The elite team of witchers led by Hasselblad and the investigation team led by Hao Ren met as scheduled in front of the family hall, and when the two sides met suddenly, except for Hao Ren and a few of them, everyone was subconsciously nervous, Wayne and Hesperith still maintained their composure on the surface, but the brilliance of magic had begun to appear in their hands, and the demon hunters clenched the crossbows and holy silver daggers in their hands one after another, and the atmosphere of the scene became tense in an instant.Even if they were prepared before, after all, they were mortal enemies for 10,000 years, and this reaction to battle immediately after meeting has almost become an instinct engraved in their bones, not that they can be suppressed with some psychological preparation.As for Lily, who was dangling the sign......
This was ignored.The young witcher subconsciously raised his crossbow to aim at the aliens on the other side of the square, and Wayne responded with his fangs bared in a threatening gesture, and the atmosphere of the battle became imminent, while Vivien just looked at the confrontation indifferently and nodded to Hasselblad from a distance: "What, are you really ready to fight?"
Are the witchers now degraded to the point where they can only think with their muscles?
”"Don't do it yet," Hasselblad raised his hand to stop his men, and then nodded to Vivien, "Your Excellency the Countess, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”The two "leaders" - at least on the witcher's side believe that Vivien is the leader on the other side - kept a short distance and exchanged two sentences, so the atmosphere eased slightly, and the witchers kept their weapons on high alert and slowly lowered their weapons, but the Leta Spell Card in everyone's hands remained active.Wayne and Hesperith are the same: despite their ostensibly peaceful gestures, they are in a state of being ready to rise up to fight.This is the maximum restraint that can be maintained when the alien and the witcher meet head-on.Vivien was already very satisfied with this situation, and she showed a smile: "That's good, I'm not happy to see you fight and kill all day long, how many years, isn't the hatred enough to be consumed." ”Most of the witchers were looking at Vivien curiously, some of them had only heard of the name of the "Countess who summoned the Red Moon" but had not seen it, and when they saw this alien ancestor who was said to be the oldest in history and older than the origin of the witcher organization, Rao was a hunter who had been educated in hatred since childhood, and it was inevitable that he would cast a look of awe.Hasselblad ignored the actions of his subordinates, and he took a few steps forward with Bai Huo and the dark-skinned and bald man, "I think we don't need to talk about those unnecessary greetings when we meet, everyone knows what they're here for today."
I don't know what you suggest?
”Vivien looked at the warriors Hasselblad had brought with her, and said casually, "Let's do it together." ”As soon as these words came out, not only those ordinary demon hunters began to stir, but even Hasselblad and Bai Huo were a little surprised, and the two of them said in unison: "Act together?!"
”Vivien nodded seriously to show that she was not joking, and then turned slightly sideways to reveal the family hall behind her: "You can go in and see for yourself, this situation is different from anything you have dealt with before." ”Hasselblad glanced at Vivien quizzedly, and strode into the Ancatro House hall with his head down, several master witchers following him.After a few moments, Hasselblad led the men out of the hall, his face almost clouded overhead, a mixture of extreme seriousness and consternation, he waved his hand to the warriors outside to signal everyone to calm down, and then turned to Vivien, "Just do what you want." ”The demon hunters all had different expressions when they heard the leader's decision, some were surprised, some were unacceptable, and some were at a loss.These hunters have been educated in absolute hatred of aliens since childhood, and the strange phenomenon of "innate hostility" has permeated every hunter for all the years since they were born, and there is no such option as "cooperating with aliens" in their brain circuits, so Hasselblad's words seem like a fantasy to many hunters.But after a commotion, no witcher came forward to object: Hasselblad was the absolute leader of the team, and as a respected "Elder" hunter, he was only responsible to the twelve "saints" at the highest level, and his orders could be regarded as decisions of the Supreme Council of Elders when he was out and about, which could not be questioned.Vivien tilted her head slightly, "Wayne, you're okay with that." ”Wayne exhaled, a strange expression on his face, "Everything is up to you."
But......
This is a rare experience. ”A group of demon hunters reluctantly came together with Hao Ren and them, and the most bizarre "joint investigation team" in history could be regarded as forcibly blended together.Hao Ren never thought that the atmosphere formed by people gathering together could be so weird, he walked in the middle of the team and felt goosebumps all over his body, the kind of atmosphere where everyone was vigilant, snooping, hostile, nervous but no one dared to do it first made people feel like they were on pins and needles.And he must be the only one who feels this way, even those demon hunters themselves are all tense and bruised, Hao Ren thought for a moment, this situation is a bit like a large group of people holding gas canisters together, and then they suddenly found that someone might be planning to smoke a cigarette to calm down......
Lily was quite sensitive to the atmosphere, she came to Hao Ren's side uncomfortably, her tail swelled like a sword mound: "Landlord, these people really can't fight, right?"
”"It should ......
You can't fight," Hao Ren glanced at Vivien and Hasselblad uneasily, "These two seem to be able to calm the scene." ”The united investigators walked towards the family hall, but Hesperius quietly approached Hasselblad: "Long time no see."
Last time......
It's still in Athens, right?
”Hasselblad had noticed Hesperith just now, and the white fire and bald man beside him also knew about the feud between the "goddess of dusk" and Hasselblad, so they both nervous when Hesperius suddenly leaned over.However, the expression on Hasselblad's face did not change: "Long time no see, Hesperith."
Your Hurt ......
Okay. ”"Thank you to some strange 'doctor,'" Hesperius said faintly, without any sadness or joy in his expression, "but you, who seem to be still blind." ”Hasselblad's gaze drifted slightly to Vivien, and he smiled slightly self-deprecatingly, "It's an honor to be blinded by that one."
Anyway, I remember when you were in the Athenian shelter and you rushed out like crazy, and I was worried that you would do the same this time. ”Hesperith gently stroked the place where there was once a brain hole on her forehead, and her smile could not tell what she was thinking: "Heh—it seems that even her personality has recovered after taking the arrow out." ”Hasselblad's expression was indifferent: "It seems that I accidentally made a peaceful 'god' tyrannical back then." ”Hesperius looked at Hasselblad for a moment, her eyes glistening with a twilight amber glow, but in the end she just nodded slightly, and retreated to Vivien as if nothing had happened.Hasselblad, on the other hand, maintained his usual cold, serious expression, and the conversation seemed to have no effect on him.The two bitter rivals with deep hatreds and grudges talked a few words so plainly, but the onlookers were pinched in a cold sweat.After they each retreated, Hao Ren was a little confused, and he touched Vivian beside him: "What do these two mean?"
”"'I still remember what you did back then, but now the conditions are not suitable, so let's not fight for now.'""
Oh, I'll get it as soon as you translate that......"
Although the unbearably tense atmosphere between the witchers and Wayne and Hesperius remained untenable, the atmosphere waned as soon as the crowd entered the hall: the corpses of the witchers in the hall left the warriors brought by Hasselblad to no avail.They immediately went to check on each body, and soon several of the important people were identified."
This is Master Abaddon!""
Master Croanne is here!""
The body of Elder Marduk has been found!"
The reports of the demon hunters sounded everywhere, and they didn't care about confronting Hao Ren anymore at the moment, one by one they either checked the corpse, or checked the magic residue in the hall, or checked the destruction of the hall itself to reverse the battle here at that time, and the scene suddenly became busy and noisy.Although these witchers come across as a gang of stubborn and violent people, it has to be said that they are really experts in this field.At least it's much more professional than Hao Ren.Vivien, on the other hand, led Hasselblad to Amtura's corpse: "Do you know this?"
Is it Amtura?
”Hasselblad recognized, "That's right, it's him."
Well?
This is what he left behind?
”His gaze fell on the message from the pillar beside Amtura.
