Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 396

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 396]

Charles walked into the vineyard, sat on a rattan chair, leaned back, and fully relaxed his body.

The servants and soldiers beside him were frightened, exchanged glances, and after a while, they served Charles food and wine in a flattering manner, placing apple pie and a herb-roasted chicken on a plate, and then a bottle marked with white Aged wine from the Goose Lake badge.

No need for Shire to continue to struggle, the people settled everything, quickly seized the manor, and liquidated the proceeds.

During the process of escape, the wizards kept gathering scattered soldiers, holding the idea of defending, and also gathered a large amount of food, grass and supplies, all of which were stored in the large warehouse of White Swan Lake Manor, enough to arm thousands of people and satisfy tens of thousands of people. People’s needs for a whole year are now all in the hands of Ciel.

In the depths of Ciel’s soul, those fragmented edge divinities have also swelled up one after another this month, each brighter than before.

His reputation is getting wider and wider, and more and more people are aware of the miracles he has performed, and in their hearts there is a sincere adoration and fantasies for the Shire, and a manifested divinity is formed.

Savior, hero, leader… Ciel muses.

In the process of observing the divinity, he noticed the gazes of others.

Charles turned his head and saw a man standing between several white pergolas.

He looked chubby and worried, his face was covered in dirt, and he hadn’t cleaned himself in a long time.

Charles felt that he knew him, so he called him over: “Have we met?”

He looked at Ciel for a while, then smiled wryly.

“Yes,” he said, “at the banquet at Limbenburg.”

“You are Mikael.” Ciel came back to his senses, it was a very rich nobleman in Linbianborg, at that time Ciel thought he was the richest man in the world, “Meet again, why are you here? This?”

“This is my family’s estate,” Mikael said. “I’ve been working here for three years.”

“You look miserable,” Charles couldn’t help gazing at him.

Mikael, once pampered, fat, and laid-back, is now stained and tired, with a lingering tired look on her face.

“I don’t know,” Mikael said. “In the past…I lived a ridiculous and wasteful life…I just knew I had a lot of money…I wasted everything…sleeping…empty… …empty…spending a third of my time eating…thinking I’m going to get rich…”

“Times change,” Charles said.

“Money has no meaning…” Mikael was at a loss, “They are extremely vicious, they are like a bunch of lunatics.”

“No one can guarantee their own safety in troubled times.”

“I can’t do anything in front of them, the rules have changed overnight.” Mikael is quite confused, “The rich become weak, the poor take up arms, and savage wizards from the swamp kill for fun, I don’t know why. It’s going to be like this, I can’t get used to it, I see family members dying one by one, they…killed my parents, raped my never-before-seen wife, locked her in the cellar. My servants beat and scold her daily I, laugh at me during the day, splash me with cold water at night, beat me to vent, and make me do several times of work. I don’t know, I don’t know what to do in the future. Seeing you in such a situation… wonderful.”

“really.”

“Help me,” Mikael begged. “You’re a big man now.”

“Have you touched the weight of life now?” Charles asked.

“Life’s… weight…”

“I remember you did a lot of ‘trying’ before, trying to change your lifestyle, to have a little bit of fun in it, to make yourself less boring.”

“yes……”

“You were fat and empty back then. You felt that you should be more concerned about your body, your education, your future job, your family.”

“No. That doesn’t make any sense… Calamity will still come… I should look to the potential danger.”

“You don’t know anything about your knowledge, potential and ability, you do nothing, you don’t even care about yourself, why pay attention to what is happening in this land and what may happen in the future?”

“…”

“It’s not too late to get back on track.”

“You are a hundred times more determined than before.”

“I used to be at a loss, but I am also growing. I died once and used an opportunity, so this time I will try my best to do what I haven’t done.”

“Hey…” Mikael sighed, “How cold you are.”

“Do you crave sympathy? Sympathy is so cheap that everyone can give it to you. I will provide you with more important things – jobs and security, and you will start working from this, working for yourself or being hired by others, whatever , you’re going to sweat, be productive, and get what you deserve. It’s more meaningful than compassion, and labor gets you into the society and lets you actually start creating value for yourself and those around you.”

Mikael shook his head and left with heavy steps.

Charles poured himself a glass of wine, and before he could drink it, he heard someone shouting.

“His Royal Highness—” Loic said.

“Please say.”

“We’ve found something incredible…very…very dangerous,” Loic said. “Have you ever seen one of those…steel giants?”

Chapter 486

The burly and huge metal golem left Forestside Fort and marched towards Gumen Fort, ready to conquer it.

Ciel and his followers went to stop him.

They rode on the open field, followed by a part of the army, about two hundred cavalry and four hundred infantry, slightly conical.

“The level of provocation is already disgusting,” Elijah said.

“When have wizards ever been popular,” Claire said. “Since the past, they have often performed spells, spread panic and rumors among the people, and sold their messy gadgets and potions, many of which are scams.”

“They have their own homes, why did they come to attack us?” Luo Dan was puzzled.

“Because of the carrying capacity of the environment,” Shire said, “a place as bad as the Great Swamp can’t support many people, and people keep pouring into the swamp to seek ancient wisdom. They either perish in cannibalism or Come and attack Loman, or go east and enter Frost Falls to fight for a living space.”

“That’s right, my lord! Conflict is inevitable!” cried Brian. “We used to think of the Dragon School as a bunch of lunatics and hopeless people, now every wizard knows that only the Dragon School can lead them to victory. “Wizards also long for arable land and a large population to support their research. The projects that wizards are now working on are completely unimaginable in the past.”

“‘Project’, you mean murder?” Madeleine rode behind, she had hazel curly hair, light green eyes, middle-aged, “You mean experimenting with living people for spells and potions? There is nothing crazier in the world than you.”

“I’m not going to argue with you about this, you can’t imagine what we’ve come up with,” Brian said. “The people of my homeland are so smart, and over time, there will be wizards who will pass on the research and sort out the years. The resulting reports and data, we will figure out a lot of answers!”

“If the wizards want to develop, they have to fight with us,” Elijah said. “As it goes on, we might as well invade the Great Swamp instead, burn the ancestral tree, and make them suffer.”

“Shut up,” Brian said annoyed.

“Are you on our side or on the swamp’s side?” Claire turned to stare at Brian.

“This has nothing to do with war,” Brian said. “It’s a personal feud, and no one can make fun of the ancestral witch tree! We grew up under its care, and saw our strength and power in its bloody bark. In the future…we’ll be dead to those who try to get their hands on it.”

“We are already in a state of immortality,” Elijah said. “The wizard killed so many people, we can’t let the Dragon School retreat, we must make them pay the price, and it is the most painful kind.”

“We don’t have to be in an endless border conflict with wizards,” Shire said. “We should merge.”

“Merge?” Brian was stunned.

“The Great Swamp is not a place for people to live,” said Shire. “Wizards should leave the swamp and live in the wide country of Citania, and go to the villages and towns, where people will live. Ask yourself, the swamp. Are you happy? Don’t be fooled by words and propaganda, wizards are human beings, and human beings are better suited to living in a civilized society.”

“We can’t live without the swamp,” Brian said. “It’s our home, where we grew up.”

“The new generation of wizards will have a very different view than you,” Shire said. “If we add the Great Swamp to Citania, young people will voluntarily leave the swamp and find a safer environment with more opportunities.”

“Maybe.” Brian frowned.

“My lord, as long as the Dragon School and the Sorcerer King are still alive, it is impossible for them to abandon their homeland,” Claire said.

“And we have to kill that thing before we can go to the Wizard King.” Elijah pointed to the distant wilderness.

Ciel raised his hand to signal people to stop.

He looked into the distance and saw a tall and burly, seven or eight meters tall giant golem, shaped like a giant, holding a large warhammer, and wearing steel armor, like a giant sculpture, but it was not slow at all, leaving a heavy burden when moving. footprint.

Even from a few miles away, they could feel the ground tremble slightly.

Tall and strong, Ciel observed the golem.

There are several wizards sitting on its back, all of them are waiting for the moment, using the burly body of the golem as a cover, once someone approaches, they will start to create powerful spells.

With the help of this extra-large metal puppet, the wizard army followed closely behind, and it was dark.

Most of them were ordinary people who were temporarily armed. Ciel felt that the uprising troops on his side were already embarrassed enough. I didn’t expect this group to be even worse. Most of them had no armor and used wooden sticks and rounded planks to protect themselves. .

“How?” Claire was eager to try, “I’ll kill them all.”

“As long as you give me an order, I will lead the attack.” Kaelin said.

“How much sacrifice do you think it would take to kill that golem?” Ciel asked.

“Thousands of men,” Kaelin said, “maybe it can’t be wrecked if it’s annihilated. We don’t have weapons to hurt it. We should have brought field ballistas.”

“It’s so advanced in this day and age that it’s almost the overlord of the battlefield,” Shire said, “but there’s still a problem.”

“What’s the problem?” Kaelin was puzzled. “Is it not powerful enough?”

“Why is it in the shape of a giant,” Ciel said, “if these precious materials are used to build several huge battle platforms, each of which can be maneuvered quickly, and each is equipped with seven or eight wizards, forming a shield for each other. Witchcraft projection platform, presumably the effect will be very amazing. Strong, fast, difficult to catch, and at the same time can unleash witchcraft of mass destruction.”

“Fortunately, you didn’t grow up among them.” Kailin sighed.

“I’m going to test the combat effectiveness of this golem,” Ciel said.

He ordered everyone to stay in the distance, and rode far away from the large golem.

Seeing Xiaerqi approaching in fury, the wizards on the golem’s back immediately raised their wands and began to cast spells.

The first thing that broke out was the sorcery related to “thunder and lightning”. Ciel looked up and saw the dark clouds rolling in the sky, and the muffled thunder exploded. Although it was a sunny day, there was thunder flashing. In the next second, a huge thunder column fell from the sky.

Fury dodged in advance, jumped quickly, and the columnar lightning struck the ground behind it, leaving huge scorch marks.

“How difficult is it?” Charles asked.

“Normal.” Furious rode forward.

Immediately afterwards, the ground in front of them began to tremble rapidly again, and the soil supported underneath suddenly became soft and hollow, and then shattered in a large area, collapsed downward, and the smoke and dust rolled up.

Zhen Fury jumped hard, jumped over the entire damaged ground, continued to circle, and slowly advanced towards the giant golem.

Both powerful spells were dodged, and when Ciel saw the expressions of the wizards on the golem’s back change, it was a man and two women. The male wizard’s expression was particularly ferocious and angry. A witch, Ciel, recognized that it was Aiya. I once investigated the tree that Varanelle transformed into, and then escaped by surrogate death, but I don’t know if I am prepared for it now.

The last witch was a complete stranger, young and beautiful.

Ciel raised the knife in front of him, and the shining red light of the knife lit up one after another. The three blades slashed towards the golem from different angles, aiming at three different wizards.

At this distance, about 500 meters away, Ciel could already hear the sound of their loud spell casting. The precise shaman script was disassembled into its simplified version, and then supplemented with auxiliary text to mobilize the power of the world. .

The effects appear soon after.

A huge rock pillar suddenly rose from the ground, blocking one of the divine blades. However, the blade broke through the rock and quickly slashed on the golem, making a loud metal tearing sound, leaving deep knife marks and submerging into it. body, up to a meter deep.

The golem swayed for a while, the precise technique connecting the body was destroyed, and the whole body was moved with a single hair, and the blue spell streamer kept escaping out, swaying, and would throw the wizard on his back at any time.

The wizards showed panic, the wizard began to reinforce the golem, and the other two witches immediately began to cast spells against the other two red sword shadows.

Aiya cast out a flaming flame, like a dragon spewing fire, and rolled towards the red sword shadow. This flame can devour and burn all energy, and even completely wiped out the phantom red sword.

The other witch was extremely talented, and released a precise technique. With a finger of the long stick in her hand, the knife shadow changed direction in the air, and quickly lowered her head and slashed to the ground, leaving only deep slash marks on the ground, and the dust splashed around. Affects the golem and the wizard on its back.

Got it!

Seeing that the sharp blade light summoned by Ciel was resolved, Aya couldn’t help but feel a burst of excitement in her heart.

“Fix it!” she urged Samiris beside her. “Let it go and kill Ciel.”

Samiris, pale, climbed to the waist of the golem to examine the hideous gap cut through by the red knife.
