The Divine Hunter Chapter 13: Field
The red sun hangs high in the sky.
As the witcher left the dungeon, several thoughts ran through his mind.
Although Geralt and Yurga repeatedly told him about the strange red light, he thought it was necessary to see it with his own eyes and confirm it, and maybe he would gain something unexpected.
So he jumped out of the city wall of Mayena in a flash and quickly came to the wooden bridge over the canyon three miles north of the town.
At an altitude of tens of meters, corpses, broken carriage frames, and lush weeds can be vaguely seen in the canyon, while the decaying bridge deck is covered with clusters of oval-shaped green moss.
The demon hunter's expression suddenly changed and he stopped moving forward.
A strong wind blew from the canyon, and the wooden bridge began to sway violently from side to side. The wooden planks and the connecting iron chains rubbed against each other, making a Kazikaz sound, like a swing swinging between the canyons.
This level of shaking is not a problem for a witcher with excellent balance.
The sudden crisis originated from elsewhere——
Strong warning from Ancient Blood!
Roy was crouching on the wooden bridge, holding a crossbow, like a beast crawling in the grass, ready to attack or escape at any time.
Little Hei lay motionless on his left foot, as if sensing his master's mood, he obeyed and put away his whine.
Gulfen Black Cat was lying at his right foot, his dark eyes eager to explore, as if he wanted to find out for his master.
Of course, Roy didn't let it die.
He stared unblinkingly at the other side of the bridge. He didn't know what was hidden there, giving him a sense of fatal threat.
There is an abyss ahead of him, and there seems to be a huge mouth hanging below. If he continues to move forward, he will fall into the abyss and be eaten clean by the terrifying giant beast.
He waited quietly for ten minutes.
The warning signs lingering in my heart like poisonous snakes slowly disappeared.
Roy breathed a sigh of relief.
There may be something deeper hidden behind the secret that I want to investigate. Proceed with caution.
As soon as he stepped into the dense bushes on the other side of the canyon, the second threat came.
A subdued low growl surrounded him. At first he thought it was just the buzz of mosquitoes raging in the bushes.
But within ten steps, he realized that he was terribly wrong.
Among the shrubs and dense forests around him, a pair of amber eyes tilted upward at a forty-five-degree angle emerged.
It sparkles with the desire of flesh and blood.
Shua——
The witcher pulled out Arondette, arched his back and bent his knees, holding the long sword diagonally in front of his waist like a plow breaking through the soil. The unpretentious sword blade reflected a dull red light under the radiance of the morning sun. .
"Roar!" In the suppressed roar, more than ten wolves walked into his sight.
The witcher's pupils shrank into prismatic shapes.
They are much larger than ordinary wolves. Each one is as big as a calf, with gray-black fur all over its body, four thick claws, nails as sharp as sickles, and a high bulge between the shoulders and back. A few strands of bright red flesh hung on the pale teeth, and the cold eyes were fixed on the "prey" in the center.
He maintained a vigilant posture, as calm as a statue, and saw mutated words in his eyes.
"No wonder someone dares to attack people so early in the morning. This is no longer an ordinary beast, um... a mutated beast."
The attributes are half higher than those of ordinary wolves.
If ordinary people encounter them, they will definitely die without leaving any trace of their bodies!
The witcher suddenly raised his left hand and made a concise gesture with his fingers.
A golden talisman of Quen covered the leather armor all over his body.
Continuous outline.
A kaleidoscope-like brilliant halo of Arden emerged at his feet.
The leading wolf was angered by his actions and roared.
It's like a signal.
A fishy wind and the sound of sharp claws piercing the air came from Roy's front and back. A wolf with a grin showing its sharp teeth rushed towards him, and the others also flew towards him at an alarming speed.
The demon hunter turned around and his sword flashed.
The head of the wolf that rushed from behind flew one meter into the air, dragging a line of blood.
Roy's face was expressionless, and with a big jump, he took the initiative to break into the remaining wolves.
Alondette swung his sword with incredible speed, like a violent wind and lightning, overturning the sky with sword light, and gushing flames mixed in with it.
Shrouded the wolves.
Roy performed an elegant and deadly sword dance among the wolves.
Every time I wave my hand or take a step, a flower of life withers under the light of the sword.
The whistling sound of the long sword was continuous, accompanied by the sounds of skin and flesh splitting, bones breaking, wails and roars, and heavy objects falling to the ground.
Thirty seconds later.
The bushes regained their tranquility, even the leaves were still.
After a while, the lively chirping of birds on the branches in the distance began again, and the cats and dogs began to howl and meow again.
Roy stood among a pile of torn wolf corpses, slowly wiping the blood on the sword with a piece of fur, and a shallow **** mouth appeared on the side of his face.
Kill the wolf (mutation)*10, experience value +20*10, witcher level 12 (8500/12500).
……
Roy squatted down, not dissatisfied with the stench that hit his face, and dug out the internal organs in the wolf's belly and inspected them carefully.
"There is no trace of artificial modification, a spontaneous mutation? Is it the reason for that red forest?"
He took the most completely preserved wolf corpse into the space as evidence, and he dug a big hole to bury the remaining body parts.
"Bang!"
Throws a red fireball with his left hand, igniting flesh and blood corpses and burning them to ashes to prevent the birth of scavenging monsters that endanger others.
The burning corpses included three **** people, probably the unlucky ones who passed by the wooden bridge in recent days and were eaten up by wolves.
There were no further attacks.
The green and lush birch forest about five miles north of Mayena is exactly the area where the strange red light was described by the merchant.
A week has passed since the incident, and the red light has completely disappeared.
Only the dense and straight trees are like undulating saw teeth, reaching into the sky. The green branches and leaves are swaying under the gentle breeze, which is quite the quiet beauty of the wilderness.
But as soon as the witcher stepped into the dense forest, the viper pendant around his neck immediately hummed and hummed.
"There is indeed residual energy."
Even if the red light has disappeared for a week, the remaining energy intensity is still not low.
My eyes passed over the thick tree trunks, nothing unusual for the moment.
He became more and more confused as to why three of the four people could survive.
The honorary ambassador was burned to ashes.
When Roy walked to the center of the birch forest, the pendant vibrated violently, like a sparrow struggling in a net.
The witcher takes some measurements.
The area once covered by red light was only fifty or sixty meters in diameter.
There is a natural dividing line.
A variety of flowering plants grow within the dividing line, ranging from winding vines to purple-red oleanders, dotted with brilliant daylily flowers.
The demon hunter's feet were covered with colorful roses and orchids, where Xiao Hei and Gelfin had a great time catching wind and butterflies, and were overly excited.
Little animals seem to like this area.
Beyond the dividing line, even the same rose bush is not as strong, delicate and radiant as within the boundary, and the growth status is very different.
More than just roses.
Roy confirmed that all plants, including birches, within the dividing line generally grew stronger, as if they were nourished by some special breath of life and bloomed wildly.
Roy thought of the surprisingly large group of mutant wolves just now.
"Is it possible that they once stayed here and were affected by the red light?"
But if the remaining energy of red light can nourish wild animals and plants.
The original honorary ambassador Ainz met a miserable end, being burned to ashes.
Among humans, humans, animals and plants, the effects of red light are actually different?
"What exactly is the principle?"
"Woof woof!" came an anxious dog bark~IndoMTL.com~The **** Golfing cat playfully grabbed Xiao Hei's neck and ran away, running around and having fun,
"Stop it! Gorfen, have you been brainwashed by energy? Come here and let me check your body!"
……
Next, Roy searched the woods several times, but could not find any clues except for the unusually lush plants.
Finally, I dug a large bag of soil, cut down a birch branch, and picked a few blooming flowers as evidence.
Go to your next destination.
There is no doubt that the red light has profoundly affected the laws of nature and changed this forest area.
As for Druid, a master of the natural way, he will definitely be able to see something strange and interesting!
There happened to be a Druid Circle around Mayena, and he first had to find out the news about this place.
