Chapter five hundred and thirteen small transparent helplessness
"Let her go!"
Seeing Francesca's hands cuffed by the magic gold, Tisaya couldn't help but raise her voice, "How could you do this? Don't do this to her!"
"She is a traitor."
"I do not believe!"
Philippa looked at the most beautiful woman in the world and said coldly:
"Emperor Emhyr promised to give the elves freedom and their own independent country. Right here, on this land. Of course, everything must wait until all humans are slaughtered. This alone is enough for her to
Betrayed us without hesitation!"
"After all, blood is thicker than water..."
When faced with such serious accusations from fellow warlocks, Tisaya was even more excited than the accused herself:
"Answer quickly! Answer her question, Francesca!"
Obviously, she did not believe that the elf sorceress she trusted was a traitor.
However, her trust was not reciprocated.
"Valley Daisy" Francesca used a calm and melodious voice, paired with obscure ancient language, raised her chin slightly, and arrogantly refused the opportunity to defend herself:
"I, Enid, have nothing to say to humans."
"Are you satisfied, Tisaya?"
Philippa growled in a low voice, "You should believe me now, right? To her, you, me, everyone, are human beings. And she has nothing to say about human beings."
After saying that, she turned to look at another warlock who was kneeling beside her, "What about you, Fekat? What did Wilgefortz and Emhyr promise to you to make you choose to betray?"
This warlock, who is an advisor to the Temerian royal family along with Keira and Triss, is very courageous and directly cursed:
"Go to hell, you dirty slut!"
Philippa, who was severely insulted, did not signal her men to punch him like Keira did. She just sneered and ordered:
"Keira, Radcliffe, take these traitors to the Gastang Palace! Desmo, go with the high-ranking sorceress De Vries, I will come later."
After that, she pointed at Lu Qi, the little transparent guy who had been silent all this time, and ordered:
"You stay."
Hearing this? Lu Qi couldn't help but turn his head and look at Keira.
Facing the man's black eyes, Keira couldn't help but take a step closer and whispered:
"Listen to her. Will you follow them to Luo Xia Palace first? When the matter is over, I will go find you."
Although he really wanted to follow everyone to the Gastang Palace in the center of the island to watch the whole process of the warlock coup at close range. However, Lu Qi also understood his identity and status and it was impossible to participate in the subsequent trial of the warlock traitors.
.
While feeling regretful in his heart, he did not forget to nod his head and replied:
"I see."
Watching the group go ahead, Philippa turned around and said in a deep voice:
"Dijkstra."
"I'm here? Fei."
"Your men are no longer needed here. They can return to Luoxia Palace."
"But..."
"Go back to Rocher Palace, Dijkstra!"
"Yes, sir." The burly spy leader said with a hint of sarcasm. "The villain resigns. Our work has been completed. Now is the warlock's private business time..."
"Sorry, Dijkstra? Thank you for your help."
This little quarrel between the couple did not attract much attention? Perhaps this is the unique way the two get along...
Standing aside? Lu Qi only saw the sorceress walking up to the witcher and whispering something to him.
Using his extremely keen perception, Lu Qi still vaguely heard something:
"You didn't see anything..."
"...You didn't talk to Vilgefortz...Losha Palace...this is over...I will go find you."
The only thing the witcher cares about is one thing:
"Where's Yennefer?"
"I think he is possessed." Di Pang said in annoyance: "Ignore him, Fei, you have other important things. Did you find anything at Wigefortz?"
"Found it. Take it..."
As she spoke, the sorceress handed a rolled-up piece of parchment to the spy leader.
Along with the rustling sound of the paper roll unfolding, there was also Dijkstra's voice full of surprise:
"Oh my God, that's great! Duke Nitet, and..."
"Careful! Don't mention names, and don't start executions as soon as you return to Tritog (the capital of Redania)."
"Don't worry, the guys on this list will be fine for the time being..."
Even if the two of them lowered their voices, Lu Qi could still get certain information from a few words.
Come to think of it, the parchment in Di Pang's hand must be a list of traitors within the Kingdom of Redania who secretly colluded with the Nilfgaard Empire.
After the discussion, Philippa seemed to remember someone she had forgotten, and raised her chin in the direction of Lu Qi, "By the way, Dijkstra, bring him with you."
"as you wish."
...
Having completed their mission, Redania's group, together with a ranger from the far east and a demon hunter without any equipment, walked down the mountain, along the stairs of the winding path, towards the Luosha Palace.
The banquet in Arethusa is still going on.
Listening to the laughter coming from his ears, Redania's spy chief smiled scornfully:
"Look how much fun they are having, witcher."
"These people can't imagine that while they are playing, the Council has almost taken over the entire Wizarding Council and is trying them on charges of treason and liaison with the Nilfgaardians. There are also those who have found hidden corners,
Wilgefortz will be hanged when he starts doing that kind of thing. This world is really strange..."
Not wanting to hear Di Pang's victorious remarks, Geralt turned his head directly, looked at Lu Qi aside, and asked:
"You already knew?"
Hearing this, Lu Qi just shook his head and said truthfully:
"No, I just found out about it not long ago."
The inexplicable conversation between the two surprised Di Pang and couldn't help but ask:
"Have you met before?"
"The first time we met, we chatted a few words at the banquet."
Lu Qi's answer made Di Pang feel a little reassured.
Of course he also saw the two of them chatting and eating together at the banquet.
Asking like this is just to test the relationship between the two...
Arriving at a terrace, the spy leader came to a wall decorated with stone Chimera heads, approached the stone statue's mouth, and let the dripping water flow into his dry throat.
"Witcher, you must be thinking, why should I take you away together instead of letting you stay up there to save your beloved Yennefer..."
"I hope you don't have a crush on me..."
"Haha, of course not. I got you out because I needed your help for something."
"I can't think of anything I can do for you."
"Stop pretending to be confused! Although Margarita, the principal of Aretusa, will not hand over Princess Cirella of Cintra to me, I am not willing to conflict with her. But as long as you speak,
If so, she won’t refuse.”
"How could you have this ridiculous idea that I would speak?"
"It's ridiculous for me to think that you want to ensure the safety of Cirilla!"
As the two of them chatted, Lu Qi, who was standing aside, had only one thought in his mind after hearing the familiar name:
Chapter completed!
