The Witcher: Darkness Falls

Chase it down.

After thinking about it, Lyon felt that he could continue chasing.

He brought sword oil specifically for restraining werewolves, so two werewolves were not a big problem. If that didn't work, he also brought some magic potions.

These potions were all prepared by him in Nilfgaard. Although there would be side effects after drinking them, they would not kill people.

If used properly, it can save lives at critical moments.

Leon adjusted his breathing and chased after him again.

This time he didn't walk far and soon found a small wooden house in the forest. It looked like a hunter's cabin.

This type of hut is common on the outskirts of the forest and is usually used by hunters as a place to rest at night.

After all, the main job of hunters is hunting. They track prey into the forest and stay there for more than ten days or even a month.

It is not possible to go in and out every day, and the good prey are all in the forest, so they need to build such huts as temporary resting places.

These huts often have blankets and other things in them.

In addition to hunters, people who collect herbs would occasionally come here to rest.

The door of the cabin was, so to speak, fastened, but not locked.

Leon used his tracking ability and found footprints heading towards the cabin.

"Inside here..."

He adjusted his breathing and approached carefully, trying not to make any sound.

He stepped very lightly, like a cat.

Finally, he approached the cabin, but he didn't hear any movement inside, not even the sound of breathing.

Leon then quickly rushed forward and opened the door, and found it was empty inside.

"The werewolf has left here." Leon judged.

He immediately started tracking again, but strangely, this time he lost the clue.

This is considered to be quite deep, and the tree canopy is much denser than the trees on the periphery. Even though the moon is very round tonight and there are no dark clouds, the moonlight here is almost invisible. Leon relies entirely on his own eyesight.

Tracking is less affected by light, but it requires high consistency of clues.

If the werewolf became an ordinary person at this time, his aura would be completely different.

And if they changed their way of moving, it would further increase the difficulty of tracking them.

For example, when a werewolf enters a cabin to rest, he changes from a werewolf state back to an ordinary person.

Afterwards, they rode away on horseback.

Lyon squatted down at the door of the cabin and searched carefully, and indeed found a few shallow horseshoe prints.

The werewolf's aura also completely disappeared, and it turned back into an ordinary person.

"Huh..." Leon let out a long sigh, rubbed his temple, and decided to rest here for a night.

Now that he has found the horseshoe prints, he just needs to use them as a clue to continue chasing.

Of course, the above is just theory.

But Lyon has already used tracking several times, and now he is a little lacking in energy.

He didn't think his legs were faster than a horse.

If we continue to chase him, who knows where the other party will ride off on his horse.

After all, this might have happened last night, and a whole day has passed.

But now that he has found the trace, it will be easy. Tomorrow morning he just needs to go back to the village and ride his old horse to chase after him. Soon he will be able to catch up with the werewolf.

He didn't believe that a werewolf could stay on horseback all day. No one could stand that.

Leon closed the door from the inside and soon fell asleep.

Nothing happened that night, and the next morning he was awakened by the singing of birds in the forest.

He ate some biscuits in his bag and returned to the village, then rode his old horse to catch up with the enemy.

Meanwhile, in the Earl's castle, Stregobor was pacing anxiously in the room.

In front of him were three candlestick-like pillars arranged in a regular triangle, with a crystal on top of each pillar.

The crystals emitted a faint light, interweaving together to form a light blue halo with a diameter of two meters.

Suddenly, a three-dimensional human figure was projected from the aperture.

Although only the upper body is shown, one can clearly see that the person inside is a beautiful woman with fluffy hair and freckles on both sides of her nose.

The woman said with some dissatisfaction, "Strigob, you better be okay. You've activated the all-staff communication twice in five days."

Then the picture flashed, and another figure was projected.

She is still a woman, a gorgeous woman in a lace dress.

Her face was as delicate as porcelain, impeccably perfect, with a goose egg-sized gem hanging around her neck, lying quietly on her plump breasts.

The most important thing is that her ears are pointed and small.

This is an elf!

"You're here so early, Triss." The female elf greeted the freckled woman with a smile as she appeared.

Triss didn't show any intention of saying hello, and then another projection of a woman appeared.

The woman was sitting on the dressing table, combing her thick, wavy hair with a comb, and said impatiently, "Strigob, please speak quickly."

As she spoke, she turned around and said to the person behind her: "My dear, please sleep a little longer."

Three men appeared, and Stregobor finally spoke.

"Have any of you ever understood the True God Church? What exactly do they do?"

"True God Church?" The elf frowned slightly.

"The new church from Povis?" Triss asked.

Stregobor asked hastily, "You know?"

Triss nodded and said, “Of course I know, it is said that this sect has been developed for less than fifty years, and most of it has been around Povis and Kovel.

They have only appeared in Temeria in the past five years to preach and promote the true God. But they are just a bunch of ordinary people. I don’t pay much attention to them.”

Stregobor looked extremely unhappy.

"I've heard about it too." The witch who was dressing up just now said, "They have a bishop named Matteo Ricci who came to Kaer Morhen and invited Geralt to be their protector.

I refused.

Being an apologist? I've never heard of it, but it's quite novel that they come to the witcher.

The bishop is an interesting man, well-informed and gentle, but he looks like an ordinary person. "

"Yennefer, they also looked for you?" Triss asked in surprise.

Yennefer looked at Triss with a smile and said, "Yes, dear, but the main thing is to find Geralt."

Then she said with some annoyance: "You actually went to him. I am a high-level wizard. It's really shortsighted of you not to hire me as a consultant."

Triss stared at Yennefer and said proudly, "Yeah, it's a shame that I didn't come to you. They did come to me, but I didn't see them."

Yennefer chuckled.

"That's enough, common people?" Stregobor couldn't help shouting. "I thought you knew more in the north."

The three witches turned to look at him.

Stregobor said shockingly, "He can remove a curse like the Law of Surprise with a potion, and the whole process takes less than 30 minutes. Do you think he is an ordinary person?"

For a moment, the scene became quiet.

On the other side, Lyon rode his horse and arrived at the north gate of Dan Rowan before dark.
