The Journey of the Demon Hunter

Chapter 1386

"I can assure you, Zelin." Tishaya shook her head: "The Warlock Order has never studied this aspect. This involves the Demon Summoning. The Order has been hunting down the Demon Summoner."

"And the means to control the demon hunter only needs charm eye ointment and a blown kiss." Xier walked to Tishaya: "In this regard, Enid did a very good job."

"She doesn't need to fascinate me, even if it is, it is impossible to fascinate me for so long." Zelin folded the manuscript and stuffed it into the inner pocket of his jacket: "I want to clean this place. I don't want anything that shouldn't be there. Things flow out."

Suddenly, Zelin lowered his head.

The telescope in the jacket pocket cooled.

"What's the matter?"

"News about Enid." Zelin took out the telescope: "Strange, she rarely used this to contact me directly in the past, when I didn't cross the portal."

Opening the telescope, Francesca's projection appeared in front of the demon hunter.

"Zelin, can you hear it?" Her voice was very small, as if it came from a very far away place. "If you can hear it, hold out your thumb."

Zelin stretched out his finger: "I can hear. What happened, are you in trouble?"

"I heard you went to Eritusa Academy. How is the academy?" Enid's gaze noticed Tisya next to Zelin, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh, Tisya, see you well. It’s good to be fine. The cult sent me a letter today, and they said that you are in trouble."

"There is indeed a problem, thanks to Zelin, it has been resolved." Tisaya chuckled slightly: "It's nice to see your country escape the flames of war, Enid."

"Thanks to Zelin, too." Enid sighed: "Zelin, Gnaiya brought me a message, and she got a letter."

"What letter?"

"Hiri is back, and Ain... Wild Hunt is still hunting her."

Chapter 2277-Xili Departs

"Are you leaving?"

In the swamp of Willen, Xiri moved the belt on his shoulders to fix the long sword in a suitable position to ensure that it could be drawn out at any time. In the temple built of thatch and logs, Gwendelin dropped her hands and looked at Xili, who was moving her shoulders: "You can stay here. It's safe here. The demon spirit knight will not enter this place."

"I have an appointment, Your Highness." Xili tidied his neckline: "He needs help and is in trouble. He helped me in the past, and I can't help but go back to help him. He is cursed, and it seems that things are getting worse and worse. Bad."

At the beginning, Gwendelin knew nothing about Hiri's identity, and Hiri was also wary of the strange-looking Gwendelin. She always wanted to find a way to leave, but Gwendelin's attitude towards her puzzled her. Until a wild hunting knight chased here. Gwendelin remembered what Zelin had told before leaving. Although this borderless land will not be affected by external constraints, there may be a group of demon spirit knights here. If they appear, defeat them and tell him about it.

After that, Hillary learned that Gwendelin was Zelin's friend, and that so many things had happened in Willen's land before Geralt was captured by the wild hunt.

"Did you run into trouble when you left here to Seviron the other day?"

A few days ago, Ciri left the Whispering Swamp and went to West Willen to find Avalak's laboratory. As a result, when she came back, she happened to be chased by the Wild Hunter.

"No trouble, it is his laboratory. There are many traps left in it, but those traps recognize me and will not actively attack. He has already been there once and left me a message." Take out an exquisitely crafted wooden box. The lid of the wooden box is a slanted quadrilateral, narrow on the top and wide on the bottom. The **** is carved with exquisite tree and rattan patterns, and there is a black gem on the top. "I don't know if this can help him. This is Eredin's box, which is said to absorb the power of curse. But this thing...I don't know how to use it, and how to let him release it. The spell on Valak."

Avalak put on a mask in the illusion in Willen's laboratory, which is not a good sign. It was revealed to Xili in the illusion that he found a female warlock in Willen, but he did not ask Xili to see the warlock. But even if he asked for it, Hillary didn't want to do it. She still remembered why Geralt and Ye Naifah left the world to Avalon at that time, she didn't like the members of the Sorcerer's Hall at all.

"Where are you going? There were many warlocks seeking refuge here yesterday, why not ask them?"

In the open space outside the temple, the apprentices of the sorcerer gathered in twos and threes. They were exhausted physically and mentally after fleeing, Margarita was comforting them and arranging their residences and resting places. The children in the orphanage looked at these uninvited guests curiously. War and famine have caused many children to lose their parents, or families have long been unable to raise smaller children without labor. So half a year after the war broke out, almost all residents in nearby villages sent children who could not be raised here.

"I asked Margarita." Xili shook her head. "But she doesn't know much about the spells of ancient races, and she can't leave here in order to take care of these students."

"Who can help you?"

"I'm going to find Uncle Zelin." Xili shook the box in his hand: "I originally planned to go to Novigrad to find Dandrien. He is a bard and Geralt's friend. He knows what he saw. There must be a lot of people. But I think Uncle Zelin has seen more magic, and he can reach his castle in only two days along the Ponta River. Do you think he should be in the castle now?"

"I met his friend Ganya last month. According to the time she said, Zelin should be resting in the castle now." With that, Gwendelin handed a letter to Hiri: "If you go Zellin Castle, please give this letter to him." His speech speed was very slow, as if he had to consider the word order in advance for every sentence he said, every word. "Here are the recent things about Willen, news about the demon spirit knight, and some personal things about me."

"Letter? No problem." Hiri nodded: "Damn, I hope Wild Hunt has learned a lesson not long ago. I can't stay in one place for too long, and they will find it soon. Thank you for your help."

"You can actually stay here forever. I will write a letter to ask your friends to come to you." Gwendelin suggested: "You can also let your friends from the mage come here, although I don't know why the curse... ...Hehe. I don’t know what kind of curse your friend has suffered, but I believe that there are many people and there must be a way."

"Sorry, I can't contact him now." Xili shook his head: "I won't stay in Uncle Zelin's castle for too long. I don't know if he can do it, but his castle is close to a small town, hunting wildly. I don’t care about civilian casualties. I’ll leave immediately after I’ve asked other people to prevent Geralt’s incident from happening to other people.”

"I understand." Gwendelin raised her arm: "I will give you shelter. May your road become smooth, young female knight."

"Thank you for your kindness, your highness, although I am a demon hunter." Xili shrugged.

In the afternoon, Xili riding a bay red horse left the swamp. But she didn't notice. A farmer in the village outside the swamp noticed the white-haired woman. After sunset, a fleeing farmer named Hantrek heard the news in the tavern. The next morning, along with the departing Ciri left Willen, there were soldiers in black riding fast horses, and a secret letter looking forward to King Vizima's castle.

The efficiency of the man in black is very high, no one dares to delay such an important letter, otherwise the price must be a twisted rope.

At sunset the next day, this letter appeared on Emperor Enhill's desk.

"She is indeed back." Enhill leaned on the mahogany chair, his hard back pressed against the thick fur shirt: "Sorceress Ye Naifah is in Vizima. Let her come to see me."

"Including a letter of pardon, Your Majesty?" Morfan put his hands behind his back: "As far as I know, when she left Hidaris, she was involved in a battle between our army and the Tamorian army. She killed A warrior from the Alba Division was killed and some soldiers were killed or wounded."

"That was an uncontrollable accident."

"What if she refuses? Will soldiers be allowed to resort to coercive measures?"

"No." Enhill shook his head: "I will give her a reason to refuse."

Chapter 2278 Tracking by All Parties

"Please go over here, ma'am."

Vincent Mason straightened his chest and beer belly and cleared his throat heavily. After the surrender of Vizima, the Nilfgaards did not have enough manpower to control such a vast occupied area, so many municipal officials and clerks during the Temorian period remained in their original positions. The only change was from observing Thai Moriah's law was changed to report to Chief Nilfgaard. He doesn't like this thing very much, but there is no way. He needs this job and has a wife to support. And with this position, he can at least guarantee that his friend will not die in the hands of the Nilfgaards.

Ye Naifa walked into the palace, and the slits on both sides of the skirt faintly revealed the hollow pattern on the thighs of the top of the black boots. The always serious Nilfgaard guard couldn't help but glanced at it subconsciously, until he entered the royal palace. The heavily armed guards blocked their way.

"The emperor has an order. Ms. Ye Naifah of Van Geborg has seen it." The guards looked directly at the visitor: "The rest are not allowed to enter."

"I see." Vincent nodded, turned around and made a please gesture to Ye Naifa: "Please come in, ma'am."

"When will we be able to meet?" The man wearing a felt hat crouched and stood in front of the gate of the inner corridor. "We have been waiting here for two days. We are the emperor's loyal servants. Why are we not allowed to meet?"

"I have been there for three days. I am the president of Maribo's guild, how can I hang me here?" Another person said unwillingly: "The Maribo people have been looking forward to the arrival of the emperor. As a result, the emperor Does your majesty refuse to meet their representatives?"

There was a grunt in Vincent's throat. When Foltest was still there, these guild leaders declared themselves to be loyal subjects of His Majesty the King. As a result, before the Nilfgaards arrived, they had already contacted the emissaries of the Empire and instigated the city. Of merchants and craftsmen surrendered. He didn't know what Emperor Enhill had promised to them, maybe it was the position of mayor, but now it seems that the emperor doesn't trust these people either.

Under the solemn gaze of the Janissaries, Vincent turned and left the palace gate.

The temple area is still dirty and muddy everywhere. The only difference from the previous one is that the Meritelli Temple Hospital was closed, and the medicinal garden next to the hospital was hung with the bodies of several nuns. The Nilfgaards forbid any beliefs other than the sun god, and those who refuse to convert will be hanged. There is a new gallows on the square in front of the headquarters of the City Guard, where anyone who steals, robs, stays out at night, arson, kills, or refuses to hand in military supplies will hang on it.

Just after walking through the temple, he saw his wife Carmen standing in front of the inn on the outermost periphery of the temple area, looking out.

Seeing Vincent's figure, Carmen hurried over.

"You are finally back!"

"What's the matter, dear?"

"The windows of the house were broken." Carmen was a little frightened: "Someone threw stones at our house this evening, and the glass was broken."
