The Journey of the Demon Hunter

Tiny snowflakes began to float in the sky.

Chapter 493: Hunter and Prey

When the previous white frost came, the village closest to the female eagle tower fell badly. The village was covered with snow and the ground was frozen, not to mention that the deadly cold wind seemed to blow people to the sky. Go, maybe throw a basin of water outside and it will turn into a pile of crushed ice in the next moment. The good thing is that no fools will stand by the walls of other people's homes and pee.

But now this unnamed village, like other villages on Udvik Island, has been abandoned. The island has become very dangerous. Living in these villages without high walls, maybe one night, the giant will rush into the village to slaughter. Now, only houses and fences covered by snow are left here.

"I remember you said before that there will be a storm today."

"All this has become abnormal."

Reaching out his hand, the falling snowflakes fell on the demon hunter's gloves, he rubbed his hands, and the touch of the snowflakes was extremely real.

"Warlock used to tell me something that if large-scale celestial spheres converge, the physical rules of two different worlds will conflict. For example, grass may be higher than a tree, water may flow from a low place to a high place, and insects are more than one. People are even older. It seems that the snow in October is no more than that."

"There are also a lot of monsters from different worlds." Step by step, Gerd marched along the trail of the eagle to the female eagle tower where the road was barely visible. "And we have already seen the consequences and harm."

"You mean the floating port?" Zelin asked back.

"Yes, but it's not just the Pontal Valley. I went to the dwarf's Fjian city before. The number of monsters around the Mahakam Mountains far exceeds that of Temoria on the left and Aden on the right, and there are Several places are eligible to become new places of magic."

A bad news may also be a good news.

The magic place, all the large magic places in the world are under the control of the sorcerer sect, and some mages will also choose to place their mage tower in a place where the chaotic energy is relatively strong. If Mahakam is really like Gerd said, there are many new magical powers appearing, too many warlocks stationed in it is not a good thing for the demon hunter.

But the good news is that Elder Hogg, the dwarf leader of Mahakam, has always disliked outsiders entering his mountains. If he rejects those warlocks and wizards, maybe Zelin can talk to him. After all, for the Griffin School, magic is The place is very important to the promotion of the French seal.

"There are only fishermen and sailors. I don't understand. This is a corner of the world. How can wild hunters notice."

Standing in the abandoned village, Gerd complained. In this village, only canvas hunting and hunting sounded by the cold wind are left. Not far away is the female eagle tower, and Zelin can already see the damaged top of the tower. The tower was intact in the past, but later it became like the remains of the elves left on the mainland. As long as it did not sink to the ground for various reasons, or became the palace of the local ruler like Buckland, it would be covered by a piece of brick. Then a piece of brick was demolished and taken by local farmers and fishermen to repair their hut.

"I don't understand some things, such as what exactly Wild Hunting wants to do, what are they looking for, but what will they do when they find it?"

"Maybe someone ran away from home," Gerd said jokingly.

The villagers in the abandoned villages must have gone in a hurry. There were even a lot of things in the houses before they had time to take away. Some glass bottles were pushed to the ground in a panic and turned into a pile of fragments. Some houses collapsed, but they were not giants. The masterpiece, but was overwhelmed by snow.

Several human-faced demon birds used this as their nest, and the demon hunters drove them away.

"Let's speed up, this snow may bury the mountain road."

"Hurry up, we can turn back before sunset and find another giant. The frost giant will definitely return to his slaughterhouse. Then, we will kill him in his slaughterhouse."

The Eagle Tower is at the end of Udvik Island, and the more you go up the cliff, the more rugged and narrow the road becomes. On one side was a cliff tens of meters high, and the sound of waves hitting the reef echoed in Zelin's ears from time to time. The road is very slippery, with snow and ice everywhere, the more you go up, the more violent the wind and snow.

They killed the one-eyed monster, and if the Frost Giant was not near the Female Eagle Tower, it must be in the canyon east of Udvik Island. According to the theory put forward by Ben Ade’s academic scholars, some creatures will like to stay in places where there may be rifts in the world, which may make them feel comfortable.

The demon hunter understands the habits of the female siren and Hekna. They have some similarities with humans, that is, they stay in the lair and sleep at night. Neither Zelin nor Gerd knew whether the vision of the giant at night would be affected, but for the demon hunter, there was no difference between night and day.

"Did you hear anything?"

Zelin suddenly stopped and asked Gerd who was slapping the snow on his shoulders. Hearing Zelin's question, Gerd paused slightly.

After a few seconds, the bear school hunter slowly moved his hand to the hilt behind the sword "...the wind and snow covered too much sound."

Zelin raised his eyes and looked at the rock above, and also touched the hilt behind him. The raised rock just blocked the line of sight from bottom to top. "This is indeed a good place to ambush."

As soon as the voice fell, several crawling creatures protruded their heads from the top of the rock. They looked like creatures popping out of the rock, or creatures made up of a pile of rocks and steel. But it was not the first time Zelin saw these monsters, and their owners.

Wild Hound.

The hounds opened their mouths wide and let out a silent neigh. The foremost ones jumped directly off the cliff and rushed towards the two demon hunters on the cliff path.

Behind him was a sea cliff tens of meters away. Looking at the hounds that came down, Zelin shook his left hand and Alder swept out. Two hounds were shot out in the leaping mid-air and hit the nearby rocks. Or just roll off the cliff and fall into the rough water below.

The other hound that fell on Gerd was stuck in the mouth by the silver sword of the Bear School, and the hunter punched the hound on the chin with his backhand. The hound seemed to want to defend. Many ice cubes grew on it, but Gerd's top-down slash cut it into two with the ice cubes.

"Wild hunting! Where are they!"

The Skellige shouted with his sword still stuck to the brimstone blood of the wild hound.

"The hound must have come from the female eagle tower." Zelin ran up the mountain road a few steps. The footprints of the hound in the snow were clearly visible, extending all the way to the female eagle tower above the cliff. "Quick, there must be still What is it!"

Chapter 494 The Shaky Wall

"Damn it, is there a problem with this magic thing again?! Those three-legged cat warlocks, they patted me on the chest and told me that this thing would definitely not be a problem!"

In another dark room, Curdin and his partner Finn were immersed in a sheepskin roll. As a lawyer, he has become accustomed to staying in a dimly sealed room, especially since the last time he was attacked, this uneasy feeling has made him rely on the shadows. Fortunately, some of his friends can provide him with enough shadow.

"I can't contact the Demon Hunter. What happened to him in Skelliger, the magic signal was disturbed."

"Unbelievable... Maybe the demon hunter has encountered incredible things like us." Finn exclaimed, his eyes running on the moldy parchment. "It's unbelievable... Where did you get these files? My old man God, we only need to look at these things to be eligible to be sent to the guillotine. There is no need for trial and law."

"It only takes a small price... it's not worth mentioning compared to these documents." Curdin coughed, and threw the lens in his hand on the table aside. "We always thought it was the kings of the northern countries. I want to attack the warlocks, clean up those warlocks who want to maintain peace, and let the remaining order serve their war...No, we were wrong, we were so wrong."

"This kind of mistake is not worthy of shame." Finn opened his eyes and looked at the handwriting on the sheepskin scroll word by word. It was Nilfgard's official handwriting, and some of the handwriting was illegible, the people of Kodinger. I must be very nervous when copying these documents, and I even wrote a few words incorrectly.

"We always thought it was the kings of the north who planted spies in the order, but the Nilfgard, they did it a long time ago. This is the conspiracy of the empire! Enhill, the emperor didn’t care about the peace treaty at all! But that. People... how could he be Emperor Enhir's spy? He could be the one who led the entire cult for hundreds of years."

The strongest, most promising, and most loyal person in the Order, the one who works hard to mediate the peace treaty, and the one who is seen as the most likely to control the entire council.

He actually served the emperor in the south in secret.

Especially after the Emperor’s Legion was destroyed on Sutton Hill.

"This is a dangerous game, Curtin." Finn said to his partner. "We don't even know when he was on the side of the emperor. He brought the Order of Warlocks on Sutton Hill. Knocked out Enhill's tooth!"

"When is not the key, the key is that he is already a member of the empire, no matter what he intends, at least on the face of it." The candlelight gleamed in Curdin's eyes. "The person I sent to Sunnid Island Yesterday sent back news, Tishaya of the Council of the Order tried to rely on him to balance the pressure from the king, damn, she didn’t even know that the wall next to her might collapse at any time, crushing her to death...and the demon hunter. The elf warlock the hunter cares about..."

"How to say?"

"Be deceived, or crushed to death by a collapsed wall."

Curdin coughed again, his face twisted with a violent cough, "Everyone has walked to the edge of the cliff. It's time for the showdown. No one can stop."

"We know that the warlock is very powerful, but he can't stand alone against an army." Finn pulled his gaze out of Nilfgard's text. These secrets made him feel his brain trembling. "He may have a way to get rid of it. The anti-magic enchantment on Sinide Island may be able to easily destroy any warlock who opposes him, but facing a special force equipped with anti-magic metal from Redania and Tamoria, he has no chance of winning. ."

"No, the empire also has his servant army in the north." Curdin's finger clicked on the map. "Don't forget, spirit."

"Damn it! We must notify the demon hunter!" Curdin picked up the lens again, but there was only a harsh squeak in the lens.

Elves.

Ancient race.

A race that has lived here for more than two thousand years before humans came to this world.

"Elves should be treated as they deserve, and humans and other races should coexist in this world. I deeply agree with this theory."
