The Witcher: Darkness Falls

"It's amazing..."

Leon felt the magical power flowing into his body continuously, and this power made his consciousness clearer and clearer.

He could hear the faint sound of wind in the passage, the sound of insects crawling over the stone walls in the darkness, and even the sound of blood flowing through his veins driven by his own heartbeat.

Leon once wondered if his brain was broken, otherwise how could he hear these subtle sounds.

But he was still able to think, and his mind was quicker than ever!

Leon didn't understand why this happened, he could only attribute it to the power of magic.

"It seems that the red magic affects my mind, while the green one affects more of my body..." Leon thought.

He didn't know if he was right to think this way, but that was how the two different colors of magic made him feel.

Maybe it wasn't true, but it didn't matter to him.

He was a little curious now. According to what Stregobor said, there were only a few such magic tablets in the hands of wizards.

But how could he find two pieces in such a short time?

Is this all luck?

Or something else?

"The intersection of the celestial spheres will bring things that do not belong to this world into this world, so will it also bring out things that originally belonged to this world but were buried for unknown reasons?" Leon thought to himself.

He always felt that many things were related to the intersection of the celestial spheres. There might not be a direct relationship, but there was an indirect impact.

Of course, it could just be a coincidence.

Da da--

There were footsteps.

Leon's attention immediately turned to the direction where the footsteps came from.

"how come?"

Leon frowned.

The footsteps came from the direction in front of him, which was the direction leading to the goblin's nest.

However, the entrance had probably been blown down, and it would be impossible to clear it out without ten days or half a month.

"Could it be... that this passage is connected to other entrances?" Leon thought.

Maybe this is possible. After all, this is in the wilderness, in a mountain, and it is possible that the cracks in the mountain are connected.

Thinking of this, Leon opened his eyes and stood up. He took his hand away from the stone tablet and slowly tightened his grip on the steel sword.

As his hand left, the light on the stone tablet did not dim. The runes were still flashing, and a hazy red light was already emitting, which enveloped Leon's entire body.

Lyon ignored this phenomenon, his attention was focused on the approaching footsteps.

Da da--

Nearly.

"Maybe it was someone who came in from another passage." Lyon thought to himself.

If he can come in, others can definitely come in too.

If this person has taken the wrong road, he will tell the other party to return the same way, because the exit behind him is guarded by a human-faced newt.

The human-faced newt is definitely not something an ordinary person can deal with.

After absorbing the magical power, he will go out along the passage where people came from.

If the other party wanted to see the stone tablet, there was no need for him to stop him. It was not his anyway, and the person who came would definitely not be able to absorb these magical powers.

In short, if the other party has no ill intentions, he does not intend to take action.

But if the person who came wanted to do something, he didn't mind killing him.

clatter--

The footsteps stopped just around the corner.

Leon stood calmly, waiting.

Da da--

The footsteps continued, and then a short, even hunchbacked man walked out from the corner.

Leon was stunned.

He stared at the face of the person who appeared before him.

It was a long, oval face with a pointed chin, thin, pale lips, a groove nose, and a pair of gloomy eyes deep in the eye sockets.

And the most important thing is that those eyes have the same snake-like pupils as his.

Lyon looked at the person in front of him, his mind went blank, he felt his hands and feet were cold and he couldn't move.

A feeling of fear enveloped his whole body. His body began to tremble uncontrollably, and he even couldn't hold the steel sword in his hand steadily.

"Oh - Leon Field, look at you, you've grown so big!" The man looked at Leon and spoke first.

His voice was hoarse, as if his throat was being pinched by a hand.

But the tone was calm, as if he was greeting a neighbor.

When Leon heard this voice, his face instantly lost color, turned pale, and his lips began to tremble.

"No...you're not...no..." He was a little incoherent.

"Hehe... You thought I was dead, right?" the man said with a grin.

He walked towards Leon again, talking as he walked, as if talking to himself: "Ah! Really, kill me? Let me think, what happened to me at that time?

Oh! I drank the potion, but the mutation failed, which made me extremely weak. I asked you for help, but you took my sword and stabbed me through the heart!"

Leon felt his heart stop suddenly.

The expression on the man's face suddenly became ferocious, like a vulture.

"Do you think you can kill me? Do you think you can kill me with just a steel sword?

Answer me, Leon Field!

Answer me, you bastard!

Is this how you repay me for raising you?

Use a steel sword to pierce the heart of the unarmed benefactor who asks you for help!

Then you took away everything he had, and kept telling yourself that you had killed him!

answer me! "

Sikori roared and walked quickly towards Leon.

However, Lyon's legs became weak as he watched Sikori approaching, and he was unable to retreat!

Until the other person stood in front of him, he was so scared that he couldn't move even though he was obviously more than a head taller than the other person!

Sikori stared into Leon's eyes so hard that it suffocated him.

Leon tried to talk himself into backing off, but he couldn't.

His legs seemed to be frozen to the ground and he couldn't move at all.

His mind went blank. How could a person who had been dead for six years appear before him again?

In an instant, all the demonic memories buried in his heart came flooding back.

Leon's body began to tremble, his stomach lurched and he felt like vomiting.

But he couldn't do it, he couldn't do anything, he could only stand there in a daze.

"Now, I order you to hand over the steel sword in your hand! Kneel down!" Sikori raised a smug smile on his face and gave orders to Leon.

Leon's throat was dry, and his hands began to rise slowly and uncontrollably, trembling as he tried to hand over the steel sword.

Sikori looked at Leon with satisfaction and said, "Very good, Leon Field, you still remember! Next, I will tell you what punishment you will receive for repaying kindness with enmity!"

Leon's hands were shaking, and his body was shaking as well.

He saw the smug smile on Sikori's face, just as he had towards him and his companions.

They were like lambs to be slaughtered, and had no room for resistance against the wolf Sikori!

They are powerless, fragile, even cowardly!

"Leon Field, hurry up!" Sicori was very dissatisfied with Leon's actions and he yelled again.

"No!" Leon finally shouted.

He stared at Sikori with fear and anger, gritted his teeth, and shouted again: "No! I have the power now!

It's impossible to give you the sword!

You deserve to die! "

Leon roared, and at that moment, he felt that his body could move again.

At this moment, he decided to swing his sword and kill Sikori!
