The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"I heard footsteps."

Sitting in an abandoned hut by the side of the road, Zelin was about to throw the pieces of wood into the bonfire and stopped in mid-air with his hand. The cold winter wind outside the window whizzed past, but this would not affect the demon hunter's hearing. He heard dense footsteps approaching where they were. Maybe it was the soldiers marching on the road, or maybe the robbers nearby couldn't bear the hunger, and came outside to try their luck. There were a lot of footsteps, and he could only think of these two guesses. The war has made many things difficult to determine.

The elf lying on the side opened his eyes and looked at the dilapidated wooden roof with female deer-like eyes. There was a spider web hanging on it. It seemed that the spiders had already given up this land of no owner.

"I thought no one would disturb us."

"So you are going on a solo visit this time?"

"No." The elf bent down and sat up. "There are too few people in Hundred Flowers Valley who can handle affairs. If I take some people to Tousent, Dole Bretanna will really become an ordinary elf settlement. .I need someone to help solve people’s troubles, and I think I’m alone enough to deal with Duchess Anna of Towson and her courtiers. Don’t underestimate me, I have been fighting with human politicians for a long time. Dealt with."

Francesca didn't wear a hood, she swiped her fingers lightly around her ears, and the slender ears of the elves changed into a human arc with the fingers she swiped.

"Now, I am a herbalist."

"A herbalist traveling with a demon hunter?" Ze Lin raised his eyebrows.

"Didn't you ever walk with a very gentle doctor?" The corner of the elf's mouth outlines a sly arc. "Can't I experience the feeling of a doctor travelling with a demon hunter? Oh~ It seems that there is still a sister missing, Next time I’m going to ask Ada if she’d like to walk out of her laboratory in the Blue Mountains to let the wind out."

"Well..."

Zelin rubbed his forehead, sighed gently, and picked up a piece of cards that had been thrown on the ground after playing.

The elf covered his mouth and smiled slightly.

"Well, let's see who is bothering us." She stood up and smoothed the wrinkles in her long skirt. Her hands smoothed down from her chest, and the exquisite riding outfit changed from where she stroked, and finally turned into a simple linen dress.

Zelin also stood up and snapped his fingers to extinguish the flames burning on the dead branches. The moment the flame went out, the house plunged into darkness. But immediately, the wooden door was pushed open, and the bright moonlight outside replaced the firelight to re-illuminate the house. A knight stood at the door with his back facing the moonlight, and his body in front was hidden in the shadows.

"You are facing the soldiers of Queen Mayvi, travelers. If you are loyal northern citizens, you don't need to be afraid." The knight's gaze swept across the house, and the demon hunter's bright yellow eyes shone in the dark. Let him pause for a while, and then he cleared his throat. "Now, you have an obligation to answer Queen Mayvi's questions. This is your honor."

Chapter 811: Geralt of Livia

Mei Wei?

Queen of Livia?

Zelin thought she had died long ago in the attack of the Nifogadians. Livia and Aden were destroyed by the imperial army. Only King Demavin of Aden fled to Novigrad and sought politics from Rydania. Asylum. The whereabouts of Queen Mervey of Livia has been unknown. Although Nilfgard announced that they had not found Queen Mervey’s body on the battlefield, no one would believe that someone could be in a battle of tens of thousands of people. Identify the corpses one by one on the battlefield across Livia.

"I am a demon hunter, not a traveler or refugee." Zelin does not intend to determine the truth of this sentence. In fact, he hopes that this group of people will leave as soon as possible. "If you want to inquire about the nearby Nilfgard people News, I’m sorry, there’s nothing nearby, and I didn’t find a place to accept commissions. If you ask me where the monsters are located, I can help you. There is a hill about two kilometers to the north with a man on it. If you don’t want your people or horses to disappear in the middle of the night, you’d better get around there."

Zelin's gaze crossed the shoulders of the knight, and he saw that there were probably hundreds of people outside. For a guerrilla team behind enemy lines, this number was already a lot. Too many people make the team bloated, but it will make it difficult for them to escape from the encirclement and suppression of the Nilfgard.

"Demon hunter?" The knight seemed surprised. "Oh, now there is a demon hunter in the queen's army. He made a great contribution to the queen in a battle four days ago and was named a knight. , You can also swear allegiance in front of the queen. We have seen the power of demon hunters, and her majesty will definitely be willing to knight you."

Zelin looked back at Francesca who stood silently behind, who looked back at him indifferently.

He opened his hands. "Perhaps you can tell me, who is that great demon hunter?"

"Oh, he has a glorious name now. You are colleagues. Although he used to be a homeless person, you should call him his title after being sealed, Geralt of Livia."

Geralt of Livia, it took Zelin a long time before he was sure that the person mentioned by the knight was the Geralt of Livia he knew, not some Geralt of Livia or Because the cold wind deformed his voice, Zelin misheard the pronunciation.

"A white-haired demon hunter? And there is a scar on his right eye?"

"Do you know him?"

Zelin shrugged noncommittal.

This is a guerrilla, and now it seems that the rumors about the White Queen are true. After the country was destroyed by the Nilfgaards, Queen Mayvi took the knights and mercenaries who followed her and attacked their camp near the Yaruja and Livia, behind the Nilfgaard Front Legion. And supply depot. Compared with King Demaven of Aden who fled to Novigrad, Mei Wei's behavior is indeed worthy of the evaluation she usually gets. Smart, brave, and will do everything possible to fight for his crown. In the guerrilla camp, Zelin also noticed that there were many dwarven mercenaries, and Mei Wei had obviously received the secret assistance of the dwarf elder Hogg. The guerrillas also found this relatively hidden camp. After determining that the nearby fire came from a traveling demon hunter and not from Nilfgard's scouts, they set up their tents and looked for stones to cover the campfire. .

"Geralt, I never thought I would see you here. I thought you should have arrived in Towson."

The heroic Mei Wei and her knight recruited everyone they could find, including mercenaries and bandits, and launched a guerrilla war against the Nilfgaards. The terrain of Livia and Anglin is very suitable for guerrilla warfare. There is nothing else in these two places, only mountains, bushes and dense forests. The scale of their camp is not small. When they arrived, he noticed that the guerrillas were divided into two camps, one was the royal camp where Queen Mayvi was located, and the other was the Freedom Corps composed of various recruited bandits and refugees. Camp. And Geralt of Livia, his knight camp is in the royal camp.

"Because Milva's body is in some trouble, there is an accompanying doctor in the guerrillas, we must at least wait for Milva's health to get better." Geralt's spirit seems to be much better than when he was in the Brockleron Forest. As for On the side of Dandrien, Zelin didn’t meet him many times, but he never saw the poet when he was sad. "Queen Mayvi’s army is going to Khad Duhu, where there is a druid The sacred woodland, we can go there to inquire about Xili."

Now, there are five people in Geralt’s team, besides him, they are Dandrien, Milva, a young Nilfgard named Cahill Chirac, and a fellow Zelin knew in the past. Friend, Regis.

"A Nilfgard?" Zelin looked at Cahill, who looked like he was only in his twenties.

"At that time I was on Sinide Island, commanding the Squirrel Party." Cahill said frankly.

"And chase Hiri for the emperor's order." Dandrien shook his arm holding the pen and added.

"I understand what I did in the past." Cahill rubbed his hands. "Now I want to help protect that girl. That's it, and I have done it once."

This goes back to the eve of Sintra's demise, when Zelin was still wandering in Covind, wandering around the pub, casino, and signboards in the countryside, and had not yet encountered the knight from Camelot. Before Sintra was about to be breached, Queen Carrancy, Hiri's grandmother asked several Sintra knights to swear to take Hiri to break through, and must not allow Hiri to fall into the hands of the Nilfgards. But the knights failed. They were killed in the burning city. The young Xili fell alone between the corpse and the flames. Afterwards, Cahill, who participated in the Battle of Sintra, found her and took her Brought out from the battlefield.

"But it cannot be denied that you wanted to bring Xili to the emperor at that time."

"I said, Dandreen, you don't have to do it just because I read your manuscript once, I just want to know how a poet would describe us and this action."

However, Cahill has failed twice. In Sintra, he took Hiri out of the battlefield, but the clever Hiri quickly escaped from him. On Sinide Island, he also failed. The emperor was very angry about this and sentenced him to death. If Geralt and his party hadn’t met the Squirrel Party **** who caught him on the way, it is estimated that he would have been a long time ago. A corpse hung on a tree branch.

"If you want to find Xili, I happen to have a piece of news here." Zelin said to Geralt.

Chapter 812 Half-Life Poetry

"Ha, I said, Geralt, your premonition is definitely problematic. Maybe Hiri is not in the south at all." Dandrien interrupted from the side. "But at least we can rest assured that we don't have to figure out how to break in. In Nilfgard’s palace."

"Shut up, Dandrien."

"It seems that this part needs to be revised." The poet drew several horizontal bars on his draft, ticking off some of them. I dare say that in the future, people will study history based on my poems."

"But as the name of a long story, fifty years of poetry is too bad." The curtains of the tent were opened. Regis, his appearance has hardly changed since the last meeting with the demon hunter, except for his body. The stronger the smell of herbs "As we all know, poetry is lifeless and ageless, even if it has, it must be older than fifty years old. I am glad to see you." Regis and Zelin shook hands, "I can see you safe and sound." Things are better."

Regis, to be exact, Emile Regis Lohre Class Tajif, Zelin originally thought that because his home was on the front line of the war, he might never see this erudite again in the future. Physician and botanist. Regis was hung with a string of herbs wrapped in a string, most of which were garlic. It is said that this thing could kill bacteria, but if Zelin was a bacteria, he would definitely not be able to stand the smell of a bunch of garlic being crushed. .

"This is a valuable journey. Two people who are bound together by accident rate, a demon hunter seeks his destiny son. Scholars have been studying destiny, studying astrology, and mystics attribute all this to someone A more powerful and mysterious existence is used as a psychological sustenance. This is a very interesting phenomenon. Sometimes the reason that leads to the realization of the prophecy is the irrational behavior caused by people's fear of the prophecy." Reggie Si, a mouth shows a certain shortcoming, or advantage, of his own. He often starts to answer when people have not finished asking questions or just opened their mouths to ask questions.

"So you decided to come to the South?" Zelin shrugged. "I originally wanted to ask, would you like to teach a student? I have a very close friend who is learning herbal medicine and medicine by herself. "

"I have a notebook." Regis rummaged in his shoulder bag. "It's just a manuscript, but it can help you."

"Aha, now the scholar has become a professor." Dandrien turned his head again and said, "Is this the one by your side?" He looked at Francesca who had transformed into a human appearance.

"Uh..."

"Yes, it's me. I'm traveling with this demon hunter and learn more about medical postures." The elf nodded. "It's not safe outside now. I'm very happy to have a demon hunter and me. Peers."

"Yeah, in this **** age, someone may cut your throat while you are asleep." Milva's face was pale, and there were a few more injuries on his body. They were involved in a fight. In the small conflict of the Nilfgard people, "We were originally going to save an heir to the throne, to find the future queen of Nilfgard from the palace, but now we have really saved a queen and knighted into the army. Reality is really a crappy clown."

Some of them are unwilling to stay in the guerrillas in Livia, such as Mirva. She has been emphasizing that there is nothing wrong with her body. As long as she can leave, she can immediately mount on her horse and rush to the other side of the Yaruga River. Go. However, their team is indeed not suitable for staying in the Livia army. Geralt was involved in the Coup in Sinide, and Dixcher’s legs were discounted, coupled with the relationship with Hiri, now Wanted by three countries or searched by spy agencies.

As for Mirva, she once helped the squirrel party elves to hide in the forest of Brockleron. The crime of helping the squirrel party was enough to cause her to be sentenced to hang in any country in the north. Moreover, Regis raised a very realistic question. The marching direction of the army, especially the guerrillas, is impossible to determine. If a new Nilfgard army appears nearby, the Livian army will soon be transferred to other places.
