The Witcher: Darkness Falls

"It's over! Beauclair is over, Toussaint is over!" Duke Gaitan collapsed to the ground with a dull look in his eyes.

Dark clouds gathered over the main city of Beauclair and it began to rain to extinguish the flames.

He knew at that time that it was Fringilla who took action.

This wizard, who has been living in Toussaint, has not interfered in Toussaint's internal affairs for more than a hundred years. During this period, there have been several virus infections in Toussaint, which were all resolved by the wizard.

Therefore, when he succeeded to the title of Duke of Toussaint, he made a special visit and maintained a good relationship with him.

The reason why he hasn't left yet is because he had sent a message to the other party a long time ago, but he just didn't receive a response.

And the other party took action as he expected.

However, once the black dragon started attacking the Mage Tower and destroyed it, he knew that Toussaint was doomed.

The next moment, a portal opened in front of him, and Ciri, Fringilla, and Yennefer rushed out one after another.

"Get down!" Yennefer yelled.

Although she closed the teleportation array in time, several pieces of rubble still flew out and hit several servants, killing one of them.

However, no one cares about the person who was accidentally injured by the flying rocks.

Gaitan stood up tremblingly and asked, "Fringilla, what should we do?"

Fringilla got up from the ground and dusted herself off. She frowned at Gaitan and the few remaining servants behind her and asked, "Why haven't you left yet?"

Gaitan smiled bitterly and said, "Where can I go?"

Everything he had was in Beauclair, and to leave would be to give up everything.

What's more, most of the servants had run away, and the main city and port of Beauclair were also in flames. How could he escape alone?

Since the elves were driven out, Toussaint has not experienced a war. Even during the Northern War 200 years ago, when there was chaos outside, Toussaint still lived and worked in peace and contentment, like a fairy tale world. Naturally, its ability to deal with emergencies is very poor.

However, it is precisely because of this that successive Nilfgaardian emperors have no interest in Toussaint. As long as they pay tribute on time, they will let them be. After all, there is no threat here.

But now, Duke Gaitan has no intention of escaping even when disaster strikes.

However, Fringilla could not care less. She turned to Yennefer and said, "Inside the Beauclair Palace there are nodes of magic arrays that were once set up by the elves. Although they are damaged, I have repaired some of them over the past hundred years. The defensive arrays and some of the offensive arrays should be usable."

Gaitan was stunned: "When was it done? How come I don't know?"

No one cares about him.

Fringilla brought Yennefer to the most protruding arc-shaped stand of the castle, and pointed at the ground below and said, "This is a control point, and there is another one over there. If we work together, we should be able to activate the castle's attack magic circle and see if we can kill the black dragon.

Even if we can't kill it, we have to shoot it down and not let it fly in the sky!"

If the black dragon landed, they might be able to think of other ways to attack it, but it was flying in the sky and they couldn't do anything to it.

Yennefer nodded, and then Fringilla told her the spell to activate the magic circle.

Then Fringilla came to another arc-shaped stand about ten meters away.

There are dozens of such stands around the castle. If they are all control points, then the magic circle set up by the elves in this castle must be huge. Fully activating it can definitely kill the black dragon.

After Fringilla stood up, she looked at Yennefer and chanted a spell to activate the magic circle in the castle.

As the two chanted the spell, the patterns beneath their feet quickly lit up and then spread to part of the castle's outer wall.

Then, a powerful magical force was activated, and in an instant, green light was released and gathered in the sky to form a male elf image about fifteen or sixteen meters tall.

The elf holds a bow and arrow and carries a quiver with three arrows on his back.

After the black dragon crashed into the tower, it was immediately attracted by the elf's phantom and flew over with a roar.

Fringilla made a gesture of drawing a bow and drawing an arrow, and the elf shadow above their heads also drew out an arrow and put it on the bow, pulled the bow to its full extent, aimed at the flying black dragon and shot it out.

The arrow turned into a stream of light and hit the black dragon's body head-on at an extremely fast speed.

Roar--

The black dragon roared, and the light dissipated. Everyone saw that there was a cut in the upper right corner of the black dragon's triangular head.

It hurts.

But there was no blood, but black gas was coming out!

The elf shadow bent its bow and shot an arrow again. This time, the black dragon did not use its body to resist, but instead rotated its body and passed by the light arrow.

However, the arrow of light unexpectedly turned, and the Black Dragon was shot in the back without warning.

But this time, apart from making the Black Dragon roar in anger, it did not cause him any harm at all.

It even seemed to have angered the other party, and he rushed over at an accelerated speed.

"It's coming! It's coming!" Gaitan and others shouted in horror.

"Yennefer, give up attacking and defend!" Fringilla shouted.

Obviously, the attack magic circle on the Beauclair Castle might be quite powerful.

But this is obviously a multi-person magic circle. It is more than enough to deal with ordinary monsters if activated by the two of them alone, but it is obviously not enough to deal with the black dragon.

Then, magic flowed out from the obsidian pendant on Yennefer's chest, and as she opened her arms and made a gesture of supporting the sky, the magic quickly merged into the castle.

The next moment, a shell-shaped shield opened up and enveloped everyone.

Then the black dragon opened its sharp claws and grabbed it.

Yennefer half-knelt down, blood oozing from the corner of her mouth and a look of pain on her face.

She was now in charge of defense. Although the defensive magic circle in the castle took on most of the damage, a small part of it still reached her.

"Yennefer!" Ciri felt distressed, but she couldn't help at the moment.

"Stay away from me! If the situation is not right, run quickly and take Geralt with you!" Yennefer glared at Ciri and said.

"No, I can't leave you!" Xirui was reluctant to leave.

Yennefer gritted her teeth and said, "I won't die here!"

The implication is that if she can't be stopped, she will find a way to retreat.

Ciri nodded and stood up.

The black dragon circled in the sky, then opened its mouth and spewed dragon fire towards the shield.

Yennefer tried hard to hold on. She shouted to the people behind her: "It's inside the castle. Run away!"

She was a little overwhelmed. These people were just waiting to die if they stayed here. The only way they could survive was to hide inside the castle.

Duke Gaitan, supported by his servants, ran hurriedly into the castle.

Yennefer looked at Fringilla, and after the two confirmed their glances, they were ready to wait for the black dragon's attack to pass and then open the portal to escape.

hold head high--

However, suddenly a loud dragon roar was heard, and the next moment, they saw the flames in front of them suddenly dissipate.

Yennefer quickly turned her head to look at the place where the black dragon fell, and an expression of joy immediately appeared on her face.

"It's Borch!"
