The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"I only have Johanna's name." Johanna chuckled slightly: "I am Johanna, and Johanna is me. In the name of Akarat, the name is meaningless. Could it be that if I change my name, I am not me? But , You haven’t told me what are you going to do after investigating the Wizarding Club? Go to see the scholar? I remember you said that you came to investigate the Wizarding Club to protect a young girl, she is your relative Right?"

"No, she is not." Zelin shook her head: "But she is a good girl, working hard for this world, she is very hard, but no one can replace her, I think the only thing I can do is to concentrate on her When fighting for the world, protect her from danger, and keep those who want to plot her away from her."

"Save the world?" Johanna raised her sword eyebrows: "How to do it?"

On the way, Zelin told Johanna what they had done in Tristram and Kaltim. Apart from his own affairs, the remaining Zelin did not conceal it, and there is no need to conceal it at all. With the caravan and the fleet, news from Kartim will soon come to Westmar.

"Are you going to deal with the Hell Lord immediately after investigating the Wizarding Club?"

"I don't know what I can do against the **** lord." Zelin shrugged: "However, I will do something within my power. This is one of the most powerful enemies I have ever encountered. Luckily. The thing is, I have survived before. Maybe, there is really a goddess of luck paying attention to me."

"Can I walk with you?" Johanna asked: "Hell is always the root of corruption. If Azmodan, the king of sin, is already under the Bastine fortress, I will never ignore it."

"Aren't you planning to go to Kartim first?"

Zelin had mentioned Kane to Johanna before, and the latter had always wanted to see the old scholar.

"After I defeat the **** demon, I will have enough time to understand the story of Nephitian and the fall of Zakarum." Johanna smiled confidently: "But I think, you didn't talk to me. To be honest."

"Huh?"

"We have been in Westerma for almost two weeks, but you said, one month?" Johanna suddenly raised her tone and asked jokingly: "How did you spend half a month from Karti Came to Westmar? Could it be that you have wings on your back and can fly in the sky? Or that you are actually an angel who came to the world to save us? That’s why you can fly directly after defeating Belial Westmar?"

"It would be great if I had wings on me." Zelin dismissed Johanna's question with another joke: "In this way, those seasick friends will definitely envy me, but I have to be careful. ."

Johanna and Zelin laughed together.

During the conversation and chat, at noon the next day, they saw the outer wall of Kings Harbour.

Chapter 2711: The Ghost of History

In Kingsport City, it was not surprising that it was Adelin who greeted Zelin.

"You look good." Zelin looked up and down at Adelin, who was wearing a plate armor. "Now you are like a guard. How is the situation in King Port?"

"Half of the people want to buy me, and the remaining half want to kill me." Adelin said briskly: "But it doesn't matter. The important thing is that they are afraid of me. In the past, they would not care. What a captain of the guard wants to do. Let them continue to panic. Soon they won’t even have the chance to be afraid! They have never given it to anyone in the past, and I will not give them a chance now."

"Pay attention to safety, Adelin." Zelin patted Adelin's arm: "You must live to kill more enemies. Don't force yourself. You are a good person, and you have a sense of justice and can help more. A multiplayer warrior. Although your battlefield may not be on the sword, it is as important as other people's battles. From my experience, you can always meet stronger and stronger enemies. Before that, you You have to protect yourself to get rid of those more assholes."

"I'm not that impulsive, man." Adelin chuckled slightly, "You are here to find the orphanage, right? When I came here three days ago, I paid attention to the orphanage first. It’s near the city wall. I’m surprised that it has been abandoned for so long and no one has ever taken it down."

"Maybe, it’s different from what we expected. The orphanage hasn’t been abandoned at all. People in the Wizarding Club have been using it. Tell me the specific location. I can’t wait to see if the Wizarding Club is here. What is hidden."

"Come with me." Adelin called out: "I'm here to take you. It's very remote."

Kingsport is as prosperous as Westmar. In the past, the Kingdom of Westmar was founded on nine human tribes conquered by Lakis with military power. These tribes established city-states and loyal to the kings who lived in Westmar. Each city has its own generals, who pledge allegiance to the king. It can be said that every city is the capital of their place for the locals. Westermar’s port faces Westermar Bay, mainly for ships heading to Ensting, while King’s Port faces the South China Sea. Merchant ships heading for the Skovos Islands and the Twin Seas come and go in the port. Endless.

The orphanage is a dilapidated wooden house, which is incompatible with the stone buildings in the city. The outside of the house is a circle of stone retaining walls. Many stones on the wall have disappeared and were moved by nearby residents to build their own houses. The metal fence gate was rusty, opening a gap. Looking over the gate, green weeds grew between the stone slabs in the courtyard.

Pushing the door open, Zelin paced into the courtyard of the orphanage. The scale of the orphanage on the ground does not seem to be large. There are two houses and a long house that also serves as the main hall and dining hall. Next to the long house, some stones surround the outline of the garden, but no flowers can be seen in it for a long time. Only knee-high weeds.

"I remember you once said that even people from the Thieves Guild are not willing to come here?" Following Zelin, Johanna asked Adelin, "From my point of view, there doesn't seem to be anything to be afraid of here. What are you worried about?"

"There are rumors that there are demons here." Edlin shrugged: "But I have lived in Kingsport for so many years, and I never knew that there are demons in the city, but you better be careful. The people in the Thieves Guild are A group of bastards, but also a group of bold criminals, few things can scare them."

Zelin stepped forward and walked along the wooden steps to the long house. The demon hunter lowered his head and looked at the door handle. After thinking for a few seconds, he stepped back and looked for small rocks on the ground nearby.

"What's the matter?" Adelin asked unclearly, "What are you looking for?"

"Something that won't hurt even if it is thrown out and destroyed.....found it." As he said, Zelin picked up a stone.

He stepped back to the two of them, staring at the doorknob, shaking his wrist, the stone ran an arc in midair and hit the doorknob.

Adelin opened his eyes wide.

After a few seconds, the stone fell to the ground.

"Just now, did that stone suddenly disappear for a few seconds?" Adelin rubbed his eyes: "I seemed to see it hit the doorknob and then disappeared suddenly? Then did it appear on the ground? "

"I guess that's the reason, Edlin, look at this ruin, a long house with a dilapidated roof and a collapsed roof, but with a complete wooden door and spotless doorknobs. How is this possible?" Zelin's fingers Pointing to the long house, and then to the garden on the side: "The walls of the retaining wall have been removed so much by the nearby residents, but the guardrails of the garden are intact? This is really not like a place that has been abandoned for many years. It should be there. Looks like. So I suspect that there may be many spell traps here."

"Perhaps we should find a Fasgelli mage?" Johanna suggested: "Although they like to hide and hide behind other people when they are in danger, no one knows this aspect better than them when it comes to spells. Knowledge."

"Johanna, on the way here today, I have been thinking, if there are illusions here, how can the wizards avoid traps threatening themselves? When I dealt with them in Kartim, they used illusions to cover their whereabouts. So when I heard Adelin told me that there was a problem with this abandoned orphanage, I thought that they might repeat the same tricks."

In Kartim, when Li Min and his party went to Kasin Outpost for the first time, the wizard would use illusions to create a high cliff to cover the road. Thanks to Li Min, who happened to spot the witch Elena wandering in the desert. Elena is best at illusion and transformation spells. After helping her clear the wizardry spells, she opened this channel.

"But what does it have to do with the illusion in front of us?" Johanna asked back: "Even if we know this is a conspiracy by the Wizarding Society, the illusion will not disappear by itself."

"So I'm still carrying this." Zelin took out the scroll he found in Mouse Lane in Westmar: "I think the only thing I can stack with the treasure is the key..."

When Zelin unrolled the scroll and chanted the jerky spell on it, the orphanage suddenly changed its appearance.

The door panel of the long house disappeared, but through the entrance, Zelin could directly see the situation inside. There is no worn-out furniture, no dust or cobwebs, only a stone carved altar placed inside, covered with dried blood. A few white candles surround the edge of the inclined circular altar, the ground is covered with dark red blankets, and the corners and cabinets are filled with piles of skulls.

The other two houses in the courtyard have completely disappeared without a trace, and one can only imagine that there was once a house here on the remaining foundation. The guardrail of the garden has also disappeared, and only the weeds are still growing stubbornly on the spot.

"...Can you see it?" Zelin turned around.

"No." Adelin shook his head: "Nothing has changed."

"What about you?" Zelin looked at Johanna.

The Crusaders scanned the surroundings: "Should I pretend to see some changes?"

"I understand. It seems that this key can only be used by one person." Zelin put away the scroll: "You are waiting for me here, don't be surprised no matter what happens."

The demon hunter walked to the long house, and the next moment, under the gaze of the two, his figure disappeared into the air.

The wizards did not leave much on the altar here, but in a storage box, Zelin found a record of hunting witches in Kingsport. This diary has no name, but it describes people's prejudice and fear of witches.

At the end of the diary, Zelin found a name—Severing.

This is the diary of a little girl. There are many contents in the diary, many daily events and some personal feelings are recorded in it. Zelin can almost imagine how the little girl who owns this diary spends her life in a closed and fearful environment. She has no friends or anyone to confide in, so she can only record all her heart in her diary as the object of her confession.

Chapter 2772: Adria's Past

In 1220 of the Kegistan calendar, nearly forty years ago, a girl was born in the home of a wealthy businessman in the rich King Port. The merchant's name was Severing, and he was in charge of two merchant ships and had a trade route to the Skovos Islands. The local Amazon sells specialty products from the rainforest, which are undoubtedly rare things for the residents of Westermar, and Severing has gained a lot of wealth.

In the middle of the diary, the little girl recorded a burning witch. This incident must have left a very deep impression on her heart, and she spent many pages writing about it.

[Father told me that witches have a face of a devil, and they will kill all the good people around them if they trade with hell. But I saw that she is so beautiful, so beautiful. The flames ignited, and the witch was ignited like ordinary people. I felt as if she was looking at me, her gaze passed through the crowd, she saw me, I also saw her, she...she was smiling at me. 】

The little girl questioned a lot of people's descriptions of witches in her diary. She thought that people were lying and that people were only afraid of witches, but witches were not terrible, and she couldn't understand it.

But soon Zelin turned the page, and his diaries became less and less.

In 1231 of the Kegistani calendar, when the little girl was about eleven years old, her father Severing’s merchant ship was hit by a storm, causing him to lose a lot of money. Under the dual effects of alcohol and anger, Severing Ling strangled his wife one night. Later, Severing was arrested by the sheriff and city guards and accused him of murder, and was to be hanged. But under the influence of his wealth and power, Severin was finally pardoned and acquitted.
