Chapter 59: The Wild Hunt Squad
"Who the hell are they?"
On the way to Vigema, Yennefer rode with Geralt very naturally, but the corners of her eyes drifted upwards.
Overhead, a griffon flew slowly, following them.
In fact, it was not only Yennefer who had such a move, but all the soldiers involved in this operation would look upwards unnaturally.
Even though they knew that this griffin had always been a 'gentle' fellow, they knew better about the incident of the griffon's attack on humans in White Orchard Village.
No matter who it is, will you worry that the big guy on top of your head will suddenly go crazy, and then you will become the first unlucky person to be attacked?
No one wants to joke with their lives, even if this world is really worthless.
"They claim to be magicians from faraway lands." Geralt also glanced at the griffin above and whispered, "By the way, do you know what happened to Ciri now?" ”
"Heri's situation? Did you find out about Ciri's situation too? ”
"No, it's the Heavenly Magician who spoke to me. To be precise, he's the one Ciri found to deal with the wild hunt. I didn't really believe him because he gave me the impression that he was too dangerous. ”
"He's very dangerous, you know, he doesn't seem to exist at all! But what he said is true, Ciri is in a bad situation right now, and I took you to Enshir to get Ciri back. ”
"It seems that the magician is not lying."
Through a simple exchange with Yennefer, Geralt was able to confirm some information.
That is, Ciri's situation is really not good, in the face of the pursuit of the wild hunt, all Ciri can do is escape, and in a desperate situation, then it is natural for her to use magic teleportation.
Knowing Ciri's ability to enter other worlds, it doesn't seem like a big deal for her to meet Josh, the prince of another world.
Then Ciri definitely knows how terrible this prince's power is, so he will find a way to seek his help.
"Probably, but we still can't be sure of his true purpose, after all, we haven't met Ciri, let alone know what happened to Ciri."
Yennefer sighed and said, she cares about Ciri from the bottom of her heart, as a witch, although Yennefer has a long lifespan and incomprehensible strength for ordinary people, but she also lost her fertility at the same time, and Ciri's appearance completely supplemented her lack of feelings in this regard.
Suddenly, Ye Naifa's heart moved, and suddenly her face became a little gloomy: "They are here." ”
"They? Who is it? Geralt asked quietly as he looked around.
"Wild Hunt." Yennefer's expression was a little heavy: "I activated my magic when I was looking for Ciri, you know they have found me before, they are very familiar with my magic, these wild hunts can find me quickly. So much so that now I don't even dare to use magic. ”
As Yennefer spoke, a group of knights in dark armor chased after them.
Their heads were all covered with skull-like helmets, and their bodies exuded an aura of terror, and their appearance immediately sent the entire army into a panic.
"Hell! It's a wild hunt! Ciri, who was flying in the sky, also saw those terrifying figures, and she suddenly panicked.
"Did you just find out? They've been chasing us for almost an hour, and I have to say your perception is really poor. Josh also focused on the Hunt Knights, but he quickly withdrew his gaze.
"And what are you going to do?"
"What else can I do? Since I promised you, I will naturally do what I have to do, and it seems that you don't trust me very much. ”
"How so..... Well, I really don't trust you very much, after all, we haven't been in contact for even three days! ”
"Reasonable explanation, so it's time for me to do something."
Josh smiled, then patted the griffon's head, and the griffon, as if he understood Josh's meaning, immediately flew towards the wild hunt below, and in the blink of an eye, a member of the hunt was pulled up by the griffon, and then bit off his neck.
The griffon's approach suddenly made these wild hunters dare not act rashly, and they slowly slowed down their speed and looked at this griffin solemnly.
Geralt and Yennefer involuntarily slowed down their horses, wondering why the griffon had fallen.
"What do they want to do?" Ye Naifa asked with a frown.
"I don't know, he said he was dealing with wild hunting, and it does seem like that now." Geralt thought for a moment and said.
As for Josh's other purposes for coming to this world, he already knew a lot about it through Viselmir, but Geralt hadn't told Yennefer about it yet.
What's more, when dealing with ordinary people and griffins, Josh showed strength that made him scared, and he wanted to see what Josh's performance was in the face of these wild hunts.
"I think we'd better get out of here, the target of that wild hunt is me, and we can only be safed if we get to Vijma......"
Before Yennefer could finish his words, his mouth grew in shock.
I don't know when, the environment of this step has completely changed, and even Ye Naifa didn't feel any magic fluctuations at all, if it weren't for the magic that the snowflakes that fell down from this change contained magic that made her feel cold.
"It's ..... Hoarfrost? No! No way, hoarfrost is naturally formed! It's magic! ”
Ye Naifa's pupils instantly widened, such a terrifying magic was something she had never felt before, there was very little magic contained in the falling snowflakes, it was the terrifying quality of magic that made her feel incomparable fear!
"I heard that you've been hiding from hoarfrost all the time?"
By this time Josh had jumped off the griffin and walked towards the hunting troops, with a smile on his face, but this smile made all the hunts dare not move, they seemed to feel something.
"I'm sorry, but I'm pretty good at using frost too. And I can assure you that my magic is more memorable than hoarfrost. ”
As soon as the words fell, this time not only Yennefer could feel it, but even Geralt and even those ordinary soldiers could feel a terrifying force coming.
For a moment, all that was left in front of them was a vast paleness, and the hunting troops were drowned in this pale without even having room to resist.
The feeling of cold enveloped everyone present at once, but this feeling came and went quickly.
Before they even realized what was happening, the cold was gone, and there were only patches of wild hunting like ice sculptures in place!
"This ..... How is this possible! ”
Ye Naifa trembled a little all over, she really had never heard of such a terrible situation, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would probably never have believed that such a thing would happen for the rest of her life!
Those terrible, powerful wild hunts were crushed to pieces like ants, or the kind that had no resistance!
How is this possible? Who the hell is this?
All Yennefer could do at this moment was to look at Geralt with her doubtful gaze, because only Geralt could tell herself some answers now, because Geralt was the only one who had ever come into contact with this mysterious magician who was so mysterious that it was desperate.
"Would you believe me if I said that I knew only a little about him?" Geralt shook his head with a wry smile.
"I believe you, such a terrible character, if you can understand it, it is fake. But even if it's some false information, I hope you can tell me the truth. ”
"Of course, I do have a lot of things about him that I have to talk to you about."
"That couldn't be better."
Josh didn't know what Yennefer and Geralt were talking about right now, and even if he did, he probably wouldn't care that much.
He was interested in these wild hunts now, which were not large troops at all, but just a group to hunt down Yennefer.
Josh wanted to know from these guys where their wild hunting army was, so Josh deliberately kept one of them from dying.
As for the rest, then go with the wind, it's all going to die anyway, what's the difference between going first and going last?
Slowly walking in front of the only remaining wild hunter, Josh directly pulled his helmet away with magic.
It's about the same as Josh thought, an elf, of course, if it weren't for the guy's sharp ears, it would be difficult for Josh to associate him with the so-called elf with his distorted facial features.
"It's kind of like a snow elf." Josh touched his chin and complained secretly.
"Snow elves don't look like this, this guy is cold by your magic, idiot." Akatosh always likes to go against Josh, and he likes to come whenever and wherever he wants.
"Whatever, it's all the same anyway. It was enough for him to give me the information I needed. I don't care about anything else, well, of course I'll make him die more comfortably. ”
"Ha, you're so generous."
Josh didn't bother to pay attention to Akatosh's complaints, and glanced at Ciri who was walking towards him, and Josh directly raised his hand slightly.
The Wild Hunter, who had been frozen half to death, floated up directly, and then before this guy could say a cruel word, his eyes had already become foggy.
"Tell me everything you know, where is your army now?"
"I don't know Your Excellency, we have a special contact method, so I can only feel where they are."
"Can you take me to them?"
"Yes, but they already know what happened to us here, and they may have left."
"Is that so?" Josh sighed helplessly: "Forget it, anyway, you will come to find someone sooner or later, so you will kill yourself." ”
"Yes, Your Excellency."
