Witch Punk 2840

Chapter 219 Unexpected
Back home with Lilian, Xia Ye habitually looked at the crystal ball screen again.

Still haven't heard from Luca.

Counting from the day the two separated, five days have passed. Luca once said that she would tell her in time if there was any news, but so far no news has come.

It seems that finding "volunteers" is not going well?
Let’s send a message and ask.

Just when she was planning this, Luka's message happened to be sent over:

[We have recruited people, do you have time to meet in the morning? 】

Xia Ye looked at the time, it is now 9:[-] in the morning, and originally planned to discuss with Tang Li this morning the communication and positioning of the Strike Witch, but since Luca offered to meet, there must be something that needs to be discussed in person, and Tang Li Li's arrangement can only be postponed.

[At 10 o'clock, meet at "Yuan Ship Rental"? ] she replied.

After a while, Luca sent a message: [10:10 is probably too late, [-]:[-]? 】

【it is good. 】

"Lilian, I'm going out again in a while, and I may not be back at noon."

"Oh, good~" Lilian nodded obediently, and asked again: "What about the afternoon?"

Xia Ye thought for a while: "I should be back in the afternoon."

As soon as the voice fell, the crystal ball sounded a "ding dong" message notification tone. She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Tang Li:

[Sister Xia Ye, can we get together next to you and discuss important matters? 】

Uh……

If things don't come, they don't come, and when they come, they all get together.

"Lilian, it seems that I won't be able to come back this afternoon." Xia Ye said with an apologetic expression.

"Eh?"

"Tang Li came to me and said that there was something important to discuss. I just wanted to talk to her to discuss how to contact the Strike Witch."

Lilian puffed her cheeks a little angrily, but finally said: "Well, it's okay, sister Xia Ye can go get busy."

……

At 10:[-] in the morning, Xia Ye arrived at the "Ocean Boat Rental" on time. Before he landed, he saw a large number of people gathered in the square in front of the building.

"?"

How is this going?It can't be the "far ship charter" that is doing a big sale, right?

She turned twice in the air, and finally found Luca, who was standing in an inconspicuous corner.She lowered the broom and fell towards the position where the opponent was standing.

"Luca."

Luca turned her head when she heard the sound, and when she saw that it was Xia Ye, she nodded to her: "Are you here? The people here haven't arrived yet, so it might take a while."

Xia Ye looked puzzled: "What hasn't arrived yet? Why are there so many people gathered here?"

Luca tilted her head in the same doubt: "You asked me to find them?"

"Eh?"

"They are all people who have come to apply to become cat witches."

"??"

Hearing this sentence, the doubts in Xia Ye's heart turned into surprise in an instant. She turned her head, looked at the dark crowd, and then turned back to Luca: "How many people did you recruit?"

"238 people." Luca answered very precisely, "Because of the short-term notice, there are only about 100 people here, and the rest are still arriving one after another."

While she was speaking, several people flew from afar and landed on the square.

"2, 238... I thought I could only find twenty or thirty at most, and I even thought it would be good to find two or three." Xia Ye exclaimed, "Luka, you are really amazing!"

Luca thought for a while: "It's just basic operations. After all, I've been a debt collector for so long, so I still have some contacts. However, so many people came in the end, which was a bit beyond my expectation. I thought I was only I can find about a hundred of them." Xia Ye: "..."

Damn, it feels like she's pretending.

"...So, how on earth did you do it?"

"After we parted ways with you that day, I immediately went to complete a debt collection commission. After subduing the other party, I told her that if she didn't want to be a pet and couldn't pay her debts, she could consider becoming a cat witch... Then I explained to her by the way Let's take a look at what a cat witch is.

"The other party didn't believe it at first, and said that this must be another trap in the upper city. I heard that the great witch there likes to do human experiments the most... She was right, so I had to tell her that this was the commission of Master Xia Ye. They Last time I went to sea, someone successfully became a cat witch, don't you believe it?
"The other party was a little shaken after listening to it, so I simply took her to the 'far boat rental'. Nana happened to be doing a test. She watched for a while and immediately agreed. I told her, if you know anything else The other person is also bankrupt, so you can tell the other party what you saw today. Master Xia Ye needs a lot of cat witches.

"The other party agreed. In the entrustment for the next two days, every time we subdue a person, we will repeat the same process. By the third day, some bankrupts have come to us and said that they are willing to become a cat witch. Then Later, more and more people came, so I simply held a round table tea party in the crystal ball, and let everyone who is willing to become a cat witch come to the tea party."

tea party?Oh yes……

Xia Ye was stunned for two seconds before realizing that there was indeed this function in the crystal ball, similar to the chat groups in the past world.

"Look, this is it." In order to prove what she said, Luca handed the crystal ball screen to Xia Ye.

"Cat Witch's Round Table Tea Party" was impressively written on the top of the screen, and there was a number "238" in brackets behind it, which should be the number of people in the tea party.

In the chat box, there is a sticky announcement issued by Luca, which is a notice for everyone to gather at "Distant Ship Rental" at 10:[-] in the morning.

"..." Xia Ye didn't know how to evaluate for a while.

At this moment, a new piece of news popped up during the tea party: [The one standing next to Luka, seems to be Lord Xia Ye? 】

[Hey, where is it? 】

[Looking at the hair color, it seems to be true]

[Is there anyone to confirm? 】

……

In an instant, the chat in the tea party boiled up.The corner of Xia Ye's mouth twitched, and immediately after that, an expected voice came from behind: "Please, may I ask, are you..."

Xia Ye quickly adjusted herself to "public mode", turned around, and showed a beautiful and calm smile:

"I am Summer Night."

……

After a few cordial exchanges and an impromptu speech, the girl completely took control of the situation.She stood in the center of the square, surrounded by a circle with a radius of about 2 meters. Outside the circle, everyone crowded together, looking at Xia Ye as if looking at the savior.

"...I am not your savior." Xia Ye opened her arms and said to everyone.

"The only ones who can save you are you. And I just provided you with another way to save yourself."

"Unfortunately, not everyone is qualified to step on this path. Before eating eye pupils, you first need to go through the most stringent screening to determine whether your body meets the most basic conditions required to become a cat witch .For those who fail to pass the screening, we——will report the failure of the entrusted task to the debt collector, and out of admiration for your courage, each person will be compensated 10 Moore. Next, your debt collector may We will re-issue the debt collection entrustment, and hope that you can find other ways to complete your own redemption."

"And for those who passed the screening, congratulations, as long as you eat the eye pupil, no matter what the final result is, we will negotiate with your creditors and let them forgive your debts. You are the ones who are lucky enough to step on this road , but at the same time, I have to tell you honestly—not everyone can complete this path, some people will die in the middle, and only the victors can join us on the journey to the etheric sea..."

Since the development of the matter far exceeded expectations, Xia Ye also had to adjust today's itinerary.The arrangement to go to Tang Li's house in the afternoon was cancelled, but Tang Li was called by her to "far boat rental".

Around noon, all 238 "cat-changing volunteers" finally arrived. In order to prevent accidents, Curran personally led a group of employees to the scene to maintain order.

"It's time to start, Sister Tang Li." Xia Ye whispered to Tang Li who rushed to the scene.

"Ah."

The girl responded, lifted the blindfold, and removed the golden pupils from the sockets.Following a few quick low-pitched chanting, the pupils of the eyes "buzzed" away from the palms of their hands.

A few seconds later, the crowd exclaimed, and a giant golden eye with a diameter of nearly [-] meters appeared in midair, looking down with a sense of oppression.

A few days ago, Tang Li used the "Eye of Reality" to record Nana's physical condition during the process of transforming into a cat. Through comparison, the "Eye of Reality" was able to screen out people who were suitable for becoming a cat witch.

Screening was done quickly.Golden threads of light shoot out from the giant eyes, leaving marks on those who meet the conditions.

——A total of 149 people were eliminated, and only 89 people passed the screening and were eligible to eat the pupils of Shoggoths.
