After confirming that the water ghost whistle was the masterpiece of the bloody red fox, Vesemir followed the advice of the witcher apprentice and came to a long and narrow lake. It was noon and the wind was calm. Ailin walked to the shore. The gentle wind could not even make wrinkles on the lake surface. Against the backdrop of green grass and trees, the smooth lake surface reflected the blue sky and snow-white clouds. Quiet and peaceful. "It's a good place to let go of all worries." Ailin thought. The witcher apprentice took a long breath, and the fresh and refreshing air with the fragrance of grass and trees went straight to his lungs. The vague anxiety in his heart could not help but fade a little. In this leisurely mood, Ailin asked: "Master Vesemir, doesn't such a beautiful place have a name?" I don't know if it's because he has seen it too much, Vesemir was not touched by the scenery here. After hearing Ailin's question, he answered casually:
"Killer Lake." "You can call it this name if you want." "Killer Lake?" Ailin repeated. Why does such a beautiful place have such a murderous name? Confused, the witcher apprentice asked directly, "Why is it called this name?" Vesemir was silent for a moment, sighed, and said: "This is the starting point of the High Mountain Trial." Alin heard this and subconsciously tilted his head to take another look. The scenery is still the same, but in Alin's eyes, it is no longer as quiet as before. The strong murderous intent and the breath of death seem to be hidden under the calm lake. "According to you," Vesemir broke the silence, "this is the most suitable place I can think of to use this flute." Just now, after the witcher praised the exquisiteness of the water ghost flute and the well-deserved reputation of the sorceress, he was like a child who got a new toy, and asked excitedly where to use this magic prop. "Of course, the place with more water ghosts is better." That's what Alin answered at the time. In fact. The place Vesemir picked is really good. There is no better place than here near Kaer Morhen. However, is it really legal to bring the apprentice to the trial site in advance? The demon hunter apprentice glanced at Vesemir.
The demon hunter master had no expression on his face. After a moment of hesitation, Erin pulled out Elsa and nodded to Vesemir. "Then let's go here. And... thank you... Master Vesemir." The demon hunter master did not respond to the second half of Erin's words. He raised the water ghost whistle and shook it gently according to the method taught by the demon hunter apprentice. "Quack~Quack~" A sound similar to that of a water ghost came from the cylindrical whistle body. The sound was not loud. After shaking it twice, the demon hunter master stuffed the water ghost whistle into his chest and pulled out a silver sword from his back. This is the silver sword used for apprentice training. About half a minute passed, there was no wind or waves, and the surface of the "Killer Lake" was still as smooth as a mirror. Did it fail? The demon hunter apprentice couldn't help thinking. Can a defective item be found in the Demon Hunter's Notes box? This is a blue-quality item. Another minute passed. Even Vesemir glanced at Aylin with some suspicion, and reached into his cotton armor, ready to shake it again. Aylin cursed the Demon Hunter's Notes for being inferior, and held Elsa awkwardly, not knowing whether to sheathe his sword. At this time, the lake seemed to be windy. The emerald green mirror suddenly rippled, approaching Aylin and his friends in circles from a far distance. Aylin was stunned when he saw this. Then, he saw Vesemir's hand reaching into his leather armor and stopped. The Demon Hunter Master looked at the circles of ripples on the lake, as if observing something. A few seconds later, Vesemir's face suddenly changed. He grabbed Aylin, who was still in a daze, and ran in the opposite direction of "Killer Lake". Just as the witcher apprentice was about to ask, he heard Vesemir shouting: "Run!" "Run to the mountain, quick!" After hearing this, Arlin quickly stepped on the ground with his feet, followed the witcher master's back, and ran into the depths of the forest.
Seeing Vesemir so anxious, the witcher apprentice vaguely realized something and turned his head to take a look. The moment the circles of ripples touched the lake shore, they were smashed, intertwined, and eliminated. Arlin had never seen such a scene. The originally mirror-like calm lake surface was covered with bright red fish fins in the blink of an eye. The light green clear lake water also turned blue. This is a different color from the blue of the sky and the sea. It is three-dimensional, shadowed, and spotted. It makes people uncomfortable, disgusting, and numbing. "Quack~Quack~" The noisy sound, within a few seconds, changed from faint to noisy, and finally deafening. Groups of water ghosts, one after another, emerged from the water, climbed up the lakeshore, and rushed towards the running Vesemir and Aylin. No need to ask the witcher master. Aylin deeply realized that if he couldn't outrun the monsters behind him, he would no longer have to worry about the mountain trial. "Aylin! When Ms. Vera gave you the props, didn't she tell you the precautions?" The witcher master didn't look back. The strong wind that rushed past his ears brought him shock and confusion. The witcher apprentice relied on Vesemir's hand holding his collar to barely keep up with his speed. Erin, concentrating on the terrain under his feet, jumped over a shallow pit and dodged the branches of trees that suddenly appeared... He had no energy to answer Vesemir's questions. The witcher master didn't need Erin's answer. He was just so shocked that he had countless questions in his mouth. "Fuck!" He shouted. Hearing Vesemir's rare sweet words, Erin's heart skipped a beat and he almost tripped over a stone. "Master Vesemir, what's wrong!" the witcher apprentice shouted. "Shut up! Follow closely! Look at the road!" Before thinking, Erin saw the figure in front of him suddenly turn around. In shock, the witcher apprentice was dragged off the ground by a huge force on his collar. In the blink of an eye, he drew an arc and landed steadily.
Without waiting to catch his breath, the two quickly ran towards a col. ... Soon, Erin and Vesemir moved to a cave. This cave seemed to be a dead end. Although it was well ventilated, except for the entrance through which the witcher master and apprentice came in, it was surrounded by hard stone walls. Even the narrow entrance could only accommodate two people. "Hu-chi-hu-chi-" Erin bent over, holding the silver sword tightly in his hand, panting like a broken bellows. Vesemir ran too fast, and Erin had no time to sheath Elsa's sword. "Erin, are you okay?" The witcher apprentice took two breaths and shook his head. "Vesemir... Master, I... I'm fine..." With the light coming in from the cave entrance, Erin looked up and saw that Vesemir was not out of breath, and his face was only slightly redder than usual. It seemed that the intense escape just now was just a warm-up exercise. The witcher master stood in the middle of the cave entrance with his sword, looking out straight. About two minutes later. Ailin let out a long sigh, stood up with his sword in hand, and stood side by side with Vesemir. At this time, a noisy sound of "quack~quack~" gradually came from outside the cave. A large group of water ghosts. Here they come! A new author and a new book, please read, comment, collect, and vote for me!
