Chapter 588: Magician

Arca Continent.

Light and darkness alternate, civilization and barbarism coexist.

After the bells of the new era have sounded, the remnants of the old era still stubbornly take root in this land.

While technology is advancing day by day, horrors beyond the imagination of ordinary people are also spreading in the shadows. Only the demon hunters among humans can fight against them.

...

Many miscellaneous memories emerged, and were then absorbed by Fang Yuan in different categories.

After an unknown amount of time, he opened his eyelids and woke up.

As far as the eye can see, there is a light yellow ceiling with mold stains, and the bedding wrapped around it smells of alcohol, but it is still soft and warm.

For this body that has fallen asleep with a big sword on the hard ground countless times, it is undoubtedly heaven.

The floor vibrated faintly, and there was a great deal of din coming from the bar in front.

"The Ax Bar..."

This is a gathering point for the witchers in this area, and it also provides other services. As far as I remember, the taste of rye wine and grilled sausages is still very familiar.

"Hulk! What was the name of this body?"

Fang Yuan was a little speechless: "If you add the ability to transform into a giant, it will be a perfect match..."

At this time, he lowered his head slightly, and his eyes saw the gauze tied to his chest. Even after applying the medicine, he still felt a strange sense of pain and conflict.

"This time...it's really unlucky..."

He didn't move, just lay there, sorting out the memory of this body, and couldn't help but smile wryly.

On this Alka continent, the civilization is roughly equivalent to the period of the first industrial revolution, but there is no unified empire, and the entire continent is fragmented, divided into many kingdoms and federations, and there are chaotic areas that don't care.

Chaos and fighting, war and famine, invade the fragile human life all the time.

And under the chaos on the surface, there is a deeper horror - the family of the night!

They are a general term for strange species, possessing terrifying appearances and strange abilities. They are either hidden among humans, or live in seclusion in the wilderness, but they are cruel and chaotic in nature, and they like to hunt humans for food.

The so-called demons are the highest level of the Night Familia.

According to legend, the first demon in the world came from hell. It is the strongest mother of reproduction and gave birth to a series of family members. At this time, the dark family members on the mainland are all descendants of it.

In ancient times, the children of darkness even ruled the entire continent, established a powerful empire, and drove lamb-like humans with cruelty and fear.

Until the appearance of the first demon hunter finally brought hope to the human world.

Through generations of sacrifices, many battles and blood and tears, the empire of the dark children finally fell apart, and the survivors of mankind ushered in liberation and new life.

But the forces of darkness have not been wiped out.

Especially the apex of the dark children - the demons, after silently licking their wounds, are coveting the new society.

"I swear, I will defend the Holy Light with the long sword in my hand!"

"I swear, I will follow the seven precepts of the demon hunter and hunt monsters forever!"

"I swear, I will strengthen my will and never be deceived..."

...

At the end of the memory is a solemn and solemn ceremony.

A slightly immature novice demon hunter, in the first operation after taking the oath, because he was too excited, he was directly seriously injured by a monster and died...

Of course, only Fang Yuan knows this last point, after all, he has already used the other party's body to come back to life.

"Mother of reproduction? Devil? Dark child... Interesting!"

Thinking of these information, Fang Yuan couldn't help showing a smile.

This world has also been affected by the Heart Demon Realm. If there is no accident, the mother of reproduction must have a lot to do with the Heart Demon Realm.

Even, these monsters may be another form of monsters!

"only……"

He looked at his chest and frowned again.

There, two forces entrenched and clashed constantly, making it even difficult for him to move.

"This should be the power left by the previous monster, the conflict with its own vitality..."

Fang Yuan thought about the training methods of demon hunters, and he had to say that they were quite primitive, staying at the level of physical body and skills, and had to rely on various equipment to fight monsters.

"Also, by drinking holy water, you can increase the activity of your body cells... If you have a chance, you can go and see the production process..."

He vaguely felt something was wrong.

If the demon hunter only had these powers, how could it be possible to overthrow the ancient dark empire? Hand to hand with the devil?

"In the final analysis, this Hulk is just a rookie demon hunter... It's normal to not know the inside story, you have to investigate by yourself. Of course, the most important thing is to recover as soon as possible..."

Fang Yuan closed his eyes, and a blurry curtain of light suddenly appeared in the darkness:

"Name: Hulk (Fang Yuan)

Fine: 1.2 (110)

Air: 0.7 (100)

God: 5.0 (120)

Occupation: Witcher

Status: Frail

Specialties: Medicine [Level 3], Implantation [Level 6] (full level), Fiery Eyes [Level 3], Sealed Body [Ultimate Form]"

"It's this kind of feeling again, being suppressed by a higher power in the heart demon world... just like in the world of purple eyes!"

Fang Yuan opened his eyes: "I need some time and medicine to heal the injuries in my body!"

With his medical skills, he is still sure of curing himself.

Moreover, the power of the entrenched monster made him even more interested in research.

Squeak!

At this time, the door of the room was opened, and a tall figure came in holding a tray: "Hulk... are you awake?"

"Yes, Uncle Jock, did you save me?"

Fang Yuan disguised himself as Hulk, with sincere gratitude on his face.

"You just fainted at that time, I just carried you back from the battlefield... Let's eat something first!"

Jock is a middle-aged man in his forties, with beards all over his face, messy orange-red hair, thick dark circles and eye bags around his eyes, and looks very decadent.

Hearing this, he forced a smile and put down the tray. On it was the fragrant matsutake mushroom soup, buttered bread, and grilled sausage.

"Thanks!"

Fang Yuan raised one hand in pain, picked up the fork and ate slowly.

Seeing his 'stubborn' appearance, Old Jock hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong?"

"Hulk...you, have you ever thought about retiring?" Uncle Jock said reluctantly: "It just so happens that the Ax Bar still needs a waiter, you don't need to do too much work, and you will be able to adapt soon. "

While speaking, his amber eyes were full of pity.

"oh……"

Fang Yuan agreed lightly, and drank the soup with a spoon. The rich cream in it tasted mellow and smooth, very delicious: "Could it be because of my injury?"

This gesture made Jock hesitate a little: "Yes... I have used the 'healing water' for you, but it can't expel the power of the monster in your body..."

Healing water is a strange item used by demon hunters. Even severe injuries and severed limbs can be reconnected as long as they are used in time.

And even if it is useless, it can basically be declared hopeless.

"Therapeutic water? Isn't it cheap? Could it be uncle you bought it?"

Fang Yuan knew very well that the Hulk was so poor before, that if he had a little money, he would buy weapons and supplies, and he couldn't afford the medical treatment at all.

And a standard serving of water, even at the internal price of the demon hunter, still needs ten rubies of the same quality.

"Haha... This little money is lent to you by the uncle!" Qiao Ke patted his chest proudly: "At worst, you will pay me back later!"

"Definitely, I just don't know how you will deal with Aunt Sophia!"

Fang Yuan smiled, thinking of the hidden attribute of the retired demon hunter in front of him - a strict wife.

"Ahem..."

As soon as this was mentioned, Jock suddenly became dumb, coughed dryly for a long time, and suddenly asked, "You don't want to?"

"Of course not!"

Fang Yuan made an excited expression: "I have suffered so much before I finally became a demon hunter. How can I give up at this time?"

In his heart, he silently rolled his eyes, he didn't come here to be a waiter.

"Hey... you have such a stubborn temper since you were a child!"

Uncle Jock sighed.

Hulk is an orphan, and he took care of him a lot during his childhood.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I can't do anything about your injury, but other people in the union may have a solution... You can go to the headquarters to try your luck!"

As if thinking of something, he said with a bit of hesitation in his tone: "Also... the rumored magician also possesses many strange abilities."

"Sorcerer!?"

Fang Yuan's heart trembled, thinking of a certain memory.

There is no absolute light and darkness in the world, gray areas will always exist.

The so-called "magician" is a group of people between light and darkness.

The Night Familia feed on humans, but under certain special circumstances, they will also breed with humans.

If the will of these descendants is firm enough to withstand the influence of chaotic will and not degenerate into monsters, they can retain the appearance of normal people.

After several generations of domestication, adapting the power of this bloodline will develop strange abilities.

Such people call themselves 'magicians', which are different from the Night Familiars and Demon Hunters. They are regarded as neutral characters, and sometimes they even connect with the two sides, acting as middlemen, and conducting some private transactions.

Of course, on the surface, this is absolutely not allowed.

Moreover, due to the influence of the blood in the body, magicians tend to have extreme temperaments and are not very good traders. Occasionally, they will completely degenerate and become monsters. Once discovered, they are also existences that demon hunters will hunt down to death.

Now, Jock actually asked Hulk to go to the magician for help, obviously he couldn't think of any other way.

"Warlocks are dangerous... some are even scarier than the Night Familia, this is just the last suggestion!" Joker said solemnly: "Don't take any risks... Remember, my child, the gate of the Ax Bar is open at any time. open for you!"

"thank you!"

Fang Yuan nodded solemnly, but in his heart, his interest in the group of magicians increased greatly.
