Geralt used a typical Western-style two-handed sword. In order to prevent the daytime demon from taking advantage of him by slashing too hard, he was very cautious in his attacks. Even though I used the Yaden Seal in advance to control the speed of the day demon, I still managed to deal with it quite well.
However, it is undeniable that it is indeed difficult to deal with spiritual monsters like the Day Demon with cold weapons alone.
Because as soon as the seal begins to fail slightly, the spirit body will immediately fall into a semi-quantum state. Not only will it disappear, but the slashing of the physical weapon will hardly cause any harm to it.
However, Geralt's response was very skillful. He tried his best to avoid the day demon spirit's negative counterattack from hitting him, and tried to accumulate the damage to this group of spirit monsters as much as possible.
The day demon spirits soon began to weaken at a speed visible to the naked eye. It seemed that in this world, silver was indeed a necessary material to fight against monsters.
But will it be so helpless?
"Poof!" The day demon spirit suddenly exploded, raising a huge cloud of dust that immediately enveloped Xie Yuan and Geralt.
"Hmph! You are treating me like a soft persimmon." Although he was shrouded in dust, Xie Yuan had no fear in his heart. Subconsciously, he did not feel the fatal feeling from it.
Xie Yuan didn't want to take action - he wouldn't pay a high price to let himself take action. If Geralt was to solve these two, he would have to take care of these two. It would be unreasonable to steal one person's head, and it would be a huge loss.
So he just emptied his mind and body immediately, then formed the Duko (Fudo Mingwang) seal with his hands, and recited the Vajrasattva mantra in his heart -
The word "Lin" is printed!
"Peng!" He felt a gas-like energy explode as soon as it touched him, and then he didn't notice it at all.
And as the smoke and dust dissipated immediately, what appeared in front of Xie Yuan and Geralt's eyes turned out to be four or five miniature versions of the day demon spirits!
They began to circle around Geralt and try to drain him of his energy.
However, Geralt, who was under siege, was not afraid. Instead, he was a little confused: it seemed that these clones of the day demon were half dead, as if they had all been seriously injured.
The key is that the clone of the demon spirit in the daytime seems to be secretly increasing the distance between itself and Xie Yuan?
How is this going?
But now that Geralt discovered some of the monster's purpose, it was even more impossible to let it do what it wanted. He quickly arranged to attack one of the clones while he was injured.
"Chi...chi..."
Although Geralt got two more burns due to his desperate attack, he quickly eliminated one of them.
Then Geralt repeated his same trick, taking out the other three clones despite being burned four times, and then killed the last clone without any damage.
"Poof!" With a sound, the clones of the day demon spirit that were quickly killed merged into one, turning into the day demon spirit that showed its teeth and claws.
But at this time, the day demon spirit no longer looked as majestic and evil as it had just appeared in front of the two of them. It was full of evil energy and looked very embarrassed.
"Do you need my help?" Xie Yuan slowly followed Geralt from behind and took out a long stick with a silver-plated tip. "You have to deal with the griffon next, so you must conserve your strength."
But Geralt still signaled to back off: "No need, it's just a day demon. Give me two hours to recover after it's dealt with."
"Okay." Xie Yuan also took a few steps back obediently.
Geralt was indeed not lying. After the day demon in this state continued to fight for ten minutes, he was hit by a fatal thrust, and his whole body turned into phosphorus fire, and he let out a shrill scream:
"ah!
!
"
And these are almost the last words left by the day demon spirit in the world.
But Xie Yuan was still very curious and went up to see the place where the demon spirit died during the day, because there was a large pile of powder here.
"What is this?" Xie Yuan curiously tapped his toes on the ground next to the powder pile.
"The debris left behind by the body of the day demon after its death contains many good potion components, as well as trophies that are commemorative to us demon hunters."
Geralt came up and explained to Xie Yuan while choosing.
Xie Yuan soon saw Geralt taking out some broken gemstones from the powder pile, a ball of fluorescent suspension, and a ball of thread... something that looked like the hair of a daytime demon. .
"This is the trophy of the day demon spirit. After the body is destroyed, I can collect the parts that have not been destroyed in time and put them on the horse's butt." Geralt collected these thread-like objects in a small cloth bag, forming a full bag.
"Okay." After all, this is a monster that Geralt hunted by himself. Xie Yuan is not qualified to comment on how to deal with it.
He was just worried about Geralt's health: "How do you feel now? Can you continue to fight?"
"I'm fine, Gulu Gulu." Geralt said he was fine and then took out a bottle of orange light from the saddle strap on his horse, opened the cork and drank it in one gulp.
Xie Yuan didn't point out this, but he was a little interested in the medicine he drank: "Is this... a healing potion?"
"Yes." Geralt took out another drink and took a sip, perhaps to dispel the smell of medicine in his mouth. "This is a special healing potion for witchers. We named him Swallow."
"It's a good name." Xie Yuan also nodded in agreement.
After hastily collecting the loot, Xie Yuan and Geralt continued to mount their horses and rushed back to the other side of the village.
On the way back to the village, although there was still something to do in the afternoon, because I had just killed a slightly difficult monster, the speed was not very fast, and of course it did not take too much time.
However, when he arrived at the client's door, Xie Yuan left first, letting Geralt enjoy this honor.
But when Geralt came out, he threw Xie Yuan a small blue gem.
Xie Yuan caught it with one hand: "I didn't expect that they were so poor and still had a gem as reward."
"This kind of gem has no magic. It can be used as an ornament at most. It is not worth much at this time." Geralt told Xie Yuan, "They originally wanted to give me the remaining gold coins as payment, but considering your richness As a reward, I still think it would be better to leave some gold coins to make their lives easier. I think this sapphire should be yours."
"Thank you." Xie Yuan didn't hesitate and accepted it directly. He planned to use this thing to make a ring and give it to Rogge, or to Ada and Anna.
After repairing the day demon in the well, Geralt took Xie Yuan to the river to collect sage - after pulling it out, it was really smelly, and Xie Yuanguang felt refreshed when he smelled it!
Of course, by the river, it would be necessary to clean up the water ghosts who lived by the river and made a living by eating floating corpses. However, following the water ghosts along the way, Geralt discovered a magical place - this thing seemed to have the ability to condense The function of magic source power, after Geralt absorbed the additional fire attribute source power here, he could actually increase the Yingeni Seal.
At least he had just used Yingeni once and burned the demon spirit that appeared in the blink of an eye until he grinned. After killing the demon spirit, Geralt found that this place was an abandoned auditorium.
Down below, Geralt discovered that a demon hunter who once belonged to the Snake Sect died here, but he left a letter and a blueprint of the Snake Sect's silver sword on his body.
"Snake faction?" Xie Yuan studied this blueprint with great interest, "What factions do you demon hunters have?"
After the blueprint was discovered by Geralt, it was handed over to Xie Yuan - who is called Xie Yuan, the highest level forger here, and he has a very high standard.
Not anyone has the ability to let the always proud dwarf craftsman do it honestly. Geralt has seen Xie Yuan's process of forging a complicated splicing stick. It can be said that this method is more than enough to forge a demon hunter's sword.
"It's too many to count based on schools. I'll just give you a list of schools that still exist today based on styles."
Geralt stretched out his finger: "The cat sect is characterized by a light and floating style and wears light armor; the wolf sect, snake sect and flying lion sect wear medium armor. The third one is almost extinct, the wolf sect." The faction pays attention to comprehensive balance, using swordsmanship and seals to actively carry out small-scale attacks without interruption; the snake faction emphasizes tricky attack angles and fast and lingering offensives; and those who use heavy armor are generally the bear faction. This may still exist , but it may have perished, their style advocates head-on confrontation.”
"So the ones that are still active in the world, at least what you have an impression of, are the three sects of wolves, snakes and cats?" Xie Yuan listened to the meaning of Geralt's words and elaborated.
But Geralt's answer was even more sad: "No, it should be said that the Snake Sect is about to become extinct. It only has one member left, and it is unknown whether he is alive or dead - but you may not know that I am responsible for the destruction of the Snake Sect." It’s an unshirkable responsibility, but I really don’t want to do this.”
"Oh, I'm sorry... let's not talk about it for now." Xie Yuan immediately changed the topic and continued to study the drawings for a while, then touched the paper with a playful expression, "Me... interesting."
"What's wrong?"
"You are so lucky." Xie Yuan glanced at Geralt and took out a piece of letter paper and a blueprint that was also the same as the silver sword blueprint from his backpack. "I have been operating in the dense forest, and there is a group of bandits entrenched in the ruins of a castle. The thieves inside attacked me as soon as they saw me, so I killed them all and raided the den - that's what's in the loot here."
Xie Yuan handed the letter to Geralt: "I don't know your language very well, so I can't read the letter. I'll leave this to you."
In fact, Xie Yuan understands writing. After all, he has read many people's memories. He still doesn't understand the writing style of the nobles, but he can still listen, read and write.
But Xie Yuan never looked at the local bulletin board, and Geralt had been with him for a while, so he could pretend to be this.
Geralt also believed this, so he naturally accepted the letter, "Remember to help me forge two witcher swords."
"No problem." Xie Yuan agreed, "It doesn't look difficult. I can make it for you soon."
Now the two of them are going to find Vesemir. The old witcher who has been walking around the streets these days has already set up a good hunting ground - a wheat field that has just been harvested. Basically, you can do whatever the witcher wants. toss.
According to experience, they only need to place a clay trap made like a sheep in an open field, and then apply the juice of buckthorn grass to attract the griffons... Well, this thing is really delicious!
Then the three of them hid in a bush not far away and waited quietly.
Then, during this moment of chatting, Vesemir suddenly asked Xie Yuan: "So, can you tell me about your world when you have time?"
Um? Boy, clichés happen all the time!
