Chapter 1356: Chapter 980, Even 2 Princes Won’t Do
Witch!
In the records of the Hongwen Alliance, they are defined as mysterious, wise, and strange spellcasters.
Besides using strange magic, they can also gain protection from some secret deities or powerful spirits.
And this protection is different from a Priest’s faith.
It is not a blessing from the Divine Spirits but rather a form of protection and warning.
Viola sensed an inexplicable danger. Cold sweat trickled down her forehead, yet her eyes remained vigilant of the surroundings, ready to escape at the first sign of danger.
However, after being on alert for a few seconds, this sense of crisis gradually diminished, and then completely disappeared.
Viola slumped into a chair, feeling her back drenched in cold sweat.
"What’s going on?" Viola muttered softly.
Then, she speculated on the source of this sense of crisis in her mind.
The Holy Court, the Crown Prince, and past enemies.
After thinking it over, only one person could have startled her so much.
She had already escaped from him several times.
Damn it! Has he come to Chelu?
It can’t be; the Holy Court swore he couldn’t leave Gold and Silver Island, so it shouldn’t be false.
"He better not be using the Prophet to track me again!"
"How did I get involved with him."
...
Tavern.
The dim candlelight illuminated the room. Wu Heng hung up the phone and used the Mansion Skill to take a bath inside.
When he came out again, the four Ghosts had already returned.
Glenda hovered above the oak desk, her semi-transparent fingers guiding a pen to sketch fine lines on the paper, gradually forming a highly detailed city layout map.
"Everyone’s back?" Wu Heng draped a towel over the chair back.
"It’s just you taking it easy," Lady said irritably.
Xiao Xiao spun around and pounced in front of Wu Heng, excitedly saying, "Uncle! I saw that witch who can turn into smoke. She’s in a house in the inner city."
"Her!" Wu Heng instantly remembered that person.
They had crossed paths a few times, and her ability to escape left a deep impression on Wu Heng.
She could turn into smoke and escape directly, unhindered by the terrain.
In previous encounters, this method allowed her to escape.
"I wanted to peek at the letter she was reading, but then she suddenly looked up!" Xiao Xiao gestured, "It gave me a fright."
"Could she perceive you?" Wu Heng raised an eyebrow.
"It didn’t seem like she could perceive me; it felt more like she sensed some danger and spoke to the air," Xiao Xiao replied.
"It should be a characteristic of her profession," Wu Heng nodded, then added, "No need to worry about her right now; she poses no threat to us."
In the past, this witch could still threaten him.
But now, the threat is minimal, nothing more than her ability to escape.
We just need to be careful not to let her escape again.
"I know, I’ll just leave directly," Xiao Xiao said.
"Great job, Xiao Xiao." Wu Heng gave a thumbs up in praise, then looked at Glenda, "Is this the city’s map?"
"The structure is somewhat similar to Lundham City," Glenda moved the map forward and said, "There are three parts in total. The core area is the Royal Palace and its affiliated institutions, the inner city comprises Guard Team buildings, the Alchemy Guild, Church Court Square, and noble mansions."
"The Outer City Area is similar to ordinary cities, with residential areas, shopping streets, and some markets all located outside."
Wu Heng nodded, acknowledging that the layout was indeed similar to Lundham City.
Lundham City also has three areas: the inner city, outer city, and outside the city, only with a different naming convention here.
Moreover, it seemed to emphasize hierarchical divisions, as only nobles and important institutions were qualified to enter the inner city.
Ordinary people could only live in the Outer City Area.
"Did you see the Crown Prince?" Wu Heng continued to ask.
"Yes, I saw him in the Royal Palace. He looks just like the portrait drawn by the Princess," Glenda said.
Bella then remarked, "I wanted to go to the church in the city, but I felt a sense of repulsion when I got close. I was worried they would notice, so I didn’t force my way in."
Wu Heng nodded, "Were there any other high-level professionals?"
Glenda continued, "This city is too big, and we could only make a rough tour at this time; we’ll need to stroll through the city to spot all the high-level professionals."
Lady chimed in from the side, "Actually, there’s no need to bother. They’ll definitely hold meetings at the Royal Palace; if we go there, we can see all the important people at once."
"Lady makes sense," Wu Heng nodded.
She didn’t have ’Spirit Vision’ and couldn’t see the levels of professionals, so identifying high-level professionals would still require Glenda and the others.
"Alright, tomorrow we’ll keep an eye on the Royal Palace," Glenda then asked, "What’s your plan?"
Wu Heng said, "The Fifth Princess is on her way, we’ll decide when she arrives."
"As long as you have a plan," Glenda said.
Wu Heng suddenly thought of someone and said, "Oh, right, the leader of the Flying Fish Pirate Group I arranged earlier, keep an eye on him too."
After all, he is a friend of Philippa’s and has been arranged here for some time now.
"I forgot what he looks like; I’ve only seen him a few times," Xiao Xiao remarked.
"He’s called Babuzzi, has a somewhat square face, and looks quite simple," Wu Heng said.
"Oh, okay!" Xiao Xiao nodded.
The other two Ghosts nodded as well.
Wu Heng continued, "You all can move about freely, wander around the city if you’d like; I’m going to rest first."
"This isn’t Gold and Silver Island, everyone goes home to sleep at night," Bella said from the side.
Xiao Xiao also said, "Uncle, give me the tablet, let’s watch a movie!"
Wu Heng took out the tablet for them, then dried his hair and returned to the back room.
Just as he lay down, the opening tune of a cartoon played in the outer room.
