The Witcher: Darkness Falls

"careful!"

Geralt reminded, then gritted his teeth and formed a Quen Sign, and a shield immediately wrapped around him and Leon.

In an instant, the blazing fire waves engulfed the two of them.

The temperature of the flames was extremely high. Even through the protective shields, they all felt the unbearable heat and their bodies seemed to be burned.

Geralt gritted his teeth, his expression becoming increasingly ferocious.

After all, he is not a wizard, and all his seals rely on his mental power.

Having cast several incredibly powerful seals before, Quinn's seal was now cast with great difficulty.

But the flames continued to burn, and he dared not relax at all, but Leon saw that cold sweat had begun to appear on Geralt's forehead.

"Let me do it!" Leon shouted in Geralt's ear.

Afterwards, Leon used all his magic power and cast the Quen Sign to replace Geralt.

"Hahaha!"

Geralt lay on the ground gasping for breath, and at this moment something even more terrible happened. The effect of the potion faded and the side effects began to become apparent.

Leon gritted his teeth and held on, and quickly took out a bottle of high-grade white bee potion.

“Hurry, drink it!” Leon saw that Geralt was almost dying and his eyelids drooped.

He took the potion tremblingly and poured it into his mouth. Then he began to kneel on the ground in pain and vomited violently, spitting out the toxins in his body mixed with food residues all over the floor.

Seeing that Geralt was fine, Leon began to worry about his own health.

He hadn't drunk as much medicine as Geralt, but the time was almost up now.

He didn't know where the fire above his head came from, and he didn't feel any strong magical fluctuations. The fire came out of nowhere.

The fire was so fierce that even though it didn't burn him because of the shield, he could still feel the burning pain on his exposed skin.

Not only that, the magic power in the body is consumed very quickly.

At this rate of mana consumption, he probably wouldn't be able to wait for the effect of the potion to wear off. He would first die from excessive mana consumption, or his mana would not be enough to support the shield, and then he would be burned to death.

He understood that Hall clearly had a huge advantage, but he immediately gave up attacking them.

With such a fierce fire, only a high-level vampire like him and the blessing of holy light could withstand it for a few minutes. If it were anyone else, they would have been cremated immediately.

"No...if this goes on, Geralt and I will be cremated first." Leon held on hard. He felt that it would only take half a minute. He would not be able to hold on any longer.

Now Geralt lay weakly beside his vomit, unable to help at all.

"I don't know if the backup plan can solve the current problem." Lyon thought to himself, and decided to activate the backup plan.

However, just as he had this thought, the fire suddenly subsided.

In almost an instant, the fire disappeared.

No, or it was taken away by something.

Leon did not remove the protective shield immediately, but waited for a few seconds and removed it only after making sure that everything was fine.

For a moment, he felt like he was in a sea of ​​fire, and the scalding hot air made him scream out in pain.

"what!!!!"

Leon felt like he was getting cooked.

call--

But the next moment, a strong wind suddenly blew up, and not only him, but also Geralt on the ground was blown away, falling more than ten meters away and stopping only after hitting a tree.

"Cough! Cough!" Tears flashed in Leon's eyes and he coughed violently.

My whole body aches, and it feels like my body is falling apart.

"What am I doing... cough cough cough! Geralt! Geralt!" Leon got up and shouted loudly as he looked at the large area of ​​scorched earth, which covered several hundred square meters, in front of him.

"I'm here……"

Geralt's weak voice came from behind him.

Leon turned around and saw no one, then looked up and saw Geralt hanging on a tree branch.

Leon didn't know what was going on. He wanted to go up and take Geralt down and give him the life pendant first.

"I'm fine... cough cough cough!" Geralt said weakly. He struggled for a while and then continued to hang.

Leaning against a tree, Leon drank a sip of high-grade white bee to remove the toxins in his body.

He didn't have much strength left, so he planned to recover first before helping Geralt.

It must be said that the effect of the advanced potion is great and immediate. He felt the effect as soon as he drank it.

Leon vomited all over the floor, feeling like his internal organs were about to come out, and his head hurt from vomiting.

"Leon!? It's really you!" In a daze, he heard someone calling his name.

Leon raised his head with mucus hanging from his mouth, tears welling up in his eyes. He dimly saw a woman running towards him.

He shook his head and his vision finally became clear.

"Eunice?" Lyon saw clearly that the woman running towards him was Eunice whom he had parted with a few days ago.

"Why are you here?" he asked.

When leaving Beauclair Castle, a large number of bounty hunters and mercenaries set out to look for monsters.

Leon and Geralt were not in a hurry because they still needed to make preparations, but Eunice was anxious and excited. She was afraid that the monsters would be taken away by someone, so she set out alone.

I haven't seen you for a few days, and I bumped into you here.

"I just saw a big meatball over here, so I ran over here. How are you guys?" Eunice said guiltily, her eyes flickering, as if she had done something wrong.

But Leon didn't see that he was still very weak. Although the poison had been removed, he had consumed a lot of magic power and needed a while to recover.

"Eunice... did you see the fire? There was also a strong wind." Leon asked.

Eunice quickly shook her head and said, "No, it was like this when I came here. Are you okay?"

She was very nervous.

Leon shook his head. He took a deep breath, pointed at Geralt on the tree and said, "Take Geralt down first."

Geralt is weaker than him now, so it's not a good idea to keep him hanging.

"Oh, okay, don't move, I'll do it!" Eunice held Leon's arm and pressed down his ready body.

“What a powerful force…” Leon felt like his butt was about to split, and he grimaced.

Eunice climbed up the tree in no time, picked up Geralt like a princess, and jumped down without any pressure at all.

Leon looked at Eunice in doubt. He always felt that there was something wrong with this woman.

But he couldn't say exactly where.

"How did you get so badly injured? Did you encounter a powerful monster?" Eunice asked worriedly.

"Yes, very powerful." Leon nodded and suddenly remembered that Regis seemed to be lying not far from here.

However, he didn't dare to ask Eunice to help find it. He didn't know whether Regis had recovered a little. It would be very funny if she saw him in his vampire form.

Regis's identity as a vampire must never be known to others!

Moreover, no one knows what happened to Hall under such a severe fire.

He turned his head and looked around, but did not see Hall, but saw Regis walking towards him listlessly along a path.

Leon breathed a sigh of relief.
