"A warlock who thinks that after practicing some physical skills with those School of the Grizzly Bear, he can rival a demon hunter in close combat? He wants to sneak attack me with this little skill?"
Master sneered, walked slowly to Aode, and said coldly and condescendingly,
"Humph, old bastard! In the past, you always said that I was a false gentleman, but today I will do as you wish.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you right away. Your old friend Ali has already taken the first step. I want to kill all the other warlocks first, so that your warlock group will completely fall apart.
"I really want to see how painful and struggling you, an old man who is nearly 400 years old, would feel when you see your former friends and apprentices die one by one in front of you."
Master laughed heartily a few times, and then slowly walked towards the other warlock.
"No!" Aode shouted at the top of his lungs, "Come at me if you have anything. I've been sorry to you in the past, why don't I apologize?"
"If an apology is useful, why should I seek revenge? Hum hum."
At this time, Beier stood up directly, shaking slightly weakly, holding one hand on the table, trying to steady himself, and said loudly:
"Master, I don't know what makes you so crazy, but stop it!"
"Stop? How is that possible? I've been reasoning with you a few days ago." Master said, pointing at Beier and other warlocks, eyes wide open,
"Now is the critical moment of Witcher Order's survival, but you people only know how to enjoy yourself every day. If it weren't for me, you would have been eradicated by the nobles.
"I have said before that we Witcher Order need to reform, Beier. I especially told you that the phenomenon of Conjunction of the Spheres has not reappeared for a hundred years. Monsters cannot be replenished now. We can only artificially make monsters and put them regularly near the town, so that those mortals will rely on us because of the threat of monsters. This is the fundamental way for us demon hunters to survive.
"But you... rejected on the grounds that what I did was inhumane!
"And together with Vesemir, they keep rejecting me!"
Master shouted crazily:
"So I had to make all kinds of monsters in private, so that our witcher commission fees did not fall too ridiculously over the years. But what have you done now?"
He suddenly turned around again, pointed at the table of unconscious children, and his voice became louder and louder, "You actually violated the High Mountain Trial rules passed down from ancient times and let that traitor Dick save these brats.
"But Dick should have been killed by Ruiwen now. It's a pity that I didn't do it myself.
"In short, if High Mountain Trial continues like this, the number of our demon hunters will quickly overflow."
Master said sadly, "No matter how many monsters I create, they will all be killed by you. Therefore, I can only solve the problem from the source, and you opponents will have to kill Hell."
"You actually ignored our centuries-old feelings and killed your compatriots for such a ridiculous reason?" Beier looked in disbelief, his eyes full of disappointment and anger.
"How can love be as attractive as money? Don't worry, our three schools of thought will not perish.
"After I send you all into reincarnation one by one, I will take the Trial of the Grasses formula that Alexander has stolen long ago to re-train demon hunters, and they will be little demon hunters who are only loyal to me.
"Of course, my two silly apprentices Harden and Russell will also be roped in. After all, the little demon hunter still needs an instructor to lead him."
Master looked intoxicated, as if he had seen a bright future.
"After a few decades, if there is another noble Northern Kingdoms who covets and resists Witcher Order, I will teach the assassination techniques with all my money and let the demon hunters get rid of him.
"Maybe I can become a duke by then? Or even a prince! Maybe a king! Hahahahaha." At the end of the sentence, he looked up to the sky and laughed, and his laughter made all the demon hunters and warlocks tremble.
After he finished speaking, he ignored the ashen expressions on everyone's faces and drew a long sword from his back.
Then he kicked away Aode who was holding his thigh and trying to stop his evil deeds. He walked towards a young warlock step by step and slowly raised the butcher knife.
At this moment, there was a loud "bang" sound, sawdust flew into the main fort's door, and someone violently broke it open from the outside.
Dick took back the right hand that used Mind Shockwave, looked at the pool of blood in the hall, and knew that he was still a step too late. The cat's eyes were bloodshot with anger, and he stared at Master.
Then, he drew out the black sword from behind, exerted force on his feet, and galloped towards Master.
The time came a few minutes ago.
Dick hurriedly and slowly returned to Odinburg. When he reached the gate, he heard a loud and earth-shattering sound in the distance.
In the darkness, with his excellent cat eyes, he noticed seemingly countless monsters wandering hundreds of meters between the sky and the earth:
Drowner, Mud Drowner, Nekker, Gargoyle... are as diverse as merchandise.
At the front of the group of monsters were dozens of villagers dressed as shepherds. They held pitchforks and kitchen knives in their hands, with faces filled with indignation and shouting, "We will kill those mutant freaks today!"
There are dozens of soldiers in heavy armor on the right side of the villagers. They are slowly pushing three heavy trebuchets forward.
The leader of the soldiers was a young man riding a tall horse. The man looked proud and high-spirited and was talking to a beautiful woman beside him who was also riding a horse.
"Why are Brownie and Ruiwen together?"
Dick, no matter how slow he was, knew that something was wrong. He estimated the distance and found that in three minutes, the army composed of monsters and ordinary people would arrive at the door of Kaer Morhen. He quickly entered the castle and locked the heavy door with a latch.
Then he immediately ran towards the main castle, and when he heard the painful cries from outside, he used Mind Shockwave without hesitation.
In the main castle hall, the atmosphere was tense. Dick and Master were facing each other. The two long swords holding Sword Qi collided fiercely, causing sparks to fly.
Dick's eyes widened and he gritted his teeth and roared, "Master, I have known for a long time that your heart is as twisted as a devil, but I never thought that you would be so crazy and crazy that you would kill your compatriots. You are simply worse than Drowner!"
Master looked ferocious, exerted force suddenly, veins popped out on his arm, and pushed the long sword forward hard.
A powerful force struck, and Dick took two steps back to stabilize his body.
Master's performance was even worse. His feet made two deep marks on the ground, and he took four or five steps back before stopping.
The distance between the two people was instantly opened, but Master raised his head and laughed wildly. The laughter was sharp and harsh, echoing in the hall:
"So what? Dick, no matter what despicable means you used to escape from Ruiwen, since you dare to come back here, today is your death anniversary!
"Even if your Swordsmanship has reached its peak, I already have nearly two hundred years of experience in hunting monsters. No matter how talented a young boy is, he is just overestimating his abilities in front of me!"
"Dick, there is an antidote in the laboratory." Beier's voice came from the side, weak and a bit eager.
Just when Dick was about to make a move, Master pushed forward with the right hand seal.
Then a strong cone-shaped shock wave hit the stone pillar behind Dick. With a "boom", large rocks fell like raindrops, raising a cloud of choking dust.
"Don't move, Dick! If you dare to move again, I will tear this old thing into pieces next time!" Master stared viciously at Aode, who was lying on the ground closest to him.
