With this preconceived impression, Charimir's subordinates naturally did not want to believe that there would be demon hunters who were willing to keep their integrity in this world.
The dual physical and mental fatigue, like vines growing wantonly in a sparsely populated place, has climbed onto everyone's heart.
This made Charimir's men gradually realize that the temptation to capture the demon hunter Gerd who had insulted Her Highness the Duchess was no longer as tempting as it was at the beginning.
As a last resort, Charimir had no choice but to announce that starting from tonight, everyone except the sentinels keeping watch can rest.
Soon, night fell.
Just as Charimir arranged, except for the sentries and night watchmen, everyone else couldn't wait to sleep in the tents. The fatigue of the past few days soon made them fall asleep.
But what they didn't know was that on the other side of the woods less than a hundred meters away from them, Lynn said to Gerd.
"It seems that my judgment is correct, they can't stand it any longer."
Charimir and his men were determined to ambush School of the Bear, the demon hunter Gerd, who was hiding only a few hundred meters away from them.
Because there are too many obstructions in the woods, it is basically impossible to see a person hiding even a few meters away, let alone hundreds of meters away.
In this regard, Lynn feels that the Americans in his home world who have experienced the Vietnam War should have a deep understanding of it.
But Charimir cannot see Lynn and Gerd, but Lynn and Gerd can monitor them all the time.
Because Lynn and Gerd have an advantage that ordinary people don't have, that is Witcher Senses.
Witcher Senses can ignore obstacles and can also sense the breathing, heartbeat, etc. of living things, and can also distinguish the behavioral state of living things at this time based on the differences in breathing and heartbeat.
It is precisely because of this almost cheating ability that Lynn and Gerd have been waiting here to observe for the past half month.
Until tonight, Lynn discovered through Witcher Senses that the breathing and heartbeat of the people in the camp had changed.
More people fell asleep tonight than every night before.
This made him realize that the opportunity he had been waiting for had finally arrived.
So he woke up Gerd and told him what he had discovered.
And Gerd also uses Witcher Senses to confirm the discovery of Lynn.
This made him unable to help but gear up.
The day has finally arrived.
"Here, drink these bottles of magic potion, and we'll serve again."
Lynn took out a bottle of Superior Thunderbolt Potion, a bottle of Superior Wolf Potion and a bottle of Superior Cat Potion and gave them to Gerd.
Superior Thunderbolt can enhance strength, Superior Wolf Potion can improve agility.
Superior Cat Potion can make the witcher's eyes see everything clearly at night as if it were daytime.
Although they were only dealing with a group of armed soldiers, not mythical creatures, Lynn still knew that a lion can fight a rabbit with all its strength.
Moreover, they not only had to defeat the minions sent by the Duchess, but they also had to not let any of them escape.
This is why Lynn took Gerd and ambush him in the woods for half a month.
Dozens of soldiers in full armor were lost. Even a duchess who ruled a country would feel heartbroken for a long time after suffering such a loss, right?
Moreover, if the duchess wants to target Gerd again in the future, phantoms of the past like today will unconsciously emerge.
At that time, she will naturally weigh it carefully again and see if it is worth it if she continues to act on her own initiative.
As the saying goes, "If you hit with one punch, you won't get hit by hundreds of punches." This is exactly the case.
After drinking the potion, Gerd took off his School of the Bear heavy armor before the potion took effect.
School of the Bear is the only one among all the schools of demon hunters that wears heavy armor.
If there is a School of the Bear infantry regiment of hundreds of people, all equipped with knight plate armor and uniformly wielding swords, it will definitely be enough to defeat a heavy infantry regiment that is ten times the size of one's own.
If the enemy is a self-armed levy of peasant soldiers, even tens of thousands of them will only be destroyed.
However, in order to avoid making any noise and alerting the enemy, it is naturally better to take off the heavy armor.
Gerd removed a series of armor pendants such as robe-style chain mail, arm guards, and shin guards, and only wore armor and trousers.
After doing this, the two of them quietly walked toward the camp where Charimir and others were.
Perhaps out of fear that the fire would reveal their position, no bonfires were lit in the camp, nor did the sentries and patrols who kept watch at night lit torches.
Originally, the light from the torch was weak enough. We didn't even use the torch. We relied entirely on moonlight for illumination, and we were still in the woods...
However, it cannot be concluded that Charimir is a blind and arrogant fool. It can only be said that he is still stuck in the inertia of his thinking.
In this era, the number of witchers is even rarer than that of dragon-like creatures. Most people barely come into contact with witchers and avoid them like lepers.
Few people are interested in witchers, and no one knows that witchers have a potion that gives them dark vision.
Therefore, Charimir subconsciously thought that the demon hunters would not be able to find them without setting fire to them.
At this time, the sentry standing a few meters away from Lynn and Gerd obviously thought so too.
He turned his back to the witcher and kept looking forward, which was in the direction of Castle Etnir. According to the plan, if Gerd appeared, he would definitely appear on the road outside the castle.
Even if the moonlight is not bright tonight, and humans in this world are more or less night-blind, at least their hearing is normal.
In such a quiet night, even the slightest footsteps cannot be heard at all.
Unless...
Before the sentry finished his thoughts, he suddenly felt a hand covering his mouth, and at the same time, a sharp weapon was stabbed into his neck.
The signal of an enemy attack immediately appeared in his brain, but unfortunately his neck was stabbed, causing him to lose control of his body.
After a while, the sentry's body stopped struggling.
Pulling out the hunting knife from the opponent's neck, a handful of blood flew onto the grass.
Lynn grabbed the sentry's still warm body and dragged it into the nearby grass.
"Wait a moment."
He did not immediately take Gerd deep into the camp, but observed it.
The position they are currently in is considered the edge of the entire camp.
Sentries were arranged in several directions of the camp, and in addition, there were several patrols.
If we just go deep into the camp and wait for the patrols to come over and find the missing sentry, they will definitely be alert.
Therefore, it is better to sit back and wait, simply hide nearby, wait for the patrols to approach, and then get rid of them one by one.
Wait until all patrols are eliminated and all sentries are removed, then go in deep and kill the sleeping enemies.
A few minutes later, the sounds of armor clashing and footsteps getting closer and closer.
"Zawan, where have you been hiding? You didn't fall into the pit and drowned, did you?"
As soon as the patrol officers approached the place where Lynn and Gerd were hiding, Gerd immediately stepped out and went around behind each other.
The next moment, there was only a crisp click, and the opponent's head was rotated 180 degrees by him.
The other party only had time to let out a muffled groan, but he had already fallen down like a puddle of mud.
