The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"How do you feel?" the professor asked quickly. "Do you feel that you have become more..." His hand waved like a rooster. "Brisk? The world is brighter? Feeling better? Hungry?"

Zelin frowned, and after a few seconds, he shook his head.

"No feeling."

"Are you sure?"

"I'm pretty sure."

"Well, it may be that the potion hasn't worked yet. It will take a long time." The soft-leather cap professor said, touching his chin. "Anyway, good luck, Demon Hunter, if you pass by Osenfurt or Vizima, or if you feel something has changed, you can go to us directly."

"Okay." Zelin glanced at the glass bottle in his hand. "I will."

Seeing the two professors leaving behind, Zelin turned around and put the potion bottle in his pocket.

Maybe he should ask Enid for help to study what these professors have done.

In Robindan Village, Zelin waited for less than half an hour before Zoltan appeared.

"How about, Zoltan?"

"It's ready, Zelin." Zoltan looked around, and after making sure that no humans were following him, he waved to Zelin. "Come with me."

The first thousand and ninety-nine chapters meet the Squirrel Party

The dense forest of the floating port once belonged to an elven city.

The city is centered on the mountain bark at the highest point of the forest. The ruins and ruins of the Elf City can be seen everywhere in the wild virgin forest. The sculptures that have been flattened by wind and rain are hidden in the thick bushes, and the stone slabs laid underground can be vaguely seen from the bottom of the pool under the waterfall. After the humans occupied this place, they relied on the ruins of the past to build a new city, but that city has already been reduced to ashes in the battle for control of the Ponta River Valley for hundreds of years, and now only Kazakhstan stands on the east side of the valley. Ji Fortress.

Standing at the top of the hillside, the ruins in the rock can vaguely see the outline of the courtyard back then. Under the cover of the creeper, the ruins are almost completely integrated with the rocks. The only thing that persists in the wind and rain is a sculpture. A human male lies on his side, holding an elf female in his arms.

"This place, I feel like a bunch of ants crawling on my ass." Zoltan patted his pants, he followed the gaze of the demon hunter, and looked at this stone sculpture that has been hundreds of years old. "Ah, Craignan and Laura Doren of Lorde. This could have become a symbol of the peaceful integration of humans and elves, and could have represented a peaceful and inclusive world. Now there are elves who come here to offer flowers, In memory of Laura they were killed by humans."

"Humans killed them."

"I don't want to discuss the inevitable connection between history, legend and victors." Zoltan mumbled. "But I know the result. Lord's Craignan was killed by his compatriots-humans, and Laura Doren was also caught and killed by humans. Why is this all? Why? Some people think that this union that represents racial peace is a betrayal of one's own race? I am not a human, nor an elf. As a dwarf, I really cannot understand this kind of thinking."

"Jealous, arguing, or hostile." Zelin shrugged. "The Squirrel Party wants to meet here?"

"This is the point of contact." Zoltan walked to a place surrounded by pebbles, bent down, and picked up a nearby wooden branch. "The Squirrel Party tried to recruit me, but I refused. I told them that I would deliver food and water to them in Vizima. It doesn't mean that I would be willing to hack and slay humans indiscriminately with them. Before leaving, tell me this method. If you want to contact them, you can walk near the statue, light a bonfire, and see the fire, and they will appear."

The flame ignited, and before long, two heavily armed dwarves and two elves who put arrows on the bowstrings came out from the nearby hillside.

"This is really surprising." The leading dwarf said looking at Zoltan, then looked at the Demon Hunter. "Have you finally decided to join us? What's the matter with this demon hunter, your friend? I never knew that another demon hunter would be willing to join the squirrel party."

"I'm not here to join you." Zoltan waved his hand. "It is this demon hunter who wants to see Eofis."

"He wants to see Eofis?" The dwarf raised his head and looked at Zelin. "Wait, I heard that he helped Rolledo to kill an octopus monster yesterday? Wouldn't he help Rolledo to kill Iopheus today? For a bonus."

"I came to Eorpheus because there is a very important thing related to you." Zelin stretched out a finger. "I didn't kill the octopus monster for Ronald's bounty, but because it would cause great harm. Ronaldo can't pay a price that can buy me. To be honest, I'll come to Eofis, It's because of an elf named Silang. I know he has been captured, and I want to find his whereabouts."

The Squirrel Party has no basis for trust in him. In this case, it is better to speak out your own purpose directly. Keeping your mouth shut and playing dumb puzzles will only bring more suspicion. Besides, this is not information worth concealing for him. The people in Floating Port have long known that Zelin wants to find Xi Lang.

Hearing Zelin's words, the two dwarves turned around and looked at the elves behind them. One of the elves looked at the demon hunter in confusion and took a step forward.

"Do you know where Shi Lang is?"

"I don't know, but I want to know."

"Why are you looking for Xi Lang?"

"Someone asked me to rescue him."

"Who?"

"It's a letter, like one of you, because it's written in ancient Chinese."

The elf suddenly changed his language: "Thenemorc? N’eateamme? (Where is the letter? What did it say?

"The letter is not with me. I will not carry such a dangerous letter with me. No need to test me, Elf. mehenLlingecoenn (I know ancient Chinese)."

Zelin didn't say anything about Francesca. The squirrel party elves still insisting in the forest have no good feelings for Francesca, and mentioning her name will only add fuel to the fire. Although Zelin was very curious, why Enid would want to save Lang. Release goodwill to the remaining squirrel party? Or is there another picture? He didn't know, because the elven warlock had disappeared again. Since last year, she often left suddenly, and then returned after a period of time, without telling Zelin what she had done again. Of course, Zelin didn't ask much. She has her own things to do, especially in this chaotic age. Since she didn't ask Zelin for help, it should be because the Demon Hunter couldn't help. That being the case, Zelin wouldn't ask anything more to add confusion to her.

"Well, come with us, Demon Hunter." The elf breathed a sigh of relief. "But you must be blindfolded, and we will take you to see Eofis."

"He is my friend, you don't have to treat him like this." Zoltan argued. "He will not betray anyone."

"This is the rule, we must be careful."

"It doesn't matter, Zoltan." Zelin waved his hand. "Come on, let us not waste time here. I want to see Eofis as soon as possible, and you had better take me there as soon as possible. I have heard some news about Shiran, if he is right, he About to be sent to Vizima to be tried by the Regency Council."

The elf covered Zelin's eyes with a black cloth, and then led him into the dense forest. Perhaps they thought that a piece of cloth could completely cover their whereabouts, but Zelin could still picture the path they had traveled in his mind. Because there was only one small path away from the hillside, Zelin imagined in his mind where they went as far as possible based on a certain place.

It took about half an hour to walk, during which the elf took them around a certain place before heading to the destination. When the demon hunter felt that the nearby air was obviously much colder, he heard the voice of another elf.

"Stop!"

Then came a lot of small footsteps.

"Who did you bring back, Dorne?"

"A demon hunter," said the elf who led Zelin. "He wants to see Eofis."

"Devil hunter?" The slow pace surrounds the demon hunter. "Warriors, assassins, mutants, can resist bows with swords. Now, such a powerful warrior has come to us, take off his black cloth, and let me hear what he has to say."

Zelin heard an elf walking to his side, and then the rope buckle behind his head loosened, and the light reentered his eyes.

"Eofis?" Zelin rubbed his forehead and looked at the elf standing in front of him. Then he found that he knew him. "Yavin? Why are you here?"

"I said, we will meet again." Yaiwen looked at the demon hunter who didn't show much surprise in front of him. "You want to see Eofis, why?"

Zoltan told Zelin that Yaiwen had also arrived at the floating port. Zelin thought he might see him again, but he didn't expect to see him so soon.

"Xi Lang is one of you, isn't it?" Ze Lin moved his wrist. This is a spacious cave. Within sight, there are at least seventeen members of the Squirrel Party, including dwarves and elves. "He was captured by the humans in the floating harbor. Do you know about this?"

Yaiwen frowned slightly. "How do you know?"

"I have met with the commander of the floating port, Rorydo." Zelin replied. "He said that Shiran was found when he was punting someone across the blockade on the river, and he was caught. But my real concern is not about this, Yaiwen. I want to know that Shiran was escorted by boat. Are those who go to the west of the floating port the ones who go to assassinate the king?"

Yaiwen admitted without any hesitation.

"Yes, we escorted an assassin through the blockade of the floating port to La Varetti. Judging from the latest news, the Assassin succeeded."

"Who is the Assassin, a demon hunter named Buren? The Cat School?" Zelin asked. "Where is he now?"

"There is indeed some news, but why should I tell you, Demon Hunter? Everyone knows that you have a good personal relationship with Foltest, but Foltest signed the decree to form the blue iron guard. Against us, his death is not a bad thing for us." Yaiwen asked rhetorically. "Give me a reason to disclose the news of the Assassin to you."

"Stop posing with me, Yaiwen." Zelin shook his head. "I know what you want to say to me, you want me to do something for you, and then in exchange, you will tell me the news. And, you really think Foltest’s death will give you Bringing an advantage? No, Rogliedo of Floating Harbor is using the assassination of the king to inspire the townspeople, arm them, and prepare to start a war against you. Many rumors say that the Squirrel Party participated in the assassination of the king, no matter what happens next, Tamoria Whoever sits on the throne will not sit back and watch an organization that might participate in the killing of the king survive. The North will unite and use more troops to completely strangle the Squirrel Party within a few years. Your best choice now is to take the opportunity to use you. There are few chips left in hand in exchange for better materials, intelligence, and environment to deal with the next ever-changing world."
