The Void Pathfinder from the Demon Hunter World

Speaking of treasure chests, the chest dropped by Avallac'h, which I just got, has not been opened yet.

When I was sending a message to Modus, I accidentally exposed this matter. The AI ​​sincerely asked the boss to wait for him to open it together. So let's wait.

Now the distance between one person and one bird is too far. He can't sense where the raven is at all, so he can only send messages.

About another prompt.

[Prompt: It is detected that the pioneer 000000027 used nuclear weapons to destroy a large number of local creatures, which is suspected of violating the initial regulations. The benefits of nuclear weapon kills are reduced by 50%. Warning once. ]

When Marvin first saw the "warning", he was still a little nervous.

But an hour later, he was not nervous after thinking it through.

He didn't want to use nuclear bombs to earn kill benefits, so he just deducted half.

These two nuclear bombs killed at least 100,000 people, and there were tens of thousands of kill prompts alone.

Deducting half of them must be thousands of boxes. This number is terrifying.

Besides, "warning" and "once" means that everything is fine, so why be nervous.

Tsk tsk tsk... 100,000 elves! Order Paradise is so cold and ruthless.

With so many dead souls, does Marvin feel guilty?

Not at all. Thinking about the world that Ain El had lived in and the innocent souls of other races that he slaughtered, Marvin felt no guilt at all. Note ①

In the capital of the empire, why did only 100,000 people die from two nuclear bombs?

The population base of the slave farming society is very small, and the population density difference between bungalows and buildings is very large. This is already a lot. If there were not 50,000 royal guards gathered at the right time, the casualties would be even less.

What Marvin didn't know was that he not only killed the most elite 50,000 guards, killed the core high-level officials of the empire, but also killed 80% of the important officials of the Ain El Empire, 70% of the middle and high-level mages, and 90% of the city guards.

Why did so many city guards die? Because they don't understand science.

After the first nuclear explosion, the remaining city guards, led by officers, hurried to the palace for rescue, and went deep into the radiation-stricken areas without any protection, and basically died.

Marvin didn't know whether Belhaven had left Tyr City. He hoped that Reglio would listen to his advice.

However, the former royal attendant, Tony, had obeyed his orders and ran away on the day of delivering the food. No one knew where he was now.

Marvin left all the gold and silver treasures he had looted from Lady Nika to Tony. With his cleverness, he must have lived a good life.

In any case, the capital of the Ain El Empire was destroyed, and the core force was also destroyed. If the rebels still couldn't win and the serfs couldn't sing... then he couldn't do anything.

He could only do so much, but he didn't have time to help them conquer the world.

...

The Cyrus Palace, where the Grand Gate was located, was at least a thousand kilometers away from Tyr City.

This was Marvin's estimate after repeatedly shrinking the map. He had never teleported so far.

But he still had to teleport. If he relied on his legs or riding a horse, he didn't know how long it would take.

Once the Wild Hunt in the Cyrus Palace knew about Tyr City, it didn't matter if the cavalry ran away, but it would be really troublesome if the navigators scattered.

Modus has sent back the news that there are 9 navigators in total, and one of them escaped through the portal last night.

The one who escaped is dead, that is, Caranthir. Then there are 8 people left, and the number is just right.

The cliff cave is too far away from the Cyrus Palace. It took nearly a minute to read the teleportation bar, which not only exhausted Marvin's physical strength, but also reduced Marvin's health by 37%.

In addition to the radiation damage he suffered when killing Avallac'h, his health was only 59% when he landed. Not only was his physical strength exhausted, he was extremely tired and a little weak.

Fortunately, the teleportation point was quite far from the front door of Cyrus Palace. Marvin crawled and hid behind a black boulder in the Gobi Desert to avoid the soldiers on duty on the tower.

He took out a bottle of "Avallac's Resuscitation Secret Medicine" and drank it, put away the empty crystal bottle, and rested against the stone for a long time before he recovered.

Radiation damage is useless just to replenish blood volume, and the black part still accounts for 4%.

The dark raven was standing next to Marvin. In order to avoid being overheard by accident, the man and the bird were chatting by text message.

Modus: "Boss, are you okay?"

Marvin nodded.

Modus: "Then let's start working?"

Marvin was also thinking about this.

It is safest and most appropriate to wait until the Wild Hunt rests at night before taking action, but things cannot be delayed. Who knows if there will be any news from Tyr City.

In the magic world, it is not difficult for wizards to send messages in real time. He doesn't know if there are any wizards who are familiar with the Wild Hunt alive in Tyr City.

It has been more than an hour since the nuclear explosion. The living people in Tyr City must be in chaos now.

It is still morning now. It may be too late to take action at night.

He and Modus can't keep an eye on so many people. If the navigator opens a portal and runs away, he will be finished.

Marvin: "Let's start. Fly to the highest roof in the middle, and I'll teleport up with you."

Modus: "Okay. Can you do it? Don't go up and get soft again."

Marvin: "Get lost!"

Modus: "Okay."

The raven slipped a long way across the Gobi Desert like a chicken before flying up, and flew into the clouds before flying towards the Cyrus Palace.

...

On the tower at the southeast corner of the wall, Wild Hunt Soldier A said to another soldier in the same class: "Cohen, how are you going to spend your day off tomorrow?"

Soldier B said without turning his head: "Don't look over here, look outside. Be careful of being punished again."

Soldier A said impatiently: "Okay, okay, you can't see it from below. Talk about it, it's boring."

Soldier B was tired of standing, so he walked along the parapet of the tower, saying as he walked: "It's always better to be careful. Of course I'm going home. I haven't played enough with the Dh'oine kid I brought back last time. Do you want to go with me?"

Soldier A pouted his lips in disdain: "Don't you think it's dirty? I won't go. I'm going home for a blind date. My mother found a baron's daughter for me. I heard that she is very beautiful..."

Just when he said this, Soldier A suddenly raised his voice and called out: "Hey! A bird flew over the Palace of Cyrus."

"Really? You lied to me again..." Soldier B looked back and could only see the eaves of the palace. "Are you bored?"

The Palace of Cyrus is too high, and the tower more than ten meters high is just a little brother next to it.

"I really saw a bird, a black one."

"Where did the bird come from in this damn place? I also saw Meliteli, who looked like a young girl and had no clothes on." Note ②

"The gods of Dh'oine will not descend here, hahaha..."

"Keep your voice down! Let the people below hear it..."

...

Marvin has been teleported here according to the coordinates of the raven, and is squatting on the roof of the Cyrus Palace.

He did not hear the teasing of the two Wild Hunt soldiers, and would not care if he heard it.

He is an atheist, even if the gods stand in front of him.

In his cognition, "gods" are just powerful creatures, who can only master some rules and power at most.

I can't beat you doesn't mean I have to believe in you, two different things.

Marvin has a small problem now. The Cyrus Palace has a pointed roof and two slopes. The nuclear bomb cannot be placed here and will slide down.

Fortunately, the roof is not made of tiles, but stone slabs, and the workmanship is quite fine. Such a huge project should be difficult even with the help of magic. I don't know how many slaves died for this palace.

Cut it, this is the only way.

If it were before, he would still feel sorry for the durability of Gus Pattern, but now he won't worry.

Equipment effect 2: When the knife is kept in the scabbard, the durability can be slowly restored, up to 100%.

Marvin lay on the roof and looked around. After making sure that he would not be discovered, he drew his knife and began to cut the stone.

While cutting, he sent the raven out to set a teleport point. This time it takes a long time. Modus needs to fly for at least ten minutes to reach 30 kilometers away.

Because of the influence of the Grand Gate, there are basically no wild animals around the Cyrus Palace, but a raven will not alert the Wild Hunt.

On the one hand, they have never encountered enemies here, so they are slack. On the other hand, the officers are hiding in the dormitory to rest, and there are only soldiers on the tower. No one will bother to be annoying because of this.

Nearly 20 minutes later, Modus arrived at the place, and Marvin also set the nuclear bomb and set a 12-second timer.

It took 3 more seconds in the palace to give Avallac'h the chance to open the portal. This time, he had to learn from his mistakes.

In order to prevent the navigator from opening the portal in advance, Marvin did not intend to leave quietly.

He pulled out the Gauss rifle from the inventory with his right hand, pressed his chest with his left hand, put on the ice-blue scale armor, and walked directly along the ridge to the edge, aiming the gun.

He was able to hit the target at a distance of about 100 meters.

Bang!

A dull gunshot sounded, and the metal bullet shot out with lightning, just hitting the soldier on the tower.

The bullet hit the gap in the plate armor, passed through the chest, and was finally blocked by the back plate armor.

Soldier B died.

Marvin saw it clearly and was stunned for a moment.

He really didn't want to kill him directly. The physical fitness of the Wild Hunt soldiers was not low, and with the enchanted plate armor, it was difficult to kill them with one shot. I didn't expect it.

Soldier A reacted quickly. When he saw the figure on the roof of Cyrus Palace, he raised his hand and shot an arrow.

The Wild Hunts were selected from the best of the Guards, and they were the elite of the elite. The range of more than 100 meters was naturally not a problem.

But the bows and arrows were far inferior to the Gauss rifles in terms of both speed and range.

Marvin brushed away the arrows and shouted, "You son of a bitch, come and catch me!"

Then he raised his hand and shot, killing the soldiers.

Three or four more arrows flew over, and Marvin simply stopped dodging and let them hit him.

The steel-headed wooden arrows only left a few white marks on the ice-blue scales and fell down, without any damage.

At this time, nearly a thousand Wild Hunt soldiers and hundreds of Wild Hounds poured out of the dormitory and ran towards the main gate of the Cyrus Palace.

Marvin had cleared the soldiers on the two towers in the south and was shooting randomly.

If it wasn't for killing, it was provocation.

He didn't believe that these proud elves would turn around and run away through the portal without fighting the enemies right in front of them.

In order to avoid appearing too powerful, he didn't even use plasma grenades, let alone Fat Man nuclear bombs.

The Cyrus Palace is dozens of meters high, and it is difficult to climb up. There is no navigator who can teleport up. The Wild Hunt soldiers can only shoot with bows and arrows.

For bows and arrows, horizontal shooting is one thing, and upward shooting is another. Shooting arrows at the roof of more than 60 meters on flat ground will not have much lethality even if it shoots up.

Fortunately, the quality of the Wild Hunt soldiers is high enough, otherwise they can't even touch the edge.

Marvin didn't even dodge the arrows shot from below, he was counting heads.

1, 2, 3... 7, 8, just right.

What are you waiting for? Ignoring the noisy Wild Hunt below, he returned to the center of the roof along the ridge and pressed the red button on the nuclear bomb.

Read the bar, teleport.

...

Nearly a thousand soldiers crowded in front of the Cyrus Palace. Although these are the elite among the elite, it is still difficult to enforce discipline.

This is a slave empire. The soldiers may be brave, but they cannot enforce discipline, not to mention that there are hundreds of wild hounds running around on the ground.

The scene is so chaotic, even if the navigator reacts, he may not have room to open a portal for them.

30 kilometers away, Marvin stood on the top of a sand dune, looking at the Cyrus Palace in the north.

Everything was silent, even the wind had stopped.

Another nuclear explosion occurred, the fireball expanded rapidly, and the mushroom cloud soaring into the sky dispersed the dark clouds that had shrouded the snowfield all year round.

Raven stood on Marvin's shoulder and jumped slightly, sighing: "Wow! It's so beautiful. This is my first time to see a nuclear explosion. I recorded it as a souvenir."

Marvin took out his helmet and put it on.

Raven turned around and asked, "Why are you bringing this? It doesn't match your clothes."

Marvin looked at the mushroom cloud rising into the sky and gradually dissipating and replied: "You'll find out later."

Only ten seconds later, the smoke and dust that covered the sky was pushed twenty kilometers away and then slowed down.

Then came the strong wind.

First, tiny grains of sand flew up, and then gravel and sand were blown by the strong wind, hitting Marvin's body with a crackling sound, and hitting his helmet with a clanking sound.

The raven's bones and feathers are made of extremely hard lightweight metal, and are filled with bionic muscle material, making it very light.

When the strong wind came, it directly knocked over this mean-mouthed bionic bird.

He was so immortal that he even spread his wings to maintain balance, and he immediately ascended to the sky.

The raven flapped in the air in panic and screamed: "Boss, help me!"

Marvin was well prepared for this. He teleported to catch Modus, helped him fold his wings, and then smashed him back into the desert like a stone.

Marvin is not light in weight, and his physical attribute of 58 does more than just strengthen his physical defense. He had already weighed an unknown amount more than an average person, and coupled with the weight of a ranger's breastplate, Frostwolf coat and a pair of boots, he was really no lighter than a stone.

After watching the peep show and recording the video, Marvin carried the settled raven and walked southward in the rising dust.

In fact, the Wild Hunt of Thousands of People did not originally require nuclear bombs to blow up, but firstly, they were afraid that the navigator would run away and they would not be able to find them one by one, and secondly, how could such a large and magnificent gate be destroyed? Cut with a knife or hit with a gun? So just blow it up, there will be no consequences at all.

The park didn't give any warning this time, and apparently approved of this operation.

[Tip: The mission "Void Pest" has been completed, and the mission evaluation is being calculated...]

[Tip: The mission "Void Pest" has been completed, and the mission rating is S+. The reward is +24 free attribute points and 6500 paradise coins. 】

[Tip: All tasks in this world have been completed. You must return to Order Paradise within 32 hours, or you will be forcibly repatriated after 32 hours. 】

The task time limit of 20 days and 640 hours was completed in less than half of the time by Marvin, and the evaluation was S+.

Take a short rest, then put on the power armor and go pick up the treasure chest with Raven.

Beautiful.

As for Zhengmei, another consciousness suddenly broke into Ma Wen's sea of ​​consciousness, "Outsiders, please don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm."

Marvin paused.

That consciousness continued to speak in his mind, "Oitro sent me to bring thanks. Go forward, I will be in front of you. The wind and sand here are really strong."

At this time, the wind had become very light, but the sand and dust still enveloped the disappeared Palace of Salles, covering the Gobi and the desert extending from the south.

The visibility was so low that Marvin couldn't see what was ahead.

This is not the first time he has come into contact with consciousness communication. The wizards in the Demon Hunter Continent also have similar methods. Many of the psychic professors at Arethusa College know this type of magic.

But they prefer to use this hand to wake up students who doze off in class.

Marvin had never enjoyed this kind of treatment. It was said that the effect was like having an alchemical bomb exploded in his ears, refreshing his mind.

Different from the magic of the mage, this unknown creature does not seem to use spell-like abilities, but more advanced psychic effects.

What he transmits is not even words, but a stream of consciousness, which makes people naturally understand the meaning.

In order to avoid accidents, Marvin put away the raven and continued walking forward to see what it was.

…

Note ①: On August 6, 1945, a B-29 bomber dropped the atomic bomb "Little Boy" on Hiroshima, Japan, killing 140,000 people. The bomber's pilot, Paul Tibbetts, never regretted that mission in his life, let alone felt guilty. In the same way, the protagonist has no regrets or guilt.

Note ②: Meriteli is the oldest god in the Demon Hunter continent, and the Meriteli Cult is also the oldest religion. Meriteri is a trinity of a pure girl, a middle-aged woman, and an old woman. In ancient times, she used to show miracles in three different images, but she has not appeared for a long time now. However, at least half of the women in the northern part of the mainland still believe in Meriteri.

In the first volume, the protagonist's physical mother, Queen Leianlun, was imprisoned by the Blood Queen and went crazy. She was cured by the priests and sorceresses of Meriteli Temple. After recovering from the illness, Leianlun converted to Meriteli. These are consistent with the original world background.

The legal religion of the southern Nilfgaardian Empire is Sun Cult. After Emhyr the Great came to power, politics and religion were unified, the Sun Cult became the state religion, and Emhyr also served as the pope.

Note: In the original work of The Witcher, there is very little description of the world of Ain El, and it only stays in the capital city of Tir Na Leah. There is also very little description of the social structure and characters. And because the game doesn't want to do a lot of useless modeling work, it describes it even less. Therefore, these ten or so chapters in this volume are basically second creations. I hope to expand this world a bit.

The third volume cannot have only these ten chapters. The world of the witcher will not end hastily, so don’t worry.
