The Divine Hunter Chapter 9: Maribo

The solemn Temple of Meriteri.

The demon hunter Roy stood respectfully in front of the statue of the trinity of goddesses shining with sacred golden light.

A majestic and majestic voice echoed in my mind.

"Son of the ancient bloodline, I am very satisfied that you have abided by your agreement and brought a group of vibrant guardians to the temple."

"But your trip to Maribo is dangerous and unpredictable. To prevent you from dying prematurely before solving the world's crisis, Freya and I decided to make an exception and give you some help as much as we can."

Suddenly, an aqua-blue diamond with rosette facets flew out from the statue of the goddess Melitelli. It was the size of a fist, and its shining light was as dazzling as the summer sky.

Roy took it in his palm and held it tightly.

The blessed jade of passion...

Material: Hao Shi, divine power.

Enchanting

Comeback: This gem, blessed by the goddesses Freya and Meliteri, will protect you from a fatal injury.

You can also actively stimulate it to release a divine healing to restore your body and soul to their best condition.

"It's on loan to you temporarily."

"I hope you never need it."

……

"How about it, kid? The matter is settled satisfactorily?" The bald man crossed his chest and leaned against the pillar of the stone pavilion in the corner of the garden.

A pair of eyes shot over.

"Well, Grim went to Vizima, and the goddess sent a gift... Where are the children?" Roy looked at everyone present with bright eyes,

Four people from the Wolf Faction.

The three members of the Cat Faction, Keyan, came from Nuocheng and stood side by side with Aiden and Cat Vulture.

The four members of the Snake Faction.

And Cohen of the Griffin Faction.

Warlock Coral, Kalkistan.

14 people in total.

"Those brats were so stubborn that they almost forced me to use the Yaksi Seal..." Maojiu shook his head in relief, and then helplessly squeezed his fists until they clicked, "Thanks to us Xiaozhi. Emotions and emotions are driven by reason, and they are finally honest."

"Anyway, Nannick is here to help take care of the temple, so there is no need to worry." Leisuo added, touching his shiny bald head.

"It's time to go, everyone!"

Coral walked over and took Roy's arm affectionately.

"Don't let sister Triss be lonely for too long."

Boom!

A square space door opened in the temple garden.

Fourteen figures got in one after another.

……

Maribo.

Standing next to the prince's palace, is the top floor of a mage tower with red tiles and white walls.

Book shelves and desks are neatly arranged against the walls.

The quiet room suddenly became violently windy, and a thick tome was opened page by page.

Triss's red hair brushed her face like seaweed.

"Good afternoon, beautiful lady." Lambert, who was the first to jump out of the portal, stepped forward with a playful smile, knelt down on one knee towards her, and wanted to kiss her hand.

However, Triss smiled, held up the hem of her skirt with her fingertips, and gave a playful curtsy to the people who suddenly arrived.

"Come on, bastard, don't harass a beautiful woman when you see her. If you want to get into heat, go to the cow pen to do it!" Aiden slapped Lambert **** the back of the head, making him turn his eyes white.

"Sister Triss, you have worked hard during this time."

Coral took a step forward, skillfully holding her slender waist with his right hand, holding her pointed chin with his left hand, looking at her pretty cheeks with blue eyes,

“I’ve lost a lot of weight, I have such an enviable figure.”

"No, my sister is getting more and more beautiful!" Triss shook her head, her reddish-brown hair swaying lightly on her shoulders, her cornflower-colored eyes looking at the demon hunters, for He glanced deeply at the demon hunter with silver-gray pupils,

With a hint of joy,

"You are here at the right time. I have made new discoveries about the four great masters!"

"Tell me carefully."

"Come here!"

She walked to the desk and hooked her little finger. On the table, the steaming kettle, tea cups, and canned tea leaves were flying in the air in a dizzying manner.

Quick but not messy.

In the blink of an eye, every attendee received a cup of steaming, fragrant jasmine tea.

Triss smiled and made a please gesture to them.

At the same time, a map of Maribo City was automatically spread out on the desktop.

The entire city's buildings with mixed columns, spacious and bright streets, hundreds of narrow alleys, and city gates on the north and south sides...are reduced thousands of times and are shown here, including the abandoned The huge crack in the old city that was once created by the saliva demon.

Triss’s crystal-clear fingers circled around the entire map,

"For the past year, I have been detecting spell fluctuations throughout the city every day."

Roy couldn't help but feel moved and guilty after hearing this.

Before the Green Grass Trial, I only asked the other party once.

She immediately put down all the work she was doing and came to the former mage tower in Maribo, risking huge risks to search for the footprints of the four great masters.

"You are putting yourself at risk!" Coral frowned reproachfully.

"Don't worry, all actions are carried out with the help of this mage tower. Its special tower structure, coupled with the invisible detection technique taught by Tisaya... the magic fluctuations emitted are almost non-existent and impossible to be detected. ."

A look of fear appeared on Triss's face, and she said with some hatred, "What's more, I haven't left the Mage Tower for more than a year, and I have never set foot on the ground of Maribo City. After all, those four hateful people This guy brainwashed me and recognized me!"

She is still haunted by the lost memory.

The witchers couldn't help but cast grateful glances at her.

The sorceress stayed in this boring mage tower for a year for a promise.

"Don't look at me with such disgusting eyes, I'm just returning a favor." Triss took a deep breath and nodded, "Well, repay Roy for saving his life."

"Is this detection method reliable?" Vesemir asked.

"The error rate is less than one percent." Triss waved her fingers in the air, and a calm lake as smooth as a mirror appeared in front of everyone. "The chaotic energy of the entire city was originally in a state of balance, just like the current lake surface. . Ordinary people are like water plants at the bottom of a lake, unable to stir up any waves."

"But as long as any sorcerer, magic apprentice, or demon hunter who has mastered the seal enters these spaces, the balance will be broken."

"You only need to make a single casting action, whether it is a weak magic trick or a simple seal."

"Masters, I don't mean to belittle you in any way. The witcher's seal can also be used to innovate, no less than the magic."

The sorceress suddenly explained nervously and apologetically.

"We're not that sensitive, let's keep talking." Roy smiled gently at her.

“Once the chaotic energy accumulated in the human body intersects with the energy in the environment, a ripple or water wave will be created, and my mage tower can capture it.”

She wiggled her middle finger, and the strong wind blew by, making the lake surface sparkle like a pleated silk dress.

"For almost a year, the entire ancient well of Maribo remained quiet. It was completely ordinary, a city dominated by mortals, royal power, religion, and trade. I thought I was the only one who lived there as a spellcaster, and the others , were all scared away by the magic tax promulgated by the prince."

"Until a month ago..."

"Exceptionally strong magic fluctuations occurred in these two places."

Her white fingertips, as sharp as bamboo shoots, clicked twice on the map.

"Blue Whale Tavern?"

"Cracks in the Old Town?"

The demon hunters couldn't help but hold their breath.

"For safety reasons, I did not leave the tower." Triss made a waving gesture in mid-air with the five fingers of her left hand.

A jet-black magical aura flew into the window and landed on the back of the sorceress’ hand. It turned out to be a magical crow.

It tilted its head and used its long beak to clean the stains on its feathers. It whispered softly, and its brown-black eyes scanned the people present, passing through the light of humanity.

"But my pet has found out everything."

Triss’s words paused, and a fiery light suddenly bloomed in her cornflower blue eyes,

"Four guys suspected of being witchers appeared in the sun openly and openly!"

"A tall and burly man with a stern face and a bear head amulet on his chest."

Every time she spoke, the eyelids of the demon hunters twitched.

"A man with a thin body, a long and narrow face, eyes like poisonous snakes, wearing a viper pendant."

"A man with black hair and brown eyes, an average appearance and a build, wearing a wolf head pendant,"

"The last one has the most eye-catching physical features, with a goshawk totem tattooed on his side and a griffon pendant around his neck!"

“These four people drank spirits all day and night in the Blue Whale Tavern. Their unique appearance and bold actions were extremely eye-catching to the bartenders, regulars, the women accompanying them, and even citizens passing by the pub... Testify!"

"Absolutely impossible!" Cohen screamed, his three-colored pupils shrinking into prismatic shapes.

Everyone couldn’t help but nodded.

This is completely contrary to the information they have obtained before.

"This is not in line with common sense." Roy sipped the hot tea, "Anahad, Elan, and Aiga have been hiding for hundreds of years. They have disappeared for such a long time. There is no reason why they would break the iron laws of the past and suddenly appear. , indulge in enjoyment without any defense."

The demon hunters looked at each other and looked at each other.

"Everyone, put yourself in his shoes," Kalkstein, who had been silently listening, interjected, "According to Roy, they abandoned their compatriots in the academy and joined the organization of the creator Arzu, and they have been hiding from the world, like Hiding in the dark 'underground' like a mouse, risking your life to get involved in war after war, what you have a huge agenda for."

"If it were you, you would be so indulgent before the work is done, and you wouldn't be afraid of falling short?"

Ox touched his hairband and pondered.

"You mean, their goal for so many years is close to success, it's a certainty, so"

"In order to celebrate in advance, drink to cheer up?" Seret guessed.

"We're in big trouble!" Roy frowned, and Mayena, the sin-burning red light, appeared in front of his eyes again.

Is it possible that the four great masters and Arzu have already hatched some mature method to transform the world?

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but tremble all over.

……

"The second fluctuation is near the gully that stretches for hundreds of meters in the old city." Triss said, "Under this crack there is a sewer built in the Elf Era, with dozens of entrances scattered around."

"I suspect that the four great masters, as well as Idalan and Arzu, have been hiding in there all this time!" She opened another drawing, which was like a spider web maze with vertical and horizontal pipes.

The finger points to entrance No. 13.

"So I collected the sewer blueprints of the old city in advance."

……

"Can't delay any longer, let's start immediately!" Roy took a deep breath, sat up on the chair, straightened the sword belt behind his back, glanced at everyone again, and spoke in a serious tone,

"Everyone, be mentally prepared! This operation is different from the past. It is very likely that you will encounter the most dangerous and difficult battle since the establishment of the Brotherhood!"

"And it's not just a battle. The person we are fighting is the founder of the school, the predecessor and idol of countless compatriots!"

"Are you sure you can do it?"

There was an eerie silence.

The face of the Griffin sect demon hunter appeared tangled and nervous.

Elan among the four great masters.

Teacher Kelda has followed the example all his life, and Geron Moru paid his life just to see him.

If they were facing each other, how should they treat him?

Leso's cheek stiffened into a poker.

Ivar Evil Eye.

The founder who established lofty ideals for the Snake Sect and the pioneer who resisted the Wild Hunt.

The once humorous and interesting words still echoed in my ears, and those eyes that were burning like molten silver were especially in front of me.

That is the teacher who has guided me.

Vesemir's cloudy eyes shone with the light of memory.

Aiga.

Grand master of the Wolf Faction.

When he was still an apprentice, he was already the most powerful first-generation wolf sect in the school.

Swordsmanship, seals, and combat experience are among the best among the schools.

The blueprint of the Wolf Faction came from his handwriting.

……

As for Anahad.

There were no members of the Bear School present.

The only impression everyone has of the founder of the Bear School is from the words of his descendants.

He almost killed Roy.

This is a blood debt that needs to be paid with blood.

It’s just that the three people from the Cat Faction are very interested in him.

Cats send potions to enhance emotions and produce madmen.

The Bears destroy emotions and humanity and create cold-blooded monsters.

What kind of existence is he?

……

"Haha, boy, you are so young that you dare to point fingers at a group of our seniors?" Lambert grinned, broke the silence, stood up and hugged his right shoulder, "Aren't they the four great masters? In the legend What about Arzu, the founder of?”

"A bunch of outdated antiques, half of their feet in the ground, should have been eliminated by this era long ago!"

"As long as you dare to fight with us? Show them how powerful you are!"

Lambert gritted his teeth and said, "Chop them into pieces and flush them into the sewer to feed the rats!"

"We are fully prepared." Lei Suo touched the dragon scale armor at the heart of his chest.

The demon hunters all wore the armor of the school, which was flexible, light, yet tough.

For more than a year in Kaer Morhen, Todalorqu, his daughter, and Vesemir inlaid dragon scales on all armors. The defense reached the extreme, and ordinary sharp weapons could not even be left on it. A trace of mark.

The twin swords of the school carried by everyone have also undergone a shallow keel transformation, becoming as sharp as iron.

And under a pair of silent cloaks, the potion belt around his waist was covered with a circle of potion bottles that shone with mysterious luster.

Mana recovery potion, life recovery potion, five bottles per person.

The most common, most frequently used potions of Swallow, Thunder, and Patui are naturally indispensable... They have all been transformed from the specialty herbs of Tianji Province, and their effectiveness has generally been increased by 20%.

In addition, every demon hunter has a dark and inconspicuous potion bottle, which is faintly flashing with the color of blood.

This is the result of in-depth research and development of the corpse of the high-level vampire Grufeld by Leisuo and Kalkestan. It is a brand-new decoction for high-level vampires.

The toxicity and effect are extremely abnormal. After drinking it, the demon hunters will have terrifying recovery power in a short time that is comparable to high-inhalation.

Except for potions.

Everyone has ten of the commonly used alchemy bombs such as anti-magic metal bombs and Dragon Dream.

The Brotherhood even spent huge sums of money to let the alchemist master refine a secret bomb that can seriously injure and inhale.

Finally, everyone has a teleportation crystal that can be activated immediately in case of emergency.

A Forgotten Acorn that is almost the flesh and bones of the living dead (the first three, Eskar and Roy used one each, and there is still one left

And the blessed Jade of Passion that I just got recently.

……

Compared to a demon hunter armed to the teeth.

The sorceress Coral's dress is much more normal. Like a beauty dressed up for a dinner party, she is wearing a customary lace black dress, an exquisite lady's hat, pearl earrings, an obsidian amulet on her chest, and enchanted rings on her slender fingers, all sparkling with magical light.

She becomes almost a humanoid magic box.

Triss is no less generous. Her graceful body is covered with magic accessories.

And Kalkstein beside them.

Still wearing the greasy robe, stubbled beard, and sharp-tongued monkey cheeks~IndoMTL.com~ He looks sloppy and has not woken up. He is shivering in the morning breeze that passes through the garden. He keeps rubbing his hands. He looks more obscene. How obscene.

He smiled from time to time, and a strange green light flashed in his eyes the size of sesame seeds.

"Arzu, one of the most famous mages in human history, is more powerful and more legendary than Vilgefortz, who has long since turned into cosmic dust. Although most of it is notoriety."

"He represents endless arcane magical knowledge! Get rid of him and his disciple Idalan, and the demon hunter brothers will harvest magical materials for the next hundred years!"

"That's right..." Oakes smiled with his white teeth exposed, walked over and hugged Roy's other shoulder, his eyes became complicated, "This time, we not only want Anahad to kowtow to you and apologize. We need to thoroughly understand what tricks they have been working on for more than a hundred years!"

"Ask Ivar Evil Eye face to face why he abandoned us!" Leitho's amber pupils gleamed.

"I also want to ask Ellan." Cohen's expression changed and he said softly.

"I want to know Edgar's attitude towards Kaer Morhen...Does he still stick to his principles?" Vesemir exchanged glances with the three Wolf Faction disciples.

"My wish is very simple. I want to see the cold-blooded Anahad's bear-style swordsmanship." Cat Vulture, Aiden, and Kyaan were stroking their steel swords as thin as cicada wings, with high fighting spirit.

"The situation is good, but don't underestimate the enemy. Remember, life is the first priority!" Seret emphasized.

"They possess the dangerous and unpredictable light of purification," Roy added. "No matter who is illuminated by that red light, leave immediately and teleport away!"

Many of the demon hunters are burdened with the sins of the past.

"I don't want to see any accidents happen to any of you!"

“No one is missing!”
