"Go and call Eredin and Avallac'h."
Land of the Alders and the Witcher world have different time flow rates.
In the past ten hours Land of the Alders, only one minute has passed in the world of the Witcher.
So time is not urgent.
Eredin and Avallac'h happened to be resting in Tir Na Lea at this time. When they heard the call from the Alder King, they hurried over to see him.
"No gift."
When the two of them arrived, Auberon felt tired again after the excitement and returned to the tired old man.
He waved his hand, signaling Ge'els to tell the two of them what had just happened.
After listening to this, the two of them also had joy on their faces.
As long as Elder Blood is obtained, a super-large portal can be created again, and the Ain El tribe can also leave this world that is increasingly invaded by White Frost, without having to slowly wait to die in this world.
Eredin said without hesitation, "Then I will go and capture Elder Blood now."
Although he doesn't know why Elder Blood found Sunstone, Eredin understands that the most important thing now is not to dwell on this. The top priority is to capture Elder Blood before it gets too far away from the Sunstone that sent the signal.
Auberon agreed, "Let Avallac'h, Ge'els, and Imlerith accompany you. Be sure not to let Elder Blood run away."
Outside the palace, a large number of elven cavalry wearing heavy armor were gathering.
They are Red Riders, and in the world of demon hunters, they have an even more frightening name - Wild Hunt.
A combat warlock who also wore heavy armor and had a ring on his helmet came forward and said to Avallac'h respectfully, "Teacher."
His name is Caranthir, and he is the best student of Avallac'h.
"Caranthir, you are coming too this time."
"Yes."
Although it has lost the ability to create a world gate, it can still be done if it only teleports a small number of people.
Of course, even if you only teleport a small number of people, many warlocks called "navigators" will be needed to cast spells together.
Hundreds of Wild Hunt formed a neat square formation, waiting for Avallac'h, Caranthir, and other navigators to cast spells.
As the mantra was chanted, a portal slowly opened.
Wild Hunts filed in and passed through the portal.
Came to a strange land.
Snowflakes were dancing, and the view was of rolling mountains, with a castle standing not far away.
Eredin was the last one to pass through the portal. Red Riders was worthy of being the most elite troops in Ain El. When passing through the portal, he had consciously set up a battle formation outside the portal.
Eredin glanced around sharply and then gave the order.
"Elder Blood is nearby, search as a team!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the sky suddenly changed color.
The terrifying rain of fire fell, as if it was going to burn everything.
Caranthir was the first to react.
A frost barrier was released above everyone's heads.
The falling fire rain continued to hit the frost barrier, but for a while, it was able to withstand the falling fire rain.
Without giving everyone a chance to breathe, the ground beneath their feet cracked.
A dozen Wild Hunt accidentally fell into it.
Avallac'h hurriedly chanted a spell, and a layer of frost spread under his feet, extended to everyone's feet, and blocked the cracks.
At this moment, a large number of demon hunters and heavily armored knights came out of the castle not far away, and their number was actually several times that of Wild Hunt.
Eredin's pupils shrank sharply, realizing that the situation was not good. "This is a trap, retreat!"
The navigators hurriedly chanted spells and tried to open the portal. However, when several Wild Hunt rushed towards the portal, the portal suddenly twisted and turned into a sharp razor, tearing their bodies to pieces.
"The spell has been countered, we are trapped!" a navigator shouted in horror.
On the city wall of Kaer Morhen, Tissaia, Margarita Laux-Antille, Yennefer, and Keira jointly maintained the blockade of space. Wild Hunt could not even think of opening the portal and leaving.
Triss put away the bombardment of large-scale fire magic.
Because the demon hunters and heavy armored knights below have already engaged Wild Hunt. Although the ordinary heavy armored knights are not as powerful as Wild Hunt, each demon hunter is equivalent to several Wild Hunt, not to mention that their number is far more than Wild Hunt.
Not surprisingly, Wild Hunt gradually fell into a disadvantage.
Avallac'h waved his magic wand, preparing to release a powerful ice magic.
This magic will not work on Wild Hunt, it will only affect the enemy.
However, the moment he cast the spell, a sword suddenly stabbed out of his chest, dripping with blood.
Caranthir witnessed this scene and his eyes were about to split with rage.
"No! Teacher!"
Just as he was about to go over, he was blocked by a human figure condensed into black smoke.
Regis's claws flashed a cold light in the air. "Your opponent is me."
The two Wild Hunt closest to Avallac'h brandished their weapons and slashed at the attackers.
However, the figure of Jacques suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, it was behind the two Wild Hunt, with a sword on his head.
Eredin in the crowd was already thinking about an escape route.
Although there is no way to return to Land of the Alders without a navigator, it is still better than dying here.
Realizing this, he no longer hesitated, leaving behind his colleagues and subordinates who were still fighting, and fled backwards.
At this time, there was a roar in the air.
Eredin instinctively raised his head and looked.
I saw a gryphon soaring in the sky.
Then, a black shadow fell from the sky.
Bang!
The sky was filled with smoke and dust.
When the smoke and dust dissipated, what appeared in front of Eredin was a young black-haired youth, wearing School of the Wolf's master-level equipment, and holding an exaggeratedly huge sword in his hand.
Eredin's body was burned to ashes by Lynn using Igni Sign.
He looked around and saw that the battle was over.
None of the hundreds of Wild Hunt were spared.
There are also casualties on Lynn's side.
The elves of the Ain El tribe are different from the Ain Siddi tribe. The former have stronger fighting power.
But even so, the gains from this battle are still huge.
In this battle, not only all Red Riders were wiped out, but many navigators also died here.
In particular, the death of heavyweights such as Eredin, Ge'els, Caranthir, Imlerith, Avallac'h, etc. is undoubtedly a fatal blow to Ain El.
Auberon dispatched so many important people at once, which is enough to show his importance and desire for Elder Blood.
But unfortunately, this was a complete trap from the beginning.
Lynn is familiar with the plot, knows how to use Sunstone to seduce Ain El, also knows the location of Sunstone, and even more clearly understands the importance of Elder Blood to Ain El.
Ain El, like Ain Sheedi, is an immortal species, but their low fertility is their weakness.
Take Laura Doran as an example. Now that we have mastered the method of cultivating Elder Blood, even if Laura Doran is abducted by a human warlock, wouldn't it be enough to use this method to cultivate a second Laura Doran?
As a result, Ayn El spent hundreds of years searching for Laura Doran and her descendants.
What does this mean?
This shows that even if Ain El uses all the efforts of his family, he cannot cultivate a second Laura Doran.
But this time, Lynn asked Jacques to use Sunstone to lure Red Riders and many navigators, as well as important senior officials of the Ain El Tribe. Judging from the low talent cultivation and fertility of the Ain El Tribe, their demise is only a matter of time.
Even if Lynn no longer troubles them, they will be mercilessly swallowed up by White Frost because they cannot leave Land of the Alders.
This victory was not only a heavy blow to the Ain El tribe, but also the final verdict on their fate.
With the threat of Wild Hunt being completely eliminated, the remaining things facing Lynn are very simple.
Nilfgaard's Duke Joachim and Duke Ardal were both killed.
Nilfgaard no longer has the strength to resist Lynn.
The sun-shaped flag on the other world line that frightened the northerners was completely lowered, and was replaced by a black and golden double-headed eagle flag.
Lynn divided the land of Nilfgaard. Basically, the original aristocratic system of Nilfgaard was completely dismantled by him, and it was impossible to form a residual force.
City of Golden Towers was sealed by him to Syanna.
Duchess Caroberta of Toussaint has passed away, and the newly succeeded duchess Anarietta expresses her allegiance to Lynn.
Since Duchess Caroberta has chosen Anarietta as her heir, letting Syanna return to Toussaint will only cause more trouble.
It's better to let Syanna become the Duchess City of Golden Towers.
Anyway, although the area near City of Golden Towers has experienced war, it can still regain its former prosperity after reconstruction.
So far, in addition to Cintra, Skellige, and Kovir, Lynn has unified the known world.
With knowledge from another world, Lynn reforms the existing administrative bureaucracy to make it more efficient.
Decades later, Eist Tursek, Calanthe, King Bran, Crach, "Madman" Lugos, Tankred and others passed away one after another.
After negotiation, Kingdom of Cintra, Skellige Isles, and Kingdom of Kovir and Poviss were incorporated into the empire and became provinces of the empire.
However, Lynn still retains the interests of various noble families such as Tuirseach Clan, an Craite Clan, Clan Drummond, Thyssen family.
At this point, Lynn has finally completed its unification.
Of course, he knows that the known world is actually only a part of this planet, and even the known world is not even an entire continent.
On the other side of the Dragon Mountains, there is more land.
However, the various races in the empire have experienced too many disputes and wars, and are already exhausted. Lynn understands that what they need most at this moment is time to recuperate, rather than continue to expand and fight.
Lynn himself used to be a hard-working migrant worker, so he knew very well the desires of ordinary people - all they wanted was to have something to eat, a place to live, and a stable life.
Therefore, he focused on domestic affairs, committed to restoring the economy, improving people's livelihood, and bringing long-lost peace and prosperity to this war-torn continent.
Although the demon hunter cannot produce offspring, Lynn's own lifespan is longer than the history of ancient Rome, so even if there are no offspring, the empire will not easily fall apart under his rule.
However, Lynn knows that a stable political power needs a perfect system to maintain it.
To this end, he established a prime minister, a House of Lords and a House of Commons, and established a governance system.
The House of Lords is composed of nobles and represents traditional forces and local interests;
The House of Commons is composed of civilian representatives who speak for ordinary people and ensure that their demands are heard.
As for the position of Prime Minister, it can only be appointed by Lynn himself. As the executor of his will, he will lead the administrative affairs of the entire empire.
This arrangement not only retained the core of centralized power, but also provided channels for different classes to participate in political affairs, ensuring the stability and vitality of the empire.
There are ripples on the lake.
Lady of the Lake's figure is looming in the moonlight.
She stared at the space cracks that appeared out of thin air on Black Tern Island, her eyes flashing with complicated light.
On the other side of the crack, a strange world is vaguely visible.
But that new world is neither pure darkness nor dazzling light.
Lady of the Lake gently raised his hand.
On her fingertips, golden divine power swirled.
She carefully explored the source of the crack, and after a moment, she frowned slightly.
"This is not a malicious intrusion, but an unknown territory."
She turned her eyes to the witcher standing by the lake, and there was a hint of sincerity in his soft voice.
"I could have closed this rift directly, but that world... seems worth exploring. My warrior, I ask you to go and find out for me. Of course, this is not an order, but my request. If you don't want to, I won't force it."
"I would like to go."
In this world, Lynn has done the best.
Demon hunters become a royal special force and enjoy special privileges.
Under his rule, people of all countries live and work in peace and contentment, no longer worry about war, and are prosperous.
And his own strength has reached its limit.
If you want to go further, you can only go to other worlds and find a way to break through.
Leaving from Black Tern Island, Lynn first rides on Deathclaw and returns to Tretogor city.
In the palace, Cirilla, Triss and Fringilla were called over.
Decades ago, when the empire was stable, Lynn married Triss, Keira and Fringilla.
Cirilla has no objections to the three girls. Triss, Keira, and Fringilla also treat Cirilla as their younger sisters.
After decades of getting along with each other, the five people have all lived a very harmonious life.
Lynn returned to the palace, called the four girls, and informed them of the matter.
"I'll go with you." Triss said without thinking.
"But..."
"It doesn't make any difference whether you let one person or two people pass through the crack, right? Please, that's the goddess... I won't let you leave me this time."
Seeing that Triss was extremely persistent, Lynn stopped insisting.
Fringilla said, "Then I, Keira, and little sister Cirilla will stay here and protect this family."
Keira rarely competed with Triss this time.
Triss, Fringilla, and Keira are all sorceresses. They can stay young and immortal through magic.
Cirilla is not only a sorceress, but also a descendant of Laura Doran, and she is immortal.
"Then it's up to you."
"Why are the whole family talking about this? It's better for you to come back safely than anything else."
After explaining everything, Lynn and Triss came to Black Tern Island and passed through the crack on the island.
A feeling of weightlessness came, but soon, Lynn's feet stood on solid ground.
The damp ground exuded a musty smell, and an indescribable stench filled the air, as if rotting flesh and old dirt were mixed together.
He looked around and found that this place was obviously a dungeon.
It's cold, damp, and full of depressing atmosphere.
Not far away, several short, goblin-like creatures were standing in front of the cell door, throwing stones through the rusty iron fence.
They were no more than the size of a child, and one of them was wearing ill-fitting rusty armor, and the armor was covered with mottled rust and stains.
Their skin is rough and glows with a sickly green color, and the stench emanating from their bodies is like the rotten smell of not bathing for many years, or the unique fishy smell of some kind of wild beast.
One of the goblins seemed to have just noticed the existence of Lynn and Triss. He turned his head suddenly, widened his cloudy eyes, and made a sharp cry:
"Hey! Who are you?"
What surprised Lynn was that the language spoken by the other party was very similar to Common Speech, and he could understand it completely.
However, he did not answer immediately. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and looked at these creatures carefully.
Their appearance reminded him of a common monster in fantasy games in his previous life - goblins.
Lynn did not answer, but asked "What are you doing?"
One of the goblin cubs grinned, revealing jagged fangs, and said excitedly.
"If you throw a stone at it, it will scream. It screams beautifully! Don't believe it? Give me a stone and I will show you!"
Lynn Hearing this, he glanced at his feet, then randomly picked up a fist-sized stone from the ground and weighed it in his hands.
Then his wrist suddenly exerted force, and the stone flew out like a meteor, accurately hitting the goblin cub's head.
There was only a bang, and the goblin cub's head exploded instantly, with blood and brains splattering everywhere.
"What are you doing?!" another goblin screamed angrily, his voice full of fear and anger.
However, before it could finish its question, a loud noise interrupted its voice.
The iron bars of the dungeon were knocked down by a huge force, and the heavy iron bars fell directly on the goblin.
It tried to struggle, but then, a huge cave bear jumped out of the cell and pressed heavily on the iron bars.
There was a crisp sound of bones breaking, and the goblin's body was instantly crushed, completely silent.
The cave bear raised his head, and his eyes briefly met with Lynn.
I don't know if it was Lynn's illusion, but the demon hunter actually showed a hint of gratitude in its eyes, and then pounced on the other goblins in the dungeon without hesitation.
For the next two minutes, the dungeon echoed with the screams of goblins and the wails of wargs.
The cave bear's sharp claws and fangs tore apart every enemy mercilessly, with blood and internal organs splattered all over the walls and ground.
When the last goblin in the dungeon fell, the cave bear stopped.
Its body began to glow softly, gradually shrinking and deforming, and finally transformed into a tall human being.
He is over two meters tall, has strong muscles, and his skin has a healthy bronze color, as if he has been bathed in the sun all year round.
His face was resolute, and his eyes held a tranquility that was one with nature.
"Please forgive the entrails of this place," he began, his voice low and gentle. "We should cherish all the gifts of nature... but the entrails of goblins are probably very low on the list."
"You helped a bear and you didn't know if it was going to hurt you? You really are nature's best friend - or maybe a Madman."
"Anyway, I owe you a thank you. I am Druid Halsin."
This name stirred up a ripple in Lynn's memory.
He had already guessed about the scene in front of him, and the name Halsin further confirmed his idea.
"I am Lynn, and this is my wife Triss." Lynn introduced simply.
Triss nodded slightly.
Halsin also nodded and glanced at the two of them. "You don't look like locals. Are you from Baldur's Gate?"
"No, we come from a more distant place." Lynn replied.
Halsin did not continue to ask, "I have no intention of prying into your privacy, and I have no right to ask you for more. But if you are willing to help, I will owe you a lifelong debt."
Lynn did not answer immediately, but glanced at Triss.
There was a hint of curiosity and expectation in her eyes, and she was obviously interested in Halsin's proposal.
"We can consider it." Lynn finally said.
"These butchers are threatening my woodland and the natural order must be protected."
Triss asked, "You mean, there are more... such things out there?"
There was a trace of confusion in Halsin's eyes. "Didn't you come in from outside? Didn't you see it?"
Lynn explained, "Actually, we came here because of a teleportation accident."
The world of Baldur's Gate is very simple, good people are good people and bad people are bad people.
And the Halsin they faced was a traditional, old-school good guy.
"Teleportation accident? And you seem to be unscathed. Your gods are really taking care of you."
Halsin thought for a while, "There is a large group of goblins entrenched in this abandoned temple. Normally, goblins are unorganized and undisciplined creatures, but this time the situation is different. There are three leaders guiding them."
"They are the drow elf Minthara, the hobgoblin Droll Ragzlin, and the fallen female goblin priest Gut."
"There is no need to be an enemy of the entire goblin tribe. As long as you get rid of these three scourges, it will naturally heal itself."
Lynn agreed without hesitation, "Okay, come with me."
It didn't take Lynn much effort to eliminate the three leaders of this goblin camp.
With his current strength, if those goblins hide and attack him like the goblins in "Goblin Slayer", although they will not be able to cause him any harm, at least they will waste a lot of time.
However, when the goblins in this goblin camp discovered the three Lynn, they all rushed forward shouting.
Then he was killed by Lynn and Halsin who turned into a cave bear.
Even if there were goblins holding bows and arrows, they were killed by Triss with fireballs before they could shoot the arrows.
An hour later, all the goblins in the abandoned temple were killed by three people.
Although the only bosses that were successfully killed in the end were Minthara and Gut, the hobgoblin escaped when he saw that the situation was bad, but Halsin was already very satisfied.
Even if the hobgoblin comes back again, the woodland can compete with it.
On the way back to Emerald Grove, Halsin led the way while chatting with Lynn and Triss.
"Human beings like bards," Halsin said suddenly, with a hint of smile in his tone, "If you are willing, I can find a bard to write poems for you. I can see that you are all people with stories. If you don't mind, I want to hear your stories."
"It's a long story."
"We have time, let's talk from the beginning, from the very beginning..."
"Okay, let's start when I was a demon hunter apprentice..."
