The Journey of the Demon Hunter

Lead the griffon into the arch. The arch is large enough to allow two carriages to pass side by side. Kenna kept looking at the Griffin until she almost tripped over a stone on the road. Along the way, the psionicist has been staring at the griffon intently. After all, a majestic griffon can attract more attention than a cattail dragon, pterodactyl or petrified chicken lizard.

"If it weren't for you to walk in front of this griffin, I would almost summon other apprentices to teach on the spot **** a flying monster." George's hearty voice came from behind a pile of rocks. "What's going on? Why can you put on the reins for a griffon?"

"It's a long story." Zelin patted the shiny white feathers on the neck of the Griffin. "How do you think this is our mount?"

"God, are you serious?" George exclaimed and walked to the Griffin. He slowly stretched out his hand, and gently swept the feathers of the Griffin with his fingers. "It's unbelievable. How did you do it? This mount...wait, your face is not so good, what happened?"

"Nothing." Zelin rubbed his forehead. "What do you think of this griffon mount?"

"He can fly. It's not comparable to horses." George circled the griffin and nodded in admiration: "It must be difficult to tame a griffin, right?"

"Yes, it's more difficult than expected." Zelin loosened the reins, and the Griffin raised its front paws, flapped its wings, and soared into the air. Soon, Zelin heard an exclamation from the open space in the academy. "You go to comfort the students first. Oh, yes, have you arranged other things for the apprentices recently?"

"Nothing serious. I recently hunted a petrified chicken lizard. Aiden is going to give them a planing lesson. Two days ago, Cohen was telling them the history of demon hunters and the famous master demon hunters in the world. I think it should be clear to them that there have been heroes in the profession they are about to become. It is by no means the farmer’s rumors. They are just cold-blooded mutants." George explained to Zelin with one hand behind him, "I always thought, In the past, the demon hunters were torn apart and their reputations became bad. Part of the reason was that some people deliberately spread the rumors, but there were also scum in the demon hunters, leaving them with a truth. Perhaps only let all the apprentices treat them. The future is full of honor, so as to avoid the indiscriminate killing of innocents as much as possible, and even the situation where the cat school was reduced to a killer organization in the past."

"You are right." Zelin nodded. "In the past, we might just value heavy swordsmanship too much, but some people have learned swordsmanship, but they used them to target humans instead of monsters. Recently, Hundred Flowers Valley is going to conduct a large-scale monster hunting, and Enid found some wizards. And warriors. But I think, since this is a monster hunt with absolute certainty, why can't our apprentices participate? Before they walk out of the academy, they personally experience a battle with monsters, which is comparable to reciting the "Monster Illustrated Book" "Ten times, it makes sense."

"Oh, this is indeed a good opportunity, Zellin." George paused. "Are you still in touch with Francesca?"

"Do you have an opinion on her?"

"After she did these things, of course I have opinions. My brother, there are many kind-hearted girls around you, at least none of them can do that kind of thing." George raised his brows: "Maybe others I don't know, but I know, which one of the money you have developed over the years and the connections you provide for help is not your life in exchange for? As a result, she refused to even tell you and used it for the development of her kingdom. I I am very worried that one day she will betray you for other things."

"Thank you for worrying, George." Zelin sighed, "Don't worry, I know what to do. Let me see this castle. How is it being built?"

"The main part has been completed." George glanced over and jumped to a stone mound, the griffon looking around, leading Zelin along a stone bridge into the castle surrounded by scaffolding in front. "You can't let all the apprentices stay in the open space, or in thatched huts that can't block the cold wind. So I decided to let the craftsmen build the main building first to ensure that I can survive this winter."

Across the stone bridge is a wide courtyard. In the courtyard, you can see the apprentices doing morning exercises on training props. Aiden stood in the middle, instructing the swordsmanship of several apprentices, and pointed out mistakes and irregularities in the movements from time to time. Noting Zelin walking in, he raised his hand and greeted him. Zelin didn't bring the Griffin in, otherwise there will be too many explanations, and there will inevitably be some problems.

"This is the address I picked, and the castle can be built in this valley." George introduced to Zelin as he walked. "In this way, the hills on both sides and the cliffs behind are natural walls, which can save a lot of stone money. There is a canyon in front of the city gate, and the stone bridge is a building abandoned by goblins in the past. There are many mines here. They used to excavate iron ore with their dwarf friends. But unfortunately, after digging a few caves, they found that the iron ore had only one layer on the surface, so it was abandoned. The stone bridge can be used normally after repairing it."

"It couldn't be better."

"In the middle of the valley is the main building of the castle, and I plan to build four towers around it to live in."

"Four seats?" Zelin frowned. "But the college has five."

"Here, I don't want to divide the students into colleges. I want to reform the organization of the Demon Hunters."

"Reform?"

"Yes. In the past, we divided the demon hunters into five different schools artificially based on different fighting methods, and even the Far East Flying Lion School. But I think this is just forcing a gap. Wolf. The school thinks they can do everything, the griffon prefers to be a mage, the bear school thinks that other people don’t have enough sense of glory and are willing to face powerful enemies, the viper school thinks they are the guardians of secrets, the cat school doesn’t see everyone else. , I think they are old antiques who don’t know how to be flexible. Before the fall of Kyle Morhan, the castle was full of contradictions. So, I think that being the case, why can’t the demon hunters be integrated into one? There are only different battles. Way, not the faction that will create internal divisions."

This was a bit beyond Zelin's expectation.

"Will others agree?"

George pursed his lips. "It's hard to tell. This is just my current thinking. If I have the opportunity to let everyone see each other, I am going to raise this matter and see what other people have opinions."

"This is not just building an academy, George." Zelin and his brother walked along the main building of the castle to the back, a wide training ground on the side of the castle. But in some places, it hasn't been completely evened. “It’s best not to make too much changes until this is fully established. If possible, I suggest experimenting in the teaching phase first to see if apprentices who learn different skills will learn different skills because of their different fighting styles. To be close to whom, to be estranged to whom."

"Um...you are right." George nodded. "You and Dandrine are friends, aren't they?"

"Yes."

"Can you ask him to write poems for the masters of demon hunters in the past?" George suggested: "We only tell some apprentices that they don't care at all. If there are some shocking poems, they will definitely take them seriously. . You also know that when we were apprentices, our favorites were hero stories and poems."

"Of course it's okay." Zelin nodded: "I remember he went to Novigrad some time ago." Recalling what Gnaiya had mentioned. "After two days, I will talk to him about it."

Chapter 2247 The Besieged College

"The money you left before is enough."

Strolling by the stable fence, George said: “You will definitely need money next. It’s more valuable to keep it in your pocket than to give it to me. However, it’s best not to put it in other people’s wallets. It’s more reliable than just your own vault."

"I understand, George." Zelin looked at the college that was still being built. It must be said that he does not approve of George's plan, perhaps because he is a person who prefers to follow the traditions of the past. For such an important change, he was a little hard to accept. If the Griffin School disappears, leaving only the Demon Hunter Academy, will he agree? The thought of this made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Compared with the war-torn north, this place is more peaceful and peaceful. The rebels in the empire usually don't enter Tousent. They usually cause riots in the occupied homeland, such as Anglin. Towsonte, who was incorporated into the empire through peaceful negotiations, has never been involved in rebellion and riots, and the locals will not support such actions, because their ruler has always belonged to the Henryetta family.

"George, I received a very strange one...Zelin, are you here?"

Cohen, who came over holding a letter, raised his eyebrows in surprise. "When did you arrive?"

"An hour ago." Leaning on the fence, Zelin looked around with satisfaction. Compared with his somewhat crowded castle, this place is obviously more like an academy. The environment is beautiful, unlike Mahakam where there are bare rocks everywhere. This is enough to accommodate many students, or in other words, more available training facilities can be expanded. Although Mahakam Castle can also be expanded, the scale there is only this. He can never expand the castle outside the city walls.

The dwarves of Mahakam have always been sensitive to territorial issues.

"Your training is very serious, I think, when this castle is built, maybe we can still see the landscape of Kyle Morhan."

"The craftsmen said that in a year's time, the general structure can be completed." Cohen lowered his head and glanced at the signature on the envelope: "This is a letter sent in the name of the Warlock Order, from Lomugne."

"Lomune?"

Zelin took the letter and read it back and forth. After confirming that there were no noteworthy marks on the envelope, he tore open the envelope and took out the paper inside.

"It has been two days since we were cut off from Lomugne for the first time. The city of Lomugne should respond."

Sinide Island, Stairs of the Louscha Palace-

This was originally the lowest level of Aretuza, used to receive visitors and guests. Most of the visitors were forbidden to enter other areas except Roxy. Only now, the authority of the Sorcerer Order can no longer prevent anyone from invading this place, let alone the Nilfgaards who follow the emperor's authority.

The fallen flags on the stairs and the blood flowing from the corpses stained the white square stone bricks, the scorched bushes were faintly burning with some unquenched flames, and the beautiful flowerbeds were dotted with black and red. Tisya stood on the stairs, tidying up her ruffled sleeves and skirts. The dark purple dress was spotless, and there were more than thirty heavily armed corpses lying around.

Tisya raised her head and looked at the long bridge ahead. In front of the Luoxia Palace is a wide open space, the open space is wrapped by a wall, and outside the wall is the stone bridge leading to the city of Goswellen. Every two steps on the stone bridge, a soldier fell on the attacking road. Arrows formed by invisible power penetrated their bodies, and the solid armor was useless in the face of powerful magic.

"Tishaya. I still haven't gotten in touch with Lomugne."

Compared with Tishaya, Margarita looked a little embarrassed next to her, the emerald dress was stained with soot, and her silky golden curly hair became a little messy during the battle.

"Then we have to rely on ourselves. Are the students ready?" Tishaya retracted her gaze. She turned her head and looked at the Los Angeles Palace behind her. The windows of the palace were filled with panicked and helpless faces. . These girls are only nineteen years old on average, and there are almost a hundred of them. Most of them are girls with magic talent found in rural areas by the mentors of the academy. Usually gifted girls will show related talents after the age of fourteen, which is often seen by their parents as an indeterminate omen, abandoned or killed. Tisya has found many such girls over the years, but she never knows how many she has not found.

She must not let the students in the college die at the hands of the Nilfgaards.

"Everyone is packed. I ask them to bring only five days' worth of pasta and put on riding clothes that are convenient for travel." Margarita sighed, and she sat on the stone aside. Most of the warlocks here have already gone to Lomugne. There are very few warlocks on Sinide Island. Only she and Tishaya can participate in this scale of battle. "There are only sixty-three horses. I will let them both ride one. The rest will go to sea by boat."

"Get up." Tisya said calmly: "You are like a village woman by the farmland. Keep calm and graceful, otherwise how to set an example for the students."

Margarita dropped her shoulders helplessly, stood up, and patted her skirt casually.

"We will drive the boat out, auntie." Angola, holding the skinned wooden shield and hand axe, stood behind Margarita, with a bright smile on her face. She and Cahill stayed here after defeating Wigwarts and returning to Sinide Island with Tisya. Milva returned to the Brockleron Forest and lived with the Dryad like before meeting Geralt. "Don't worry, sailing is much easier than riding a horse. Cahill and I will take them to meet you on the coast near Novigrad! But if you want me to say, don't go to Novigrad. How nice is it to find Uncle Demon Hunter’s castle? It must be safe and not far from Lomugne. Why not go there first and then to Lomugne?"

"No, his place is also in the flames of war. Although it has not been affected for the time being, Emperor Enhir will not allow so many warlocks to survive. There are enough warlocks in the empire, and no one will allow the warlocks to form a separate power in the empire. , Even if the number exceeds a certain limit." Tisya arranged her sleeves. "I admire the sorcerers in the South. They are kept as animals and used as consumables, but they are still loyal. Angola, hold out his hand."

"What's wrong... Yeah!"

Tisya didn't know where the pointer he had taken out was severely beaten on Angolan's palm.

"I used to be reluctant to discipline you. From now on, if you dare to call me aunt, I will use magic to prevent you from talking for a year until you remember!"
