Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job

Chapter 186 The Ancient Accident Rate (Thanks to the boss Qiankun Day and Night Only Me Wanjie Tony for the reward)
The Skellige believe in promise, courage and honor, and for these rough men living in the archipelago, honor is more important than life.

Facing the questioning of her closest ally, King East, Queen Calanthe showed the weakness of a woman for the first time. Her face flushed, her lips trembled, and her eyes were filled with tears.

Queen Calanthe's emotional display immediately caused a commotion among the guests. They looked for weapons everywhere, some picked up chairs, some picked up metal plates, some picked up candle bases, and they shouted to wash away the humiliation with blood, All looked angrily at Urchion in the center of the banquet hall.

For these princes and nobles who are affiliated with the Cintra vassal state and their own country, they certainly do not want to see the princess of Cintra marry a weirdo with unknown origins, and let an inexplicable person seize the throne they have coveted for so long.

King East took the lead to stop the chaos among the guests. He insisted on waiting until Queen Calanthe and Uchion made the matter clear.

And at this moment, the Baron Allenbert, nicknamed Giggata, suddenly stood up and said loudly:
"I know that many people have their own opinions on this matter, but my esteemed gentlemen, we are in the royal hall of Sintra, and we should maintain the most basic etiquette."

"So Queen Calanthe, please allow me to express my opinion."

Upon hearing this, Queen Calanthe looked at Baron Koketa, and said in a slow voice:
"You all have your own opinions, but as the one who has the most say on this matter, no one has asked me what I think."

"It's impossible for me to give my daughter to this weirdo."

Uchion was also in a hurry, he shouted loudly:

"But King Rognar's oath..."

But before he finished speaking, Queen Calanthe slammed the golden cup on the table, interrupting his speech.

The queen exhaled lightly, looked back at Baron Koketa, a friend of the royal family, and said:
"Speak, Baron, but you'd better keep your story short."

Baron Koketa bowed to the queen, nodded slightly to the guests, and then said loudly:
"Indeed, a weirdo made a weird request, but in the face of the ancient law of accidents, we can't pretend we didn't hear the request."

"According to the law of the law of accidents, a person who saves others does have the right to make all kinds of strange demands."

"Sometimes it may be, give me the first thing that greets you, and sometimes it may be, give me the thing that you didn't expect to appear in your house."

"And often such a thing might be a child, a chosen child."

Queen Calanthe frowned, knocked on the table, and said:
"Long story short, Baron."

Baron Koketa bowed slightly again, and said to the guests:

"Dear gentlemen, the ancient law of accidents is not false. Many legendary heroes in ancient times were chosen children of destiny in this way. In contrast, there were also many people who violated their oaths, and they all suffered the punishment of fate in the end. , met a tragic fate."

"The famous queen Zavilaina became the queen of Madina with the help of a dwarf, but she didn't want to give her child to the dwarf, so she drove him away with magic."

"So not long after, both the queen and his children died of the plague."

"See, under the witness of the gods, no one, no matter how noble their status, can be safe after playing tricks on fate."

Faced with such a point of view, Queen Calanthe's face became even more ugly. In fact, such examples abound in history. Many people do not believe in fate, but fate does exist, and it is precisely because of this that everyone is like this Fear of fate.

"Sit down, Baron, and let no more tales like this one be told."

However, Baron Koketa did not sit down, but bowed slightly to the queen.

"My dear queen, please allow me to continue."

"According to ancient legends, the human king kept his promise, so we vassals are loyal to the king, and all our privileges also come from our promises to the people."

"But now, shall we question those promises?"

Queen Calanthe was left speechless by what Baron Giggata said. She was silent for a few seconds, as if she had made great determination, and then said slowly:

"My lords, you deserve a reasonable explanation."

"This Urchion is telling the truth, my stupid husband made such a stupid promise."

"But the baron's words reminded me that I am not only a mother, but also a king. I will discuss the feasibility of this matter at the noble council tomorrow."

"As for the honorable knights here, I can only express my deep apologies for the mockery you have received."

The guests were in an uproar immediately after hearing this, and King East sighed deeply and said:
"Calanthe, you are openly encouraging bloodshed."

The queen's statement immediately made the knights present find a reason. They began to search for various weapons, clamoring that because of the humiliation, they wanted to have a knight duel with Urchion.

As for whether this Urchion is still alive after the duel, it depends on his ability.

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more chaotic, and when Urchion was about to be besieged by a group of people standing on the field, Geralt finally reacted. He stood up first, smashed his chair heavily, and shouted at the crowd :

"Perhaps there is no need to open the House of Lords at all."

Hearing Geralt's loud speech, everyone present looked at him in astonishment, not knowing what he meant.

Seeing Geralt's statement, Wayne is no longer in the state of watching the show. He has noticed that with the tense situation on the field, Princess Pavetta behind him is already tense, and seems to be on the verge of breaking out. the edge of.

As a natural source warlock, the magic power hidden in this princess is much stronger than that of a half-way monk like him, and this girl is in the period of passionate love, pregnant with Urchion's child, I am afraid that no matter who wants to hurt Hedgehog man, what he has to face is a terrorist attack by a source warlock with full magic power.

Geralt paused for a few seconds, then looked at Urchion and said:

"I said there was no need to convene a council of nobles. You know what I'm talking about, Urcheon?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Urchion took a step forward and said loudly to Geralt:
"I just heard what the Queen said, and she has found an excellent way to get rid of me."

"Okay, I accept your challenge, unknown knight."

Seeing that Urchion misunderstood him, Geralt shook his head and said calmly:
"I'm not here to challenge you, but to prove one thing."

Queen Calanthe understood Geralt's intentions in an instant, and she didn't care to call him Ravis again, and shouted to the witcher:
"Geralt, sit down and don't challenge my patience."

But Geralt ignored Queen Calanthe, but looked at Urchion and said:
"You must prove that there is indeed a bond of fate between you and Princess Pavetta."

"The ancient law of accident stipulates that only the child's permission can confirm the validity of the oath."

"It can also prove that you are indeed bound together by fate."

And the nobles among the guests, seeing that Geralt actually wanted to help Urchion speak, immediately shouted:
"who are you?"

"Who are you? How dare you boast in front of the ancient law of accident?"

In the face of such questioning, Grand Druid Mossak, who had been silent all this time, finally stopped being silent. He walked out of the crowd and said loudly:
"He is Geralt the White Wolf, and he is also a child of accident. Driven by fate, he has become what he is today."

Mossak enjoys a lofty status in the Skellige Islands, and is a friend of the royal family recognized by Cintra. Many people did not dare to be too presumptuous in the face of the Archdruid's words, but some people were still confused. asked:

"Son of accident, what does he do?"

Hearing this, the Archdruid was silent for a second, and then said loudly:

"He's a witcher."

In an instant, the field became quiet. Indeed, a demon hunter who was born as a son of accident is more qualified than anyone else to talk about the law of accident, because this ancient law is in the heart of every demon hunter. They are all extremely sacred. It is the most common method used by the older generation of witchers to select new witchers, and facts have proven that the survival rate of accidental children in witcher experiments is indeed the highest.

And when everyone was silent, the bell announcing the arrival of midnight suddenly rang.

Wayne noticed that the strange magic surrounding Princess Pavetta, Urchion, and everyone present became thicker.

After hearing the midnight bell, Queen Calanthe suddenly said to Urchion as if she had received some signal:

"Okay, it's time to fulfill your promise, but before that, you should also keep your promise and take off your mask."

However, Urchion didn't take any action, just stood there blankly, as if in a daze.

Wayne knew that the ringing of the bell just now was just a trick played by Queen Calanthe, in order to force out the prototype of Urchion before midnight and let him show the body of a hedgehog.

Thinking of this, Wayne looked at Geralt, seeing that Geralt's whole body was tense, as if he was ready to shoot at any time. When Wayne looked at him, he nodded to Wayne expressionlessly.

The content of the master mission this time is to assist Geralt to make the banquet develop according to his expectations. Wayne did not hesitate about this. Anyway, after the banquet is over, he will take the initiative to find Princess Pavetta or come back. Plus Queen Calanthe, tell them the hedgehog man's lie.

By that time, the fate of Geralt and Ciri will have been connected. As for the treatment of the hedgehog man, it will depend on what Queen Calanthe and Princess Pavetta think.

The scene was stalemate for a while, but Uzzion took off his mask. His funny appearance like a hedgehog immediately aroused the ridicule of the guests, and Queen Calanthe also showed a victorious smile, triumphant and cruel.

However, Uqiong acted very calmly. He said to the queen:

"When King Rognar told you that he made a promise, he should have described my appearance."

"It seems that you really put in a lot of effort to deal with me."

"Not only did I provoke the knights present to attack me, I even invited a demon hunter."

"In the end even resorted to such childish tricks to humiliate me, but you know you're humiliating yourself."

Queen Calanthe was furious at Urchion's ridicule, she shouted loudly:
"Enough, let's make a break."

As she spoke, the queen looked at her daughter on the seat next to her, and asked loudly:

"Pavita, you should know by now what kind of monster this guy who wants to get you is."

"In the tradition of the ancient law of accident, the choice is now yours."

"Answer yes and you will be the trophy of this monster, answer no and you will never see this ugly monster again."

Hearing Queen Calanthe's question, everyone present looked at Princess Pavetta. At this time, the princess's face was a little pale, and her mood swings were very strong.

Maybe these ordinary people can't feel anything, but Wayne, Geralt, and Archdruid Mossack who are present can clearly feel that the magic in the entire hall has become extremely heavy, as if A pair of shackles pressed the three of them so hard that they couldn't breathe.

Wayne sighed in his heart. If Princess Pavetta was forced, it would be okay, but this princess is now devoted to her sweetheart, and she is still pregnant with the hedgehog boy's child.

At this moment, both Wayne and Geralt heard the voice of the arch druid Mossak, and the old druid said in an old voice:

"Be careful not to let Queen Calanthe break the law of accident. This is for her and Pavetta's sake."

Wayne turned his head to look at Geralt when he heard that. Geralt was also a little pale under the pressure of the magic, but he still nodded firmly to Wayne, approving the old druid's handling method.

And under everyone's attention, the pale Princess Pavetta suddenly raised her head, looked affectionately at Urchion who looked like a hedgehog, and said:
"I am willing."

In an instant, the entire banquet hall fell silent, and huge magic power began to gather around the princess. The pressure on Wayne, Geralt, and Mossack was relieved, but their expressions became more dignified, very She looked at Princess Pavetta in surprise.

For this situation, Wayne couldn't help being a little stunned. This was the first time he had experienced the power of the native warlocks. Princess Pavita was just an ordinary person who hadn't learned any magic knowledge, and she was only controlled by instinct. To be able to gather such a powerful magical power, it can only be said that he is worthy of being the owner of the ancient blood.

Hearing the princess' answer, Queen Calanthe slumped slowly on the throne without any expression on her face.

After receiving the princess's answer, Urchion taunted everyone like a criminal who had been wronged:
"Everyone has heard it, my rights have been confirmed, what means do you have to stop me now."

"Hidden blade, or more witcher?"

"I'd like to take Pavita with me now, and of course I don't mind having some entertainment."

"For example, let the honorable Queen Calanthe bring her daughter's hand to me, and give her white hand to me."

Hearing the provocative speech of the hedgehog man, Wayne instantly felt what it meant to seek death.

Sure enough, following the Hedgehog Man's speech, the originally calm guests immediately became rioted.

Kratz, the wild boar of the sea, has a bad temper. He yelled:
"What kind of shit is this?"

Then the first one couldn't bear it, picked up a small knife for cutting meat on the table, and was going to teach Urchion a lesson.

And a knight named Lin Faen also picked up his weapon and rushed towards Urchion.

Queen Calanthe couldn't bear it anymore, she yelled, "Guards!" Then the whole banquet hall was in a mess.

Seeing this situation, Wayne didn't want to wait any longer. He rushed in front of Uchion at extremely fast speeds, and punched him in the hedgehog's face before the movements of the Sea Boar and Lin Faen.

Anyway, the mission this time is to save the hedgehog man's life, lest Princess Pavetta and Queen Calanthe suffer the backlash of fate. As for whether the hedgehog man is injured, it is just a trivial matter.

Moreover, there are not many opportunities to defeat the future Southern Emperor like now.

Wayne's punch was neither light nor heavy. Under the astonished eyes of the hedgehog man, he punched him on the cheek, directly interrupted his arrogant speech, staggered him, and spat out a few tooth.

King East is also very aware of the importance of the law of accidents. This strong man mercilessly punched his nephew Kratz in the face, making him stagger and fall on the banquet table, while the bagpipes beside him The hand took the opportunity to smash the bagpipe on Kratz's back, smashing the bagpipe to pieces.

But when the knight Lin Faen with the weapon rushed towards Urchion with a grim face, he was directly hit on the chest of the armor by Wayne's Alder seal, beating the knight like a roll Like a gourd, it rolled four or five meters on the ground and hit the wall of the throne room.

At this moment, with the order of the queen, a large group of guards also rushed into the banquet hall.

Queen Calanthe no longer had the glamorous and confident temperament of the past. Pointing at Urchion, she shouted hysterically:

"Guard, kill that monster quickly."

After receiving the queen's order, the heavily armed guards immediately flocked to Urchion who was beaten by Wayne like a swarm.
