Warlords of the witcher world

Chapter 52 Scarlet Curse
When seeing the scene on the battlefield, Herme couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

Because all they saw were the corpses of wild hunting fighters and wild hunting dogs, and in some places they were even piled up into mountains of corpses, much more than the human beings who fell on the ground.

Herme never imagined that these monster hunters could kill so many wild hunters.

And as the background of this scene, it is the village that has turned into a scorched black. This background makes the scene of the battlefield more shocking to people.

There is no doubt that Ivar Evileye's plan has won, and the casualties of the Wild Hunt's attack must have been greatly exaggerated.

"Quick, the doctor is going to save people, and you don't just watch there, go and help."

Herme greeted his subordinates, this time he brought a lot of doctors, just to rescue the wounded as much as possible.

After the various sound and light effects at the Honeycomb Village were over, Herme immediately led the team that had already been prepared.

He figured doctors and helpers were needed over there, and it was.

And the doctors who were summoned moved very quickly. They got off their horses skillfully, and then ran to the wounded, using the herbs and medicines they carried to rescue the wounded as much as possible.

Herme came to Iva Xieyan, Commander Hakland got off his horse,
"It seems that you have won a big victory, Master Iva. So many Wild Hunts have fallen here, I think your reputation will soon spread throughout Hakland in the future."

What Herme said was not a compliment, but a fact. The wild hunting armor in front of the mountains and plains was an iron fact. Everyone who saw it here would spread the news of victory as soon as possible.

"Fame, if only fame would allow me to mobilize more resources, but it's a pity that it doesn't work at all."

Iva Xieyan shook his head. He had already taken these things lightly. The most important thing was to fight against the wild hunting. Other things were not necessary.

Hemei watched as she brought the doctor to apply medicine to the wounded. Many people screamed because of the direct contact with the wound.

"Then Master Yiva, will the Wild Hunt here come again?"

Herme asked about something he was quite concerned about, and upon hearing this question, Iva smiled,

"No, they won't be able to come for a while. I have some allies who will cause them some trouble. It is estimated that the Wild Hunt will not be able to come to this land for several years. At most, they will send a special team to hunt and kill me. "

Iva looked at the scene on the battlefield and saw the recovered dwarves kicking the wild hunting helmets like a ball, their expressions were full of disdain.

Hemei was very curious about the allies that Iva said, but seeing what Iva didn't mean, he didn't ask too much.

"So what are you going to do next?"

Herme asked about Iva's next plan, and Iva looked at the snake demon hunters who were busy treating the wounded.

"I will stay here for a few more months. The school has just moved here. I have to watch the school settle down with my own eyes. Then, I will continue to hunt the wild hunt. Lord Herme, I am still very grateful to you, if it weren't for you Without the help of the Wild Hunt, it is impossible for me to give Wild Hunt such a head-on blow."

Iva Xieyan bowed very respectfully to Herme. He didn't do this out of flattery, but from the heart.

Herme has invested a lot of resources this time, more than Iva Xieyan's best expectations, so Iva is really grateful to Herme from the bottom of his heart.

"No, I just did what I should do."

Hemelio said with shame that as the local lord, he should have led his troops to fight against these invaders, but because of the things Iva mentioned, he could only take out as much as possible in the end. some coins.

"By the way, Master Iva."

Herme continued, "I would like to invite you, as well as everyone present, to join me in holding a celebration banquet for you."

"Master Herme, my answer is, I am very happy, as for the others,"

Iva Xieyan looked at the people who were either resting or supporting themselves to continue working, and a smile appeared on his face. He rarely smiled like this, a smile from the heart.

"Everyone, Master Hemei is going to hold a celebration banquet for us, do you want to come?"

"Yes, of course!"

Dandelion yelled loudly as soon as Ivar's voice fell, and he also stirred up the atmosphere. Everyone shouted in a hurry, and everyone had smiles on their faces.

Seeing such a scene, Herme also laughed, and everyone he brought laughed.

Although it is said that we are in a cruel battlefield, everyone is smiling at the moment, because everyone knows that the sadness has passed, and the next is a joyful celebration!

.

The news of the defeat of the Wild Hunt spread like the wind through the streets and alleys of Sazarburg, and then from Sazarburg to all directions.

No one didn't believe this news, because a few months ago, the demon hunters exhibited the armor left by the wild hunting they killed. Everyone just doubted the number, which must have been killed a bit too much.

However, all the rumors were dispelled when Herme's army entered Fort Sazar carrying the densely packed Wild Hunting helmets.

Naturally, there was continuous cheering after that. Everyone who participated in the fight against the Wild Hunt was regarded as a hero and enjoyed the cheers of the people.

The demon hunters who used to work in Fort Sazar are naturally very adaptable to this, but the newcomers are different. Their inadaptability is just like the demon hunters back then.

In fact, Ivar Xieyan and Vesemir are more adaptable. These two old demon hunters are very calm. They have experienced the era when the reputation of demon hunters was not so bad. At that time, demon hunters were indeed Treated like a hero.

In this process, the best performers are undoubtedly George and Cohen of the Griffin. As members of the Griffin, they seem to be very adaptable to such an environment. The same as the standard gallant knight.

Oh, there is another Ike and they get together, I don't know what happened, these two griffins and Ike just hit it off, and then they get together, but even though they get together, Ike still loves each other every day The witcher spits out trash talk.

Dorrigaray was a little tired of such a welcome. As a warlock, he had experienced too many such occasions.

As for the mercenaries and dwarves, they are also very happy, the better the reputation, the more business.

On the square in front of the main castle of Sazarburg, Herme announced the results of the monster hunters' battles. Afterwards, there were naturally cheers resounding from heaven and earth, and then, the carnival that lasted all night.

The next day, drunks could be seen from time to time in the streets and alleys of Sazarburg.

The guards came forward with carts and woke up the drunks on the ground.

As for those who really can't get up, then throw it on the car first, and then push it to the cattle and sheep pen outside the city to wake up.

As for the protagonists of this feast, most of them are still sleeping with their women in their arms. How could this kind of repertoire be missing on the celebration night.

However, two elderly people came out early. They sat on the tower of Fort Sazar and looked at the distant scene.

"Is that so? Master Yiva, it seems to you that demon hunters still have at least a hundred years of prosperity."

Vesemir took the wine bag that Iva handed over, and drank the contents of it in one gulp. This is the East of the East, from Herme's private collection.

"Have the monsters really disappeared? I don't think so. In those uninhabited deep mountains and old forests, monsters are still everywhere and can still be seen everywhere. Their numbers are actually much more terrifying than they appear on the surface, and I know that in some In this place, there are also hidden existences no less than the terrifying beasts that humans encountered when they first landed."

Iva's evil eyes were full of memories, and he remembered many things.

In the past few hundred years, he has traveled all over the north and south, even overseas, and he has seen too many things.

"I can see from the usual discussion of your wolf faction that you intend to end the grass trial, but I suggest not to do so, because when I went north, I found something, some Etibad stayed, but there is no Published legacy."

"Etibad? The mage who deciphered the curse of the black sun from the stone tablet of ancient humans?"

Vesemir obviously knew this person, and his words were full of importance.

After all, the curse of the black sun is such a bad thing.

The curse of the black sun is Etibad's most famous achievement. This is the conclusion he drew from his study of the writings on the Wozig people's mausoleum and the Dock people's monument, combined with myths and legends:
A specific solar eclipse will transform the sixty girls born during the Fall of the Dark Sun into terrifying monsters who will eventually lead Lilit back to life and destroy the world.

This led to a hunt for these girls, and some "monsters" did appear among these girls, but it is really hard to say whether it was the persecution that caused all this, or the curse of the black sun.

Unlike the young witcher who regarded this matter as a farce created by a lunatic mage, Vesemir took his attitude very seriously. He had personally seen the Black Sun girl dissected, and those mutations were really...

Most importantly, as an old witcher, Vesemir has seen Lilit believers still wreaking havoc everywhere, those dark red divine powers that represent destruction... Vesemir shook his head subconsciously just thinking about it.

"But we won't mention the curse of the black sun now. What I want to mention now is the curse of scarlet, a curse that Etibald didn't have time to tell the world."

Iva continued to speak, his tone was full of sighs, a sigh for the curse not being able to manifest itself.

"After completing the prophecy of the curse of the black sun, he originally planned to foretell a more terrible disaster. There are records of this disaster on the relics left by the Wozig people and the Dock people, and there are some records on the archipelago. The cult stele, but he died before he could finish the manuscript. I recently found some fragments of his manuscript. Etibald named his unfinished manuscript "The Scarlet Curse", and he wrote that when the moon in the sky became When the manuscript becomes huge and scarlet, those monsters who avoid humans will gather and attack the world. However, his apprentices think that this manuscript is completely madman's ramblings. In order to protect the reputation of the former teacher, they carefully hide it. I also got this thing by chance.”

Vesemir listened in silence, with an unprecedented seriousness on his face. What Eva Evil Eye revealed was big news.

"According to Etibad's prophecy, the arrival of this curse is within our decades. And some non-human beings have already noticed this... When I returned from the south, I met a high-ranking Vampire, discuss this with him."

"A high-level vampire? Master Yiva, you can actually make friends with such a monster."

Vesemir was surprised. The power of high-ranking vampires was something an old witcher like him knew best. Ivar Xieyan actually discussed the scarlet curse with one of them.

"Ah, that vampire... Well, it's interesting, a very nice vampire to get along with, and a very interesting vampire, and he doesn't drink blood. But we can't talk about that right now."

Iva hesitated for a while, searched for a lot of adjectives, and finally felt that none of the words was appropriate, so he just skipped it and moved on to the next topic.

(I think everyone can see it. This refers to Regis. In CDPR's Gwent card expansion pack Scarlet Curse, Regis and Dellaf discussed why demons and ghosts ran to the mountains, and then they After discovering the existence of this curse, Dillaf activated the scarlet curse in the Bauclan massacre, and then attracted so many low-level vampires.)
"The vampire told me that they also have a faint feeling about the curse. Something is encouraging them to go bloody hunting. Their high-level vampires will not fall into this desire, but the beasts below are different. Not just vampires, many Intelligent monsters feel that day is getting closer and they are all eager to try it. The most important thing is that the vampire thinks that this curse can be catalyzed and that day may come earlier, that's why, I suggest you wolf faction Let’s continue to train demon hunters, it’s not time for us to completely exit.”

Iva's tone was full of exclamation. Originally, he also thought that the decline of the demon hunter was inevitable.

But looking at it now, I didn't expect them to have a small upsurge, and they could keep this industry going for a while.

However, these two didn't even think about the possibility of the scarlet cursed monsters coming out to destroy human society, they just saw it as an opportunity for the demon hunters to prosper for another hundred years.

Because monsters are actually like that, back then, human beings could resist the spread of monsters a little bit, expel monsters, and increase living space.

It's not that the army can't fight monsters. In fact, most monsters will die when they fight against the army. Sooner or later, they will die in piles.

The essence of the rise of the demon hunter is that compared with a large number of troops rushing to fight, the cost of the demon hunter is lower and the efficiency is higher, so the demon hunter was able to develop back then.

"I understand."

Vesemir said, flexing his shoulders.

"It seems that I, an old bone, have to work for a hundred years. I thought that after a few decades, the monster would die and retire."

"Hey, I haven't even thought about retiring yet, you little wolf, why do you want to retire? If you're at Elan's age, that's about the same."

"Hahaha, master Yiva, please forgive me. I am not your legendary generation, nor have I experienced a second mutation like you. My body is really getting worse and worse. The demon hunter is already very weak. .”

Vesemir said these words with a smile, but he was full of helplessness. If it weren't for his limited body, who would want to retire.

The witcher didn't die on the bed, but Vesemir really felt that he was getting more and more powerless.

"This problem may be solved in the future, and the second mutation may be common in the future."

Ivar Xieyan's eyes flickered, but Vesemir didn't take Master Ivar's words seriously, he just took it as an elder's comfort to him.

.

In the world of the Wild Hunt, the unfortunate slave trader Nigel was dragged to the square of Tirnaria like a dead dog.

What awaits him is thirty leather whips, and after being beaten, he will become the lowest slave.

The reason why he suffered such punishment is very simple. He caused the death of three hundred elves at one time, and also caused the death of a precious navigator.

It has been a long time since the history of Ein-Air's Wild Hunt and Slave Hunt had such exaggerated casualties.

Therefore, the elf who "caused" all this must be punished.

And after this punishment, all the wild hunting slave hunters received an order, that is to ask them to hunt down Ivar Xieyan.

It's just that after this demon hunter did such a big thing, few slave hunting teams dared to hunt down and kill Iva Xieyan. He killed hundreds of lives at once.

But from the very beginning, the rulers of Tirnalia had no intention of letting these guys hunt them down. They planned to send Eredin's red cavalry.

The world of the demon hunters is of great significance to Ain Eyre. There are people of the same race who parted ways with them, and it is also the world they go to the most. If there is a problem there, their slave hunting career will be greatly affected.

It's just that what Wild Hunt didn't expect was that when they started to recall Eredin's Red Cavalry, a huge wave of space storm hit.

And it is those unicorns who have crossed the world, the aborigines of the world where they are now, who set off this round of storm.

The essence of the blood of the ancients is the product of the research on the ability of unicorns. They were defeated by Ain Eyre back then, and they also suffered massacres and research.

However, the continuous casualties made the two sides reach a tacit agreement, that is, to maintain a state of half war and half peace. The two sides will not directly attack each other, but will use all means other than attacks to disgust each other.

But now, the storm set off by the unicorn destroyed a series of space passages constructed by Ain Eyre, messing them up.

It would take at least two months for Ayn Ayr to rebuild these communication points, and the return time of Eredin's Red Cavalry would definitely be longer because of this.

Ein-Air feels very bad now, two months later, that witcher must have gone somewhere.

And because the teleportation point was destroyed, it was very difficult for them to teleport to the previous battlefield.

Ain Eyre was really disgusted this time.
