"How do you know this place?"

Standing at the entrance of an alley and looking at the familiar tavern not far away, Damon Salvatore's eyes widened... He was sure that he had not revealed any information or information about the traveler's station to Catherine, but

The strange thing is that Catherine led the people to find him accurately.

"You have known for a long time that those travelers are stationed here?" Damon tentatively proposed another possibility. Only this can explain everything in front of him.

"This is natural. You have to know that no one in this city can hide the detection of the witch guild. The only difference lies in the length of time it takes to search and the amount of energy spent. Travelers are a group of very smart mice, so searching

They're in a little trouble," Catherine replied with a smile.

"With all due respect, if you had found them a long time ago, why did you wait until now to deal with them? What's more, I still have a little doubt about the success of this operation. I can't let Stefan

If he is hurt in any way, even if he will always be a careless and out-and-out little bastard in my heart." Damon waved his hands and looked at Catherine seriously.

"As I said, they are a group of well-hidden rats, always on the move. It's hard to find their whereabouts. If they weren't in this city, they wouldn't be able to change all the time.

Depending on where they live, they may have already escaped by the time we got here."

As she said that, Catherine smiled brightly at Damon: "We'll wait here. Just leave everything to Winter and the others."

"Is this city special?" Damon Salvatore looked around at the buildings.

"As long as you live here for a while, you will know how special this place is. This is one of the cities with the strongest control of the witch guild. To put it bluntly, as long as you are still in this city, your

The witch's 'eyes and ears' are everywhere around you." Catherine said softly.

Under Damon's gaze, more than a dozen agile vampire figures turned into afterimages and rushed into the door of the bar. Two or three wizards, including Winter, followed closely behind. Damon's sharp eyes discovered that,

Anji, who had met him once, was actually among the first group of vampires to break in.

"Is it really okay to let a young child like Angie participate in such a battle? Those travelers are still a bit tricky." Damon pointed to the direction of the bar door, turned to Catherine and said.

"No problem. The vampires in the witch guild are very different from the external vampire system. The most obvious point is that the vampires in the witch guild pay more attention to discipline and hierarchy. Even if Anji is in any danger, there are people around her.

There will be other vampires who will help her escape. We know the protection here very well.

Travelers don’t dare to enter this city on a large scale. What’s more,” Catherine raised her head and looked back at Damon: “Don’t underestimate Angie, although she is only fifty years old, it’s time to become a vampire.

She is only close to thirty years old, but her strength is not weak at all. She has a good mother and a good grandmother."

"Order? I thought vampires were all undisciplined, and only knew how to get into trouble and have fun." Damon curled his lips: "How did the organization you belong to win over this group of unruly vampires, and how did they win over them?

How can they be willing to give up their passion and self-esteem and work hard?"

"You can't deny that Damon, even a vampire, has a lot he wants. And the witch guild can give them this. Isn't Stefan's bloodthirsty healed yet? If we meet again this time, I can help

He will solve this problem." Catherine said softly.

"Did you know that Stefan has bloodlust?" Damon suddenly dropped his eyes on Catherine's face. Stefan's bloodlust only occurred after becoming a vampire, and by that time, Catherine had already left.

.But now Catherine easily told Stefan's symptoms. It was obvious that she had been paying attention to them secretly.

"In the first few years, I did pay attention to you secretly." Catherine said calmly, "It wasn't until I joined the witch that this attention faded away."

"What can it give you? To make a woman like you willing to stay in an organization?" Damon looked at Catherine in confusion.

"**, and, survival."

Catherine's answer was somewhat beyond Damon's expectations. She continued: "Neither you nor Stefan have ever understood me, or I have never let you understand me. I have a disgraceful and dark past."

You get along very happily, but happiness is always short-lived for me. I have offended a big shot, and he will retaliate. I have been hiding from him for five hundred years, and he almost drove me crazy."

"So you joined this so-called coven?"

"Yes, because it can give me shelter, nourish me, and live happily and happily. I am not afraid of that person now, even if he is standing in front of me, I have nothing to fear. I have long been

She is no longer the poor woman who was deceived, used and even taken away from him hundreds of years ago, but was unable to resist." Catherine said with a calm face.

Damon didn't know what to say for a moment.

The battle in the tavern ended quickly. When Catherine and Damon stepped inside together, the several travelers staying here were already standing with Winter and others in a strange state.

"Hello, Damon."

When they saw Damon entering, Malai and Lysa even raised their hands and greeted Damon cordially with smiles on their faces.

"Is this also your arrangement?" Damon looked at the calm-looking Marais and Lysa, and then looked at a few familiar faces of travelers. He suddenly felt that his thinking was stuck in an intractable problem. Then

It's just that he doesn't understand what all this is about!

There is no doubt that Marais and Lysa hate the coven and are firmly against the coven. When they came into contact with Damon, Damon could feel this strongly from the two of them.

Emotion. But under the current situation, the two Malays still greeted him like old friends, and even ignored the people from the witch guild next to them. Damon couldn't understand it.

Were they acting from the beginning? Were they undercover agents placed by the Witch Guild among the travelers? It didn't look like it from the looks of it.

First of all, if Marais and the others were undercover agents placed by the Witch Guild in the traveler group, today's operation would be unnecessary.

"It's just a very effective magic." Catherine looked at Winter, who was holding the wand. "The Imperius Curse can control people's spirit and thinking, allowing a person, or any creature, to act according to the wishes and orders of the caster.

Act. Even if he is unwilling to do something, he cannot resist. To put it simply, he is like a puppet with strings. What actions he takes are completely decided by the person who controls the strings.

."

"I have never heard of such bad magic." Damon looked at the smiling Marley and Lysa opposite, and his face twitched slightly. Although Catherine said it lightly, but just listening to the explanation,

It can make people shiver all over.

"There are many similar magical witch guilds." Catherine replied to Damon in a perfunctory manner, then turned to Winter and said: "Ask them to share some information, especially about the traveler's plan this time, and also

There is the whereabouts of the anchor that leads to another world. These are all useful.”

"This may require a strong Veritaserum. Travelers are a bunch of freaks. It's hard enough for me to keep the Imperius Curse in effect. Damn it, I have to keep casting it just to keep it up.

The best effect of the Imperius Curse." Winter's face looked very ugly.

"They are a group of people who are good at playing with their souls and brains. It is not difficult to guess that they are difficult to control. Take out all their secrets, as well as their personalities and habits, and then we will always have a way to replace them." Catherine calmly said

said.

…

"Well, we should get ready. Has the vampire hunter they mentioned been brought here?" Tang Bai moved his eyes away from a large ornately decorated floor-to-ceiling mirror in the corner, which reflected what happened in the tavern where Catherine was.

The process of all events. After dispersing the power lingering above, Tang Bai stood up and asked.

"On the way to be escorted here." Witch Lilia replied.

Lilia, who is over a hundred years old, still looks as beautiful as when she first met Tang Bai. Time seems to have left no trace on her body. She and Cleese stood behind Tang Bai with their hands hanging down.

"Patterns, that's a problem." Tang Bai raised his arms high, leaned back slightly, stretched out, and lowered his hands.

"We can decipher it quickly." Lilia said confidently.

"Are you ready for the sacrifice?" Tang Bai asked again.

"I used death row prisoners to convert enough vampires, enough for the hunter to show all the patterns on his body." Lilia nodded.

"Then, prepare to go to that island. Trouble will always have to be solved one day." Tang Bai turned to look at Lilia and ordered: "Prepare ships and manpower. Even if you can't solve the problem this time,

If the travelers are completely destroyed, at least they need to be severely damaged."

"What if, what if they shrink back?" Lilia spread her hands, "They are always so cautious and annoying. It's hard to imagine that a group of people who like to do things in secret and by various dark means would dare to confront each other head-on.

Let's have a head-on battle. If they had the courage, they wouldn't have been hiding in hiding for decades."

"There will come a day when they can't hide. Judging from the current situation, they are also aware of this." Tang Bai waved his hand. (To be continued.)
