The Journey of the Demon Hunter
Chapter 280
"What did the emperor promise you, Fairkar! What price did he give you to make you betray the North!"
"Go to hell, you **** bastards!"
Zelin heard a muffled grunt, which was the sound that a soldier would make when the handle of a spear hits his chest. The demon hunter found a good location, and the vertical window sill near the banquet hall just allowed him to jump onto the nearby stone pillar. He kept his balance, squatting on the top of the stone pillar, observing the crowd below.
"Find that elf! She is a traitor. Emperor Enshir has promised the elf freedom and allowed them to establish a country of their own, a state of freedom. This is enough to make her betray us immediately!"
It was a man's voice, Zelin didn't remember that he knew this person. But soon, Philippa's voice gave the answer.
"Where did you find the news, Radcliffe."
"We raided the study of Wigwarts. He was not in it. He must have gone in a hurry, but we found the suitcase in his room, along with a secret letter and a list. Among them was Emperor Enshir to the Squirrel Party assault team. And all the elves’ orders and promises, let the elves fight for the empire, and they can establish a subject nation within the empire’s territory."
Zelin seemed to hear the sound of paper turning.
"Find him, find Wigwarts and Francesca!" It was the voice of Philippa who gave the order. "Take all these traitors to Gastang Palace! Sabina, you and Triss are going to find Wei The trail of Gwartz must be returned when the sun rises. Desmo, go and tell the great teacher, and Ang Jetimtis, tell them that the southern spy has been mixed into the order. Dixcher! "
"I'm here, what's the matter, Phil?"
"Leave a few soldiers to follow Sabina, and let all the other soldiers leave Sinide Island."
"Are you sure..."
"Sure, Dixcher, your mission is complete."
As Tisya expected, when all the opponents were shackled, the sorcerer ordered all those who had nothing to do with the order to leave Sinide Island and return to Goss Willen. Before that, she gave Dixcher a note, and the spy chief looked satisfied.
"Oh ho! List of traitors in collusion with the Nilfgard Empire" the rustle of paper, "Oh ho! Oh ho, oh ho! Beautiful! Duke Nittelt. Great! Baron Baron... Dear Fei Well, can you show me the list of Tamoria and Kovind, just a small glance, just a small glance."
"Enough, Dixcher, you should go now."
Dixcher did not continue to insist. He waved his hand and gave a few orders. The soldiers basically followed him to leave, but in it, Zelin noticed an old acquaintance. Geralt of Livia, two soldiers were behind him with spears against his back, as if escorting him away.
He looked at Philippa and the others who were leading the prisoner towards Gastang Palace, and then looked at the direction the spy chief went out. Zelin thought about it, he slid down the stone pillar to the ground and followed in the direction Dixcher walked out.
Chapter 514 The Falling Griffin
Tracking is not so difficult.
The statues, columns, stone arches and bulging rocks on the surrounding islands of the Luoxia Palace provide a good cover for Zelin. At the end of the sea level, the gleam of the rising sun can already be seen. The moon in the sky was dimming, but the dim light provided better cover for the demon hunters.
He hides behind a statue. Below is the road leading to Goose Willen. Both sides of the road are built to look like gardens. This reminds Zelin of what he saw in Tousent, where cities and gardens coexist. Design.
The group escorting Geralt stopped by a fountain, and the wolf school demon hunter leaned against the Chimera fountain, seemingly about to stop and ask for water. To drink water, those who understand the meaning will understand what it means.
Zelin walked out of the hiding place, his footsteps were very quiet, and the two soldiers behind did not hear any sound. He raised his hand slightly, his own design and modification of the Hidden Blade did not disappoint him, and sharp and deadly short swords protruded from the two cuffs. He leaped down the steps and threw the last soldier to the ground, and the Hidden Blade pierced through the gap in the armor.
The soldier closest to the demon hunter heard the sound, and he saw the shadow. Zelin's speed is very fast, he quickly turned around and stepped over the position of the soldier. The soldier didn't react to what happened for the first time, trying to find the disappearing shadow and issuing a warning, but then, the blood pouring from his throat told him what was going on.
In front, Geralt's hand wiping the water stains on his chin suddenly clenched into a fist and hit Dixcher's chin with a fist. The spy head swayed to the ground, and a nearby soldier who had reacted was stabbed with a spear. Xiang Geralt stabbed in the air, was caught by the opponent and threw it directly into the pond.
Zelin bent over to avoid a sweeping spear. He stepped forward, grabbed the spear, and stabbed back with the strength of the soldiers. A man who tried to attack the demon hunter from behind was caught by his colleague’s spear. Stabbed in the abdomen.
The owner of the spear tried to pull it back. Zelin grabbed the handle of the spear with one hand, raised it with the other hand, and chopped it down. The handle of the wooden spear was chopped by a sharp dagger, and the soldier who pulled it back was lost. Balance and plant it in the flowers on the side of the road.
Two soldiers rushed towards him holding spears. Zelinbi drew out the rune of Alder's seal. He didn't expect the seal to be useful in such a tight anti-magical enchantment, but unexpectedly, the seal worked. The two soldiers flew upside down and hit the soldier who had just gotten up from the flowers.
Upon seeing this, a soldier threw the spear over and did not stab the demon hunter. He drew the long sword from his waist and slashed it at Zelin. Zelin tilted his body delicately and kicked the soldier's boots. The long sword slashed on the steps and splashed a few pieces of debris. The soldier lost his balance and fell forward. The demon hunter swiped his hand from the bottom to the top. The sword pierced the enemy's throat as easily and deadly as the teeth of a poisonous snake.
He heard someone running down the steps behind him, turning around, stretching out the Hidden Blade, and saw Dandrien running down the steps, panting. He runs fast
So much so that when the bard was caught by the sleeve sword on his neck, he realized that there was someone in front of him.
"Hi, wait! I..."
Seeing Zelin's eyes, the bard quickly realized his identity.
"Dandreen? You put your head into the hornet's nest." Zelin retracted his sleeve arrow and glanced at the back of the bard. "What are you doing with so many swords on your back?"
"You're the demon hunter mentioned by Xia Ni and Geralt? You must know which sword belongs to him, right? It's really like escaping from those coups hiding three swords..." Dandrien pointed out Pointing to the weapon behind his back, "Geralt asked me to help bring his weapon."
"I don't know his sword, but you must have taken it wrong. The black sword is mine." Zelin pointed to the ebony blade behind Dandrine. "Give it to me, be careful not to touch the blade. "
It feels good to hold the weapon again, although there is only an ebony blade, but it is okay. After all, there is no monster that needs a silver sword to deal with in Sinide Island. The bard ran down the steps, his face pale as paper when he saw what was happening on the court.
"Geralt!" he cried after a moment, "Hiri disappeared! She is gone!"
"I expected it." Geralt hits some Redanian who doesn't want to get down. "Thank you for coming, Dandreen. I told you yesterday that you should come to Aritoza immediately if anything happens. . Did you bring my sword?"
"I brought it." The bard was tired and out of breath, but seeing the scene before him, Dandrien rolled his eyes.
"Oh, my goodness! What are you going to do? Didn't you see the eagle-shaped sign of Redania? These people are from King Vesemir! This is treason and treason. You may go to the dungeon..."
"Maybe directly on the gallows." Zelin walked over. "It doesn't make any difference anyway."
"It's dismemberment and broken car." The poet corrected, "I was poked by hot tongs..."
"It makes no difference anyway." Zelin looked at Dixcher who was lying motionless on the ground. "You killed him?"
"No, I broke one of his legs. I hope the Redanians have a surgeon in the barracks below." Geralt looked at the weapon on Zelin's sleeve. "What is this?"
"Sleeve sword, it's called the sleeve sword. It's a very practical concealed weapon." Zelin shook his wrist. "Do you need it? It's not too difficult to make, but it's a waste of time."
"Next time, I hope I can order one for Xili. She needs to have a concealed weapon to protect her own safety."
Zelin can only hope that Tisya can control the situation. The Redanians will not get news. The Redanians who are still on standby in the barracks below, at least until the evening, will not understand what is going on here. .
As for Wigwarts, the Demon Hunter thought about the wizard he had met not long ago. He hoped that Philiba could catch Wigwarts. He doubted whether this wizard could be countered by Sunnid. The magic enchantment is completely restricted. He still doesn't know where the badge that was shaking was pointing to, and who is trying to cast a spell on Sinide Island. If it was just a small skill such as Kayla's lighting technique, it would not make the badge have such a violent reaction.
There are three overgrown terraces in Eritusa College, the slopes above are steep and inaccessible. Gastang Palace is located on the hillside. The foundation of this palace is a large black pebble, even, smooth, close to the reef. Only the top floor shone with the light of marble and stained glass windows, and the sun shone golden on the gilded roof slab.
"I'm going to see Hiri, Dandreen, you leave as soon as possible."
"In the name of God, they won't embarrass a bard. But what about you? Either of them will kill you."
"I don't care." Geralt shook his head.
"Be careful, there are at least fifty Ridanian soldiers at the waterfall." Zelin said, "I'm going back to the Los Angeles Palace. I have a chance to meet at Gastang Palace. The Warlock Assembly is in Gastang Palace. No matter what they are planning to do, we will know when we arrive."
Chapter 515 The Thread of Destiny
The Gastang Palace in the distance still looks so calm, but like the endless sea, the surface calm is only because of its hugeness. There is a reason for the convening of the Warlock Conference in Gastang Palace, because of the soundproof enchantment magic. It can stop any argument. At least outside, the mages are polite scholars, waving their sticks and smashing the table, making noise and noise like vendors arguing in the vegetable market, but it doesn't match their image in the outside world.
"I repeat, Wigwarts is a traitor! He is in a mess with Enhill of Nilfgard! He broke the law and betrayed us and the kings..."
Philippa slapped the table with a straight sound, so that she could let her voice overwhelm the doubts of the neutral warlocks, such as Lan Yister's Kaduin.
"My king, Istrad of Kerviel, will not support and take any aggressive actions against Nilfgaard! Kerviel will and will remain neutral now! Kerviel opposes any deliberate initiation of war. ..."
