Arka Continent.

Light alternates with darkness, civilization and barbarism coexist.

After the bell of the new era rings, the remnants of the old era are still stubbornly rooted in this land.

While science and technology are advancing day by day, horrors that are unimaginable to ordinary people are also spreading in the shadows, and only demon hunters among humans can fight against them.

……

Many complicated memories emerged, and then they were absorbed by Fang Yuan in different categories.

I don't know how long it took, but his eyelids opened and he woke up.

As far as the eye can see, there is a pale yellow and mildew-stained ceiling, and the bedding wrapped around it smells of wine, but it is still soft and warm.

For this body, which has fallen asleep with a big sword on the hard ground many times, it is undoubtedly heaven.

The floor shook faintly, and a lot of noise came from the bar in front.

"Axe Bar ......"

It's a meeting point for witchers in the area, and it also offers other services, and the smell of rye wine and grilled sausages is still very familiar.

"Hulk! Was this body once named? ”

Fang Yuan was a little speechless: "If it comes with the ability to transform into a giant, it will be a perfect match......

At this time, he lowered his head slightly, and his eyes saw the gauze tied to his chest, and even after applying medicine, a strange feeling of pain and conflict still came.

"This time...... It's really unlucky......"

He didn't move, just lay there, sorting out the memories of this body, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

On this continent of Arka, the civilization is roughly equivalent to the period of the first industrial revolution, but there is no unified empire, and the whole continent is fragmented, divided into many kingdoms and federations, and there are three chaotic regions.

Chaos and fighting, war and famine are constantly invading the already fragile human life.

And beneath the chaos on the surface, there is an even deeper horror - the Night Clan!

They are a general term for strange species, with terrifying appearances, strange abilities, or hidden among humans, or secluded in the wilderness, but cruel and chaotic by nature, and like to hunt humans for food.

The so-called demon is the highest level of the Night Family.

According to legend, the first demon in the world is from hell, it is the strongest mother of reproduction, and a series of clans were born, and the dark clans on the continent at this time are its descendants.

In ancient times, the Children of Darkness even ruled entire continents, building powerful empires that drove the Lamb-like humans with brutality and fear.

Until the appearance of the first demon hunter, it finally brought hope to the human world.

Through generations of sacrifices, battles, and tears, the empire of the Dark Sons finally collapsed, and the human survivors ushered in liberation and rebirth.

But the forces of darkness have not been extinguished.

In particular, the demons, the culmination of the children of darkness, are coveting the nascent society after silently licking their wounds.

"I vow that I will defend the Holy Light with the sword in my hand!"

"I swear that I will follow the Seven Commandments of the Demon Hunter and hunt monsters forever!"

"I swear that I will be firm in my will and will never be deceived ......"

……

At the end of the memory, there is a solemn ceremony.

A slightly immature novice witcher, in the first operation he participated in after taking the oath, because he was too excited, he was directly seriously injured by a monster and died......

Of course, this last point was only clear to Fang Yuan, after all, he had already come back to life with the help of the other party's body.

"The Mother of Reproduction? Demon? Heir of Darkness...... Interesting! ”

Thinking of this information, the corners of Fang Yuan's mouth couldn't help but show a smile.

This world has also been affected by the Heart Demon Realm, and if there is no accident, the Mother of Reproduction definitely has a lot to do with the Heart Demon Realm.

Even, these monsters may be another form of demon spirit!

"Just ......"

He looked at his chest and frowned again.

There, the two forces were entrenched, constantly clashing, and even making it difficult for him to move.

"This should be the power left over from the previous monster, and the conflict with its own vitality......

Fang Yuan thought about the training method of the demon hunter, I have to say, it is quite primitive, staying at the level of physical body and skill, and must rely on various equipment to fight with monsters.

"Also, by drinking holy water, the activity of the body's cells is increased...... If you have the chance, you can go and see the production process......"

He vaguely felt that something was wrong.

If the witchers only had these powers, how could they overthrow the ancient Dark Empire? Fighting demons?

"At the end of the day, this Hulk is just a witcher rookie after all...... It's normal to not know the inside story, and you have to investigate it yourself, of course, the most important thing is to recover as soon as possible......"

Fang Yuan closed his eyes, and a vague curtain of light suddenly appeared in the darkness:

Name: Hulk (Fang Yuan)

Fine: 1.2 (110)

Gas: 0.7 (100)

God: 5.0 (120)

Class: Witcher

Condition: Weak

Specialty: Medical Technique [Level 3], Implant Technique [Level 6] (Full Level), Burning Eyes [Level 3], Sealed Body [Ultimate Form]"

"It's this feeling again, suppressed by the higher forces of the Inner Demon Realm...... It's like being in the world of purple eyes! ”

Fang Yuan opened his eyes: "I need a little time, and there are still potions, to treat the injuries in my body!" ”

With his medical skills, he is still sure that he will be cured.

Moreover, the entrenched monster power made him a little interested in research.

Squeak!

At this moment, the door to the room was opened, and a tall figure came in with a tray: "Hulk...... Are you awake? ”

"Yes, Uncle Jock, did you save me?"

Fang Yuan disguised himself as Hulk, and a sincere sense of gratitude appeared on his face.

"You just fainted, and I carried you back from the battlefield...... Let's eat something first! ”

Jock is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a full beard, messy orange hair, and heavy dark circles and bags around his eyes.

Wen Yan smiled reluctantly and put the tray down, and on top was the fragrant matsutake mushroom soup, buttered bread, and grilled sausages.

"Thank you!"

Fang Yuan raised a hand in pain, picked up the fork and ate slowly.

Seeing his 'stubborn' appearance, old Jock wanted to speak and stopped.

"What's wrong?"

"Hulk...... Have you ever thought about retiring? Uncle Jock reluctantly said, "It just so happens that the Axe Bar still needs a waiter, you don't need to do too tiring work, you will be able to adapt quickly." ”

As he spoke, his amber eyes filled with pity.

"Oh......"

Fang Yuan lightly agreed, and drank the soup with a soup spoon, the rich cream inside was mellow and silky, and it was very delicious: "Could it be the cause of my injury?" ”

This gesture made Jock hesitate a little: "Yes...... I've given you a 'healing water', but it doesn't expel the demonic power from your body......"

Healing water is a strange thing used by demon hunters, even if it is seriously injured and broken, as long as it is used in time, it can be rejected.

And even it is useless, and it can basically be declared hopeless.

"Healing? Not cheap, right? Could it be that you padd, uncle? ”

Fang Yuan knew very well that Hulk was so poor before, and if he had a little money, he had to buy weapons and supplies, and he couldn't afford to pay for the treatment.

And a standard portion of the healing, even if it is the price of the witcher's house, requires ten rubies of good quality.

"Haha...... This little money was lent to you by the uncle! Jock patted his chest proudly: "It's a big deal that you will pay me back later!" ”

"It's still certain, but I don't know how you deal with Aunt Sophia!"

Fang Yuan smiled, thinking of the hidden attribute of the retired demon hunter in front of him—his wife was strict.

"Ahem......"

At the mention of this, Jock suddenly became dumb, coughed dryly for a long time, and suddenly asked, "You don't want to?" ”

"Of course not!"

Fang Yuan made an impassioned look: "How much hardship have I endured to finally become a demon hunter, how can I give up at this time?" ”

In his heart, he rolled his eyes silently, he crossed over, but not to be a waiter.

"Alas...... You've had such a stubborn temper since you were a child! ”

Uncle Jock sighed.

Hulk was an orphan who was cared for by him as a child.

After thinking about it, he said, "I can't do anything about your injury, but the rest of the union may have a way...... You can try your luck at HQ! ”

As if thinking of something, there was a little hesitation in his tone: "And ...... The rumored sorcerer also has a lot of strange abilities. ”

"Sorcerer!?"

Fang Yuan's heart trembled, and he thought of a certain memory.

There is no absolute light and darkness in the world, and gray areas will always exist.

The so-called 'sorcerers' are a group of people who are somewhere between light and darkness.

The Night Clan feeds on humans, but in some special cases, they will also breed offspring with humans.

If these offspring are strong enough to withstand the influence of the will of chaos and not degenerate into monsters, they can retain the appearance of normal people.

After several generations of domestication, adapting to the power of this bloodline, it will develop strange abilities.

Such a person calls himself a 'sorcerer', and unlike the Night Clan and the Demon Hunter, he is considered a neutral character, and sometimes even connects the two sides, acting as an intermediary and conducting certain private transactions.

On the surface, of course, this is absolutely not allowed.

Moreover, due to the influence of the bloodline in the body, the sorcerer is often extreme, not a very good trader, and even occasionally completely degenerates and becomes a monster, once discovered, it is also an existence that the demon hunter will hunt to death.

Now, Jock actually asked Hulk to go to the sorcerer for help, apparently he couldn't think of any other way.

"Sorcerers are dangerous...... Some are even more terrifying than the Night Clan, and this is just the last piece of advice! Jock said solemnly, "Don't take any chances...... Remember, my child, the doors of the Axe Bar are always open for you! ”

"Thank you!"

Fang Yuan nodded solemnly, but in his heart, his interest in the group of sorcerers had greatly increased.
