Chapter 240 The more you show your strength, the weaker you appear (please subscribe)

A week passed in a blink of an eye. Just as the Iyetta seaport was developing rapidly, in a secret basement in the royal capital of Hadratah, William was shaking the scarlet wine glass in his hand and listening to the reports of his subordinates.

"Sir, the fleet you sent to explore the Sea of ​​Mist has returned. According to their description, the fog there seems to have changed. The visibility is much higher than before, and the wind and waves on the sea seem not to be as bad as before.

So powerful..." A tall and thin man knelt on the ground and respectfully told William the information he had investigated.

For sailors like them who often run boats at sea, they are all too aware of the terror of the foggy sea. When the fog is thickest, the visibility is even less than one meter!

This means that on the same ship, sailors can only see themselves surrounded by a strange white mist. They cannot see the ship under their feet, let alone their companions. The only thing they can feel is

I am drifting along with the rocking of the ship, heading deeper into the fog!

Anyone can't help but have the illusion that they are heading to hell.

But this time it was different. The three fleets that went to explore the Sea of ​​Mist were originally prepared to sacrifice. In the end, they all came back alive, and they brought shocking news. The Sea of ​​Mist

The fog seems to be slowly dissipating, and visibility in the fog now exceeds six meters.

Listening to the report from his men, William's eyes narrowed and he paused while shaking the wine glass in his hand.

"Sir, is there something wrong with the wizard's land?" The tall and thin man asked cautiously.

"It's very possible..." William's mind was racing with thoughts.

During this period of time, the boatmen who were stranded in Iyeta have been sent back one after another, and most of the reports reported to him were about how rapidly the Iyeta seaport has developed, and they were so complimentary that they even

It began to make him wonder whether these people were under the influence of strange visual witchcraft, or were lying to deceive themselves!

"Sometimes, the more deliberately you show your strength, the weaker you become..." A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of William's mouth.

From the descriptions of the boatmen, he also discovered an important piece of information, that is, a civil strife broke out in the wizard city of Greenriel not long ago, and Linn made great achievements in that civil strife.

Became the leader of Ietta Harbor.

The current situation in the Sea of ​​Mists is probably related to that civil strife.

The reports from those fleets now undoubtedly prove this. The other party changed the trade from sea transportation to the use of air and space airships just to cover up this!

"Lord William, what should we do now?" Cody couldn't help but asked.

William's eyes flickered and he didn't respond for a long time.

This news is undoubtedly very important, and I am afraid it cannot be hidden for too long.

The scope of the Sea of ​​Mist is so large, and the conditions on the sea are so harsh and changeable. Almost every year, fleets will accidentally enter it. If you are lucky and do not go deep into it, and do not encounter a storm or the eye of death, there will be a slight chance.

Able to come out alive.

This year's situation is different. Since their fleet can return safely, others must be no exception.

All it takes is an opportunity, and people's fear of the Sea of ​​Mist will be completely broken.

He could think of what would happen next with his feet. The Holy See would never let go of the opportunity to completely eradicate these wizards!

William's expression changed again and again. He was unwilling to give up the huge profits brought by trade every year, but he also knew that once the war started, the Wizarding Land would most likely be destroyed.

After all, if these wizards had the ability to compete with the Holy See, otherwise, why would they be hiding on a small island outside the mist?

The confidants gathered in the basement were also whispering underneath.

In the Sekas Empire, everyone knows how terrifying the Holy See is. Their past work for Heran Ram was based on a situation that was sufficiently concealed and safe.

Now there are some huge changes in the wizarding land. Even the most important barrier, the Sea of ​​Mist, is disappearing. This has to make them think differently. Some people even suggested reporting the news to Cardinal Losark.

grown ups.

If they can follow the clues and even lead the Holy See's fleet through the foggy sea to find the island, then they can make great achievements, enough to offset the merits, and even obtain a title and become a powerful grand duke.

This temptation made the balance in William's heart slightly shaken. On one side was the huge profit of thousands of imperial gold coins every week, but it could overturn at any time.

On the other side is a reward from the Holy See, an opportunity to no longer have to hide and become a great noble of the empire!

William kept shaking the wine glass in his hand. The scarlet liquid in it fluctuated just like his mood. "Cody, do you know how many wizards Mr. Lynn has transported by airship in recent times?"

What are they doing when they arrive at the royal capital?"

"As for the transportation of goods, a man named Lauder is now fully responsible. Lord Linn does not allow us to interfere. Even the servants who stay in the manor are restricted for various reasons.

, so their number and composition are still unknown until now. I only know that each shipment will be separated by about three to five days."

Cody spoke hesitantly. "In addition, they have taken over part of the glass trade and now seem to be in contact with some nobles."

William sneered. It seemed that the new controller of Iyeta was not ready to trust him at all. The wine glass shaking in his hand paused, and then suddenly William drank the scarlet liquid inside, coldly

said.

"Send more people, starting today, to monitor their movements in the royal capital, and find out for me what these wizards want to do! Also, I need to know everything they do in the manor, so just

In the name of the profit sharing negotiation before, send someone in to take a look!"

"I understand!" Cody responded, lowering his head.

"Lord William, do you need to make an appointment with the Cardinal first?" A boatman with a deer-headed and rat-like eye suddenly asked.

"No, now is not the time!" William shook his head, he did not have enough chips in his hand.

The compass that could locate the wizard's land has been taken back by Linn, which means that they have now lost the ability to find the island on the sea.

If there is not enough merit to offset the previous 'mistakes', then after losing its use value, the final fate will be obvious!

So now they must get more information, at least confirm when the airship will stop in the manor, and there will definitely be a way to locate the wizard's land.

It would be great if we could take advantage of this time to make a cut with these wizards!
