The Divine Hunter Chapter 14: Destined failure

The time passed to midnight, and the lights in the town of Oxenfurt became faint, everything was quiet, and the bright moonlight projected onto the wide delta.

Hua Hua——Amidst the gentle ripples of the water, a dozen long, flat wooden boats rowed across the moon in the river in sequence, heading towards the quiet Academy Island.

Most of the places on the boat were filled with people, all with crossbows and scimitars wrapped around their waists, and their faces were cold.

The journey was uneventful, and soon after, the wooden boat landed on the shoal outside the island.

Vlodimy was the first to step out of the boat, stepped into the river water that was up to his ankles, and observed quietly. After about five minutes, he waved his hands suddenly, and more than a dozen wild boar soldiers set up wooden ladders, like wolves and tigers. Climb over the wall and go straight into the academy.

"Ogield..." Vladimir took hold of his brother's climbing body and lowered his voice, "You stay outside and lead a few brothers to guard the ship and guard the rear of the Wild Boar Army."

Ogield grimaced, "My brother, this is different from the original arrangement. It's your turn to stay where you are."

"No, listen to me!" Vladimir suddenly pressed Olgierd's neck, pulled his head in front of him, put his forehead against his forehead, and stared straight into his eyes, "Do you remember the previous rules? , you coordinate the overall situation from the rear, and I charge from the front, and I can win every time! Now we should follow the old rules."

"Besides, I am alone and have nothing to worry about, so I can do my best in everything I do. You are different. You bear the responsibility of reviving the family, and you also have to take care of Alice..."

Vlodimy looked around. Most of the brothers had already entered the academy and were quietly waiting for the boss to give orders.

"Think about it, Alice, the most beautiful and pure woman in the world, only a hero like you is worthy of her."

Vlodimy said with some jealousy, "If something happens to you, what will she do in the future? She will shed tears every day and die of excessive sadness?"

After saying that, Vladimir dragged Olgierd off the ladder without any hesitation, climbed up himself, and looked back at him again,

For some reason, at this moment, Olgierd's mind flashed back to the strange and terrifying dream last night, and he felt a little shaken.

He stayed.

…

The Academy Island under the moonlight is not as quiet as imagined. There are still many houses with lights on, where diligent students stay up late and study hard.

Vlodimy walked at the front of the wild boar army, half-crouching, restraining his steps, moving quickly from one big tree to another, moving quickly according to the map he had studied dozens of times in his mind.

Thirty sneaky figures followed him, keeping silent in a tacit agreement.

The process went surprisingly smoothly.

Soon after, they came to a huge spruce tree and saw the warehouse painted in camouflage colors.

Vlodimy breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled mockingly to himself, and asked his men to use the tools they had already prepared to open the chain of the warehouse door.

"Boss..." Barrel Punk quietly approached him, "Your previous idea worked really well."

"What's the idea?"

"Let the brothers eat more animal offal. Sure enough, many people's night blindness has been cured, otherwise they wouldn't be able to come tonight."

"Stop talking nonsense..." The crisp sound of the chain breaking sounded in Vladimir's ears, and he kicked the fat man in the butt. He had no time to mess around with him, "Let's go, you take the lead!"

"Huh?"

"Coward! Are you still afraid of those unconscious animals?"

Barrel Punk looked at the dark zoo gate, his face turned bitter, he couldn't help but cursed secretly, and then cautiously walked in step by step.

"You, and you..." Vladimir casually warned the two brothers again, "Stay outside!"

…

The rare zoo at night is as eerie as a sewer. There are constant whispers in the dark, and strange-shaped trees and shrubs stretch their branches and leaves on both sides of the road.

Occasionally, I am swayed by some unknown small animals.

Punk's arm holding the torch kept shaking, and he walked cautiously along the forest path. The people behind him held their breath and looked around cautiously.

It seemed as if some terrifying monster would suddenly jump out of the dark silence.

"No problem, I'm safe, um..." Punk kept giving himself psychological hints, "All dangerous animals have taken medicine and fallen asleep. Even if they are not asleep, more than 30 brothers behind me will The weapons inside also make them obedient."

"Goddess Meriteri bless..."

Perhaps the prayer took effect. Soon, the wild boar army led by Punk found the first target safely.

A reptile covered in scales, with sharp teeth and a long forked tail, was lying in the grass, motionless.

"Dragon lizard?"

Punk swallowed, gritted his teeth and threw a stone at it. The latter did not respond. He repeated it several times to confirm, and then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "I know it, I know it, hahaha !"

"Well done, dear cousin!" Vladimir patted him on the shoulder encouragingly, looking at the behemoth in front of him as if he were looking at a golden mountain, and immediately ordered a team of helpers to tie up the dragon lizard. Get on the stretcher and carry it to the warehouse door.

"The anesthetic has taken effect! Next, we will be divided into three groups of ten, and we will seize the time to search. I have also told everyone about the information on several rare animals. Don't make a mistake, tie up a worthless thing. Come back! The one who moves the fastest with nimble hands and feet will get an extra bonus."

"The boss is wise!"

The Wild Boar Army suddenly jumped for joy, and the fear in the invisible center also subsided a little.

"But remember, when you encounter conscious animals, call them with tranquilizer arrows immediately, do you understand?"

After Vladimi finished his instructions, the three groups of people disappeared into the darkness in different directions.

He led people towards the north of the warehouse, and faintly saw a pond over there. The pond reflected the faint moonlight, but halfway through the journey, a brother from the Wild Boar Army stopped everyone, "Boss, boss... I think I saw something running through the grass?"

Everyone's hearts trembled when they heard this, and they all nervously pulled out their bows and arrows and aimed at the darkness around them.

Vlodimy frowned and quietly held down the scimitar at his waist, "Deliberately scaring everyone? Are you sure you got it right?"

"I'm sure..." the witness' teeth were chattering, "a pair of gray-green or amber things, like cat pupils."

"There!"

He suddenly shouted and pointed at the grass in front of him. Everyone's eyes turned around. Under the light of the torch, a jungle of rustling elephant grass was instantly illuminated.

What's hiding behind?

"Gulu..." The sound of swallowing saliva was clearly audible.

Immediately after a "whoosh" sound, a member of the gang seemed to be too nervous and accidentally pulled Gabriel's trigger, and an arrow instantly shot into the grass.

The trembling stopped suddenly.

After a period of silent silence, a crisp and soft call suddenly sounded in the air, "Meow——"

"Huh..." Everyone pressed their chests and breathed a sigh of relief,

"I'm scared to death! Boss, tonight's action is so exciting."

"It's embarrassing for a group of grown men to be frightened by a wild cat!" Punk shook his head and strode towards the elephant grass, preparing to take care of the wild cat.

And Vladimir frowned, his intuition telling him that something was wrong, "Be careful, barrel...don't go there...did you hear me, I told you to come back!"

"Right away, boss..." Punk stopped in front of the grass and turned around slowly.

However, when everyone saw his face clearly, they couldn't help but be stunned - silently, a slender blood streak appeared in the center of his face, going down along the forehead, across the bridge of the nose, lips, and chin, dividing the face into equal parts. Two halves.

"What are your expressions? Why are you looking at me like this?" the fat man asked in surprise.

"Your face..."

"What's wrong with my face?" Punk gently touched his forehead with his fingers and felt the moist heat. Stretching it in front of my eyes, I was shocked to find a dazzling bright red.

"Blood? It's fake!"

"I...chuck...chuck..." The voice in Punk's throat quickly became blurry, and the next moment, bloodstains cracked along the location where his hand touched.

"Puff, puff, puff..." Blood gushed out, dyeing most of his face red. Punk fell backwards heavily, his eyes widened, and his breath disappeared. He remained frightened and stunned until his death.

"Punk!" Vladimi shot into the grass with eyes wide open, but something moved faster than him——

A black shadow jumped out of the grass first, and everyone could only vaguely see a humanoid creature, with its back arched and its limbs stretched out, like a bobcat or a cheetah pouncing on its prey, leaping across the air and skimming lightly. Pass the nearest wild boar soldier.

A bright sword light rippled in the air, dazzling the eyes.

The light of the sword passed away without any hesitation, and was dragged by the black shadow like lightning, and jumped into the grass on the other side,

"Pfft..."

A blood flower bloomed from the member's neck.

"Meow..." a joking male voice rang, "Run, mice!"

"Bastard!" Vladimi shot into the grass angrily, and the remaining members gathered around him in slight panic, shooting arrows wildly.

However, suddenly someone groaned and covered a certain part of his body, and was hit by a cold arrow shot from nowhere.

Obviously it is not a vital part, but it makes the whole body numb and unable to move.

"The arrows are poisonous, be careful, brothers!"

"Whoosh——" Another member fell down.

In just a few seconds, the ten-person team lost four members, and they couldn't even see the murderer's face clearly.

"It's a mutant!" Three members spontaneously surrounded Vladimir, and some others rushed into the grass desperately, "Trap! Brothers, run quickly, let's go, boss!"

"Abandoning my brother? Desecrating the honor of the Everik family?" Vladimir was trembling all over, his eyes were red, and deep anger and powerlessness surged in his heart.

"If your life is gone, what's the use of honor? If you don't run now, it's too late. Boss, you have to inform the other brothers! Yes, inform Brother Olgierd!"

The two wild boar soldiers ignored his wishes and dragged him away as hard as they could. The other stayed in place, controlled his trembling body, and roared.

This was the last sound he made in his life, and it quickly stopped like a shortened string.

Vlodimy reluctantly turned around after being dragged away, and could only see a ghostly shadow, so flexible that it seemed to be integrated with the sword light, flying around the brother and tearing him into pieces.

…

For a moment, huge noises were heard from other areas of the warehouse: the screams of humans one after another, the harsh collision of swords, and the muffled sound of sharp weapons entering flesh.

For Vladimir, the short journey of a few hundred meters when he came here seemed as long as his whole life...

The two brothers who were following him also disappeared, leaving behind him.

Vlodimy finally became frightened and ran away to the warehouse door with all his strength, holding a torch and even using his hands and feet, in a state of embarrassment.

He figured out that he must inform Olgierd, the only relative in this life, the person he loved most.

"Ogierd must accompany Alice and continue the bloodline of the Everrick family, and nothing will happen!"

He saw the door of the warehouse, hope was so close, he almost cried with joy.

But when he got closer, reality gave him a blow in the head.

The door was locked again.

Vlodimy was desperate and unwilling to hit him, time and time again, his skin and flesh were torn, but he could not shake the hard, cold steel.

When he lost all his strength and collapsed to the ground, he suddenly realized that almost all movement in the entire warehouse had stopped.

There was only the sound of slight footsteps on tiptoes from far to near.

A young demon hunter carrying two swords walked into his sight.

"Vlodimi Everik, right?" Roy's smile was sincere, "I'm sorry, I didn't originally plan to kill so many people. After all, a killing spree inside Oxenfurt Academy has a real impact. That’s bad. But the cat’s friends moved too fast and were very stubborn.”

Vlodimy gasped and his eyes widened. He wanted to see clearly what kind of devil the other party was?

"Witchers, we still underestimated you..." Vladimir closed his eyes and sighed, "How much reward did Linus Pitt promise?"

"What's wrong? Are you planning to bribe us?"

"That's right..." Vladimir took a deep breath, "As long as you don't care about this warehouse anymore and let us leave, we will split the payment in half."

"Do you know how much money it is? Even if you share it equally with four companions, you can squander it for several years."

The young witcher actually touched his chin and pretended to think seriously for a moment,

"What a tempting offer, but I refuse!"

"Why?!"

"There are so many reasons!" Roy smiled coldly and made a mark of Yaksi on the other party. "Go to sleep. When you wake up, you can be reunited with your relatives in prison."

Vlodimy's eyes blurred and he lost consciousness.

And Roy glanced at Black, the huge griffon who was sleeping on a stretcher not far away, his dark gold pupils flickering.

He just killed four minions and only had 80 experience points.

Now you only need to raise your hand, and two to three hundred experience points will be instantly credited to your account. The mutation-inducing substance of the grass decoction has also been found, and you can blame the intruder without any further trouble. After all, the sword has no eyes.

But this big guy has never hurt anyone, and it poses no threat to him.

Want to take action? Kill a monster that cannot resist.

…

On the other side, Olgierd squatted on the ferry and stared at the towering wall. His uneasiness became more and more intense. Due to excessive tension, he was covered in cold sweat, and the scene in front of him seemed to be gradually distorted.

Until a certain moment, there was suddenly another person in his sight——

A bald giant appeared on the wall~IndoMTL.com~The beast's vertical pupils stared down, flashing cold light.

The five or six brothers guarding the ship shot several arrows at the bald man, most of which were dodged by the giant man. One arrow was deflected by a burst of yellow light from his body.

"Demon hunter?" Olgierd woke up and was shocked, "So Vladimir and the others are already?"

The bald man didn't give him any more time to think. He suddenly jumped off the high wall, rolled to the ground, and then rushed to the side of the ship in the blink of an eye like a humanoid chariot. He swung the steel sword in his hand and shot it away easily. A companion.

The next second, his palm pushed towards him, the invisible airflow in the air condensed into a beam, and the huge impact hit Olgierd's body instantly.

He completely lost his balance and fell into the water in a daze.

A few splashes appeared on the water surface, and it became calm again.

The bald man ignored Olgierd who fell into the water. In his opinion, he was an extremely ordinary member of the Wild Boar Army.

He rushed towards the frightened men with no expression on his face!
