The Divine Hunter Chapter 18: Shadow Homecoming

The group of people came to the deepest part of Hades, in front of a tall and majestic stone arch that could accommodate several carriages passing by side by side.

The liquid coral on the roof of the cave sheds glazed rainbow light, illuminating the intricate lightning bolts, paw prints, petals, branches and insects on the arch, as well as all kinds of obscure runes.

I don’t know what kind of material this “Gate to All Realms” is made of. It has a smooth surface and cold, hard chaotic energy lingering around it.

Roy just leaned towards it, and the sleeping ancient blood in his body sensed it and became unusually active. It suspended behind his shoulders, condensing star-shaped spots of light like fireflies.

As he got closer, the spots of light became more and more abundant.

When he reached out and touched the door.

The surrounding rugged rocks, the hanging river, the fluorescent cave plants, the demon hunter and the two shadow elders and Regis standing side by side - were all illuminated by a mysterious yellow light.

Rows of runes connected end to end, dancing like ribbons, were activated by the ancient blood and flew out from the suddenly lit up gates of the worlds.

The ever-changing stars of light and runes of light dance in the air.

The four of them seemed to be in the gorgeous Milky Way.

The scenery is breathtaking.

The arch at the core of the light becomes more solemn and magnificent.

Roy exclaimed in surprise, his bright silver-gray pupils turned to the shadow elder beside him, and then glanced at the right forearm exposed outside the sleeve armor

dTarher…

CieńSiss…

The blood oaths of the two shadow elders turned into bright red tattoos and were firmly engraved on them. As long as they successfully returned home, Roy could use the marks to mobilize the North and South continent at will, a total of 328 high-ranking officials. Level vampire...

Twenty years later, when the time is up, the mark will disappear automatically.

……

"Tracher, Lord Sith, are you ready? Don't you need to pack anything before leaving? Say a few words to your fellow tribesmen?"

The two pale faces were so calm that they were almost indifferent,

"No luggage."

"...what needs to be explained...stays in the bloodline...they will know it themselves."

Roy was not so easily satisfied, so he took the opportunity to ask questions,

"After the two leave, will a new shadow elder be born in the tribe to take over Hades?"

Sith glanced at him, his hoarse voice showing impatience,

"At least a thousand years of precipitation...the essence of life...transformation...among the tribe...in the past hundred years...no elders will be born."

Roy breathed a sigh of relief.

Then from now on, the gates of Hades and all the worlds belong to him!

With the increase of the Gate of All Realms, when the time comes, he will join forces with the other two daughters of ancient bloodline, Ciri and Little Eleni... Group cross-border teleportation is no longer a dream.

"As for that cunning businessman, I actually played a game with him a few years ago and luckily won the game. Maybe we can work together to punish him!"

Roy pursed his lips and asked tentatively,

Tracher's pupils showed a warning look,

"The mysterious businessman...has not settled...this world..."

"The multiverse...is a trading ground..."

"Back home...we ask...our compatriots...to settle accounts with it."

Then by sending the Shadow Elder back to his hometown, he dug a big hole for Mirror Master.

Roy felt happy after hearing this.

I hope this group of powerful vampires can teach that poor man a painful lesson.

"What is your hometown like and what is so special about it?"

"You'll know when you get there...Witcher...don't push yourself too far...there's no next question."

Roy then turned his attention to the barber doctor who was standing not far away, trembling and dazed.

"Regis... let me ask you one last time, are you willing to go home with the two elders? Although my ability is limited and I cannot send the entire tribe back, there is no point in bringing one more 'passenger' with me. Difficulty!"

Two pairs of black and yellow eyes swept towards the humble subordinate.

There was neither force nor request in his eyes, but a hint of playful curiosity.

The corner of Regis' mouth trembled and he was stunned for a moment.

He was already numb. He had experienced more drastic changes in the past two days than in the past fifty years.

But home?

Go back to the place where the oldest and most noble bloodline was born, where the elders were born?

No!

Regis shook his head hastily.

He was born in this world and has long been accustomed to the living environment here. He has also made like-minded friends such as Natanis, Oriana, and Dettlaff.

What's more, Irene, whom he has always regarded as his daughter, has just been reborn through transformation and still needs guidance. He is really unwilling to take huge risks to go to a strange new world.

The most unspeakable thing for him is that the majesty of the two shadow elders has made him feel on pins and needles. When he returns to the vampire's hometown, there will probably be ten or a hundred times the number of shadow elders stepping on his head and giving orders.

His whole body shivered at the thought of this possibility.

Life is worse than death

"That's a shame."

Roy finally sighed, scared Regis, and handed the silver sword and hand crossbow to the two "passengers" who were ready to go, so as not to get lost along the way.

Take a deep breath

He aimed at the empty door to all realms and made a forceful push on the door.

Boom!

The strong wind blew violently, and a prismatic black door opened in the void.

It was only two meters high at first and could only accommodate one person to pass through. However, it quickly became taller and wider when illuminated by the starry runes in mid-air.

In the blink of an eye, it completely overlapped with the huge gate to all realms, cutting off the entire Hades.

There is a glimmer of light in the darkness and chaos inside the door

The dim stars, the blue auroras, and the suffocating vacuum form the majestic and vast starry sky of the universe.

Roy jumped in, the gray cloak behind him surging, and the two shadow elders were connected by bright red chains and jumped in after him.

In the changing starry sky in the Gate of All Realms, a star flickered abnormally.

The next second, the rainbow light in the room instantly exploded into swirling dazzling runes, shrinking back into the gate of the world.

By the time Regis regained his sight, the three of them had disappeared.

Only the cold stone door and the empty, dark Hades remain.

"Finally left, you daring guy." Regis grinned and fell to his knees limply, half cursing and half praying, "Don't get lost!"

……

The setting sun blurs out the gorgeous fire clouds on the horizon.

A lush mountain forest, with heather, beech and birch trees covered with orange gauze.

In the corner of the birch forest, dark hard rock and a row of sharpened wooden piles guard the outside of a simple wooden house.

Wearing a thick coat woven from rough birch bark, fur and thistles, the tall, broad-shouldered woman was wielding an ax half as tall as a person to chop down logs in the center of two wooden piles, with a thick braid on the back of her head. With a flick, the huge, rock-like muscles on his arms and the ferocious scars of Centipede expanded and shrank with the chopping movements.

Kaka

The ax blade flashed with cold light, and the air was chopped into pieces.

The log instantly broke into two pieces and fell into the wooden trough below.

The woman wiped away the hot sweat and glanced at the sky. A hint of fatigue and despair flashed across her scarred cheeks, which were half-skinned off. She gritted her teeth and continued to chop.

Pfft, pfft!

Suddenly, there was a slight sound of heavy objects falling to the ground from behind.

The woman seemed to be extremely frightened, and suddenly turned around with a changed expression.

Three translucent figures came into view. At first, they were as blurry as reflections in the water. Only three human figures could be seen. However, five seconds later.

It quickly became clear to them two **** old men with gray skin covered with bruises, and a younger man with black hair and silver eyes who was better dressed than they had ever seen before, carrying two swords on his back.

"Elder?!"

The woman's eyes widened and she grinned, revealing her yellowed teeth. The fear on her face was instantly replaced by surprise.

She trotted up to the two shadow elders and knelt down.

He bowed to the ground and bowed, then raised his hands, exposing his wrists,

"Woooo... The fog has attacked Dongquan Village. Everyone is dead! They are all dead! I am the only one left!"

"Please, elders, take me away!"

"Patria is willing to offer an offering, offer an offering!"

"Please protect me!"

"Save me from the fog!"

唰

The two shadow elders listened to the familiar accent after thousands of years and breathed in the oxygen in the air that was richer than before.

Looking at each other, the gray and withered face finally showed a long-lost smile

Like sunlight penetrating darkness.

Shua—

Swipe with two index fingers in the air

A **** hole opened on the woman's outstretched wrist, and two lines of blood came out and flew into the elder's slightly open mouth.

They closed their eyes like they were tasting delicious food, chewing the sweetness in their blood and the memories that had been missing for thousands of years.

Roy folded his hands on his chest, quietly observing this strange scene, and turned his eyes.

The badge remained motionless, indicating that the elder had not used any charm spells.

So why did this ugly woman, who was stronger than a man, come to her door and offer her blood piously and humbly?

What’s even more amazing is that, facing the world of demon hunters, the shadow elder who stomps his feet to make the country shake, not only does this strong human woman not have the slightest fear in her eyes,

On the contrary, it is full of enthusiasm and respect, like facing the gods of faith,

What kind of new world is this?

"wstawaj...rise"

"Konsekrujdozaakia's offering has been accepted"

Tracher nodded with satisfaction at her, and wiped his saliva-covered index finger on the woman's wrist. The wound healed and scabbed instantly.

"Zabierzu... takes you back to the nest"

When the woman heard this, she was so excited that she trembled all over, tears came to her eyes, and she kept kowtowing to the elder, with gratitude and joy beyond words.

It seems that I have saved my life from the threat of death.

"Do you feel weird?"

The Sith's black-yellow eyes looked at the witcher. The lame and stuttering Northern Common Tongue before became smoother, and the pain that was suppressed to the bones was no longer in his tone.

He seemed to have taken off the shackles that had been tied to him for so long.

He looked relaxed and a little more angry.

"This is the rule in our hometown."

He waved his hand casually.

The woman got up and rushed back to the cabin, quickly packing her luggage. During the whole process, she only glanced at Roy briefly.

The witcher's invincible charm has completely failed.

"Most humans pay tribute to us vampires...and we keep them safe."

"Human beings still need your protection? What dangers are there?"

Roy's question has just come to light.

Huhu

A biting cold wind howled through the forest.

Suddenly, majestic white fog surged up, blocking the sun in the sky and the surrounding mountains, forests, and wooden houses.

"Stand still, witcher."

Tracher and Sith warned them as if they were facing an enemy.

A strong sense of crisis instantly enveloped Roy's body.

He heard a thud in the mist, like something heavy sinking into the soft soil.

The entire mountain forest and the ground beneath my feet shook. The air in the forest suddenly began to tremble, and panicked beasts howled one after another, full of panic and despair.

The birds in the birch trees flew into the obscuring mist with shrieks and flapping wings.

The witcher saw an unforgettable scene

As if the sea surface was knocked open by the side of a ship, a huge silhouette emerged from the thick fog in the distant sky.

Behemoth Mist Beast?

……

This is a huge beast hidden in the mist, at least thirty meters tall. From a distance, it looks like a prehistoric mammoth shrouded in clouds and mist. Six long legs covered with gray down support a round and huge body. The entire body structure looks like It feels a bit top-heavy and uncoordinated, but its head and torso are covered with countless long tentacle-like whiskers.

Looking carefully, you can see that the back of the long beard is covered with a layer of bristles like steel needles, and the inside is covered with insect mouthparts, which are constantly opening and closing "clicking, clicking".

The giant beast controls its tentacles to penetrate the mist like a spear, and then retracts it lightly.

A beast corpse with its head stabbed through was quietly inserted there.

It's like a carefully skewered kebab.

The loaded long beard was sent into the black hole-like mouth, and the big mouth began to chew slowly.

A large amount of blood leaked out from between the teeth and dispersed into the mist, dyeing the earth red.

……

Behemoth is simply more terrifying than the most unspeakable monster in nightmares!

……

"Son of the ancient bloodline, the universe is so vast, and you are lucky to be born in a peaceful world dominated by humans." Sith's voice rang, and some long-lasting emotions awakened in his hometown, and the excitement was hard to come by. contain.

"In your world, even if natural and man-made disasters continue, most human cubs can spend their childhood safely."

"But our hometown is different. Human beings with weak bodies are born at the bottom of the food chain and must rely on other powerful races to survive."

"Our tribe cannot make the rules of this world."

"These thousands of terrifying monsters that suddenly appear in the mist are the masters of this world."

"Humans, and our vampires, if they want to survive, they must start from a young age, continue to fight, and constantly move to safer gathering points! Struggling to survive in the test of life and death!"

The frightening red light shot out from Sisi Gujing’s unbreakable pupils,

"Our hometown is dangerous and deadly, but it is much more interesting and exciting!"

"It's time for you to leave, Witcher..."

Tracher's voice rang out, and an unusually eye-catching black smoke enveloped the ugly woman from head to toe, suspended in mid-air.

"This is not your battle, Behemoth's saliva can harm our immortal bodies!"

"Let alone the mortal body. ~IndoMTL.com~ At least ten elders must work together to solve it."

"So we have to set off immediately to meet old friends who have been away for many years."

"Bless yourself!"

The Shadow Elder leaped forward and turned into two wisps of black smoke, drifting deep into the mist.

Roy held his breath and looked at the giant beast in the distance.

It seemed to sense something and suddenly turned its head this way. The eyes wrapped in heavy tentacles were like two white suns, radiating a terrible desire to destroy everything and devour everything.

……

So powerful and incredible.

If you can kill it.

At least tens of thousands of experience, right?

With a change of heart, Roy reluctantly took out a rose-cut aqua diamond from his arms. Freya's most precious treasure, the Passion Diamond.

It is about the size of a fist and shines as brightly as the summer sky.

It is shaking violently.

It's time to go back.

If he continues to stay, Freya and the goddess Meriteri will think that he has broken his promise and fled to other worlds to avoid the **** frost, which may cause another trouble.

Anyway, the bloodline mark is the spatial coordinate. You can completely solve the troubles in the demon hunter world and meet these foggy beasts again in the future.

Roy made up his mind and opened the second door to the world (guarding and blessing, twice a day.

A tentacle fell from the sky and rolled over with thunderous force.

唰

The scarlet sword flashed.

The tentacles split into two, falling to the ground and turning into billowing white smoke.

Behemoth's angry roar surged through the fog like a tsunami!

But when it moved its six long legs, it came over with the earth shaking.

The ant-like prey has disappeared without a trace.

……

End of volume.
