The two chatted for a long time at the gate of the castle in the inner city, and made a tentative agreement on peaceful coexistence, and finally the Bloody Baron could not bear the fatigue and drunken sleepiness, and went to rest with a yawn. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Edward half-sat next to the grave of the infant and closed his eyes in meditation.

At midnight, Edward opened his eyes and saw a baby soul fluttering beside him with a glittering light. Edward smiled, scratching the chin of the family elf with his glowing fingers, eliciting a strange laugh.

Edward did not wake the baron, and followed the goblin to a roadside house not far from the crow's nest, where he got news of Anna's mother and daughter.

After Edward teleported a female Rog warrior and escorted the family to the Demon Hunter camp, he returned to the Crow's Nest.

"Bad news. "Edward met the newly awakened Baron in the hall of the castle," your wife Anna was caught by a monster and walked through the mudback swamp, while your daughter Tamara fled to Ausenfurt. ”

"I'll gather the men and horses to rescue Anna in the mudback. "The baron said haggardly, "Although there are many conflicts between us, she has always been my wife. Will you continue to help me?"

"Of course, but before I can do that, I must make a trip to the Demon Hunter Camp, and I have heard from your men that the Fortress of Willen is finished. Edward said, "And I made an appointment with a friend to meet there." ”

"Fortress of Willen, this is the name of the castle that appeared out of thin air, right?" The baron's face was full of shock at the mention of the fortress that was "growing" every day, "I have never seen anyone build such a large fortress in such a short time, how did you do it?"

Edward smiled, and instead of answering the baron's question, he said, "You can go there with me, and then I will work with my friends to help you find your wife and daughter." ”

"But Anna was caught in the swamp and I had to save her immediately. The Baron would also like to see the Fortress of Willen up close, but he is more concerned about Anna's safety, "I have to race against time now, and any delay will have unforeseen consequences." ”

"It doesn't take much time. Edward said, "I can send us there with magic, all you need to do now is gather your men." ”

The baron finally agreed, and after gathering a squad of soldiers, Edward opened the portal to the fortress of Willen.

Most of the Baron's men were veterans who were good at warfare, but they had never experienced magical teleportation. When they came out of the portal, they were shocked by the huge castle in front of them before they had time to adjust to the discomfort of the spatial transformation.

Edward nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the tall walls of the Willen Fortress, the towers of the arrows, the wide moat, and the stone castle in the style of Lordaeron. While many details went unnoticed by the Earth Elemental Spirits, the appearance of this fortress castle was already a miracle.

On the moat of the fortress of Willen, a wide drawbridge was lowered, and even in the early hours of the morning, many people who had heard the news were being inspected by the guards.

Guarding the gates of the city were one of the female warriors of Rogge and three local citizens. The three guards were now dressed in demon hunter training uniforms, armed with swords and shields, carefully examining those who wanted to enter the city. Beside them, a giant rock giant turned into a statue and towered over the north gate, dutifully guarding the fortress.

"Captain!" Edward's portal attracted the attention of the female warrior of Rog, and when she saw Edward appear with a group, she ran over with joy and saluted.

"Has Geralt arrived?" Edward returned the salute and briefly introduced the Baron and the others, and then walked to the main door.

"Mr. Geralt arrived last night, and with him a witch named Kayla, who is now presumably resting in the guest room. ”

Edward nodded, letting her continue to check the doorway, and he led the baron into the fortress.

Willen Fortress was built after Rivendell Fortress, so Edward was no stranger to it. When he arrives with the baron alone at the house where his guests live, he finds Geralt and a woman flirting in the hall......

"It seems that our Mr. White Wolf knows how to make fun out of suffering. Edward nodded politely at the woman dressed as a witch and smiled, "Don't you demon hunters need to rest?"

"I chose a relatively simple task. Geralt stood up and patted Edward on the shoulder, "So, I've been in bed for so long that I can't sleep a little now." ”

Edward laughed, and the witch gave Geralt an angry look.

After introducing each other, the four began to exchange information.

"So, Ciri went to Vinorig?" Geralt said, glancing at the somewhat absent-minded Baron, "Since the Baron has repented, I don't mind helping him." ”

"Be careful. Kayla reminded, "Those three old witches in the hunchback mire are not simple, they seem to have a connection with the wild hunt. Judging by the escape routes of Ciri and Hermione, there is a good chance that they were chased by these three men. ”

"No matter what, I'm going to go there and save Anna. The baron said a little anxiously, "Even if it's a death trap." ”

"Don't worry, Your Excellency. Edward said, "Geralt and I will help you, let's go now, I'm sure we'll be there before dawn." ”

Then, Edward looked at Kayla again and said, "Miss Kayla, are you planning to settle in my Willen Fortress?"

"Is that okay? There are a lot of refugees in need here, and it's safer than my house, so I can put in less effort to set up defensive magic. "In return, I can go with you to the humpback mire, I'm a little more familiar with the conditions." ”

"Of course, there is a shortage of talent in the Willen Fortress right now, and your joining is exactly what we need. Edward smiled and walked out of the room first, leading the group to the humpback mire. As he passed Geralt, Edward found that he was carrying only a steel sword behind his back.

"Is the Light any good? Geralt. Edward asked with a smile.

"Works. Geralt hesitated for a moment, as if trying to find out the shortcomings of the Light, but finally sighed and admitted, "Although I don't want to praise my peers, I have to say that this is a very good strength for me, and it is flawless. ”

"The only thing that puzzles me is that since you taught me this power, I've found that my Holy Light seems to grow a little too fast compared to those new recruits of yours?"

"That's the flaw you've racked your brains for?" Edward laughed, "it's not a flaw, it's because you're gifted, and I'm just using the key of the Light to open the closed door in your heart." ”
