In the summer, the Wild Hunters would always fly back and forth in the sky. They would bring bad luck. The Wild Hunters always foretold an impending disaster.
Ciri remembered this sentence very clearly. In fact, this was also the portrayal of the Wild Hunters. They would appear on summer nights, accompanied by bone-chilling wind and snow, riding warhorses in the sky. They were cruel, cold, and merciless in pursuit of their prey. Once they fixed their eyes on their prey, they would chase them to the end.
And now, they appeared in front of Ciri once again.
Along with the sound of hooves, Wild Hunt descended from the sky on his warhorses. They wore dark red armor and wore skull-like helmets on their faces, giving off the impression that they were malicious spirits who had come to claim their lives. In fact, many people would be so frightened by this scene that they would throw away their armor and flee in panic.
But the girls obviously wouldn't flee in fear. They weren't country bumpkins who hadn't seen the world. They had transmigrated several times and had seen many things. Although there were no Wild Hunters in the Resident Evil world, the greatest benefit of transmigrating to this world was that it broadened their horizons. They wouldn't panic when they saw some strange things.
"Time Deceleration!"
Emma hurriedly raised her staff in the face of the galloping knights. Soon, the figures of the Wild Hunters who were originally galloping suddenly slowed down as if they were in water. Their movements even became slower than that of ordinary people.
At the same time, Altina also raised her hand.
"Time Drive."
Golden light emerged from the girls' bodies. The moment the magic took effect, they immediately began to attack.
"Hah!!!"
Liz shouted. The chain sword in her hand suddenly turned into a long whip and swept towards the Wild Hunters in front of her. Her speed was as fast as lightning. The slowed Wild Hunters didn't have time to react and were directly swept off their horses. At the same time, Laura, Elyse, and Allein also flashed and rushed forward.
"Earth Splitter!"
"Wind Splitter!"
"Cross Slash!!"
The pitiful Wild Hunter Knights were dismounted by Liz. Before they could even land, they were struck by Laura's sword qi. Then, they were sent flying by the Fenghua Formation of the Elysee and were torn into pieces by Allein's Cross Slash.
"Haha …"
At this moment, Hiri shot forward like an arrow and finished off a Wild Hunter with a single slash of her sword. She turned her head to look at the Wild Hunter's group suffering at the hands of this group of girls, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up into a smile. To be honest, she was very impressed by the magic in this world. Although Ciri herself had received training in magic, to her, the magic in this world was too convenient. As long as there was a conductor, anyone could use it, and these magic spells were not weak. Take the Time Deceleration and Time Drive spells that Emma and Yaltina had just cast, for example. If the demon hunters had such spells, then it would be much easier to deal with the monsters.
Although he had expected this, he didn't expect this world to be so powerful.
Ciri couldn't help but lament as she watched the Wild Hunter Knights being wiped out by the young ladies. If it were Ciri alone, she wouldn't be able to kill all of them. Even if she could kill three to five of them, she would still have to escape in the end. As for the others, they would either turn around and run away in fear, or they would be killed without being able to fight back.
But this time, they actually wiped out a group of Wild Hunter Knights so easily?
Thinking of this, Ciri felt a little tempted.
If it was them, perhaps they could really help her escape this fate?
The Wild Hunters didn't give up their attack just because of the rough start. Soon, circles of light appeared in all directions, and dozens of fully-armed Wild Hunters walked out and launched another attack on the young ladies. Facing these ferocious warriors, the young ladies performed quite well. In front of them, the ferocious Wild Hunters couldn't gain any advantage at all.
But in Ciri's opinion, this was too careless.
"We must retreat immediately!!"
After cutting down a Wild Hunter Knight, Ciri hurriedly returned to the young lady's side and shouted.
"There are too many of them. We won't be able to deal with them alone!"
"But we can't go back to Clothbell."
Emma shook her head, rejecting Ciri's suggestion.
"If we go back, these enemies will follow us and turn Crossbell into a battlefield!"
"…"
Upon hearing Emma's answer, Hiri hesitated for a moment, but didn't say anything. Just as Emma said, if they were to return, the Wild Hunters would naturally chase after them. And because the Wild Hunters had teleportation skills, they could come and go as they pleased even in a fortress with high walls. Of course, Hiri had always wondered why a city as large as Crossberg had no walls. In her own world, even ordinary villages and towns had fences, and big cities were even more so surrounded by walls. It was hard to imagine that a prosperous and magnificent city like Crossberg would have no walls ….
"But if this goes on … .it's not good!!"
Before Hiri could finish his sentence, the chilly wind in front of them suddenly grew stronger. Then, a huge ship that looked like a medieval warship appeared out of thin air and slowly appeared in front of everyone. Hiri's expression changed when he saw the warship.
"That's the Hunter's warship! We have to retreat, or else … "
"— —!"
Hiri didn't know what happened.
All she saw was a dazzling ray of light that seemed to be condensed from the sun flashing past her eyes and hitting the warship the Wild Hunters teleported over. But the next moment, accompanied by an earth-shattering explosion, the huge warship that the Wild Hunters were so proud of was blown into the sky. Flames soared into the sky, illuminating the surrounding forest.
Seeing that their warships had been destroyed, the hunters panicked and quickly retreated. Not long after, they all disappeared into the door of light and were nowhere to be seen.
"…."
Only then did Hiri seem to remember something. She turned around and looked in the direction of Crossbell.
Under the moonlight, the huge warship that looked like a metal mountain hovered silently in the air as if there was no movement.
But now, Hiri finally understood why Emma and the others were so confident.
After repelling the Wild Hunters' attack, the girls immediately returned to the Starlight Tower. At that time, Hiri found Fangzheng again.
"There's something I want to talk to you about."
Compared to before, Hiri now looked more serious. Fangzheng nodded and gestured for her to sit down.
"Okay, speak."
"…."
Seeing Fangzheng in front of her, Ciri felt a little nervous. However, she still took a deep breath, sat on a chair, and confessed her origins to Fangzheng.
It turned out that Hiri was not an ordinary person. She had the blood of an ancient race. This blood had brought her many benefits, including the ability to "transmigrate". The Wild Hunter was a race of elves from another world. They had once tried to capture Ciri because, according to the Wild Hunter, part of Ciri's bloodline came from their ancestors. This "Wild Hunter" race had the ability to freely transmigrate to various worlds since a long time ago.
But for some reason, they were gradually losing this ability. So in order to regain this ability, they set their eyes on Hiri, who had inherited the bloodline of their ancestors.
Originally, the Wild Hunters wanted Hiri to mate with their king to give birth to a brand new heir and bloodline. Unfortunately, the Elven King was already old and frail at that time. He was powerless even if he wanted to. In addition, as an Elf, he had no interest in a human like Ciri. Therefore, although the two of them stayed together for a period of time, Ciri was not violated by the other party.
The others saw this and became anxious. In order to make the Elven King interested in Hiri, someone in the Wild Hunters made the Elven King take a drug. Simply put, it was similar to a large viagra.
However, the Elven King was old and weak, so how could he withstand such a strong drug? As a result, he died before he could even take off his clothes. Hiri took the opportunity to escape again. In order to avoid the pursuit of the Wild Hunters, she used her ability to transmigrate to other worlds several times …. And now, she came to the continent of Semriya.
"I see."
After listening to Hiri's story,
Fangzheng raised an eyebrow. He was curious why Hiri was being hunted by a race. Now it seemed that it was for the continuation of the race ….
But a race that could freely transmigrate to other worlds?
"Wait for a moment."
Fangzheng collected his thoughts and said to Hiri. He then opened his personal terminal and contacted the Goddess of Space.
"Miss Edith, I have something to ask you …."
Fangzheng briefly repeated the matter regarding Ciri and the Wild Hunt before asking, "What's the matter?
"Have you ever created a race that can freely transmigrate to other worlds?"
"I haven't."
However, the Goddess of Space's answer was quick.
"Transmigrating to other worlds will cause chaos in the Order. Unless it's a race of Order, it's impossible to grant such an ability …. Of course, there may be one or two exceptions, but I've never created an entire race …. Ah!"
"…. Is there a problem?"
Hearing the Goddess of Space's "ah", Fangzheng knew that something was wrong.
"… Well … I'm a little embarrassed, but when I first created the planetary civilization, I did ask some races to assist me …. After all …. that …."
Although the Goddess of Space did not say it directly, Fangzheng knew what she was trying to say.
Flunkies ….
"So the reason why their race will lose this ability to transmigrate to other worlds is …."
"Isn't that normal?"
However, in the face of Fangzheng's question, the Goddess of Space was puzzled.
"After all, I'm only granting them this ability temporarily. When the power disappears, they won't be able to use it anymore."
"…."
Well, the puzzle was solved.
