The Divine Hunter Chapter 15: Complete
Cintra.
The air was cold and cold, and there were two dark clouds hanging on the horizon.
A man dressed in coarse linen and dressed as a sailor walked through the winding alleys and entered the noisy market, stopping at various empty stalls from time to time.
He carried a white radish and walked to the stall where the cattle and sheep were enclosed, and pretended to nibble on it. He turned his eyes towards the bustling crowd and quietly pricked his ears.
The narrow-eyed livestock dealer took a puff of his pipe, "It's very strange today. The soldiers on the street all stared like bells, as if all the passers-by were **** robbers. The Winter Solstice is coming, so there's nothing wrong with it." Is this coming out? Is it possible that a bunch of foreign envoys are coming to Sintra?"
"Speak softly..." The fish vendor next to him made a silent gesture and smiled mysteriously, "Don't let anyone hear you!"
"Who?"
"Idiot, use your pig brain! Ever since the news came from the south, there have been some evil worms and bad seeds in our great motherland - they dare not really confront the warriors of Sintra, preferring They are playing tricks, they should be cleaned up long ago! Hang them on the gallows!"
"Today, the wise and mighty His Majesty East finally made the right decision!"
……
"Click!"
The sailor stuffed the last piece of crispy radish into his mouth, wiped his sweaty hands with the corner of his clothes, and quickly left the market and walked towards the city gate.
A group of heavily armed soldiers patrolled the streets. If they encountered someone whose appearance and accent were different from the locals, they would stop and question them. In just a few hundred meters, the sailor passed several waves of soldiers and witnessed with his own eyes a man wearing a cloak. A sneaky man, a businessman with a white hat on his head, gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and a Nasser accent, was taken away.
"Bah!" The sailor cursed in his heart and turned his eyes to the city gate.
A black luxury carriage is parked at the gate of the city. The side of the carriage is inlaid with the Sintra royal emblem of the three lions on a blue background. A group of knights surround the carriage, wearing tight and shiny plate armor, with powerful figures and powerful eyes. Sharp as an eagle.
Through the carriage's gold-speckled curtains, he could vaguely see a majestic profile, very royal, just like the profile on currency.
Beside the carriage, the city gate was much more heavily guarded than before. The original five guards were replaced by fifteen, and the number of stone crossbowmen on the battlement above increased several times.
Every citizen entering or exiting the city gate was severely interrogated.
If anything went wrong, a pile of weapons would be held to his neck and he would be escorted back to prison.
A trace of thought flashed in the sailor's dark eyes, he rubbed his chin and quickly ducked under the eaves on both sides of the street.
After passing through a dark and narrow alley, he came to a dilapidated two-story small western-style building in the south of Sintra.
I was just about to step up the stairs and go home and hide for a while.
The distant noise made his heart tremble.
Three soldiers wearing chainmail and carrying long swords were whispering to an old man wearing a felt hat and a red face. The old man's rough hands were gesticulating vividly in front of him, obviously describing someone. height and appearance.
As soon as the sailor showed his head, the sharp eyes of a soldier standing on the second floor instantly locked onto his figure.
"He's there! Chase him!"
In an instant, three soldiers rushed down the stairs like wolves and tigers and chased after them.
The latter's face changed drastically, and without saying a word he slipped into the alley, stepping on the dirty ground and garbage piles, and ran for his life.
A fierce shout came from behind.
It's like poking a swarm of wasps.
He has no chance to hide!
The soldiers patrolling along the street heard the greeting and joined the pursuit one after another, chasing him while shouting.
"Stop it, bastard!"
"A spy who kills a thousand cuts, may you catch malaria!"
The man's chest heaved rapidly and he hid all the way, panting and sweating profusely, and barely managed to escape to the port of Sintra.
"Whoosh—"
A crossbow arrow fell at his feet, and a hole opened in the ground. The broken arrow scratched his thigh, and blood flowed across it.
The port guards rushed over, their waving steel swords reflecting the bright white light.
A trace of panic flashed in the sailor's eyes, and he looked around. On the ships in the port, the proud masts were swaying in the strong wind, and there was no sunlight in the dim sky.
With pursuers behind and interceptions in front, there is almost no way to escape. The only way out is the endless sea at the port.
He gritted his teeth suddenly, a trace of determination showing on his pale cheeks.
"The great blessing of the sun!"
The man accelerated towards the port and jumped suddenly.
"Plop!"
A series of bubbles appeared on the surface of the sea.
All sounds disappear!
The cold sea water slid over his thighs, waist, chest, and cheeks, completely engulfing him.
……
"Wow..."
A face emerged from the water.
The mirror in front of the washstand reflected a pair of dark gold and silver-grey pupils, and a handsome nose.
Drying the water on his face with a towel, Roy showed a smile.
Another pretty face emerged from behind his shoulder, Rita Nied’s chin rested on his shoulder, her side cheek pressed against his,
Hold his waist from behind.
There was a smile on the red lips, and the hair brushed the witcher's cheek, exuding the rich fragrance of roses.
"To Gawain's house?" She giggled, twisting her body against him like a little girl.
"Well, it's almost time for Ms. Evelin to cap the greenhouse today... maybe I have to help her." Roy leaned back slightly, feeling the softness on his back.
"A master demon hunter turned into a farmer..."
"Who said that I am the most idle member of the entire brotherhood?" He smiled self-deprecatingly.
In the past month, Roy transformed into a construction worker and spent most of his time at Gawain's House, assisting Leitho, Evelyn, several agricultural apprentices, and alchemy apprentices in building greenhouses and reservoirs, and reclaiming wasteland.
The initial transformation of the two acres of land was finally completed according to Druid's plan.
Occasionally, he also plays a guest role as a teacher, telling some short stories about life philosophy to thirty newcomers.
"After a month of getting along, what's your impression of that Druid master?" the woman asked curiously, smearing a cool cream on the man's cheek with both hands,
"To be honest, Evelin doesn't look like a woman...Coral, can you please stop putting these slippery things on my face?" Roy turned his face away uncomfortably, with full recovery skills, his Her skin is naturally smoother and more supple than most women’s,
"No! You have to learn to take care of yourself when you are young. It will be too late when you are old. Think of your brothers, all of them are so rough-skinned that they can sharpen their knives."
The witcher rolled his eyes and reluctantly gave up arguing with the sorceress,
"Evelin." the woman reminded with satisfaction.
"She was more determined than most men, and had a hard-charging, energetic, and muscular style. She seemed to have little interest in anything but flora and fauna. The two tough guys at Oakes Lambert were there. She suffered a lot."
This month, the two over-enthusiastic witchers tried many times to invite Ms. Evelin out for drinks after work.
As a result, she was rejected by the other party in a natural way. In the end, she was so annoyed that she used the druid's ancestral staff method to teach the two of them a lesson, and posted a notice in their residence - Oakes and Lambert are forbidden. near.
Another story popped into Roy's mind - Evelin occasionally squatted at the gate of Gawain's house and looked quietly at her. She must have accepted Calanthe's commission to help inspect the school.
If the inspection passes, Xili can come and travel for a few days.
"Not to mention those two fools on the head of the static insect, you have to keep a distance from her anyway, understand!" The sorceress's cold and soft hands began to apply the second cream on his face.
"Understood, my lady." Roy bared his teeth
"Well, don't just be busy farming, take these good things over and give them to those little guys who can't wait."
"Predrug?" Roy took over a row of small and exquisite glass tubes, with mysterious and beautiful translucent liquid rippling in them.
"Well, Kalkstein and I spent several months developing it... Once the four children have finished twelve 'treatments', it's time to move on to the next step."
Roy felt refreshed.
Finally, the large-scale green grass trial is coming.
"Also, remember to bring some mutants back. The laboratory's reserves have been exhausted...the repair of the gargoyle heart and the mutant conversion solution are still waiting."
"Thank you, my coral!"
"Did you drink honey today?" Rita chuckled, a hint of relief flashed in her blue eyes, she hugged him and gave him a sweet kiss, "Behave well, maybe next time we can try it in the tree hole. Give it a try."
What the **** is a tree hole?
He would rather choose the sloping roof of the house where the stars and moon illuminate the house, the terrace where the wind intoxicates the morning, and the canoe bumping on the sea...
……
Return to Gawain's House.
After Monty, Akamtom, Chanem, and Lloyd got the pre-drug, they happily showed it off to the seven newcomers for a long time, couldn't wait to take it, and then rolled on the floor in pain like an epileptic attack. , Foaming at the mouth.
This is all left to the cat vulture to end.
Roy walked alone through the alder forest overgrown with wild grass and came to the botanical garden.
Compared to a month ago, this originally desolate and empty land has changed drastically.
Evelin used exquisite natural magic to adjust the land into several square areas according to the salinity, neatly separated by ditches and wooden fences, and planted plants suitable for growth.
More than half of the ground has been sown with seeds, and green buds are emerging from the soil, thriving, and we can foresee a lush and green scene in the future.
In some places, wooden poles have been erected artificially for vines such as the roots of Clinhella vine and the symbiotic buds of purple eldergrass to cling to.
Then plant shade-loving herbs further down. They will grow in the light of the sunlight that falls between the vines.
Roy turned his eyes and caught a glimpse of a circular pool with a diameter of more than ten meters in the corner of the botanical garden. Acorus, Vallisneria, adenophora, Houttuynia cordata, etc. were growing slowly in it, like young fry emerging from the water. A green head emerges.
In the middle of the botanical garden, in the area with the most sunlight, there is a warehouse-like greenhouse built of logs, covering an area of more than a quarter of the botanical garden, where rare herbs that are the most difficult to grow are cultivated.
"Come on! Teacher Roy!" Vicky stood in front of the greenhouse door and waved her little hand at him desperately, her blond hair rippling behind her head, and the sunlight filtering through the cracks in the forest revealed a few drops of crystal sweat on the tip of her nose. beads.
Renee, Conrad, and the five alchemy apprentices and agricultural apprentices, Oreo, Terry, and Beem, also raised their little heads, unblinking, staring at the top of the greenhouse with excitement.
Roy walked over, and the bald man nodded to him. He followed the gazes of Keyan, Oaks, and Seret beside him——
This open-top greenhouse is very spacious.
Druid Evelin stood below, closing her eyes lightly, opening her arms as if to feel it quietly.
The green bark woven clothing made her look like a small oak tree entwined with vines, and a group of beautiful Apollo butterflies, giant owl butterflies, and bees were flying around her.
Under her feet, there are small wooden squares filled with soil...
Clusters of seeds have grown vigorously into buds the size of fingernails.
Roy roughly identified——
The five-star leaf mignonette, the densely grown unknotted fungus in a large square grid, the dark black arrow-shaped sawtooth fern with long leaves, the feathery blood pond moss, the crow's eye potato with sparkling tubers, and the petals with tiger stripes The sage orchid, the best antidote for dispensing the large leaf vine...
There are more than thirty kinds of rare plants.
"In a few years, when the botanical garden begins to take shape... there will be no shortage of bases for refining most potions."
Evelin, who was standing still, suddenly made a move.
His hands were as flexible and graceful as a white crane flapping its wings, and he waved back.
A few seeds fell to the ground as she moved.
Suddenly, the pendant around the demon hunter's neck began to tremble rapidly, as if a bird was about to escape from its cage, and the rich magical aura visible to the naked eye flashed crazily.
A large emerald green light surged out of Evelin's body.
The six children couldn't help but widen their eyes and open their mouths.
She seemed to use magic power to weave a large net that spread around. The origin of the net was her body, and the destination of the net was the seeds she had just sown.
Thousands of emerald green lines connect Druid and nature.
Spurred by the invisible magic power, a wonderful scene appeared in front of everyone's eyes - the seeds that had just fallen to the ground split open at an alarming speed and quickly took root and sprouted, completing a process that would take ordinary plants several years in a few seconds.
Green vines as thick as an arm emerged from the soil, swelled, and stretched across the air. Driven by an invisible force, they stretched towards the top wall of the greenhouse and penetrated into the gaps between the wood. Further integration.
After that, the vines are based on the winding point, and the lower rhizomes are pulled away from the soil and tilted upward. The vines in three directions gather towards the center to form an original green umbrella, leaving only a strip that is either extensive or Narrow gaps.
“Huh——” Evelin let out a long breath, and suddenly her body trembled. She knelt on one knee and fell forward, her broad forehead covered with cold sweat.
Roy observed it again. In just ten seconds, all the magic power in her body was exhausted, and she fell into a strange dizzy state.
A few children and Kiyaen rushed forward to help the woman up. The latter smiled gratefully at them, sat cross-legged and meditated to recover.
"What a hell, a woman." Oakes and Lambert shook their heads and lamented, "turning a blind eye to the handsome and handsome guy, and instead having a lively chat with the ugliest among us!"
"I told you two ugly people not to murmur like resentful women! Can't Kyaan have a sparkling soul? Hurry up and put the crystal on it!"
The bald man took out the crystals divided into prisms from the alchemy package. The four of them worked together to climb up the roof like spiders and fix them between the gaps in the green vines.
This was a last resort. It would be too extravagant and wasteful to completely cover the top of the greenhouse with crystals, so everyone had to use the druid's magic vines to create a roof that could be adjusted at any time.
These crystals will filter out the harmful components of sunlight and provide the right light for herbal plants, allowing them to bloom lushly and shine with eye-popping brilliance.
……
Everyone looked at this greenhouse that looked like it was made from nature, and couldn’t help but feel relieved. ~IndoMTL.com~ Ms. Evelin, the botanical garden has finally been established, and I will be busy with you this month. ”
The witchers and their apprentices expressed their sincere gratitude to her.
"It is my duty, not to mention cultivating plants is also a practice of communicating with nature for me."
The woman leaned against the wall and took a deep breath, feeling the scent of the plants in the fields, with a smile on her lips.
"Now the most difficult initial stage of the botanical garden has been completed. In the next few years, it only needs to be cultivated and expanded step by step. For the sake of convenience, I will settle here in the future..."
"Sister Evelin...can I still come and ask questions?" Vicky's little face was full of longing.
"Come on, three little ones, learn more about herbal medicine from me, which will help improve your alchemy level."
"And you, Keyan, are welcome at any time." The woman smiled heartily at the cat-sect demon hunter, her blue-purple eyes filled with an inexplicable look, as if she didn't care about his terrifying face at all. "As for the other masters, if you have nothing important to do, please try not to disturb me."
Kiayan rubbed the back of his head and grinned, a trace of shyness appearing on his rough face covered with scars.
"Let's go, little devils, what are you looking at?" Oaks and Seret looked at each other and decided not to bring trouble to themselves. They picked up their hoes and led the three miserable agricultural apprentices back to continue farming.
Roy and Leisuo exchanged glances, with a tacit understanding in their hearts.
The encounters in life are so bizarre. The disfigured demon hunter suddenly met a druid with whom he could talk.
……
Things in the botanical garden have come to an end for the time being.
After Roy returned to the yard and talked with the cat vulture, he made a plan to take the four apprentices who had just recovered from the pain of pre-drug, seven newcomers, and their senior Carl to the great swamp of Toussaint. While harvesting mutants, train new people.
