The Journey of the Demon Hunter
Chapter 671:
"I still need a few bottles of poison to make people look like they have gotten a potion from the plague after death. By the way, I am going to set up this place. It is estimated that after a while, the priests and temple guards of the eternal fire should come over. Now, do you know what the scene will look like when Priest Zhuolan kidnap people? Hurry up and do it, I will only pay the people who work."
"Do you think I am your subordinate worker? Or your servant?" The woman walked out behind the pomegranate tree, shaking her head and spitting the pomegranate seeds on the ground. This behavior made Edmund frowned slightly.
A woman from the country.
But if Zelin were here, he would frown, not because of the other party's behavior, but because of the other party's identity. The people in Edmund's Villa asked the demon hunter to lead her to Jabigail in the upper city in the morning.
"I will pay you. The money will allow you to move into the best apartment in Novigrad and fill your closet with silk clothes instead of wearing this dirty and torn linen clothes. Don’t eat these sour pomegranates to satisfy your hunger."
"For someone who just wanted to go wrong, this sentence really has no credibility." Jabigail shrugged. "But you are right. I'm here to work. Well... your ship is here."
A long black-gray ship appeared on the sea in the distance.
The paint on the side of the ship had peeled off, and the name of the Catriona could be seen faintly. The ship has appeared on the sea level in the distance of Novigrad. The manager of the terminal is directing other workers to prepare to transport cargo to the trestle bridge. According to the record, this ship is a cargo ship from the south, and it is full of Goods.
Of course, there are indeed goods inside. For Edmund, those corpses that were packed into long crates and carrying the plague were the best goods that made him come back in this competition.
Looking at the approaching ships and the unsuspecting people on the coast, Edmund laughed haha.
"Look at them. They thought they were smart, but only one or two small plague ships attracted their attention to the open sea. The white-haired girl must have been sent by Chapei. The eternal fire wants to be here, too. There was some benefit in the game shuffle, but unfortunately, it is estimated that Chapei will soon be infected with the plague and die."
Jabigail didn't say a word from behind, she just bowed her head to clean her nails, then raised her head from time to time to take a look at the position of the sun in the sky.
The black ship soon approached the pier, and more than a dozen porters were ready on the shore. Edmund poured a glass for Jabigail, then raised his glass, and said ruddy, "Cheers for a better tomorrow."
After all, he raised his head and drank the beer in the glass, then he hiccuped and wiped the foam left at the corner of his mouth.
Then he found that he had fallen to the ground, his body was convulsing uncontrollably, his intestines seemed to be screwed together because of severe pain, in the uncontrollable pain, he could only lie on the ground and shrink his body. The celebration wine on the round table next to the armchair spilled all over the floor, flowing down the cracks in the floor.
Edmund immediately realized what had happened.
He was poisoned in his wine!
Soon, there was a shadow in front of his eyes, and Jabigail walked up the stairs and squatted down in front of him to block the sun.
"What's wrong with you? You don't look well. Would you like some pomegranate to ease it?"
Chapter 1219: The Big Game of Life
Edmund gritted his teeth and endured the sharp pain in his abdomen. He can't remember the last time he suffered such pain. It seems that a dwarf who was framed by his design, after discovering that he was deceived, hit him on the head with a wooden stick, and was then taken away by the guards. Entered the cell. He remembered the dwarf because the dwarf died later without paying back the money.
"You stupid woman!... Find the antidote! In my room, there is a detoxification... cattle stone on the bedside... get it quickly!"
Jabigail sighed and rubbed his fluffy orange curls.
"Life is always full of surprises and surprises, isn't it? You might be celebrating victory at the first moment, and the next moment, you might lie on the ground, crying for help. Ah... Death is really equal to the point of ruthlessness, which is terrifying. "
"You **** witch..."
Suddenly, a violent explosion from outside attracted Edmund's attention. The explosion sounded from the sea in the distance. The sound was very loud, even in the upper city of Novigrad. Edmund struggled to push away the chair in front of him, the wooden chair fell down and hit him, but the scene before him made his blood seem to freeze. The long black ship burst open on the sea, and the whole ship was already ablaze with flames.
"Ah, another big ups and downs in life." Jabigail said with emotion. She took out the dagger pinned to her waist and gestured in front of Edmund. "It seems that your enemy is not without success."
Near the shore, two ships of Eternal Fire were throwing burning rocks at the long black ship. Before planning this matter, Edmund investigated almost all the ships capable of fighting in Novigrad. In order to prevent the arrival of the black long ship, other ships could not transfer all the guard ships anchored in the port, he also Members who are specifically instructed to sponsor themselves in the parliament are asked to assist any relevant laws and regulations as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, how could Chapei pass the bill to mobilize guard ships to go to sea so smoothly.
In order to expand the strength of the plague fleet, he also deliberately hired and sent two cargo ships to the place where the plague ship was hiding. Did he tell the sailors that he was going to Cowell to buy goods. These sailors didn't doubt him, and then they all became undead in the fleet.
But he couldn't figure out where the two huge warships on the sea came from.
"Go and get the detoxification stone... I'll give you a kilogram of Lang!"
He must find a way to deal with this emergency. However, the people on the cruise ship should have almost died. Even if he failed to cause a plague in Novigrad, he might swallow as much of the free interest as possible before everyone could react. No one knows what is going on, except for him, there may be Chapei of Eternal Fire. He doesn't know what this **** bishop is doing, but this guy who has become weak due to a serious illness is about to start trying to control the city again?
Another sharp pain in his abdomen made Edmund groan in his throat.
But Jabigail remained indifferent.
"...Is it the poison you put in my wine?"
The witch picked up the cup that fell to the ground, and looked at the pattern on the outside of the cup intently. "Aren't you still guessing? You are not that stupid yet."
"...How much did the person who hired you give you?!"
With an elusive smile on Jabigail’s face, she pressed the dagger against Edmund’s chest, and then her expression became extremely serious. This net of cleansing destiny. Your soul will become Zhuolan's sacrifice, offering new tributes and food to the Great Weaver."
Edmund opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Jabigail didn’t give him a chance. The dagger pierced his chest in an instant, and then her wrist turned lightly to draw a perfect circle on the baron’s chest. .
"I know what you have done in the past, Edmund." Looking at the baron's shocked eyes, Jabigail said flatly. "It's not that I poisoned you, I just changed the position of the drinks you prepared for me."
"I...not..."
"Leave this to the **** of death to say. Oh, yes, your soul will become Zhuolan's food, and you may not see the **** of death anymore."
Jabigail smiled slightly and put his hand into the baron's chest. The blood flowed down the steps of the observation tower, and soon stained the entire corridor red, dripping into the lawn below. No one else knows what happened here. In order to deceive those people and make them believe that he had embarked on the cruise ship that had long been used as a trap, Edmund betrayed all the people around him and left them all on it. Now, he is the only person in his villa.
No one came to rescue him.
Until the evening of the same day, more than a dozen town guards appeared outside Edmund's villa, led by a municipal official, and Zelin was among them. The city official stood in front of the gate of the villa and read the city council’s arrest warrant. The charges included colluding with the devil, spreading heresies, and blasphemy. These charges were enough to put anyone on the torture frame. He demanded that Edmund come out immediately. Surrendered, but the only response to him was silence.
Looking at the deserted villa, the city official looked at the demon hunter on the side. "Master Demon Hunter, do we just set fire to burn this place? There must be a devil's curse inside, maybe you may be cursed and turned into a monster if you walk in."
Zelin shook his head gently. The two ships hidden in the bay by the eternal fire made great contributions. Originally, Chapei planned to send all the ships out in one effort to completely eliminate the threat. But the demon hunter stopped him and told him not to fold before the opponent throws all the cards, even if you have a big advantage. But this time thanks to Amelia's adventure, otherwise they would not be able to sink the ship before it entered the dock.
There are a total of seven plague ships and hundreds of undead, which is enough to be called an invasion. Such a fleet can completely attack any unprepared town on the coast except Novigrad.
"No, I guess the people inside may have died, or ran away, and went in and searched. There was no movement of living people inside, and no traces of magic."
The searched soldiers filed in, and it didn't take long for someone to find Edmund's cold body in the attic. His body was laid flat on the table, and two white candles that were about to burn were lit nearby. This surprised the guard who found the body.
"Devil hunter, what evil ritual is this?!"
"It's nothing, don't worry, it won't cause harm to us and this town." Zelin knew this sacrifice ceremony, he said to the city official. "Block it here, don't let other people destroy the scene, my wizard friend and I may have to come and investigate."
"Did Mr. Edmond be assassinated?"
Zelin glanced at the corpse that still had fear in his eyes, and shrugged, "I guess someone lost everything in a big game."
Lost everything in the money gambling.
Conscience, life.
The first thousand one hundred and twenty chapters after the plague
The plague failed to engulf Novigrad in the end.
The city and nearby fishing villages will be banned for half a year. No fishermen will be allowed to fish in the place where the plague ship was burned and sunk to prevent any accidents. However, Zelin believes that their worry is superfluous, and the source of the plague has been suppressed. They cleared it out, and the wizard determined that the soldiers who participated in the battle did not carry the plague, but they lost a lot of people in this battle. Zhapei sent people to patrol the nearby waters to ensure that no fish that slipped through the net escaped.
