“Mr. Village Chief, I-I’m not a Divine Wizard yet…I haven’t even gotten the qualifications to be a candidate, so you can just call me Vivian.”
From Vivian’s conversation, he could tell that the middle-aged man with deep wrinkles on his forehead was the village chief. He must have heard that the little girl had treated the family just now and rushed over.
“Lady Vivian, we don’t care about this. It was you who saved many people in our village with your brilliant medical skills. You, you are the Lord Wizard in our hearts!
The village chief said as he took a bag from a villager beside him. He wanted to give it to Vivian.
“Lord Divine Wizard, this is a small thank you gift that we have put together.
Please accept it, although it is not much…But it’s also our sincerity!”
Of course, Vivian would not accept it. After a few excuses, the village chief finally gave up.
“Mr. Village Chief, the most important thing now is to tell the villagers as soon as possible not to buy that problematic drink again. If possible, I hope you can send one or two to take me to see where this drink is sold.
Sigh, Lord Divine Wizard, you might not know this, but after the village fell ill, those profiteers all moved away. Now, we don’t know where they’ve gone. We only know that they’re the products of the so-called Divine Wizard candidates.
The village chief was very angry when he said this, and his face was filled with anger.
” The candidate for the Divine Wizard, Akino Sugaya, used some kind of sorcery. Not only in our village, but many young men in the surrounding villages are also infatuated with her, as if they are all possessed!”
“They go to buy that drink on time every day. Some even buy a lot at once. Even if they can’t finish it and throw it away, they still want to continue buying it.
What do you mean by supporting Lord Akino!”
‘ I was curious, so I bought a cup and tried it. Although the taste is indeed a little unique, it’s not to the point where I can’t forget to leave. So I really don’t understand. The young people these days, and Thousand Islands…What’s going on?!”
The more he spoke, the more he sighed. The village chief seemed to have aged many years, but Vivian looked surprised. She quickly asked,”
“Eh? Mr. Village Chief, have you drunk that drink before?”
“That’s right! I understand what you mean, Lady Vivian. This is also what we are troubled about. Not everyone will get that strange disease after drinking it. At present, only a small number of people have such symptoms. That is why when we went to the local survey to complain and request for a thorough investigation, it was ineffective.
The village chief’s face darkened as he spoke. He could more or less see that Vivian was concerned about this matter. She was trying to explain to her benefactor, but she also hoped that someone could change the situation. The village chief told the little girl everything.
“Actually, there are also rumors that those profiteers have already bribed the local three officials. If any village dares to complain and report it, they will attract revenge behind their backs.”
“At first, we didn’t believe it. Sanxing served Lord Gong Si. How could he be taken advantage of by a traitor? But who knew..At first, it was Muyu Village. After the only female doctor in the village discovered the danger of this illness, she began to persuade and resist it. In the end, it wasn’t long before she was taken away by the people who practiced the great ceremony, saying that she was the candidate for the Divine Wizard chosen by Lord Gong Si! ”
‘ Next up is a foreign mine next door. It’s said that the boss is a businessman. They ordered a ban because some of their employees fell sick because of it, but in the end… “It might have only been a week, but the people in charge of the survey seized the factory on the grounds that it was a safety hazard. Not only did they cause the merchant boss to suffer heavy losses, but they also caused many people in the surrounding villages to lose their jobs!
” The White Plume Island got its name because it is rich in a kind of ore called White Plume Stone. The biggest feature of this ore is that it is very stable and will not interact with any elemental magic power. It is one of the main raw materials for producing a kind of magic sealing handcuffs that are widely used in prisons. No accidents have ever happened after many years of mining. The village chief clenched his fists, and his hunchbacked body trembled faintly.
“After these two things spread, no one dared to openly boycott the other party.
However, we are not just going to be trampled on like this! If the local Sanfeng
Sect is corrupt, then we’ll go to the Moon Abyss Island! That’s where Gong Si is. Go there and think of a way to report the situation! Calculating the time…They should be arriving soon. Sigh, I hope Wu Ping can go smoothly.
The little wolf cub in Mei Ji’s arms did not expect that he would actually be able to connect the line here. The Wu Ping that the village chief was talking about should be the man who rushed onto the stage during Akino Sugaya’s performance.
Unfortunately…
Looking at the village chief’s expectant expression, the little wolf cub thought for a moment and did not reveal the fact that the man had already been captured and almost went to jail.
“Lord Divine Wizard, we’re really grateful that you’ve done so much for our village. However, before Wu Ping returns, we don’t dare to resist them on our own. What if they also target our village…”So, I don’t know if it’s good or bad. Because there are more cases in our village, they might be afraid, so they took the initiative to move away first.
“I know you’re kind and you’re a Divine Magus of White Wing Island, just like the female doctor from that village. But you…you must be careful. Don’t be targeted by them! Once you’re labeled as a “candidate”, they’ll capture you and send you to God knows where! ”
After the exchange with the village chief, Vivian finally realized what the young military officer had told them in the last ” cycle “. The chaos that was happening in the Thousand Islands due to the ” selection of the Wizard of Gods
The nobles in the Flame Domain did not dare to snatch women openly because they were restricted by the Knight Regiment and the Fire God Cult. Most of them were bought as ” servants “. However, in the Thousand Islands, they only needed to use a ” candidate ” document to snatch women from the common people without any scruples. This was too…
“Mr. Village Chief, don’t worry. I’m very strong, and…l promise you that soon, whether it’s these evildoers on White Plume Island or the entire Thousand Islands, I’ll…Bring him to justice!”
Vivian’s eyes were firm. The little girl before might have only wanted to get the title of ” Divine Witch ” as soon as possible, but now, she wanted to save the people of Thousand Islands who were suffering and oppressed.
Or rather, when a real…The title of Divine Wizard was not just a pass to the Abyssal Sea.
Mei Ji’s eyes were filled with admiration for this little girl. If she looked deeper, she would find that there were a few traces of confusion. It was only after the little wolf cub in the girl’s arms patted her with its paw to remind her that she quickly came back to her senses with a red face.
The little wolf cub then told Vivian about his situation in the Moon Abyss Island. According to the detailed map that he had obtained from Kondo Naosuke, he found a hidden village stronghold on White Plume Island.
In order not to alert the enemy, the little wolf cub simply groped around and returned. He began to temporarily stay with the little girl in the nearby village, waiting for the meeting with the young military official three days later.
However, on the night of the second day, a red light flew into the night sky and disappeared very quickly. The little wolf cub in the room sensed it and quickly opened its eyes, revealing a surprised expression.
Then he immediately called Vivian and Meggie and headed for a waterway at the foot of the forest.
When they arrived at the appointed place, a familiar burly man stood under the moonlight. It was the young military official of the Grand Fuku Order, Kondo Naosuke.
The little wolf cub continued to look back. Behind the military officers, civilian boats were slowly approaching the shore. Three to four hundred soldiers quietly landed in the night and arrived near the stronghold of White Plume Island.
It was obvious that not only had Kondo Naosuke arrived two days earlier than planned, but he had also mobilized all the men he could from Deep Moon Island!
