The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"You...you said that you wrote me that letter?" Zelin looked at Cole in front of him carefully. The demon hunter was confident in his hearing, and very few people could hide their footsteps in front of him, let alone. He was so close behind him that he was not discovered until he was speaking. From the outside, there is nothing unusual about the boy who calls himself Cole. Even though a person with such a simple dress appears in such a dangerous place, it is an unusual thing in itself.

"The letter I gave you, someone needs help, you can help them."

Cole's voice was hurried, but what Zhong Zelin could hear was not a rush caused by anxiety or tension, as if his own speaking speed was that fast. Only sometimes Zelin had to pause for a while to make it clear that he was saying a word, instead of saying three unrelated words.

"You look a little nervous, Cole. You should take a deep breath and relax." Zelin put down the ebony blade he was holding. Cole didn't see any weapons on his body. Of course, he did not rule out that the opponent would hide hidden weapons more than the demon hunter. . Zelin never showed anyone the Hidden Blade hidden in his wristband.

"They were imprisoned in the dungeon. They were covered in bruises and were on the verge of death." Cole shook his head. "I want to help them, but I can only give them a quick and painless death. Someone told me that he didn't want to die. He wanted to I asked for help from abroad, so I wrote you a letter."

"You mean, you can enter the dungeon of this castle? You can also talk to the prisoners held in the dungeon without disturbing the guards, and after listening to their requests for help, you left the castle and wrote me a seal. Believe?" Zelin quickly grasped the main point in Cole's words, "You... well, I won't ask how you did it now. You know this castle well? Can you tell me about this castle? And what is going on with the garrison inside?"

It is estimated that Zelin's friend Ezio would not be able to do this. In an enemy's castle, without disturbing anyone, walk around the castle and talk with the tightly guarded prisoners. Cole must have his secret, and for those who meet for the first time, it's best to avoid questions that might be embarrassing.

"I know. I've been in this castle for a while, and I know this." Cole walked to the side of the wooden crate, put the barrel on it, and looked down at the pile of debris hidden by a comatose." You didn't kill him, he was panicked, but he didn't feel pain yet."

Zelin didn't respond, he almost guessed some clues. Cole's special ability is likely to read the mind, reading out a person's emotions and feelings. He doesn’t like people with mind-reading ability. Sometimes Francesca will use mind-reading skills to joke with him, but this is a very closely related person. In front of strangers.

"Don't worry." Cole raised his head. "My ability can only tell me how you feel. You feel suspicious and wary. I'm sorry, many people will hate me and stay away from me after I say their feelings. ...I just..." The boy panted and waved his hand vigorously. "I just want to help them."

"I believe you, Cole, I just thought of something from the past." Zelin waved his hand. "Let's stop talking about this, let's talk about business. I will help you, Cole, but you have to tell me first. , What is going on here? And where is the person you want to help, where is the dungeon?"

Cole nodded, and his speech slowed down.

But just when Zelin was about to ask Cole if he knew about the Knights Templar, suddenly, there was a rush of running from the other side of the corridor.

"I heard a voice over there! Come here!"

"Cole, you go first..." Zelin turned his head, only to find that Cole had disappeared, and suddenly disappeared just like when he appeared, as if he had never appeared before.

The demon hunter sighed lightly, and he looked around. After that, he stepped back two steps, with the help of a run-up, jumped to the wooden crate on the side, jumped one by one, grabbed the wooden pole hanging the flag with both hands, and then pulled himself up to the beam.

Soon, the two soldiers who had been followed by Zelin ran over. They were holding swords and looking around.

"Are you sure you really heard the sound?"

A soldier asked his colleague, "I didn't hear anything just now."

"Impossible, I heard someone talking here." Another soldier looked around vigilantly, his eyes rolling in his eye sockets, "There must be someone here!"

Zelin was waiting, waiting for anyone else to show up.

"Are you sure?" They looked around. One of the soldiers put down the sword. He walked to the side window, opened the window and looked down. "There is no one here. You shouldn't think someone can come in through the window." Anyone who does this will break their legs. The front door has been closed, and there are many knights over the side door. If someone breaks in, the alarm would have sounded. Why would we be patrolling here?"

"I seem to really hear the sound..." The soldier who issued the warning showed a confused expression, and put down his sword. "Are they running?"

"Can you run without making any noise? It's not a human being, it's a ghost. You must be too sleepy. If you hold on for a while, it will be someone else's turn to change shifts." The soldier by the window closed the window again, and suddenly , His gaze was placed on the pile of debris aside, "Wait, isn't this a barrel for forage? Why is it here?"

Just a breath, the attack happened.

Zelin aimed at the soldier below, jumped from the beam of the room, and knocked him to the ground before the opponent reacted. He grabbed the soldier's helmet and slammed it towards the ground. With a thump, the soldier rolled his eyes and passed out.

"What is this...!"

Another soldier turned around, and Zelin saw panic in his eyes. He opened his mouth and tried to scream, but before the scream reached his throat, he was punched back. The demon hunter punched the soldier in the face, causing him to cover his face in pain, unable to make any warnings or screams, and then slammed a heavy blow on the unprotected abdomen, inlaid with silver nails. The glove hit the abdomen with a muffled noise, as if a hammer hit, forcing the soldier to bend down subconsciously. The third punch hit the back of the opponent's head exposed after bending down. The soldier's legs softened and fell to the ground. .

In the blink of an eye, calm was restored in the corridor, only a slight dragging sound remained.

The first thousand and ninety-four chapters of the castle dungeon

On the two soldiers, Zelin found a letter of command and an emblem with the same pattern on the flag.

He dragged the soldiers into the pile of debris, and he was sure that he had taken them down hard enough to ensure that they were unconscious until tomorrow morning and would not wake up in the middle of the night to give a warning.

As Zelin was considering his next move, he heard Cole's voice ringing from the other side of the steps.

"Here, come here!"

Cole was standing by the steps, beckoning to the demon hunter, "This road leads to the dungeon."

"Where did you go?" Zelin walked over and asked Cole, "How did you disappear?"

"I didn't disappear." Cole shook his head. "I made everyone here forget me."

Zelin frowned slightly, which sounded strange, and he took two steps forward.

"Can you tell me who is being held here?" Zelin suddenly asked, "Are they kidnapped nearby villagers? Or a hapless traveler?"

"Neither, they are truth seekers." Colby made a gesture. "My friend Reese believes that everyone deserves help and understanding. And Reese's mother Winnie. She is a good person who is as warm as the sun. She is a mage, but she thinks that the mage and the Templar are treated equally. Winnie thinks that both the mage and the Templar have their own difficulties and difficulties. I know the mage but not the Templar. So after we parted, I followed Around the Templars, I wanted to know what kind of people they were, and then... Then I saw all this. First, the Templars were occupied and corrupted, and then the truth seekers, who were in pain, one Demon, a powerful jealous! It..."

"Jealous?" Zelin suddenly caught a term he had heard before. On the mountain road behind the ruins of the Holy Ash Temple, they rescued a Templar from the hands of the devil. At that time, the Templar mentioned the envy, but after arriving in the ruins, they did not find any trace of the envy. "You Say there is a jealous demon affecting the Knights Templar?"

"Yes, I saw the pain, it was caused by jealousy."

This is not good news. If there is really a jealous demon as powerful as Cole described influencing the Knights Templar, then by common sense, the least suspected Knights Templar will be the most suspicious. They are very likely. It is related to the explosion of the Holy Ash Temple. He had better follow this clue to investigate, maybe he could find out the identity of the culprit they saw in the illusion of the ruins of the Holy Ash Temple.

"I'm going to rescue those truth seekers, don't worry, Cole. I will definitely help."

"You have to hurry up, something is moving here." Cole took two steps forward and stretched out his finger. "They are full of resentment, an empty shell, filled with decay, and they are approaching."

"What's that?" Zelin really couldn't understand Cole's meaning. He was like a child who had just learned human language. He knew all kinds of adjectives, but didn't know how to express them correctly.

"You, you must be faster, time is running out." Cole took a deep breath and saw Zelin stop, he looked even more anxious. "Run, you must run! I will hold them, let They slow down."

"Wait, Cole! Wait!" Zelin pressed Cole's shoulder. The cold touch from his hand made him stunned. Cole didn't have the body temperature that ordinary people should have, and it was as cold as a corpse that had been dead for a long time. But the demon hunter who has seen many things did not show any expressions, "You mean, dangerous creatures are approaching this fortress?"

"Yes, they are dangerous. They are dangerous." Cole nodded. "I can... slow them down."

"Listen to Cole, in the woods outside the castle, there are a group of scouts. They don't know all of this." Zelin thought for a while. Cole hasn't shown any hostility to him until now. He is hunting with his energy. The demon hunter launches an attack unknowingly, which is undoubtedly a deadly threat to Zelin. No one is willing to face an enemy who can put a dagger on your neck at any time without knowing it. But Cole did not do this, maybe he can believe Cole "you go to warn them, tell them the upcoming danger, let them evacuate. And tell them, don't worry about this, I can deal with the enemy."

Colton gave a moment, then nodded, "I help, yes, I will help."

Suddenly, he disappeared. This time Zelin saw clearly that Cole disappeared in front of him, like some kind of invisibility magic that didn't require chanting.

Taking a deep breath, the torches in the castle can't dispel the cold and dampness in the air.

Zelin followed the path Cole showed him, like a hunter advancing along a dark corridor, quietly touching the prey who still knew nothing about danger.

After going around the corner, a hall decorated with frescoes appeared in front of him. On the walls of the hall was painted a blonde woman dressed in armor, looking firmly at the blond woman in front of him, but under her, it was burning blazing. Flames. The two sides of the hall are decorated with white marble statues. It is a man crying while covering his face, but with a sharp two-handed sword on his knees. The layout of the hall is similar to what Zelin saw when he was in the sky, a long wooden table with braziers on both sides.

There were about seven soldiers in the whole hall. One soldier was burning by the brazier, and the remaining few were sitting at the long table, not knowing what they were talking about. Zelin saw the opportunity, and one tumbling moved to the door of the steps leading to the lower part of the castle, and slid sideways into the corridor of the steps.

"Did you hear anything?"

A soldier raised his head and asked his colleagues around him.

"Maybe it's the wind." Another listless soldier looked at the gate of the main hall of the castle. Going up, a tree grew on it, and the roots of the tree almost propped up the roof of the top floor."

"When can we leave here?"
