Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 320 319. The Demon Hunter’s View of God

Four people and two horses were running on the road, with Xili guiding them the whole way.

Lan En and the three adults were surprised to find that although Xili had no idea where Brugg City was, she could always choose the right one every time she came to an intersection.

This kind of guidance that can directly obtain answers without relying on information and knowledge makes people fully feel the powerful effect of the so-called 'blood of the ancients'.

People tend to chat on the road.

Geralt finally had a chance to ask the questions he had bottled up in Duane Canal last night.

"Old Aisna treats you differently, Lan En."

Geralt raised his head, so Ciri and Vesemir looked at Lann, hoping that he could satisfy their curiosity.

"She said, 'Every creature in this world that lives on a material basis should be grateful to you.' What does this mean? Apart from that one [Hunting Lord], have you done anything famous like this? Why do we have nothing?" Know?"

The horses' hooves pattered on the road, and several people exhaled thick white smoke in the winter morning fog, making it difficult for them to see Lan En's expression clearly.

"I just drove away a monster."

The young man paused.

"With the help of several gods."

The atmosphere suddenly fell into silence, Ciri was excited and surprised, Vesemir's expression was behind her, and Lan couldn't see it.

But Geralt became more straightforward after hearing the news.

"Driving away a monster? With the help of gods? Well, I have to say, Lan En. You are a demon hunter who can tell stories. A few words can make people scratch their heads, but at the same time, this story also makes people feel sad. Lost credibility."

The veteran witcher master who traveled far and wide made the assertion.

"I have never seen a monster whose scope of influence can cover an entire city, let alone a country, and when Aisna described your achievements, she wanted to drag all the lives with her. I have never seen such a monster. monster."

"And the help of 'gods'? When you said this, it made me feel like I was listening to Esna telling me what 'destiny' is."

"They are all illusory things. I have seen people in the village regard the sudden croaking of frogs on rainy days as an oracle, and I have also seen people living in the woods regard the deer-headed spirit as the god of the forest. I have also been there The Meriteli Temple in Elland is the center of the Meriteli faith in the world, but the high priest there admitted to me that no miracles had ever happened. It was just a group of good people gathered together by the teachings to do good deeds."

"What? The one who helps you eradicate a monster that threatens the world is the Father of the Sky? The incarnation of thunder and lightning who hates evil - Cliff? That sect is really not that big."

Geralt spoke in rapid succession, while Lann rode calmly without interrupting.

After Geralt finished speaking, Lan asked calmly.

"It seems that you have finished speaking, Geralt. Now I am a little curious. When talking about the existence of gods, you are far from your usual cold and rational behavior. It even makes people feel a little cynical. The gods make you feel very uncomfortable. good?"

"Most demon hunters have this problem." Vesemir said something behind Lan En's back.

"We have seen too many scenes of monsters harming people and people harming others, so we unconsciously become indifferent and even despise those religions that talk about gods. Because they always seem less useful and make much more money than us."

Lan En nodded, indicating his acceptance of this statement.

"If that's the case, it can be regarded as an occupational disease. But what I want to say to you is... Geralt, gods exist, and monsters that can destroy the world also exist."

"Just like the Esna we saw last night, she can be regarded as the forest god of Broklon. As long as the big forest still exists, she will exist."

"So you are saying" Geralt still maintained a rejection of Lan En's views, "a god who watched his children being massacred by several surrounding countries but could do nothing about it?"

"If the armies of Verden and Brugg directly enter Broklon, then as many as they enter will die, and Eisna won't care at all. The real threat they pose to Eisna is not the army, but the farmers. .”

Lann was correcting Geralt.

"Farmers never go directly into the big forest. They invade Broccolion from the outside in huge numbers, like ants nibbling on biscuits. For wood, they cut down trees. To cultivate land, they set fire."

"The area of ​​Broccolion is getting smaller and smaller due to this encroachment, and Aisna's power is getting weaker and weaker. If I guess correctly, a hundred years ago, the road we are taking now was inside the big forest. .”

"There are only so many tree spirits, and they cannot fully protect the forest. In order to prevent severe infectious diseases from spreading in the forest, Esna mobilized the magic power of the forest to provide the tree spirits with extraordinary immunity. She is too busy now to get away."

"But does this mean that she is just an ordinary creature, Geralt? Admit it, in your long journey you should have seen things that transcend the ordinary, you should have seen those existences."

At this point, Geralt, who was originally cynical, suddenly fell silent.

Shirley, who was sitting in front of him, raised her head in surprise and chirped excitedly.

"Have you seen it, Geralt? Have you really seen God? You were silent because Lan En said it right, is that right?"

Geralt curled his lips and turned his head to the side as Lan En smiled.

Yes, he really saw some extraordinary beings, and that being even saved his and Dandelion's lives.

Dana Mebi, goddess of wilderness and flowers. Humans call her Lefia.

It was nearly ten years ago when he and the famous bard wandered to the easternmost part of the civilized world.

On the edge of the blue mountains that represent the edge of the civilized world, the two of them were attacked and captured by the elves on the mountain. Later, the goddess of the wilderness appeared, and the Elf King let them go directly after communicating with her telepathically.

"really interesting."

Lan En looked at Geralt's turned side face and smiled.

"Farmers in the country believe what they see, but a demon hunter who has truly seen traces of gods rejects the facts."

Xili was still there exclaiming, saying that she was traveling with two people who had really seen gods, and that they might be able to see gods in the future.

Vesemir is silent. He is an old-school demon hunter who believes that seeing is believing and never expresses his position.

"Okay, I admit that there are some otherworldly things in this world, but if you want to say that there is a monster that can threaten all life everywhere and can be killed by people, I still don't believe it."

"Geralt, Geralt"

Lan En chewed the name in his mouth repeatedly in an aria-like tone.

"Your stubbornness can actually make people feel a little cute sometimes. Just imagine this kind of monster."

"Just one look at it will make people go crazy and mutate into water ghosts. Ordinary people will go crazy even when they see those water ghosts. Physical attacks such as bed crossbows and trebuchets are completely ineffective, and witches such as lightning and frost will go crazy. It is completely immune to magic. As long as there is a creature in the world chanting its name, it will not die. If there are many creatures that can chant its name, it will not even be injured. How should we deal with this kind of monster? "

When Lan En described it, it was clearly inland far away from the ocean, but the other three people seemed to smell a fishy sea breeze.

Ciri swallowed nervously, the excitement about the gods had disappeared.

For the little girl, the most terrifying monster she has ever heard of was a manticore or a giant gryphon.

Only Geralt was still stubborn.

"Then, how did you kill that thing?"

Lann glanced at Geralt strangely.

"'Kill'? When did I say that thing was dead?"

The other three people shuddered suddenly and looked at Lan En in disbelief.

"It's just to drive him away, Esna, and many other gods helped to give me the opportunity to drive him away from this world."

After saying this, the three of them let out a sigh of relief.

"Hoo~"*3
