Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 415

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 415]

“Yes,” said the wizard. “Even if each of us dies, it is the attitude and principle to stop your line of attack here. Our bones will inspire people to fight.”

“But I’m not going to war,” said Shire. “I’m willing to bring about the most peaceful and mutually beneficial outcome.”

“You sent the woman who poisoned her compatriots and asked her to publicize your wrong ideas. You actually want to rule the Great Swamp, an outsider! This is impossible, you have completely angered us, there is no peace here.” The wizard Strictly speaking.

“Be respectful!” Orifama shouted, “by my side are the guardians of all Loman realms, the masters of the hunter’s sanctuary, the man favored by the gods, the red-knife ranger, the undefeated god of war, the man of all faiths. Incarnation, guardian of the world, savior against the invasion of demons! You don’t want to join his glorious and noble cause, but you are still here to talk nonsense and try to stop him, how hateful you are! Hey, to you, I’m afraid death is a more worthy ending!”

“Shoot, the demons attacked from the west coast, and it must be Hitania who was caught in the middle and perished first, and then it was our turn,” said the wizard.

Ciel thought for a while, then jumped up and climbed the city wall.

“Charle Grani has decided to kill us!” the wizard yelled back quickly.

“Ah!”

“Be careful!”

“He has already made up his mind to do it!” The other wizards also picked up their wands, prepared their spells, and attacked Ciel.

Facing the streamer and arrows flying towards him, Ciel turned his war divinity into a red mist, spreading out in all directions. The divinity formed an insurmountable barrier, and the shaping technique disappeared into the invisible as soon as it collided. At the same time, the red fog also covers their bodies. As a force that dominates the war, it can control both extremes. It can not only stimulate people’s desire for war, but also use it in reverse to calm people’s anxiety and war will.

“Think about it,” Ciel said calmly. “Are you really willing to continue to expand the conflict? Continue to provoke me, let me smash the entire swamp and sink the wizarding home to the bottom of the sea, this is what you really want. ?”

The wizards looked at each other.

Ciel only gave them a head, and the next second, he took back the red mist and let them think for themselves.

He could also use his power to manipulate their minds, but that would be despicable.

“We refuse to be vassals of Citania,” said a wizard stubbornly, “if that so-called Queen Citania sends someone to ride on our heads to make a fortune and give our home to some nobleman , we will never promise!”

“As for the specifics, you should send an influential delegation to let the Swamp participate in the meeting after the defeat as a whole. After all, you have to hand over the war criminals and pay the reparations, and you can never stay out of it.” Ciel said.

“Who is qualified to represent the entire swamp? Even if some people are willing to surrender, others will be divided, and we are not as clear-cut as you are.” The wizard said, “Before ‘that guy’ could command the swamp, but he also Killed by you.”

“So that’s what I went into the swamp for, to let the wizards in chaos figure out what to do now,” Ciel said.

“Um…” They looked nervous and couldn’t fully trust them.

“Which school did you belong to before?” Ciel pointed to a wizard.

“Me? I’m from the White Sandpiper School.”

“What about you? And you.” Charles asked their background.

“It used to be the school of otters.”

“The White Sandpiper School.”

“The Toad School, why are you asking these.” They were puzzled.

“My purpose is to restore the normal order of the swamp,” said Shire, “to allow members of the White Sandpiper to continue their research, to allow members of the Otter School to prepare potions, and to allow the Toad School wizards to openly communicate with Luo. Mann people do business, and also set up schools to train new children. As long as you decide to make concessions, I will bring benefits, which will benefit both parties. Well, my patience will end here, either Get out of the castle, or die as promised.”

“Um…”

“move……”

“And a wife and kids…”

“This is also impossible.” The wizards muttered for a while, and quickly packed up and withdrew from the river bank.

“They’re so stubborn,” Orifama said, “and they’re trying to fight back at this point. It’s really not a big punch. I hope they keep their eyes open and try to attack, and then they’ll know that. It’s done.”

“Can other people understand your attitude? There should be many people who criticize you.” Ciel asked.

“This has nothing to do with understanding,” Orifama said flatly. “The devil is now invading the whole world, and everyone in this world has an obligation to stand up and fight for the safety of the whole world. In my opinion, either personally Dedicated to the front line against the demons, or desperately supporting the brave warriors who are fighting the demons, no matter how bad it is, you can stay on the sidelines and not cause trouble for the warriors. But there are such a group of people, not only do they not want to help destroy the demons, On the contrary, I still care about my own interests. Hehe, even if they criticize me, I don’t care. Anyway, I see a longer-term view than them, and my position is more legitimate than them. Isn’t that enough? I can still boast that I have a contribution here!”

“It’s nice to know that there are wizards with a clear mind like you.” Ciel greeted Orifama.

“I was made this way by the devil.” Orifama sighed, “I was eroded by the aging devil, which killed my relatives and left indelible traces in my heart forever, which made me grow from grace and glory. The young wizard of Zhengmao has transformed into his current appearance with gray temples. How can I not hate demons, how can I not deeply realize the endless calamities brought by demons to this world? It’s time, I have been waiting, I gave a good word to the King of Wizards before, but he was knocked out with a punch, hey! Now he is dead, and he deserves it.”

Orifama took the Shire to the River Weines, north of the riverbank.

The river divides the border provinces, the Everglades, and the Frostfalls. It originates in the mountains on the borders of the Inner Empire, flows down the Great Swamp into the North Sea, and settles in the wetlands along the way, intertwined with other water networks.

“That’s it.” Orifama found a boat, pushed it down the river, sat on the boat, beaming, “It’s an honor to be on the boat with the hero, I don’t know how to remember this in the future. In a day, it’s true that future generations will be smothered. Ah, provided I can find someone with a big heart who is willing to appreciate my old face and gray hair!”

“You are optimistic and funny, and you will always find true love.” Charles boarded the boat.

They rowed down the Weine into the Great Marsh, and soon the water was foggy, the trees became more lush, and the water changed from swift and clear to smooth and turbid.

When we officially entered the corpse-throwing swamp, the water almost turned muddy green, filled with impurities and turbid objects that Shire could not tell. Visibility rapidly diminished, a chaotic scene.

It was as if the world had returned to the desolate years.

Orifama rowed carefully, avoiding the huge trees that grew in the swamp, many with their slender branches and breath whiskers stroking over the charr’s head like a human hand.

Visibility is low, with overgrown vegetation making it impossible to see anything from a few meters away.

Ciel looked at the trees around him. They were very close to each other. The places near the water were covered with moss, and far from the water, many vines and fungi sprang up. The green plants were small and dense, clinging to the bark.

It is completely different from Loman, and there is hardly a dry place to stay.

Soon the Shire saw those white flowers, and this spectacle gave it the nickname of White Swamp, Silver Swamp.

He saw pale funeral flowers flourishing on the water, and if he looked closely, he could see that their roots were deep, buried in the hazy corpses, and the skeletons were of different outlines, some of which were human corpses, some of which were huge animals. The corpse, with a strange appearance, seemed to come from another world, nourishing the pale flowers floating on the water with its own nutrients, and letting them bloom coquettishly in the mist.

“There’s a place you should meet,” Orifama said. “Before you go to An’Assas, maybe you’ll want to see the house where Etienne Jiusui lived, I heard it was your master , also the most famous and powerful demon hunter before you, I grew up listening to his legend, and he lived in the swamp for a long time.”

“Of course.” Charles thought, “I really want to see it.”

Chapter 509 Etienne’s Former Residence

“About forty years ago, Etienne lived in the swamp for a long time.” Orifama rowed the oars, “that’s what my grandparents did. Etienne Jiushui, it sounds like It’s a swamp name, and a lot of people also think he’s from the Great Swamp, and even came to us for revenge, as if he’s good at attracting attention.”

Good at making trouble.

Charles knew what he meant.

“Master didn’t tell me about his origin,” said Charles.

“Actually, he is from Loman. I heard that he was born at the junction of the Great Swamp and Loman. The Jiushui family used to be a famous family in the swamp, but by the time of Etienne’s generation, it had declined greatly.”

“why?”

“There are many factors, the Swamp family is often unlucky, there are feuds, plagues, monster attacks, etc.” Orifama said, “But the main thing that ruined the Jiushui family is inbreeding, and there are more and more genetic diseases, which is a malignant disease. Circulation. But Etienne is an outlier from the Jiusui family. Unlike his siblings, he has neither a pig’s tail nor intermittent epilepsy.”

“Is it that scary?”

“Yeah, but sometimes there are good outcomes, and we call that kind of kids ‘pure blood’, the best men and women, brothers and sisters passing down the best part of the family to form the best offspring. It’s like Etienne, born wiser, stronger and precocious than ordinary people,” Orifama said.

“There should be other descendants in the Jiushui family.”

“I think all but Etienne are extinct,” Orifama said. “None of that generation, except Etienne, lived past the age of thirty. Perhaps because he realized that the family was doomed, he was fifteen. Immigrated to us at the age of 2.”

“I guess the master is entangled with a lot of women.”

“He is afraid that, like his own family, there are terrible seeds hidden in his body that will eventually give birth to grotesque offspring, so he would rather sow seeds everywhere to find women he doesn’t know.”

“It stands to reason that the master should have countless illegitimate children and illegitimate daughters.” Charles said.

“Maybe, maybe not, considering that Etienne was a demon hunter, you know, demon hunter wasn’t a good term at that time, and if you got dementia you would become a walking dead, this kind of thing is very scary, it’s related to demons The research also all ended in disaster, so although there were many women who had sex with him, they would rather throw their children away and throw them into the swamp than raise a demon hunter’s baby. Maybe he really achieved his dream, and A woman he didn’t know gave birth to a healthy child, and maybe he still didn’t escape, gave birth to a flawed offspring, and passed on disasters and curses from generation to generation.”

“Master’s child is healthy,” said Charles.

“I’ve heard it, meaning that Ines Hisui is really…”

“Yeah.” Charles nodded.

“The world is really unpredictable. It’s really uncomfortable for an old hunter who is committed to fighting the devil, but his daughter has become a prisoner of the devil and publicly broke with you. Ah yeah, it’s more legitimate to follow in your footsteps.” Ori Fama said.

The boat approached a wet mud island, a moss-covered house was hidden by overgrown trees. It was only one storey high, had not been repaired for a long time, and had air leaks from all sides.

“Is this the place where the master lived.” Ciel climbed down from the edge of the boat and stared at the dilapidated house.

“When Etienne first came, no one wanted to give him a place to live, and he also faced the risk of being hunted and caught to do experiments.” Orifama pulled the boat aside, “so he has been desperate, he is crazy Chuang, he is fearless, he will try whatever he sees, not afraid of death or risk, as long as the reward is high, he will do it, so he quickly rose to fame and became a particularly controversial person in that era. Practicing in the most dangerous places , made himself the most powerful mercenary, tossed between various schools, slept with countless girls, and then he built his own home here piece by piece. Although he left the swamp never came back.”

Charles walked into the house built by Etienne himself in awe, and he could almost imagine the arrogance and indulgence of his master when he was young.

Humidity is on the face, the inside is dirty and messy, old pots are placed on the cabinet, garbage is piled up in every corner, and a bed is suspended in the air. , with vines tied at both ends, connecting the two ends of the house.

He picked up a jug, which was filled with wine and had been stored for more than 40 years.

“He spent many days and nights here,” Orifama said. “No one knows why he left all of a sudden. People say he got advice.”

“Suggest?”

“Maybe it was a mysterious traveler, maybe it was a woman he was in a relationship with, maybe it was a dream, but he was advised that Etienne Jiushui had to leave the swamp and escape the day-to-day life of the Jiushui family. Fate, escape from all this, escape from his predetermined future.”

Charles stared blankly at the hammock, where the master used to lie, pondering in the boundless night, thinking about whether he should leave all this, whether he could break free from the cage and shackles, thinking about fate or not, thinking about it. Whether you can succeed in the future.

Then he took that step.

Etienne Jiushui made a decision, he strode out of the swamp, left his absurd and frantic life in his early years, and went to the Ash Tree Hall, where he was trained and cultivated as a demon hunter, and finally his footsteps traveled all over the land of Loman, his fame Known to the world, he slashed terrifying demons, hunted monstrous monsters, and even visited the tombs of kings, and the inhabitants and foreigners of the far-flung frontiers have heard of his deeds.

Thinking of this, Ciel let out a long sigh.

“Master is a great man.”

“So he did it?” Orifama said. “Do you think he did it?”

“Of course it did.”

“That’s great,” Orifama said.

“But I don’t know if I can do it. The road is there, but the road is too difficult. The end of it is so far away that it seems impossible to see.” Hearing about his master’s past made Shire feel that the world was complicated.

“Whatever is so far away to you, it is boundless to us,” Orifama said.

Hearing Orifama’s words, Ciel’s eyes narrowed.

The master is the torch that illuminates me, and I am illuminating others.

I am the one who walks in the forefront of the whole world, and I cannot show my cowardice.

“Master has made his decision, and I will make mine too,” said Charles. “I hope my life can be as vibrant and full of power as Master.”

Orifama takes Ciel out of the cabin.

“Let’s continue to An’Arthas, shall we?” Orifama walked towards the boat.

“Wait.” Charles held him back.

Today’s Ciel’s senses are much sharper than before, and he can clearly distinguish the noise in the air from the vague hostility. The sense of crisis is approaching from all angles. The watermarks looked extremely suspicious.

Something is coming.

Charles thought to himself.

More than one attacker, they are trying to settle accounts with me.

“What?” Orifama was reminded, and also felt that something was not right.

“Hide,” said Charles.

“I just look old, but I’m actually pretty good at fighting,” Orifama said quickly.

“Then be careful.” Ciel clenched Sindariel tightly and pulled it out in half. Divinity gathered and turned into dozens of sharp blade shadows, shooting into the distance.

They are sharp-edged, rampaging, leaving huge nicks wherever they pass, the sound of trees falling one after another, they are cut off by the middle, and they fall heavily into the water, setting off waves, and the sound of water is endless.
