Chapter 138 Qualification for Redemption

It's like a dream.

Reality and illusion are intertwined, in joy, pain, numbness, and driven by instinct.

This was really like a dream like this. If possible, he would rather wake up right now.

It was a demonic look, coming from all kinds of glances around him. The young hunter was like an empty shell, sitting slumped on the cold floor.

Next to him, the female magician Leni was like a mirror shattered by all the nightmares.

He seemed to see her split body, her body, her body, her eyes... humiliation, grief and anger, despair, and eyes that were empty.

"I suddenly discovered that it was not as interesting as I imagined." The voice of the owner of the castle sounded again.

It instantly aroused the extremely fragile nerves of the young hunter... The young hunter subconsciously raised his head and met the cold, ruthless eyes of the owner of the castle, as if looking at an insignificant insect.

"Oh... suddenly it became interesting again." Suddenly there was another smile on the face of the owner of the castle.

The young hunter seemed to notice something in the castle owner's playful gaze. He almost used up all his courage and turned his head suddenly.

“Leni, don’t—!” he screamed, “Don’t—!!”

At some point, the female magician sat up and held up a dagger in both hands - this was the dagger she kept close to her body.

Hearing the scream of the young hunter, the female magician glanced at him expressionlessly... In the midst of this look, Leni without any hesitation stabbed the dagger she held high directly into her throat. .

"No--!!"

Amid the lung-splitting screams, she fell directly to the ground and turned into a truly shattered mirror.

The young hunter crawled to the side of the female magician in pity and fear... There was not even a trace of pain on her face, and her eyes were even calm.

He was also so peaceful after death, looking at him calmly, as if to say:

——Please don’t touch me again.

"Ah...ah——!! Ah!!"

The young hunter held his head in his hands...but the bloody roulette wheel suddenly turned, and a beam of blood light shot directly at the female magician's lifeless body.

The next moment, she disappeared into the [Chessboard].

The young hunter knelt down on the ground in despair... Beside the [Chessboard], the Masters on the castle side seemed to him like one dark mountain after another.

Surrounding him, surrounding him, blocking his way forward and retreating, and looking at him playfully - looking at which one of him is the ugliest.

"You promised me... you promised me that you would let her go! You lied to me... you lied to me——!!"

"In fact, I didn't even make a move." The owner of the castle said calmly: "From the beginning to the end, I didn't move a step. She ended it by herself. You saw it with your own eyes, didn't you?"

"I kill you--!"

The young hunter rushed towards the owner of the castle desperately.

How could he be the opponent of this powerful vampire noble? The servant beside him could repel the young hunter with just one blow without even having to take action from the master of the castle.

The person who took action was the family doctor in this castle.

The young hunter fell to the ground and kept vomiting... The family doctor of the castle squatted beside the young hunter, narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Don't do it, I am very good at dismemberment."

The young hunter looked at the smiling family doctor with fear.

I saw the family doctor... Dr. Gers put the action dice into his hands at this time, and said with a chuckle: "Come on, congratulations on your qualification as a survivor... Next, end this game." Let’s play.”

The young hunter stared blankly at the dice in his palm... His palms were trembling.

"Sneff! Do you hear me? Snev! Are you okay out there? It's been a long time here. Did something happen? Sneff! Can you hear me? I'm here Something happened here in the Land of Elves, and I met the captain of the guard of a temple named..."

That was the voice of the servant who was partnered with the young hunter.

But he gradually couldn't hear his servant's voice... He was afraid of hearing his voice, afraid of hearing the voice of Leni's lover.

What is Geralt saying...what does he want to say...listen clearly, but he can't hear it, he doesn't want to hear it, he doesn't want to hear it, and he doesn't even want to pay attention to it.

"Sneff! Talk! What happened? Did something happen... Where is Leni? Sneff! Answer me!!"

——Ah... so annoying.

"Sneff! Can you hear me! Sneff-!"

——It's really... really annoying.

The young hunter's palms were still trembling... In front of him, the family doctor of the castle came closer, and whispered something in his ear, "Mr. Vali promised to let you go, so next you As long as your servants team up with ours, you will be safe... However, I don't know if your servant comes out alive and knows what happened..."

The young hunter's eyes suddenly shrank... but Geralt's voice continued to ring in his ears.

"Actually, there is another way that can help you avoid this kind of thing... As long as your followers encounter some accidents and can't get out... As long as you let your followers go to the upper left corner of [Roaring Forest] The position of the second grid will not exceed six action points. If you are lucky, you can even do it with one point throw."

The palms of my hands trembled even more.

The young hunter looked blankly, and he found that the guys in the castle in front of him once again showed their appraising eyes.

They say something to me.

"Don't listen to him. Wait until your companions come out alive. As long as you blame all this on us, then you are just a victim. You don't even need to say anything, it is enough to make your companions hate us. ...Originally, it was full of hatred.”

"If it were me, don't leave this trouble behind...Friendship and other things, of course, your own life is more precious, not to mention that you have already committed such a despicable betrayal, and wanting to beg for forgiveness is just wishful thinking. "

"Why is this? Your intentions are good. As long as you confess to your companion, he will definitely forgive you!"

It was as if they were thinking about the young hunter...their voices.

The young hunter was trembling, and he stretched out his palm little by little, wanting to throw the dice into the [chessboard]... He could no longer hear the sound, and could not see the eyes that were sizing him up.

The dice is getting closer to the [Chessboard]... As long as he turns over his palm, there will be a decisive throw.

"Me? My name is Toshela! From now on, the job of carrying the luggage will be left to you, newcomer!"

——Why should I think of it at this time?

"Geralt, swordsman, welcome to join our team. You are young, but I can see your bravery in your eyes... Sneff, this is a name I will remember for the rest of my life."

——Hear it at this time.

"Leni, magician...by the way, your face is red, you're cute, aren't you?"

——Hear it again.

"Sneff, are you okay?"

That was her voice that had passed away, gently rising in the young hunter's heart like a tide... The moment this ripple spread, the fingers that were about to let go suddenly tightened their grip.

The young hunter held the dice in his hand tightly and did not throw it... He raised his head and stared at the owner of the old castle with boundless anger and fatal understanding.

"Devil——! You should die——!!"

"Well, I gave you a chance." The owner of the castle shook his head... He was not even willing to take action, but just glanced at the maid beside him.

One of the twin maids stepped out. It was unknown whether she was the older sister or younger sister. She simply and easily pierced the heart of the young hunter with her palm.

When he landed on the ground, his eyes gradually dimmed, and he vaguely saw a circle of bloody [Roulette] appearing in front of him, as well as the smiling face of the maid who was licking the blood from her fingers.

[Roulette] Many bloody arms appeared.

At this time, the young hunter also used up the last bit of strength in his life to stretch out his hand... towards them.

"I didn't vote...I won't vote this time..."

He seemed to smile.

…

…

Clang...clang.

The sharp blade that fell to the ground bounced slightly after the first impact, and then hit the floor again, making the reverberation of its impact.

As her voice rose and fell, the seriously injured maid Tina suddenly opened her mouth. Amid the sense of disorientation, she subconsciously said: "What just happened was..."

She discovered that Dr. Gers next to her had the same expression at this time.

"In the past..." Dr. Gers shook his head, confused and even more unbelievable, "Why at this time..."

suddenly.

"Wally——!!"

Mr. Sneff's voice sounded again, so decisive, so sharp and firm.

He suddenly picked up the sharp blade on the ground and raised it!

"Did you see it!" Mr. Sneff shouted loudly at this time: "I didn't do what you wanted! You devil... did you see it! My choice! I didn't vote!!"

The raised sharp blade finally pierced into the heart of young Vali - young Vali also had a confused expression at this time.

Mr. Sneff instantly twisted the handle of the blade with force, and strange distortions suddenly appeared on the face of young Vali.

Young Vali's cheeks twitched and twitched... His eyes met Sneff's eyes.

His lips were trembling, and some words seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of his throat. However, in the end, there was no sound at all, only intermittent sounds, like the sound of a water pump unable to pump water.

"I didn't kill my companion!!"

Mr. Sneff used force again, and the sharp blade still pierced the young Vali's body, and stabbed it deeper again.

"This is... really an imperfect... very... very... day... ah..." Young Vali's eyes dimmed little by little, "I don't want to die... I don't want to die!! I don't want to die!! !!”

Like an extinguished wick... extinguished.

"Owner……"

Plop.

The terrified maid grabbed her face with both hands and let out a piercing scream...Suddenly, like crazy, Tina rushed out in an instant with a weapon in hand.

Dr. Gers did not stop her, but just watched everything happen calmly - until the weapon in Tina's hand pierced Sneff's chest from behind.

Bah——!

She drew the weapon and thrust once.

Bah——!

She drew the weapon again...and continued thrusting.

Again and again.

Until Mr. Sneff finally fell in a pool of blood... Tina threw away the weapon in her hand, rushed directly in front of the young Vali, and shook the young Vali's body vigorously.

The owner of the castle failed to give his maid any response... He had no breathing, no heartbeat, no life, and was already a corpse.

But his body was still nailed to the pillar with the sword light... It was like an execution pillar - she wanted to pull the sword light away, and grabbed the sword light again with both hands, but her arms were cut off several times in an instant. Ten terrible wounds.

Dr. Gers shook his head, walked towards Tina in an instant, and struck her lightly from behind, knocking the maid lady unconscious.

The doctor looked back at Mr. Sneff, who was in a pool of blood, and frowned. He muttered, "Although I don't know where that...that dream just now came from, but in the end he had to make an investment, maybe For the young hunter in the dream, it is the last and most insignificant redemption. Although... this is just a dream. You can rest in peace, Sneff."

As Dr. Gers spoke, he felt as if something was approaching... But he looked around, but could not find anything.

He shook his head and directly picked up Tina's body. He took one last look at the young Vali, said nothing, and went straight to find a way to leave.

A small light and shadow had actually flown from a distance at this time, and stayed beside Mr. Sneff... The small light and shadow grew little by little, and gradually turned into a human figure.

Female figure.

…

…

In the dim haze, the only thing he could see was a figure glowing with brilliance... It seemed to be the figure... and face that he had dreamed of countless times, and had secretly watched countless times in his dreams.

"Is that you... Leni?"

The female light and shadow slowly approached the old and ugly body in the pool of blood.

"Leni...are you here...to pick me up..."

It stood quietly next to Mr. Sneff, looking at him silently... Suddenly, the female figure gradually split... It separated into two more figures.

Three shadowy figures with blurred faces were standing next to the old hunter in a pool of blood.

"Toshela... and... and... Geralt..." The old hunter's face showed a look of hope and relief, "You... came to pick me up too... It's great... "

The old hunter smiled, it was the last bit of strength left in his life... He stretched out his hand with difficulty.

The three glimmering figures also stretched out their hands to him at this time.

In the hand-to-hand exchange, the old hunter only felt that his body became lighter... He seemed to be flying, they entangled him, took him, flew into the sky little by little... took him away.

He gradually became calmer, "I finally... finally saw you again..."

He wanted to see the faces of his companions clearly again - at the end of his life, he tried hard not to let his thoughts stop at this moment.

Finally, he succeeded in seeing the faces of the lights and shadows... those were indeed faces he was familiar with.

Toshela looked at him expressionlessly.

Geralt looked at him expressionlessly.

Leni... looked at him expressionlessly - it was the same look she had when she committed suicide, the same look.

Looking at him, they all let go of their hands.

"no, do not want--!!"

The moment they let go, Sneff felt his body falling rapidly... falling from their hold, falling towards an abyss-like place.

They looked at him, expressionless.

"No! Don't give up on me!! Don't give up on me...don't...don't give up on me..."

In an instant, he suddenly understood that they were not trying to take him away... they were just trying to throw him into this terrible abyss.

From beginning to end.

——Legend has it that only those with the purest hearts can see the elves in the woods... So, have you seen the elves in the woods, Sneff?

"I...I can't see."

…

…

"Not everyone..." Boss Luo slowly opened his palm in the wind, and a small light shadow flew from the distance again and fell into his palm, "Everyone is qualified to be saved... …This is what you…what you want.”

The small ball of light was now shattering little by little in Boss Luo's palm.

When it peeled off all the shells, only a tiny bit of starlight remained... Finally, the starlight turned into a small peridot.

"What is this?" Alaya in white asked with a hint of curiosity.

Boss Luo rubbed her head and said softly: "It's something they think is worth keeping... The days of adventure are still very interesting."

"Remuneration?" Alaya in white analyzed calmly.

Boss Luo just smiled and said nothing.
