The Journey of the Demon Hunter

They walked up the steps. Most of the original residents of Yinlu Inn were the sorcerers and wizards of Eritusa, and only these wealthy spellcasters could pay the expensive price here. Eritusa Academy often invites famous female warlocks in the world to teach in the academy, but now, this coup has killed many mages and warlocks, and the remaining alive basically escaped with teleportation spells. The hotel has become much empty now. The doors of some rooms were still open, and the people inside walked in a hurry. There must be a lot of people who sent them here directly, and then fled with their luggage.

Marty's medical level is good, and her spells and potions have allowed Gnaiya's arm to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In Margarita's room on the second floor, Zelin told her roughly what had happened on Sinide Island. Although she didn't know why she could not find the wizards who had been sent here to inquire about the situation, but seeing the unfinished wine bottles on the bedside table, it was estimated that the female wizard had soaked herself in the wine all night.

"Coup, no wonder Tisya is going to block Sunidee." Margarita rubbed her temples. "Is it the dispute that the king's advisers in the north provoked first? Then the southern empire? Damn, why the whole world is awake after waking up? It has changed, I must have drank fake wine."

"I think you drank too much." Zelin said unceremoniously. "What do you plan to do next? Only Tisya is the only member of the council."

"I must protect the college and my students." Margarita said. "They haven't learned how to protect themselves. I must protect them."

While Marty was treating the Dragonborn and Zelin was talking with Margarita, loud footsteps came from the window of the Yinlu Hotel, and the sound came from the other end of the street. It was a group of iron boots stepping rhythmically. The rattling sound on the ground with stagnant water.

Zelin walked to the wall, leaned against the wall and looked out through the gap in the window. I saw a group of well-trained soldiers gathering on the streets without people. They were neatly dressed in blue clothes and iron helmets, and their chests were embroidered with the white lily badge of Tamoriya.

"It's the blue iron guard, Foltest's special forces."

"This is normal. If something like this happens, Foltest has no response. I'm really sorry for the number of spies he sent to Goss Willen." Margarita sighed, and subconsciously stood aside. Wine glass, but suddenly remembered that it’s not the time to drink. "When you plan to leave, I will prepare a carriage for you. It can safely take you away. A carriage covered with phantoms will not be watched by anyone. To you."

"Thank you."

"You don't need to be polite. Raise your hand." Margarita nodded, and then she paused before she said, "I know you have a castle in Mahakam, and Mahakam is the domain of the dwarf elder Hogg, in the north. The nations will not enter there forcibly, so...please, Tishya is very dangerous now. If this coup is as dangerous as you described, the kings need a scapegoat, one that can be pushed to the surface and to the trial bench. Come up and set up a model of prestige for them."

"So what do you mean?"

"I don't know if Tishaya can solve the trouble by her alone." Margarita shook her head, indicating that she was not optimistic about doing this at all. "I hope you can persuade her to leave Sunnider when you are in danger. Island, take refuge at Mahakam. Tisaya has devoted her life to the cause of magic. She is not a person who will run away in the event of failure." The dean pointed out the window, "Look at the blue iron guard Up."

"Okay, I understand what you mean." Zelin closed the window. "I will wait at the hotel for two days." The demon hunter hopes to wait for the news from Francesca. He doesn't know where the elf warlock is now. But she shouldn't stay on the island, especially when the seagull tower collapses and the factors affecting the teleport coordinate disappear.

"But what about you, if Tisya disappears from everyone's eyes, only you stay on Sinide Island?"

"Don't worry, I don't participate in politics, but the influence of the college is enough to protect itself."

"Then I can only wish you good luck."

The army in the city is gathering, maybe Tishaya has the ability to support a cult, maybe she can only drag it for a while. Zelin could only hope that under the pressure of the southern empire, the northern countries would first focus on dealing with foreign enemies.

Maybe the coup still happened, but in terms of the results, or it’s not too bad for the demon hunters, Zelin originally hoped to get the support of some of the wizards and warlocks in the order, but now, the pillars of the order are only Tishaya was left alone, and Wigwarts, who was on the southern side, could not get the support of other northern warlocks, whether they were the king’s adviser or the middle legislator.

Next, no matter whether the demon hunter's academy can return to the level of Kyle Morhan back then, at least, they will not face the pressure and threats from the sorcerer cult. Although Zelin didn't want to think this way, she was really sorry for Tisya who devoted her whole life to the order.

That night, Marty repaired Gnaiya's arm wound as before, and the level of magic treatment was much better than Zelin expected.

"Thank you for your patronage. A total of two hundred and twenty Oren. For the sake of our acquaintance, two hundred will do."

"Value for money." Zelin handed a bag of coins to the therapist. "What are your plans next? Continue to stay in Goss Willen to open your clinic?"

"I... I don't know." Marty lowered his head. "Maybe you can stay here as a school doctor at Eritusa College, or go to Novigrad to open a new clinic. After all, it is the City of Freedom. , I think the influence of the king will be greatly reduced in Novigrad."

"If you are interested, I hope you can come to Mahakam's Demon Hunter Castle. You know, we need a warlock who can master the stability spell. And I know a hermit who is proficient in herbal medicine." Zelin thought. Regis met in the necropolis, "maybe you would be interested in talking to him."

"Thank you for your invitation. I will find time to visit Mahakam."

Chapter 525 Funeral Songs of the Times

Zelin could also wait a few days on Sinide Island to wait for news outside. Goss Willen is a relatively busy cargo port, and cargo ships from Tamoria, Sidaris, Rydania, and Kevel often call here. These ships not only carry cargo, but also many sailors and crew members who know the news from various places. He can hear a lot of valuable news.

However, Virginia couldn't wait that long. About two weeks later, the tide of chaotic energy would slightly open the portal to the sky, and the Chief Mage could just take advantage of this time to return to Helgen.

According to her, whether it is Cyrodir’s Imperial Legion or the Stormcloak Rebels, they are very happy to go to Helgen Fortress. The ruins of this fortress between Frix and Snowman were paid for by the Winterhold Academy. Bought, especially after Markus fell into the hands of the storm cloak, and Rift Valley City hung the Empire flag as a buffer zone.

Gnaiya and Virginia will return to Mahakam together. Before leaving, the chief mage handed the letter from the vampire Serana to the demon hunter and invited him to have the opportunity to go to Skyrim.

Everyone is talking about the progress of the war. The message passes faster than the wind. On the first night, Zelin heard that Nilfgard’s army had broken through the defense line near the Yaruga River in the south of Livia. Spara and Scala, the two border fortresses of Livia, had been easily captured. Livia was ready for months of siege, but it took only two days to surrender. To be precise, there was not much fighting at all, and Nilfgard promised them that if they opened the city gate and paid the ransom, they would not ransack.

On the third day, new news came to the pier along with the sea breeze.

The 10,000 infantry and more than 3,000 knights gathered in the kingdoms of Aden and Livia were quickly defeated. At least one-fifth of the soldiers were surrounded by Leiria, and the rest were retreating. , Back, back again. The light cavalry of the Nilfgard kept outflanking their retreat. King Devavin of Aden entered the command of Aldeburg. It was reported that Queen Mayvi was still resisting in Livia.

On the sixth day, the news of the battle was like a crow's call. Everyone is constantly inquiring about the war, and there are often many people gathered on the pier just to hear the information brought by the sailors from inland or other places.

The free spirits and Nilfgard's light cavalry team defeated the Governor of Aden's troops in the Valley of Flowers, and the spirits returned to their original city. Nearly 5,000 infantry and more than 1,000 knights were surrounded and annihilated in Esteberg. The city refused to surrender, and the Nilfgard people burned the city to ruins.

Nilfgard is burning everything and plundering everything. Grain, livestock, products and even factories, Guret’s steel plant, Ethanland’s stirrer, zinc smelting furnace, cast iron furnace, Eisdelberg’s foundry and wood factory, Livia’s malt plant, Brewery, textile factory, dyeing workshop. They demolished and took away anything that could be taken away, and everything that could not be taken was burned to ashes.

The white flame from the south.

The man in black holding the banner of the sun **** is sweeping the north like an irresistible wave of violent violence.

Even in Goss Willen, people began to waver. Although the imperial offensive still only exists in the eastern part of the Mahakam Mountains, the western coastal areas are not safe. The number of imperial legions assembled near Sintra has exceeded 60,000. Some people say that the area near the Yaruja River The atmosphere is depressing and suffocating. Without the help of magic, who would have the confidence to resist such a huge army.

On the thirteenth day, the progress of the battle was astonishing.

Aldeburg, the strongest fortress in the Kingdom of Aden, stood for two days before it fell. An army of men in black is encircling Fangerburg, the capital of Aden. The local chamber of commerce and trade unions decided to fight to the death. King Demavin announced that he would command troops in his castle to resist the men in black, and attacked Kovind, Redania, Tamoria, and even the dwarves of Mahakam. Leader Hogg issued a cry for help.

As for Livia, the kingdom of Livia has fallen, and the commander of the Imperial Legion, Duke Adal Ep Darcy, announced that he will become the acting governor of the province of Livia, and the King’s Castle in Livia is the latest Command post. The life and death of Queen Mei Wei is unknown.

Perhaps due to the urgency of the war, the situation in Goss Willen has become relatively peaceful. The blue-clad iron guards of Temoria's special forces withdrew from the city, and some citizens saw them heading south through the city gate. Many of Tamoria’s troops are gathering in Mahakam and the Principality of Maribo. Anyone can tell that the battle between Tamoria and Nifogad on the Yaluga River is about to break out.

The wizard warlock appeared on the fourteenth day.

"Great, I was worried if you were still here."

Francesca's face couldn't hide the tiredness, and her clothes were changed into a new style, which was a long skirt common to elves with a little southern style.

"I know it is not convenient for you to go to Mahakam now, so I will wait here." For such an important matter, the Demon Hunter believes that Elder Hogg of the Dwarf will definitely let his Dwarf Volunteers participate in the battle. His consistent style is to sell a large number of arms and weapons to various countries during the war, or to use a large amount of money to secretly support the dwarves' mercenaries to form a volunteer army to participate in the battle, to seek greater benefits after the war and ensure that the dwarves are against Maha Hum's rule is solid.

I have to say that Hogg is an unbearable dwarf, but he is a shrewd leader.

"Yes, it is not convenient for me to go to Mahakam. The empire and northern congresses allow a dwarf dominion and an elven kingdom to exist, but they will not tolerate two ancient races that may unite." Franciscana He took a sip from a nearby cup, and then vomited out "Strong wine?"

"It's Margarita."

"Sure enough, she used to do this when she was a student." The wizard warlock rubbed her forehead. "I'm going to Sinide Island and talk to Tisya."

"Do you need my company?"

Although Francesca was not the culprit of the coup, but now she is standing with the empire, it is difficult to determine whether Tisya will still regard her as a good friend.

"No, this matter...I want to see her alone." Francesca smiled bitterly. "She helped me so much, but now I stand in the whole position. I don't know if she will forgive or understand me. But I have to apologize to her." She sighed, "Wait here for a while, Ze Lin, when I come back, we will go to Baihua Valley together. When we reach Baihua Valley, I will tell you everything."

The 526th chapter the valley of blooming flowers

It is estimated that no one has seen such a rapid defeat.

There was no confrontation between the two armies, no ravines and castles, and no long and lasting siege and negotiations. Only roundabout warfare, long-distance cavalry warfare, fast marching lightly and landing warfare at sea, the new enclosing technology makes the originally seemingly strong and reliable castle fortress look useless. The rapid assault tactics caused many northern troops to be divided and surrounded in barracks and castles before they could react.

Not only the North, but the Southern Alliance also did not anticipate such a situation.
