The first thousand six hundred and twelve chapters, the sky under the fire

"I was about to rush to the headquarters of the Knights. I passed by and saw monsters attacking the slums, so I rushed to help. Do I understand magic and this kind of thing is surprising? I am a human, and this is the most important thing. I plan to go back to the headquarters and gather people, but now it seems that this is unnecessary. There are no knights in the headquarters castle to help. I want to go to the old town hall of Vijma. Yes, the southwest corner of Vijma City. In the old courtyard, and then gather knights loyal to me there. I hope you can solve the monsters in Vizima as much as possible. It turns out that we never know where the real threat will come from."

Jaques opened his hands to Zelin.

"Like I said, think about it, if the guards in this city are composed of demon hunters, a group of mutants whose strength, reaction speed, anti-strike ability and actions are far beyond ordinary people, no matter what No kind of disaster will make them fear, no matter what kind of powerful monsters will not make them back down, because they have no emotional weakness, no matter when, they will only use the most efficient means to eliminate the threat, then, there is What kind of disaster can threaten this place? Do people in Vizima need to be worried by the monsters that appear from time to time? No, no, everyone will live and work in peace."

"Yes, just like people are now afraid of warlocks. When they are surrounded by a group of cold killing machines that can kill them at any time and have no emotions, who wouldn't be afraid?" Zelin shook his head. "What is a monster that humans are afraid of, Jaques, what people are afraid of is not specific creatures, but those creatures that have no human emotions, are powerful and dangerous, and have always lived by their side. Your plan will not change anything, you Just creating a group of real monsters! I never think that mutants are monsters, because we have all the emotions that humans have, but when you envision a demon hunter, how is it different from a real monster?"

"People say that you are like rocks, trees, and mountains. Once you look at something, you absolutely don’t want to change. But it’s rivers, streams, and lakes that are planning the land. They know when to move forward and when to stop. When should we gather together, gather strength, and wait for new opportunities." Jaques said. "Faced with various challenges, only those who accept change can survive, right? For example, those elves, they don’t want to admit that the world has changed. Elves wearing squirrel hats cannot win the battle, just like they cannot return. To the past, change history. But they are still fighting, trying to stop the process of evolution. I feel sad for them, and hope that in the future, when the disaster passes, we will not feel sad because of your choice."

He didn't say much, and after speaking, he left the slums. Zelin looked at his back and squinted his eyes slightly. The survivors are rejoicing that they have survived, praising the gods, eternal fire, and knights.

"Zelin." Dandrien came over limpingly, his forehead was covered with a bandage. "Triss's gold talisman did not work against Yavin. Yavin fled again. I don’t know where it was teleported with his magical power that day. You can figure out where Yavin went. Already? If Yavin had an accident tonight, I don't know what Geralt would think."

"Ah, **** it, I don't know how many bad news I can hear today." Zelin held his head and rubbed his forehead vigorously. "I hope he will not throw himself into the sewer, or directly appear in the sky tens of meters high. Do you see me like a warlock, Dandrien? If Yavin still wears the magic gold talisman after teleporting, No one can use magic to locate his location. But anyway, let’s deal with the enemies here first and look for Yavin’s trail by the way. He is a clever boy. When he finds danger, he must know to hide or use magic. Move yourself to a safe place again."

This sounds very strange, Yavin's magic power is so strong that it can break through the limit of magic gold. Many archmages are unable to achieve this level. Triss has always said that Yavin has powerful magical powers in his body, but he cannot control it, which may pose a threat to everyone. Now Zelin finally understood the level of the powerful power Triss had said. Almost every human archmage who could break through the barrier of magic gold had left his own name in history.

"What should I do next?"

"What to do? Jaques is right at least one thing, we must clean up all the monsters in this city, we must have an army." Zelin looked at Vincent who was comforting Carmen in a low voice. "Obviously, we cannot expect the militia of the garrison to solve the problem."

"Maybe you can contact your demon hunter friends to help? You know these monsters and **** them. If you come, the monsters here will be wiped out soon." Dandrien proposed. "And the warlocks in the banquet hall, let them throw a few fireballs into the city, you can burn all the monsters to death."

Zelin did plan to find some helpers, but the helpers he found couldn’t clean up the monsters in the entire city of Vizima in one night. People were dying every minute and every second. The best way is to find a way to control the city. With the army in hand, with enough soldiers guarding the residential areas, they can let go of their hands to deal with the enemies in the cemetery, sewers, and streets. They still don't know where these bugs came from, let alone counterattack while guarding them.

"It's not that simple, Dandrien, and..."

Suddenly, a dazzling fire burst out from the tower of Wang's Castle, and the rumble of explosion echoed under the night sky that Vizima was no longer calm.

"Look! Wang's Castle!"

The rumble of the explosion was accompanied by screams, Zelin raised his head, opened his eyes, and watched the top tower of the castle fall apart in the explosion. The collapsed rubble fell down with the light of the fire and hit the outer wall of the castle heavily. Raise a large amount of dust. The burning tower was like a huge torch, but it was more like a signal.

Afterwards, there was a cry of killing.

On the **** outside the city wall. The knights and soldiers in the fiery red robes raised their shields and brandished their weapons to kill the old city of Vizima that was captured by the Squirrel Party. The elves responded with rainy arrows. Many soldiers fell on the road, but More soldiers broke into the city wall, and the Knights’ siege hammer easily smashed through the door that had been in disrepair. In the fire, the red and green slammed together. They fought at the gate, on the wall, between the lanes and thatched huts, and even in the abandoned Wang's castle. I am afraid that Foltest, who moved the capital to the new city back then, would never have thought that the old city he left behind has now become a battlefield between the Knights and the Squirrel Party!

The first thousand six hundred and thirteen chapters **** night

The banquet hall was shrouded in a **** fire.

No one knows how the attack started. This seems to be a trap. When many royal family members and influential citizens from the north came here, monsters appeared in the hall of the castle that also had an abyss. The private guards of the nobles and the royal guards resisted as much as possible, but it was too chaotic here, and their masters could not find the guards. The guards did not know where their masters were, and they might have become corpses in the hall.

Gnaiya was holding the sword, and when she stepped on a person who was still alive, she was about to rush into the hall to find others.

The garden steps are covered with a thick layer of ivy and honeysuckle, which may be deliberately designed by the gardener to minimize the inconsistency caused by the marble and sculptures to the environment, but this makes the road difficult to walk. , Especially when flames and blood are covered on it, this becomes more difficult. She anxiously looked for a way to bypass the gate, because the heavy castle gate was shrouded in flames and collapsed, completely blocking the way. She tried to push the scrap iron door open with Dragon Roar, but after pushing a gap open, she saw that there were no people standing in the hall. Perhaps the survivors have already left through a secret passage. It is impossible for this kind of building to be constructed without an extra escape route. Even if it is the Embassy of Somo, there will be a cave under the dungeon.

"If this is a conspiracy against the northern royal family, then it will almost succeed." Mei Wei said vaguely. She was sitting on the ground, clutching her scratched abdomen, the blood had soaked the clothes in front of her. Her hair was messy and dirty, and she didn't know where the mask fell, showing the hideous scars on her face. "Whose bodyguard are you, woman? Or assassin?"

"I also want to know, who are you?" Gnaiya coughed twice, rubbing the soot on the tip of her nose. "Are you from the court? Or a guest?"

"I'm Mei Wei, the queen of Leiria and Livia." Mei Wei coughed heavily, and the pain of the tear on her face made her breathe. "If you are an assassin, huh... tell me, who is your employer?"

"If I were an assassin, I wouldn't talk any more nonsense with the mission target." Gnaiya helped Mei Wei stand up. "I'm... a guard, serving for Dole Bretanna's Elf Queen, Francesca Fenbeda. Do you know what's going on inside? Where is Francesca? Others What? What is going on here?"

"What the **** do you want to ask me?" Mei Wei took a deep breath. "I have seen Francesca, but that was before the banquet. Everything was normal until I heard screams from the castle and the torn body of the guard was thrown out of the window. Come out and land in the hall, and then some monsters rushed out and started attacking the crowd. There are also assassins, assassins mixed in the crowd."

"You mean an assassin?" Gnaiya opened her eyes wide. "I didn't see them."

"Because they are hunting down the royal family and nobles at the banquet, cough cough." Mei Wei's face was distorted by pain and turned into a more terrifying appearance. "Damn it! Foltest must give everyone an explanation, why there are so many assassins in the capital of Tamoria!"

"It may also be a gang member who took advantage of the chaos." Gnaiya kicked the corpse next to her. The corpse's clothes still had a gang sign on her arm. "Do you know where the other people have gone? I want to find them, my friends are still inside."

The Dragonborn is not at all worried about Francesca, the wizard’s magic can destroy any assassin who tries to threaten her, and she also has a treasure that Zelin had obtained in another world, a gift from a friend, secret Silver armor. Gnaiya knew that the armor was so powerful, there were not many weapons that could break the armor. Originally, the Dragonborn was very unhappy, she did not get such an important gift, but after trying it once, she gave up the idea, because the mythril armor was still too tight for her, even inferior to the ordinary leather breastplate More comfortable, but will affect her fighting.

She worried about Yusevka.

Under such chaos, doctors are the most vulnerable.

"I know..." Mei Wei hesitated. "I don't know. Everyone has escaped. The Wang's guards don't know where they are guarding, or they are all dead. I heard the sound of fighting outside, I guess so. The two armies are at war. Can you smell the blood in the air? I know there is a place that should be safe. The head of Temoria knows that it is a refuge, right in the trade zone. I see you have two swords on your body? You can **** me there."

"No, I must find someone else first." Gnaiya refused decisively. "If the assassins have gone after others, then you are the safest to hide here."

"Are you crazy? Enemies and monsters are everywhere here, and your master may have evacuated other people." Mei Wei said in disbelief. "I understand that loyalty is a noble quality, but...be careful!"

The rumbling behind her made Gnaiya turned sideways, the window sill of the castle behind her was knocked open suddenly, and a monster over two meters tall broke out and fell heavily into the garden. The monster's arms were hanging on the ground, like a huge lynx, with sticky blood and flesh left on its hammer-like palms, and the red hair on the back of its head was like tentacles hanging on its shoulders, under the soaked blood. Screw them together. There are still some fragments of clothes on the monster's body, but no matter where it is seen, the dragonborn cannot link this creature to humans. The monster’s blood-red eyes swept across a messy courtyard with wisps of black smoke. In the end, his gaze fell on the only human standing in the courtyard. Then, it split open the mouth that almost splits the face in two, exposing Mouthful with sharp teeth, roaring demonstratively.

Gnaiya raised the sword in her hand and stared at the monster that suddenly broke out with vigilance.

"Be careful, this monster attacked the banquet hall." Mei Wei supported her saber and supported her body. "It shredded four heavily armed guards in the blink of an eye."

"I see." Gnaiya paced cautiously, keeping a proper distance from the monster. "You leave quickly and stay away from here."

"No, this is the safe place."

A familiar voice came from the direction of the banquet hall, and the two broken doors blocking the exit of the banquet hall burst into blue light. Entangled by the azure magical energy, they rose slowly, revealing the figure of Kayla behind. When it rose to more than one meter, a hot fireball whizzed past and hit the monster in the courtyard. The burst of flames instantly enveloped the monster.

Francesca walked out slowly.

"This is enough, Gnaiya, help your Majesty Mei Wei over here, we need to go to a safer place!"

The first thousand six hundred and fourteen chapters of the inner devil

"Enid!"

The Dragonborn glanced at the female warlock who suddenly appeared, and then quickly cast his eyes on the monster shrouded in flames. The fireball is very powerful, and the monster staggers out of the flame. Francesca didn't pay attention to Gnaiya's cry, she raised her hand, and before the monster could react, the elf's lips moved slightly, and her fingertips burst out orange-red fireballs again. The monster tried to evade, but it was overturned by the blast of the fireball. After rolling on the ground several times, it hit the courtyard wall before stopping.

This time, the monster reacted.

The moment it hit the fence, it rolled and climbed up, leaping like lightning, and pounced on the female warlock standing on the steps, like a stone thrown away. But Francesca did not show any panic. She stepped back and made a simple gesture in mid-air. The aggressive monster suddenly hit some kind of transparent wall in mid-air, and Gnaiya could almost hear the sound of his head hitting the solid air. The monster fell down, fell on the steps, and rolled all the way down. It slowly wanted to get up, seeming to be knocked out.

When the flames gathered in the heart of the elf's hands again, the dragonborn blew a whistle.

This monster was dead. Under the two flame attacks, its body was scarred. The original indigo skin became scorched. She was sure that it only needed one flame to completely kill this monster. The creature that emerged, Francesca was planning to do so, and the magic power of the Archmage was enough to support her to complete the blow.

"Wait!"

Dark green dust suddenly burst out between the monster and the female warlock, and the magic in Francesca's hand was like a flame in the violent wind, and it went out with a pop. The monster took the opportunity to get up and jumped onto the nearby wall. Francesca was choked by the dust. She coughed twice, stepped back and prepared to condense fireballs to attack the monsters on the wall again. However, under the influence of the dust, her flames were no longer hot and dangerous, as if only Campfire on the side of the road. The monster took the opportunity to jump off the wall, jumped to the other side, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

"What the **** are you doing, Geralt?!" Kayla turned around and asked in disbelief. "We almost killed that monster!"

"You don't know what that monster is," said the white wolf. He stepped over a **** corpse and walked to Kayla.

"I know, of course I know!" Kayla waved angrily. "This is a man who killed at least seventeen humans, including five guards, four nobles and four servants, and the remaining four unidentified victims because their bodies were torn up. We I can't even determine which ones are the corpses of several people. Tell me, Geralt, facing this monster, can't we kill it?!"
