Chapter 869 Two Corpses
Harry''s POV:
I struggled frantically in the ck fog and tried to dash out of the crowd, but there was such a crush
of people that it was hard for me to get out. "Joanna! Where are you?" I called out to Joanna loudly.
Unfortunately, I couldn''t even catch a whiff of her scent.
While I was burning with anxiety, the ck mist suddenly began swirling and slowly began to fade
away. Soon, I was able to view everything around me clearly.
I rubbed my eyes and realized that I had been swept to the edge of the trial tform. However,
Sylvia had vanished, and even Laura was gone!
"What''s going on? Where are they? Even the queen is missing. Did Sylvia cast a spell again?" The
onlookers also noticed this detail, and became flustered and more keyed up.
"Let''s get out of here. Maybe the ck witch has nned to destroy this ce!"
The crowd descended into panic and began to scramble again.
My stomach twisted with unease. I quickly tugged at a soldier''s arm next to me and asked in
agitation, "Where are the queen and Sylvia?"
The soldier remained remarkably calm and didn''t share my panic at all. "Calm down. You''ll know
everything soon."
What did he mean? The soldier seemed to know something. Was this a trap?
At this moment, Joanna finally returned to my side and asked in a confused voice, "What''s
happening now? Why did Sylvia and Noreen disappear together? And the ck fog is so strange,
as if it can make people fall into some kind of illusion."
I turned around and asked Joanna seriously, "Did you notice anything wrong just now? I think the
ck fog was Noreen''s trick. I have witnessed it at the border before."
Joanna shook her head when she heard me. "I was hidden on higher ground right now, away from
the ck mist, but I couldn''t see anything. The only thing I sensed was that Noreen dide here
just now, but her scent disappeared in a few moments."
"But why did the queen vanish as well? Sylvia should be Noreen''s intended target." I couldn''t figure
out the reason behind this.
After all, Laura was the queen of the empire and the noblest she-wolf of the entire country. If Noreen
attacked her, she would be the enemy of the entire werewolf race.
Regardless of how arrogant Noreen was, it was still impossible for her to kidnap the queen by
herself. The chances of victory were too slim.
"Let''s wait and see what happens. The soldiers lookposed, which means there shouldn''t be a
problem," Joanna whispered.
About three or four minutester, the queen, surrounded by a group of guards, suddenly appeared
at the other exit.

The crowd broke into a spirited discussion at once, asking the queen what had happened.
Thanks to my height, one nce was enough for me to confirm that Sylvia was not standing behind
the queen.
This was unusual. Why hadn''t Sylviae back with her?
"Do you see Sylvia?" I asked Joanna softly.
Joanna was also sweeping her eyes over the crowd. "I don''t see her. I can only see that the queen
returned alone."
"Did Noreen kidnap Sylvia?"
"Rx. I want to hear what the queen has to say. She seems to know something." Joanna wrapped
her fingers around my wrist and reassured me softly.
I had no choice but to restrain my emotions and wait for the queen to give us an exnation.
The queen walked slowly to the stage. After pacifying the crowd, she said, "I was attacked by a
ck witch named Noreen just now."
A ripple of shock passed through the crowd on hearing this.
The queen gestured with her hand for everyone to remain silent. "Don''t worry, everyone. I''m unhurt.
Noreen, the ck witch, is Sylvia''s aplice. She attempted to save Sylvia just now. Fortunately,
the royal family was well prepared and the two offenders have been brought to justice."
As Laura spoke, she raised her hand and asked her men to bring two corpses up on the stage. One
was Noreen''s charred corpse, and the other one belonged to Sylvia!
