Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 159 Set sail
Adele and her friend carefully returned to the room, but were shocked to find Sophie lying on the bed, the porthole was open, and a cold wind was howling in the room.

"what happened?"

Adele was horrified and hurried to Sophie's side. Seeing that she was still sleeping soundly, she felt relieved.

"This porthole doesn't open by itself..."

Vinata looked at the porthole, reached out with a serious face, and pulled down the raised porthole.

How could a drop-down window be blown open by the wind?

Adele turned Sophie over and took the opportunity to examine her palms. Something seemed to be slowly disappearing there, the pads on her fingers were slowly blending into the skin, the nails that had grown longer were slowly retracting into the fingers, and the webbed fascia between the fingers was also disappearing.

Sophie had the characteristics of many demons at the same time. The demonic power had already begun to erode her body. She was gradually turning into a real demon...

At this moment, the dark cloud gradually dissipated, and the crimson moonlight fell again, shining on Sophie's body. Adele felt that the temperature of the small body in her arms rose rapidly, and in a blink of an eye it was as hot as a piece of charcoal. The disappearing symptoms reappeared, and this time they were more powerful and faster!

"Pull up the flap!"

Adele reacted quickly, hugged Sophie and rolled to the center of the room, while Vinata immediately stepped forward and pulled down the window shutter to block out the spiritual crimson moonlight.

Sophie's body stiffened for a moment, then softened again, the abnormal condition gradually subsiding.

"It seems that the moonlight seems to trigger the activation of Sophie's demonic characteristics." Vinata breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Sophie's symptoms subside.

"But the demon's abilities don't seem to be related to the moon, and Gagran didn't warn me about it."

Adele was a little confused.

"It's too early to discuss this now." Vinata pointed at Wendy who was standing beside her. "She's still here..."

"...That's true." Adele looked at Wendy carefully for a while and sighed. "Let's take turns to keep watch for the next few days. It's best not to involve irrelevant people."

Silent all night.

The next morning, when Adele, who was on second shift, just woke up, the whaling fleet was about to set off.

Wendy had left the room early and was on standby in the engine room.

After receiving the captain's order to sail, she immediately started the engine. Steam roared and poured into the half-open intake valve. The long horizontal pistons rose and fell one after another, making a ping-pong sound, pushing the main shaft rocker. The propeller blades continuously slapped the sea water and continued to accelerate. The "Little War Horse" ironclad ship slowly left the port, surrounded by six functional ships.

It was exactly seven o'clock in the morning. The Little Warhorse was sailing along the low yellow coast of Constantine. The lights of the city were left in the southeast, and the whaling fleet was moving at full speed across the sea.

At this time, Adele did not wait for Wendy to come back in the room, but washed up and left the room. This trip was not something unexpected, but part of Adele's plan. However, the servant this time was not Vinata, but the boatswain Wagner who was eager to show off.

Adele learned from her dream divination that Wagner, as the boatswain, played a crucial role in the rebellion. It can be said that he was the one who planned the rebellion. Therefore, whether she drank the witch's potion or killed him directly, Adele would not feel any guilt.

Now, at Adele's request, he was diligently introducing the curious lady to the equipment room that passengers were not allowed to enter. As the most luxuriously equipped whaling ship, the equipment on the Little Warhorse was definitely complete, from hand-throwing harpoons to guns that fired barbed arrows and shrapnel for shooting wild ducks.

Adele believed that the equipment on this ship alone was enough to organize a team capable of conquering a tribe of a thousand people on the southern continent.

But soon these will be mine...

As Adele's mentality changed, she gradually discovered some interesting things.

A vulgar sailor like Wagner had almost never heard of the teasing techniques between men and women popular among the upper class of Loen. Even without the witch's charm, an ordinary, sociable Loen lady could manipulate him in a few words.

Compared with the last time, Adele did not even deliberately use her appearance to her advantage, and did not have even the most basic physical contact with the other party. However, Wagner was even more infatuated. Adele realized that if she ordered him to jump into the sea to please her now, he would most likely do it.

I see, this can also give me positive feedback...

Adele smiled, occasionally covered her mouth with her hands and chuckled elegantly, echoing Wagner's words. She had already put on lip gloss, and her psychologically suggestive words were like spider silk, slowly and firmly binding Wagner's heart and establishing Adele's position in his heart.

The witch's charm, when used in conjunction with some extraordinary spiritual abilities, can even achieve the effect of "command" after a period of subtle influence.

Watching Wagner's ugly dancing in front of her and listening to the vulgar jokes between sailors that he had racked his brains to come up with, Adele smiled on the surface, but her heart became deep and she began to think about her next plan.

Next, these sailors would probably drive their ships away from the main channel, perhaps for the sake of whaling. It is estimated that at that time, the turmoil would begin.

I don't know when we will encounter a whale next, so I have to plant the seeds of evil thoughts in the sailors' hearts as soon as possible these days... After all, this fleet has seven ships. Although in Vinata's eyes, it is not a big problem to deal with the sailors on these seven ships, but these will all be cheap labor in the future, it would be a pity to kill them all.

Adele thought about it for a while, then waved her hand to stop Wagner from talking. Wagner seemed to be suddenly stuck by the neck, and his mouth opened and closed, but no sound came out.

"Take me to see your accomplices."

Adele smiled slightly, "Don't ask me how I know... This is your master's business."

Wagner's body shook violently. His eyes gradually became confused, and the color of his dark brown eyes kept changing, eventually forming a rose-shaped spiritual mark deep in his pupils, which was proof that he was completely controlled.

Then he clenched his right fist and hit his left chest in a rather funny salute.

"...As you command, mistress."

(I’m stuck, oops - I’m going out for a walk. The last chapter will definitely be out today, and I’ll finish it before 10 o’clock. Those of you who are in a hurry don’t have to wait any longer)
