Sure enough, he couldn't do anything to the Xenomorphs.
Seeing Geralt running for his life, Fangzheng wasn't surprised. If this was a modern society, it would be fine. But in this era of cold weapons, the Xenomorphs were truly killing machines. Although they weren't invulnerable, their corrosive blood and unexpected attacks, coupled with their parasitic reproduction system, made Fangzheng certain that if he released the Xenomorphs in this world, it wouldn't take long for everything here to perish.
Originally, Fangzheng was thinking that if Geralt defeated the Xenomorphs, he would summon the Zerglings.
But for now … … let's stop here.
It's more or less enough.
Thinking until here, Fangzheng looked at Miao Jie.
"Go and welcome our guest in."
"Yes, Mr. Fangzheng."
Although the stalactite cave was like a maze, Geralt still smoothly broke through the obstacles and escaped with the Xenomorphs chasing after him. Then, he climbed up the cliff as fast as he could. As an experienced demon hunter, Geralt was clear that the monster hiding in the dark cave was not something he could deal with.
When Geralt finally climbed to the top of the cliff, he was shocked by the magnificent sculptures on both sides of the gate. But at this moment, Geralt saw a beautiful girl with green hair appear in front of him. She smiled and bowed to him.
"Hello, Mr. Geralt. We've been waiting for you for a long time."
Frankly speaking, Geralt still didn't understand what was going on. He just followed the girl into the door, passed through the dream-like forest, and arrived in front of the beautiful crystal castle. Although everything in front of him made Geralt's mind a mess, when he saw the figure standing on the steps, he immediately threw all the messy thoughts in his mind to the back of his mind and dashed forward.
"Ciri!"
"Geralt!!"
Ciri screamed when she saw Geralt. She ran down the stairs and the two of them hugged each other tightly.
"Alright, that's one thing."
Looking at this scene, Fangzheng nodded in satisfaction, turned around, and gestured to Miao Jie and Liz.
"Alright, don't be nosy. The father and daughter have a lot to talk about. Let's go back first."
On the other side, Ciri and Geralt didn't notice that the crowd had silently left. Instead, they hugged each other tightly. After a while, they reluctantly separated.
"I didn't expect you to have grown so big."
Looking at the girl in front of him, Geralt couldn't help but sigh. The girl also chuckled.
"Of course, I'll grow up too. But you... what's with that scar on the corner of your mouth? I've never seen it before. "
"Oh, about that …"
Geralt touched the corner of his mouth.
"It's just a griffin. There's nothing special about it. But you … how did the scar on your face disappear?"
"It was Mr Fangzheng who cured me. He said that girls should be fair and clean. It wouldn't look good to have a scar...."
"Who's Fangzheng?"
"He's a very powerful person, but he's a little strange."
".... Huh?"
"Come, let's sit down and talk!"
Ciri grabbed Geralt and sat down excitedly on the chair next to her. Then, they started chatting. Both sides had a lot to talk about. Geralt asked about Ciri's situation over the years, including what world she went to and how she escaped from the Wild Hunter. Ciri was also very curious about Geralt's current situation, especially the emotional entanglement between him and Yennefer....
The two of them had reunited after a long time, so they naturally had endless things to talk about. It wasn't until sunset that their conversation finally came to an end. Ciri brought Geralt to the castle to meet with Fangzheng and the others.
"Oh, you're done?"
Seeing the two of them walk in, Fangzheng raised his hand and waved. Ciri smiled and nodded at Fangzheng. Geralt also walked over and bowed to Fangzheng.
"Thank you for saving Ciri."
"You're welcome, it's nothing much... Then, there's no need to thank me. Let's talk business," Sheyan said with a smile.
Fangzheng made a gesture, and the two sat on the sofa opposite Fangzheng.
"I believe you've heard about the situation from Ciri, Mr Geralt. If we want Ciri to be completely safe, the Wild Hunter must be eliminated."
"Do you have a plan?"
"Of course. I have a plan."
Fangzheng snapped his fingers.
"According to Ciri, the Wild Hunter can sense the fluctuation of her teleportation and chase after her relentlessly. That's why they were able to chase after Ciri for so long. This time, because I was the one who sent Ciri back, the Wild Hunter didn't sense the fluctuation of her teleportation. So, we need to lure the snake out of its hole and bait them. My plan is very simple. You and Ciri go back to Kaer Morhen first and prepare to fight the Wild Hunter there. Of course, I don't think it'll be easy to deal with the Wild Hunter with just a few of you. But this is just a bait. When they confirm that Ciri is in Kaer Morhen, the Wild Hunter will definitely send out a large army. When they take the bait, I will immediately appear with my men and completely eliminate them. "
"... Ciri, what do you think?"
After listening to Fangzheng's plan, Geralt looked at Ciri, who nodded firmly.
"I believe in Mr Fangzheng, Geralt. He's really strong. Those Wild Hunters fought him once before, and they were no match for him at all … By the way, Mr Fangzheng, how's the progress of their research?"
Ciri suddenly remembered that before Fangzheng came to this world, he had given the other girls homework.
"Haha."
Hearing Ciri's question, Fangzheng chuckled.
"Let's see how it goes. If they can make it, they'll go together. If not, I'll deal with them alone."
"I can only hope that they can make it in time."
Ciri helplessly smiled bitterly and stood up. Upon seeing this scene, Fangzheng pricked up his brows.
"Well, I think you should stay here for dinner, but it seems like you can't wait to go back to Kaer Morhen.... I wish you all the best. We'll meet again on the battlefield of the Wild Hunt," said Sheyan with a smile.
Having said that, Fangzheng clapped his hands.
"Now that the seal has been lifted, you can go."
"Thank you, Mr Fangzheng!"
As he spoke, Hiri reached out and grabbed Geralt's hand.
"Then, we'll meet again!!"
As soon as the voice fell, a green light flashed, and Ciri and Geralt's figures disappeared into thin air, without a trace.
"Hahaha, looks like she's been holding it in for too long."
Fangzheng was not surprised by Ciri's eagerness to return to Kaer Morhen. After all, Ciri had said that the best memories of her childhood were in Kaer Morhen. If not for the fear that she would have to run around blindly after not being able to find Geralt, she would not have waited here patiently. Now that Geralt had been found, the most important thing was to go home and report that he was safe.
Just as Fangzheng had guessed, after returning to Kaer Morhen, Ciri was immediately immersed in the joy of reuniting with everyone, including Vesemir, who was like her grandfather to her, Yennefer, Lambert, Eskel, and the other demon hunters. Everyone gathered together, chatting enthusiastically and drinking to celebrate Ciri's return. At the same time, they also learned that the Wild Hunt was coming, as well as Ciri and Fangzheng's plan.
Of course, after being lectured by Fangzheng, Ciri's mind was much clearer. Of course, she would not let her friends, who were like family to die. In order to defend against the Wild Hunt, Ciri also took out the universal armors, shield generators, and all kinds of weapons that Fangzheng had given her ….
After trying out these weapons, even the demon hunters were amazed.
"I didn't expect there to be such a world and such weapons …."
Vesemir could not help but sigh as he looked at the pitch-black metal firearms in his hands. They quickly accepted these weapons. After all, in the eyes of the demon hunters, the weapons that Ciri brought were essentially similar to bows and crossbows, except that they were faster and more powerful …. Of course, this was a good thing for the upcoming battle.
But the armor that came from mass effect was amazing. The armor looked abnormally thin, and it felt as heavy as leather in the hands. But when you put it on, you found that its defense was comparable to heavy armor. Not only that, according to Ciri, the armor was completely sealed. It was not afraid of fire, water, or poisonous gas. It was just that the armor looked a little strange …. But demon hunters did not care about that!
At that moment, Yennefer pulled Ciri aside and asked her in detail.
"Ciri, why did that Fangzheng guy help you so much?"
Compared to the careless demon hunters, Yennefer, who was a sorcerer, was obviously more meticulous. If the demon hunters had only brought her back, it could have been said that they had good intentions. But to give her so many powerful equipment, it was obvious that there was a problem.
"He's not trying to use you for something, is he? It's better to be careful."
"Uh …. But I don't think there's anything about me that's worth Mr. Fangzheng using."
Ciri scratched her head in response to Yennefer's reminder. She had been following Fangzheng for some time now, so she had a good understanding of this man.
"The Wild Hunter chased me because I can cross worlds, but Mr. Fangzheng also has the ability to cross worlds. In fact, he was the one who sent me back here."
"Didn't he say what he wanted you to do? What did he say when he gave you these equipment? "
"Well …."
As he said this, Hiri's expression turned ugly.
"He said he couldn't stand it, that I'm a disgrace to transmigrators …."
"….??? What do you mean? "
"I don't quite understand …. But according to Mr. Fangzheng, he thinks that me crossing worlds to avoid the Wild Hunter is a little … degrading?"
"He doesn't like you, does he?"
"Mr. Fangzheng has a lot of beautiful girls around him. I'm not one of them. And he doesn't seem to have that kind of feeling towards me."
Ciri was a grown woman, so she knew a little about men. In fact, she had met many men who expressed their feelings towards her, so she was not completely clueless in this regard.
"…."
Yennefer was still dubious about Ciri's answer. Although Ciri had grown up, Yennefer had always treated her as her own daughter, so she naturally suspected that she had been tricked. But since she could not get any information from Ciri, it seemed that she would have to meet with Fangzheng in person to talk about it in detail.
Of course, before that, the first thing they had to deal with was the Wild Hunter.
