The Divine Hunter

"Get out! The running dog, the enemy of nature!" An angry roar came from the depths of the cave, like the voice of an old woman magnified thousands of times, with hysteria and madness.

A turbulent air flow gushed out with the sound, causing the stalactites at the top of the cave to vibrate left and right, and the water below the cave swayed in circles of ripples.

But this did not scare everyone away, they waded through the central waterway and entered the deepest part of the cave.

The light became even dim, and the faint light illuminated a bloated giant creature: it burrowed out of the gray rock wall and the top of the cave.

The most eye-catching piece of the meat mountain, located in the center, was shaped like a heart and was still beating.

Its pulsation seemed to possess some invisible magic, and the entire cave responded to it, dropping gravel and dust constantly.

At this moment, it was covered with a pile of rough and hard bark, and there were pale yellow wood whiskers on the bark, like a layer of spiked armor for itself.

The pendants between the witchers' necks vibrated violently, and the vicinity was filled with magic, perhaps this strange shape was the creation of magic.

"Burls..." Leto said.

"It's obviously the heart of the tree..." Roy corrected, "it just connects to the root of the huge banyan tree at the top of the hill." There are also thick roots around the heart of the tree, which slowly wriggle like living things. .

"Get out!" The old woman's voice rang again, echoing in the cave. Only then did everyone realize that the guy who spoke was the bark-covered heart in front of him.

"Get out of my territory now, or else, you will be in so much pain!" In the howl, the roots of the tree were suddenly pulled out from the rock wall, and the pythons hovered in the air, with sharp teeth aimed at the demon hunters.

"Ms. Tree Heart... You have a little misunderstanding." Roy's vision, the surface of the tree center was covered with a layer of light green energy, a layer of natural camouflage, he could only see the same as the wild big banyan tree on the ground The description, can not see the true identity of the heart of the tree. "We are witchers, not the lackeys of anyone you say."

"Lie! Ever since you entered the Whispering Hills, I've smelled the same stench as those three ugly, vicious bitches, and I'll never forget it even if I turned to ashes! You killed my guards!" Heart screamed, "If you want to survive, get me out of the cave as soon as possible!"

"What if we don't agree?" Serret was a little irritated by her attitude, pointed the tip of her sword at her, and retorted bluntly, "Your subordinates, the werewolves and the group of Andereggers are all dead. ,

Dare to make threats? "

"You can try it!" Shu Xin was still confident, "Is it the sword on your back that is fast, or is it my cave that collapses fast!"

Everyone's heart froze.

"Don't get excited, ma'am, does the breath that makes you uncomfortable come from this thing?" Roy pulled Lasseret's arm and threw the dagger in his arms to the heart of the tree.

The heart of the tree suddenly fell into a violent rage, controlling the roots of the tree to whip the weapon in a gust of wind and rain.

There was a continuous "crackling" sound in the cave.

The witchers took a step back so as not to be affected.

After a while, the heart of the tree finished venting, and the hard ground was beaten with a large thick arm and deep marks.

The witcher took a deep breath. How much hatred did she have with Madam Lin Zhong?

"Ms. Treeheart, do you believe us now? If we were the three 'bitch' people, we would never let you spoil this so-called holy weapon."

"Then why did you find them here with their belongings? How did you know my whereabouts?" Tree Heart's tone was still full of suspicion.

"We did make a deal with Mrs. Forest, but it wasn't what you thought..." Phillius stood up and explained their experience again, focusing on the boy Karl.

"The three old witches used Carl to threaten us, and we were forced to go to the Whispering Hill to hunt sacrifices for them, but the account still had to be settled." Roy explained carefully, "I saw it in a book. Regarding your description. The book says that you were sealed by three old witches, right? There is no doubt that you and them are absolute mortal enemies, and the enemy of the enemy is a friend... That's why we came to contact you."

"You want to cooperate with me to deal with Mrs. Lin Zhong?"

"Yes, at least teach them a lesson." Oaks said fiercely, showing his white teeth, that he was most disgusted by others' threats.

The heart of the tree slowly swayed its rhizomes, and pondered,

"We'll talk about the cooperation later. Witcher, what book do you mean by the book you just mentioned? Where did you find it?" Tree Heart's voice became strange.

"The Omniscient She," Roy said, "we found it in the home of a disabled man in Willen Marsh."

"Do you believe the records in the book?" Shuxin sighed, "Let me point out a mistake to you. Those three vicious women joined forces to destroy my body, but they couldn't seal my soul. Yes. I took the initiative to choose to attach to this sacred tree, the whole of Velen, it is the only existence that can bear my soul." The heart of the tree paused, "Unfortunately, I can no longer escape from the banyan tree since then."

The natural incarnation that saved her soul is now her cage.

Although Shuxin couldn't make an expression, a sadness and helplessness pervaded her whole body.

Several people listened and slowly retracted the silver sword.

"What else is mentioned in that book?"

"The book also mentions your identity - the mother and creator of the Lady in the Forest, the oldest existence of Willen - the fairy mother, because you lost your mind and wanted to bloodbath the whole Willen, they killed you together. "

When the witcher's voice fell, Shuxin suddenly laughed, and her laughter echoed throughout the cave, but there was no joy in the laughter, only irony.

"If I were their mother, and created such a bastard with an ugly appearance and an evil heart, I would have been killed by the big banyan tree long ago, and I would have cut myself off." Shu Xin's tone was extremely mean, containing deep hatred, "How dare they dare to Putting gold on your face? Stop me, a guardian of nature, from destroying Willen? What a touching and glorious deed!"

Treeheart growled, "They deserve it?! This old bastard deserves it?"

The witchers all shook their heads.

The heart of the tree continued,

"That Whisperer, do you know? She is one of the three sisters, who likes to cut off human ears and use magic to make her ears and eyes; Weaver, who likes to use human hair and weave it into a light gauze to cover her whole body. It's the bloated ** of the folds; the cook, who often cooks broth, invites her sisters to dinner, and is occasionally joined by other messed up evil creatures."

This Roy knew that the notorious Wild Hunt was among the evil creatures.

"What do you think—" Shuxin slowed down and said word by word, "What kind of good stuff are those three things?"

"So, Ms. Shuxin, you are not the fairy mother who created the lady in the forest, and the three sisters are not the gods who bless the safety of the people of Velen as they seem?"

"It's good that you know." Shuxin suddenly let out a sigh of relief, "I'm sorry, I haven't chatted with people so happily for a long time, I'm a little lost."

"We can understand..." Leto nodded, and if they were trapped in a big tree for hundreds of years, they would go crazy. "Then what is your identity? Are you willing to help us deal with the old witch?"

"Everyone, if you are willing to listen patiently to a 'monster' nonsense, then I would also like to share with you some truths about Willen." Tree Heart paused, and the five pricked up their ears.

"I am a member of the ancient Druid ring, guarding the forests and swamps of Velen, maintaining the natural and ecological balance, you can call me Kungulan. And the old witch, the three sisters, or the lady of the forest , they are the otherworldly monsters that descended on Velen during the first meeting of the celestial spheres, and they can draw magic from the land and manipulate the fate of nearby creatures."

"They coveted the land of Velen, so they joined forces to destroy my body. They sealed my soul in this banyan tree, and the nature I once served sheltered me, so that I would no longer be conspiracy by the old witch. trick."

"Because of the death of the guardian, the mother of nature has been in anger for a long time, creating this murmur hill, liberating the wildness in the animal body, venting her anger recklessly, and at the same time preventing the minions of the three sisters from approaching me and hurting me!"

"Now, Demon Hunter, since we have all suffered the vicious injury of the lady in the forest, and several of you are willing to cooperate, then please grant a request."

"What request..."

"Let me free from the heart of this banyan tree that I live in."
