Chapter 264: Goodbye Roger
Master Roger. ”
Wren stood up happily.
He is grateful to the legendary Demon Hunter who helped him when he was an ordinary person, and has always regarded him as his mentor and friend, one of the most trusted people. Last year in Lonzard, Roger said goodbye without saying goodbye, and felt a little regretful at the time, thinking that it would be a long time before they would see each other again.
"I heard Zoltan say that you may have come to Hohavin, but I didn't expect you to be here. Wren stepped forward and hugged Roger, very enthusiastic.
"I've been on Mount Jubil for half a year. Roger said lightly.
His expression was still the same as always, looking a little cold, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and there was a little smile in his eyes.
Roger looked at Wren seriously and nodded approvingly, "What strength do you have now?"
"High Wizard, hehe......" Wren looked smug.
"I'm afraid it's more than that, right?" Roger was a little puzzled, "I heard that you defeated a legendary high-level death knight in Wizeland, a difference of more than a dozen levels, how did you do that?"
"I got a lot of amplification at the time, and my strength was so strong that I couldn't do it after that. If I had to meet Elon Ravennat again, I would not be his opponent and would have to flee for my life. Wren replied truthfully, without the blessing of the power of the Titans, he would be dead in a head-on battle.
Roger's face suddenly changed, "Even if that's the case, you're definitely not weaker than the Legendary Transcendent now." ”
"Pretty much. Wren said vaguely.
In fact, unless it is the kind of super genius who is not born in the world, like himself, whose strength is far beyond his own level, otherwise, the average legendary beginner-level transcendent has little power to fight back in front of him.
In its heyday, it may be possible to blow it up with one hammer!
Roger couldn't help but sigh, "When I first met you, I was still an ordinary person, but now it's less than a year, and you can already compare with the legend." ”
"I know you're incredibly talented and have a lot of potential, but your progress is still exaggerated. ”
"One year, catch up with my more than 100 years of penance......"
The legendary witcher has mixed feelings, both happy for Ren's growth, but also feels that he is under some pressure, and if he doesn't work hard, he will be eliminated. He patted Wren on the shoulder and suddenly asked, "What are you doing in Jubil Hill?"
"There's something to do on a trip to the Saine plateau, so pass through here. Wren replied.
"Hmm. ”
Roger didn't ask what it was, he thought about it for a few seconds before he said, "If you have time to stay on Mount Jubil for two days, I need your help." ”
"No problem. ”
Wren readily agreed, without a hint of hesitation.
In fact, Roger needless to say, he also guessed that Roger had something to ask for. He had just eliminated the Manfarab mercenary group in the afternoon, and the news spread, and Roger found the airship that night, so eager, it must not be just for his friends to catch up.
"Master Roger, what's the matter?"
Wren asked, inviting Roger to sit down at the table and take out the juice from the ring.
"I'm planning to hunt down a vampire count......" Roger sat down and said mid-sentence, when he suddenly saw a few decks of magic cards scattered on the table, and suddenly stopped.
His eyes were full of surprise, and he asked instead, "Wren, are you also playing cards now?"
"When I'm free, play occasionally. Wren reached out to sort out the cards, which were the rest of his own Iso's game, and threw them on the table without putting them away.
"Good, you're finally on board. Roger immediately became interested, rubbed his hands and asked, "How are your poker skills?"
Wren was a little speechless.
Didn't you just talk about hunting the vampire earl?
It sounds like Roger should have been planning for a long time, which is important to him, why did he suddenly change his mind to play cards?
"That vampire thing......"
Wren was interrupted by Roger in the middle of his words, "This matter is not in a hurry, anyway, I have already figured out his details, and I can't run, so it is better to have a game of Ten Thousand Souls cards first." ”
As he spoke, Roger took out a large stack of cards from his waist pocket, and said a little impatiently: "I have been in Jubil Hill for more than half a year, and I have swept the card masters in the city, and I am worried that there is no opponent, it is time for you to see the real technology." ”
The cards flew in his hand, like butterflies piercing flowers, dazzling.
In less than half a minute, Roger had a deck ready.
"Come on, then. ”
Wren is fearless, he now has a lot of experience in playing cards, because he is not short of money, he has collected a lot of rare cards, and he is no longer limited to the previous civilian style of play.
There is money, there is technology, there are plug-ins.
The combination of these three makes it difficult for him to lose at the poker table, and the self-proclaimed demon warlock Ding Raj, who has lost hundreds of rounds and lost his underwear, never dares to mention playing cards in front of him.
A few rounds later.
Roger's expression became very solemn, and from time to time he fell into deep thought, and finally understood that he had met an opponent of equal strength.
Wren also felt very tricky, Roger really deserved the name of "master", and he was faintly at a disadvantage.
Both got serious and focused on the game.
The Ten Thousand Souls card played game after game, and before I knew it, it was dawn, and the early morning sun shone into the airship's room, and Wren went out and told the mechanic captain of the airship not to rush to set sail, and the airship should stay in Jubil Hill for a few days.
Then, he came back and continued to play cards.
Halfway through the morning, Wren suddenly turned his head to look at the doorway, and said as he played his cards, "Ysu, come in." ”
Izu's figure walked into the room, and the smell of perfume and alcohol wafted from him.
Roger, who was thinking about how to play the cards, sniffed his nose and turned his head and said, "The Black Lily Perfume from the House of Love, you spent the night in Sasha's bed last night?"
Isu lifted her hood and looked surprised: "How do you know?"
"Hmm......" Roger said with a smile on his face that all men understand, "Sasha and I are old friends." ”
He got up and reached out and introduced himself, "Roger." ”
"Ysso. ”
Smack, the two hands were clasped together, and they shook it a few times in tacit understanding, and the witcher and the shadow assassin found a feeling of confidant in each other, which was quite like-minded.
Wren watched silently from the side, these two are real "like-minded people", no wonder they hit it off at first sight.
After getting to know each other, the game continues.
Isu also liked to play cards, and sat down to watch with great interest, and the three men sat around the table for most of the day.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Wren stopped.
Since last night, the two have won and lost each other, and it is considered a tie, and he said: "Master Roger, let's get here first today, it's time to get down to business." ”
"Okay, then play next time. ”
Roger was a little reluctant to meet a strong opponent, and he originally wanted to play for a few days and nights to get full of cards.
Wren put away the Ten Thousand Souls card and said, "Isu is a shadow assassin, if you want to hunt down the vampire count, you can ask him to join you, you can be more sure." ”
Roger nodded.
"Is there a vampire count in the town of Juppel?" Izuy was startled.
Vampires are followers of the Lord of Chaos, a monster that is difficult to find around humans, and has a very strict class division inside.
The lowest level is the Blood Servant, who has the opportunity to transform into a true vampire and possess powers that rival those of the Transcendent.
Like the Transcendents, they evolve from beginner vampires to intermediate to advanced vampires and then to legends.
Legendary vampires have knighthoods.
However, vampires' titles are somewhat different from those of human nobles, with only barons, counts, and dukes, from lowest to highest, corresponding to the primary, middle, and high ranks of the legendary.
The strength of the vampire count is equivalent to that of a legendary mid-level transcendent.
It is rumored that there is also a vampire prince comparable to the Holy Soul level.
In fact, in most cases, the strength of the vampire count is higher than that of the legendary mid-level transcendents, they not only have great strength, speed, all kinds of strange methods, but also master many bloodline spells, and are real spellcasters!
Bloodline spells originate from the Lord of Chaos, and the casting principle is self-contained, which is very different from ordinary spells, and it is difficult to guard against.
Therefore, none of the legendary vampires are easy to mess with.
Moreover, they are never alone, because of the strict class, each vampire nobleman has a large number of low-level vampires as vassals.
The appearance of a vampire count means that there are a large number of vampires nearby.
Roger nodded and said: "The mountain city of Jubile has a romantic atmosphere and lax defense, as early as more than a hundred years ago, there were many vampires lurking, on the surface it looks glamorous, but in fact, there are too many filthy things in the secret, and there are many vampires lurking, and this city has become their largest lair in the main material world. ”
"I surmise that there are at least three vampire counts on Mount Jubil, most likely, and one vampire duke. ”
Roger touched his chin and thought.
"With so many monsters, won't the Storm Queen clean them up?" Isu couldn't believe it.
"These vampires don't want to expose and ruin their habitat, so on Mount Jubil, they behave in moderation and never make much noise. Roger whispered, "Besides, the Storm Queen seems to have been busy with other things in recent years. ”
He suddenly sneered, "But it's also beneficial. ”
"Mount Jubil is a favorite place for witchers, and there are so many vampires that give young witchers the opportunity to train and grow. ”
"In recent decades, the various schools of witchers have sent young people to Mount Jubil for training. ”
Wren couldn't help but be stunned.
The Witcher used Mount Jubile as a place to farm monsters and level up.
No wonder when I entered the city yesterday, I saw several demon hunters, swaggering down the street with double swords on their backs, for fear that others would not be able to guess their identities, and they were probably using themselves as bait to catch vampires.
"Master Roger, what's the matter with that vampire count?" Wren asked.
"Its ostensible identity is that of a winemaker, and its nest is in a vineyard not far from the southern suburbs of the city, which I started exploring more than ten years ago, without doing anything, in order to wait for a better time. ”
There was a hint of anticipation in Roger's words, "Killing this vampire count and devouring its heart will allow me to break through the bottleneck and enter the soul ascension, ready for the fifth soul transformation." ”
"You're going to be promoted to the middle rank of the legend?" Wren's eyes lit up.
"Yes. Roger nodded slightly.
The Witcher can devour the organs on the monster's body to improve his strength, and the more he eats, the faster he will improve, so the Witcher always can't stop and look around for monsters.
Wren was sincerely happy for Roger, and he must help with this favor.
Isu was also a little envious, he was still far from the middle level of the legend.
He looked at Wren, with this guy involved, plus Roger and himself, it should be no problem to kill a vampire, so he asked, "How are you going to do it?"
"Alchemy bombs, scrolls, potions, I've got them all ready. ”
Roger was confident, "Find the right time to go straight into its lair to prevent it from escaping or sending a signal for help to other vampires, don't worry about the rest." He paused and said, "In addition to you, I have hired two other helpers. ”
"I'm going to take you to meet now and get acquainted with each other. ”
"Good. Wren readily agreed.
The more manpower, the better, the greater the chance of success, and the lower the danger, and the strength of the helpers hired by Roger will definitely not be too bad.
He thought about it for a moment and decided not to bring the Ultramarines into the hunt.
Rambo's spear poses little threat to the vampire count, but instead puts the Ultramarines in danger, and even a legendary warrior like Sicarius, with a single fighting style and a lack of adequate means, can't help much.
Moreover, the sound of the machine gun is too loud, which is not conducive to combat concealment, which may cause unnecessary trouble.
The trio left the airship and entered the city.
Roger led the way over the mountain town to the top of a hill in the south of the city.
This is a wealthy area, with single-family houses nestled in the shade of trees, manicured flower beds on the streets, and the Storm Queen's Floating City of Aglaon when you look up.
At the end of a street at the top of the hill, Roger skillfully pushed open the gate and entered.
A small and delicate garden came into view, with a large tree in the middle of the courtyard, under which there were chaise longues, desks, and fruit snacks on the table, which were comfortably furnished and pleasantly described, and a faint fragrance blew in the wind, indicating that the owner of the place was a woman.
Next to the garden is a three-storey residence.
Listening to the sound below, the wooden window on the third floor was pushed outward, and a beautiful face poked out, and he happily shouted: "Roger, you are back......"
She had long fiery red hair, tied in knots at the back of her head, a delicate hollow forehead band on her head, two small braids hanging down the sides of her cheeks, bright eyes, and a few faint freckles on her face, which not only did not spoil her beauty, but added a bit of playfulness and loveliness.
This red-haired beauty is wearing a pale green robe at home, but she can't hide her beautiful body curves.
She looked at Roger with love in her eyes, like a young girl.
Wren sighed secretly, the witcher is really a blessing.
The Eye of the Soul could see that this beautiful lady possessed great strength, she was a legendary warlock who fused with the blood of the fire element!
Before Roger could reply, a young man appeared next to the sorceress, standing side by side with her, and seemed to be very close.
"Uh......" Wren was stunned, what's the situation?
