God-level Demon Hunter

He suddenly glanced at the strange pupils and the long sword behind him, and his tone could not help being a little bit like a mosquito, "Why... just... just ran to our room... these two horses... what's going on?"

"That..." Roy rubbed his temples in distress, "You have so many questions, let's keep going..."

"Continue? Do you think I still have the mood to continue?!"

The man's roar stopped abruptly, and the woman also fell into a daze. Two green inverted triangles suddenly appeared in the four pupils.

"Remember," the demon hunter flexibly drew his fingers in mid-air, with a smirk on his lips, "you are still intoxicated in love, and have forgotten what happened in the past 10 minutes. Next, you will continue to 'cultivate' , for two hours."

"Huh?" The big man next to him maintained the seal in his hand, and gave him a reproachful look.

"Okay, one hour is fine! It's a man, it can't be less than one hour!"

……

"call……"

The witcher wiped off the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and amidst a bunch of surprised eyes in the hotel, each led a horse and walked onto the street.

"Little devil, give your blood to a foreign wizard to study casually. You are not afraid that he will curse you and make your life worse than death!"

"Don't worry, Aza Javed is not a good thing at first glance. I won't be so stupid as to give him my blood... We have killed a lot of monsters along the way and provided me with a lot of blood materials." Roy gave He gave the big man a reassuring look. He has personal space, so it shouldn't be too easy to change secretly.

"I didn't break my promise, this is also my blood - the blood I carry on my body."

What can a wizard who studies monster blood as the blood of a witcher achieve?Roy is looking forward to it.

……

The streets of Sintra are unusually wide, with hard bluestone pavements twice as wide as Vizima.The surrounding buildings are simple and elegant. The walls of the houses are all tall and thick with stones with distinct textures, and there are no redundant pattern decorations on the windows of the houses.

The refreshing sea breeze with the smell of sea salt blows from the west, and the people passing by on the street dress very differently from the people in the interior.

Because Sintra is adjacent to the sea and maintains a good alliance with the Skelliger Islands on the sea, the people here are more or less infected with the tough atmosphere of the islanders, and you can see turbans and sleeveless jackets everywhere. A man with two big arms exposed, his cheeks roughened by the sea wind and flushed.

There are also some rough and bearded men with their chests exposed, striding across the street.They talked rudely, uttered descriptions of prostitutes, drinks, and boats, and occasionally flirted with a passing woman, who would not be outdone, give him a hard look, and then dropped a bunch of nasty swear words and walked away.

For the first time, two demon hunters walked into the crowd, but they didn't get too many strange looks.

"Yes, the people of Sintra are not as petty as other places!" Roy couldn't help but praise.

He still remembered that he saw a piece of information before that Sintra was captured by Nilfgaard in the future, and all the royal family and nobles in Sintra were martyred in order to stick to the festival.

On the day of the country's death, most of the people of Sintra did not surrender to the invading army, although the executioner of Nilfgaard did not give them the option of surrender - women killed their children one after another, while men ended their wives' lives, Then kill yourself!

The combination of all these actions created the Sintra Massacre, which will be famous in history in the future.

This record may be exaggerated, but it is enough to show that Sintra is a country full of iron blood and courage, and there are few cowards and softies.

……

The two continued to move forward, their gazes involuntarily drifted to the north of Sintra, above the lonely cliffs on the coast.

There stands a majestic castle, inhabited by the current highest ruler in Sintra, Calanth the lioness.

A biography of this woman flashed through Roy's mind.

Her life was full of legends and ambitions, but as a daughter, she was not recognized by the traditional nobles of Sintra, and she could not justifiably become a king.

She wanted to give birth to a son to inherit Cintra's throne and ambitions, but after giving birth to Ciri's mother, Princess Paveta, she lost her fertility due to a miscarriage.So her first husband, Rogner of Ebin, found a concubine with strong fertility, but it didn't take long for the concubine to belch.

According to folk rumors, it was Calanthe who personally poisoned her first husband to prevent the loss of power in the future.

Not long after Rogner's death, Calanthe married his second husband, Ester Tursek from Skellige, who is also the current husband, but Ester is just a docile shopkeeper, The nominal puppet king, the actual power of the entire Sintra is still firmly in the hands of Calanthe.

As he grew older, in order to consolidate his power, Calanthe hoped that his precious daughter Pavetta would give birth to a boy who would inherit the throne of Cintra.However, the latter gave birth to a daughter Ciri who inherited the blood of the ancients, and then "unfortunately" encountered a shipwreck and her whereabouts were unknown not long after.

Now Calanthe's only surviving relatives are Ciri, but unfortunately this little girl still cannot inherit the throne.The witcher had a premonition that the man in power would start looking for a puppet again.

"Calculating the time, little Xili should be recuperating in the palace. Probably in these days, Calanthe will send her to meet that fat fiance."

The demon hunter couldn't wait to go to the palace to see the little girl, and through the connection of fate, he followed the clues to find the wolf-sent demon hunter Geralt.

Take the first step towards the Witcher's revival.

Roy's thoughts were like lightning, and Lei Suo led him around in the alleys of Sintra, looking for the snake marks scattered on the surrounding walls and trees, and came to a remote and dilapidated building. outside of the yard.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang..."

Tap three times in a row, and then tap twice at intervals.

"Who..." After knocking on the door, a sharp male voice came from the house, and Lei Suo grinned rarely,

"The water ghost is here to entertain you with a sword. Is there any good wine for the old friend? You don't open the door yet, you idiot!"

"Squeak——" the old yellowed and dilapidated wooden door opened, revealing a wooden face with a red hair band. Roy turned his eyes on his face, feeling a resemblance, and then suddenly realized,

Isn't this Seret, the Viper School demon hunter who arrived in Kaye Village with Lei Suo half a year ago?

Soon, another face with a hood that looked exactly like him appeared next to this man. It was the inseparable brother of the demon hunter Serritt—Ox.

"Look, what a handsome young man!" Oakes pushed away his indifferent brother with a playful smile, and grabbed the young witcher's hand with great enthusiasm.

"The fourth member of Viper School, Demon Hunter Roy, you are finally here!"

Chapter 2 Origins with the Wild Hunt

Dim and dilapidated dwellings.

The pupils of the four pairs of beasts emitted a strange light—four demon hunters gathered around a Gwent chessboard, with cups of beer with a strong smell of malt and hops in their hands.

"Snapped!"

The young witcher slammed the Gwent card onto the board, then grinned at the man in the hood and shawl opposite him,

"you lose!"

"Damn it!" Oakes scratched the back of his head in frustration, "I said Roy, did you lie about your age and say you were 14 years old? You actually managed to beat me, and you even won two in a row."

"Unprecedented, big failure!"

After complaining, Oakes picked up a glass of beer and gulped it down, wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth with his gray sleeves, and then reluctantly took out a gleaming Gwent card from his pocket.

"My baby has not been warmed up yet, and you won it again!"

"Now you know how powerful it is?" Lei Suo taunted aside with sarcasm in his eyes, "I warned you a long time ago, just drink as much as you want, and I want to play cards with this brat."

"What do you know, beating Gwent is the best way to judge a person's character... um... Now it seems that the young man is not very good at being a man, no matter how big or small, he doesn't know how to respect his predecessors at all!"

Oakes stuck his neck and stared at Roy stubbornly,

"Listen to me! Next time, I'll fight back to win it back! Serrit, don't drag me! It's agreed to rotate three hands, why are you in a hurry, can't you let me vent my anger first!?"

Roy put away the Gwent card with a smile. The face of the card was a familiar white-haired face, a character included by the Gwent Committee because of a massacre in Bravikan many years ago——Lee Where is Geralt of Via, the legendary witcher?

The boy's eyes shifted to the opposite side, and Oakes, the demon hunter, acted like a heartless and carefree guy.Of course, it cannot be ruled out that this is his disguise, after all, he has not been in contact with the other party for a long time.

"81 years old, the same age as Serritt. Could it be that these two guys are not only brothers, but also twin brothers?"

The attributes of Oakes and Serrit are comparable to Lei Suo, but there are still a lot of question marks in the attributes.As mature demon hunters, their fighting power is far superior to Roy's. Apart from the difference in appearance, their personalities are also completely different.

Oakes was enthusiastic, cheerful, and talkative, while Serrit was gloomy and quiet, with a hooked nose and narrow eyes, as if he was thinking about conspiracies and tricks anytime and anywhere.

"With their contradictory personalities, how come they have lived in peace for decades? Could it be that the blood relationship is so strong among demon hunters?"

"Almost forgot the business!" Roy slapped his head suddenly, and asked eagerly, "Don't quarrel with the two of you, how are Old Moore and Susie doing in Novigrad?"

"I thought you had completely forgotten about the old couple." Oakes glanced at him, who was slightly ashamed.

He really ignored the old Moore and his wife. They hadn't contacted each other except for one correspondence for more than half a year.

"Don't worry, boy, their business in Novigrad's food stall is very smooth—in fact, without you, the oil bottle, life is not to mention how nourishing it is."

"Really?" Roy breathed a sigh of relief, with a happy face, but also a little indescribably disappointed.

"They also asked me to bring good news, a surprise." Oakes glanced at Roy with a half-smile, and his brother Serrit's eyes became strange.

"What surprise?"

"Your old mother Susie is two months pregnant! The next time you see them, you will have an extra brother or sister."

"Are you surprised?"

"Uh... Pregnant? Brother, sister?"

Roy's eyebrows twitched into a ball, his mood was extremely complicated, and he was stunned for ten seconds.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

"I'm not by their side, the old couple is alone, and the next child is lively and lively, what's the problem?"

The three demon hunters noticed his abnormality, exchanged glances, and asked him to be quiet for a few minutes.Then, Lei Suo comforted softly, "Little devil, you must understand one thing. If you choose the trial of green grass, you will bid farewell to the life of normal people."

"The environment you are in and the people you interact with are completely different from those in the past ten years. Your life trajectory will gradually drift away from your parents until there is no intersection!"

"You mean I will sever ties with them?!" Roy was slightly annoyed and at a loss.

"It's not a moral issue... We are destined to be adrift. When you want to settle down, the old Moore couple who are normal people are no longer alive."

Reso sighed.

"You'll understand later."

Roy lowered his head and fell into silence.

Oakes brought a glass of wine in front of him, "I have to add to what Lei Suo said just now..."

He pressed the young demon hunter's shoulder heavily, "The general environment in the northern countries still discriminates against demon hunters. It is no exaggeration to say that if you often appear beside the old Moore couple, it will be greatly improved. affect their normal life."

"We are not forcing you to make a choice. You have to be mentally prepared. As far as I know, no child can return to his original family after becoming a witcher."

"It's just going to tear apart."

……

"Okay, let's not talk about Old Moore for now, let's continue playing cards."

Roy shook his head, dispelling the chaotic thoughts in his mind. He could only go to Novigrad to verify these questions in person in the future, to face his heart directly.

"Sorry, three, I don't have the mind to continue playing cards right now."

"Drinking? Newcomers must have a drink with us!" Serrit said with widened eyes.

"Of course, but allow me to ask a question first."

Roy glanced at the bald man, "I have been following Lei Suo for more than half a year, and I have been listening to him nagging in my ear that the Viper School is on the verge of extinction, so we came to Sintra to make some special arrangements to save the school?"

"Can you guys tell me how critical the Viper School is? Leto, Oakes, and Serritt, the four of us are the last remaining demon hunters of the Viper School?"

"Look, I said he would definitely ask that!" Oakes showed off to his brother in a serious way.

"Boy, in addition to the four people present, the Snake Demon Hunter Colgrim is collecting the lost weapons of the Snake Sect all over the world. Another most powerful Snake Sect demon hunter, Ivar Evil Eye, disappeared 20 years ago. After that, there was no news back.”

"The last two stupid guys, don't mention it!" Oakes' tone was full of anger.

Colgrim?Roy's attention was attracted by this familiar name.In my memory, the body of this guy was found in the White Orchard, but there are still ten years before that time, and it is still uncertain whether he is dead or alive.

"So, there are still four to eight existing Snake Demon Hunters?"

In fact, this scale is not uncommon among witcher schools - all witcher schools are in decline.

"How did our school decline to this point? Is the Snake School's academy located in the southern Nilfgaard Empire?"

"There are so many questions, kid!" Oakes snatched the wine glass in front of him, took a sip, a trace of deep loneliness flashed in his eyes,

"The Snake School is located next to Nilfgaard, in a fortress named Gthvader in the Tir Tosha Mountains..." Oakes's face showed pride, "There is a high-profile tower, circling It is surrounded by a moat hundreds of feet deep. It is a fortress like a moat."

"It's a pity that it declined after all. As for the reason, it is more complicated."

"First of all, in recent years, the requirements for law and order in the Nilfgaardian Empire have become higher and higher," Lei Suo took over his words and laughed at himself. It was not tolerated by the empire, so it was suppressed."

"The negative publicity of the empire has made the living environment of the demon hunters in the south more and more difficult. The people no longer believe in us, and the law of accidents is regarded as dirty magic in their eyes. It is even more impossible to give their children to us as a reward for training."

"We thought about adopting those displaced war orphans, but people reported it as an evil act."

Roy agreed, even in the north, there are fewer and fewer accidental children, and people's prejudice against demon hunters is getting deeper and deeper.

"Without the soil for the Witcher Academy to survive in the south, the academy will naturally wither. But I firmly believe that this situation can be improved. The misunderstanding of the people and the country about the Witcher will eventually be eliminated."

Lesso squeezed his fist.

"But it was the disaster 20 years ago that dealt the fatal blow to Viper Academy."

"Disaster? What disaster?" There are very few documents about Viper School, and even the specific location is mysterious, let alone the college disaster.

"This is a disaster caused by wild hunting." Leto looked at the young witcher and said, "Little devil, don't you know a lot, have you heard of wild hunting?"
