The Witcher: Darkness Falls

Just as the witchers outside the cave talked about, there is indeed a very deep cave inside the mountain.

Lyon led the way, with Collette and his team members, followed by McLaren, into the cave.

The first ten meters or so of the cave is relatively flat, but it starts to slope downwards.

Colette and others held torches, and in the light of the fire, they saw a large number of spines, ribs and other bones scattered in the cave.

The bones here are not only human, but also bones of other animals, including deer, wild dogs, and maybe even wolves.

These bones are very fresh. Some of them still have rotten flesh threads on them, and there are fascia and other tissues at the joints.

The tragic scenes along the way were terrifying to watch. If it weren't for McLaren following behind, some people would have wanted to escape.

In addition, the smell in the cave became more disgusting as you went further back. The stench of rotting corpses, the fishy smell of urine, the stench of feces, etc. mixed together, almost making you suffocate.

Leon didn't feel much. His tolerance was several times greater than that of these humans. It was disgusting, but he could bear it.

When Colette smelled the smell, her stomach churned violently, and she finally couldn't help but vomit while holding onto the stone wall.

McLaren wasn't much better off. Under the leaping flames, his facial features were squeezed into a ball.

"These goblins are disgusting. We won't be poisoned, will we?" Colette frowned. He quickly approached Leon and asked, "Hello, Demon Hunter, what's your name?"

"Lyon." Lyon replied calmly, "Lyon of Cotia."

He looked ahead. The light from outside the cave could no longer shine in, and his sphere of influence was greatly reduced.

But Colette's torch did help, allowing him to see farther.

"Lyon of Cotia, Cotia... Oh! I know this place, the southernmost city in the Nilfgaard Empire?" Colette thought about it and quickly found this place in her memory.

"Yes," Leon replied.

After receiving a positive answer, Colette immediately began to think of topics to talk about and try to get close to Leon.

He noticed Leon when they first met.

Although he had never seen a demon hunter, he had heard legends about them.

This is a group of killers who make a living by hunting monsters, and sometimes they also kill people on the side.

Very powerful.

Previously, he and his teammates killed the goblins that Madison and his team used to explore the way, and he could feel that Madison wanted to kill them.

Although he didn't know why he didn't take action in the end, Colette was sure that if he had given up the goblin's head and got away quickly, they would have definitely survived.

However, the moment he saw Lyon, he had a bold idea.

That is to follow this army, not to run away.

Madison brought more than sixty people, all of whom were fully armed soldiers.

And Colette captured some key information from their words, that is, Madison and others could determine the location of the goblin nest.

And this army is here to wipe out the goblins.

In addition to army soldiers, there are also demon hunters!

Although it is dangerous to join this army in clearing out the goblins, if successful, the benefits will undoubtedly be huge.

As the saying goes, fortune and fortune are achieved through risk, so he decided to take a gamble.

Judging from what he saw before entering the cave, he made the right bet.

They followed the army and picked up a lot of bargains. Just the goblin heads in their hands could be exchanged for thirty silver coins from the earl!

And one pure silver coin can be exchanged for one hundred florins, which means that they have now earned three thousand florins!

This is a huge sum of money!

If he wasn't greedy, if he retreated while the army was dealing with the goblins, they would have made a net profit of thirty silver pieces.

It's a pity that he was too greedy.

He was still thinking about whether he could continue to pick up bargains. After all, these thirty silver coins were just like picked up.

As a result, they were used as cannon fodder by Madison to explore the way.

If he dared to refuse at this time, he was sure that Madison would order the soldiers to kill him.

But fortunately, he came in with the witcher, and the witcher was walking in front.

The guy behind their team seemed to be pretty powerful too, but he didn't seem easy to get along with.

Although the demon hunter in front of him looked strange, he seemed easier to get along with besides being relatively silent.

So, he decided to get close to the witcher so that if he encountered goblins later, he could at least seek their protection.

Colette began to search her mind for all the memories about Cotia.

Kotia, a place name that had been blurred in his memory for more than ten years. He now began to try hard to recall it in order to survive the next operation.

"I remember there was a port there. Although it was the southernmost port, it was rather ordinary because the surrounding area was relatively barren," Colette began to recall.

He held back the stench, and tried to make his breathing even and his tone kind.

"I didn't expect you still remember that place?" There was no surprise in Leon's tone. His eyes were fixed on the road ahead, but a cold haze appeared in his eyes.

"Remember?" Colette was stunned. He thought Leon was talking about his good memory, so he smiled and said, "Of course I remember, my memory is very good.

I've been there before, I was seventeen, so that should be fifteen years ago, right?"

"Sixteen years," Leon replied calmly.

He stopped, and in front of him, where ordinary people could not see, the cave began to open up.

Leon looked up and noticed that inverted stalactites began to appear on the ceiling of the cave in front of him, with water droplets condensing on the stalactites.

There are also cylindrical stalactites on both sides of the expanded cave. Not only that, there are also some thinner and sharper stones.

"Sixteen years?" Colette was stunned. He thought about it carefully and it seemed that it really was sixteen years.

But...how does the other party know it is sixteen years?

Colette looked at Leon suspiciously.

Lyon's sudden stop disrupted his thoughts. He raised his head, held up the torch and looked forward.

However, there was darkness ahead, nothing at all.

"What's wrong? Have you found anything new?" Colette asked.

However, there was no need for Leon to answer, as noises were heard from inside the cave. The sound was very small at first, but soon became very loud.

Especially in this quiet cave, the noisy sound is very abrupt and makes it difficult to breathe.

"The... the goblins are coming! Let's go back! Our mission is not..."

Colette panicked and wanted to go back.

But faster than the goblin was Leon's sword.

He looked at the demon hunter in front of him with a sinister look in disbelief.

The opponent's sword cut his throat, causing his consciousness to gradually dissipate.

Before he died, Colette couldn't understand why the witcher wanted to kill him without hesitation.
