Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf.

Chapter 539 The Birth of an Addicted Wolf

He understood Ada Emin's concerns.

Unlike the many portals along the way, those portals were all in Thomas Moreau's mind, pried out by the elf's mind confusion.

Dangerous, but controllable.

But behind a strange portal, it may lead to anywhere.

Thomas Moreau's treasure trove, Geron Moreau's prison, another laboratory...

These are fine, but what if it is underground, in the ocean, in the sky, or even directly leading to the magma of an active volcano...

The unknown is the scariest thing.

Theoretically, fate would not lead him to a dead end, but who knows?

The last time we were in the Pasolon Forest, the two Wild Hunts were not easy to deal with, not to mention that there was a large group of pursuers from Ban Ade behind them.

If it weren't for Alin's cheating and the invisibility item "Night" from Francesca, anyone else would have died without a burial place long ago.

This is also the reason why, even though it was clearly about the secret of the Ard Ghaith Gate, he did not think of activating the portal privately, but called Ada Emin instead.

When exploring the unknown, it is definitely safest to be with someone who is knowledgeable, powerful, and experienced.

Even Vera can't catch up with this.

However, he was not confident that Ada Emin would agree.

If that doesn't work, then we can only wait for Wei...

"can."

Aida Emin's cold voice interrupted the words brewing in Ailin's mind.

Ailin was stunned.

"Shall we set off now?" Ada Emin stroked the wall with her right hand.

The magic power stirred up a breeze, completely exposing the pattern of the long-distance teleportation array.

Immediately afterwards, the slightly flawed lines in the ceremony were filled with several golden magical glows.

"Uh... of course."

After Ailin came back to his senses, he nodded, the magic power in his body flowed, and he slightly bent his thumb and index finger, drew a triangle in front of him and cast a Quen seal again.

Aida Emin saw a flash of golden light on his body and also recited a few spells.

The emerald green magical glow lit up from the center of the belt and blended into the light yellow skirt.

Then, she looked at Ailin again, and after getting a response, she gently tapped the center of the teleportation array with her right hand.

In an instant.

The wolf emblem on the demon hunter's chest hummed violently.

The gray-white rock wall was decorated with patterns, and the entire wall was flashing with dazzling blue light.

Then...

"Boom~"

A magnificent portal with an edge that burned coldly like a dark blue flame and a core that was so dark that it was difficult to fathom almost covered the entire wall.

After the portal appeared, Ada Emin glanced at Alin and walked straight in.

Ailin soothed the call of destiny that had become stronger and more intense due to the appearance of the portal, took a deep breath, and followed closely.

"Boom~"

The portal disappears.

Thomas Moreau's laboratory returned to silence, as if no one had ever been there.

……

The portal whizzed and swirled like a tornado, and finally spit him out unceremoniously.

The long-distance portal was so rough and wild, completely different from its portal brothers, and the short trip just now was like entering a spinning washing machine.

This was the first time he felt the discomfort and pain brought by space teleportation since the fragment of the Gate of Ade Ges had enabled him to learn space skills such as portal, flashing and space control.

"Crack~"

A ball of light illuminated the surroundings.

Aida Emin stood next to him, looking pale.

Apparently, the excursion just now had treated witchers and warlocks alike.

"It's too old, and it's an imperfect magic circle," the elven sorceress said with an unpleasant expression, "This long-distance teleportation circle was probably found by Thomas Moreau from the ruins of the Valley of the Nine."

"In the era of the Elf King's Court, stable long-distance teleportation magic arrays were forbidden techniques that only officials could master."

"This crude magic circle was probably developed by the black merchants of the Nine Valleys for smuggling."

Ailin raised an eyebrow but said nothing.

Not all elves are as otherworldly as described in legends.

In an intelligent population, criminals, murderers, robbers and smugglers will certainly exist.

This is not surprising.

After taking two breaths, the discomfort caused by the rough transmission was slightly relieved.

Ailin also had time to look around.

He found himself in a very rough cave, surrounded by dirt and sand, but with simple bricks and stones on the ground.

It was a very strange arrangement, like some kind of half-finished catacombs, or more like an abandoned robbers' den.

Not pretty, but seems to be functional.

There was a rock wall in front of him. Seeing that there was no danger, Ailin rested on the ground for a while, then stood up and looked back.

The chamber had only one exit, hidden in a darkness beyond the reach of Ada Emin's light spells.

The throbbing was even stronger than in Thomas Moreau's experiment, almost jumping out of the chest, and was directed towards the darkness.

Is it a fragment of the Gate of Ard Ghaith or a guiding stone?
"Whoo~"

He exhaled, exchanged a glance with the elven sorceress, and both walked cautiously toward the only passage.

"Tap~tap~tap~"

The footsteps were elongated in the echo of the empty cave, and sounded like a baby crying miserably at the end of the passage.

The witcher and the elven sorceress listened and couldn't help but use some skills and lighten their steps.

But after the footsteps disappeared, the strong feeling of repression became stronger and stronger.

The cave was so quiet that you could hear each other's breathing and heartbeats, which made your hair stand on end and your back chilled.

It was as if they were not walking in an empty cave, but walking beside a sleeping dragon.

The dragon could open its eyes at any time, baring its ferocious mouth and spewing out flames or concentrated acid, filling every corner of the passage.

The call of destiny is becoming stronger and stronger.

"Buzz!"

The wolf emblem trembled and made a sharp roar. After being calmed down by Ailin in his mind, its restlessness gradually subsided.

What's ahead?
Ailin couldn't help but ask himself.

This strong calling is several times stronger than the one I felt last time in the Pasolon Forest.

But that time, he obtained a fragment of the Gate of Ard Ghaith and a guiding stone of the Gate of Ard Ghaith from the two Wild Hunts.

Arlin's strange behavior and the buzzing of the wolf emblem made Ada Emin, who was unable to sense her fate, realize that something was wrong.

But she didn't say anything. Instead, she frowned and watched the rise and fall of Ailin's chest, as if thinking about something.

In such a depressing atmosphere, the two walked in silence for a long time.

In this long passage that looks like the esophagus of a giant beast, time seems to be infinitely extended, making it impossible to feel the passage of time.

"There's light there!"

Ada Emin suddenly reminded softly.

Ailin squinted his eyes and looked in the direction of the sound. There was indeed a flickering red light at the end of the passage.

Is this place occupied?!

Neither Ailin nor Aida Emin intended to say hello, but instead became alert.

Compared to possible monsters, most of the time, only intelligent creatures are the natural enemies of intelligent creatures.

They looked at each other.

Aida Emin waved her hand, and the light ball above her head went out instantly. And because of the stealth skills of the Cat School, Alin was as quiet as a cat, which made the knowers from the Blue Mountains take a second look.

The light at the end of the passage was getting closer and closer, and the depressing atmosphere was becoming more and more solemn, but the air was still silent, and there was no sign of any living person.

But there could not be no one there, for this was an ordinary flame, not the glow of a magic lamp.

There is no medium in this world that can burn continuously.

Either the owner of this place left, or...

They were spotted from the beginning!

Aida Emin reached the exit before him and glanced back.

Ailin held his breath, and his right hand quietly moved up and grasped the hilt of Balmer's sword. At the same time, he opened the reagent bag with his left hand, took out a bottle of giant ghoul decoction and drank it.

[Name: Giant Ghoul Decoction Recipe]

……

【Function: Adrenaline is generated faster than usual until the enemy hits you! 】

A stream of heat rushed straight to the witcher's kidneys on both sides of his waist, as if soaking both kidneys in a slightly hot hot spring.

After putting the empty bottle back, he uncorked another bottle of blizzard potion and drank it in one gulp.

【Name: Snowstorm】

……

[Function: When in danger, time will slow down]

now.

Not only were his pupils blue, but even the whites of his eyes were also dyed a somewhat transparent icy blue.

The blood vessels at the corners of his eyes bulged and pulsated as if they were about to burst.

And that's not all. After putting the empty bottle of blizzard potion back, he fumbled out another bottle of potion from the reagent bag.

The gray liquid swayed in the clear crystal bottle like haze.

Under Ada Emin's suspicious gaze, Aelin hesitated for a few seconds and swallowed the potion in one gulp.

【Name: Maripo Forest】

……

【Function: Accelerate the regeneration of adrenaline. 】

[Note: I have good news for you! Maripo Forest can be used together with the Giant Ghoul decoction. Of course, this is also bad news in a sense. It's really tragic that children have to replenish their kidneys at such a young age! ]

Since the crisis of the evil god's arrival, due to the rapid improvement of attributes——

力量、敏捷和体质，从80、64和68，激增到99（+19）、92（+28）和98（+30）。

Ailin's resistance to potions and poisons increased again, and he could barely take three bottles of potions at the same time.

The same could be done when heading to Redania to rescue Dante, Bonte, and Fred, but a third potion that could be used in combination had not yet been created.

But after returning to Kaer Morhen, after some matching and experimentation, Maribor Forest was found to be the best combination for close combat with Giant Ghoul Decoction and Blizzard, and it was also within the tolerance range of Aelin's poisonous patience.

Of course, three bottles of magic potion are the limit before the attribute is broken. If you want to truly reach the various addiction schools in the previous life game, you can only wait for the second mutation.

The cold potion flowed down the throat.

However, it is completely absorbed before it reaches the stomach.

After a second of calm.

The already warm and hot kidneys seemed to have been fed with pure oxygen over a low flame, and instantly became as hot as molten magma.

Even though the adrenaline was suppressed again and again, it still quietly overflowed.

The poison was on the verge of limit, making the heart feel heavy as if hung with a thousand-pound iron chain, but it was also beating as powerfully as a war drum, pumping blood, which was extremely contradictory.

"Are you...are you okay?"

Ada Emin's rare worried voice rang out in his mind, so softly that it seemed as if she was worried about exploding his brain.

Aelin shook his head.

He knew that he looked scary now - the intense toxicity brought by the combined use of three potions made his face pale and bloodless, and the dark blue blood vessels bulged at the corners of his eyes, looking as hideous as tangled tree roots.

More like a dead person than any newly deceased corpse.

But to be honest, the toxicity of any of the Giant Ghoul Decoction, Blizzard and Maripo Forest Potion would kill ordinary humans in one bite.

Most demon hunters can't handle the second bottle. He is probably the only one in the entire demon hunter world who can drink three bottles and still fight normally.

In fact, with the knowledgeable Ada Emin around and Ailin's current strength, the combination of two bottles of magic potions should be more than enough.

These three bottles of potions are very expensive, and it would be a waste if there are no enemies ahead.

However, the oppressive atmosphere in the empty cave was too heavy, like a blessing from magic, yet it was not quite right.

But the texture of the pressure was almost the same as when the evil god first came, with a hint of foreboding.

This made Ailin alert.

At the same time, the unprecedentedly strong call of fate greatly enhanced this sense of foreboding.

When you have the ability to reach your strongest state, why not do so?

It is the most foolish thing to be careless for the sake of money or because you underestimate the enemy.

Also.

The existence of Ida Emin is not entirely reliable.

"No, I've never felt so good," Ailin let out a long breath and replied in his mind, "Let's continue..."

Just say it.

He first walked past the elven sorceress, held Balmer in his right hand, and looked towards the light.

Upon hearing this, Ada Emin frowned and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

But in the end, he followed without saying a word, looking towards the light.

It was a spacious cave with bricks and stones on the ground. The rock walls on both sides were undecorated, rough and primitive.

But there are no man-made structures, just like a temporary safe house for thieves.

The only difference from the place we were teleported in from was that there were torches on both sides of the brick floor.

The flames burned fiercely, illuminating the wide cave like daylight.

You can still faintly smell the fragrance of burning pine resin in the air.

A huge stone mountain blocks the middle of the brick-paved road, making it impossible to see what is at the end of the cave.

More importantly...

There is no one here, no trace of human being, not even any monsters. It seems like a ruin that has been abandoned for a long time.

But how is this possible?
The call of destiny is behind that stone mountain.

The oppressive atmosphere in the air, as if favored by the elements, not only did not weaken, but was gradually strengthening. At this moment, it was like a mountain pressing on the shoulders.

Ailin glanced back hesitantly.

Ada Emin's face was also full of doubts, but her eyes were fixed on the stone mountain.

Stone Mountain… Ailin looked back.

This hill, which is three people high, is indeed a bit strange. The outer shell is grayish white instead of the yellowish brown of the ground and rock walls, as if it had been specially transported from outside.

After thinking about it, he connected his mind to the wolf emblem.

The elemental perspective unfolded before his eyes, and Ailin suddenly trembled all over.

He discovered that from the elemental perspective, the guidance of fate was not pointing behind the stone mountain, but at the center of the stone mountain.

The moment he realized this, the guidance of fate suddenly disappeared.

follow closely……

"rumble--"

The whole cave suddenly shook.

"Aylin!"

Aida Emin suddenly screamed in his mind with a hint of fear.

"That's not an ordinary stone mountain..."

"It's a colossus!"
