization, it's an evil warlock group that has only emerged in the last few years after the events in the Kingdom of Kodwin."
"I've heard that these bastards mingle with monsters, live in the wilderness, forests, and ruins, always raid villages and towns, kidnap lonely passers-by, and even lead monsters to attack cities in some kingdoms."
"I didn't expect these guys to be so bold that they have already put their hands on the royal family in Sintra."
"Damn, those shitty shitties of the Warlock Brotherhood, who are always arrogant and always defy royal power."
"Now they've caused a mess that they can't solve on their own, and they've put the whole north in trouble."
"I'm going to tell them the news, and they'll send a warlock over and help me find my daughter."
"Pavita had better be okay, or I'll get them in trouble."
Listening to Queen Carranthor's indignant speech, Wayne behaved quite calmly, covering his face, most likely to cover the demon tattoos on his face and the ugly face eroded by the magic of hell, which was indeed in line with the characteristics of the Dark Warlock Society.
However, most of these guys were already delirious when the Demon King Baal was eliminated and the spatial rift in the dark world was sealed again, and they definitely didn't capture Princess Pavita to study the blood of the ancients.
With their intelligence, it is estimated that they will not be able to complete such advanced research.
Then it is likely that someone behind them instigated them to do this, or there is another purpose.
As for the final outcome, there is too little information to make a decision.
"I don't advise you to do that, Your Majesty."
Seeing that everyone else was looking at him, Wayne cleared his throat and continued:
"Princess Pavita, as the owner of the Ancient Blood, is a rather secret matter in itself."
"The people of the Dark Warlock Society kidnapped her, and there is a high probability that this is also the reason."
"If you're going to tell the Warlock Brotherhood about this, maybe their Warlock will be able to help you get the princess back."
"But in that case, this secret will never be kept secret."
"When the time comes, you can only pray that among the many warlocks in the north, there is no one who is mad in order to study the ancient science."
"Otherwise, it will be difficult for Princess Pavita to live her life safely and peacefully in the future."
"In order to get the blood of the ancients, there should be many people who will take risks."
Queen Caranthor's face changed when she heard this, and then she looked at her husband, King East, who seemed to be a little undecided.
Although she is a strong woman and a rare outstanding figure in the Sintra royal family, as a mother, she absolutely loves her daughter very much, and she can't accept that her young daughter is in any danger to her life.
King Easter, as a captain who used to sail in storms, and his own psychological quality was quite good, he did not panic, but sighed, patted his wife's hand, and said:
"My dear, since we've brought in Master Wayne and Master Geralt this time, as well as the help of two professional warlocks, Lady Yennefer and Lady Isa, let's not mess with them."
"Big Druid Mossack will also help."
"Leave this matter to professional people like them, and we just need to support it silently."
"If this matter ends up being difficult and can't be resolved, let's go and inform the Warlock Brotherhood."
………………
After leaving the palace, it was late afternoon, and Wayne and his men returned to the luxury hotel that Xianna had purchased, and Geralt and Yennefer had also moved here.
As members of the Witcher Order, they have all seen the mountains of gold piled up on the top floor of the castle, and they are used to the behavior of nouveau riche like Wayne, and they have gradually enjoyed the convenience and pleasure of the rich.
At the very least, Geralt has never been polite to Wayne in terms of money, and since discovering that Wayne has become an unimaginable big donor, the daily necessities he uses every day have quickly upgraded to the same level as the average rich man, which truly explains what it means to go from thrift to luxury.
"What do you think about this, Wayne?"
"If it's really someone from the Dark Warlock Society, what are we going to do with them?"
Sitting in the lavishly decorated hall on the first floor, Geralt asked with a slight frown in his hand with a glass of high-end red wine in his hand.
Usually they deal with those monsters, although there are some more intelligent, and in general, the wisdom is at the level of beasts.
And spellcasters like Warlocks are definitely the most dangerous enemies, not only possessing all kinds of mysterious curse spells, but even the direct lethality is far more than most monsters.
The fiasco of being besieged by the fallen humans three years ago had cast a shadow on Geralt's heart, and he couldn't guarantee that he would be so lucky this time that he would survive being injured like that.
Wayne saw Geralt's concern, he reached out and patted his good brother on the shoulder, and then said:
"I've figured it out, and I'll take care of it."
"Tomorrow you and Yennefer will stay in the palace and keep Queen Caranthor and Little Ciri safe."
If the main messenger behind this matter is Wigo Fortez, it is indeed a bit dangerous to let Geralt and Yennefer face that guy.
Then the best option is to let them stay in the palace, just to protect the safety of Ciri, although the little girl did not attract anyone's attention for the time being, but no one can say for sure this kind of thing, don't lose Ciri at that time.
Speaking of this, Wayne hesitated for a moment and decided to confess:
"You know, Geralt, I also have ancient blood, so I'm sensitive to this aspect and have a special sensibility."
"There's one thing I think would be better for you to tell."
Seeing that his powerful brothers were so serious, Geralt also asked with a serious expression:
"What's the matter, Wayne?"
Wayne was silent for a second, then said:
"I saw your daughter of destiny at noon today, little Ciri."
"Although she hasn't shown it yet because of her young age, I can sense that the concentration of the Ancient Blood in her body is purer than that of her mother, Princess Paveta, and it can even be said that the existence of the Ancient Blood Blood Blood is the purest of all the descendants so far."
"And according to the prophecy of Her Excellency Esna, Queen of Treants, there will be a child of destiny with the blood of the ancients in the future, who will determine the fate of this world, just like the ancient prophecy once was."
Speaking of which, Wayne took a look at Geralt's somewhat uncertain expression, and then continued:
"Actually, I always thought that the person was talking about me, and I was the legendary child of destiny."
"However, since Ciri also has this special bloodline in her body, then in the future, this little girl will definitely be involved in all kinds of troubles, constantly struggling in the turbulent tide of fate."
"No one else should know about this until her bloodline awakens."
"So you'd better think about how you want to choose in the future."
