the next day.
Su Ziyu didn't see Daisy. The person who brought him food was the rather dainty-looking Nicole. This sorceress who looked like a girl next door was very polite and even turned up her skirt before leaving. Lady etiquette.
"Pretending!" Melissa snorted dissatisfiedly after she left.
Su Ziyu glanced at her and said calmly: "Eat quickly. Today's training is doubled."
The free cities are dangerous.
The weakest among the group was Melissa, but it was impossible to leave her here alone. Su Ziyu could only seize the time to train her, and she could improve her strength a little bit.
Melissa has a good foundation.
I don’t know whether it’s because of taking magic potions or some other reason, but Melissa has agility and speed that far exceeds that of other women. Her biggest flaw is strength. Women are inherently weak in strength. Even if they survive the demon hunt, Human potion trials are not as good as those of a normal male demon hunter.
"Would you like a game of Gwent?" Van Tesin looked completely normal today.
Maybe it was because Jenny's death made him a little sad, recalling many things in the past, but demon hunters are extremely strong warriors, and one day was enough for him to adjust his mentality.
"Come on." Su Ziyu smiled.
He dropped the sulking Melissa next to him, stood up and said, "Continue to train for five thousand times. You must turn the footwork of the White Crow Sword Technique into an instinctive conditioned reflex of the body."
So, the two grown men happily started a game of Gwent.
Time passed little by little.
"Damn it. Why did I lose again?" Fan Tesin's expression was a bit depressed. When he played cards with Su Ziyu, he always lost more than he won.
Tap tap tap.
At this time, there was a burst of rapid footsteps, and Alice rushed over with a rather anxious expression, whispering: "Your Excellency Enid, please come over."
What happened
Su Ziyu and Fan Texin couldn't help but look at each other, stood up and walked outside.
"Continue training." Su Ziyu looked back at Melissa and said, "I want to check when I come back tonight."
Over there in the hall.
When Su Ziyu and Fan Tesin came in, they saw Ms. Enid sitting on the long table with a serious expression. Next to her was Ms. Judy in a red dress. On the side was an injured sorceress lying on a chair. Lenna was tending to her wounds.
I hadn't seen this sorceress yesterday. She was slightly injured, with three arrows in her back.
"The sisters of the Secret Order were ambushed by the Church of Eternal Fire." Enid stood up and said solemnly to Fantersin: "It was the Knights of the Flaming Rose who did it."
"Philomena may have fallen into their hands as well."
Fantasia must have known the sorceress named Philomena, and her face became a little ugly at this time.
Witchers live a long life.
Because they often face dangerous monsters, sometimes they also owe some favors.
"What's your plan?" Fan Tesin said solemnly.
Ms. Enid glanced at Su Ziyu next to her and said slowly: "We must find a way to rescue them. We don't have much time left. I need the help of your two Excellencies."
Su Ziyu thought for a moment and said, "When will we act?"
"Now." Ms. Enid took a deep breath and said, "There is a teleportation circle here that can reach the vicinity of Cologne."
Teleport
Su Ziyu curiously followed Ms. Enid to an underground secret room. There were five people in this operation, Su Ziyu, Fan Tesin, Enid, Judy and Alice.
The sorceress's teleportation device looks like a magic circle.
There are many mysterious runes on it.
Because he doesn't have the ability to understand the text, Su Ziyu can't read it now.
The world was spinning for a while.
When they recovered, they were on a towering cliff.
"Hold me." After Witch Judy finished speaking, she hugged Su Ziyu's waist, and then the two of them jumped directly from the cliff hundreds of meters high.
A gust of wind howled.
After Judy cast a certain spell, their falling speed gradually slowed down, and finally they landed on the ground as lightly as feathers.
Alice's figure followed closely behind.
Fantersin was blessed with some kind of spell by Ms. Enid, and he also floated down bit by bit.
have to say.
Compared with sorceresses, the spells of witchers are like simple tricks, and the spell-casting abilities of the two are not on the same level at all.
Ms. Enid was the last to fall.
She used a translucent crystal ball to identify the direction and said in a solemn voice: "Go this way."
"It shouldn't be very far."
There are horse hoof prints left here not long ago. The Knights of the Flaming Rose are composed of fanatical believers of the Eternal Fire Sect. They hate witches extremely, and even those who study alchemy may be arrested and tried by them. These people are extremely elite warriors, well-equipped, and have a large number of weapons made of anti-magic metals. A lot of the knowledge of the demon hunter school has fallen into their hands.
The group of people accelerated on their way.
Finally, in the evening, we arrived near a valley. There were many traces of battles here, and the violent explosion seemed to have caused part of the mountain wall to collapse.
"We're late," Ms. Enid sighed, turning around.
One, two, three…
There are five burned-out fires in front, and a few bones can be seen among the ashes.
Judy's expression seemed to be a little panicked, and she couldn't help but move closer to Su Ziyu, as if she was worried that one day she would end up like this.
Fantersin was silent.
He stretched out his hand to peel away the ashes after the flames burned, searching carefully one by one. Finally, he took out an unknown pendant that had melted. It had been melted so much that only a mutilated bird could be vaguely seen. The head looks a bit like a crow.
"Leave him alone," Ms. Enid said softly, as if she knew something.
Su Ziyu quietly looked at the burned-out fires.
They were burned alive.
In his spiritual perception, he seemed to be able to vaguely hear the shrill female wail, and a cold breath lingered here, full of resentment, unwillingness and pain.
That's a witch's curse!
They cursed all of this crazily before they died, and the pain of being burned by the flames made them hate it all.
But unfortunately they are not strong enough.
Their curse only gave the place an air of undead and did not harm the executioners. It is said that when an extremely powerful sorceress was executed, a large rain of fire fell from the sky. Her curse turned the entire land into a dead place. Whenever night fell, there would be a ghost figure wandering around.
Fantersin knelt on one knee in front of the fire and remained silent for a long time.
Then, he stood up and held the melted pendant in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go."
