The Journey of the Demon Hunter

A sweaty knight lifted the visor behind his face, panting heavily. "Why do we have to transport such heavy things? What is in the truck?"

"Sir Chestnut, you'll know when the time comes. Now, as soon as possible, you must get to the destination before the moon rises to the center of the sky." Kerm held up the torch, ignored the embarrassed knight in front of him, and continued to urge. Soldiers behind. "Hurry up, hurry up! Your Majesty Ladovide has an order. Everyone will get 20 crowns for completing today's task! Now, everyone puts out the fire extinguisher!"

Following the knight's order, the flame snake suddenly disappeared, leaving only the heavy shadows in the mountain road.

But Kemu didn't know that, on the top of the cliff, two sentries lying on the edge were opening their eyes wide, trying to see the situation clearly below. They are embroidered with white lily badges on their shoulders.

"This is the Flame Rose? It's Ladovide's troops."

"Why are they here? Instead of staying in the city for a celebration party?"

"I don't know, how would I know, only Ladovide can understand." The front spy put away his monocular clairvoyance. "Quickly, go back and inform Siegfried. They did not leave Lomugne, but went around behind Lomugne."

The spy behind immediately took off the bush camouflage covering him, ran to the back, followed a rope tied to the rock on the cliff, and slid down.

It didn't take long for the news to be placed in Siegfried's camp.

"Behind Lomugne?"

"Yes, sir, there are a lot of them, and they should come out in full force."

Siegfried propped his hands on the table, and carefully checked the map with the help of the brazier in the camp. "What are they going to do... Have you notified the demon hunter Zelin?"

"Already notified, sir."

The knight standing behind quickly replied. "When the Knights of the Flame Rose left the city, the messenger went to inform the demon hunter Zelin."

"Send another messenger to tell him that Flame Rose did not advance as expected, but went around the hillside on the side of Lomune." Siegfried hesitated for a second, then raised his hand. "Wait, bring my horse over, and I will meet him in person."

"Your Excellency, if you are gone, who will command us?"

"Sir Hopkin, my adjutant, he will be in charge of temporary command." Siegfried's eyes swept across the commanders of the knights standing in front of him. "You must obey his orders while I am away."

"Your Excellency, please forgive me. Why don't you stay when it is so important, but go to inform a demon hunter in person? How important is he, can he match the safety of the White Lily Knights?"

"If you personally experienced what happened in Vizima in the past year, you wouldn't think so." Siegfried shook his head. "Stay at the camp, stay here, no matter what happens, wait for my next order, and never leave without permission."

The first thousand nine hundred and thirty-one chapter ring warning

"Knights of the Flame Rose, went to the back mountain."

"Yes, after you and Roche entered the city, I arranged a secret post near Lomugne to prevent anyone from attacking the city. In the past few days, they finally brought me news that it was not an attack by a demon bird with a human face. They said that there were a few trucks in the Knights of the Flame Rose, but the sky was too dark and my spy could not see what was in the car. I was worried that Ladooved might do something. Some...we don’t want to see it. What happened."

Siegfried held the long sword around his waist and walked into the high tower next to the circular arena together with Zelin. In the brazier outside the arena in the distance, bonfires were lit one after another, and the warlocks gathered in twos and threes, sharing with each other and discussing the next step. Representatives of organizations such as the Alchemist Association approached Kaduin, hoping to have a place in the Warlock Council. Vendors who have not yet left took out the goods they received in the van, and then marked them with a price that was twice as high as before.

"But it stands to reason that we cannot ask Radovide to explain why he mobilized troops. Lomugne is a neutral place. According to the treaty just signed, it does not belong to any kingdom. Every king has the right to command troops around the city. As long as their army does not attack Lomugne."

Xi'er looked at this familiar and unfamiliar tower. It seemed that in an instant, this place became a behind-the-scenes organization that was incomparable to a warlock cult. The brazier was pulsating with flames, knights, warlocks, magic hunters, from various countries, and many people she knew or did not know gathered together to discuss things that most people outside did not know.

"But when Radovide attacked Lomugne, everything was too late." Zelin looked at Siegfried. "Can you point out on the map where they are heading?"

"Yes." Siegfried looked at the map with a serious face. He stretched out his hand and pressed it on the hillside east of Lomune. "After they left the city, they walked west along the mountain road, then put out the fire extinguisher after entering the mountainside, and suddenly turned to the south. To the south is Lake Lomune, which the elves call Lok Muyny Lake."

"I don't think they will be interested in fishing," Zelin said. "We have to figure out what order Ladoovide gave to the Knights of the Flame Rose. Siegfried, prepare your troops. If Ladoovide wants to do anything, it must be tonight. You better choose Send out some soldiers so that they can prepare for battle while others are sleeping."

"No problem." Siegfried nodded. "If you find any information, tell me immediately."

"I will." Zelin looked at the female warlock on the side again. "Xier, I remember, there are some warlocks in the city of Romune that can fight now?"

"Yes, it just so happens that many of the warlocks left in the city know how to fight. Learning the lessons from the past on Sinide Island, I discussed with Kaduin and prepared to train a warlock regiment that specializes in combat and is responsible for garrisoning. The city of Lomune."

What Xier didn't know was that this was not an accident, but the effect Zelin and Tisaya had always wanted to achieve. Once there is trouble in the city, when most of the people inside can fight the attackers with magic, when an accident happens, only one person needs to stand up-for example, a prestigious mage like Kaduin-these The caster can immediately form a powerful force.

"Very good. Why not start the battle warlock selection tonight?" Zelin asked rhetorically. "First, like Sinide Island, arrange separate residences for other researchers who can't fight, and then select warlocks next to these researchers' residences? What do you know?"

"...If six years ago, you made plans on Sinide Island like this, maybe we don't need to spend so much time and effort to rebuild the Sorcerer Order." Xi'er sighed heavily. "No problem, I will go to discuss with Kaduin. He is very dissatisfied with Ladovide's backlash at the summit. But then, what are you going to do? Just signed the treaty, and ended up doing it outside Lomugne. It’s troublesome for the newly formed Order of Warlocks. Radovide has enough people to spread rumors, as long as there are any clues, he can convince half of the people in the north that it was the Order of Warlocks to tear it up immediately after signing the treaty. Agreed to attack the king’s army."

"Don't worry, Schill." Zelin shook his head. "Since Ladovide intends to solve the problem in secret, then we do the same. Prepare first, Xier. If we are not prepared, no matter who is there, all we can do is reduce losses, not prevent disasters. ."

After discussing the details to pay attention to with Xi'er and Siegfried, looking at the back of them leaving, Zelin took a deep breath and walked towards the low wall next to the tower.

Altarel was sitting on the low wall with legs crossed, adjusting the bowstring.

"Thank you for rushing over to help, Altariel."

"Your friend has a miraculous way to regenerate a severed limb." Altariel's voice was so soft that he could not hear any emotions. "I just thank you. What do you want me to do?"

"You should have heard it just now, the people from the Knights of the Flame Rose went to the lake in the south of the city."

Altarel nodded.

"I hope you can check it out and figure out what the Knights are doing there."

"Yeah"

"Then just come back and tell me."

Altarel jumped off the low wall, fell in front of Zelin, stretched out his hand, and the four fingers in the fingerless gloves were white in color.

"I try to return within an hour."

"No problem, I'll just wait here." Zelin stretched out his hand, preparing to hold the ranger's palm.

Suddenly, Altariel grabbed Zelin's wrist with his backhand and pulled him a step forward, his face serious.

"After this, I will stay to monitor you, the ring bearer. Until you hand over the ring to someone you previously claimed to be able to resist the temptation of the ring. If you are also tempted by the ring, I will make a mistake on you. Things stopped you before, or destroyed you."

"Of course." Zelin didn't show any surprise or disgust with Altaril's behavior. He understood that this was a normal vigilance, especially for Altaril. She had experienced this temptation. "When this matter is over, I will have time to go to another place and deliver the ring."

Altariel let go. "At that time, I will look at you. If you are confused, you know what I will do."

"Don't worry, the things you worry about will never happen."

Altariel narrowed his eyes, stepped back, and shook his head slightly. "You and I haven't seen each other for three months, but your changes are disturbing."

Zelin was silent for a few seconds.

"Okay, but let's solve the trouble here first. At least stop thinking about the ring issue tonight."

"Waiting for my news."

After that, she turned around, jumped onto the low wall, and leaped again for life, disappearing behind the wall.

Looking at the low wall in front of him, Ze Lin took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
