390 Season of the Witches
The originally bustling coffee shop suddenly became a pin drop.
Everyone looked at Xuechen in front of them and was stunned, because when Jiechen left this world, he had said that he would not come back, but now Xuechen appeared so suddenly, so that everyone didn't react.
"What? Don't you know me? Xuechen smiled, his gaze swept over everyone, and finally stopped at Dong Xiang and Zhenhu Xiao, and then whispered, "I'm sorry, I'm back." β
Bang dang! The table fell to the ground with a loud bang.
I saw Dong Xiang knock over the coffee table in front of him, ran over and threw himself into Xuechen's arms, and hugged him tightly. The real touch told Dong Xiang that this was true, and it was no longer a false scene in a dream, and then she cried and beat Xuechen's chest, scolding while beating back: "Bastard! Bastard! β
Xuechen looked apologetic, reached out and hugged her, then looked up at Matoxiao, who was also in tears, and opened his other hand.
Mato Xiao covered his mouth, ran over and bumped into Xuechen's arms, and hugged this guy who made them think about it with Dong Xiang, and cried loudly.
When the group of people in the back saw this scene, they all leaked expressions of relief, because the two girls' waiting finally had a result, and they were sincerely happy for the two.
"Okay, stop crying, it was all my fault before, and now I'm back." Xuechen was both moved and helpless to comfort the two girls, and it took a lot of effort to coax them well.
When things calmed down, Xuechen greeted everyone one by one, and then introduced Shirley, Yuna, and A-Ning to everyone.
When they heard that these three girls were all Xuechen's women, the corners of these people's mouths couldn't help twitching. Dong Xiang and Xiao didn't care, as long as their beloved came back, they didn't care about anything.
"Although it was relatively sudden, I came back this time with Dong Xiang and Xiao." Xuechen explained the purpose of the trip, then looked at the two women and asked, "Are you willing?" β
"I do!" Dong Xiang held one of Xuechen's hands and agreed without hesitation.
Mato Xiao held Xuechen's other hand and replied seriously and firmly: "I will go wherever you go, this time I don't want to be separated from you again!" β
"Well, I promise, I won't leave any of you behind." Bloodshine swears.
Hearing this, Dong Xiang and Xiao only felt extremely happy, and they were about to faint with happiness.
"Let's say goodbye." Xuechen instructed. The deity has already urged him, so he can't waste time here, and as for catching up with these old friends, let's talk about it when I have a chance later.
After a short stay, Xuechen said goodbye to everyone with the five girls, and then disappeared directly in front of everyone's eyes.
Hogwarts;
The hustle and bustle of the prom has passed, and everyone's minds are back to the Triwizard Tournament. Game 2 started quickly, and as with the original story, the Warriors had to rescue their important companions at the bottom of the Black Lagoon, and the result didn't change much, except for Fleur Delacul, everyone else successfully completed the mission.
It is worth mentioning that Penelope gave up his qualification to participate in the final at the behest of Fachen because they were ready to enter the next world together. This time, there are also the blood Chen and his party who have just returned to the world of Harry Potter.
As for the next game and Voldemort or something, it would be good for Harry to solve it himself, anyway, Fachen didn't think that Harry would be beaten by Voldemort like before, and the reverse was almost the same.
In the woodside hut, Fachen looked at Xuechen and the five girls behind him, and pouted helplessly: "You guy, isn't it a little too much." β
"Haha, you're jealous." Xuechen smiled very poorly, as a personal winner, he now has a sense of superiority. Especially when he had just experienced the baptism of adulthood, he collected five and won five kills, and the whole person of Xuechen was about to float to the sky. As for the process, in order not to be targeted by the river crab beast, I won't describe it here, ahem...
Fachen rolled his eyes helplessly: "The ghost is jealous of you." Okay, let's go when you're ready, this mission is very important, and you can't be sloppy. β
"Hmph, I know without you saying it." Xuechen nodded.
Fachen opened the door of time and space, and Penelope took the lead and walked in, followed by Xuechen and the five daughters. In a flash, they have come to a desolate world, the world called "Witch Season".
This is medieval Europe, in 1343 AD.
More than 100 years ago, in order to eradicate other sects on the European continent, the Holy See launched 9 wars in more than 100 years, investing millions of troops, plunging the whole of Eastern Europe into war.
In the course of more than 100 years of sectarian strife, the population of Europe as a whole was decimated. In addition to the more than 2 million people who died most directly in the war, many more civilians were devastated by the fighting, dying of starvation or disease.
Countless people burst into the wilderness, and then the mass decomposing corpses caused a massive Black Death, also known as the plague. This terrible plague soon spread from West Asia to the whole of Europe, and tens of millions of people died as a result, causing immeasurable losses to the development of historical civilization.
The main purpose of Fachen and their entry into this world is to use the Philosopher's Stone to collect the souls who died in the war. Tens of millions of human lives are enough to complete the evolution of the Philosopher's Stone.
"Let's separate here, and meet in Styria in a year." Fachen said as he took out the sealed Philosopher's Stone from his bosom and threw it to Xuechen.
"Got it." Xuechen took the Philosopher's Stone, and the five women behind him turned into a blood mist and disappeared, and their mission was to collect the souls of the wronged people all over Europe.
Fachen, on the other hand, had something else to do.
Summon Sonny, a unicorn, and together with Penelope, ride to the nearest town.
VikliΕ‘ is a small town that has become almost a dead city due to war and plague. It used to have thousands of inhabitants, but now there are not one in ten, so that the Crusaders did not want to be stationed here, leaving only a few and a priest to garrison it.
The dirty and muddy streets were full of people who had collapsed to the ground, still alive with blank eyes, like soulless shells, and the dead had begun to stink and be riddled with flies and insects.
Fachen and Penelope rode on Sonny's back, and as soon as they entered the city, they saw such a scene.
"Vomit..."Penelope retched, turning his head to hide his head in Fachen's arms, for a girl who grew up in peacetime, the image in front of her made her feel very uncomfortable.
Fachen patted her on the back and comforted, "It's okay Penelope, you'll get used to it later." β
Penelope looked up at him, his eyes full of unbearability: "Drake, can you help them?" They are so pathetic. β
Fachen shook his head when he heard this: "How much can I help them even if I help?" All this was caused by the Holy See, and the only way to change was to end the war. β
"So what can we do to end the war?" Penelope asked.
"It is enough to defeat one side of the war once and for all."
"Wouldn't that kill a lot of people?" Penelope was very depressed, she was still too kind.
Originally, Penelope thought that she could see countless wonderful worlds with Fachen, but she didn't expect to encounter such a miserable thing for the first time, which made her a little unacceptable.
Fachen stroked the girl's hair: "If it doesn't work, I'll send you back." β
"No!" Penelope nervously grabbed Fachen's clothes, "I want to be by your side!" It's okay, I can adapt! "More than these miserable scenes, Penelope cares more about the lover in front of him.
Fachen kissed her with relief and stopped talking.
At this time, a little girl came running in the distance, who seemed to be only six or seven years old, her face and body were dirty and she couldn't see her face clearly, and she looked flustered, as if she was running away from something.
Sure enough, several crusaders in leather armor chased after them, shouting at the same time, "Catch that witch!" Don't let her run! β
Seeing this, both Fachen and Penelope frowned as they thought of that dark part of the history of magic.
According to the history books of magic, one of the darkest periods in the history of magic was during the Crusades. In order to consolidate their rule, the Holy See hunted and slaughtered heretics, especially the magicians of this era, because the Holy See feared that they had extraordinary powers, which led to the almost extinction of magicians.
No matter how powerful a magician is, after all, there are only people, and the number is very small, and in the face of thousands of troops, unless he reaches the level of a great magician, he can only wait to be killed.
The magicians who survived were all hiding to survive, but the Holy See was still not at ease, but whenever there was anything related to magic, they would use force and violence to suppress it. Even if you kill the wrong one, you must kill them all and never leave any trouble, which can be described as extremely brutal.
There are even more people who have been unjustly killed because of this policy of the Holy See than real magicians. In addition, the Holy See also called magicians heretics, saying that they were all devils who mastered witchcraft, and slandered them to the extreme. So much so that many history books refer to magicians as sorcerers and regard them as representatives of evil.
And in front of him, it was obvious that these crusaders were indiscriminately hunting and killing civilians again, because Fachen couldn't feel the slightest magic fluctuation on that little girl.
"Drake?" Penelope looked at Fachen as if asking for help, she wanted to save the innocent little girl.
Fachen smiled: "Do it if you want, I will support you." β
"Thank you!" Penelope's eyes lit up and he jumped off Sonny's back.
The little girl ran not far in front of Penelope when she suddenly tripped under her feet and fell to the ground. She looked up at the beautiful big sister in front of her, her little face was full of pleading and despair, and she cried, "Please! Help me! They killed my mother! β
Penelope heard the little girl's words, and his eyes were instantly filled with anger. She squatted down, ignoring the fact that the little girl would stain herself with black mud, and helped the other person up.
"It's okay, little sister, I'll help you." After saying this softly, Penelope took two steps forward, blocking the little girl behind him, and met the chasing crusaders head-on.
"Who are you? Is this witch's accomplice?! The leading crusader shouted. Originally, he saw Penelope dressed in luxurious clothes, and he was afraid that she was the eldest lady of a noble family, but when he saw Penelo's beautiful face, he immediately threw this jealousy into his mind.
What about the nobility in his mind? As long as it is mixed with a wizard, it is a capital offense! And such a beautiful chick, wouldn't it be a waste if she couldn't catch it back and play with it? You must know that they haven't touched a woman for a long time, let alone such a beautiful and clean woman.
Several of the other crusaders also stared at Penelope up and down with obscenity, and laughed lewdly from time to time.
Seeing this, Penelo's anger in his heart was even greater: "You scum scum! There is a price to pay! β
When a group of crusaders heard this, they laughed.
But in the next second, they couldn't laugh, because the angry Penelope shot directly, and a spell that was all petrified turned the leading crusader into a statue.
"Ahh Devil! β
"Devil! She's the devil! Run! β
The surrounding civilians screamed and fled as if they had seen something terrifying.
"She's a witch! Get her! β
"Heretics! Damn it! Kill her! β
The rest of the crusaders reacted, but they did not flee, and they were completely brainwashed by the Holy See, and they would not be afraid at all.
The crusaders shouted and drew their weapons and surrounded Penelope, and one of them blew his horn to notify the other reinforcements.
For a moment, the whole of Viklish was in chaos.
