Chapter 21: Triss

"I'll admit, I've had a little too much of an easy time these days. But after I found Glelint and Megoos, I finally had a third person who would interest me and allow me to arrange a little. ”

"Triss, ah, Tris-Cheek in the future."

"I'm curious what would happen if Chick saw his Divine Descent vessel take the shape of an outer god before the Divine Descent, and perhaps, I could get the Primordial Witch to be replaced? Whether it's for the goddess of the night or for Medici, it seems that it's a little better than this guy taking this path. ”

"Don't ask me why I dare to keep a diary after Russell, I don't believe anyone can read my diary in the language of that race in the starry sky that I don't even remember."

"Also, there's one more thing worth mentioning. It had been a month since the student I had taken in as a member of the Abrahamic family had died, and Furth had not sent me a letter. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Wait, could she have written too lazy to send it out? ”

"Looks like I'm going to have to check her digestion progress."

"August 15, 1349, Gao Wei, Ji."

……

Gao Wei walked casually on the street, and the sunset at dusk was as red as blood, splashing into the river as if it was soaked in blood. He paused slightly, using his extraordinary ability to gaze at a stiff corpse lying on the bed from a long distance, and after confirming the cause of the old woman's death, the corners of Gao Wei's mouth turned up slightly. Triss made a move, and Gao Wei watched as a group of night watchmen walked outside, led by the young necromantic mentor. Triss is clever enough to run away, but her role as a witch is so clumsy that even a rookie night watchman like Klein can spot the clues in her.

"There are too many occult imprints, Triss. Relying on the witch's own anti-divination alone will not prevent people with malicious intentions towards you. Gao Wei pursed his lips, picked up his cane and walked leisurely outside, following the occult connection, and went straight to the altar where Triss was hiding.

At the same time, as an upside-down hangman and a "observer" of the Sequence 7 of the "Scholar" path, Gao Wei can easily find his target with his observation power even if he does not use his essentia.

Gray-blue house on the second floor, no lights in the bedroom.

A young woman with a round face and a gentle and sweet face is sitting at a dresser, studying "complex" skin care in the dim starlight.

Next to her right hand was a silver mirror, the surface of which was so rough that it barely showed a human figure.

Suddenly, a bloody trail appeared on the silver mirror.

The gentle and sweet Trissy's expression immediately sank, and she stood up, walked to the window, and looked out in silence.

After a brief fight with Leonard, Triss retreated with her injured body in her arms. It is worth mentioning that due to the suspicion that Dunn Smith and a small group of night watchmen involved in the operation were suspected of being contaminated by the real creator in the previous battle, the Templars specially transferred Dalie, who was familiar with the situation in Tingen, to Tingen again and replaced Dunn, so that Dunn could go to Beckland to recuperate first.

And Dali had already been promoted to Sequence 6, and under her men, Triss was almost killed directly by the spirit she summoned. Although she narrowly escaped with her life, she suffered several severe penetrating wounds.

By the Tasok River, Triss slowed down and set her eyes on the flowers she was holding. She muttered something in her mouth, and a black, illusory flame burst out of her palm. The flame enveloped the flowers and literally burned, burning them to ashes.

The flower was stained with Leonard's blood, and at this moment, Leonard watched the nails that he had pulled out begin to burn, his face suddenly changed, and he began to congratulate the "old man" in his mind for reminding him in time.

Triss wanted to jump straight into the water, but her ears moved, and she seemed to hear some strange sounds. She leaped back warily, and saw a gentleman in a suit and leather shoes walking on the shore with a cane studded with crystals.

"What's wrong with you, lovely lady? You look terrible, do you need help? The corners of Gao Wei's mouth turned up, and he said softly to Triss. If you ignore the weirdness of his presence here, he even looks like a real gentleman at this moment.

Triss's expression was a little cloudy, and suddenly, she showed a seductive smile, made a weak posture and stumbled in the direction of Gao Wei. She gently wrapped her white slender arms around Gao Wei's neck, and with a flip of her wrist, a dagger with a glittering cold light pierced Gao Wei's heart without hesitation.

However, Triss was shocked to find that her tie was actually pierced, she watched the dagger in her hand pass through Gao Wei's body, fell into a shadow, and looked at the man in front of her in a little daze, and Gao Wei strangled Triss's body with his right hand, with a mysterious smile on his face, and drew a cross on his chest with his hand:

"Praise the Lord."

"Damn, Aurora Club!" Triss watched as she was crushed into the water to one side, gradually losing consciousness. She originally thought that the man in front of her, who was idle and hanging out at night, could only be a "night watchman" or some other wild extraordinary, but she never expected that he would be a member of the Aurora Society who had already destroyed himself in Tingen City!

……

"Crane, try to sucinate Triss's location, huh...... Leonard was right, the little ones in the Witch Sect might really be male, and I'm curious if they miss their old days as men. Yes...... Being able to experience the other person's feelings is also a characteristic of this potion, right? Dai Li said casually, which made Klein, who was already a little chilly, suddenly feel creepy.

At this time, he suddenly remembered what Gao Wei said before, about the famous saying recorded in Russell Great's diary, "The taste of witches is really good", Klein couldn't help but cover his mouth......

Great! Your XP...... Forget it, people's XP is free, the emperor has to check it!

Crane endured the chill in his heart and took out the cane in his hand to prepare for divination. After closing his eyes and chanting silently seven times, he looked at the cane standing steadily on the floorβ€”

Divination is interfered with!

"Ahem, aha-"

Triss awoke from her stupor, coughing a few times. She suddenly found herself lying in a room with a burning fireplace, and the man who had pressed herself into the water before she fell unconscious had changed his clothes and sat by the fireplace reading a book leisurely. Now that the situation is clear, she has just lost consciousness and been taken away by someone who has been packed and taken away, and she is now a "prisoner" of the Aurora Society - of course, Triss is already looking for an opportunity to escape.

"Awake?" Gao Wei asked, and Triss rolled over and stood up, looking at Gao Wei across from her without saying a word. She seems to be very determined, and she has the appearance of wanting to kill and listen to the respect.

"Then it looks like I'm awake." Gao Wei stood up and slowly walked towards this sweet-looking woman with a round face. He stared at Triss, and with each step forward, Triss unconsciously took a step back.

"Witch, what's your name?" Gao Wei asked, the shadows of his cuffs condensed, and a blade with a flickering cold light appeared in his hand, pressing the cold tip directly against Triss's snow-white neck. Feeling the sharp and cold touch on her neck, Triss swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously, and her eyes, which were still twinkling, suddenly became sincere and reliable.

Sure enough, this is the easiest way to negotiate...... Gao Wei muttered, and then asked the question just now: "Name?" ”

"Triss." Triss replied humiliatingly.

"Yes, Triss." Gao Wei nodded lightly and let go of the blade in his hand. He sat on the sofa in the living room and looked at Triss quietly: "I ask, you answer." Cult of Witches? ”

"Yes, I'm a member of the Witch Sect." Triss saw that her life was no longer threatened, and her brain, which had previously crashed, began to become active, "The one who guided me to join the Witch Sect was a higher-order extraordinary person - she is still in Tingen, and she should have discovered that I was missing by now." We have no hostile relationship with your Aurora Society, why are you arresting me? ”

"Hehe, you can let your 'seniors' come here, I don't mind." Gao Wei sneered: "What's more, now I'm asking you, don't ask me back." ”

"Also, I'm saving you, Triss." Gao Wei shook his fingers, "If it weren't for me to protect you, I'm afraid you would have been caught by the night watchman by now, right?" Dalie Simone, she's a veteran necromancer who has mastered the art of acting and the 'messenger'. Even with extraordinary items, you really think you can escape from her hands with a Sequence Seven? ”

"......" Triss turned her head and sighed, "Say, what do you want to save me?" You Aurora Society wouldn't be so kind...... Heh, save a 'witch'? ”

"Is it okay to believe in my Lord?"

Triss's pupils suddenly contracted, and she stepped back, making a fried look. Gao Wei smiled "hehe" and said softly to her, "Just kidding." Otherwise, how about you leave the sect and become my subordinate? I can provide you with a way to 'digest' potions, as well as financial support. In exchange, you just have to work for me. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm single-minded about the Witch Sect." Triss righteously refused: "Oh, you really don't believe in the true Creator, you are a nobleman?" Ridiculous, when will the believers of the true creator also develop witches to become subordinates? ”

"Oh...... I see. Gao Wei smiled mysteriously at Triss, "Then do you know the name of your path sequence six?" Yes...... Looking at your appearance, I don't know. I'm afraid you didn't even know that you were going to be a woman at this stage, right? But also, is it true that so many men willingly join the witch sect? Or are you expecting to be a beauty? ”

"What?" Triss suddenly had a bad premonition: "What do you mean?" What exactly is the potion name for the next sequence of 'The Witch'? ”

"Guess if I'll tell you? Triss, I saved you, you don't know anything about it, and you don't even want to say thank you to me. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Thank you. Triss stared at Gao Wei and squeezed out the words from between her teeth. With that, she turned her head away and remained silent for a long time. Seeing that her emotions were gradually reaching a critical value, Gao Wei showed a smile. He looked at Triss with a playful look and spat out two words from his mouth:

"Rejoice."

Triss's eyes changed instantly, with a hint of horror in the midst of shock. She looked at Gao Wei and asked in a cold voice, "What do you mean?" ”

"Tell me if you want to do something for meβ€”ah, of course, if you really don't want to, I won't force you. As we all know, our Aurora Society has always acted like a plague nuclear tomb, saving people without asking for anything in return. Even if I risk a lot of danger to save you, and you don't know how to repay you, I won't be angry. Gao Wei said lightly. Triss stamped her foot a little irritably, pondered for a while, and asked solemnly:

"What the hell are you going to ask me to do? Killing, looting...... I can do all of that. But first of all, I will not recite the name of your lord, nor will I be allowed to go and ......."

"You are my internal adviser to the Witch Cult, and when necessary, carry out the mission I have given you, gather information about the Witch Sect and what information you have access toβ€”of course, I will pay you a lot of money. If there are certain types of tasks that create a 'psychological shadow' on you, you can even turn them down. You don't need to recite the name of my Lord, but speak directly through my messenger. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ OK. Triss frowned and stared straight at Gao Wei. She watched him quickly throw a piece of paper pressed under his hand into the fireplace after he promised Gao Wei, and was stunned for a moment:

"What did you just write? A whistleblower letter to the Cathedral of the Storm? ”

Triss's eyes were good, and although Gao Wei was moving quickly, she still saw the words on them, and then made out some information from them. It was like a report letter reporting her identity, and the recipient turned out to be the Storm Church!

"You read it wrong, we Aurora and the Church of Storms don't share the sky."

"That's definitely a report letter!"

"You're mistaken."

Triss opened her mouth, thought about it and decided not to argue again. She calmed down, looked at Gao Wei, and asked:

"I've agreed to your request, and now you can always tell me what you promised me, right?"

"Of course, I'm a man of my word." Gao Wei laughed, put his hands against his chin, and said to Triss:

"Do you want to be a man again? Triss. ”
