No. 76 closed the door, isolated herself from the hustle and bustle in the tavern hall, and then sat down opposite Agatha.
She knew that once she left the witches in the Kingdom of Wolfheart, she would be more likely to be exposed, but hiding her identity was no longer a priority.
"I thought you would take me to a deserted corner." Agatha looked around the compartment and said, "I didn't expect it to be this kind of place."
"The tavern has always been a good place for exchanging information and bonding, my lady." No. 76 poured a glass of ale for her. "I hope you won't blame me for not providing a more elegant environment for negotiation. After all, I've only been in Neverwinter for two days."
Since there was no need to worry about exposing her identity, the tavern could obviously lower the other party's guard to some extent. It was safer to talk in a crowded place than in an empty street corner or alley. Although both of them were not afraid of the cold, if a stranger suddenly appeared and wanted to lead the other party to a more desolate place with just a few words, she would not easily agree.
And the most important thing was that she had no hostility toward either Neverwinter or the Witch Union, so there was no need for her to take the initiative to put herself in the enemy's position. Previously, she had hidden her identity just to find the Chosen One. Now that there was a better way, she naturally would not act according to her original plan.
Now, both the common people and the witches were facing the same enemy, and the danger was imminent.
"How did you find me in only two days?"
"Your workplace, the time you returned to the castle, and the way back to the castle... I could ask the witches in the Kingdom of Wolfheart about the first two things from Vendy, and the latter from the local people." No. 76 briefly explained the process. "After knowing that you've become a member of the Witch Union, I decided to take the initiative to contact you."
"I see." Agatha looked at her with burning eyes. "So, there are other witches of Taquila who survived?"
"You can think of it that way, but we are no longer witches." No. 76 knew that the only reason why Roland was willing to contact her was because of the news about Taquila, so she did not hide anything from him. "Bodies can't be preserved for hundreds of years, so we can only use another method to keep our compatriots alive. For example, the body you're looking at now is that of a God's Punishment Warrior from the church."
"You mean … not only do you control this body, but you can also activate the God's Stone Realm?"
"Yes, this is also Lady Alice's ultimate goal — to fuse a witch and a mortal into a Scourge who can fight against demons. Losing more than half of the blood won't cause the witch to die immediately. As long as the soul is transferred to the body in time, the perfect extraordinary warrior will be obtained."
"I knew her plan wouldn't be that simple." Agatha was silent for a long time before she finished the ale in her glass. "But from your tone, it seems that the other survivors don't agree with this plan? Also … what is your purpose for coming here? "
"Before answering this question, I want to ask you something very important," No. 76 said in a low voice.
"Go ahead."
"Have you told the Witch Union about the demons, the Battle of Divine Will, and the Union?"
Agatha nodded.
No. 76 suddenly showed a trace of excitement. "What about them? Did they accept this statement? "
"Not only did they accept it, but they are also ready for the third Battle of Divine Will," she replied. "In fact, not long ago, the Witch Union fought with the demons and killed a Magic Slayer and four Fearsome Demons."
No. 76 could not help clenching her fists. Everything was as she had expected. Agatha had indeed revealed this information to the local witches. In this way, the Union and Taquila had become natural allies. She no longer needed to hide her identity and could get straight to the point.
Although the latter part of No. 76's words was also thought-provoking, and she also wanted to know where the witches of the Witch Union met the Senior Demon before the Bloody Moon came and how they defeated it, there were more important things to talk about now.
No longer hesitating, No. 76 told Agatha about the fight between Natalia and Alice and the Chosen One plan from beginning to end. "Now the witch who can activate the Natural Moat Instrument and wipe out all the demons is in the Castle District. I hope you can help me find her."
Agatha was also a little stunned. "Is there really someone who can do this?"
"Lord Theo told me so." No. 76 took off the ring and handed it to Agatha. "As long as someone exerts his ability, he can see the orange light that symbolizes the 'key' through the Colorful Magic Stone."
Agatha pursed her lips, took the ring and looked at it for a while. "I think you should talk to the Lord of Neverwinter."
"Of course, I'll explain everything to Vendy... Wait." No. 76 was stunned. "The Lord of Neverwinter? You mean... the local leader of the common people? "
"Yes, Roland Wimbledon, the common man who looks ordinary and even a little reckless." Somehow, Agatha smiled. "He's the core of the Witch Union."
No. 76 frowned. "I don't quite understand... what you mean."
"I was just like you at the beginning." Agatha returned the ring to No. 76. "Later, I gradually realized that without Roland, the Witch Union wouldn't exist, Neverwinter wouldn't be what it is now, and Graycastle wouldn't be able to defeat the church. Everything started with a common man. If you want to find and take the Chosen One away, you need to talk to Roland in person instead of explaining the situation to Vendy. "
"But..."
"Don't worry. He knows more than you think." Agatha chuckled. "Do you know what he said to me when I woke up from the Ice Coffin and learned that the Union no longer existed? "The common man can defeat the demons." "
"Isn't this a little too —"
"Arrogant, isn't it?" She interrupted. "I thought so at first. But in fact, I saw hope in him, and the other witches in Neverwinter firmly believe in him. So if Taquila wants to cooperate with the Witch Union to fight against the demons, you have to get Roland's approval. "
No. 76 doubted her ears for a moment. If Roland was a wild witch, it would be understandable for her to agree with the common man's power. After all, after more than 400 years of changes, it was no longer the era when the Union ruled the continent and witches were superior. But Agatha was a Taquila witch through and through. Why would she trust the common man so much? This trust was far more than recruiting a common man as an experimental assistant!
Although she had the task of contacting the secular regime from the beginning, she did not expect it to be carried out in this situation.
No. 76 put away the ring and was silent for a moment. "Please let me think about it."
