The cat looked very excited, running around, and finally jumped onto the armor box where the "Golden Lion Armor" was stored, then lay on it and stared at Shade with its big amber eyes and its tail wagging.
Shade has already opened the package given by Sister Devlin. There are many things in the rotten and smelly cloth buried deep in the ground. Not to mention useless sundries, several bottles of magic potion have obviously been damaged due to improper storage.
After deterioration, the remaining ore still has some value. It looks like a piece of silver ore.
In addition to this, there are three important items. What Shade saw at a glance was the [Demon Hunting Seal] that he was very familiar with. This is the symbol of a witcher, and it is also the third one he owns, and the second one is
He gave it to Iluna.
"But what do I need so many of these rings for? I don't intend for others to come into frequent contact with demons."
But no matter what, it is also a good collectible. If he meets a suitable partner in future adventures, Shade can consider entrusting him with the third ring.
Of the remaining two, one is a very thick book, but there is no need to worry about whether it can still be read, because the book is a relic, and relics will obviously not be damaged by the environment.
The cover of the book is black, with the title written in white letters on it - "The Witcher's Notes".
The back of the book is also pure black, but it is painted with the same symbol representing the exorcism of demons as the [Demon Hunting Seal], and the bottom is written in dark red like blood:
[Are you ready to take on the fate of a witcher? 】
Shade raised his eyebrows:
"Isn't this a prop inherited from a witcher?"
But he said that he did not intend to become a witch or a witcher, so Shade had no intention of opening the book. Instead, he re-wrapped the book with the piece of rag in awe and planned to wait until
After confirming the characteristics of this relic, open it and view it.
As for the last remaining item, it was a rough black stone that Shade could feel the demonic power with his eyes closed. The demonic power of that stone was so strong that he even felt that it might be part of a certain demon.
But the fact that it was brought back by Shade through the [Space Maze] means that it has lost its activity.
At first, Shade didn't understand why the hunter would carry such a thing with him, but soon he thought that the power that the hunter allowed the soul of the old woman in the village to pass on to those who came after him was the [remaining advice].
Then he understood.
He put the [Demon Hunting Seal] on his hand and blinked at the black stone:
"The remaining words of advice."
Sure enough, a string of luminous white runes immediately appeared on top of the stone, and it was written in the common language of Kasenlik:
[There is a mithril vein in the Vesta Grove. I came here to forge new weapons, but found unimaginable evil here, and thus discovered the demon of fire-Dizast. A latecomer, the demon is not
The key is, I have decided to sacrifice myself to seal the demon.
Be careful - the tree has changed into a human being. Be careful of those who give you guidance. This is why I encountered the devil, but I am willing to sacrifice myself.】
"Mithril veins? Isn't this a mithril ore?"
Shade looked at the ore he had just played with again, and then thought about what it would mean to him if he could really find a mithril vein, but then he thought of the hunter from a hundred years ago, who still didn't leave his name, and couldn't help but
I feel a little sad about this.
And "she" in the ear asked with a smile:
【Now that the tree has transformed into a human being, who is the human being?】
"Yeah, who is it?"
(Little Mia is running.)
It was raining heavily in the Vista Forest today. As soon as Shade came out of the tree hole, he was immediately drenched by the rain. Obviously, there was no sound of rain inside the tree hole.
This was the heaviest rain in this forest this autumn in his memory. Even the elf girl living in the tree house rarely went out to do anything. When Shade went to deliver breakfast to her, he curiously asked about such heavy rain.
How do the chocobos in the weather forest live, and the elf girl gave a very simple answer:
"They have their own nest in this forest. These little guys have been living here since the last era. They know much more about this place than I do."
After speaking, he looked Xia De up and down again:
"Yesterday's demon hunt seemed to go well, didn't it?
You are very different now from when we met yesterday. From now on, when you walk in this forest, you don’t need to wear the garland of green star flowers I gave you. With your current affinity with nature, the forest
I will take the initiative to make way for you. If you are willing to learn spells related to nature, you will be more talented than others."
This is the improvement that Shade gained from absorbing the curse of the "Great Tree" more than thirty years ago, and the benefits of "natural affinity" are obviously not the only ones.
In addition to bringing breakfast, Shade also did not forget to take out the branch burning with sparks that the doctor gave him last night. Because this branch is made of the world tree, it cannot be turned into a toy, but even if it gets stained on a rainy day
The moisture will not affect the sparks above.
"Look at this, can you tell what this is?"
"Branches of the World Tree."
The elf girl just glanced at it and said:
"The [Ocarina of Time] in the flower pot on the window sill behind me and the key in your neck are made of the same material. The special thing is that all the branches of the world tree currently existing in the material world are
It's 'stale', after all, the tree father has been gone for many years. But this branch is still fresh."
She waved the branch and placed it beside the table:
"Keep this with me and take it away when you need it."
Shade nodded and had no objection to this.
When she rushed to the Accordion Hotel in the city despite the rain, Flora did not paint the fifth oil painting as she had said early this morning. It seemed that she had a heart-to-heart talk with Miss Daniste late last night.
But at least the red-haired girl didn't look so angry anymore, and she looked the same as usual when she greeted Shade. However, everyone had a tacit understanding and stopped talking about Ms. Helena Carter. Shade decided to wait a few days
Then tell her about the astrologer Mr. Euclid.
When little Mia emerged from the chest of Shade's coat, Shade only mentioned to them the items in the package that Sister Devlin found in the deserted village.
Regarding the relic book "The Witcher's Notes", neither the witch nor the well-informed librarian had ever heard of it, but they both thought that Shade had better not open the book.
So if you want to know what this is, Shade probably needs to ask a doctor.
As for the advice he read from the black stone, Flora and Miss Daniste both frowned after hearing it, but they only understood that the evil thing had the ability to transform into a human being.
"Even if a hunter knows that he has been deliberately led to the devil, he still goes to death willingly. Such people can be considered heroes."
Although the other party was a man, the witch still admired her and then said:
"But since hunters a hundred years ago were able to track down such well-hidden evil objects because of that mithril vein, can we also find each other through the mine a hundred years later?"
Then she answered her own question:
"Vanessa is the witch of the earth. Detecting mineral veins is her best skill. Let her investigate when she comes."
As for last night's operation, it can be called a complete victory. Not only did Shade and others successfully defeat the demon, but even the assisting team sent by the church successfully fought against the burning trees in the forest.
And after the demon disappeared, most of them were solved by early this morning.
People in the city probably only heard that a few buildings in the city were on fire, but in fact last night's operation was the most successful "demon hunting" operation that the church has participated in in the past century. Although the church itself did not have direct contact with the devil
After contact, they didn't even know that the demon split itself into four parts, but at least the demon was really eliminated.
The evidence lies in the fact that at dawn today, the temperature of the [Ice Magic Box] in which the Holy See of the Church of Nature sealed the split body of the devil suddenly dropped. Then the Holy See received news from the Vesta Grove, and after taking the risk to open the box, the black flower inside
The flame has indeed been extinguished.
After Miss Bell got up early this morning, when she obtained information about the church on the black market, she actually heard that the church wanted to invite her and the "God Caller" to the local church to receive awards, but they were flatly rejected by the young witch apprentice.
It's just that although the devil has been killed, the matter is far from over. For example, Shade has not yet seen the tree hole used to transfer the Hoy family's treasure three hundred years ago.
But thanks to yesterday's afternoon tea party, it was determined that Sir Wayne, who works for the "Drin'all Zionists", has a time curse on him, so there is a high probability that the tree hole is in his hands.
Therefore, while there was still some time on this rainy Thursday when the witches had not yet arrived, Shade and Miss Danister went out to reclaim the fifth tree hole.
According to the performance of the two demons fighting Shade last night, George Kant and Madam Shatara are real and most of the time they act of their own will, but in fact most of their decisions are influenced by the demons.
.
This is a standard manifestation of a "demon possessed", and is another manifestation of a "devil follower" that often appears in evil spirits and demon incidents, different from the "demon" who has accepted the power of the devil.
The bodies of the two were not destroyed during the battle in the forest, but were handed over to the local church by the witch afterwards. After determining whether there was any remaining demonic power in their bodies, the church was already trying to find out how to dig out their bodies.
The devil did something under his control, and the information was shared with the witch by the church.
