The Divine Hunter Chapter 9: The Wild Hunt appears
The wind blows from the ocean to the land.
In front of an exquisite hut on the east side of Little Skellige Island that seems to be woven from morning mist.
The outdoor garden is in full bloom.
Cassir crouched behind a bush of dense blackthorn and quietly looked at the petite figure not far away bathed in the golden morning light.
The little princess of Sintra changed her gorgeous long dress into a flexible blue hunting suit. Her silver-gray ponytail swung behind her head, and she happily chased a man wearing a floral-embellished cotton jacket with red lips and white teeth. little girl.
Xili sometimes rushed forward to hug her waist and scratch the back of her neck, and sometimes hooked her fingers and used magic to lift her into the air...listening to her chirping and giggling.
After a long time, this strange combination of aunt and niece swung side by side on a swing made of ivy. Their four naughty little legs swung through a cluster of purple myrtle. The two figures were coated with a layer of soft golden light, as beautiful and warm as an oil painting.
Kasier’s eyes sparkled as he observed secretly.
After three years of working from dawn to dusk as a groom, servant, and doorman on Little Skellige Island, and with Master Roy's recommendation, he finally gained the trust of the Skellige royal family and Calanthe, and was entrusted with important tasks. Quietly protect the safety of Ciri and Eleni.
The main job is to supervise their play and train them in magic and swordsmanship.
Cassir witnessed Ciri's transformation from a skinny little girl to a graceful and beautiful girl... The mission of the Nilfgaard Empire's intelligence agency, the orders of Emperor Emhyr, and the high hopes of the Dyverin family no longer have anything to do with him. .
He is only willing to guard Ciri so quietly forever, until one day in the future, when the time is right, he will appear in front of her openly, become her knight, and spend the rest of his life for her!
"Oh, isn't it enough for me to play with you?" The girl sitting on the swing sighed at the little girl, "Grandma Calanthe is busy in meetings and can only accompany you at night."
"Roy, Roy..." Eleni blinked her emerald eyes, and pulled a strand of hair in front of Ciri's forehead.
"Don't be naughty! He is having a meeting with Geralt and Yennefer on Thaned Island."
"You asked me where is Thanede Island?"
"Don't go anyway, otherwise your poor niece will be thrown into Arethusa and imprisoned for several years."
Ciri held Eleni on her knees, lifted her fat lotus-like arms like a doll, pressed her forehead to hers affectionately, and said seriously,
"We have to train hard and grow up quickly so that we can help them. Do you understand, my dear aunt?"
"Ah."
A happy smile appeared on Cassirer's lips. The willful and naughty little princess finally became sensible.
The smile on his face suddenly solidified.
The weather changes suddenly.
The sun shyly hid behind the dark clouds, a bone-chilling cold wind blew up, and the temperature dropped by more than ten degrees in an instant, as if going directly from summer to winter, and he shivered all over.
The girl also realized something was wrong and stuffed little Eleni into her coat, leaving only a pair of curious green eyes exposed.
"Didn't Uncle Mossak say it would be sunny today? How come it happened all of a sudden"
Boom!
The loud noise shook the world.
The roar of the storm came from afar, and silver lightning tore through the sky, illuminating the jagged and undulating coastline, making people panic.
Then the patter of rain fell, and a blur of mist floated between the sky and the earth.
The strong wind blew, and the flowers in the garden were uprooted and floated into the distance.
Ciri quickly put on her hood and jumped off the swing, running towards the castle not far away.
As his fingers moved nimbly, a piece of aqua blue magic burst out to form a shield and wrap around the petite body, bouncing away the cold rain.
……
Cassier hung slowly behind, fastening the canvas coat with one hand, wondering whether he should bravely rush forward to protect the little princess from the wind and rain.
A huge shadow suddenly passed over the end of his sight, and an indescribable feeling of suffocation clogged his chest. He stopped warily and looked at the coastline.
"What is that?!"
The wind is getting stronger, the rain is pouring, dark clouds are rolling in the sky, and the waves are raging in the angry sea.
A dazzling lightning connected the dark sky and the turbulent sea, intertwining into a mysterious silver ribbon.
The sound of horse hooves and the chanting of ancient ghosts are accompanied by the roaring thunder.
A few blurry black figures were riding the violent wind and rain. In just a short moment, they covered a distance of several miles and slowly slowed down when they arrived a hundred meters away.
When the girl reacted, the neighing of the horse reached her ears, and the heavy horse clothes reflected the dazzling cold metallic light.
"Zireael!"
The riders on the tall horses faced Xili and shouted loudly.
The tone of voice is ups and downs, like reciting ancient poetry.
The bright red cloaks fluttered behind them. Under the horn helmets and tattered feather crests, their eyes were as hot as flames. Their chins were pointed, their cheekbones were prominent, their faces were sharp and angular, and there was not a single particle in the grinning mouth. Human canine teeth.
What are they, the Wild Hunt? But isn’t the Wild Hunt just skeletons, ghosts, and dead people?
What is in front of me is obviously a body of flesh and blood!
Thinking about her, Xili's eyes also turned.
Immediately, as if possessed, he stared at the knight in the center of the team. He was wearing a dark armor shaped like ribs, with a ring helmet and a terrifying skull mask.
A strange feeling of blood connection came to my heart.
Familiar and friendly.
Just like facing Roy.
He also has part of the same bloodline? !
Huchi
The ancient blood throbbed uncontrollably, and brilliant star spots quickly poured out of the girl's petite body, penetrating the dense rain curtain.
The dazzling light was like stars in the dark night, lighting up the bodies of the three ancient bloodlines.
At the front of the team, the burliest commander pulled the reins of his horse, and a terrifying and wild laugh came from under the skull mask,
"Aha! It seems you like our navigator, yes, he also has the same blood, but not so pure!"
Boom! Lightning split the sky, illuminating a pair of skeleton masks that were as ferocious as evil spirits very close at hand.
Xili trembled all over and finally recovered from her daze, only to hear him read out this set of ancient sayings,
"What are you waiting for?! Zireael, the daughter of the ancient bloodline, the reborn Swift!"
"Come on, join our team, come on, let's run towards the end of the world, the feast of plunder, come on, let's restore the glory of Ain El!"
"Don't resist in vain, you can't escape!"
Dream!
Get away!
She gritted her teeth and pushed forward with both hands. The dense water vapor in the air instantly condensed into crystal cones of ice, piercing the air and instantly hitting the strong armor of the King of the Wild Hunt!
Crackling!
Ice crystals exploded, and a piece of ice shard blocked the riders' sight.
They were uninjured, but the horses underneath them neighed a few times in fright and shook their heads.
Xili took the opportunity to turn around and run away.
Roy, Roy must be found!
She screamed crazily in her heart.
Come on, Ciri, you can do it, Eleni, help me!
The blood of the ancients activates teleportation! Take us to Thanede Island!
Between the two girls, dazzling star spots merged into one, gradually wrapping their bodies running in the mud like a layer of gauze.
Boom!
Lightning pierces the sky!
Horse hooves are like thunder.
Several red knights suddenly rushed out of the team, and the raised silver gauntlets fell heavily, grabbing the back of the girl who was close at hand.
"Bang!"
No one expected it.
A figure suddenly jumped out from the bushes nearby, as fast as a storm.
Charging at the front, the Wild Hunt Knight was caught off guard and was instantly knocked off his horse by the huge force and carried into the wet mud.
Cassir's face was blood red, and he was roaring like a maniac. Under the surge of adrenaline, he actually burst out with the most powerful fighting power in his life. He rode on the waist of the Wild Hunt Knight, and his fists intertwined into afterimages, fiercely Beat that ugly horned helmet.
The impact of the blow on his fist was so severe that his flesh and blood were bruised, and bone stubble broke out of his skin. However, he felt unprecedented excitement and excitement in his heart.
Xili, run away!
I, Kasir Movar Difflin Aip Chirak, will keep you safe.
Even if you risk your life.
The idea just came up.
A silver-gloved hand pressed on his chest.
Frost is everywhere.
An indescribable coldness came over, spreading and freezing his body and soul.
Cassir pushed away the hand, shook his body a few times, and then knelt down on one knee. A stream of pale cold air surged out of his thin coat, and quickly spread between the weeds and the earth under his feet. Layers of crystal clear ice. ~IndoMTL.com~ Like a frozen lake.
He used his last strength to turn his frost-covered face and looked back.
Amidst the shouts and surrounds of the Wild Hunt Knights, the petite figure looked back, a glimmer of light flashing in his emerald green eyes.
She suddenly merged into the bright starlight, completely disappeared into the air, and fled.
I kept my promise.
A smile appeared on the lips of the wide-eyed man among the ice sculptures.
Goodbye, Ciri!
But don't be sad for me.
The cold and weak abyss swallowed up the man's consciousness.
……
"Stubborn Swift, unnecessary resistance will only cause more sacrifices." King Eredin of the Wild Hunt waved his hand.
The pilot of the ring helmet immediately stirred the staff, and a huge spherical door appeared in the sky amid the strong wind.
The horses neighed, the wind howled, and the red knights flew in.
At the same time, the space not far behind them squirmed irregularly, creating layers of ripples.
A dark-as-night ketch was revealed, with the cone-shaped bow of the ship reaching straight into the sky, making it look like a giant swordfish soaring in the abyss.
The blond-haired Avallac'h stood at the bow of the ship with a solemn expression, and the heavily armed red knights and the Wild Hunting Dogs the size of calves, covered with rugged blue ice edges, filled the belly of the ship.
"Yuyan has mastered instant travel, which is really a huge surprise."
The strong wind from high altitude ruffled his blond hair.
The sailboat sailed into the huge space gate.
……
The violent storm suddenly subsided, and the angry sea returned to calm.
A round of scorching sun hangs again in the washed blue sky.
Only outside the garden, the humanoid ice sculpture kneeling on one knee and glaring with anger recounted everything that had happened before.
