The emerald green eyes of the female doctor regained their clarity and calmness, and she took a deep breath,

"Your Excellency Oakes." She pursed her red lips.

"To clarify, my name is actually not Oaks," Roy interrupted her, and turned his head to smile apologetically at Eunig, who was covering her mouth with her eyes wide open, "My name is Roy, a snake witcher. I know Your idea - let me forget everything before, as if I have never met you, right?"

"But please listen to me, people who are bound by fate will eventually meet. Even if you miss it today, tomorrow is destined to come. If you choose to escape now, it will only be more embarrassing to meet in the future."

Woman clenched white towel in hands.

"Besides, Geralt is in a dire situation now... He has become a prisoner in Mayenne Prison, and his life is in danger at any time..." Roy sighed, his expression became serious, "You don't want to see him?"

Demon hunter, prisoner?

Vesenna recalled what a patient had mentioned. A merchant from Valivia kidnapped Mayenna's honorary ambassador Anz, and a white-haired witcher was his accomplice, but she didn't take it seriously at the time.

At this time, the sound of breathing was so heavy that it could be clearly heard.

Roy smiled.

No mother would leave her child alone.

"You often hang out in Mayena, and you must have heard the rumors about Yurga, but there is something strange about this matter. They didn't kidnap Master Ainz. They are completely innocent. Can you spare some time to listen to my explanation?"

Vesenna glanced outside the tent, "I still have dozens of patients waiting."

"I have observed that they are all minor injuries and illnesses, and they can all afford to wait, but Geralt may not be sure, the magistrate will torture them at any time."

……

The three Eugenies reluctantly left the tent to appease the refugees.

And Roy explained the ins and outs to the female doctor.

He showed the mutated wolf carcass and several unusually lush plants to the druid.

"I noticed that the energy fluctuations on your body are very violent. Sir Roy is the source of the law?"

How does a witcher fetch objects from the void?

"A small trick is nothing to worry about. You should focus on the present... this wolf..."

Vesenna's slender fingers stroked the bloody wolf corpse, inspecting its teeth, dilated pupils, claws, quadrupeds, reproductive organs... the expression became more serious,

"It received some kind of strong stimulation, abnormal development of bones, muscles, minions..."

"I think it's the red light," Roy said. "They must have been illuminated by the red light."

"I can't rule out this possibility. After all, the residual energy on it is too eye-catching, but it's different from the ubiquitous chaotic energy..." Druid said, putting the soil extracted from the dense forest in front of his nose and sniffing lightly, and then Put a few oleanders, roses, and azaleas on the forehead, activate the "breathing of all things", and close your eyes to listen.

Roy observed quietly.

In the narrow and bright tent, a pale green light poured out from the druid's tall body under the light robe, and slowly merged into the oleander bush.

The breeze brushed her red hair by her ear.

Her cheeks were enveloped in a layer of natural and fresh light, flickering on and off.

There is a close connection between man and plant, an indescribable mysterious state.

The corner of Vesenna's mouth couldn't help showing a smile, she felt the emotions of the plants,

"Demon hunter, you are right..." After 5 minutes, she interrupted the link and carefully placed the oleander on the ground under her feet.

It grew in this way, and the months of growth were condensed into a few seconds. The swaying figure of the oleander spread pink and green along an iron support.

"It was nourished by that piece of red light and absorbed a lot of vitality...so it is so strong, including this wolf, which was once 'blessed', wilder and stronger, so it dared to attack passers-by during the day."

Roy took another close look at the phlox and determined that it was just a plant.

Talk to plants?Druids are really extraordinary!

He asked nervously,

"Did this, Mr. Oleander reveal any other information? About Ambassador Ainz."

"Death by the red light!" Vesenna's face showed a hint of relief, "Geralt and the Livia businessman were indeed wronged by the magistrate!"

Roy let out a long sigh of relief,

"But why do animals and plants benefit from red light, but humans are burned to ashes instead? What is the principle?"

"Think about it carefully, where does the vitality of strengthening animals and plants come from?"

"You mean..." Roy's pupils shrank into a prismatic shape, "Ainz was made into...'fertilizer' by the red light? But he is only one person, nourishing that forest and a group of animals, isn't it right? wait."

Can one person's vitality strengthen a forest and a pack of wild wolves?

The demon hunter was a little uneasy. This kind of spell that benefits animals and plants but harms humans seems to belong to some kind of "druid magic".

Vesenna shook her head lightly, her complexion becoming complicated, "More than one... Oleander, Rose, and Azalea told me that before Ainz, there were twelve more people who came to the Red Light Forest."

Roy's heart shook.

"Whether it was voluntary or forced, it is difficult to determine, because the ability of plants to convey information is extremely limited, but Ainz obviously strayed into the woods... and was completely burned to ashes, leaving no trace. Their vitality was red Light blends into the forest area and feeds back to the earth.”

"This is absolutely not a natural phenomenon!" Vesenna's tone exuded a trace of coldness, "It is too simple and rude, and it lacks the crucial process of fungi and bacteria fermenting and decomposing the body! It does not conform to the laws of nature, and it cannot last!"

Roy wiped his cold sweat.

How to listen to what she said.

If we follow the laws of nature and decompose with fungi and bacteria, should human beings be made into fertilizer?

"Whoever dares to act in violation of the laws of nature, I and my colleagues in the Druid Ring will not spare them!" Vesenna stretched her slender left hand, and spread her palm in mid-air, and immediately a black wild pigeon flew from outside the tent. Fly in and fall into her palm.

She held up the well-behaved pigeon, whispered a few words, and then the pigeon spread its wings and flew to the western sky again.

"Okay, my friend will scout the entire suburb of Mayenne later, looking for more red light trails."

Roy nodded, and the druid was really extraordinary when he made a move. He finally asked a question.

"Then how did Yurga, Profe, and Mato escape from the red light?"

"I can't explain this, I can only say my guess, the red light is chasing a certain quality... some people have it, and some people don't."

"And animals and plants are not advanced enough, understand?"

Traits.

At this moment, Roy thought of Yurga, the old cripple, and Mato's description of Ainz.

Sinful.

And Mato himself is tormented by his past mistakes.

Red light, is the trait of chasing a sin?

Is it etched in my mind, a dirty memory?

Then the instigator of the red light.

Is it some powerful and righteous existence?

Roy took a deep breath, it's useless to pay attention to these now,

"Ms. Vesenna, what are you thinking now? Come with me to persuade the sheriff to release Geralt?"

Roy exaggeratedly said,

"If you are unwilling to help, they may die in prison."

The woman was silent for a long time, her face was cloudy and uncertain.

Roy could see her extremely entangled mood - she hadn't seen her relatives for seven or eighty years, and suddenly heard that her relatives were by her side and were in danger.

It must be extremely apprehensive.

Maybe she has other worries on her mind.

She hesitated for a long time, sighed dejectedly, the worry on her face disappeared, her voice became firm, firm,

"Come on, see the sheriff."

A red cloak with a hood covered most of her body and head.

"Why don't you go and see the woods first, and I'll take you there?"

"No need, they have told me everything."

The druid leaned over and got out of the tent, and there was an uproar of people, and the refugees gave him their love.

"Good morning, Doctor! Where are you going?"

"Doctor, are you hungry? Do you want to try my freshly boiled potatoes?" The old cripple approached her fawningly, and handed her a wrinkled and charred potato.

"Thank you for your kindness, but please give me time now, I have to deal with a life-threatening problem! You all know that when someone needs help, I will rush to it, this is my quirk!"

The soft words of the female doctor contained the power to comfort people's hearts, and the patients quickly calmed down and became the only considerate ones before.

"Go ahead, it's important to save people!"

"We are waiting for you!"

Roy passed the crowd and followed closely.

"Wait, let me call a witness!"

……

Chapter 18 Red Flame

Mayenne.

Chengbei Prison.

In the office on the second floor, the dim oil lamp illuminated a man with a bald head and thick beard like boar's mane.

The tall body of Sheriff Lite leaned against the iron window, looking at the sparse pedestrians on the street below. In just 5 minutes, he saw several townspeople turn around and spit in the direction of the refugee camp outside the city.

Disgust and disgust are palpable.

He could understand the point of view of most of the townspeople—the refugee camp was like a tumor growing on Mayena's emaciated body.

Snatching the nutrients that are inherently deficient makes the health condition worse every day.

Especially after the disappearance of Ambassador Ainz some time ago, the lack of food, to be precise, the lack of cheap food has become more and more serious.

His Majesty Foltest of Vizima issued a large amount of pensions after the war, but he was powerless.

Mayena's public treasury funds are about to bottom out, and the mayor is anxious like ants on a hot pot every day.

Anger has nowhere to vent.

Lite is always worried that he will be fired by the mayor tomorrow.

How can I feed my family without a job?

Fortunately, the "culprit" was found...

Lite punched the asphalt table with his callused palm!

The day after tomorrow, tie the businessman and the witcher to the street and hang them to appease the mayor's anger.

Let the people know who stole their food!

But it's like drinking poison to quench thirst.

Without money, Mayenne would be doomed sooner or later.

……

"Da da!"

The sound of heavy footsteps and metal banging came from the corridor.

A heavily armed young soldier knocked on the office door.

"Sir, someone wants to see you!"

"During working hours, I don't see anyone except the missing honorary ambassador!"

"The doctor at the refugee camp brought Ainz's servant Mato," insisted the soldier, who had been treated by a female doctor to save one knee, "and she claimed to have new clues about the disappearance of Ambassador Ainz. "

"The whereabouts of Ainz?" The sheriff rubbed the bald top of his head, the flesh on his face trembled, revealing a hint of embarrassment.

Druids are difficult to be restrained by law, and if they commit a crime and hide in the vast forest, no one can catch them.
