The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"Except for the first few in today's game, the rest are all shameless liars! They don't know how to play cards at all. They rely entirely on cheating. There are also those referees. Keep staring at me, shameless liar! Liar!"

Amelia said indignantly at dinner. If she hadn't known that she had won, Zelin would have thought that Amelia was unwillingly defeated and eliminated under the siege of a group of swindlers and black referees.

"But in the end you still won. It looks like your deception is superior."

"Hmph, they are far behind me."

Gnaiya took a bite of the barbecue without expression. "You just said a shameless liar."

"Of course, they dare to lie to me, do I still praise them for being smart and skillful players?"

"But you lied to them too."

"That's because they are inferior to others. Who makes them inferior to me in card skills? Other skills are inferior to me. Well, I used to be a bishop not because of being obedient."

"So I should praise you as a smart, skillful player?"

Amelia raised her chin, her eyes narrowed, waiting for you to praise me.

Longyi sighed deeply, then took another bite of the barbecue. For some reason, she always felt that she couldn't get along with people like Amelia, Young Yousefka, and Frid, or couldn't talk together. Compared with their conversation, the badge placed by the demon hunter on the table was shaking constantly, making a harsh clang. The reason for all this is the work of the demon hunter and two wizards in the room upstairs to expel the curse.

The demon hunter was very surprised, why his badge did not warn him when he was near the attic where the cursed was hidden. Regarding this question, Kaduin sneered - although he did not show such an expression on the surface - if a group of half-hanging spellcasters, the emblem made by the magic of the elemental land could detect this for the purpose of concealment. The curse magic of theirs, they might as well throw down the staff, tear off the books, and go farming and plowing the land.

So now, that badge keeps shaking to show the sense of existence, and it is forcefully refuting Kaduin's words. Unfortunately, that was after the wizard started to cast the spell.

"The night is deep enough, let's get started."

This kind of curse is difficult to lift. Crazy victims will not obediently wear a braided headband and drink the potion at the right time. The victim's interest lies in tearing up the things in front of him with his nails, and then throwing everything that can be broken on the ground. Obviously, the braided headband and the cup with the potion are very qualified, and maybe the people who sent them here are also considered.

The wizard’s magic solves all this very well. The cursed woman is falling into a deep sleep, at least until the next morning, when the sun has completely risen before she can wake up.

"Why is there such a curse, appearing in Novigrad? Who is this woman? Why would anyone want to curse her and then throw her in an unmanned attic?"

"You said that she will only lose the memory of the cursed period. When she wakes up tomorrow, we will know who she is, why she was treated like this, and why she appeared there." Zelin Sitting by the fireplace, holding a wooden spoon in his hand, slowly stirring the iron pot sandwiched by the fireplace and throwing the gorse in. It is conceivable that this pot of soup must be bitter, but the potion made of herbs is not sweet.

"This makes me feel a little uneasy, Demon Hunter. We have all gone through the Coup on Sinide Island. I thought there was nothing in this world to make my heart palpitations, but now I have to admit that I was wrong."

Kaduin sat on a wooden chair and flipped through the books, while Dolegare used magic to stabilize the victim's spirit, and he was also monitoring, in case there was a hidden spell in the curse that they hadn't noticed.

"It's not just you."

Zelin looked at the flame in front of him licking the wood. After the Dragonborn came back, he told him that the sponsor of this big gambling game was Scott Edmund, and now he wanted to add the title of a baron. Dixcher also appeared in the big game. Obviously, as far as the demon hunter knew, the spy chief didn't use card games as his homepage, and he didn't even know that he had such a hobby in the past. Perhaps, he didn't go to play cards at all. He had said to the Demon Hunter before that this big game was not that simple.

It's really not easy.

After Amelia came back, Zelin learned of today’s promotion list from her. He found that except for Amelia, everyone else was a native of Novigrad and had some in Novigrad. Career, either as a businessman, or as a gang leader, or as a union leader and a powerful member of the city council.

Big bet?

Yes, on the first day, the real card players all lost all their chips. Edmund Bank set up a temporary loan point next to the casino. Unfortunately, someone did take out a loan, and then they still lost. . In the past, big gambling games were like a game, but many people got in the way. But now, the big bet has really become a bet, and ordinary players will definitely lose.

Of course, if this big gambling game only turns into a carve-out banquet for Novigrad's rights, neither the demon hunter nor the wizard will feel uneasy, it has nothing to do with them. But is Edmund related to the evil omen? Is he a cultist who worships lion-faced spiders? In this city, how many things they didn't expect.

"In any case, we can only wait until tomorrow."

"And the dreamer hasn't appeared yet, do you know how to divination? How about divination for me?" Before dark, Zelin went to the dreamer's house again, where the door was still closed.

"Do you have Kerin Tilly's clothes or hair?" Kaduin raised his thick black eyebrows. "Fortunetelling of a person's position requires that person's deep things, clothing, and commonly used utensils. It would be more accurate if it had hair or excrement."

"I don't have one, but she definitely has one in her house."

"Then we can only talk about it tomorrow."

Zelin sighed, looked at the bubbling water, and threw the remaining gorse in.

"I'll talk about it tomorrow, I don't like this word."

"I don't like it either."

Chapter 1206 Kelin Tilly

Novigrad passed another seemingly peaceful night.

It's just calm on the surface.

"I suggest you don't go again today. I don't know what they are planning, but they will not welcome an outsider to join."

Zhuolan's spell makes the demon hunter vigilant. It is one thing to see water ghosts in the sewers, but it is another to find clues to cults in unmanned houses. Everyone knows that water ghosts are dangerous and they know to stay away from the place where water ghosts are entrenched, but no one knows whether their kind neighbors who look kind during the day will become followers of the evil gods at night.

Admirers of lion-faced spiders believe that the **** they worship is the "big weaver" who weaves the fate of mankind into a giant web. This web is constantly being expanded and adapted. Sometimes some wires are broken, which will cause some people to die suddenly. And when someone breaks himself, his line will be disconnected, and his soul will be swallowed by Zhuolan. Therefore, he is worshiped as a **** in charge of unfaithful death. Green fires are usually lit in his temples, filled with human bones.

The danger for these believers is that they believe that death is the eternal part of reality that should even be sought. Priests were sometimes asked to break some people's "threads" to ensure the cleanliness of Zhuoran's web.

"Edmond, no matter what he intends to do, I will let the people of Eternal Fire arrest him." Perhaps the priests of Eternal Fire could not deal with the curse, and even said that they may not be religious believers at all, but they are dealing with evil. As for the believers, they still have a good set, and they are extremely efficient, much higher than the efficiency of the city hall. But they will definitely encounter a lot of trouble. Edmund not only used his own money to buy the castle and the title, he also has a strong influence in Novigrad. Eternal Fire has not yet reached the control of the city, it is possible to arrest a person without management and trial.

Assassination and kidnapping are even more difficult.

"I don't think so. You see, they have to hide on their cruise ship to go to the finals. Only I can get in without arousing their suspicion. I can find out what they want to do. The game will not last too long. Time, I will go this morning, and I will be back in the afternoon." Amelia spread her hands, rarely said seriously. "That ship can allow the contestants to take one person in. No matter what dangerous situation is encountered, I believe Ganya can deal with all of them."

This sentence is correct, no one knows what kind of power is contained in this blonde girl's body. Once she broke out, it would surprise everyone.

"And, you don't think I can only play cards now, do you?" Amelia interlaced her hands on her chest and raised her eyebrows. "Don't show unbelievable eyes, please, I used to be a supreme bishop, managing the entire Yanan and Church Town."

She shook her hand, and a dagger with a cold light appeared in her palm for some unknown time. Then with a slam of his hand, the dagger plunged straight into the gap in the helmet of a knight's armor placed on the wall ten steps away.

"When did you learn this trick?"

"Cheating and throwing a knife are essentially the same, that is, to be fast and accurate."

"It seems that I am going to take a look at you." Zelin picked up a fruit knife from the table, and after weighing it twice in his hand, the next moment, the fruit knife hit the flying knife inserted in the gap of the helmet and touched it. With a sound, the two knives fell on the ground together. "I haven't used a throwing knife for a long time."

Amelia pursed her mouth and grunted in her throat.

"Well, now you are better."

Gnaiya, who was adjusting her sleeves, came over. "Don't worry, if they have any bad plans, I will knock them out one by one." Longyi wears a hard leather armor under the shirt. She has always liked leather. A, light and can provide enough protection for important parts.

Before leaving, Zelin did not forget to explain to Gnaiya. "Be careful, don't worry about what trouble will cause, come to me if you cause trouble, and I will find a way to settle it." Sometimes Longyi doesn't want to cause more trouble, but this is not the time to be overly careful or low-key. There must be a lot of people on Edmond’s huge cruise ship. The ship is so big that it can’t even squeeze into the busy and crowded commercial port of Novigrad, especially when Chapei blocked a port. People will go to the sea outside the port in a canoe, where the big ship rumored to hold hundreds of people is moored.

After Gnaiya and Amelia left, Kaduin came to find the Demon Hunter.

"The woman you rescued has awakened. Come here soon. It's up to us to figure out the ins and outs of this matter."

The curse was smoothly lifted. In this morning, the complexion of the cursed person returned to the appearance of ordinary people with the light of the rising sun. Dulle Gare checked her eyes and teeth, and the bloodshot inside. Has faded. She woke up earlier than Zelin expected, but this was a good thing, which meant that the curse did not damage or consume her body too much.

When Zelin walked up the stairs, he saw the person sitting on the bed rubbing her forehead at a glance. She now looks no different from ordinary people, her eyes are showing confusion and incomprehension, but there is no big noise. Because of the signs of making trouble or being frightened suddenly in an unfamiliar environment, she can bear it much better than ordinary people. Zelin walked over, pulled a wooden chair to the side of the bed and sat down, and the woman's attention was drawn to the demon hunter.

"I know you have a lot of questions, but please believe that we are not hostile to you. I have some questions for you. Then we will tell you what happened here and send you home safely, if you want. ."
