The Witcher: Darkness Falls

Many years later, Leon still found the scene before him incredible.

After shouting out the knight's declaration, McLaren suddenly became sacred.

A platinum-colored light emanated from his body, instantly illuminating the dark cave.

It is like the early morning, the forest after the rain, hazy and holy under the gentle sunlight.

That's the case with McLaren right now.

Divine light emanated from his body, and the platinum light swirled around him. Under the outline of the golden light, a nearly transparent heavy armor quickly condensed.

Although it is made up of light, this armor feels very heavy.

McLaren wore a full-coverage ram-horn helmet on his head, with two huge argali horns embedded on the left and right sides of the helmet like horns.

Further down, the wide shoulder armor is covered with goose-feather-like feather patterns, and the shoulder armor on the left shoulder merges all the way down with McLaren's arm.

In his left hand he held a triangular shield with golden curved edges that looked like a bird's wing curled up. The shield was so large that it could cover McLaren's entire body even if he was standing.

On the right, the steel sword in his hand was covered by a large golden knight's heavy sword.

Strangely, behind McLaren, there was only a swan-like wing on the right side, curled up and hanging behind him, emitting a soft light.

It seemed to be a pair with the shield on his left arm, looking strange yet coordinated.

McLaren now looks like the legendary messenger of the gods!

"Angel!"

Such a word popped into Lyon's mind.

The word "angel" is the most appropriate to describe McLaren.

Under the shining of the holy light, Lyon suddenly felt like bowing down in worship, but he resisted this feeling.

And after seeing McLaren's current state, the goblins who rushed out had long lost their arrogance.

They were terrified and screamed as if they had seen something terrifying. Their faces were distorted with fear.

The goblin screamed in fear and retreated, and McLaren rushed into the cave after looking at Leon.

The moment he moved, Lyon saw the light wings curled up behind McLaren suddenly open up, flapping violently and rushing out.

At that moment, McLaren's speed increased three times, as if a ray of light rushed into the cave.

"I am definitely no match for him." Leon thought.

He reached out and pressed the Demon Hunter Medal that was beating violently on his chest to calm it down.

He didn't feel any magical aura from McLaren at all, but everything changed when he shouted out that knight's declaration.

The power of magic filled the cave, it was everywhere, and the concentration was so high that his witcher medal almost screamed.

Even he himself almost knelt down to worship at one point.

"Illusion?" Leon thought to himself.

Illusion-type magic has this effect. Theoretically speaking, his Axis Seal is an illusion seal, which acts on the human mind.

"It must be more than just an illusion." Leon thought to himself.

If he only relied on illusion, he could at most make the low-IQ goblins panic or confused, unless his illusion could also make the goblins kill each other.

However, most wizards are unable to perform such illusions, especially powerful illusions that can be cast over a large area.

Because such illusions would either be destroyed, the wizards who could perform such illusions would be executed by the kings, or the wizards themselves would list it as forbidden magic.

Because this is horrible.

Just imagine, when a powerful wizard casts such an illusion, it can cause all the people in a small town to kill each other.

Then, they are fully capable of performing their operations in the palace. After all, a palace is much smaller than a small town.

How could the kings not be afraid? Even other wizards would be terrified.

In fact, there seems to be no record of wizards performing such illusions in history, and Lyon even suspects that such illusions do not exist at all.

The Axis Sign can only confuse creatures with low intelligence or humans with weak willpower.

But Leon definitely couldn't use the Axis Sign to control them to commit suicide.

Just like last night, he was able to briefly control the hobgoblin, quieting it and stopping its attack.

But once the goblin leader appears, his Axis seal will become ineffective.

If someone hits the earth elf with a sword at this time, the pain will also make the Axis seal ineffective.

What's more, when people are trapped in an environment of suspicion and fear, and have to kill people around them in order to survive, their minds are highly tense and focused.

Under such circumstances, no illusion will take effect at all.

Well, McLaren would definitely not kill all the goblins with just an illusion.

The moment McLaren rushed out, Lyon followed.

Soon, he saw a wider space deep in the cave.

McLaren moved quickly in this space. He swung the sword in his hand like cutting wheat and easily killed the goblin in front of him.

These goblins moved quickly, but in front of McLaren they were like old grandfathers and grandmothers, and he easily caught up with them.

Lyon saw a ball of light moving quickly in the vast space.

The holy light emanating from McLaren also illuminated the dark cave, allowing Leon to get a glimpse of the situation inside the cave.

As they expected, this was an underground cave. The more than ten-meter-high dome was covered with densely packed stalactites, like colorful branches.

There are also pagoda-like stone pillars around the cave that look like they were built with pebbles.

But the middle of the cave is very smooth compared to the dome.

There was a one-meter-wide crack in the stone wall ahead, and water was flowing out of it, flowing towards the underground crack on the other side. It should have merged into an underground river.

There is a simple wooden bridge built with wood and branches, spanning the stream. This should be the masterpiece of the forest trolls.

They may have worked for humans and learned some bridge-building skills. These guys are huge, clumsy and stupid, but it is undeniable that they are still an intelligent race.

On the other side of the bridge, there was a huge den made of branches and animal fur, and in the den there was a group of creatures.

There were several human women who had lost their souls, even children among them, a large group of monkeys, and even a dying troll.

Without exception, they were all pregnant and lying in their nests, extremely weak.

Even though the screaming goblins around them trampled over them, they did not react at all, or were unable to move at all.

They are dying!

Leon would guard the entrance of the cave, and when goblins rushed over, he would kill them with his steel sword.

If there are too many of them, he will use the Alder Sign to knock them away, or use the Igni Sign to burn them.

The goblins screamed as they were chased and slaughtered by McLaren.

Lyon saw that a large number of goblins had entered the source of the stream and the crack, and never came out again.

Leon didn't know where the crack led to. It might be a dead end, it might lead to another underground river, or there might be an exit leading to the forest outside.

But he did not intend to pursue it, because the crack was too narrow and anyone who went in would be in danger and die.

"Okay, you can notify Madison and the others to come in." McLaren appeared in front of Leon again. There was no movement in the cave and all the goblins were dead.

He also absorbed the holy light into his body and turned into his normal appearance.
