Chapter 1441: 1413 Shocking change!
Chapter 1441 1413. Shocking change!
The winding path leading down to the Palace of Luo Xia is carved into the hillside, and the terraces are covered with a combination of natural growth and horticultural vegetation.
Dijkstra quickly walked to a terrace and stopped slightly in front of the team. It was a wall decorated with rows of stone gryphon heads.
These heads are flowing water, which can be regarded as a fountain landscape.
Redania's chief spy put his head under the gryphon's head and took a sip of water.
Because Dijkstra did not delay the team's progress, Lan En did not stop him.
The witcher looked further down the terraces, where some Redanian soldiers had already arrived at the Rosha Palace holding torches.
They were forming a single file, crossing a stone bridge over a crack in the ledge.
By now, it should be around five or six in the morning, and the originally dark sea surface is also slightly glowing with a reddish golden light, making it a little brighter.
But a dark cloud slowly twisted and gathered over Xianide Island.
Lan En looked at the dark cloud, and his eyes that were just a little unhappy at first gradually darkened.
"Are you still angry about our actions?" The spy chief looked at Lan En's face and said tentatively, "I apologize for this again, sir. But I don't inform you because the most important thing in our business is to be cautious. ”
"Coups, riots, secret arrests. If you are not careful, nothing will happen."
Dijkstra has confirmed through previous contacts that Lan En should actually agree with their "internal purge" approach.
It's just that the situation always seems too complicated before it becomes clear, and it is also mixed with the troubles of undercover agents and everyone's thoughts.
Dijkstra didn't know what Philippa was planning, and whether she wanted to "incidentally" clean up dissidents through this internal purge.
After all, he couldn't read the sorceress's mind.
But from his personal perspective and purpose, he has no major conflict with Lan En.
Because of this, Dijkstra is actually very upset now.
If the conversation with Lan En at the banquet had been more open, maybe they wouldn't be in such an awkward situation now.
But it's just 'annoyance', far from the level of 'regret'.
After all, what he should do was to catch the traitor among the wizards, and Dijkstra thought he had done a good job.
The magic-blocking golden shackles were grasped accurately, and those traitorous warlocks were destined to be unable to stand up.
There is only one thing left to consider.
"That girl," Dijkstra wiped the water droplets from her mouth and suddenly whispered to Lan En, "are you going to place her in Aretuusa?"
"Don't look at me with such a scary look, sir. I just suggest you think again out of practical and rational considerations."
"Vezmir and I don't want to argue with you or the warlocks at all. It would be best if we could discuss it."
"Geralt is legally the guardian of that important young lady, but now everyone knows that it was you who pulled the girl out of the big blood pit in Sintra."
"As long as you ask, Aretuza will definitely agree, and Geralt and Yennefer will definitely think more about it, right?"
Are these thunderclouds used by wizards to control the weather? Or is it the method known as the ‘Heaven Controller’ among druids?
Next to Dijkstra, Lan En seemed to have become accustomed to the thunder clouds and lightning.
He didn't even tilt his head to take a look at the lightning strike point next to Thanede Island. Instead, he suddenly widened his eyes and looked at the stone griffin head that Dijkstra stretched out his head to drink water just now!
The stone statue appears to be moving.
But in Lan En's eyes, it was clearly visible that it was not the statue that was moving, but the illusion covering the griffon's head that was fluctuating!
They become pitted for a while, from delicate and smooth stone carvings to rough stones, and then return to their original shape again.
Just like the huge stone bridge in Aretusa that had just been repaired not long ago, it was the traces of the sea breeze and the salt in the wind that eroded the stone.
After all, Aretusa has been built for a long time, and all aspects need to be repaired. Although the money for repairs is no longer an issue, the repairs themselves take time.
The bridge is urgently needed, so it is naturally the first to be repaired. The gargoyles on the wall are naturally very far back in the list. Currently, they are still covered with large-scale illusions to protect the dignity of the mages.
And Lan En also knew very well what this clear, fuzzy, and clear fluctuation meant—the standing magic covered on the statue was being disturbed! Becoming unstable!
Gastang Palace!
Two seconds after the thunder fell, Lan En, who observed the changes in the stone carvings on the wall, immediately reacted and looked up towards the top of Xannide Island!
It happened almost at the same time as he shifted his gaze!
"boom!!"
The huge and solemn tower, flames and thick smoke sprayed out from every window, door, and even the stone gaps in the stone tower!
It was comparable to the sound of thunder exploding on the sea just now!
It's just that the explosion of thunder can be said to be the sound of the natural environment, and it didn't attract many people's attention.
But an explosion! The flame explodes! The surging wind and hot air echoed through the gaps in the buildings!
These terrifying sounds are transmitted from the highest point of Thanede Island to the entire sea!
Even the stupidest person wouldn't say this is a 'normal sound'!
Magic is an unnatural force! This is an unnatural explosion!
The explosions and flames from the Gastang Palace are still spreading all the way to the outer sea.
Redania's soldiers and Dijkstra were completely stunned by this sudden turn of events.
They looked up at the Gastang Palace as if they had seen a ghost.
"I'm coming! I'm coming, meow!"
The flannel ball's voice was mixed with the sound of explosions that spread farther and farther, rushing up from the bottom of the terrace where Lan En and the others were currently!
The kitten shouted and ran, and it could be heard from the sound that it was approaching quickly.
If it is calculated based on the fact that it rushed up from the secret cave of Xianide Island, then the time when it set off was basically when the thunderclouds started to gather just now!
