The Journey of the Demon Hunter

Zelin glanced at the three people in the room. He stepped lightly and leaned against the wall next to the door. From the sound of footsteps, he could roughly judge that there should be ten soldiers outside the door, maybe more, but he didn't hear clearly. He held his breath and put his hand on the bomb on his waist to make sure that after the door was pushed open, he could throw the day of Serekania before everyone could react.

The two guards didn't do anything. They stayed behind the old woman, bending over humbly.

"I am safe here." The old woman stood by the wooden door and said to the soldiers outside. Her voice is kind, soft but serious. "Thank you for your guards. May the Creator bless you."

At this time, Zelin noticed that on the other side of the room, he always thought it was a fireplace, but there was a sculpture of a woman on the fireplace, which reminded him of the statue of Meritelli Temple, but the statue of the goddess Meritelli had three incarnations. , And the sculpture here is a woman sitting in the ashes.

"The Seeker Cassandra asked if she would be allowed to lead the soldiers stationed in the camp downhill to the mountain."

"Tell the seeker that no more soldiers are needed. Let her guarantee the safety of the representatives of the ring and the Templar captains who have arrived at the foot of the mountain, and ensure that no conflict will break out before the peace conference."

After receiving the order, the footsteps of the soldiers outside the door partly disappeared, but there are fewer than ten soldiers, which is not a troublesome problem for Zelin. The demon hunter waited in front of the door for a while. He wanted to make sure that the old woman’s words did not contain any secret signals that he would say when being hijacked. Talking to other people that seems normal, but in fact it is another kind of connection code.

After a while, after confirming that there were no abnormalities, Zelin put down his guard.

"Thank you for your help. I am very happy to meet someone who is willing to listen to others instead of stigmatizing it when he comes up." Zelin said to her, and he moved his shoulders. "If you know the pope, remember to do it for you. I told him that I had no plans to assassinate him, and I apologized for the confusion caused."

"And the pope heard your words, she believes you came here by accident." The old woman nodded slightly, and she said word by word, "I am sure that you are indeed from a very far away place, from the glory of the Creator. There is no place to be shrouded. I am Justinia V, the pope that you are going to assassinate as they say."

The first thousand and fifty-three chapters of Saidas's past

This piece of land is called Saidas.

A plagued land.

Dry tides and civil wars have always plagued this continent.

In the past, when the human Derfant Empire was at its strongest, the seven most powerful wizards relied on taboo blood magic to use their bodies to cross the barrier between the world and the shadow world and enter the golden city where the gods of the world lived. God left the Golden City in anger. The actions of the seven wizards polluted the Golden City, turning the city where the creator was located into a dark city, and the seven wizards were also contaminated and turned into a creature called the Darkborn. . They are the first group of dark descendants in the history of this continent.

After the first group of Darkborn left the shadow world, they brought their pollution into this world. Many intelligent races living on this continent have been polluted and transformed into new dark descendants. After intelligent creatures are infected, their intelligence and consciousness will gradually degenerate, and they will eventually become a group of roaring corpses. This is the dark descendant. The dark descendants live underground in the continent of Saidas. Usually they do not appear on the surface, but when the powerful pollution power affects the ancient dragon **** sleeping underground and transforms the dragon **** into a great demon, the dark descendants will gather around the great demon, like a magnet attracting iron Like crumbs, rushed to the ground under the leadership of the great devil, launching a crazy attack on the intelligent races on the surface.

This kind of war concerning the survival of the entire continent has occurred five times. This kind of event is called a dry tide. Each dry tide will last for decades, leading to the death of tens of thousands of living beings, and even bringing many countries and races to the brink of extinction. On this continent, a military organization dedicated to combating the plague wave, the Guardian of the Grey, was even established on this continent. When the dry wave happened, they would come to command the army from all over to fight against the Darkborn Army and the Great Demon.

The most recent dry wave occurred ten years ago, and that dry wave almost destroyed the kingdom of Ferrerdon. It was not until later that the hero of Ferrerdon defeated the great demon Uthermeer to end this terrible disaster.

But the disaster has never been far away from this continent.

Due to the disaster caused by the mages, the churches on this continent, and the Andros Church, which worships the Creator and the Bride of God, formed a magic ring designed to bring all the mages together for easy surveillance, and special training to be used for surveillance. Mage, the Knights Templar against magical enemies. To ensure that this continent will not be threatened by blood magic again, and to ensure that the magic will be used in the correct way.

But contradictions arise.

Once a young child is found to have a gift for magic, he will be taken away from his parents and taken to the magic ring for learning and training. Magic is closely related to the shadow world, and there are many demons in the shadow world. They will seduce ignorant spellcasters to make serious mistakes, and even be swallowed up by demons and possessed by them. The monsters that magicians become after being possessed by demons are called monsters. For hatred. In order to prevent such disasters, the wizard gates will be closely monitored in the circle of law. Once they have a dangerous tendency, they will be forced to accept the quiet ritual, and all emotions and thoughts will be erased, otherwise they will be killed.

Moreover, if the Templars believe that a circle of law has a tendency to be contaminated collectively, they can authorize the abolition of the circle of law. Kill all the creatures in the circle, from the chief wizard to the apprentice as a child, carry out a legal slaughter, burn the library inside, and destroy the entire tower of the circle. Regardless of whether there are innocent people in it, or even whether the circle is really contaminated, as long as the knight captain or truth seeker who leads the Templar makes a judgment, the Templar supervising the wizard will begin to carry out a trial. Massacre.

In the end, the accumulated contradictions broke out completely four years ago.

In the Free Mirror of Saiddas, a free city state named Kirkwall, a mage named Anders launched a terrorist attack in the name of the oppressed mage. He used the magic crystal bomb to destroy Kirkwall's cathedral, killing the church priests in the cathedral and the archbishop of Kirkwall. The local captain of the Templars, who is extremely well-known, announced that the order to abolish the ring of law was carried out in Kirkwall, and the local magic ring mage, facing the siege of the Templars, chose to use crazy blood when the negotiation failed. Magic comes to fight back. The war between the mages and the Templars quickly spread to the entire city, and finally ended with the Templar captain and the chief wizard being killed by the local defender Hawke.

But this conflict quickly spread to many legal circles on the mainland. The magic ring mages accused the Templars of inhumanity, and the Templars believed that the mages were out of control and were studying dangerous blood magic. The blood magic of Kirkwall City was the evidence.

In the end, when the negotiations failed, many mages who were dissatisfied with the control voted to declare the independence of the law ring. The Knights Templar also declared that the ancient Nevala agreement signed with the wizards was invalid, accusing all the wizards who had escaped from the circle of law to be heretics and dangerous elements, and they would hunt down these wizards across the continent.

This war between the mages and the Templars is known as the Holy War, but it has been going on for nearly three years. Many residents were affected by the war, and refugees who lost their homes because of the Holy-French War can often be seen on the highway.

As the church that once formed the Ring of Law and the Knights Templar, it has carried out a lot of mediation actions in this war. Now, Pope Justinia V of the church has decided to be a religious sacred place on this continent, with the founder of the church, Android. The Temple of Ashes of Ashes held a peace conference, and the leaders of the Templars and wizards were invited to the Temple of Ashes, hoping to end this conflict that should not have occurred and bring peace.

"I understand why your guards think I am here to assassinate your assassin."

Zelin sighed and had to say that he did come into this world at a very delicate point in time. Religious sacred place, peace conference, before a conference that does not know how many lives will be affected, an intruder of unknown origin and who uses magic can easily make the guards nervous here, not to mention this holy law. The fuse of the war was the assassination of the local archbishop by an apostate mage named Anders.

These radical wizards seem to think that they can force all the timid and cowardly ring wizards to stand up and fight against the church and the Knights Templar to regain their freedom through such behavior. Now that the peace conference is about to be held, it is inevitable that new extreme mages will appear, trying to prevent peace by assassinating the pope as the host and convener.

"Well, thank you for telling me so much... what should I call you?"

"After I became the pope, people called me Justinia." The pope made a request gesture to the attendant, and the attendant went to bring her a glass of water.

"Thank you for helping me and telling me this, Your Excellency Justinia."

"The purpose of the church is to help anyone in need. You don't need to thank you, even if your place is not covered by the glory of the Creator."

Chapter One Thousand and Fifty-Four Explanations and Origins

"I've heard of the Pope, but I didn't expect it to be like this."

Zelin knew similar religious leaders. In Rome he knew that there was a man called the Pope, but he was eventually killed by his son. In his world, there is also the Hierarch Haifam of Eternal Fire, but as far as he knows, Hierarch Haifam will not be so calm when facing unknown intruders, and he can be patient with the intruders just to express Explain the reason to the outsider without showing his identity in good faith.

If an unidentified person wants to see the Hierarch of Haifam, it is estimated that he will have to commit something angering the eternal fire in Tritog, so that he can take a peek through the window in the gap before being escorted to the eternal fire prison. . But I heard that this method is no longer possible, especially after Wizmir II was assassinated by a half-elf assassin. The leader would never leave his villa at all, and only his cronies could contact him.

"I have a friend who has passed away, Winnie. When I first met her, she was like a serious ring leader, but after I got to know her, she knew that she was a gentle and rational person. Two years ago She died to save her son." Justinia V stood in front of the icon. She closed her eyes, raised her right hand and made a gesture in mid-air. She was silent for a while before turning around to "be patient, listen, and finally make a judgment. Many contradictions are caused by lack of patience and listening, but directly made decisions."

"The departure of this friend of yours is a loss."

"A huge loss, if she is still there, the Holy Law War may not break out completely." The Pope sighed lightly, as if temporarily laying off the heavy responsibility on his shoulders and taking a break. Her face is full of traces and wrinkles left over by the years, like a gully washed by rain. The two thick white eyebrows were very long, drooping beside his eyes. The pope lowered his eyes, as if missing his dead friend.

"You won’t ask about your origins, child. I see your strength. You can evade many searched soldiers in this temple, and you can also knock them down. You didn’t kill them. Good people don’t Should be jailed and imprisoned. If you wish to leave, I will ask the nightingale nun Leliana to send you away. If you plan to find something to do, Cassandra the Seeker should arrange some work for you."

"I think I’m willing to do these jobs, as I just said, I came here because of a magical accident, and I don’t have much money. If I can, I hope I can make some money here, and then consider the How to get back. It’s not that I can meet someone as kind as yours in other places who can introduce me to work.” Zelin rubbed the tip of his nose, and the cold wind blew in from the broken glass window and dispersed the logs. The warmth brought by the flames.

He can use this to understand the world and get to know the people in this world.

Although the portal threw him here, it seemed like a very unlucky probability. But now it seems that Goddess of Luck is still taking care of him. This reminded him of the encounter with Ezio on the outskirts of Monteriggioni. If he did not happen to meet Ezio there, it might take him a long time to understand the world, and he might not make any money. To the gold he badly needed at the time. After all, cheating outsiders is not a feature of a single world.

"I am good at tracking, finding objects, and finding people. I still know how to use the sword. Maybe there are some commissions? I plan to make some money before leaving."

Making money is second, the portal is located near this temple, and there are many wizards in this world. According to the pope, the humans here have at least two empires: the Oles Empire and the Emperor Devant, four kingdoms: Ferrerdon, Nevara, Antivan and Levien, and one A free land composed of free city states.

In addition, the kingdom of dwarves living underground and the kingdom ruled by the Kunari with horns are also not to be underestimated. The demon hunter had better find a job near the portal, as he did not want anyone to notice the existence of the portal.

One of the more important points is that the Kingdom of Derfant is governed by a wizard, and Derfant also has a church of his own. Contrary to other places, they are assisted by the mages governing the church, rather than the church managing the mages. The first generation of Darkborn back then was caused by the unscrupulous use of blood magic by the Gudfant Empire.

If the Mages Archon of the Emperor Devant knew the existence of a portal to another world, how could this group of wizards who had dared to use blood magic to enter the residence of the gods in the past missed the opportunity to enter the other world.

A civilized and prosperous world may mean danger to another world, but there are opportunities that exist at the same time as danger, just like Skyrim. But this world is not like a world that needs demon hunters. Saidas does not seem to have so many wild monsters. People are unimpeded on the road. As long as they don't go to too remote and dangerous places, this world sounds very safe.

"Cassandra the Seeker may need help. We do need manpower to ensure the safety of the Holy Ash Temple and the Peace Conference." The lights on the mountainside "may the Creator bless us."

After the Knights Templar left, only a small part of the armed forces of the church remained. In order to ensure the smooth progress of this peace conference, the Pope hired some trusted mercenaries, and even Kunali with horns. Soldiers.

"Child, I hope you can answer me a question."

"What's the problem."

"Your eyes," the pope said slowly. "You have a pair of unique eyes, and I noticed it when you came in. Androst is up, why do your eyes look like this?"

"Because of a kind of magic experiment." Zelin considered his own words in his heart. "Thanks to some wizards' experiments, I have become like this. Cat's eyes, faster speed and stronger power, and What you saw just now, the ability to cast some tricks."
