Chapter 136: Triss is Injured (Ask for Collection, Ask for Subscription, Ask for Reward)

Having decided to take a short risk, Wayne and Triss took a short break and temporarily deposited their mounts with Alan.

It's not far from the place marked by Triss, and if you have two horses, it's a little distracting.

Soon, seeing that the villagers' injuries had been temporarily treated and their lives were not in danger, the two walked towards the middle of the forest.

Although Triss had been graduating from the academy for nearly ten years, as sorceresses, they spent most of their time in the city, rarely had the opportunity to enter such an uninhabited wilderness, and rarely dealt with such a tangled choice.

As soon as the two of them left the villagers' location, she couldn't help but ask:

"Wayne, what if the deer head uses the children to threaten us?"

Wayne was silent for a moment, swung his sword and cut off a poisonous snake that wanted to pounce on the branch, and said:

"We can only say that we try to save the child, but this deer head essence must be eradicated, otherwise, it will only cause more tragedy."

Hearing this, Triss was also silent for a few seconds, as if thinking about something, and then raised her head and said:

"Okay, we can only try to save those children, but Wayne, please give me as much time as possible, I will cast a spell to save the children first."

Wayne nodded, not saying anything more.

The two of them walked through the dense forest for about ten minutes, until they were less than a few hundred meters away from where Triss had marked Link, when the trees in front of them suddenly disappeared, and a strange rocky area appeared.

From a distance, a huge totem stood in the center of a pile of rocks.

Before the two of them could take a closer look at the totem, Wayne heard the sound of something approaching.

"There's an enemy approaching, it should be a wolf, and a troll."

"Let's step back a bit, the terrain here is not suitable for us to fight."

Sure enough, the keen hearing of the witcher allowed Wayne to always anticipate the enemy's opportunity, and when the two retreated to the open terrain suitable for battle, more than a dozen wild wolves and two trolls appeared in front of the two of them.

Without any hesitation, Wayne pulled out three honeycomb bombs from his belt bag and threw them in the direction of the monster, followed by Dragon's Dream.

The monsters that had just emerged from the rocky area were attacked head-on before they could launch their attack, and the Dragon's Dream combined with the honeycomb bomb directly ignited the area in front of Wayne into a sea of fire.

Although the flames did not last long, they still caused a lot of fire damage to the wild wolves, and almost half of the wolf pack lost their combat effectiveness.

Only two trolls wrapped in stones rushed out of the flames without fear, and looking at their red eyes, Wayne knew that any communication was meaningless.

He drew the Startick blade from his waist and rushed forward to fight them, dodging them to keep them from getting close.

The Witcher's combat power with the sorceress was amazing, Wayne only stepped forward to block the trolls' movements for less than two minutes, and Triss had already used a particularly penetrating fire magic, similar to a spell like a fire spear, which directly burned two bloody holes in the chests of the two trolls.

And some of the remaining wild wolves were quickly chopped into pieces on the ground under Wayne's sharp electric blade.

From the attack to the total annihilation of all the enemies, it took less than five minutes, which was obviously greatly beyond the expectations of the deer head, and Wayne could even faintly hear a dull roar coming from the direction of the totem.

Wayne wiped the blood from the electric blade, counted the alchemy bombs in his waist bag, and put a new layer of Quinn's shield on himself, and said to Triss:

"It looks like we're in a hurry."

"Quick, we have to speed up too, we can't give this monster time to react."

Triss nodded, took out a bottle of purple potion from her waist bag, and poured it down with a wrinkled face.

Wayne was a little curious about what the potions used by the warlocks were, but he was prepared to wait until after the battle to ask.

Soon, led by the witcher and followed by the sorceress, the two of them walked through the rocky area for another ten minutes, killing two waves of monsters that wanted to sneak up on them, and soon approached the location of the giant totem.

And as soon as he stepped into the range of the giant totem, Wayne immediately felt that his body had become weak, and there was an invisible force that seemed to be pulling at his soul, making his senses a little blurred.

Triss was clearly more proficient in magic than Wayne, and as soon as this feeling appeared on her, the sorceress said:

"It's dark magic, Wayne, it's supposed to be a dark magic area created by a totem, we better destroy that totem quickly, otherwise, our state will get worse and worse."

Wayne nodded, looking towards the place where the giant totem was, but the scene there made him feel tricky too.

I saw that at the bottom of the totem, which was made of a huge tree as the main body, various animal bones, air-dried corpses and strange things, five children with closed eyes who seemed to have fallen into a coma were being tightly tied to the totem by some green vines.

It seems that if the totem is destroyed, there is a high probability that those children will be crushed to death by the collapsed totem, or ignited by the burning totem.

Not far from the children, a young man with a sharp knife in his hand and a disheveled hair was staring at the two people who came out of the rocky area with a pair of red eyes, and kept muttering something, but because of the distance, no one could hear clearly.

Wayne vigilantly observed the surroundings of the totem, but did not see the figures of other monsters, nor did he see the deer head spirit that should be very large, so he reminded the sorceress in a low voice:

"Be careful, Triss, the deer head should have been hiding, probably trying to sneak up on us."

Triss nodded, holding the fluorescent red orb in her hand, and began to vigilantly observe the surrounding situation, guarding against a possible sneak attack.

After waiting for more than ten seconds and seeing that there was nothing unusual around, the two knew that they couldn't drag it any longer, so they could only cautiously approach the totem to see if they could rescue the child first and then destroy the totem.

Under the influence of dark magic, Wayne felt that his physical strength was rapidly disappearing, although as his physical fitness was also the top existence among witchers, this physical strength was nothing to him.

But Triss next to her is only slightly stronger than ordinary women in terms of physical strength, and obviously can't bear more losses.

When they approached the totem, the young man with a sharp knife and a disheveled head suddenly stood in front of them, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Don't come any closer, witches and sorceresses, you shouldn't have come here, and you shouldn't have to worry about this."

Wayne quietly reached out and removed a short-handled throwing axe from his belt, and asked without any expression on his face:

"Are you Link?"

"You have already avenged your parents, why do you want to hurt these children?"

Link's expression was crazy, he looked up and laughed, and was about to say something, but who knows, Wayne had already thrown the axe in his hand hard, and with a poof, it hit him in the head.

The bones were shattered, blood was overflowing, and the young man had an incredible look in his eyes, and he didn't know why the demon hunter on the other side didn't listen to him and started a sneak attack, which was simply not martial arts.

However, he was only flesh and blood, and no matter what he thought, he was cut into the skull by an axe, and in less than a few seconds, he was already dead.

Wayne looked at Triss, who was also a little stunned, and didn't open his mouth to explain, anyway, regardless of whether this Link was a human who was marked by the deer's head or not, judging from his crimes, killing him was the best option at the moment.

As for what he wanted to say, it didn't matter, and even if he woke up and wanted to repent, so what, should you forgive him?

The dark arts continued, and it was necessary to hurry, Wayne turned to Triss and said:

"Be careful, I'll rescue those kids."

Then, with vigilance, he rushed to the bottom of the giant totem and began to use the sharp blade in his hand to cut off the vines that were tied to the child's body.

And just as he was cutting down most of the vines, Triss, who was on guard not far away, suddenly let out an exclamation.

I saw that under the ground just a few meters away from her, a huge monster suddenly sprang out, and before the two of them could see its shape, a whip composed of vines slashed at Triss's body, pumping her body out.

Wayne didn't have time to think about it, he immediately gave up on the children around him, rushed to Triss's side, sealed his hands, and formed a two-handed quinn shield towards the vines that continued to draw, resisting the follow-up attack.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The power of the vines is not small, and it crumbles Wayne's Quinn shield, but fortunately, his mana is amazing, and it is more than enough to maintain such a shield.

And at this moment, he also saw the figure of the monster that came out of the ground.

Nearly four meters tall, long hands and feet, slender body, limbs and body skin are made of dead bark-like tissue, a body constructed, the head is a huge beast skull, the ends of the skull, and two huge antlers, sure enough, it is a huge deer head.

It seemed to be quite cautious, and did not dare to approach when facing Wayne, but kept manipulating the vines around its body, whipping the shield in Wayne's hand like a whip.

And it's quite cunning, it actually hides in the dirt so close to the totem, and it hides quite naturally, so that neither of them can find out.

Wayne still maintained the Quinn shield in both hands, constantly changing positions, blocking all the attacks of the deer head, although he didn't have time to look back, he still couldn't help but ask with concern:

"Are you alright, Triss?"

It took more than ten seconds for the sorceress's painful voice to reach his ears.

"Don't worry, Wayne, I've got a little bit of a chest injury, but I'm still going to hold on."

Wayne breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and as soon as his thoughts turned, he immediately spoke:

"Hold on, Triss, you go get those kids out and take them away, and I'll hold the deerhead."

"Don't argue, you're injured now, and staying here distracts me."

After a few more seconds, Triss spoke:

"Well, Wayne, you have to be careful, too."

"I'll come to you when I send the child out of the deer's control."
