Shameless Warlock

This letter was sent by Geralt's most beloved teacher, Quellas, the elder of the Ice Goddess Church.

　　 Different from the daily communication in the past, in this letter, Quellas actually sent a signal to Geralt for help!

　　 This surprised Geralt.

　　 You know, in Geralt's impression, the teacher is a very powerful magician, and may even have entered the realm of legend.

　　 What kind of difficulties did such a magician encounter, and what kind of terrible enemy he faced, so that he lost his calm judgment and chose to ask for help from such a useless disciple?

　　 Geralt once thought that this letter was artificially forged, but after carefully comparing the handwriting, he found that it was indeed written by the teacher Quellas himself.

　　 The only thing that made him a little suspicious was that the letter did not include the date of signing. The letter seemed to have been sent a month ago, and it was very fast from the Watcher Fortress to the Wildfire City.

　　 But considering the state of the teacher, Geralt didn't hesitate much and set off directly north.

　　 Black Cat and Geralt are inseparable, but Grey is the bodyguard hired by Geralt out of his life savings with a sullen face.

　　 There is no way. Although Geralt is a devout believer, he does not have much talent as a magician, otherwise he would not be thrown into a place like Wildfire City to expand his business.

　　 His combat effectiveness is almost zero, which may be a bit stronger than the black cat who is equally useless but proficient in card skills.

　　 Of course, from weak to weak, Geralt still has his brain.

　　 It is undoubtedly very risky to leave for the north at this time. After the Mudong Festival, the southern part of Wildfire City has entered the snow-covered mountains, let alone the north.

　　 From Wildfire City to the Temple of Tazar, where Master Geralt lives, although there is no need to bypass Snowfield City and Winter Pass, if you take a shortcut, you can easily freeze to death on the way.

　　 Getting lost is something that can happen at any time.

　　 When encountering a hungry monster that wakes up from hibernation, they don’t have much choice but to spread their hands.

　　 At this time, they need a strong adventurer, an experienced pathfinder... and a friendly card friend.

　　 Coincidentally, Grey was also unable to find anyone to play cards in the ruins of Wildfire City, so he agreed with Geralt's employment request and set off with the two burdens.

After trekking in the snow-capped mountains for more than two weeks, according to Geralt's rough hand-drawn map, they successfully crossed the end of the first mountain range and arrived at the mountainous area north of Snowfield City and south of the Watcher Fortress. .

　　 The road here is very difficult, that is, they are lightly loaded, otherwise any terrain can be stuck for a long time.

　　 And in these two weeks, Grey has fully realized what regret is.

　　 If he was given another chance to choose, he would rather lose money every day in the tavern in the ruins of Wildfire City than to take these two mascots to adventure in the snow-it is too cold!

　　 Although Geralt repeatedly stated that the temple of Tazarr, where the teacher lived, was approaching, Grey always believed that the servant was fooling himself.

　　 They have been delayed for two or three days in this complex mountainous area. Two days ago, Geralt had promised to arrive soon.

　　 now...hehe.

　　 "One day." Grey groaned, and said in a panic: "I can't find the path that is like spring all the year round you said, we will immediately turn around!"

　　 Geralt was silent, looking worried, but finally nodded.

　　 He has not returned to Tazar for many years, this broken temple and mysterious snow-capped mountains that carry all the memories of his youth.

　　 In the bone-chilling cold and deja vu scenes, his thinking gradually blurred——

　　 The position of the Tazar Temple in the Church of the Ice Goddess is a bit subtle. According to teacher Quellas, this is the place of origin of the church and the first temple built by the goddess in the north.

　　 But I don’t know why, after suffering the impact of a huge disaster a long time ago, only half of this temple remained in ruins. The church moved its headquarters to the south, but only a few elders remained.

　　 No one dares to underestimate the status of the Tazar Temple in the church, but not many people care about it. If it hadn't been for Quellas himself to hold many positions of power in the church, I am afraid the Ice and Snow Goddess Church would have forgotten here.

　　Quillas is a powerful magician. He has adopted many orphans in Tazar and brought them up to the church as a backup force.

　　 Geralt is one of them.

He still remembers the scene when the teacher personally sent himself away from Tazar. At that time, he was still very young. When he left the snow-capped mountains, tears of excitement filled his eyes, thinking that he would be able to serve the goddess better-and he faced him. It's cold water!

　　 The church headquarters does not welcome the teenagers of Tazar.

　　 Although they were not so obvious, Geralt felt it. It is especially obvious when assigning parishes. Most of the Tassal teenagers, like Geralt, are sent to areas where there is no improvement. They are called spreading the glory of the goddess, but they don’t get any help and support from the headquarters. .

　　 The teenagers of Tazar didn't say anything, they silently practiced the teacher's education and their vows.

　　 Geralt is such an example.

　　 From the age of eighteen to thirty-eight, he dedicated all the most precious time of his life to the small church in Wildfire City.

　　The people of the Icefields do not believe in goddesses, but this does not prevent them from coming to Geralt to eat and drink. In addition to religious faith, this single priest also has the advantage of superb cooking skills.

　　 This comes and goes. Twenty years later, the people of the Icefields still don’t believe in goddesses, but they regard Geralt as their best friend and perfect tool man——

If the child has a headache and brain fever, look for Geralt; young people have love problems, look for Geralt; the elderly have rheumatism, look for Geralt; gang disputes, look for Geralt; Geralt delivered the baby...

　　 In these years of practice, Geralt's faith has not wavered, he even interpreted his actions from another angle.

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){}　　 Although these mortals did not believe in the goddess, they at least spread the glory of the goddess.

　　 "But I did not live up to the teacher's expectations."

　　 The so-called near-hometown cowardice is roughly the same.

　　 As the path gets closer and closer, Geralt's mood is getting depressed.

In front of 　　, there was a slight change in the cobblestone path: the snow melted into snow water, and the fertile black ground was slowly exposed, and one or two stubborn grasses could even be seen.

　　 Grey’s exclamation came from not far away:

"I found it!"

　　 "This...is this Tazar?"

　　 Geralt smiled slightly.

　　He walked quickly, catching up to Grey, and climbing the small hill along the path, overlooking the small basin that often appeared in his dreams.

　　 However, in the next second, his agitated expression became a bit stiff and weird.

　　……

　　 On both sides of the hilly road, there are dense weeds growing, some of which can reach Grey's waist.

　　 He took off his water-stained cloak and jacket, and he was amazed:

　　 "There really is such a place like spring all year round."

　　 "Is this blessed by a god? But are you not a believer in the goddess of ice and snow? How can the blessing of the goddess be spring?"

　　 This question is very difficult to answer. Geralt once had such doubts. When he couldn't stand the curiosity in his mind and asked the teacher questions, the wise Quellas just laughed without saying a word.

　　 All in all, the Tazar Basin, which is like spring all year round, is unique in this icy and snowy area.

　　 In fact, among the ridges of the First Mountain Range, Tazar is not the only unique existence.

　　 The Ten Commandments Monastery next door is said to be hot, and there are lotus ponds and lotus flowers in full bloom. Unfortunately, only the most determined monk has the opportunity to see that mysterious holy place.

In the monastery of the Ten Commandments, there are even legendary monks haunting-Geralt used to take herbal medicine outside Tazar when he was young. One morning, he caught a glimpse of a figure jumping in the clouds, and finally disappeared between the clouds. .

　　 This was very shocking to him at the time, and it was only after that incident that he learned about the peculiar profession of a monk from his teacher.

　　 These thoughts flashed through Geralt's mind, but soon these good memories were washed away.

　　 He looked a little worried.

　　 Tazar changed. From the moment he stepped onto the hill to overlook, he had clearly felt the change of Tazar.

　　 The former Tassal, although deserted, has a tranquil beauty, early in the morning and at dusk.

　　 But now Geralt is showing a completely different picture.

　　 Tazar seemed to become lively.

He saw many young people wearing blue clothes shuttle among the ruins, working in full swing. They cut down some trees that had grown for hundreds of years, and did not know where to bring the huge stones, under the guidance of the engineers. Next, quickly construct.

　　 They seem to be rebuilding this temple.

　　 This makes Geralt a little uneasy.

　　 "The church headquarters suddenly noticed Tazar?"

　　 "Or did the teacher do it? Or, is this why the teacher wrote this letter?"

　　 He walked down the mountain quickly.

　　 Grey followed behind him idly, his eyes were much harsher than Geralt, and he clearly saw some problems, but he did not speak.

　　He is just a mercenary.

　　 Twenty minutes later.

　　 Geralt shuttled through the construction site that was in full swing, trying to find one or two guides, but was stopped by a handsome young man.

　　 The man was wearing sky blue clothes, his expression was very gentle, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

　　 He smiled politely:

　　 "Two, this is the holy place of the Ice Goddess Church. We are working hard to restore the old appearance of this ancient temple."

　　 "If you break in accidentally, I can show you the way out; of course, Tazar also welcomes guests. After all, it is ice and snow outside. If you are interested in the goddess' teachings, you may be able to rest here for a while."

　　 Geralt noticed that when he was talking, the people in blue around him seemed to ignore him.

　　 They are just doing their work fanatically.

　　 Their eyes are full of piety.

　　 This feeling made Geralt a little uncomfortable, of course he would not think this was wrong, he himself was a very firm and pious believer.

　　 Religious, but not fanatical.

　　 This is not a contradiction.

"This is my home. I grew up here." Geralt held back for a long time, and could only wonder: "I am Geralt of Wildfire City, and also the pastor of the church. The teacher I came back to visit. Mr. Quellas."

　　 The young man was stunned for a moment, his aqua-blue eyes flashed with a subtle sheen, and immediately showed a sorry expression:

　　 "Mr. Quellas is not in Tazar right now."

"He is in the Fortress of the Watchers. The lord of the Icewind, Lady Evelyn, invited him to preside over the festival of the cold day to celebrate that the coldest moment has passed, but the goddess's favor remains the same. If you want to visit him, Might as well go to the Fortress of Lookout."

　　 "Now Tazar, it is not very time for outsiders to enter; although you grew up here, but..."

　　 Having said that, he bowed politely and raised his head with a bright smile:

　　 "Please don't let my job dereliction of duty."

　　 Geralt was taken aback for a moment, he was a little hard to understand, but he was an honest person after all, so he could only nod his head.

　　 "I will send you away. If necessary, I can show you the way."

　　 "My name is Lansel."

　　 The young man smiled slightly and issued an order to evict the guests.

　　 Grey snorted, but without doing it, he obviously felt more abnormal.

　　 These young people in blue clothes have a problem!

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){}　　 Geralt gave a wry smile, and followed Lansel back.

　　 He never wanted to understand what happened, how did Tassal become like this, where did these people in blue clothes come from? What are they trying to do...

　　 But now, he can figure out the ins and outs only if he finds his teacher Quellas.

　　 They were sent back to the path by Lansel, who showed them the way to the fortress of the watcher, and disappeared from their sight.

　　 "These people have a problem with their faith!"

　　 Black cat's head came out of the cloak, and he vowed to say: "I smell it, it's not the original flavor of a goddess at all!"

　　 "?? Huh?" Geralt and Grey looked dumbfounded.

　　 "They have problems anyway."

　　 The black cat said solemnly: "They are not followers of the Snow Goddess!"

　　 Geralt frowned, "But they really believe in a goddess."

　　 Grey wrung out the water on the cloak smoothly, shook it, put it on again, and then said lazily:

　　 "This means that there may be a problem in a certain link."

　　 "What do you do next? Go to the Watcher's Fort? I can say it..."

　　 "Add money."

　　 Geralt smiled bitterly and nodded. In any case, since the ice wind collar is here, it is natural to make things clear.

　　 At least, make sure that the teacher is safe.

　　……

　　 Lookout Fortress, inner city, city lord’s mansion, basement of magic garden.

　　 "This is what you said [to lure the enemy into deep]?"

　　 Evelyn stood up from the ground with some wonder, and with Xu Nan's help quickly took off the pair of forbidden handcuffs.

　　 Looking at Eliot, who was unconscious on the ground, she wondered if it was necessary.

　　 This guy is only about level 11! The only problem may be the variety of escape methods.

　　 Xu Nan is also a bit embarrassed.

　　 He stared at the big goose beside Eliot, and the Celestial Goose spread out his hands innocently.

　　 Xu Nan didn't expect that his pet was so fierce that he knocked Eliot down with one punch, and has remained unconscious!

　　 Is the profession of a monk so good?

　　 He glanced at the head of the heavenly goose, ah, it is indeed bald, and sure enough, the strong are all in common.

　　 "Find a suitable cage and lock him up."

　　 "I need to interrogate him personally."

　　 Xu Nan said.

　　 Evelyn nodded, although she was still a little confused, but she was very much in line with Xu Nan's actions.

　　 In fact, all actions tonight are under Xu Nan's control.

　　 No way, the appearance of the inner ghost Qin Lele is doomed to the conspirator Eliot's miss.

　　 No matter how clever he was, he would never have thought that the small town Song he wanted to investigate had quietly followed him.

　　 Based on the information provided by Qin Lele, Xu Nan decided to use the tricks—no way, Eliot had too many ways to escape, and the bloodline ranger + the additional abilities of the Ninth Manor made his perception of danger reach a perverted level.

　　 This kind of person is the most troublesome. Once let go, it will be endless troubles.

　　 And in the capture of Eliot, the most critical part is to create a world that cuts off the surface of the shadow world. Evelyn’s magic prison fits this requirement. Eliot's strategy is indeed superb, but since the beginning of the calculation by others, the professional ability of the conspirator will naturally not be able to play.

　　 In fact, Xu Nan was very careful when making shots.

　　 He didn't even do it directly, but ordered the Celestial Goose to divert Eliot's attention, and then waited for the opportunity to attack Eliot.

　　Who knew that this boy was so weak, he was knocked down by the goose monk of the heavens.

　　 "It may also be that the Celestial Goose is too strong."

　　 Looking at Elliott, who was still unconscious and **** by five flowers, Xu Nan touched the flashing blue hair on his head. Under Evelyn's curious eyes, he could only smile in embarrassment.

　　 "This super-feeling hair is too high-profile, it doesn't fit my style, let John modify the mechanism next time."

　　 thought in his heart.

　　 "This prison can create a shadowless environment..."

　　 Evelyn folded her hands together~www.readwn.com~ quickly chanted a few bytes.

　　 Suddenly, bright white light filled every corner of Eliot's cage.

　　 "You don't have to worry about whether he can break free."

　　 "These ropes are magic items blessed by the [God of the Binder], and have the effects of both divine and magical blessings."

　　 Evelyn said.

　　 Xu Nan was shocked: "There is also the God of Binders?"

　　 Evelyn nodded: "It does exist, but it only circulates in a few secret circles in the north."

　　 "Is a **** with weak power."

　　 Xu Nan touched his nose, this is the alien version of the letter circle, right?

　　 But this is not the point.

　　 It's rare to catch Elliott, and Xu Nan will naturally not let this guy who contributed to the flames go easily.

　　 Without him, the Wildfire City incident may still be unavoidable, but this does not mean that this person's crime can be forgiven.

　　 More importantly, there are many secrets hidden in Eliot.

　　 And Xu Nan happens to be a person who is very interested in secrets.

　　 Seeing Xu Nan’s expression, Evelyn clapped her hands wittily:

　　 "I should go, since this person is here to look for you, then I will not participate in his inquiry."

　　 "Oh yes, I hope you don't have to spend too much time on interrogation."

　　 "The day after tomorrow is the cold day celebration of Bingfengling. I hope you can participate with me. I will introduce many interesting people to you."
