Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf
Chapter 171 How much does a wolf head cost?
dark……
Deep and silent darkness, like the deep sea.
He felt like he was sinking and sinking, as if he was about to sink into the deepest part of this lightless world.
Every drop of blood, every muscle, and every bone is pulling him down, as if calling the traveler to return home.
But he couldn't control his body at all, and couldn't even open his eyes, as if he was trapped in a nightmare and couldn't wake up from his deep sleep.
He even forgot how he came to this world.
【yes……】
【Why did I come here? 】
An idea flashed through my mind like a match lighting up a candle.
The soul imprisoned in darkness suddenly stopped sinking, like a ship anchored in the deep sea, neither forward nor backward, neither up nor down.
At this time.
"Click~"
Something seemed to crack in the silence.
A warm white light flashed.
Kaer Morhen, Vera, Vesemir, Xius...
Pictures appeared before his eyes, and every time they appeared, he subconsciously and silently called out their names.
Then……
He began to rise.
[No...no...]
He sensed something was wrong.
[My mind shouldn’t be so empty...]
The next moment.
Two bright links suddenly appeared, and the two joyful emotions brought about by the links made his brain suddenly clear.
The speed of rising suddenly accelerated, as if a rope was dragging him, pulling him.
At a certain moment, he seemed to wake up from a deep sleep and suddenly remembered everything.
[I'm not fighting with the rocks... no... I'm dodging the rock trolls coming at me from the rocks? 】
[Why did you come here suddenly? Where is this? 】
The next second.
"Ang~"
A whale call came from behind, seeming to be holding back but more of an anger.
The darkness like the deep sea around him also surged with the sound of whale calls, and huge pressure came from the front, trying to push him into the abyss again.
【What's going on? 】
Aylin instinctively struggled to turn around and open his eyes, and then his body immediately froze.
A blood-red eye was looking at him.
This eye was so huge that it even exceeded the size of the city of Ben Ad, and the tiny demon hunter felt that he could touch its pupils with his hand.
【Damn! 】
[What kind of monster is this? 】
The unspeakable fear of the huge thing made him struggle and shrink back, and it was difficult for him to feel any resistance from the bottom of his heart.
But the darkness behind him was oppressive, forcing him to sink continuously, making it difficult for him to resist.
"Crack!"
There was another crisp sound.
A blinding white light lit up in the darkness.
A beam of light, only as thick as an index finger, shot out from Aylin's chest and shot directly into the huge blood-red pupil.
Seeing this scene, Ai Lin suddenly felt as tragic as a cricket shaking a tree.
Until the next second.
The beam focuses on the giant eye.
The pressure behind Aylin suddenly disappeared, followed by his body moving away from the giant eye at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Boom!"
The huge sound was deafening.
Aylin instinctively closed his eyes. After a moment of trance, a female voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
Girls, women, old women.
The ageless timbre brings an indescribable sense of sublimity and holiness.
She said:
"...Son of Miracle...Elland...quickly..."
[Where in Elland? 】
Aylin quickly asked in his mind.
She seemed to smile and said:
"...When you wake up...you will know..."
Aylin wanted to ask again.
At this time.
He suddenly felt himself emerging from the water.
The next moment.
Severe pain hit, every nerve seemed to be twitching violently, and there was pain everywhere in his body.
"ah!"
The pain that he had never felt before seemed to touch his soul, making him scream involuntarily.
"Aelin, how are you?"
A cold and excited female voice came from not far away.
Followed by a cold wet cloth, wiping his face, neck, and body.
Fighting back his headache, Aylin opened his eyes.
The blurred vision gradually became clear...
Wooden beams, thatched roofs, and hanging blue decorative flowers...
The fragrance of herbs fills the air, and soft light shines in from the window.
Um?
Shouldn't I be under Viscount Hudson's abandoned mine?
Where is this?
"this……"
The hoarse voice cuts the throat.
After saying just one word, Aelin was stopped by the burning pain in his tonsils.
The next second.
His neck was gently lifted, and the touch of wood appeared on his lips.
Aylin opened his mouth instinctively, like a thirsty traveler in the desert, eager to drink the sweet water.
"GuluGulu~"
Before the fun was over, the wooden cup moved away.
"Aunt Asha has warned you that your fever has just subsided and you are injured, so you can only drink so much water." The woman said softly.
Who is Aunt Asha?
besides……
Who is you?
Aylin turned his head and looked at the man.
Her skin is as white as snow and as smooth as satin, and her eyes are as clear as the purest sapphires.
The long dark golden hair hangs down on the side of the demon hunter's ears, and a pair of small, pointed pink ears are exposed from the thick hair.
As his hair swayed, he smelled the scent of white roses mixed with fir wood.
Such a beautiful person...an elf girl.
She is worthy of being called "Valley Daisy", the most beautiful woman in the world recognized by even the sorceress.
Ailin exclaimed.
Although this was the first time he saw Francesca's face under the mask, he recognized her the first time he saw her blue eyes.
"Where is this place?"
After drinking a mouthful of water, Ailin's voice was still hoarse, but he could speak normally.
The elf girl frowned slightly, and seemed to be a little embarrassed for some reason.
"Hey! Is the little guy awake?"
A loud voice came from the door.
He looked in the direction of the sound, and a fat middle-aged woman walked in from the door with a smile.
With a change of mind, Ailin knew that this was probably Aunt Asha mentioned by Francesca.
Aunt Asha walked in with a bowl of black liquid, her hands trembling slightly. Seeing Ailin stand up, she walked over calmly,
"Little guy, you are worried about your sister."
Sister?
Ailin couldn't help but look at Francesca.
Francesca's cheeks turned pink, and she tilted her head to look away.
"... decoct medicine, change medicine, feed medicine, scrub the body, apply ointment..." Aunt Asha nagging as she walked, "Although they were clumsy at the beginning, at least they learned seriously and quickly..."
"Hey, if those little crazy kids in my family could be as quiet and take care of their families as Francesca..."
Quiet and quiet?
Quiet?
Are you serious?
And...
All the bandages on my body were changed by this reckless elf?
Aelin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and subconsciously glanced at the clean bandages all over his body, and looked at Francesca in surprise.
A fiery blush burned on her cheeks, and Francesca twisted her gray linen skirt with her hands and lowered her head.
Asha nagging, handed the bowl of potion to Francesca: "If it weren't for your sister these few days..."
These few days?
Ailin was stunned. After drinking the bitter medicine, he quickly asked in a hoarse voice:
"How many days have I stayed here?"
"Three days." Aunt Asha thought he was worried about his injuries. After taking the wooden bowl with trembling hands, she said:
"Don't worry, little guy. Aunt Asha has learned herbs and medical skills in the Temple of Meliteli in Elland. You can get out of bed in two weeks with such injuries."
"Don't worry about the medicine expenses. The owner here is kind-hearted. You can stay as long as you want."
"Edney, help your brother change the medicine. I have to go to the castle to see the lady's condition."
As she said, Aunt Asha walked out of the house with the bowl.
Three days?
Three days have passed!
What about the commission? How is the human couple? Have the king and the wizard found them?
And Vesemir...
Vesemir and Hughes are still waiting for me at the inn. They must be very anxious if I don't go back for such a long time...
When Ailin heard that three days had passed, he was completely dumbfounded.
In his groggy mind, all kinds of questions came one after another, making his brain hurt as if it was split apart.
"Erin, I'll change your bandages." Francesca said softly.
"Wait!" Erin's voice was hoarse, and he looked at the leather armor and clothes placed beside the bed, and said, "Feed me the bottle of emerald green potion in my reagent bag."
Francesca's hands paused, and after looking at Erin, she obediently took out "Green Sigh" from the reagent bag.
After the cold liquid entered his throat, Erin glanced at Francesca.
The future queen of the elves looked about the same size as him at this time, both of them were about fourteen or fifteen years old.
Thinking about the spoiled "princess" who had been clumsily taking care of him in a coma these days, Erin's anger in his heart suddenly dissipated a lot.
Why would he, an adult, be angry with a child?
Although the child might be older than his two lives combined.
"Don't worry if I have any abnormalities later, they are all normal effects." Erin reminded in a gentle voice.
Francesca, who thought she would be blamed, was stunned for a moment when she heard the witcher's gentle voice, and nodded obediently.
Half a minute later.
The intense pain came as expected, as if the burning lava spread throughout every corner of his body.
Muscles, bones, nerves...
Every part was burning and growing.
Aylin's forehead was bulging with blue veins in pain, and he bit the gray linen quilt tightly in his mouth with a ferocious look, and his whole body was shaking constantly.
If he hadn't seen how Bonte took the potion, he would have screamed at this time.
Francesca looked at this scene, frowning, twisting her hands together, standing up and sitting down several times, as if there were needles in the seat.
About ten minutes later.
"Huh~"
After spitting out the linen quilt, Aylin let out a long breath.
"Do you... do you still need to change the medicine?" Francesca's cautious voice sounded.
Looking at the "Valley Daisy" whose forehead was covered with as much sweat as his, Ailin shook his head:
"No need..."
Before he finished speaking, Ailin refused Francesca's help, put on his shoes, and stood on the ground.
"I don't think I need to change the dressing again!"
Francesca was stunned.
After taking care of the demon hunter for three days and changing his dressing every day, she knew Ailin's injuries best. There were bruises all over his body and as many as seven fractures.
Asha said he could get out of bed in two weeks, but it would take at least a month to move freely.
What kind of magic potion is this?
One bottle can completely restore the body!
Francesca lowered her head and pondered.
Emerald green, the gorgeous medicine body is like the new buds in early spring...
The effect of almost complete restoration...
She seemed to have some impression.
"Francesca, where is this place? Aren't we in the cave?" Alin's voice interrupted her thoughts.
The demon hunter tore off the bandages on his body, wiped his body clean, put on the leather armor that was severely broken, and tied the sword bag.
Then he walked out of the house while asking questions.
"Squeak~"
The wooden door of the house was pushed open by the demon hunter.
Francesca's answer with a strange tone also came from behind at this moment.
"Hundred Fruit Garden."
"Asha said this is the Hundred Fruit Garden."
...
Yade Town.
Earl Burns's manor.
"Bang!"
The meat and bones were thrown into the plate violently, making a loud noise.
"What!"
"You said that the soldiers in the guard station suffered heavy casualties?"
The furious voice of King Kaedwen was deafening.
The knight in the guard armor knelt on one knee in front of the table, trembling under the king's anger and said:
"The night before yesterday, two thieves sneaked into the camp with bad intentions. After being discovered by the guards, they fled to the abandoned mine deep in the camp..."
"... Sir Lai... After receiving the report, he immediately took ten king's guards and more than 40 elite guards to the mine to capture the thieves... The result... The result..."
"What was the result?" Haxo roared, "The result was that the whole army was wiped out?"
The frightened knight's forehead was sweating, and he cursed in his heart The deputy commander who had arranged for him to report the damage had to make things difficult for him, but under the king's fierce gaze, he could only continue:
"As a result... the team led by Sir Light happened to encounter a group of angry rock trolls..."
Swallowing his saliva, the knight reported the outcome:
"Sir Light and ten knights embarked on the road of glory, and the other guards died tragically in the cave."
"The specific situation was not known until the deputy commander found out that something was wrong and sent five scouts, and three of them died... died."
"Bang!"
The silver basin filled with barbecue was thrown directly to the ground.
The bloody sauce splashed on the knight's face, making him lower his head in fear.
"Then why did you report to me now?"
"It's been the third day? Is the guard station so far from here?"
The king's voice became low, but it made the knight even more afraid.
He was an old man in the guards, and he knew that the king at this time was a madman who could do anything.
So he didn't dare to perfunctorily answer Haxo according to the deputy leader's words, and said truthfully:
"Deputy...deputy leader, I felt...I felt that I couldn't have no results, so I came to report."
"The next day, thirty knights, one hundred guards, and two wizards with the army..."
"What was the result?"
Haxo interrupted with a suppressed angry voice, listening to the roar of a lion.
"The result...the result was that three knights died, seventy-six guards, eleven knights were seriously injured, and two wizards with the army fled in fear...fleet."
The knight lowered his head even more.
"Okay, okay, just because of two little thieves, fourteen knights died and one hundred elite soldiers!"
Sitting back in his seat with a plop, Haxo frowned and didn't ask why he came to report now.
The mess was so big, so many noble boys died, his dear brother, the deputy leader of the king's guards, must have time to use the relationship of relatives to smooth things over...
Damn waste!
Don't do anything, can't even guard the house!
"Dong~Dong~"
The room was completely silent, with only Haxo's index finger tapping the tabletop.
A few seconds later, he suddenly thought of something and his eyes lit up, then he tilted his head and shouted:
"Wally!"
"Go ask Grandmaster Soi to come."
The attendant named Wally bowed and said yes, and left the room.
"Dart!"
Haxo stroked the oak tabletop with his right palm, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then ordered:
"Go ask the wild cats how the commission was completed, and then ask..."
"How much is a wolf head?"
