The Divine Hunter - Chapter 608
Chapter 608 Cat Assassin
The prismatic water blue screen reflects a rich green, the dense weeping willows sway in the wind, and the broad river surface with rippling blue waves is filled with mist.
Lambert was standing in the ooze on the bank, with a frivolous ugly face wrinkled like a bitter gourd, and even the row of mucus at the corner of his eyes revealed sadness. Her hair was messed up like a chicken coop, her razor-sharp hairline was dull, and her taupe leather armor was stained with blood, apparently from a bad battle not long ago.
On his left hand side, the cat sent Aiden to stand with a sword, and his thin cheeks were morbidly flushed, revealing a look of tiredness and haggard.
Triss, who was dressed in a gray-yellow animal skin hunting suit on the right, waved her hand and sprinkled aura of magic power, maintaining the telescopic crystal.
As for the Oaks, he disappeared.
“What’s the situation now?” Roy raised his brows with his hands around his chest, and mocked, “You are not working as bodyguards in Soden, why are you so embarrassed that you fought petrified lizards for 300 times?”
Lambert touched his nose and smiled awkwardly,
“Boy, you didn’t know anything after a month of seclusion. When we got there, we found out that Kayla Metz wasn’t telling the truth. At the beginning, she claimed to hire us to protect the mayor of Soden. By the way, I had a few passionate dates. If you don’t think you can’t go for nothing, it’s time to earn some extra money and go for a ride.”
“Actually guess what? A woman’s mouth isn’t as reliable as the devil!”
Shoulder across from the telescopic mirror gave him a fierce look.
Lambert immediately changed his words eloquently, “Except, of course, Ms. Rita and Ms. Triss.”
“As for Kayla Metz, she actually coaxed us into being a bodyguard for Soden’s new king Foltest! Alas, I didn’t turn my face on the spot because Princess Yada and Triss had a good relationship with you! Reluctantly stay and play.”
Triss heard the red hair on her shoulders trembling and resisted the urge to slap this guy. Who was it that ran over to please Kayla Metz and declared that she wanted to get her pregnant?
Roy also smiled bitterly in his heart, how could witchers be so easily deceived?
Lambert pretended not to see the sorceress’s resentment, shook his head and sighed, looking remorseful.
“Who knew there was a problem! This world is really bad. In broad daylight, King Fu was assassinated at the moment when he was giving a speech to the war-torn Soden people.”
Roy’s heart skipped a beat, no matter what era it was in, assassinating the king was a top priority that shocked the world. .
Although Rita Ned’s face didn’t change, the nails pinching his arm tightened, almost sinking into the flesh.
“Who dares to assassinate the monarch of Temeria, the new king of Soden!”
Roy felt a sense of time and space disorder in his heart.
According to history, Foltest was smeared by the king assassin Leto, disguised as a monk, after 1270, when he met the illegitimate child Louisa Lavaredi gave birth to for him. one strike.
But now it’s only the summer of 1266, and Leto has already joined the Brotherhood and quit his job.
Who will be the assassin again?
…
“Who else could it be but those mad squirrels?” Lambert said. “About fifty people, most of them elves, a few dwarves and gnomes. King Fu gave a speech at the Blue Rose Square, which was rebuilt after the war. While appeasing the crowd, the Squirrel Party created a monstrous fog!”
“Taking advantage of the chaos at the scene, the people ran rampantly, shouting and shouting, and they brazenly launched an attack.”
Speaking of which, this also has to do with Foltest’s policy and Vizima’s Ladies of the Lake-led Virtue Church.
Among the monarchs in the north, King Fu is not so harsh and extreme towards non-human races, which gives the Squirrel Party an opportunity…
“So it’s Francesca’s handwriting again, she’s determined to follow Emhyr all the way to the dark.”
Roy rubbed his temples. This assassination should be the elf queen leveling the obstacles for Nilfgaard’s second invasion. Counting the time, it is not far from the second northern war.
“You suddenly contacted me, just to let me know?”
“Don’t worry, there is another shocking news!” Lambert said with a sad expression, “Pontar and the monarch of Mahakam, Brugi, Angry, Riverdale and the protector of Arland, Forty Sturt has returned to the Yellow Springs, to be with his dead sister and queen.”
Roy heard the sorceress gasping for air, so he glared at Lambert,
“You should learn more from Dandelion. Such poor acting skills can only scare three-year-old children. King Fu is not your descendant. He died, why do you feel sad? And Xiaote’s reaction is obviously wrong. .”
Roy glanced at Triss, who gathered the broken hair on his forehead, wiped the stains on his face, and gave him a sweet smile.
“Oh, you know Ms. Merigold well!” Lamber jokingly grimaced at the sorceress beside him, and Triss shook her hair and ignored him.
“Well, this assassination ended in failure. The high priest of the Virtue Church, His Highness Bai Zhiyada, Triss, Kayla, Feikat, the army, and our three experienced witchers are heavily protected, even if it is Not even a wasp can get close to Foltest. Dozens of attackers are naturally enough.” Lambert glanced at the misty hillside across the river,
“Thirty-eight of the assassins died in the chaos, and eleven killed themselves after being captured.”
“But there were still a few splits left to escape. Foltest was furious and sent a large number of soldiers to hunt down the east. Oaks continued to stay in Soden, and we chased westward to Brugg, by the Chotter River!”
“Boy, since you’ve survived the second mutation, come and help catch the fleeing assassin, we must find him before the Temeria soldiers!”
“What do you mean?” Roy said in surprise, “You don’t want to help the king arrest the assassins?”
“It’s not ordinary people who escaped.” Aiden clenched his fists quietly, with a complicated face and a hoarse voice.
Roy’s heart moved, and he heard him say a name in a deep voice,
“Cat Witcher, Gaitan, my former companion, I remember that face!”
Having been in the Brotherhood for so long, Aiden was about to forget that the cats were sent over to make a living by assassination.
But he really didn’t expect that even today, there are still compatriots who will take this shameful way of life, and it is not an ordinary assassination, but to kill a monarch with a vast territory and great talent.
If he succeeds, the whole of Temeria will set off a **** storm, causing countless casualties.
He emphasized, “Gaitan was originally a rationalist, and he was not negatively affected by the decoction, but only occasionally became overly emotional.”
Gaitan?
Roy listened with a look of surprise, a bald face with scars and a memory flashed across his mind.
In the day after, a deer headed spirit harassed the village of Honorton in Willen, Gaitan accepted the commission to hunt it, but after completing the task, he was led to the barn by the village elders, and was attacked with a pitchfork from behind. In anger, he went on a slaughter and slaughtered the entire village.
Geralt just bumps into him, kicking off a dangerous romp between wolf and cat.
This is the butterfly effect. Because of his own troubles, the assassination of King Fu was advanced, and the assassin also changed from Lesuo to Gaitan who was drawn by the elves.
“I heard that the cat faction is the most prosperous school of elves, and quite a few cat faction witchers worked for the elves in the Blue Mountains in the past.” Roy pondered.
“Quite ancient tradition, few adherents remain, but Gaitan does have some elven blood, and he clearly sees himself as a member of the ancient race.”
Aiden paused and said worriedly,
“Gaitan was hit by Kayla and Feikat’s spells, and suffered heavy sword wounds. We traced the blood all the way to this point, and the river wiped away the traces.”
“But he can’t run far. If he wants to survive, he must find a foothold on the other side to heal his injuries as soon as possible.”
Aiden looked at Roy, his scarlet pupils were slightly wet, and his expression was sincere, “I want to find this misguided brother and give him a hand!”
“That’s right!” Lambert waved his fist aside, excitedly helping out, “Uniting all the witchers who are worth attracting is the purpose at the beginning of the establishment of the club! The meaning of our organization’s existence!”
“Don’t worry, I’ll keep it a secret.” Triss said in a very natural tone, “I want to make sure that guy doesn’t attack any northern monarch, otherwise the country will be turbulent and the people will suffer!”
Is there a mistake, you are obviously King Fu’s bodyguard, but now you have to save an assassin? !
Roy groaned in his heart and fell silent.
Introduced a cat assassin into the Brotherhood and fought against King Fu.
Is it worth it?
The people on both sides of the telescopic mirror held their breaths.
“Then find him first, and then it’s up to everyone to decide what to do with him.”
Roy made the final call,
“Lambert, why are you dumbfounded? Immediately contact Kaiyan, Escal… There is an old saying, the number of people is great!”
“Haha, I knew you kid never disappoints!”
