"Well, then tell me what's wrong. I'll solve the problem first, and then I'll talk to you about the price directly."
Diablo said something that took everyone by surprise, and he planned to drive out the evil without even talking about the price. This kind of witcher is not rare, it can be said that there are almost none.
Is there such a good thing? I have heard that there are demon hunters coming to them, and the knight commander who ran over to intercept them was refreshed, as if he sensed the opportunity of whoring for nothing.
"The exception is the Viscount Castle..."
The knights who found that there were advantages to take advantage of did not apply to the nobles he was loyal to, and told the witcher lord about the abnormal events that happened in their territory.
The abnormal flash point is mainly in the castle passed down from generation to generation by the local lord's family. This ancient castle with a history of hundreds of years has undergone amazing changes during this period of time, as if it came to life.
All kinds of changes scared even the local lords to live in the castle, and took his wife, lover and servants overnight to move to a manor in the countryside.
"Oh, that's it, take me over there to have a look!"
After listening to what happened, Diablo nodded, and then motioned for the knight in front of him to lead the way.
"It's here."
The lone knight brought Diablo to the center of the city, where stood an ancient castle with mottled walls and a sense of vicissitudes of history. The castle was separated from the residents by the moat and became an isolated island in the city.
"My lord, please, I'll come back here to pick you up tomorrow." The trembling knight pointed to the old castle in front of him, which was shrouded in an eerie atmosphere, and I was about to escape.
"What tomorrow?"
Diablo grabbed the knight, and the knight froze on the spot, unable to move.
"It'll be ready soon!"
Rumbling--
Amidst the doubts of the knights and the doubtful gazes of the idlers watching the bustle behind, the clouds in the sky quickly gathered and piled up over the city, and the dazzling Thunder Snake walked in the sky, blooming with astonishing power.
Then, in the next instant, the sky was full of thunder, like a waterfall, falling from the sky, covering the ancient castle that the local nobles had inherited for hundreds of years...
Chapter 398
"thunder……"
No matter which material world it is in, thunder is an extremely destructive and destructive force. When thunder falls from the clouds like a waterfall, its impact on mortals is unparalleled.
For example, the knights leading the way for Diablo were already stunned by the unimaginable scenery in front of them—an ancient castle that had experienced vicissitudes of life was gradually reduced to ruins under the shroud of thunder.
The knight who was originally in awe of Diablo's identity as a demon hunter and believed that he could solve supernatural and supernatural events, now looks at Diablo as if looking up at a god.
After all, the thunderstorm that destroyed the castle into ruins is indeed like the scene of the anger of the gods in the propaganda of the Holy Fire Church.
"Okay, if your description is accurate, then all the evil spirits in this castle should be wiped out!"
Diablo, who had leveled a castle, looked at the knight without changing his expression. Behind him, Grey, a female dragon figure with a slightly swollen heart, shrank back after gaining more powerful power and completely mastering it. The head is as honest as a quail.
"Now you can take me to your lord and discuss the price of removing demons."
The knight stared at by Diablo felt weak all over. He glanced at the scorched ruins where the lightning was still flying, and swallowed hard.
"My lord, please follow... No, just wait here for a while, and I will invite Lord Viscount over here."
Originally, the knight wanted to bring this lord to the Viscount, but when he thought of the power that this lord showed just now, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. How could he let such a big man go to see the Viscount? It should be the Viscount who came to visit this great talent right.
"Good response!"
Seeing the knight riding fast and running to find the local lord, Diablo admired it quite a bit. He took Gray to wander around this small town, but no matter where he went at this time, he was greeted with awe. gaze.
After all, as long as the eyes are not blind, you can see the terrifying scene of thunder falling in the sky just now, and this city is not big, the east side collapses, and the west side can smell it. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for Diablo to keep a low profile .
Then things were taken for granted. After learning that the evil in his castle had been eliminated, the Viscount happily returned from the manor to the city.
But when he saw the castle that his family had passed down for hundreds of years turned into ruins, he couldn't help but feel dizzy, and stood on the spot blankly. After he realized it, he flew into a rage.
Originally, he wanted to order the arrest of the demon hunter who destroyed his family's foundation, but after listening to the knight's description, he quickly recovered his composure, and then chose to condescend and find the demon hunter patronized by him. tavern.
"You can pay the fee for eliminating demons. One copper plate is not too little, and a thousand gold coins is not too much."
The plump Viscount heard the scaled demon hunter in front of him say this to himself, it sounded like he was very magnanimous, and he didn't care about money at all.
But how can such words be taken seriously, if it is really given a copper plate, I am afraid it will not be too long.The existence that can turn a castle into ruins with a wave of your hand, even if you don't care about ordinary gold and silver, you must also care about the offense of those ants.
"1000 gold coin!"
The plump Viscount in silk and satin gritted his teeth and said the number that made his whole body tremble.
"Thank you, my lord, for taking the initiative to expel the evil spirits for me!"
"Ok!"
Seeing the appearance of this nobleman who seemed to have had dozens of catties of fat cut off his body, Diablo looked calm and urged this guy,
"I'm leaving before dark."
"Understood, I will definitely deliver the reward you deserve before dark."
The aristocrat's heartbroken voice tremblingly responded, and he left the tavern that had fallen into silence step by step, and went to prepare the reward.
He didn't dare to delay, although it was a huge sum of money, it was nothing compared to his wealth and life.
And as the nobleman left the tavern, sky-high exorcism rewards spread wildly in the city, and when everyone in this small town knew about it, the news spread farther away, and gradually spread within the territory of the Kingdom of Villen .
Associated with this amazing exorcism reward is undoubtedly the witcher who summoned thunder from the sky.
Of course, when almost everyone heard about the existence of such a demon hunter, their first reaction was to doubt.Thunder represents the power of heaven and earth, how could there be a demon hunter who masters thunder.
But no matter how many skeptical voices there are, the reputation of a demon hunter who has black and yellow vertical pupils and can control thunder will spread along with the spread of sky-high rewards, and his reputation will rise.
At this time, Diablo, who had already left the small town, of course didn't care about this. His current target was the monsters wandering in the Kingdom of Waylon, those powerful monsters that could provide him with plenty of blood.
And in the process, Diablo always showed terrifying power inadvertently.And this kind of power scares most ordinary people, but it also makes a small number of people yearn for it.
In this weird and precarious world, some people are willing to give everything to get a chance to live for a long time, even if it is a monster in human skin.
As for those who want to follow him, Diablo chooses the best, and generally he will not refuse. After all, those who have the courage to follow him are not ordinary people, even if they are ordinary people, it is only temporary of.
So, gradually, as Diablo's footprints spread all over the villages, towns and cities of the Kingdom of Velen, his reputation became more and more high, and it was just a little bit worse than everyone's knowledge of women and children.
In direct proportion to his reputation, there are more and more followers around him.Although there are constant followers who die in the battle with the strange evil spirits, there are always more people who want to follow him than those who die in battle.
"My kind Lord Geralt, please save my child! I beg you!"
The ragged woman knelt down in front of the man with black and yellow vertical pupils, crying sadly, but such crying did not attract the sympathy of the entourage behind the man.
Someone stepped forward to drive the village woman away, because the village woman and the baby in her arms did not have any abnormal aura.
"and many more."
Diablo stopped his followers, and after he obediently retreated, he looked down at the village woman in front of him.
"Your child is dead!"
"My lord, I beg you, save my child, please, I can't live without him!"
The facts that Diablo reported did not make the woman push away, she just kowtowed, praying for this powerful existence to exert its might and bring her child back to life.
Chapter 399
"You can't live without a child. So, how about resurrecting your child at the cost of your life?"
Diablo leaned down and asked this daring peasant woman. Now he has 27 followers. Although the number is not many, they are considered to be the first-class strongmen in the Villen Kingdom. By.
However, because the way these guys gain power is too special, most of them barely maintain their human form, with very obvious inhuman tissues on their bodies.
Even if a "monster" with such a shape is alone, no matter where it is, it will be frightening and shunned, let alone gathered together.
Even with such a terrifying team, someone dared to join them, and even dared to block their way.Such courage is indeed commendable.
"Resurrect my child at the cost of my life?"
The woman raised her head, and her gray pupils lit up for a moment. She looked at the man in front of her who was surrounded by monsters and whose appearance was closest to that of a human. Her lips trembled slightly, and then she asked about the worries in her heart.
"Give my life to my child, who will take care of him when he wakes up?"
"How about I take care of you?" Diablo smiled.
"Okay." The peasant woman lowered her head and thought for a moment, then nodded, then held up the swaddling baby in her arms and presented it to Diablo.
In swaddling clothes, a baby with thin skin and blue skin had his eyes closed tightly, his chest no longer rose and fell, and there was no life in his body, but the strange thing was that this baby didn't have any life in his body either, which was really inconceivable.
Diablo noticed the abnormality, he stretched out his fingers, and lightly touched the baby's chest, injecting the purest blood that his carrier could extract into it.
Vitality was spreading. In the young body, the heart that had been silent for a while began to beat again, the blood flowed, and the bruises on the skin began to fade. The whole process was incredibly fast.
Even though the leader of everything felt abnormal, under the cover of mental power, Diablo didn't feel anything wrong, and everything seemed so reasonable.
The baby whose body was silent and whose soul hadn't dissipated got a surge of life force extracted from the monster's body, and then revived again.
In the eyes of others, this is a miracle, the resurrection of the dead, and their return to the world, such unimaginable, beyond common sense, things that can only be done by gods.
And such a scene was also reflected in the eyes of the followers behind the man, and it also made them restless and excited. Many people even ignited a flame called ambition in their eyes.
Diablo didn't have a high threshold for choosing followers, he just had to be courageous and talented, as long as he was obedient.Therefore, this also caused Diablo to have many ambitious people under his command.
Their purpose of following Diablo is to gain great power and accomplish what they desire, but in the process of following Diablo, their ambitions will also change.
For example, one of Diablo's followers is a guy named Izzy. Before following Diablo, he was just a hunter. His ambition is to become the best hunter in the village and marry all the daughters of the village chief. That's all.
Now following Diablo and gaining more powerful power through the magic hunting circle, his ambitions have become even greater, while his previous pursuits are now despised and dismissed by him.
Most of Diablo's followers' life pursuits are mostly to be canonized by the king and become nobles.Of course, there are also some war-thirsty guys whose pursuit is to challenge and hunt monsters stronger than themselves.
Fame and fortune, two simple words, how many intelligent creatures can see it?For example, at this moment, when Diablo once again demonstrated his god-like power, some people have already raised their pursuit of life to the level of a king.
After all, it is not too much for a disciple of the gods to be the king of a country, and it can even be said to be reasonable.
Diablo knows a little bit about the thoughts of the guys behind him, and he is noncommittal about it. Ambition can also be called self-motivated.
Within the controllable range, it is a good thing to be ambitious. After all, a guy who has no desires and desires is too scary.
Diablo didn't have time to care about what the guys behind him were thinking right now, his attention was on the giggling baby in front of him who was staring at him with wide-eyed eyes.
Still can't find any issues, but that's the problem.Diablo looked up at the sky, then looked down at the ground, and then let out a deep laugh.
"If it's the main body, maybe it's really fooled, but unfortunately I'm just a wisp of soul!"
Diablo smiled, and reached out to take the child from the woman whose body was already frozen, and handed it to his first follower, Gray.
"Take good care of him."
"Yes!"
Seeing the child handed over by the unfathomable being in front of him, Gray, whose hands had been completely turned into claws, took the swaddle carefully, with a look of bewilderment on his seemingly cold face.
"There is such a thing!"
Diablo sighed, walked around the peasant woman who had turned into a sculpture, and continued to walk on the strange land.
That baby made Diablo aware of a problem—he was being assimilated by this world, and he didn't know whether it was because his soul was too young, or because the will of this world had already started to activate.
But what can be confirmed is that his perception just now was definitely distorted. Whether it was the peasant woman who was eager to save her son, or the dead child in her arms, everything was wrong, but they all seemed very reasonable.
……
"It seems that just a wisp of soul is not enough!"
On the continent of Rodinia, in the center of a world-renowned international metropolis, on top of a tall tower soaring into the sky, a young man sighed in a low voice in a banquet venue where celebrities and ladies from all over the world were invited.
"Your Excellency Diablo, you are the protagonist of this banquet, why are you hiding in the corner? It looks like you have something bothering you, can you tell me? Maybe I can help you out."
Even though he tried every means to sneak away, the young man hiding in the corner of the banquet was still found by a distinguished lady.
"I want to forge a set of weapons and armor, and I need some materials that are difficult to collect."
Looking at the imperial lady who was talking to him, Diablo was not polite.Because at this moment, he can say with confidence that almost none of the famous ladies present are not greedy for his body.
Chapter 400 The Big Wife Who Returned Suddenly
Although some are reluctant to admit it, at this time Diablo has already shown signs of becoming a soft rice dragon.
After all, the famous ladies and ladies from all the powerful countries in the world gathered in one city, tried every means to get close to him, and racked their brains to get a chance to get along with him.
