Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Chapter 67: Joyce's response

Hunter is not a dull person. As a nobleman's butler, he is no stranger to the struggle between different factions at the top. He didn't ask any more details, but asked the most direct question:

"How long do you need to hide?"

King George III will not allow things to get out of control, which will lead to investigations by the church and even expose his true intentions, so he will definitely choose to step back. Say:

"In a week or two, the danger can be lifted, but I need to take this opportunity to stay away from Bayam's social center and spend some time outside."

Judging from this time, the result should be said to be the winner... But what is the reason for staying for a while... Hunter thought so, and immediately asked.

Joyce answered truthfully:

"Because, I need to act."

"Acting?" Sure enough, Hunter showed a puzzled expression.

"Alfred, you are a Beyonder, right?" Joyce stated.

Hunter was stunned for a moment, then realized that "Alfred" was calling him, so he nodded and admitted:

"That's right, the formula and potion provided by Sir William made me a 'provocateur' of the hunter pathway, Sequence Eight."

Sure enough, every smart noble has the habit of cultivating independent extraordinary powers... Joyce was not surprised by this, he continued:

"But you don't know the 'acting method'."

Hunter shook his head, saying he didn't know anything about it.

Joyce explained:

"The key to potions is not to master, but to digest, not to dig, but to act."

Telling Hunter about the "acting method" was a well-thought out matter... Joyce is not Klein, he has the capital and the ability to cultivate his own forces, and after owning "Zhi Xing", he is even more confident that he will Its control, not to mention that Hunter has already proved his loyalty...

"How was your Provocateur potion digested?" he finally asked.

Hunter recalled:

"According to what you said, young master, I finished digesting the potion about four years ago."

Yes, you are always provocative when you train soldiers every day... Joyce thought, then smiled and said:

"It seems that we have another mission to help you find the potion formula for the Sequence Seven 'Arsonist'."

Hunter declined and said, "It's not in a hurry, it's your business, young master."

"I have one last question. Why does the role need to choose the wharf area?"

Joyce explained: "Because 'instigators' will bring disasters of varying degrees, compared to ordinary people, pirates are obviously more suitable to be instigated objects."

…………

The next morning, Joyce began to skillfully apply makeup.

Seeing this scene, Hunter suddenly felt unfamiliar with this young man who had known him for twenty years.

He asked with a complicated expression: "Master, you are..."

Joyce answered as a matter of course: "Naturally, it is to disguise myself, and the process of acting will not be smooth. I don't want to be wanted by the Navy."

Hunter said, I understand your thoughts, but not your actions,

"Then should I disguise myself?"

Joyce took out a wig:

"It's ready for you, just bring it with you, and make sure you're ten years younger and won't be easily recognized by others."

Hunter touched his thinning hair, but he didn't refute anything, and put on his wig without saying a word.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door.

Joyce turned his head and asked, "Have you told anyone else this address besides me?"

Hunter shook his head and said no.

Could it be Sophia... Joyce thought to himself, raised his guard and asked, "Who?"

"Mr. Baron, it's me." A familiar female voice came from outside the door.

It's really her... Joyce was very surprised, opened the door to let the maid come in, and found that she was wearing a large cloak, hiding her figure well.

"How did you come?"

Sophia took off her cloak, revealing her delicate face below, and explained the reason for her sudden arrival:

"This morning, Mr. Harry was very tired and weak. I asked the reason with concern."

"Who knows that Mr. Harry is also confused. He only vaguely remembers that he had a dream last night. In the dream, a man in black asked Mr. Baron about your whereabouts..."

In the middle of the night, he came to inquire about my trail, could it be Bright... This guy is so reckless, does he plan to kill me?

"Is Harry all right?" he asked.

Sophia replied, "Mr. Harry is fine, he just thought last night was a nightmare, but I felt something was wrong, so I came to inform you."

Joyce didn't expect Bright to be so unscrupulous. He's probably out of danger now. This is a broken jar... It seems that the choice to leave was really right, but fortunately there was no delay...

Joyce thought for a moment and came up with a solution. Since Mr. Major General is so idle, he will put another rein on him.

"Go back now and tell Harry that it wasn't a dream, but that Major General Bright appeared in person... Then let him go to the Church of the Waves immediately and tell Chogory what happened last night..."

Sophia nodded from time to time: 'I understand.

Finally, Hunter asked cautiously, "How did you get here?"

Sophia replied: "I changed to several carriages~www.NovelMTL.com~ I spared a lot of detours, and finally came here, no one should follow."

"Very good, I've grown a lot, go back. Do as I say." Joyce said.

"Okay, Mr. Baron."

After she left, Hunter turned his head and asked, "Master, is the enemy you're talking about the Major General Bright?"

Joyce was noncommittal: "Why else would he want me? Also, call me Bruce, Alfred."

"Then are we safe here?" Hunter asked again.

"Didn't I tell Harry to go to church to sue, it's hard for Bright to have a second chance, not to mention he doesn't know where I am..." Joyce explained.

"Let's go, today I'm going to look for an opportunity to act."

…………

Harry came to the Church of the Waves.

After lining up to enter the confession room, he said softly, "I am a servant of the Baron Joyce Best's house. Last night, Major General Bright sneaked in secretly and asked me where Mr. Baron was, intending to murder Mr. Baron..."

On the other end, the priest was inexplicable: "A major general wants to kill a baron, what's the use of you coming to church?"

"The Lord will use thunder to cleanse the world of all sin," said the priest.

Then, he relayed this to Bishop Chogori, who then reported it to "Sea King" Kottman, and finally reached the ear of Admiral Amelius. He sighed and ordered:

"Arrange a team of soldiers to go to Bright's house to ensure his safety."

Secretary Lu Er'an noticed the problem in the order, his eyes flashed with surprise, and then he turned and left.
