The Divine Hunter - Chapter 579

Chapter 579 The First Demon Hunter

Through the fog.

Reso of the Viper School appeared in a small room in a dark castle, with empty boxes, blankets, pots and pans, wooden barrels and sundries displayed on the four walls in a mess.

In the corner of the room, a thin and thin boy in a gray linen coat like a prisoner stood on a wooden barrel with his back turned to him. The ground focuses on the bright sky outside the window.

“What are you doing, kid!”

The low, husky voice started the boy and he almost fell off the barrel.

In the next second, his body stretched into a wooden stick, his palms pressed against his thighs, and his head dropped to stare at the toes, but he quickly raised his head and glanced at the intruder, his eyes clever and cunning.

“Sorry! Teacher, I didn’t hide here on purpose… I know I was wrong, please spare me once!”

“What teacher?”

The bald man slowed down his tone, squeezed an ugly smile on his stiff poker face, spread his hands, and signaled that he was not malicious, his expression was like a bloated, naive grizzly bear.

The boy suddenly sighed in relief, and looked at the big bald man like an adult. “You thief, bald weird, where did you come in from? The door of the utility room is clearly locked. It’s hard to follow. Get in through the cracks in the window?”

“Name…” Reso emphasized.

“Huh! Ivar!”

唰——

The big man’s complexion changed suddenly, his cheeks tightened, his eyes stared like two amber lanterns, with a horrible sparkle like a knife, passing over the boy’s thin face with a pointed chin.

A bit familiar.

I can vaguely see the outline of Ivar in the memory, but there is no iconic pair of evil eyes, instead of popular brown eyes, single eyelids.

The boy was taken aback by him, stepped back to the corner, folded his hands on his chest in a defensive posture, and stared at the bald man.

“It’s your turn! What’s your name?”

“Reso…what is this place?”

The boy’s expression became more and more surprised, “Risberg Castle.”

“how is this possible…”

The big bald man muttered to himself, lost in thought, he returned to Risberg hundreds of years ago, and met the arrogant Grand Master Ivar in his childhood?

Am I daydreaming?

“Why don’t you speak anymore?”

“Yvar, how did you get here?”

“There are so many questions, like a grandma!”

The boy pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment,

“Grandpa Cosimo brought me back…”

His expression became very complicated in an instant, grateful and fearful.

“What about before?” The bald man looked at the boy and his eyes became gentle.

“Bai Chang is so big, his brain is as stupid as a pig! Can’t you tell? I… I’m a war orphan. I wandered for a long time. I was caught and tortured by traffickers and almost died. Fortunately, Grandpa rescued me in time. .”

As soon as he mentioned the trafficker, he gritted his teeth, like a hungry wolf pup, with a ray of hatred in his eyes!

“Are you… still used to living?”

“I eat and drink, but the teachers forced me to drink a bunch of colorful and messy herbs all day and night. The dung is as ugly as dung, and I feel like vomiting but can’t vomit after drinking.” The little face wrinkled like bitter gourd, “There are also injections. , Check, exercise, and punish if you don’t obey.”

“Grandpa Cosimo, Uncle Alzu always tells us plasticity.” He cleared his throat, with one hand in front of his belly, imitating awkwardly and ridiculously. , Adults cannot be transformed, they can only collapse into slag, only young lives have ‘plasticity’

“If I hadn’t been able to open my belly to eat all the time, I would have escaped long ago!”

Risberg, Plasticity, Ivar.

Reso is sure.

The place where he is now is the legendary Risberg Castle.

He is witnessing the birth of the first batch of demon hunters!

“Are there any other children besides you?”

A warm smile crossed Ivar’s face,

“There are thirty-seven… Maddoch… Jagoda… Elan… Missi… Aigar… Fraal… Anahad… some are orphans, some are sold to teachers by their parents. Now it’s the turn Did I ask a question?”

……

The mist surged like a tide, interrupting the next conversation.

……

Another dark room.

Vesemir fell into the same strange situation as Reso.

“You said your name is Aijia?”

He looked at the pale face, small nose and small eyes on the wooden bed, the boy who was in a fever, with an unbelievable expression.

The feeling of the great wolf faction faintly felt between this guy’s eyebrows and eyes.

“Listen to what you mean, do you know another Aijia?” The boy looked at the other side’s strange cheek in surprise, old, but without a single hair, beard, or eyebrows, revealing a hint of weird kindness.

Vesemir was slightly lost, unable to find Grand Master Aigar in the mist, but saw his childhood.

The gentle palms stroked the boy’s little head.

Just like what Aijia once did to him.

“Aiga, where are your parents?”

“I, I am an orphan… Wandering near Hidalis, and then Uncle Alzu took me home.”

“Do you like life here?”

He nodded vigorously, a touch of excitement appeared on his simple face.

“There are a lot of brothers and sisters, and they are full of food. No one fights to fight for a meal. Everyone has several new sets of clothes… After drinking medicine, checking and training every day, everyone can play, hide and seek, and paint together. Painting…much more interesting than the wandering days before!”

Aijia’s sickly red cheeks revealed a heartfelt joy, but the back of his left hand, which was placed on the outside of the quilt, was covered with shocking pinholes and bruises.

Vesemir shook his head.

Poor child, is this satisfying?

If you go to Gaowen’s house, will you faint with happiness?

“Isn’t it painful to drink medicine?” Vesemir looked at the scar on his body and sighed, “Can you bear it?”

“But I am also very happy! Everyone is gathered in a room and will never be bored… Experiment, but it is a sacrifice and price, I have no problem at all!”

“I am very grateful to Grandpa and everyone. If I can, I want to stay in the castle forever. I want to be with you forever!”

……

“Your mother’s name is Anahad?!”

Pluton raised his eyes on the bridge of his nose, and his gray-green pupils looked at the boy who was about ten years old in front of him.

Under the cleanly shaved head, that green face has round eyes. When his eyes widened, the whole room was illuminated by the sincere and happy light in his eyes.

He also has thick eyebrows, a round nose, thick and moderate lips, and a slightly fat profile face.

Even if he doesn’t laugh, it makes people feel happy and happy.

When he grinned and showed his baby teeth, the enthusiasm and frankness made the cat vulture want to bend his mouth slightly.

is really a cute little boy.

“Where did I offend you?”

Anahad also mechanically lifted the dumbbell with his left hand, with a habitual bright smile on his face, and looked at this strange man who entered the castle training room from nowhere and called himself a cat and eagle.

“No, you haven’t offended me yet… I just didn’t expect that the cold-blooded and merciless bear faction master in the legend would actually look like this when he was a child.” Pussy Vulture’s pupils shrank and exclaimed, “It’s totally beyond my expectation. How should we learn from each other?

“Cold-blooded and ruthless? Are you talking about me?”

Anahad suddenly turned pale, revealing a touch of vivid guilt, which made people feel inexplicably distressed.

“No, no, I recognized the wrong person.” Pussy shook his head.

“Maybe you are right… I took the initiative to leave my parents and dear brothers and sisters who loved me. I am a ruthless person.”

“What does it mean to take the initiative to leave?” Pussy asked.

“This year’s harvest is too bad, the crops are not harvested, the house is about to be unraveled, and the weather is abnormally cold… If this continues, five younger brothers and sisters will not be able to survive.” Perhaps those who usually lack communication, Anahad put his hands in her hands. His face said everything in his heart, “I can’t help it, someone must make a sacrifice.”

“I am my brother, the eldest child in the family.”

“So, I sold myself to Grandpa Cosimo and left the last sum of money for the family. Enough to survive several famine years and severe winters.”

“Sell yourself, you are such a genius!”

“Actually, it’s not that bad here…” A cheerful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. “Following grandpa to Risberg is at least better than being sold to Skellig. Maybe a few years later, when the teachers finish the experiment, I will still be able to Go back and see your younger siblings.”

“Little bastard, you don’t understand what cruel fate you will face?”

Pluton shook his head, suddenly stepped forward and pinched Anahad’s neck, lifted his feet off the ground, kicked him, like a suffocated fish.

The cat’s eyes are cloudy and uncertain, murderous…

If Anahad’s life ends now.

Will this guy still appear in the future?

Obviously, before the mutation, he was still sentimental and righteous, so he drank the coldest decoction.

Killing him, to some extent, it can be regarded as liberating him, right?

……

The bright light of the magic lamp illuminates the narrow desk in the corner of the room.

A boy about ten years old is holding a small leather book and confronting a man on the opposite side.

He is tall in a black cloak, half of his face is hidden in the shadows, and the other half has eyes with tricolor pupils.

“This is Risberg? So you are Ellen?” Cohen stared at the lifelike goshawk tattoo on the boy’s side, and his skin was covered with goose bumps.

“Are you the new teacher? Why have I never seen you!”

Eland blocked the “Guide to the Virtues of the Cavaliers” in front of his chest, his eyes watched,

I am your future disciple.

Cohen murmured in his heart, and immediately resisted the excitement of seeing the infant idol, showing a sunny smile.

“My name is Cohen. Ellen, can you tell me, why are you here?”

“Don’t let him try to mess with me, why should I tell you?!”

Elan spit on the ground, his face was stubborn, and he shook his head in disdain.

“Don’t be nervous, I just want to chat with you, you answer first, and I will do you a favor later in exchange. You see, I am an adult.”

The sincerity in Cohen’s words touched him.

“Speaking counts! Otherwise, I will attack you if I don’t sleep every day!”

Elan muttered, as if thinking of a certain painful memory, a struggling appeared on her face full of exotic style with a high nose bridge and deep sunken eye sockets.

“What else can it be?! My mother, a pirate of Skelliger, was more rude, grumpy, and powerful than most men. She took me on a boat until I was ten years old. When I inherited her temper, she instead Tired of me, I can’t stand me, when I was a cumbersome eating and drinking for nothing…Alzu just passed by and paid a high price, which was what she wanted!”

Ailan looked at Cohen in disbelief, with a hint of mean pleasure on his face.

“Yes…My mother sold me.”

“The hypocritical Alzuo took me into the castle, threw me this broken book, let me study all day, talk about self-cultivation, and smiled at me falsely, saying that I’m’very like him’! But I know that he is secretly playing wicked ideas, he is using poison to harm me!”

Is this really the Griffin pioneer with decent style and knightly virtue, Ellen?

Cohen twitched the corners of his mouth.

Is this a grumpy boy who entered puberty early?

The only exception is the chaotic energy permeating him. He is a source of law!

“Elan, how do you get along with other kids?”

“Except for Jagoda in Aden, the other stinky boys are a group of unweaned children, fools who don’t know anything. They are filled with a pile of poison every day and treated as sad experiments, but they are grateful to the wizard! ”

“You want to ask me how I get along with them? This castle is like a stunned chicken coop. They are the noisy, annoying roosters, hens, and chicken cubs!”

Cohen was silent.

Elan was rude in his speech, but his words were not rough. The drugs and poisons tried by the grass were no different. Especially, as the first batch of experimenters, they used imperfect decoctions and bore the greatest risk of death.

“Who is Jagoda?”

“A girl who is sick with me, the best person in the world, treats me better than my unconscionable mother! When I leave this prison, I will marry her!”

Elan has a stern face and a serious face, as if to speak rightfully.

“A girl in Jagoda is also participating in the experiment? Drink medicine and check the body every day?”

Cohen remembered that there was no girl in the first batch of witchers.

Until the later cat pie.

Elan took a deep breath after hearing the words, bit her nails tensely, a trace of worry appeared on her face.

“Yes! Twelve girls reacted more violently than twenty-six boys. Poison is more harmful to them!”

“The pain they endure is more painful than having a baby!”

Elan spoke for a while and looked straight at Cohen.

“It’s time for you to exchange your promises. In any case, let Jagoda take some time. Don’t let the mage fill her with medicine for these two days-I beg you!”

“I will do my best!”

Cohen’s words were drowned in mist.

However, the scenes in the fog appear irregularly, and the leaps and bounds are extremely great.

This is destined to be an unfulfilled promise.

……

Hazy drizzle enveloped the fortress between the cliffs.

Several magic crystal chandeliers flickered on the ceiling, illuminating the laboratory on the top of the castle.

Alzu and Cosimo stood side by side in front of the windowsill, looking across the cemetery on the side of the mountain below. Among the densely packed tombs, there was another new grave——

A hunched-back man is slowly filling a petite body that has lost his breath with a shovel.

She has round eyes, twisted facial features, and a horrified expression on her face. It is obvious that she has suffered a lot of sins before she died.

Alzu took a deep breath, and lightly swiped his nails on the sheepskin manual, and Jagoda’s name was divided in half.

You can see another ten cracked names next to this page.

“Do you regret it, Alzu.”

Cosimo looked at his disciple kindly.

“There is no regret at all. To eradicate the monsters in the world, and to save all the compatriots, sacrifice and price must be paid! This is also their trial. Their previous lives are both tragic and pitiful, and they are ignored by everyone like ants and are insignificant. . But as long as they survive, they will transform, possess superhuman strength, and better survive in this dark world.”

He collected the roster, and an old lily badge appeared in his palm, his five fingers slowly wriggling, rubbing, “I have a hunch, there will definitely be winners in this mutation transformation!”

After firm words.

Screams one after another.

More than twenty operating tables were full of “testers”, all children under ten years old, their limbs **** with leather straps. Coughing, gasping, and sobbing in tremors.

A person wearing a surgical apron and a bird’s beak mask shuttled back and forth in front of the operating table, carrying bottles of boiled medicine and pouring them into the tester’s mouth.

Finger flashes colorful magical auras, sweeping across the body of the subject, and recording data.

……

Roy stood at the entrance of the laboratory, his figure buried by the fog.

During this time, he witnessed a series of cruel experiments by the wizards in Risberg.

Compared to the Trial of Grass in the House of Gawain, the blood and pain here are ten times higher.

A kind of appalling and undetermined drugs are injected into the trialer’s body.

Sadly, he was unable to interfere. After many attempts, he was sure no matter what effort he made in the previous scene.

It is difficult for    to have the slightest influence on the next scene.

He became a complete bystander hidden in the dark.

His eyes were pitying, and he passed the operating tables with a little empathy.

A group of immature testers struggled and wailed, or yelled in horror, or the sheep had a seizure like a seizure, blood and foam at the mouth, or silent tears.

Among the group of wizards, in addition to Alzu and Cosimo, he also saw the familiar Altoran.

“Grandpa Cosimo! Uncle Alzu, I am so hurt, I am dying! Help me! Help!”

Ival wailed desperately, then suddenly roared fiercely,

“I haven’t killed all the **** human traffickers in the world. I haven’t ended all the wars. I don’t want to die!”

“My Jagoda, give her back to me! You brutes, demons!”

The tears and snot on Ellen’s face flooded his side tattoos, and he glanced at a group of experimenters with fierce eyesight, his eyes burning with anger!

“Woo…” Aiga on the operating table swayed like a fish jumping ashore, turning her head to look at her companion who was tortured to death.

“Hold on, brothers!”

Even if he was in such pain, he was still helplessly cheering for everyone, “Keep on living! No one is missing!”

Anahad straightened his body, his eyelids twitched, his temples stabbed like needles, his eyes crooked and his mouth was slanted, and his head was sweating profusely. There seems to be a knife to cut his flesh with one knife!

The scene of the family’s parting appeared before her eyes.

“Dad, mom, Fraser, Caddul wait for me, wait for me to come back!”

Roy sighed and turned his eyes to the shadow on the other side of the door.

He always felt that there was someone there.

But he can’t see…

at the same time,

Hidden in the mist of the same door, Resso, Vesemir, Cohen, and Pussy, all looked at each other’s position.

He is clearly at the door of the laboratory, but he can’t see the other person’s hair.

It seems to be separated by a mysterious barrier, and it does not seem to be in the same world.

……

The fog changes and squirts.

Time flies by at your fingertips.

In the brightly lit laboratory, the scene of the first trial of green grass in history moves forward rapidly

Every time the witchers blinked, the trial passed for several days.

The experimenter with the beak mask kept giving medicine, checking, and moving the corpse.

There are more and more tombs under the castle, and the number of children on the operating table is declining.

On the 30th day, all the girls among the trialists died, leaving only twenty boys. Sometimes they scratched their clothes frantically, yelled, and sometimes they were strangely quiet.

On the fiftieth day, five more went away, and the remaining fifteen boys fell into a deep coma without exception. Rarely wake up, wake up and start to vomit until only bile is left in the vomit.

On the seventieth day, there are ten children left, with epileptic seizures, bleeding from seven holes, and dull eyesight.

In the next two weeks, five more names were crossed out on Alzu’s rollout, but the remaining symptoms gradually stabilized.

Smooth breathing and flushed face.

Ninety days later.

The remaining five boys of the first thirty-eight children woke up from a nightmare trial in sweat, and they opened their numb eyes.

The pupils are colorful, sharp upright and shaped like beasts.

Five first-generation demon hunters were born under the witness of the younger generations in the mist——

They are called Maddok, Elan, Aigar, Ivar, Anahad…
