The Divine Hunter Chapter 9: The truth about tree heart

"Get out! Lackeys, enemies of nature!" An angry roar came from the depths of the cave, like the voice of an old woman amplified a thousand times, full of hysteria and madness.

A violent air current surged out with the sound, causing the stalactites on the top of the cave to tremble from side to side, and the water below the cave to ripple in circles.

But this did not deter everyone. They waded through the central water channel and entered the deepest part of the cave.

The light became even dimmer, and the faint light illuminated a bloated giant creature: it emerged from the gray rock wall and the top of the cave. At first glance, it looked like a mountain of flesh with sarcoma, which was very disgusting.

The most eye-catching piece of this meat mountain is located in the center, shaped like a heart, and is still beating.

Its pulsation seemed to have some invisible magic power, and the entire cave was responding to it, with gravel and dust falling down.

At this moment, it was covered by a pile of rough and hard bark, with light yellow whiskers on the bark, as if it was covered with a layer of spiked armor.

The pendants around the necks of the witchers vibrated violently, and the surrounding area was filled with magic. Perhaps this strange-shaped thing was a creation of magic.

"The burl..." Letho said.

"It's obviously the heart of the tree..." Roy corrected, "It's just connected to the roots of the huge banyan tree on the top of the hill." The heart of the tree is also surrounded by thick roots, like a living thing. Squirming slowly.

"Get out!" The old woman's voice sounded again, echoing in the cave. Only then did everyone realize that the guy speaking was the heart covered with tree bark in front of them.

"Get out of my territory immediately, otherwise, you will be in agony!" With an angry roar, the tree roots were suddenly pulled out from the rock wall, hovering in the air like a python, with sharp teeth aimed at the demon hunters.

"Ms. Tree Heart...you have a little misunderstanding." From Roy's field of vision, the surface of Tree Heart was covered with a layer of light green energy, a layer of natural camouflage. He could only see the wild tree on the ground. The big banyan tree has the same explanation, but the true identity of the tree heart cannot be seen. "We are witchers, not the lackeys of anyone you say."

"Lie! Ever since you entered Whispering Hill, I have smelled that stench, which is exactly the same as the smell of those three ugly and vicious bitches. I will never forget it even if I turn into ashes! You also killed my guards !" Shuxin screamed, "If you want to survive, get out of the cave as soon as possible!"

"What if we don't agree?" Seret was a little irritated by her attitude. He pointed the tip of his sword at her and retorted rudely, "Your men, the werewolves and those Andraig are all How dare you threaten or verbally threaten me when you are all dead?"

"You can try it!" Shu Xin was still confident, "Which one is faster is the sword on your back or my cave collapses faster!"

Everyone was shocked.

"Don't be excited, madam, does the smell that makes you uncomfortable come from this thing?" Roy pulled Serrit's arm and threw the dagger in his arms in front of Shu Xin.

The heart of the tree suddenly fell into a rage, controlling the tree roots to whip the weapon with a violent wind, and the tree roots waved out afterimages all over the sky, and the strong wind blew.

There was a continuous "crackling" sound in the cave.

The demon hunters took a step back to avoid being affected.

After a while, the tree heart vented, and a large and deep mark as thick as an arm was carved out of the hard ground.

The demon hunter took a deep breath. How much hatred did she have against Mrs. Lin Zhong?

"Ms. Tree Heart, do you believe us now? If we were those three 'bitches', we would never let you ruin this so-called sacred weapon."

"Then why did you bring their things here? How did you know my whereabouts?" Shu Xin's tone was still full of doubt.

"We did make a deal with the Lady in the Forest, but it's not what you think..." Furius stood up and explained their encounter again, focusing on the boy Karl.

"Three old witches used Karl to threaten us, and we had no choice but to go to Whispering Hill to hunt sacrifices for them, but the debt still has to be settled." Roy explained carefully, "I am in a book I saw a description of you in the book. The book said that you were sealed by three old witches, right? There is no doubt that you and them are absolute mortal enemies, and the enemy of an enemy is a friend... That's why we came to contact you. ”

"You want to cooperate with me to deal with Mrs. Lin Zhong?"

"Yes, at least teach them a lesson." Oakes showed his white teeth and said sternly. He dislikes threats from others the most.

The heart of the tree slowly swayed its roots and muttered,

"We'll discuss cooperation later. Witcher, what book did you mention just now refer to? Where did you find it?" Shu Xin's voice became strange.

"The All-Knowing She," said Roy, "we found it in the home of a disabled man in Willen Marsh."

"Do you believe the records in the book?" Shu Xin sighed, "Let me point out a mistake for you. Those three vicious women teamed up to destroy my body, but they could not seal my body. Soul. I actively chose to attach myself to this sacred tree. In the entire Willen, it is the only existence that can bear my soul." The heart of the tree paused, "It's a pity that from then on, I can no longer escape from the banyan tree. ."

The incarnation of nature that saved her soul has now become her prisoner.

Although Shu Xin could not express her expression, her whole body was filled with a feeling of sadness and helplessness.

A few people listened and slowly took back the silver sword.

"What else is mentioned in that book?"

"The book also mentions your identity - the mother and creator of Lady in the Forest, the oldest existence in Willen - the Fairy Mother. Because you lost your mind and wanted to bloodbath the entire Willen, they teamed up to kill you. You."

After the demon hunter finished speaking, Tree Heart suddenly laughed, and her laughter echoed throughout the cave, but there was no joy in the laughter, only sarcasm.

"If I were their mother and created such a **** with an ugly appearance and an evil heart, I would have killed myself under the big banyan tree long ago." Shu Xin's tone was extremely mean, containing deep hatred, " How dare they put gold on their faces? Stop me, a guardian of nature, from destroying Willen? What a touching and glorious deed!"

Shu Xin roared, "They deserve it?! Does this old son of a **** deserve it?"

The witchers all shook their heads.

Shu Xin continued,

"Do you know about that Nanny Po? She is one of the three sisters who likes to cut off human ears and use magic to make her eyes and ears; the Weaver Po likes to weave human hair into thin gauze clothes to cover her eyes. She lives in her bloated ** with all the pleats; a cook who often cooks broth and invites her sisters to dine with her, and occasionally other messy evil creatures join in."

This Roy knew that among the evil creatures was the infamous Wild Hunt.

"What do you think-" Shu Xin slowed down his tone and said word by word, "What kind of goods are those three things?"

"So, Ms. Tree Heart, you are not the fairy mother who created the Lady in the Forest, and the three sisters are not the gods who bless the people of Willen as they appear to be?"

"It's good that you know." Shu Xin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm sorry, I haven't had such a fun chat with someone for a long time. I'm a little lost."

"We can understand..." Leisuo nodded. If they had been trapped in a big tree for hundreds of years, they would have gone crazy. "So who are you? Are you willing to help us deal with the old witch?"

"Everyone, if you are willing to listen patiently to the nonsense of a 'monster'~IndoMTL.com~, then I am also willing to share with you some truth about Willen." Shu Xin paused, and the five people raised their heads. ears,

"I am a member of the ancient Druid Circle, guarding the forests and swamps of Velen, maintaining the natural and ecological balance. You can call me Kungulan. And the old witch, the three sisters, or The ladies in the forest, they are alien monsters that descended on Velen during the first celestial convergence. They can draw magic power from the land and control the fate of nearby creatures."

"They coveted the land of Velen, so they joined forces to destroy my body. And sealed my soul into this banyan tree. The nature I once served protected me, so that I will no longer be affected by the old age. Witches are plotting."

“Because of the death of the guardian, Mother Nature has been in anger for a long time. She created this whispering hill to liberate the wildness in the animal body and vent her anger wantonly. At the same time, it also prevented the minions of the three sisters from approaching me and hurting me. !"

"Now, Demon Hunter, since we have all suffered the vicious harm from the Lady in the Forest, and some of you are willing to cooperate, then please agree to a request."

"What request..."

"Free me from this banyan-tree heart in which I dwell."
