Chapter 147 [Beginning of Falling Bay] Possessed by Evil Spirit

If you are an ordinary person, you will easily be frightened and compromise.

But Dick stood up directly: "Excuse me for not obeying the order."

James stared at Dick for a long time, then looked away, and waved his hand forward as if he was disgusted: "That's it, you can go.

"For the sake of you being given the title by my sister, I forgive you for your rudeness this time. If it happens next time, it won't be so easy."

Dick pursed his lips tightly and turned to leave without saying a word.

When the door was closed, a gust of wind came in, causing the candle lights in the room to sway.

James's expression fluctuated with the candlelight, and then the prince sat upright and issued an order majestically:

"Call Brownie back. I have something to ask him."

"yes!"

Of course, Dick didn't hear Prince James's last words.

At this time, he was already in the courtyard, took over the wooden box containing Ivan's head, and led the horse towards the outside of the city.

When they were at the gate of the city, the soldiers no longer blocked them, and Dick rode away with countless clues in his mind:

[Black Cat Mercenary Group] It seems that the clues have been lost again.

but……

It just seems.

When I talked about the seal issue with James just now, the other party's eyes visibly dodge.

Although it was only for a moment, my dynamic vision keenly captured this detail.

I had been secretly on guard just now, but my demon hunter senses were activated from beginning to end to prevent any unexpected events.

Now it seemed obvious that he knew something.

But judging from his attitude, if he wanted to kill him, he obviously didn't need to summon him, so it could only be done by his cronies or subordinates.

And that letter said that he blocked his father's way. Could it be that he was James' son?

In addition, what is Prince James’s true attitude towards Queen Maeve?

The Royal Family is the most ruthless. Is he really not interested in [that position]?

Queen Maeve has not returned at this time, which is extremely detrimental to the Demon Hunter Order.

Fortunately, Kel's Castle is located in a remote location, and no one knows its location except for a small number of warlocks from the Demon Hunter Order.

And Raven is Queen Maeve's royal warlock, so she won't expose her position.

Besides, the [Huricide] is about to lead the barbarians to invade the North, and when the time comes, his [Berserkers] will still need to be dealt with by demon hunters.

So at least for now, it seems that the Demon Hunter Order is safe.

Thinking this, Dick felt a little relaxed and continued to move forward on his horse.

Two days later, Dick arrived at the last stop before Kyle's Castle - the territory of [Beginning of Falling Bay]. The person in charge here was Duke Amara.

This place is backed by mountains, and after passing through a large jungle to the south, there are the southern countries.

It can be said that most of the conflicts between the northern and southern countries over the years have been settled by Duke Amara alone.

The Duke of Amara is rumored to have very strong military capabilities. Queen Maeve is extremely reassured by his presence here, and he can be considered a close confidant of the Queen.

He and Queen Maeve had led their troops together in Raven City before, and now they were sweeping the Cato Grassland together, but they were not here.

Dick didn't want to stay here any longer and wanted to rest for a night before setting off.

The sky was slightly dark and the city gate was still open. Dick entered the city smoothly and walked on the streets. He found that the architectural style on both sides was similar to that of Crow City, but the temperature was a little warmer.

You are right. The Northern Territory is distributed in a long strip shape from east to west. Shichui Bay is located on the westernmost side of the Northern Territory. The last Northern Territory in the south is where it meets the borders of the southern countries - Rejection. Dragon Castle.

Perhaps because it is not too far away from the southern countries, the temperature in Shizhui Bay is not too low in winter.

After asking passers-by for directions, Dick soon followed the instructions and found a larger pub.

After placing the horse in the stable, he entered the tavern and came to the bar. The waiter behind the counter just raised his head and said, "Oh, here comes another witcher. Stay in the hotel or eat?"

Here we can clearly see the difference between citizens in big cities and villagers in villages.

The villagers often call Dick "Master", and these citizens seem to be used to it, and they don't speak too respectfully.

Dick became interested when he heard this: "Have you met other witchers before?"

"Yeah, I saw it about four or five days ago."

"So what does he look like?"

"It's hard to describe. He's lost weight. It's not ugly anyway, but his smile is a bit scary. But he doesn't look like you carrying two..., oh, three swords on his back.

"You demon hunters don't all carry two swords, so why do you carry three?"

Seeing that Dick just smiled and didn't answer, the waiter didn't care and continued: "He has two crescent-shaped weapons on his waist. I don't know what they are."

Crescent weapon?

Dick was startled.

"Is that person's attitude a little arrogant? Is his tone particularly unappealing?"

"It's like this. I wanted to beat him when I heard the tone of his voice. But he is a demon hunter. Who can beat him? And he paid generously, so I don't dare to care about it."

"He came alone?"

"Yes."

When Dick heard this, he felt something in his heart:

That witcher must be Kayn, I didn't expect him to appear here.

Counting the days, he should have recovered from his injuries by now, and being able to come here means that nothing major happened to him. He might be returning to Kelburg at that time, and maybe he will be able to see this person again in a few days. It’s a bargain, brother.

Knowing that Kayn was safe, Dick felt inexplicably relieved. After happily paying the money, he told the waiter to put more fine horse feed for Huahua and clean the horse's back with a dry brush before going upstairs to rest.

…

The castle at the end of Shizhui Bay was brightly lit.

In a spacious bedroom on the fifth floor, a young girl and a fat dwarf with dark circles under his eyes were looking at the woman on the bed with worry.

The woman was in her forties and was lying on the bed in pajamas, but she closed her eyes and looked a little painful.

Near the bed, a thin middle-aged man in a plain robe was saying:

"Gods above, may your holy name be known, may your holy power come to the world, drive away evil spirits, and protect this person."

At the same time, he held an open iron bottle in his right hand, poured the clear water in the bottle into his left hand, and kept throwing it towards the body of the woman on the bed.

When the water was sprinkled on her body, the woman still closed her eyes, but her face looked even more ferocious, and she struggled violently, as if she wanted to sit up.

The force made the bed sway slightly and creak.

But she didn't sit up in the end, because she had been tied to the bed with several thick and strong chains.

After a while, the woman stopped struggling, the pain on her face disappeared, and she slowly began to snore evenly.

The man in the robe relaxed his expression at this time, screwed the lid on the iron bottle, put it in the pocket around his waist, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at the girl next to him,

"Miss Vanessa, this holy water enchanted by the warlock still has some effect on evil spirits, and Madam Amara is fine for the time being;

"But I am just a priest after all, not a professional demon hunter, and can only treat some common diseases. If you want to eradicate evil spirits, it is better to find a professional demon hunter to help. "
