Chapter 2819 Hunter's Warning
The cat looked extremely excited, running around, and finally jumping onto the armor box where the "Golden Lion Armor" was stored. Then it lay on it, staring at Shad with its big amber eyes and wagging its tail.
Shad had already opened the package given by Sister Defulin. There were many things in the cloth that had rotted and smelled because of being buried deep underground. Not to mention the useless items, several bottles of potion had obviously deteriorated due to improper storage. The remaining ore was still of some value. It looked like a piece of silver ore.
There were three other important items. The first thing Shad saw was the familiar Demon Seal. This was the symbol of the Demon Hunter and the third one he had. The second one he gave to Iluna.
"But what do I need so many of these rings for? I don't intend to expose other people to frequent contact with demons."
But anyway, this is also a good collection. If Shade meets the right person in future adventures, he can consider entrusting the third ring to the other party.
Of the remaining two, one is a very thick book, but there is no need to worry whether it can still be read because the book is a relic and relics will obviously not be damaged by the environment.
The cover of the book was black, with the title written in white letters on it - "A Demon Hunter's Notes".
The back of the book was also pure black, but it had the same symbol as the Demon Hunting Seal on it, which represented the exorcism of demons. At the bottom, it was written in a dark red color like blood:
[Are you ready to accept the fate of the witcher? ]
Shade raised his eyebrows:
"This, isn't it, the item that will be passed down from the witcher?"
But he said that he had no intention of becoming a witch or a witcher, so Shad had no intention of opening the book. Instead, he rewrapped the book with the rag in awe, intending to wait until he had determined the nature of the relic before opening it.
As for the last remaining item, it was a rough black stone that Shade could feel the demonic power from even with his eyes closed. The demonic power of the stone was so strong that he even felt that it might be part of a demon.
But the fact that it was able to pass through the [Space Maze] and be brought back by Shade means that it has lost its activity.
At first, Xia De didn't understand why the hunter carried such a thing with him, but he soon remembered that the power that the hunter let the soul of the old woman in the village pass on to the later generations was [Remaining Advice], so he understood.
He put the Demon Hunting Seal on his hand and blinked at the black stone:
"The remaining advice."
Sure enough, a string of glowing white runes immediately appeared above the stone, and they were written in the common language of Carsenrick:
[There is a mithril vein in the Vesta Forest. I came here to forge new weapons, but I found unimaginable evil here, and thus discovered the fire demon - Dezast. Later, the demon is not the key. I have decided to sacrifice myself to seal the demon.
Be careful - the tree has transformed into a human, be careful of those who give you guidance, I met the devil because of this, but I was willing to sacrifice myself. 】
"Mithril vein? Could this be mithril ore?"
Shade looked at the ore he had just played with, and then thought about what it would mean to him if he could really find a mithril vein. But then he thought of the hunter from a hundred years ago who still did not leave his name, and he couldn't help feeling sad about it.
The "she" beside me smiled and asked:
[Since the tree has transformed into a human, who is the human? ]
"Yeah, who is it?"
(Little Mia is running.)
It was raining heavily in Vistalin today. As soon as Shad came out of the tree hole, he was immediately soaked by the rain. Obviously, no sound of rain could be heard inside the tree hole.
This was the heaviest rain in the forest this autumn that he could remember. Even the elf girl who lived in the tree house rarely went out to do anything. When Shade went to bring her breakfast, he curiously asked how the chocobos in the forest would survive in such heavy rain, and the elf girl gave a very simple answer:
"They have their own nests in this forest. These little guys have lived here since the last century. They know this place much better than I do."
After saying that, he looked Xia De up and down again:
"Yesterday's demon hunting operation seemed to be going smoothly, right?
You are very different now than when we met yesterday. From now on, when you walk in this forest, you don't need to wear the wreath of green star flowers I gave you. With your current affinity for nature, the forest will automatically make way for you. If you are willing to learn spells related to nature, you will be more talented than others. "
This was the improvement that Shade gained after absorbing the curse of the “Great Tree” more than thirty years ago, but the benefits of “Nature Affinity” are obviously not limited to these.
In addition to delivering breakfast, Shade also took out the burning spark branch that the doctor gave him last night. Because this branch is made of the World Tree, it cannot be turned into a toy, but even if it gets wet on a rainy day, it will not affect the sparks on it.
"Look at this, can you tell what this is?"
"A branch of the World Tree."
The elf girl just glanced at it and said:
"It's made of the same material as the Ocarina of Time in the flowerpot on the windowsill behind me, and the key around your neck. What's special about it is that all the branches of the World Tree that exist in the material world are 'not fresh', after all, the father tree has been gone for many years. But this branch is still fresh."
She waved the branch and placed it beside the table:
"Leave this here with me and take it away when you need it."
Xia De nodded and had no objection to this.
When Flora braved the rain and rushed to the Accordion Hotel in the city, she did not finish the fifth oil painting as she said early this morning. It seemed that she had a heart-to-heart talk with Miss Danister until very late last night.
But at least the red-haired girl didn't look so angry anymore, and she looked normal when she greeted Shad. But everyone tacitly stopped talking about Ms. Helena Carter, and Shad decided to talk to her about the astrologer Mr. Euclid in a few days.
When little Mia crawled out from the chest of Shad's coat, Shad only mentioned to them the items in the package that Sister Defulin found in the deserted village.
As for the relic book "Monster Hunter's Notes", neither the witch nor the knowledgeable librarian had ever heard of it, but they all thought that it would be better for Shade not to open the book.
So if he wanted to know what this was, Xia De guessed he would have to ask a doctor.
As for the advice he read from the black stone, Flora and Miss Danister frowned after hearing it, but they only understood that the evil creature had the ability to transform into a human.
"Even if a hunter knows that he is being deliberately led to the devil, he is still willing to die. This kind of person can be called a hero."
Although the other person was a man, the witch still praised him and then said:
"But since the hunters a hundred years ago were able to track down such a well-hidden evil creature because of that mithril vein, can we also find each other through the vein a hundred years later?"
She then answered her own question:
"Vanessa is the witch of the earth, and detecting mineral veins is her best skill. Let her investigate when she arrives."
As for last night's operation, it can be said to be a great victory. Not only did Shade and others successfully defeat the demon, but even the auxiliary team sent by the church successfully fought with the burning trees in the forest, and after the demon disappeared, most of them were solved before early morning this morning.
People in the city probably only heard that several buildings in the city caught fire, but in fact, the action last night was the most successful "demon hunting" operation that the church had participated in in the past hundred years. Although the church itself did not have direct contact with the demon, and they did not even know that the demon split itself into four parts, at least the demon was really eliminated.
The evidence is that at dawn today, the temperature of the Ice Box that sealed the demon's split body suddenly dropped. After receiving the news from the Vestal Forest, the Church took the risk to open the box, and the black flame inside was extinguished.
After Miss Bell got up early this morning, she got information about the church from the black market. She also heard that the church wanted to invite her and the "God Summoner" to the local church to receive awards, but was flatly rejected by the young witch apprentice.
Although the demon was killed, the matter was far from over. For example, Shade had not yet seen the tree hole where the Hoy family treasure was transferred three hundred years ago.
But thanks to yesterday's afternoon tea party, it has been confirmed that Sir Wayne, who works for the "Derrin'or Restorationists", has a time curse on him, so the tree hole is most likely in his hands.
Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that there was still some time on this rainy Thursday before the witches arrived, Shad went out with Miss Danister to reclaim the fifth tree hole.
Based on the performance of the two demons when they fought Shade last night, George Kant and Lady Shatara are real and most of the time they act according to their own will, but in fact most of their decisions are influenced by the demons.
This is a standard manifestation of a "demon-possessed person", which is different from the "demon man" who has accepted the power of the devil. It is another manifestation of a "devil follower" that often appears in evil spirit and demon incidents.
The bodies of the two were not destroyed during the battle in the forest, but were handed over to the local church by the witch afterwards. After confirming whether there was any remaining demonic power in them, the church was trying to find out what the demons had manipulated them to do, and the information was shared with the witch by the church.
