"Are you going to deal with them?" Leo turned his head and looked behind him, and asked the people following him in a deep voice.

Sylvia shook her head and said: "There's no need. It's the last day. As long as they don't provoke us, don't pay attention to them."

"Where to go next?" Leo asked again.

"Let's go and see the arena!" Sylvia thought for a while and said, "There used to be a knight's arena in France. I remember watching the knight's arena when I was a kid. Unfortunately, that place was demolished later."

After hearing Sylvia's request, the two of them turned around and walked towards the gladiatorial arena.

However, when they arrived outside the arena, they found an angry Geralt, Regier and others wandering outside the arena, wondering what they were doing.

"Geralt, what happened?" The two men immediately stepped forward to ask about the situation.

Before Geralt could speak, Angouleme jumped out to answer the question.

It turned out that Cassirer, Angouleme and Milva went to nearby taverns and grocery stores to inquire about information to see if they could find out some information related to Styga Castle. After all, if there were really people in Styga Castle, they would need to purchase supplies.

Will definitely come to Claremont.

As a result, they did find out some information about Stiga Castle. They knew that there are some people living in Stiga Castle. Most of these people are villains. They once had conflicts with them in full view of the public.

He was dismembered without any punishment afterwards, because the leader of the group was a relative of Viscount Dominique Bombastus Hofner, the great man of Clermont.

This Viscount Dominique Bombastus Hofnar is definitely one of the top figures in Claremont. Even the mayor has to lower his head in front of him, because nearly 40% of the town's industry belongs to him.

Lord Viscount, the other 60% is more or less invested by him, and he also built the gladiatorial arena in the city.

It can be said that the entire economic lifeline of Claremont is in the hands of the Viscount, so much so that the appointment of officials in the town sometimes needs to obey his orders.

Although the residents of the town knew very well what kind of bad guy the Viscount was, his reputation outside was very good because he regularly organized some charity activities and built several orphanages, hospitals and nurseries.

, and therefore people outside think that he is an upright, kind and good person.

Also because Dominique Bombastus Hofnar was related to Stiga Castle, Cassirer asked more about Dominique Bombastus Hofnar at that time.

, as a result, they found out some information that might be related to Xili.

Some time ago, a relative from Stiga Castle sent Dominique Bombastus Hofnar a gladiator. This gladiator was very strong and won several games in the arena.

It's just that the reason why this gladiator attracted people's attention was not because he won a few gladiatorial games, but because this gladiator was just a little girl, a little girl with white hair and scars on her face.

When mentioning the little girl, the person who told this story also looked at Angouleme and felt that Angouleme looked very similar to the little girl except for the color of her hair and the lack of scars on her face.

At this moment, everyone knew that the gladiator was Ciri, and then they found out that someone was going to arrest the little girl. As a result, the little girl killed two of those people, injured two more, and the little girl also escaped from the arena.

, this matter has been a topic of discussion for Claremont for a long time. After all, there are not many things that can see Dominique Bombastus Hofnar suffer.

After Cassirer and others found out the information, they immediately returned to the hotel and told Geralt the news.

After hearing the news, Geralt ran to the arena with his steel sword in hand to settle the score with Dominique Bombastus Hofnar.

However, Dominique Bombastus Hofnar did not seem to be in the arena, and Geralt knew about Dominique Bombastus from ordinary staff in the arena through the control of the witcher's seal.

S. Hofnar was no longer in the city at all, which made Geralt too angry to set out. He could only stand and wander outside the arena, considering whether to destroy some of Dominique Bombastus Hofnar's properties.

Vent anger.

When Sylvia and Leo were shopping just now, they also habitually inquired about some local information about Claremont, including information about Dominique Bombastus Hofnar, and they knew about this Viscount

Your Excellency is also a local salt official appointed by the Nilfgaard Empire, and most of the money he makes to create various industries now comes from the salt service.

So, Sylvia persuaded him: "It's useless for you to destroy this place. It won't hurt his roots at all. These industries are just his sideline business. His main business is the salt mine. Unless it's a powerful person,

Noble, deprive him of his title and take away his position, otherwise even if you destroy the entire Claremont, it will only be a small loss of property to him."

Hearing what Sylvia said, Geralt felt that the words were reasonable in his heart, but he still had no intention of calming down emotionally. When he thought that Ciri was actually arranged to have a fight with someone in this arena,

In a life-and-death fight, his anger kept rising.

"You guys, you dare to cause trouble outside the Viscount's arena, you are really desperate." At this time, a dozen idlers and villains with weapons emerged from an alley. These idlers, villains

Each of them looked so fierce that they almost had the word "bad guy" written on their face. The leader of them walked towards Geralt and the others while shouting loudly. He pointed the weapon in his hand at Geralt and said: "Arena"

We just lack a freak to attract the audience. After catching you, I think the Viscount will be happy to pay a high price to buy a freak like you and put it on display in the arena." As he said that, he looked at Leo and Sylvie again.

Ya, said: "You two guys stole the armor passed down by my family, and you still dare to show off here..."

Sylvia didn't listen to the other party's nonsense at all, and said to Geralt: "I think you should handle them."

Geralt, who was already filled with rage, rushed towards those people with his steel sword without even thinking.

Those idle men and villains did not expect that Geralt would take action first, so they were stunned for a moment. Before they could recover, they saw Geralt raising his hand and making a gesture, followed by an invisible force.

After rushing over, those who couldn't stand all fell down the moment the invisible force fell on them, while those who didn't fall couldn't stand still, and their heads were a little dizzy.

Before they could wake up, Geralt had already swung the steel sword in his hand. Every time he swung the sword, a stream of blood spattered out. One person fell to the ground. In less than a moment, all these idle men and villains were killed.

He fell into a pool of blood.

Everyone around looked at all this in horror and fled to nearby shops to hide. The street suddenly became quiet.

After some killings, Geralt's anger was vented and he calmed down. He then turned to look at Angoulin and others who looked worried, and said, "Sorry for making you worry!"

"It's okay, uncle! It's okay!" Angoulin shook his head repeatedly.

"It's better for us to leave here." Cassirer looked at the corpse on the ground and said.

Geralt nodded.

Everyone hurried to the hotel, obviously they would not be able to rest in the city tonight.

At this time, Leo, who never joked, suddenly said: "I wonder if your nickname will become the Butcher of Claremont?"

After hearing this, everyone turned their heads and looked at Leo, who was speechless.

"You're really not suitable for telling jokes." Sylvia smiled and shook her head.

The group of people quickly returned to the hotel, and without saying anything else, they took out the horses and luggage from the stable and rode straight out of the city.

Not long after Geralt and the others left, the town's security team came to the hotel and asked Leo about their whereabouts. As a result, they found out that they had all left, so they did not continue to pursue them.

In Claremont, a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, people die every day, but it is not a very important thing. If the number of people who die this time is not too many, the people who do it are outsiders, and they do it outside the Viscount's arena.

Yes, maybe the Sheriff is still sleeping in his office and won't come here at all.

Just like countless cases that happened in Claremont, this case also turned into casualties in street fights after a lot of trouble, and no one paid attention to it anymore.

After leaving Claremont, the group simply set up camp in a forest clearing far away from Claremont. While setting up camp, Geralt once again apologized to everyone. If he hadn't been impulsive, everyone should be able to get enough of it now.

of rest.

Regarding this, everyone said that they didn't need to worry about it. They were already used to resting in the wild anyway.

After that, everyone didn't chat for too long. They ate some food sold in Claremont and rested.

Early the next morning, everyone packed up their belongings and continued on the road, heading towards Styga Castle.

They did not encounter any obstacles along the way and went very smoothly. However, because they were not familiar with the road, they ran to the wrong place. Fortunately, they found it in time and quickly turned back to the right road. In the evening, they arrived at the location of Stiga Castle.

place.

Stiga Castle was built on the edge of a cliff next to a lake. Because it was built as a fortress, the city walls are very strong and the location is extremely dangerous. You can only attack from the main entrance and cannot sneak in from other places.

Through the moonlight, Geralt could clearly see the guards patrolling back and forth on the castle wall. He could see that they were holding their hands very tightly, as if they were protecting or guarding something. From this, it can be seen that Wilgefortz has great power.

Probably in a castle.

When Geralt turned around and was about to discuss with everyone what should be done, Leo stood up and said: "I will climb up the city wall later, then get rid of the guards on the city wall, open the city gate, and you can go through the main entrance.

Attack in, but once the mechanism on the city gate is opened, the alarm will be triggered, and other guards in the castle will be alerted. I'm afraid you will have to deal with a lot of people." With that, he turned to Sylvia and said:

"You will follow them later. With you here, those guards shouldn't be a problem."

"What about you? What are you going to do when we deal with those guards?" Angoulan asked with some confusion.

Leo said in a deep voice: "I'm going to find the person holding my things. If I'm not mistaken, that person should be Widget Fortz."

Just when Geralt was checking the status of the guards through his eyes, Leo had already controlled all the situations in the castle through the spiritual network, and also sensed the locations of the remaining pages of Night God's Sigh through the tattoo on his back.

However, due to the interference from the broken pages of Ye Shen Sigh, and the large amount of anti-magic metal in that place, his mental network was unable to specifically detect the situation inside, and could only vaguely sense a few people.

After hearing Leo's words, Geralt and others expressed no objection, and then careful Sylvia reminded everyone to put the wizard's healing potion that Leo had given them before in a place where they can drink it at any time, so that they can drink it during the battle.

If you are injured, you can drink medicine in time to treat the wound.

Leo took off his cloak, threw it on the ground, and then quickly rushed towards the outer wall of the castle.

Although he was wearing a heavy armor, his movements were still as nimble as a cheetah. In the blink of an eye, he was under the city wall. Then he was seen kicking the ground hard, jumping up, and then casting a psychic power downwards.

The impact pushed him into the air. After reaching the height of the city wall, he turned over and jumped over.

At the same time, he also drew out the two abyss swords in his hand, directly splitting a nearby guard soldier in half who had not yet reacted, and then threw the sword out and stabbed the heads of the two guard knights.

After pulling out the big sword, Leo grabbed the torch on the brazier and shook it in the air to notify the other side, then jumped off the city wall and pulled the hinges that closed the city gate and gate.

Although the piercing bells rang in the castle the moment he turned the hinge, it did not affect him. He quickly turned the winch and opened all the castle gates and gates. Geralt and others came from

People rushed in from outside. At this time, some guards closest to the city gate had already rushed out.

Compared to Geralt, Sylvia's movements were faster. She took out the repeating crossbow and quickly shot deadly arrows. When Geralt and others were fighting each other, they had already

Half of them fell down.

However, Leo did not look at the battle situation here, quickly jumped up from the ground, used several psychic attacks in succession, spread out his psychic wings to let himself glide in the air, directly crossed the bottom of the castle, and flew to a high point on the upper level of the castle.
