Rhodes walked over to the table and made eye contact with the gray-haired girl, immediately impressed by her emerald eyes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 He also noticed that the girl had been wiped with a hot towel by Sylna yesterday and had applied dark eyeshadow around her eyes, which concealed her slightly weak face and made her whole person look radiant.

"Hello. He spoke, and his dryness made Morfan laugh at the door.

"Thank you. The girl stared into his eyes and said earnestly.

Then the two of them didn't have anything to say, but fortunately, Dieter didn't give them a chance to be cold, and after telling Sylna to close the door, he cut straight to the point: "Except for the monster hunter hired yesterday, it's all here." Yesterday you suddenly appeared, we took a lot of risks to save you, but we didn't find anything related to your identity on you, how did you appear, what is the situation of chasing your legendary 'wild hunt' guys, tell me. They're hunting you through portals, and while the town is spending a lot of money to keep the military anti-teleportation barrier open, I don't want to be on the lookout for enemies that can appear around me in an instant. ”

"I'm sorry for the trouble. The gray-haired girl put her arms on the table and lowered her head slightly: "I beg your pardon for being rude, but you can ask first, what year and month is it now, and what is this place?"

"In the sixteenth year of the Sixth Age of Magic, on the northern border of the Midland Empire, Shadow Town. The teleportation appeared in front of them, and it was understandable to ask strange questions, and Dieter replied impatiently.

"What about Temeria, Aden, Sintra, Livia, and Nilfgaard? ”

There was silence for a while, and the gray-haired girl stared at the reaction of the three of them with her huge green eyes for a while, and sighed, although it was rare to understand the human language of this world, this was still not her world.

Then there's nothing to hide.

"My name is Ciria Fiona Eren Leannon, and you may call me Ciri. The gray-haired girl spoke slowly: "The people who are chasing me, the guys that ordinary people call 'Wild Hunt', are elves from another world who call themselves Ain El, they hunt me down and want me...... Breed for them. ”

"Procreation?" Dieter asked suspiciously, "Do you want to gain the right to rule a certain place by marriage, are you the daughter of a certain king or a great noble?"

"No, it's not for political reasons, they want the whole world. The girl shook her head, "To understand this, you must first understand the wild hunt, which is the way of survival of the Elves of Ain El. For various reasons, they were followed by some kind of natural disaster, and the world they lived in was no longer suitable for habitation one by one covered by ice and snow, and they had to move every once in a while to come to a new world to survive. Kill all the original intelligent life in that world - if anything, take it for yourself. ”

"They have a crush on the world?" asked Grom warily.

"Not yet, but I don't rule it out. Ciri sighed and clenched the hand on the table: "The key is me, without me, or the power in my bloodline, they can't migrate to other worlds on a large scale." ”

"If I hadn't actually watched you pop up, I'd almost think you'd be talking nonsense. Dieter frowned, struggling to comprehend these words: "But I have seen with my own eyes that the black-armored mage opened at least four portals at one time, bringing in nearly a hundred wild hunting soldiers. ”

"How long can he maintain four portals, and even if he can come over a few hundred at a time, how long will it take to get the same kind of people from the whole world?"

"So what can you do, open a lot or a big portal?"

"I don't know, maybe I can, but their plan is not to let me open the door, but to let me marry another elf who also has ancient blood, give birth to a child, and then teach this elf these abilities from an early age...... But sadly, the elf died. ”

"You killed it?"

"No, how could you think that. ”

"Why does it have to be you?" Rhodes was confused, "You can suddenly appear in front of us because of the ability in your blood." ”

"That's right, they call it the blood of the Elders, and it's not a bloodline created out of thin air, but the elves who originally called themselves Ain Wooddold have been artificially cultivated over countless generations...... Let's say 'variety'. Ciri turned her head, the eyes of the two met for the second time, the girl suddenly felt a throbbing in her heart, and a strange feeling came from the lower abdomen in her body, quickly diverging, stimulating her skin, her hair stood on end, and she immediately turned her head: "I don't know how it was cultivated, maybe it is to constantly let the elves who are good at space magic combine and reproduce with each other? ”

Rod also quickly turned his head, realizing that the eyes he was staring at people just now were too naked, and the girl he picked up on the side of the road would definitely become his lover or wife, and it didn't make sense to think about it. But she was really handsome, although her skin was not as delicate and smooth as Roy or Silver, even if she had a few small freckles on her nose, even if she had a long scar under her left eye...... All this came together, but it made her more heroic.

The two young men had their own thoughts, and what Rod didn't realize was that when he was staring at Ciri with "affection" just now, he inadvertently used the instinctive seduction ability that his mother had inherited from him, which caused a sensitive reaction from the other party.

The girl's face was slightly red, and she continued to explain: "In short, those ancient elves have gained the ability to travel through magic and biological experiments, so that they can travel and colonize various worlds, but unfortunately, such frequent experiments in space-time magic have attracted a man-made natural disaster called hoarfrost from the void. Heat constantly leaks out of the torn world, causing the entire world to be covered in ice and snow and turn into a dead silence. ”

(Sounds a bit like a return of magic in our world.) Rod was a little flustered: "But the temperature of our world has not been significantly affected by these spatial rifts?"

"The spatial rift in your world is too small, and 'White Frost' can only be made up of super-large-scale space magic, at least tens of millions of Ain El...... This is what you call 'wild hunting', which can only be triggered by migration between worlds. Space itself has a strong ability to heal itself, but that level of space magic will poke a large hole between the world and the void, which is a permanent wound that is difficult to recover. ”

"Maybe we should convey this information to the Emperor and legislate to restrict the use of space magic?" Grom's face was slightly gloomy, obviously he was also worried about the fate of the world he was in, the white frost that the mysterious girl said was really similar to the return of mana, and even worse, since Wild Hunt had already come to this world, it was hard to guarantee that he would not make this world his next target.

"I'm for it, but that's your business. The gray-haired girl's face returned to normal and nodded: "The above is the embarrassing situation encountered by the elves of Ain El, they really 'stabbed' the huge basket - the hoarfrost destroys every world they reach, forcing them to travel to the next world every few centuries, and the act of going to the next world has to make another big hole in the space barrier of the target world. This is Pandora's box, a dancing shoe that cannot be taken off once put on, a curse for eternal life, and they are not at peace. ”

PS: [That's right, this girl is Ciri, the daughter of the protagonist of the world-famous card game "Gwent 3". It should be mentioned that the author did not borrow her out of thin air to write a typical anti-crossing story. At the end of the original novel of The Witcher series, Ciri was seventeen years old, and she spent several years traveling through many worlds to find her way home, and at the age of twenty-one, she finally returned to her original world and began the story of The Witcher 3.

What the author wants to do is to fill in a small part of the adventure of Ciri through the universe in the past few years between the original novel and the main game. This girl will be with the protagonist of this book for a while, go through some things together, grow a little bit together, and then go back to the path she should go. 】
