Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf
Chapter 316 The Wolf School is finished!
"What?!!"
Except for the young noble Naxi who looked at the visitor blankly, he seemed to have no idea why everyone reacted so much to the departure of the Wolf School.
Raphael and Gil exclaimed almost at the same time.
"Your Excellency Senni, is the news reliable?" Duke Donetto tightened his grip on the dark crutch.
The young and handsome wizard named Sunny nodded heavily:
"I just received the news from Elland in the morning. When Mason awarded a knighthood to a demon hunter last week, he invited the Wolf School to move to Elland."
"What's the reaction of the Wolf School?" Gil, the elder nobleman, leaned forward with his hands on the long table and asked anxiously.
"Not sure yet." Sunny shook his head.
Raphael's expression softened slightly after hearing this, but then he thought of something and became serious again. He looked at Duke Donetto and continued:
"Although the Wolf School has not responded yet, judging from the ostracism that witchers have suffered in Kaedwen in recent years, the situation is not optimistic."
"And we all know what just happened in Elland."
"Now they need demon hunters. Even if the Wolf School refuses once, it will be difficult not to be tempted under the pressure."
Gil also added: "Don't forget that the high priest of Meriteri also showed an extraordinary closeness to the witcher."
Just say it.
The entire study fell into silence.
Except for the young nobleman Naxi, who was fidgeting with the white silk scarf on his chest at a loss, everyone looked solemn and lowered their heads to think hard about this countermeasure.
"Wolf... shouldn't it be a good thing that the Wolf School has left?" Naxi turned his head to look at Raphael and whispered softly, "You...we secretly spread those slanderous rumors and writings, isn't it to drive them away?"
"Count Naxi," before Raphael could answer, Jill spoke first, almost in a serious manner, "The wolf school is not the cat school. What good will it do to us to drive away such a demon hunter?"
Naxi was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the wizard Sunny, who had an exquisite face but was probably older than his dead grandfather, and thought:
"Isn't it because wizards and witchers are naturally at odds with each other, so witchers often steal the wizard's business?"
At this time, Sunny seemed to feel his gaze, and seemed to read his thoughts. He raised his head and glanced at him with disdain. Naxi was shocked to think of the rumors of wizards reading minds and smiled apologetically.
But he found that Sonny just glanced at him, didn't say anything, didn't react at all, and continued to lower his head in thought.
On the contrary, it made Naxi, who was ignored and thought to be the core of the crowd, a little embarrassed.
Fortunately at this time.
"We are united for the future of this country," Gill said in a solemn voice. "In this era when monsters are still raging, and even recently, Ben Ad and Elland have shown their resurgence, Hunter The existence of the devil is necessary and indispensable to Kaedwen."
Naxi was startled when he heard this: "Then why..."
"Because they are demon hunters of the Wolf School, not our demon hunters." Raphael frowned and interrupted Gil's tirade before he could speak.
"Okay, I don't have time to take care of the child now. If you have any questions, you can teach him in private." Sunny waved his hand impatiently.
The white silk scarf was clenched tightly at this moment, and Naxi's face suddenly became ugly.
In response, Raphael patted his shoulder, and Gil gave him an apologetic look, then continued thinking.
The study fell silent again.
After a long time.
"Moving a school is not a trivial matter. Even if Grandmaster Soi prepares now, it will take at least two or three years..." Gill suddenly said.
"Don't think so," Raphael shook his head. "It may take two or three years to completely move, but as long as it is decided, it will definitely be moved in batches. By then, the things we want may not be there. Where is it?”
"Therefore..." He looked up at Duke Donetto and said forcefully: "We must take action now!"
Duke Donetto shook his staff with a serious face and looked at Gil.
Gil hesitated for a few seconds and did not refute. He nodded and agreed with Raphael's idea.
"But what should we do? Follow the original plan?" Raphael glanced at the wizard Sunny, who had been thinking with his head lowered. "The Wolf School is not easy to provoke, especially after the failure of Haxor's plan..."
"I have heard the name Dragon Slayer since I was a child."
"Kaer Morhen is located in the steep Blue Mountains. The city is fortified and the towers are high."
"Now Aedian has occupied the Ban Green Fortress on the south bank of the Pontar River, which involves a large number of our elite forces. We must also retain a considerable reserve force. It will be difficult to squeeze out enough force..."
"Don't accidentally get us involved."
"Ben Green is not far from Ade Kalai."
Everyone was silent for a while after hearing this.
"Your Excellency Sunny..." the young nobleman Naxi suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's attention, "I heard that this war was started by Ben Ade in order to divert the attention of the new king."
"Now that Lado has too much to worry about, can we stop the war?"
"Tsk~" Sunny sneered, "Kid, what do you think of war? Is it a wooden villain you are playing with? Just wave the white silk scarf and it will start when you want to fight, and it will stop when you say to stop?"
Child! ! !
When Naxi heard this, his face turned red instantly.
The hand holding the white silk scarf on her chest lowered and raised unnaturally, holding her hands tightly.
Raphael quickly tugged on Naxi's clothes to signal him to shut up.
Jill also said slowly at this moment:
"What Count Naxi said is not completely unreasonable. Can the magic advisor of Vengerberg influence the logistics of the Aedirian army?"
Sunny glanced at the aggrieved Naxi coldly, but did not hold on to him:
"No need to think about solving it from Aden."
"Haxor has done too much in the past, and everyone from nobles to commoners in Aedirn has gone crazy."
"Not to mention whether Fritz can affect logistics, I haven't received a carrier pigeon from Vengerberg in nearly two months."
Just say it.
The entire study fell into dead silence again.
The impact of Haxor's death was too great.
It not only brought unprecedented possibilities, but also almost completely disrupted all their arrangements.
"What is that old guy Hen Gedimidis thinking now?" The old man who sat back in the high-backed chair raised his head and asked, "It's obviously something that both parties can benefit from..."
"No!"
"Once this is done, Ben Ad and himself will get even more!"
"He's already old." Sunny shook his head, "It's the limit of letting him watch without intervening."
"And because of the disappearance of Thomas Moreu and Macao, the dean is very angry. Our department has been heavily targeted recently."
"This time I just made an excuse to find clues about Thomas Moreu before I could leave. I have to leave soon..."
"Thomas Moreu?" Raphael asked doubtfully, "Isn't he one of ours? Why does Mr. Senni sound like he has given up on him?"
"He's just a useful mad dog," Sunny sneered. "Would you be friends with a mad dog and discuss important matters?"
"And how can I possibly find someone who the dean and the divination master Shaquille can't find even with Ban Ad's search?"
After a pause, Sunny suppressed his frivolous smile and said expressionlessly:
"We have to prepare for war, and we have to guard against the new king who is going crazy. Finally, we have to deal with the dean's questioning and investigate the disappearance of Thomas Moreu and Macao..."
"If we had followed the original plan, we wouldn't have had many people here, or even less than one-fifth of the planned number."
One fifth...
Raphael couldn't help but shook his head inwardly when he heard this. The original plan only included six wizards in total.
"Based on this, it's definitely impossible to attack Kaer Morhen as planned." Gil said with a sore voice and concluded.
"Think of something better," Raphael suddenly smiled, "Maybe it's a good thing that we can't attack by force..."
"How do you say that?" Jill asked curiously.
"Because Vesemir and his apprentice named Blue Death - I don't know what the strange name is -, the evaluation of the witcher by the neutral nobles in the country will definitely change after the Elland disaster is exposed. improved.”
Raphael shrugged: "At least we don't have to climb up Kaer Morhen like thieves, hiding our disguises, and fearing the infamy of persecuting demon-slaying heroes, right?"
Jill was furious at this careless tone and scolded loudly: "Raphael, we are talking about business!"
"Isn't what I said serious?"
"you!"
"Okay!" Seeing that the two of them were starting to quarrel again, Duke Donetto hit the ground hard with his cane to make them stop.
Raphael and Jill then controlled their emotions and sat down angrily.
"So there's nothing we can do."
This is an affirmation rather than a question.
And although the wizard known as Sonny had an expressionless face, dissatisfaction and anger could be clearly heard in his tone.
To this.
Raphael and Jill can understand.
I ran all the way here, but nothing came of it. No matter how good my personality is, I can't feel calm.
Besides, Sonny's temper is notoriously bad.
Raphael and Jill looked at each other quietly.
"It's not necessarily that nothing can be done, it's just that when needed..."
Raphael saw that Sunny's face was getting darker and darker, and the satin curtain behind him moved automatically without any wind, so he decisively shut up.
But even though the study became quiet, the windless automatic curtains still didn't stop.
Gradually, even the candlelight in the crystal cover began to shake violently and unsteadily.
The shadows on the surrounding walls spread their teeth and claws, looking for people to eat.
Naxi's eyes widened in horror, and she clutched the white silk scarf tightly, as if grasping a life-saving straw.
The suffocating pressure made everyone on the long table look paler and paler, and their breathing became rapid.
"There is a way."
A hoarse old sigh came from the top of the long table, and the suffocating pressure suddenly disappeared.
"What can I do?"
"Just because you can't attack by force doesn't mean you can't weaken it." The old man sat on his high back, holding a dark cane with both hands. "Whether it is the wolf school or the cat school, a demon hunter is a demon hunter..."
"People who trade their lives for money are easy to deal with."
"How to deal with it?" the wizard asked with interest.
The old man was silent for a few seconds, then sighed and arranged:
"Raphael!"
The middle-aged nobleman stood up.
"In the past few days, we have sorted out the monsters that have appeared in several forces and selected some that are difficult to deal with..." The old man said slowly, "Hide the information and increase the bounty. As for how to control it specifically, I believe you can Do it well.”
"Don't worry, Lord Donetto." Raphael accepted the order.
"Is that okay, Sir Sunny?" The old man turned his head and looked at the robed wizard.
"Good idea, you are worthy of being a cunning rat..." Sonny laughed.
"You..."
Jill's face flushed with anger when he heard the wizard's address. He stood up suddenly and sat down slowly under the calm gaze of the old man Gubo.
Sonny didn't seem to care about the offense of the older nobles. He laughed twice:
"Since you have come up with a solution, I won't bother you anymore."
"Thomas Moreau seems to have appeared in the royal city of Ad Kalai. I have to check it out."
"Do you need me to find someone to lead the way?" The old man asked calmly.
"No..." Sonny raised his eyebrows, "When Rado was young, I held him in my arms. I believe he will not refuse my coming."
"...aen'drean cáemm pont..."
A mysterious spell sounded.
"Bang~"
The rough orange portal tore the space again.
The howling wind caused by it seemed to be stronger than the first time.
The golden candlesticks fixed on the ground closest to the portal were bent, and the candlelight went out instantly.
The people on the long table were also in this strong wind, and they had to hold on to the large and heavy oak long table in a panic.
After a long time.
The strong wind from the void disappeared.
The wizard Sonny also disappeared in the study.
"Bang~"
The bent golden candlestick fell and hit the ground.
The crystal lampshade was shattered all over the floor.
"These damn wizards, they should be exterminated more than the demon hunters!" Jill combed his gray beard and cursed.
"Aren't all wizards like this?" The middle-aged noble Raphael didn't care much. "It's not the first time that he has shown his self-esteem."
"Jill!" The old man suddenly said.
The older noble stood up immediately.
"Find an opportunity to let Rado know the news of the Wolf School. Our king can't be closed to the outside world." The old duke stroked the smooth black head of the staff with his old hands.
"Yes, Lord Donato!" Jill accepted the order.
"Lord Donato, after finding the right monster, should we wait a while before making arrangements..." Rafi asked hesitantly.
"No need." The old man shook his head gently, "Since we have done it, we should not leave any handle for it, and this matter is also very important to us."
"But how many demon hunters died and how many were injured and disabled because of this, remember to have someone secretly count them."
"If the effect is good, the original plan does not necessarily have to be scrapped."
"Yes, Lord Donato." Raphael said respectfully.
"And..." The old man closed his eyes and thought for a while, and then reminded, "Don't limit yourself to Kaedwen, it is difficult to contact Aedirn, but there is no war between Redania, Temeria and the Hengfors Alliance."
Raphael nodded.
"Also, be more secretive."
"Lord Donato, please rest assured." Raphael nodded in response.
Seeing the serious faces of the three people at the long table, the old man suddenly smiled gently:
"Don't worry too much, we are the masters of this world!"
Then everyone's expression eased a little.
At this time.
The young noble Nasi couldn't help asking:
"Isn't Lord Donato's idea good?"
"I can't imagine how many witchers from the Wolf School can return to Kaer Morhen in the severe winter..."
"Why do you look so reluctant?"
In response.
Donato remained silent.
After Raphael and Jill looked at each other, they just shook their heads and sighed.
No words were said.
