The Witcher: Darkness Falls

"Regis!"

"what?"

"You never told me that your friend in Toussaint was Geralt!" Leon shouted, trying to make his voice heard over the sound of horse hooves and wind.

Regis shouted back, "You didn't ask me that question either!"

His answer made Lyon a little speechless.

He had indeed never asked this question. After all, in his subconscious mind, Regis either had relatives living here or was just an ordinary friend of his.

But who would connect a middle-aged pharmacist with the legendary witcher who is over 300 years old?

This is crazy!

"How did you meet? Did you live in the northern countries before?" Leon asked.

"Yes, I used to live in Dillingen, Brugger, where I met Geralt and his men." Regis answered loudly, "Have you heard of Brugger?"

"No." Lyon responded.

There are so many countries in the north that Brugger has never heard of them. It must be a small country.

Regis had expected this, and he responded loudly: "It is a small country near the Yaruga River, across the river from Cintra. It is a vassal state of Temeria. It is normal that you don't know it."

"How did you two know each other? Did he save your life?" Leon asked, "Or did he seek treatment for his injuries?"

In his opinion, there are only two situations in which a witcher becomes friends with a pharmacist.

Or maybe there were monsters roaming around Dillingen, and the witcher Geralt passed by, killed those monsters, and rescued Regis.

Or Geralt was injured during the mission and went to Regis for treatment.

Otherwise, he really couldn't imagine why a pharmacist and a demon hunter would have any intersection.

Even if he was injured while doing a mission, he could prepare potions and heal himself.

A demon hunter as powerful as Geralt might have more ways than him.

It is said that Geralt is friends with many female witches in the north, so healing wounds can be done with ease.

Regis was silent for a moment, he slowed down his horse, walked side by side with Leon and said: "He didn't save me, it's just that he and his friend passed by my place and we happened to meet.

At that time, I had been alone for too long and felt lonely, so I went with them, and that’s how we met. ”

Leon was a little surprised. Is this how they met?

It seems that Geralt should be easy to get along with.

"Then I provided him with some help," Regis said lightly, slowing down his pace.

"What's wrong?" Leon turned around and asked, "Have we arrived yet?"

Regis looked at the fork in the road before him, then pointed to the left and said, “No, I haven’t been back for so long that I don’t quite remember the way.

Go that way, you'll be there soon."

After finding the right direction, the two continued to ride at full speed.

Soon, they saw some panicked people fleeing in the opposite direction.

Some even shouted, "Run! Giants are coming down the mountain to eat people! Don't go that way!"

Leon and Regis ignored it, knowing that they were in the right place.

Sure enough, after riding forward for a while, they heard a deafening roar, and further ahead they could see scattered stray knights and bounty hunters riding their horses.

"I swear to the heron that I will stop you giants and never let the Duke see your shadows in the castle!"

"Over there! Pin it down, the demon hunter is fighting one-on-one, don't get close to there!"

"Go away and lead him towards Mount Gaogong!"

……

From a distance, Leon heard a strange sound, like someone swearing.

"That's a wandering knight, let's go and help him!" Regis said immediately.

Without Regis's reminder, Leon had already rushed over on horseback.

He saw that the person in front of him was roughly divided into four parts, two on the left and two on the right.

On the left, he saw a huge figure about six or seven meters tall, being restrained by a dozen knights.

It's like an elephant surrounded by a pack of wild dogs.

The giant roared and swung the mace made of huge wood in his hand everywhere.

On the other side, he only saw a burly man with white hair and agility, who was fighting a giant with a huge axe as a weapon alone.

Leon walked towards the man, wanting to help.

However, the next moment, a deafening roar came from behind the windmill in front of him on the right.

"Aww!!!"

With a roar, the brick windmill exploded and the fan blades flew everywhere.

"Ah!!" At the same time, there were also people's screams mixed in.

Bricks and stones flew out, and someone fell from the broken bricks and stones far away, lying on the ground motionless.

There was also a man who fell to the ground screaming, apparently with a broken leg. His horse was lying not far away, half of its body had been trampled to pieces.

A piece of brick bounced out and hit a bounty hunter on the head.

The bounty hunter didn't even have time to scream before he fell off his horse and died.

"Aww!!!"

The roar sounded again, and a huge monster about seven or eight meters tall rushed over, causing the knights or bounty hunters who were wandering around to hide.

It was a giant, holding a rolling log as a weapon.

He wore a large rusty bull-horned helmet on his head, and his legs and forearms were tied with thick animal skins with iron chains.

Only the crotch is covered with animal fur, while the rest of the body is exposed.

"You stand back." Leon turned and said to Regis who came over.

Then he jumped off his horse and rushed forward, brandishing his steel sword.

The giant held a rolling log in his hand and ignored Leon who was rushing towards him. He roared and smashed towards the bounty hunter who was wailing on the ground.

Lyon raised his hand and cast the Alder Seal, striking the giant in the side, causing him to stagger and the log to fall to the ground with a loud bang.

"This way!" Leon yelled.

"Ouch!!"

The giant was enraged by Leon and immediately swung the rolling log towards him.

call--

A violent wind whistled past, and Lyon immediately squatted down to avoid the rolling log.

He rushed forward and thrust his sword into the giant's leggings.

He used almost all his strength in this sword, piercing through the giant's leather leggings and piercing into his calf.

"Ouch!!"

The giant screamed in pain and drew his legs back. Even though the sword had injured the giant, it was no damage to his huge body and only angered him.

The giant roared and retreated. Leon took the opportunity to pull out the steel sword and circled around the giant looking for an opportunity.

"Ahhh!!!" The giant was furious and rushed towards Leon with the rolling log in his arms.

Leon jumped to the side, avoiding the giant's trampling.

The opponent is huge, with thick skin and strong strength, but he is very inflexible and his brain doesn't work well.

It would take time for Leon to break through the giant's defense. Not only that, he lacked sword oil or other magic to deal with the giant.

Leon glanced at another place. The giant who was fighting with Geralt had already knelt down. It seemed that the battle there would be over soon.
