Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 168
[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 168]
“Then use the relationship of victory and defeat to solve it!” Elijah drew out the sword of the dark elf.
Charles shook his head.
Later, Ciel taught Elijah a serious matter. In addition to the relationship between victory and defeat, there is another thing in the Hunter’s Sanctuary that is more influential, and that is Ciel and his rules.
On the grounds of interfering with training, before leaving for Redwood Mountain, Ciel deducted Elijah’s fee and asked him to return to recruit training, spending all morning and night in the training hall.
Anything he didn’t understand, Hugo kindly told him.
Elijah’s fantasy was also ruthlessly broken before. He and Hugo tried to fight against each other, but neither of them won.
“You said he would become a discouraged person.” Ines looked at the training ground curiously.
“It’s a little early, and it’s just the beginning of what the demon hunters are going through.”
Ines looked at them for a long time, and then said with difficulty: “This is the second time I have seen a middle-level demon this year. It evolved from a little demon that I didn’t have time to kill. It means they must be before December. After the training is over, he will be dispatched to six nearby villages for long-term patrols if he can’t even pass the new year. The intensity of the attacks is increasing day by day, how many people do you think they will be able to return to the church next year?”
“One day we can solve all this.” Charles turned his back, “Let’s go forward, we must…” Having said this, he found himself unable to guarantee, “…It must be done, if it is not for us , what should you do?”
Chapter 214 Departure
Charles remembered the vision he had seen at the village temple of Limbenburg, where the mountains were covered with thick rosewood, and a little blue light flickered, and at night the light shot up into the sky.
“It’s in an area called Higalore,” Duvin reported to Shire, his eyes languid, his heart hidden, “in that area, every night you see a strange green light, and the place close to it will It’s bright, like daytime, and alarms the animals.”
“Have the locals found any clues?” Charles asked.
“They say that there is nothing on the mountain, it’s bare and it is a forbidden area for mountain people. The mountain people never go, so we basically don’t go. It’s probably like this. Basically, no one knows what’s inside. But recently I heard that there is a nearby area. Gold was found in the rivers of the world, and in short, it is a place where you will find it when you go there.”
“Then I have to go explore.”
“…What are you doing there?” Du Wen looked at Ciel suspiciously.
“Find the source of power.”
“The matter of the church is still left to her to take care of.”
“You mean Ines? Of course.”
“She…” Du Wen was a little sad.
“What’s wrong?”
“She’s not good.” Du Wen said dully.
“What a bad law.”
Du Wen just shook his head and sighed, “I’m not talking about others behind my back.”
“You’ve become polite.”
“I hope you can understand.”
“I also want to stay here for a long time, but I can’t.”
“why?”
“Fate.” I built this place, but I’m not going to run around here and do it myself, in fact, unless I become extremely strong, strong enough to fight the dark, and enough to fight the blade demon itself, everything is Empty talk.
“Yeah.” Du Wen stepped on the ground with his foot, “Fate, we all face it.”
“If you encounter any difficulties, I can help you.” Ciel said quickly.
“…” Du Wen shook his neck, turned around, and strode away.
I humiliated him.
Ciel looked at the empty side towers, where people were clamoring in the halls above or below, and there was no movement on the spiral staircase.
Ciel couldn’t directly ask Ines what the differences were between her and Du Wen. Ines was as careful as a hair, and she would definitely notice the clues. At that time, Du Wen would be trapped in injustice.
There’s still a clump of relationships to sort out here, and the thought of this Shire makes me feel subtly uncomfortable, and I shouldn’t be spending my time here.
So he shoved the report into the package, called Elijah, and hurried off.
“Why are you walking so fast.” Elijah was puzzled.
He found it, and a complicated thought flashed through Ciel’s heart. How should I answer?
He never wanted to gag, so he confessed to his apprentice: “Flee.”
“Fleeing what?” Elijah rode on an unremarkable bad horse, and the horse snorted and swept its tail back and forth as it sensed someone climbing up.
“Flee what I’m not good at dealing with.” Ciel found the anger, its scarlet eyes became more and more scary, and it was also devouring souls, Gladius’s skills are superb, so the blade demon will devour most souls, but there is always a small amount The remnant is consumed by the fury, making it stronger and more violent and bloodthirsty.
“There are things in the world that you are not good at dealing with.” Elijah rode through the aisle with Ciel and left through the side door.
“Do you think I’m great?”
Elijah did not praise anyone, and held it for a few minutes until they rode close to the gate of the Ashtree Hall, and when Charles almost forgot, he said, “The most powerful in the world.”
“I punished you before.” Charles said, “Don’t you hold grudges?”
“No.” Elijah shook his head, “Master has helped me too much.”
I gave him a crossbow and a sword, taught him how to shoot, and taught him how to survive in the wild, and Ciel’s tense heart was relieved in the slightest, and perhaps Elijah could really take the load on my shoulders a long time later.
They passed through the city gate. Because of the victory in the war, the tall buildings under the city walls of Ashtree Hall have not been demolished, but only hotels, tailors, blacksmiths and butchers and other buildings. People are bustling and blocking. The roads and streets were too narrow, and it took a lot of effort for them to successfully pass through the castle town and reach the suburbs, where they could finally ride freely.
Elijah didn’t speak much, and Ciel could only chat with Gladiu: “You exposed your power.”
“You should eat her,” Gladiu said greedily. “You should eat her, from boobs to thighs, don’t you like it?”
“Talking about you now.”
“If you kill her, no one will know the source of my power!”
“Do you think everyone is stupid? Or do you think I’m stupid? Make such a big blade, cut such terrible ravines and traces of destruction in the ground and houses, as long as those soldiers record and communicate back to the west coast, they will find you. The presence.”
“yes.”
“‘Yeah,’ the King of Darkness will notice the news that the Demon God of Blade’s Edge has survived, and it will do everything in its power to deal with you.”
“Maybe already on the way.”
“…Don’t say it so easily, I may not be able to fight them.”
“I’ve got the whole plan!” Gladiu said sharply. “Enough for us to destroy the Dark Lord himself!”
“How to do it?”
“Go to the West Coast.”
“To put it lightly…” As the capital of Loman, Eduardo’s lair, the West Coast is bound to have intertwined forces, ghosts and shadows, and the situation is gloomy and deceitful.
“I already know where to go.”
“how to get to?”
“Go back to hell.”
“For me, it’s an adventure to hell.” Ciel sighed in his heart, “I’m going to become a devil again.”
“No, it will be very relaxed and happy, we can go to hell in our current form, to a place where we can walk without being killed.”
“where?”
“The realm of the Demon God of Peace.”
“The two words peace and demon are normal, but they are a bit strange when they are spelled together, peace demon?” Ciel was confused.
“It’s okay, the Peace Demon God never hurts people, and its family members are all talents. They speak nicely. Going there is like going home.”
“In the end, the devil is still the devil.”
“Indeed, but we need to go there, you wait, I have to find a way to calculate the coordinates, otherwise it will be passed to the legal site next door…” Gladiu sank into the depths of Ciel’s soul, focusing on calculating the big It was a pile of numbers, and its mind was filled with strange symbols and algorithms that Charles could not understand.
It is looking for the overlapping part of this world and hell, this world is very big, and Ciel sees the whole world from Gladius’s mind, the earth rises and falls on the vast ocean, and there are more Other worlds, scattered between worlds are floating dust and mutilated stars.
At the same time, there is a vast void called the gap, which overlaps with this real world, and the two are parallel to each other in a sense. Gladius can drill a hole in this world, through the gap, and the gap is Tightly connected to hell, and hell is above the gap.
Just enter the gap and find the crevices in the rock formations and leylines to go to hell.
It’s just some complicated space theory, and all kinds of demons are fighting each other to save themselves and understand the mysteries of the world at the same time.
Dead demons respawn and lose most of their memories.
Gladius is proficient in such a form. It is strong enough to survive and understand the principles, but it is also suffering. It is a demon soul and can only draw conclusions from the past, and it is difficult to replicate the analysis process.
Since he has not formed his own brain, Gladius can only use Ciel’s thinking to think, and Ciel’s computing power is extremely limited, so Gladius is on the verge of going crazy.
Better not to disturb it, Ciel withdrew his consciousness and focused on the real world.
He and Elijah rode on the road for four days, always staying at a hotel, and never spending the night in the wild. When he had time to spare, Ciel would avoid others and continue to train Elijah in shooting with a crossbow. imparted his experience to him.
As time passed, they came closer to the foothills called Higalore, which seemed to be thriving, full of fruit trees in the rugged areas and wheat in the slightly flatter areas.
After the border war, the surviving soldiers who returned home unpacked, reunited with their families, and held large and small feasts everywhere. The family did everything they could to celebrate the safe return of their husbands and fathers.
At the same time, some families were unhappy. Shire saw that people’s bodies were also brought back and parked in the courtyard. Some families received mutilated bodies, some of the deceased had no bones, and some were considered deserters and could not get them. pension.
Their families were overwhelmed. Those who had the money to order coffins buried their relatives early, while those who didn’t had the money put the bodies in the courtyard, locked the door, and sat outside in a daze, watching how happy the reunions were.
Ciel looked at the ordinary people who were suffering, and could almost feel the same sadness in his heart.
Elijah refused to look at the miserable people, focusing on flowers and feasts.
“What’s a war like?” Elijah would practice swordsmanship at the Dojo of Tornado Swordsmanship. Ciel was glad he didn’t take him to the battlefield, it was too early for him.
“Don’t rush to ask, think first, imagine it grand and refined, full of heroic epics and valiant struggles, and tie it to something good…that way, when you experience it yourself, You’ll find out what a nuisance it is,” Shire said.
Elijah thought thoughtfully: “What if I like it more after I experience it?”
Charles was a little unhappy, what kind of person would like war?
He himself once had unrealistic ideas about war, and only when he went to the battlefield did he realize how hateful everything was. Facing Elijah’s naivety, Ciel really wanted to correct him.
But Ciel was reluctant to impose his values on others, so he said calmly, “That means you were born to fight.”
“I would like to be someone who was born to fight.” Elijah nodded.
Charles was confused: “Why?”
“I think I can,” Elijah said simply.
Chapter 215 Higalore
Ciel and Elijah arrived at the largest town in the area, the town of Roses. The dirt roads intersected and formed a cross, dividing hundreds of houses.
The house had only two floors at the top, with vegetable gardens and livestock sheds set up everywhere.
There are a lot of people, and they appear out of nowhere. Looking at the past, there is a lot of darkness, which is in stark contrast to the quiet small villages on the road.
After a little inquiring, the Ciel learned the source of the uproar: they had found gold in the immediate vicinity, as Duvin had provided.
Gold diggers mostly come from the southern region, and travel thousands of miles through the mountain trails to the town of Rose, in order to get rich overnight.
Fortune-seekers built more than a dozen sand-washing benches on the river bank, rolled up their trousers one by one, walked into the river to scoop up sand, dug up the soaked river mud, sifted it in a filter, and shredded it finely. After the sand had leaked to the bottom, all that was left were large lumps of dirt and pebbles.
There was indeed gold, Ciel heard a burst of excited shouts, someone found gold in the filter, the victor proudly held up the unpolished gold ore, showed it off to the people around him, and then stuffed it into his pocket, Don’t care about anything else, run away, so as not to be stared at by someone with a heart.
“They’re moving things.” Elijah saw people pick up those strainers and shovels and go up the river in twos and threes.
“Gold flows from the redwood mountains.” Charles looked at the mountains, which were covered with a large area of redwood forests. These trees are of good material, waterproof and rot-resistant, and are very valuable whether they are used for carriages or furniture.
The turbulent water came down from a cliff like a waterfall, very steep, and the pale water beat constantly, and some people undressed and jumped into the deep pool under the waterfall to swim, eager to find more gold in it.
No matter how they walked, they could not reach the source of the river, because they had to walk up the mountain road, climb the waterfall, and enter the deep mountain, so that they could reach the source of the river.
Charles looked around, they looked anxious and frantic, watching each other vigilantly, probably thinking that the other was trying to grab gold with him.
The war was far away in the Yuwan Hall, and it did not spread to the hinterland of the mountains. Commerce and population flow were very prosperous. Shire saw one carriage after another, full of newcomers, rushing down in a chaotic manner, like mercenaries and adventurers, More are ordinary people with no relevant background.
