The Divine Hunter Chapter 14: Wardnick
A small dark brown wooden boat was moored among the water plants and tied to Qizui Rock by a cable.
Lambert untied the rope, jumped on board, and expertly swung the oars.
Roy sat leisurely and comfortably on the bow of the boat, scooping up the cold river water and cleaning the blood stains on his armor.
Looking at the misty hills in the distance and the vast expanse of blue water.
The mood becomes pleasant.
"A place with beautiful scenery is the best place to recall the past. Lambert, would you mind telling me how you came to Kaer Morhen?"
"A boring and over-familiar story," Lambert did not hide his life experience at all. "A drunken and confused father went to the woods to urinate at night, and ended up breaking into the evil spirit's lair. The demon hunter saved his life, uttered those magic words, and came up with the unexpected law of 'the first thing you see when you return home as reward'."
"Then my life was exchanged for that drunkard's, and I was taken to Kaer Morhen." He tilted his head, raised the corners of his mouth, and smiled sarcastically. "Following a bunch of apprentices to eat, live and train together, survived the trial of green grass. Became an 'acrobatic mutant'."
Roy was silent. It seemed that except for himself, none of the demon hunters had a happy childhood.
"Alcoholic dad? Most alcoholics have bad tempers. Have you ever been beaten severely?"
"That guy is a bastard! Hitting and scolding is just a common occurrence. Usually my mother and I suffer together!"
"So, by taking you away, Vesemir is rescuing you from the Devil's Cave in disguise." Roy said, "If you go home now, let's see if he dares to hit you!"
"I went back once, and the old guy was buried in the ground a long time ago! But before he died, he also beat my mother to death." There was sourness in the corners of Lambert's eyes, "If I hadn't been taken away, maybe It can help her share some of the pressure and let her survive."
"Come on, man, if you weren't a demon hunter, you would have been ruined by that drunkard a long time ago." Roy said seriously, "From this point of view, Vesemir has changed your life and kept you away from Domestic violence."
"Boy, listen to what you mean, I should thank him for letting me enjoy training day after day, which is much more painful than being beaten."
"Let me witness in the trial that a friend who is as close as a brother and sister is torn in half by a one-eyed monster?"
Lambert stopped sliding the oars and sneered disdainfully, "What kind of soup did Vesemir fill you with? You like him so much and you beat around the bush to say good things for him?"
"I'm just telling the truth. Lambert, think about your current skills, the power you have, and the freedom you enjoy. There is always a price to pay for gaining power."
"But that was not my choice! He forced it!"
"Will you accept students in the future?" Roy suddenly asked inexplicably.
"Why not?! As long as I can find it!" Lambert replied without thinking.
Roy asked thoughtfully, "If becoming a witcher is torture, then why do you need to recruit apprentices to continue the pain?"
"This..." Lambert was speechless for a moment.
Yes, if he hates the identity of a demon hunter, why is he not opposed to recruiting apprentices?
……
"Bang..." The wooden boat passed through the narrow ditch and hit the soft mud and sand.
Lambert jumped onto the waterfront in uncharacteristic silence.
Roy followed him, walking less than five meters along the shallow puddle, and was about to say something else.
Suddenly he stopped and moved his nose.
"Do you smell it?"
"The smell of rancid water——"
"Shua——"
The bright white light comes out of the sheath.
The two men silently bent their knees and squatted in a tight fighting posture like a crab. They held a sword in their right hand, outlined the five fingers of their left hand, and surrounded themselves with a golden shield.
Almost at the same time, in the reeds not far from the wooden boat, the river surface seemed to be boiling water, with bubbles rising in circles.
Suddenly exploded!
A humanoid monster covered in blue fish scales, with webbed hands and feet, and a slippery body jumped out!
There are six heads in total.
"Wow!"
The water ghosts who smelled the aroma of fresh meat rolled their pale eyeballs and grinned from ear to ear, revealing a row of jagged saw teeth.
It almost jumped over with dancing!
"Lambert, Kaer Morhen is really a nest of monsters!" Roy said happily, turning his wrist, Arondette's sword pointed directly at the distinctive water ghost in the center. .
The whole body is green and black, with a circle of fins growing around the ears, and two catfish whiskers growing on the lower lip.
The two bulging "black beans" in the scarlet eyes flashed cunningly.

Leader (passive solidification): The leader of the water ghost community is smarter than most imbeciles and can command and organize his subordinates to attack.
…
"Boy, don't you like these hospitable 'little animals'? Come and say hello to them!"
Lambert teased, tapping his toes on the ground, his figure like the wind, waving his silver sword and rushing towards the three-headed water ghost.
Roy was not slow in his actions and intercepted the other three before they formed a circle.
Jump into the pile of water ghosts.
Arondette's vertical blade changed to a horizontal blade.
Using the left foot as the center of gravity, facing the direction of the water ghost's attack, twist and slash!
"Shua——"
The dark red sword blade was as fast as thunder, drawing a slanted straight line.
A rain of blood is falling!
"Crash..." The steaming internal organs fell to the ground.
A water ghost was cut in half directly from the waist!
"Bang!"
The air exploded, and the demon hunter pushed quickly with his left hand. Alder pushed the second water ghost back into the air and sat down on the soft mud.
The fishy wind blew away the strands of hair on the temples, and the third head, called the Wodnik Water Ghost, launched a sneak attack from the side without saying a word!
Thriller bit into the demon hunter's neck with a **** mouth, and the thick rancid saliva on his dark tongue almost dripped onto his shoulder.
Shua——
Forearm muscles bulge.
The demon hunter didn't look back, he just held the sword hilt with both hands and lifted it from the lower left to the upper right.
The rounded handle hit Wodnik's chin.
"Click!"
A huge force exploded in the mandible, and Wodnik's two rows of broken teeth closed involuntarily!
Blood sprayed out, and a soft tongue broke and fell off.
The witcher turned around and kicked Wodnik with the tip of his left foot!
It's crawling on the ground!
While it was wailing and shaking, the five fingers of the demon hunter's left hand clasped the unedged middle part of the long sword, and held the rough hilt of the sword with his right hand, like holding a spear and stabbing it down diagonally!
Blood stained a clump of reeds red.
Arondette penetrated a neck and severed the cervical vertebrae.
"Kill Waldwick, experience value +100, the witcher buzzes - buzz -" The blood on the long sword was not dry, and it was slashed diagonally backward with the witcher's waving arm, cutting open a section. With a soft and cold body.
The witcher then took a step forward, holding the sword in both hands. ~IndoMTL.com~ One pull.
With a broken eyeball on his head, the water ghost staggered back two steps and fell to the ground.
The body twitched and lost movement.
"Call—"
Roy breathed a sigh of relief and dissected the harvest.
After a moment, Wodnik looked delighted and provided a small, exquisite, wrinkled ordinary-level mutation inducer.
It is still one short of the requirement for an intermediate demon hunter.
On the other side, Lambert's battle came to an end, leaving behind three corpses and wiping his silver sword gracefully and calmly.
"Boy, the way you greet me is too fierce, so you can't be gentler. Look at them, they are so ecstatic..." Lambert glanced at the young man who was pulling the water ghost's tongue. , shook his head,
"I just want to be gentle, but I'm afraid they will kill me!"
