The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"I'm just saying that I have seen the Salamander Gang in Vizima."

"Then, this is a clue." Triss held her chin and meditated: "The Salamander Gang is headquartered in Vizima. We can investigate who hired them."

"It sounds like troubles are getting more and more." Eskell sighed and looked at the others. "So, what shall we do now?"

"What to do? What else to do, of course, to take a good rest." Triss bent down and let out a long sigh, she beckoned to Geralt. "I have to go to the top floor to rest. Anyway, don't bother me with anything today, anything. Oh, yes, Geralt, please go and prepare some healing potions for me. I'm with Sa Fula suffered some injuries in the battle. I will be waiting for you in the bedroom on the top floor of the castle."

Chapter 1533: The Abnormal Movement of the Flame Rose

The battle is over, but the work of the demon hunters is not over yet.

Because of the previous battle with wild hunting, they decided to continue to recuperate in the castle. Instead of following the usual practice, they went on the road after the snow melted in the Kyle Morkhan Valley, looking for a new commission. Of course, there are also some reasons, because Zelin's rewards to everyone after the battle can make them live easily and comfortably for several months. As a result, these demon hunters who had been considering their livelihoods in the past and had to accept commissions for the bread and money to fight against the evil creatures rarely gave themselves a holiday collectively. After all, no one is qualified to force these people to fight dangerous monsters on time and on time, and enter the forest and crypts to look for evil spirits and ghosts.

The Salamander Gang chose a great time to attack. It stands to reason that this castle should be uninhabited in April. But they certainly didn't expect the past decades of practice to change in this year, so that they had to leave dozens of corpses in Kyle Morhan and fled in a hurry.

"Why, Triss can rest on the top of the tower while we clean the corpses in the courtyard?"

Lambert carried the corpse of the mob on his shoulders and walked to the trailer on the side. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and complained.

They must clean up the corpses, no matter how cold Kyle Morhan is, but in June and July, the untreated corpses are prone to plague. Moreover, they have to leave for nearly a year, and will not return until at least December. No one wants to let their winter residence lie full of rotting corpses and bones.

"If you can complain less, our work will be almost complete." Eskell threw a corpse onto the trailer and said to Lambert. "When the cleanup here is finished, we have to go to the forest outside to see if the thugs who escaped have come back. They may want to wait for us to leave before returning to Kyle Morkhan to steal things."

"What about this wall?" Renne stood aside, pointing to the wall that had been blown up by Zafra's magic. "When will we plug this wall?"

"Blocked? Why block?" Lambert shook his head. "Don't forget, when we went to the river, we had to go out from the gate of the city, a long way around. I wanted to open a new gate on the wall for a long time. Please, it's just a gap. I'll talk about it later. Right."

"Don't you worry that someone will come in and steal things from here?" Renn asked confused.

In response, Escal and Lambert looked at each other.

"Rene, what do you think is worth stealing in the castle? You don't really think that your warehouse is full of gold just because you have been attacked by this group of thugs once?" Lambert sneered. "Please, figure it out. This is a dilapidated castle. It is so remote that no one will come, and no one will pay attention. Just like Vesemir said, there are only a few good swords and dried snow foxes. Skins and wild boar skins, some potions that are meaningless to ordinary people. So, you don’t have to worry that thieves will come in through here. They will be frightened by the corpses we threw outside."

"Well, okay, but I believe Vesemir will urge you to repair the city wall sooner or later." Wren stretched out a finger. "But, why are the only three of us carrying the bodies here? Well, because Geralt is going to console his warlock, Vesemir wants to count the losses, but what about Zelin? Where did he go? I didn't see it. Him."

"He is in the living room, talking with a friend through a telescope." Askel carried a new corpse on his back. "Well, you two, stop complaining. Work quickly. We must solve these problems before dark and throw them out in the woodland. The wild wolf and the water ghost will take care of the rest. "

Maybe Zelin is just sitting in the dining room, holding a telescope to talk to some people, but this is by no means a simple and easy thing. He got too much news, and too little.

"It's nice to meet you, Ignatz, long time no see. Of course, if you can bring me more good news, I will be happier." Opposite the telescope, the Ebin is crossing his hands together , Sitting behind the mahogany desk. "You would actually use a telescope to find me. I guess there should be something very important?"

Originally, Zelin should have surveyed near the castle, in case anyone else is plotting wrongdoing. But before he set off, the telescope lit up. The demon hunter thought it would be Francesca, because only she knew what chaotic energy frequency to use to get in touch with the telescope in Zelin's hand. But when he opened the telescope, he unexpectedly discovered that it was the businessman.

"I'm sorry to contact you in this way. I didn't see you when I went to your castle." The Ebin nodded to him. "The queen of Hundred Flower Valley generously allowed me to use magic equipment to contact you. That's right, I have some, possibly more important news, to tell you."

"More important?" Ze Lin asked suspiciously.

This was allowed by Francesca. He knew that the Aibin's branch in Aden was very close to Baihua Valley. If he really had any important news, he would be able to reach Baihua Valley in one day and one night. However, knowing that this was the contact that the elf opened for the Aibin, made him feel a little relieved, at least this communication method is still safe and confidential.

"Yes, because I don't know."

The Aibin hesitated and began to tell Zelin what he had heard during this period.

A few days ago, the Knights of the Flame Rose recruited many people from all over the continent. From Aden to Kodwin, from the Sidaris Peninsula to Kerviel in the Arctic, you can see the recruitment information of the Knights of the Flame Rose everywhere. Master Jaques of Adburg announced that his knights do not only exist as a knights, but at the same time, they will fight for the benefit of mankind, including sweeping monsters, hunting the squirrel party, and protecting people from monsters. Invasion. This may sound similar to what the demon hunters are doing, but more importantly, the Flame Rose Knights will not ask for compensation, and they have a strict organization.

"Sounds like a group of Ike knights." Zelin curled his lips. "Okay, then? This doesn't seem to be an urgent matter."

"A few days ago, I saw in Kerviel that the Knights placed a large number of iron ore orders. These orders were enough to arm a powerful army. All the people they recruited were concentrated in Tamoria. Lenovo. Before that, the White Rose Knights' attack on your castle, I am worried that this is a precursor to the next attack."

"Well... it sounds a bit bad."

"Do you remember that when the White Rose Knights attacked, the Adenian soldiers who were rescued by Mr. George and went to the castle to assist in the defense?"

"Of course I remember." Zelin nodded. "I remember they went to the Battle of Brunner after defeating the Knights of the White Rose, and then came back. I think George has a good relationship with them. They should live in the dwarf village near the castle now?"

After the World War, these more than a dozen soldiers who used to be the Adenian Special Forces did not intend to return to serve under King Dermavin who abandoned them. They came to find George because it was George who chased them and the refugees from the Squirrel Party. Rescued. In this regard, Zelin told George that he could use the money in the castle as the salary of these more than ten mercenaries.

"Yes, you came to me before and asked me to find something to intervene in the Knights of the Flame Rose. I succeeded in getting on the line of Princess Yada. Her Royal Highness accepted my sponsorship, and I also successfully recommended one for George The soldier served by the husband entered the Knights. Ms. Leila, Master Jaques of Adburg agreed to let her be a member of the Knights."

"Very good, thanks for your hard work, Ignatz." Zelin nodded. "It must have cost a lot of money, right?"

"Maybe it is, but it is not important. If we can have business dealings with the future Queen of Tamoria, then it will be very good for us to start business in Tamoria. Thanks to you in Tamoria. Relationship, otherwise it would be difficult for me to meet Princess Yada." The Aibin people looked around cautiously. Perhaps for a Southerner, especially a non-aristocratic commoner, even a businessman, they rarely use it. The possibility of magic equipment and services. "That's all I want to say. I hope you can be careful. You are my biggest business partner. Your sponsorship funds and your relationship. If your castle is attacked or attacked, my business will be Will be affected."

Zelin knew that because of his relationship with Francesca, the Ebin could contact and negotiate with other nobles in the name of a certain noble friend.

"Well, thank you for your reminder, I will pay attention."

Finally, the Aibin people discussed the recent financial situation and the next development plan with Zelin. This should have been in June this year when Zelin went to Vanderbilt to have an interview with the Aibin people, but now that there is With the telescope, the demon hunter doesn't need to take another trip.

The news of the Aibin people can be said to be important, but it can also be said to be insignificant.

As a newly established knight group, they must show some deeds and deeds that can make them famous to attract more sponsorship. With more sponsorship, they can form a stronger army to wait for the kings and nobles to draw in.

The Ebin told Zelin that many members of the Knights were wandering knights after the fall of the White Rose Knights. If there are enough of them, they might really be able to influence the plans and ideas of the leader of the Knights, Master Jaques. . However, the Ebin let Laila join the Knights, so Zelin has at least two people in the Knights of the Flame Rose who can inquire about the news, one is Laila and the other is Siegfried.

Perhaps, after he solves Willen's troubles, he should go to Vizima to see what kind of organization the newly formed Knights of the Flame Rose is.

The first thousand five hundred and thirty-four chapter A's letter

Novigrad--

The main square is the most prosperous place in Novigrad. This is the center of the city. The famous Vevadi Bank headquarters is on this square. There is also the famous Kingfisher Tavern, a place famous for performing operas for free to citizens at night, as well as two blacksmith shops, a flower shop, A bookstore and stalls around the square. The aroma on the square is tangy, and the fragrance on the portable grill is mouth-watering. Those cargo ship passengers from all over the world will inevitably disembark in Novigrad when they are going to the north. They brought exotic treasures, exquisite delicacies, beautiful silk clothes, and expensive and exquisite jewelry. Here, what I hear is not the harsh noise, but the cheerful music that reverberates all day long. Several bands in the city-sea parrots, golden bulls, blue beaches, and many less famous bands-play various instruments under the eternal flint pillars in the main square.

This stone pillar is indeed worthy of such treatment.

Although a plague struck the city half a year ago, the Eternal Fire church here handled these matters well, and the city was not greatly affected. The eternal fire has become the protector of the city. Humans, elves, dwarves, and halflings live here, and they have created great wealth for the city. It is reported that Bishop Chapei vetoed the city council’s proposal to establish non-human settlements on the grounds that the separation of humans and non-humans will cause contradictions and estrangements between different ethnic groups, which is not conducive to the rapid development of the city. Development.

The hem of the windbreaker flicked against Jaques's boots, and the metal iron boots stepped on the water on the ground, causing a wave of waves.

Not long ago, there was a light rain, and there was a little water around the main square. This is the case in coastal cities. It will rain at any time, and then it will soon be clear, and then there will be water, muddy roadways and overhead. Drying rack. Maybe, sooner or later, the city will build a more complete drainage system. This day may be very fast, or it may not be proposed until many, many years later.

Of course, the premise of all this is that there are still people who have the opportunity to comment.

Jaques flicked the dust off his collar, rubbed his boots on the steps in front of him, raised his hand and pushed open the brown wooden door of the bookstore.

"Oh, welcome, guest." The bookstore owner who was cleaning the shelves with a feather duster noticed Jaques walking in. He pushed the round glasses on the bridge of his nose, showing a gentle smile. "Are you going to buy any books? We have everything in this store. If you don't have one, you can leave a name. I will try to find it for you within a few days. Books are good things, they contain knowledge, and knowledge can make people gain wealth , So welcome to my treasure house."

Originally, glasses belonged to intellectuals. Only professors and scholars could wear glasses. But later, people discovered that they don’t need expensive gems to make them. There are more people producing glass, so the price is cheaper and everyone wears them. Closed eyes.

"I'm here to ask you something." Jaques took out a folded piece of paper from his arms. "I want to store this paper in the bookstore."

The bookstore owner showed a confused look, but one thing he understood well was that the man in front of him was not here to buy the book.

Not many people like to do something unknown to strangers who suddenly appear. This is likely to cause trouble for themselves and cause bad luck. Just like some customs in the past, don’t charge for inexplicable things, because it may be brought by the devil, which will bring curses and bad luck to yourself and the people around you, but it is just like the process of many customs disappearing, Jia The money bag in Kquis's hand solved the problem very well.

"Three years from now." Jaques said while holding the paper in a red book. "Three years from now, there will be a man with white hair, short braids, golden eyes and long slender pupils. When he came to the bookstore, he had a wolf head badge on his chest. When he arrived, tell him that an old friend left a message for him here."

"White hair, vertical pupil, and wolf head badge?" The bookstore owner touched his chin, glanced at Jaques, who was wearing a windbreaker, covering most of his body, and then glanced at the heavy money bag in his hand. "Well, I don't know there are such weird people in this world, but I will try to remember that when that man arrives, I will give him the red book?"
