He never expected that when he and Ciri arrived in Toussaint, they happened to see the scene of Dandelion being escorted to the beheading platform in Bauclair Square, ready to be executed.
Just when Lu Qi was about to rescue the bard, a pardon order from the duchess saved the poet from the death penalty and saved him some troubles.
When Lu Qi saw the potbellied Milva and the long-haired Angoulin among the crowd, he learned from the mouths of the two why Dandelion changed from the Duchess' lover to The reason for being imprisoned.
The reason is quite simple, that is, the poet couldn't control his philanthropic heart and his eager bull, so he had a private meeting with a baron's daughter, and was discovered by the duchess.
If the Duchess hadn't had some affection for the poet, he might not have met Lu Qi alive.
Since Dandelion was expelled from the Duchy of Toussaint, Milva and Angulane could not continue to stay in the castle of Bauclair, and could only follow
Lu Qi took advantage of the opportunity to bring up the results of the first battle in Styga, and invited the three of them to live in his castle.
Although I am a little sad about the death of Regis.However, the deceased was gone, and the three of them still calmed down, followed Lu Qi and Xili through the portal, and arrived at Amelia Castle.
It is worth mentioning that when Lu Qi returned to the castle, the first person to greet him was not Di Pang, the head of the territory, nor Ji Lian, his confidantes, but the little griffin who was growing up day by day!
call!
A huge black shadow flew across the sky, and with a bang, a griffon with shiny hair spread its wings and landed in front of Lu Qi.
Seeing the appearance of the griffin, Shirley was startled, and suddenly pulled out the "Swift" from behind, and put on a fighting stance.
Just as she was looking for a way to deal with the griffin in her mind, Lu Qi's voice made her relax:
"Don't worry, it's my pet."
After finishing speaking, Lu Qi stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and vigorously stroked the hair on the neck of the griffin.
To Shirley's surprise, the gigantic griffin bent down like an obedient kitten, and while enjoying the caress of its master, it rubbed its head into Lu Qi's arms to show its closeness.
After waving his hand, Lu Qi asked the Griffin to play by himself through the spiritual link, and the Griffin flapped its huge wings very obediently, slowly rising and flying to the sky.
The residents of the territory have long been used to the fact that their lord has raised a griffin, from the shock at the beginning to the numbness now.
As long as griffins do not attack humans, peaceful coexistence becomes a matter of course
As soon as he walked into the lord's hall, Ciri couldn't help being curious, and asked:
"Alex, tell me quickly, how did you do it?!"
"Do what?"
"Griffin!" Ciri looked extremely excited, "I've read the notes and books written by demon hunters, and all of them said that griffins are extremely stubborn beasts that cannot be tamed by humans."
"Oh, this one, it's a long story"
"We have plenty of time"
"Well, that's in a town called Lynch"
. . .
After Mirva, Angulan, and Dandelion settled down, Lu Qi took a few people to visit the development inside and outside the territory. Sometimes he went to the distillery to see the production of distilled alcohol, and sometimes he went to see the recovery work of the territory. .
Di Fat is worthy of being the former Redanian intelligence chief and king's advisor. With his outstanding ability, he is more than enough to manage a small earldom.
Whether it was the sales of the Fiery Wine or the reconstruction of the territory, he managed everything in an orderly manner.
Construction scenes in full swing can be seen everywhere, and several areas after the war began to gradually glow with vitality.
Perhaps it was because of the support of the lord, Lu Qi, who wore a black cloak with the Black Eagle emblem printed on his chest, was bowed and thanked by the residents of the territory wherever he went.
The scene in front of him made Ciri involuntarily curious about what kind of achievements this black-haired man, who looked not much older than himself, had achieved in order to achieve his current status and gain widespread respect from the residents of the territory.
In this way, time is passing by unconsciously.
After staying in Amelia for a week, Xili reluctantly returned to Kaer Morhen with Lu Qi.
However, when the two returned to the castle hall, Yennefer with a serious face pulled Ciri aside and whispered a whisper.
Lu Qi, who saw this scene, couldn't help looking at Geralt, who was expressionless, and asked, "What happened?"
"Philippa Earhart, do you remember her?"
"Of course, that sorceress whose ambition is about to burst out of her eyes." After a pause, Lu Qi then asked, "What's wrong with her?"
"She and some sorceresses formed a secret organization"
Before Geralt could finish speaking, Lu Qi frowned and interrupted him: "You mean the sorceress assembly hall?!"
"You know them too?"
Nodding his head, Lu Qi then asked, "What does she want?"
"Ciri." Geralt sneered, "To be precise, it's the ancient blood in her body."
"She knew everything that happened in Stiga, so she asked Ye Naifa to take Ciri to meet them on the night of the new moon. Otherwise"
It didn't take Geralt to finish, Lu Qi could know that there was a threat behind it.
With a twitch of the corner of his mouth, Lu Qi showed a contemptuous smile, and couldn't help muttering: "It seems that these self-righteous women have their own plans for Xili."
At this time, Ciri, who was not far away, suddenly raised his voice:
"I'm not afraid of them, Mother, they can't do anything! But I can go to them if they want."
From Xili's clear voice, Lu Qi could hear a hint of fear and reluctance.
Obviously, Ciri didn't want to stand in front of those women who used her as a tool again.
"Geralt, are you going to just watch Ciri come to your door like this, and let those women who only care about their own status and power control her life at will, just for that shitty fate?"
"Yen Naifa said that even if you object, it won't help. We must do what they say. This is for her good and for the good of everyone."
Once Ciri falls under the control of the sorceress assembly, they will definitely control Ciri's fate firmly, and then let her, a swallow that should be flying between worlds, be locked in a golden cage!
Lu Qi, who has a full understanding of Xili's rough life, doesn't want Xili to become like that.
Putting aside the reason of [World Mission], just for Xili's sake, Lu Qi can't let the sorceress gathering succeed!
Thinking of this, Lu Qi's eyes couldn't help flashing a bright light, and then said in a deep voice:
"No, I don't think so!"
Chapter 613 The power of time and space is out of control
Of course, even if Lu Qi made up his mind, Xili couldn't just obey the control of the sorceress assembly.However, he is not prepared to directly reject the order of the sorceress assembly hall and start a direct war with it.
Even though he had just killed Vigfortez with his own hands, Lu Qi didn't think he could fight against a magic organization with nearly ten female sorceresses.
However, with the addition of several demon hunters sent by the wolf, and female sorceresses such as Yennefer, Triss, Keira and even Vigo who can win over Ciri's side, they can compete with the sorceress assembly hall .
However, he needs some time to make arrangements, win over other people, and form enough influence to influence the decision-making of the sorceress assembly hall.
Before that, he had to make sure that Shirley would not be placed under house arrest when she went to meet the members of the assembly hall.
Yes, whether to go to meet the members of the sorceress's coven is not the key to the problem.The key is, once Ciri is gone, if there is no agreement, can she escape the control of the sorceress assembly.
In Stiga, Vigfortz set up a magic restriction in the castle, preventing Ciri's power of time and space from being used, like a bird in a cage, difficult to escape.
It's hard to guarantee that if Ciri doesn't accept the orders of the assembly hall, those women who only value magic and power won't do so.
Do not!
Lu Qi is sure that if the situation is not right, the sorceress Philippa Erhart who drove her lover out of Redania and took power alone will definitely do so!
Therefore, before the night of the new moon comes, Ciri must master her abilities proficiently, and have a hole card that can teleport away at any time.
Only then will the sorceresses in the assembly hall understand that they can't keep Ciri, a swift yearning for freedom!
When Lu Qi put forward his opinions to everyone, no matter it was the demon hunters headed by Vesemir or Ciri himself, they all thought that they should not give in easily. Those women knew that Ciri was not their tool.
And Yennefer, who knows the strength of the sorceress assembly, has made up his mind when everyone agrees.
However, before everything started, she had to help Ciri master her own power of time and space.
And time is running out.
One week to the night of the new moon
. . .
It's almost dusk, on the training ground.
Lu Qi, holding a long sword, stood there, motionless.
Although his body was not moving, his white pupils kept turning without stopping for a moment, as if he was looking for something.
Taking a closer look, on the training ground covered in orange, besides Lu Qi alone, there is also a tall figure flickering around Lu Qi, flickering constantly.
Before Lu Qi could see clearly, a sound of breaking wind came from the right side behind him!
"here!"
In an instant, Lu Qi's feet moved lightly, his body moved to the left, and he held the sword in his right hand, and he lifted it up, just blocking the sword in front of his chest.
In the next second, only a crisp sound of "clang" was heard, and Shirley, who appeared out of thin air, swept from the right side with a sharp blade glowing with cold light, and was blocked just in time!
After missing a hit, Xili didn't love to fight, but used his strength to hit the ground, jumped backwards, and landed steadily.
And Lu Qi didn't continue to chase, but just met Xili's green pupils under the black eye shadow, and smiled.
Seeing Lu Qi's smile, Xili, who refused to admit defeat, used her power of time and space again, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
In the next second, she suddenly appeared on Lu Qi's left side, and stabbed Lu Qi's back with a long sword in her hand.
However, what happened next made Ciri even more depressed:
As if he had already expected that Xili would attack from this side, Lu Qi just dodged and easily avoided this seemingly fatal blow.
Immediately afterwards, he took advantage of the situation and raised his palm. Ciri felt a pain in his shoulder, and he flew out.
Backing up several steps on the ground with "slaps" before Ciri stopped her retreat.
"Let's be here today"
Hearing this, Xili couldn't help pursing her lips, and stared at Lu Qi with a puzzled expression, "Why? Why can you accurately predict where I will appear every time?!"
Inserting the long training sword back into the shelf on one side, Lu Qi responded casually:
"Because I didn't predict your actions at all. I just sensed your actions the moment you appeared and reacted subconsciously."
"Is that why your eyes turned white? To perceive my actions in advance?"
With a raised eyebrow and a smile, Lu Qi said mysteriously: "Yes, that's my trick."
"You have mastered short-distance teleportation very well. If you are now facing Bonnet, he has no chance of winning at all."
Hearing Lu Qi's words, Xili's depression was relieved a little, but she still raised her chin and murmured with some resentment:
"Cut! So what? I still haven't lost to you"
Pretending not to hear the girl's muttering, Lu Qi looked serious and continued:
"Once you arrive at the land of the sorceress, there are strange magic powers everywhere, trying to enter your body and mind, so that you can't hit the spirit. Therefore, you must master long-distance teleportation as soon as possible, so that you can use it when necessary time, escape!"
"Alex is right!"
As soon as the words fell, Yennefer, who was dressed in black, stepped on a pair of boots and came to the training ground.
"You have only mastered a small part of the strength in your body now, which is far from enough. Alright, put the sword away, we are going to start today's training!"
"Oh"
Putting the long training sword back on the shelf obediently, Ciri came to the center of the training ground and stood still.
Lu Qi and Ye Naifa, who were separated from each other on both sides of the training ground, nodded at each other, then flipped their hands and began to mobilize their magic power.
Under the control of the two, the ubiquitous power of the four elements slowly gathered to form a circular arc-shaped magic cage glowing with faint blue light, trapping Xili in the middle.
This training is simulating a scene of being imprisoned by magic, allowing Ciri to use her power of time and space to
Looking at Ciri who was gradually frowning, Ye Naifa continued to send magic power to the magic cage, while reminding her:
"Ciri, hit the spirit!"
"Imagine that I must escape from here, and call out the power in my body to make it obey your orders!"
At this moment, Ciri, who closed her eyes tightly, kept flashing scenes in her mind, all of which were memories of her being powerless and wanting to escape.
Gradually, the will to escape from this place, everything, and even this world became stronger and stronger, so strong that she was almost out of control!
Seeing that the surface of Ciri's body began to glow faintly, and the magic cage trembled crazily, Ye Naifa's eyes froze, and he couldn't help but shouted to Lu Qi:
"No, the power in her body is too strong, she can't control it all at once!"
