Demon Hunter and His Hut

Chapter 20 Pretentious or low-key?

The Witcher and His Cabin ()

Ashe's face was pale, and her body trembled violently.

At this time, Roger and the others finally understood why Ashe reacted so strongly when facing Zelister's invitation at the beginning.

She should have known about the duke's plan long ago, so she refused repeatedly, and even planned to leave directly the next day.

If it wasn't for the fact that there were two demon hunters in the team, even with Dandelion's persuasion, she would have left immediately.

Now it seems that the so-called invitation to Geralt was also for Roger. If the two leave because of the mission, it won't be long before the Duke's guards will appear near the tavern.

Then he took Ashe away with a seemingly reasonable excuse. As for what happened next, it was self-evident.

No woman can refuse me, especially at Brimwood Head!

This is my territory!

The Duke turned up the volume and looked down on everyone with a victorious attitude.

Then your choice, Miss Ashe, my patience is limited, and this will be your last chance!

Go away!

If I can get out of here alive, I will surely spread the word of your ugly deeds to all the surrounding countries!

Count me in too! Dandrian echoed loudly.

Cute little eyes, it's rare that we are so consistent in the same thing!

Hmph! The Duke's face darkened suddenly, Kill them all, and those scaled monsters!

Whoosh whoosh!

Countless arrows shot at the wooden boat where Roger and the others were, and the mermaid also became the target of the attack.

They nimbly avoided the attack in the air, and then plunged into the sea.

At this moment Roger took a step forward, the weapons jumped into his hands, and all the arrows fired at them were missed with a clanging sound.

Roger actually blocked all the attacks by himself.

What to do, think of a way!

Dandelion yelled in panic, Let's run away, stay away from them!!

What are you thinking? Their ships are bigger than ours, and they have more people than us. The sea is so big, where can we escape? Ashe retorted.

If I knew this, you should have promised him just now. At least you can sneak into their boat. If you can seduce...

Shut up, Dandelion!

Don't let me tear your mouth apart!

Hold on, Roger.

Geralt said, I'll find a way to dive into the water and swim over, so...

But at this moment, before Geralt could finish speaking, the sea near the big ship suddenly became cloudy, and several mermaid corpses floated out.

what happened?

That's a trap!

Xien Naz suddenly appeared, These ships have been specially reinforced, and many traps have been set up around the bottom of the ship. They have already prepared it. You are talking about the white-haired man. This is indeed a conspiracy!

A loud cry came from the mermaid's throat, and the soldiers near the big ship were disturbed. At this moment, her voice suddenly became hurried, and then her spirit became listless.

I have to go. Humanity is ready for a war, and I need to inform the other races of what I saw.

She is ready to evacuate.

Soon the soldiers recovered from their trance and began to prepare for the second round of shooting. The Duke stood on a high place surrounded by several strong soldiers for protection.

He nodded to the crowd with a cruel smile.

Do something, Roger.

Dandelion said, Is the golden dragon around here? Maybe we can get him to help.

What time is it, are you still joking here? Ashe said angrily.

What joke?! Dandelion jumped up, The Roger I said is a dragon driver, he can really control dragons, or the legendary golden dragon!

I don't believe you can ask Geralt!

Ashe widened her eyes.

Eyes shifted to the other side.

What Dandelion said is true, but this is the sea. Even if Borch is really near here, when he arrives here, our bodies will be eaten up.

Geralt sighed.

At this time Roger frowned.

Is there really no other way? Dandelion panicked.

It's not completely absent. We can hide for a while, and then let Roger find a way to get closer to those ships. With his strength, he should be able to control them very quickly.

Geralt said again.

Then what are you waiting for?! Dandelion looked excited.

Although this method is good, my strength is far from Roger's. We may not be able to last until he wins. Geralt continued.

That means we will die? Dandelion's smiling face quickly dimmed.

At this time, the second wave of shooting came again, and Roger calmly blocked all the attacks again.

Turning over twice in a row quickly attracted the Duke's attention. There were crowds of people on the bow, and they were obviously planning other means.

Don't worry. Roger said.

I'm just waiting for an opportunity, and besides... He turned his gaze to Geralt, Didn't you tell me to try not to expose my strength to outsiders?

So I have to find a compromise.

What method? Everyone asked.

Roger smiled, and took out the pendant hanging around his neck.

It was a golden horn as thick as a little finger, with a unique shape and intricate patterns carved on it.

Roger plucked up his strength and blew the horn loudly.

puff!

There was no loud sound, and the sound from the horn was even reminiscent of some kind of gas exchange activity.

Dandelion blinked, That's it?

Roger, it's already this time, there's no need to joke anymore.

I'm not kidding.

Roger looked up, and everyone on the deck lifted out a strangely shaped device, but at this moment, the surrounding sea suddenly shook violently.

It felt as if there was a huge monster under the sea, approaching quickly.

At first everyone thought it was an illusion of tension, but soon the vibration became more and more intense, until they saw a huge black shadow quickly occupying the entire field of vision under the water surface.

There is something!

There's something under the water! A soldier shouted.

Sit tight and hold on.

Roger exhorted in a low voice.

The next moment, the waves were raging, and a thick tentacle broke through the water. The length of the tentacle exceeded the hull of the entire ship, and then it slammed down amidst the horrified screams of countless soldiers!

Crackling!

The Duke's big boat was smashed in the middle like paper, but this was not the end, more tentacles appeared, and several big boats around were wrapped together.

The tentacles tightened, and the big ship was shattered. In just a few breaths, there were only broken planks left on the sea.

Roger and the others are in the center of the vortex, but it is strange that a small area around them is extremely quiet. It was as if the turbulent waves around him happened in another space.

Strange... monster!!

What's that? Dandelion yelled as if he was the one being attacked.

Ashe also looked shocked, he looked at Roger, You summoned this thing?!

Roger nodded, I picked the one closest to here.

Even the well-informed Geralt didn't look very good at this moment, and then he seemed to think of something, and looked at Roger who looked calm.

You said... this is a solution that doesn't expose your strength, but what about the one that exposes your strength?

Geralt couldn't hide his curiosity, and everyone looked at Roger after hearing his words.

Roger thought for a while, stretched out his hand and gestured, Hmm...maybe I'll choose to chop it with a sword?

After all, it's easier this way.
