The Divine Hunter Chapter 18: Plan
, the fastest update to the latest chapter of God-level Demon Hunter!
As soon as they arrived at the city gate, the Princess Guards were respectfully welcomed into the carriage by the Bodrog soldiers who had been waiting for a long time, but the Witcher was left far behind and completely disappeared.
This made Ciri quite angry!
"Where on earth am I going!?" Xili opened the curtain of the carriage, glanced at the neat but monotonous road outside the carriage with her big green eyes, and asked impatiently.
The little maid immediately folded her hands and begged pitifully,
"Your Highness, you must be tired after traveling all the way. Why don't you go to the arranged place to rest for a day? When Verdon's ambassador arrives tomorrow, he will take you to Nastrog to meet your fiancé."
Nastrog is located southwest of Verden and west of Podrog. It is also one of the military fortresses on the border between Verden and Sintra, but it also has a special identity - the capital of Verden.
King Ewell and Prince Christian of Verden settled here.

"That's unreasonable!" Xili's little face wrinkled, "Still on the way? This princess is really tired and doesn't want to move anymore. Let that guy Christine come to see me in person!"
Speaking, Xili suddenly pinched the tender flesh of the maid's cheek,
"I want to correct some of your mistakes! That fat man is not my fiancé!"
Xili pursed her lips, "How could I be engaged to him... Well, this time I am going to make it clear to Uncle Ewell that I don't want to marry that **** fat man."
"Lord Om! You must not mess with the secret order of Her Majesty the Queen." The round-faced maid felt the gentle massage-like force on her face and said hesitantly,
"Damn it! Grandma loves me so much, how could she..." Xili let go of her hand, waved her fist angrily in front of the relieved maid, and snorted heavily, "How dare you lie? I, when I return to Sintra, I will chop... chop off your head, as well as those idiots outside!"
Outside the carriage, Krauser, who was sitting next to the coachman, listened to his princess's complaints, his face changed, and he couldn't help but hang his head in shame.
After a while, his expression turned bitter.
What a shame it is to send your young princess to get engaged. He could almost imagine that when their engagement was announced to the world, it would be a day of humiliation for the Cintra royal family.
Obviously Verden is a vassal state of Cintra, but Princess Cirilla is so much more noble than the obese Prince Christine of Verden?
However, today, the priorities seem to be reversed, and they, the warriors of Cintra, have to give the princess away in order to gain the support of Verden's military strength.
"Alas..." Krauser, a veteran of Cintra, once again had a vague thought in his mind,
"Queen Calanthe is getting older, and she no longer has the determination and courage she had when facing the aggressive southern overlord."
However, the queen just didn't want Sintra to follow the footsteps of the Naser Kingdom.
……
A simple tavern in Bodrog City.
"A glass of cherry wine..." A tall man in a gray cloak knocked on the mottled wine table,
"Sorry, guest, are you a foreigner?"
"Yeah."
"Our pub does not produce cherry wine, why not try the local specialty dark beer..."
"Forget it..." Roy shook his head. He never liked bitter beer, let alone the so-called malty aroma. He prefers fruit wine with a slightly sweet taste and low alcohol content. Although he was laughed at by the three guys from Lei Suo for a long time, he still remained the same.
"Then have a glass of cider and some grilled fish."
"Okay! Wait a minute!" The waiter in the tavern saw the man's dark golden eyes, which were as cold as a beast. His heart felt cold and he didn't dare to take a closer look, but he couldn't help but muttered when he turned around.
This strange man with a cloak covering his body looked a bit chilly, but he didn't expect that he liked the kind of wine that women drink.
"This appearance is really for nothing!"
What the waiter didn't know was that when he lowered his voice, the guy behind him with abnormal hearing heard every word he said.
"Huh..." Roy smiled and didn't care. Now he almost turned a deaf ear to other people's gossip.
After figuring out the address where Shiri was staying, he took a tour around Bodrog. Bodrog was naturally not as prosperous as Sintra, but most of the barges arriving here only used it as a transit point. Station, as soon as you get off the boat, you rush to other cities without stopping. However, there are many military fortresses that are the same, so most of the people living in the city are army soldiers stationed here.
In broad daylight, life in the tavern was sparse. Apart from him, there were only a few tired soldiers visiting here.
"Remember those new faces at noon?"
"My memory is still fresh, good fellow, there were more than a dozen big men with big muscles and round waists. Judging from their physiques and walking habits, they have obviously received military training."
The two soldiers were close to each other, whispering, and Roy's ears perked up.
"Who is that tall man? I've seen a ghost. I never knew that the captain could act like that, with his waist so bent that he was almost touching the ground."
"Are you blind? The one with the noble status is not the man, but the girl in the middle!"
After speaking in a suppressed voice, the soldier carefully looked at the guests in the tavern, especially the sinister cloaked man. After a long time, he saw the cloaked man with his face pressed against the wine glass, his eyes blurred, and he seemed drunk.
He just leaned into his companion's ear and said something.
The latter's eyes widened, "You're lying, can Verdon...can you have this honor?"
The soldier who revealed the news said proudly, "My brother-in-law works as a clerk in the Baron's House. This is his version, but it is indistinguishable. Just wait, the paper can never cover the fire, this matter Sooner or later, the matter will be made public!"
"Harvest Festival!" The soldier on the opposite side suddenly brightened his eyes and grabbed a handful of messy hair. "It's not long before the Harvest Festival. Such a grand event must wait until the Harvest Festival is announced."
"That's right, what did the fancy bard say? Joy upon joy, the whole world celebrates!"
"Also, you kid, please be strict with your mouth. If you talk nonsense everywhere, I can't protect you!"
……
"Harvest Festival?" Roy licked the wine stains from the corner of his mouth with lingering thoughts, his heart swaying slightly, and he thought of the beautiful sorceress Coral again, with her gentle words and fiery body.
It's a pity that I won't be able to make it to Kailac for the sorceress's appointment within the year.
"Well, business matters."
"Ciri, getting engaged to Christine at Harvest Festival?"
According to the "history" he knew well, the little guy would escape from the engagement on the way to the engagement, and then accidentally escape into the territory of the tree spirit. With the strong lucky halo, he would run around without any danger. , and was finally rescued.
Ciri's savior is also one of the purposes of Roy's trip, the white-haired demon hunter of the Wolf Faction, Geralt. He once played the protagonist without sleep or food.
Geralt lifted the curse on Ciri's father and used the law of accident to designate the reward - the unborn child Ciri!
It can be said that Ciri is the destined daughter of White Wolf.
……
In addition to getting in touch with the White Wolf, this trip is also to see the legendary Brok Leon water that can transform tree spirits and stimulate ancient bloodlines.
Whether this mysterious liquid can transform the bloodline he obtained by swallowing the blood of the sun.
But Roy still had concerns. Because of his previous actions and his intervention in Sintra, will the originally destined reunion of father and daughter change? Or deviation.
Whether this insignificant butterfly will have an impact on the world remains to be verified.
Thinking about it, he waved to the waiter.
"Do you want more wine?"
"Ask you something~IndoMTL.com~Where is the east of Podlog City?"
"East...east?" The waiter's expression froze,
"Yes..."
"It was a wasteland."
"What about further east?"
"Guest, you can't go any further! You must not go any further east! That is a forbidden area! I...I have heard of many lost travelers who have strayed into it, and no one has been able to escape so far!"
The waiter spat as he spoke, and suddenly his face was full of horror, "Some old hunters nearby said that there were screams of monsters there, man-eating monsters! You don't want to go to that place, do you?"
The waiter subconsciously moved slightly away from the witcher.
The witcher threw him a crown, "Stop talking nonsense, where is that place?"
"Five miles to the east, there is a virgin forest. The old hunters call it Broccolion."
