Bairis walked cautiously along the winding path in the woods.
The black forest has never been friendly to outsiders.
Dark and humid, completely unable to receive the sun's light, the woodland left far more snow than the outside world, buckskin boots crunching, unpleasant.
It's winter, but all kinds of birds and insects in the forest still keep on, which adds a sense of strangeness to the forest.
There are even rumors that there will be black lobas in the black forest, which will destroy the mark, disturb the direction, and make the travelers lost in the forest forever.
Of course, of all the rumors about black forest, the most famous one is that one.
The Witch of the black forest.
The legend of witches has been around for hundreds of years, and it has never been broken. There are still people who claim to have met the legendary witch in the black forest.
The purpose of bairis's visit is to visit the witch.
Unlike most witches who are eccentric and perverse, the witches in the black forest are the more talkative of witches.
It is said that people who lost their way in the black forest were sent out safely. This shows that the other party is at least the type of communication.
If we can communicate, we should be able to do some business with them.
Bairis is not a civilian. In fact, one day ago, he was the prince of the kingdom of luzhang and the first heir to the original throne.
But it was his uncle, his father's brother, who was sitting on that throne, because his father, the beloved luzhang Ting VII, died yesterday.
Although it was said that he was suddenly infected with a serious illness and died, he was actually assassinated, but the murderer has not heard any news so far.
No, it should be said, "there is no news on the surface.".
According to common sense, after his father was killed, the kingdom of luzhang would fall into chaos because of the lack of leaders, and finally it would be re integrated and stabilized.
But for some reason, when his father was assassinated, when bairis got the news that he was going to enter the palace to stir up the beam, he found that the unexpected chaos did not happen. His uncle had already been elected by the ministers to become the king's agent and stabilized the situation. As long as the King's Council gave permission, his uncle could immediately take off the name of the agent and become Lu The eighth king of zhanting!
Even the old mage would be rebuked for his father's incompetence.
The royal family is very clear that those worshiping mages to a certain extent represent the views and attitudes of Qiyao mage Association on something, so it is almost certain that even the Qiyao mage association is no longer reliable.
Even the only strong man on his side, the head of the order of the kingdom of Lu zhanting and the black rose witch Rose Rose, is now under house arrest in disguise.
All the so-called "coincidences" add up to make bairis have enough reasons to believe that his father's death was not an accident, but a prepared usurpation!
Because of some taboos, the pure white church will hardly participate in the secular political struggle. It is almost impossible to rely on them as one of the three major forces to fight for their rights and reveal the truth. The king's Council is now very perfunctory and seems to have made up its mind to stand aside.
Since even the magician can't rely on it, we can only find another way to find the power to help out of everyone's vision.
For example, witches.
It is meaningless to mourn for not seeing a corpse. In addition, the longer the delay is, the more favorable it will be for his uncle's stable rule.
In addition, there was no one to trust, so bairis simply ran out in the name of hunting to distract himself. After shaking off those who might have been watching him, he entered the black forest where witches lived.
Although there are some troublesome demons in the black forest, first of all, the cold winter change has just passed, and many of them are still in hibernation. Secondly, bairis not only has the strength of the second turn demon swordsman, but also has the rare Rune sword "early winter". The demons with the level below two digits have no threat to him, even if they are more than two digits It's not without the power of the first World War
While bairis was still thinking about what to say first when he saw the witch, his vision of all kinds of dwarf fir trees suddenly opened up.
A strange looking house appeared in front of him.
The house is similar to a western style house with red tiles and white walls and ivy. However, there are several prominent rooms on the second floor, which gives people a sense of skewness.
From the outside, there are many windows in the house, but they are all covered by heavy curtains, so you can't see what it looks like inside.
Although there is no evidence, the atmosphere emanating from the house makes people feel that "this is the witch's residence".Barry spits and plucks up his courage to come to the door.
Just as he was about to knock on the front steps, the vermilion wooden door opened itself.
Do you mean to invite him in knowing that he is here?
Bairis calmed down and calmed down some of his flustered mood. After all, he was once a prince. His mind and determination were better than those of ordinary people, so he soon calmed down and walked into the dark house.
It is clear that there are no trees around the house, and the light of the two suns in the sky is also very bright, but the light seems to be completely swallowed up as soon as it enters the porch, leaving only the dark corridor.
Naturally, bairis does not have the ability of dark vision. Walking in the dark and strange corridor, he is naturally nervous. He always feels as if he is walking in the mouth of a giant beast, and every step is leading him to the abyss of terror.
Fortunately, the corridor was not long, and soon he came to the bottom of the corridor.
There was another wooden door. The door was not locked. He just pushed the door gently and opened it with a squeak.
"Welcome, lost traveler."
A young, over the top female voice came from the door.
It was then that bairis could see what was going on inside.
There should be a small room behind the door. There is a huge table in the middle of the room. There is a crystal ball on the table. At this time, the crystal ball is emitting faint blue light, which is also the only light source in the room.
In the dim light, bairis could see many bookshelves around the room, but there were many other things on the shelves besides books.
For example, the crystal skull, the black stone with strange patterns, the metatarsal bones of some kind of demon, the black cat that is coveting him, candy Wait, candy?
I must be wrong.
Bairis managed to stabilize his mind, forcing himself to shift his attention from the cheap candy that could be bought with a few coppers at the fair to the back of the wooden table.
The man in wizard's robe and pointed Wizard Hat there should be the target of his trip, the Witch of the black forest.
But the witch's stature is unexpectedly petite, perhaps not as big as her own sister.
What makes bairis care more is that there is another figure behind the witch.
Although the other side is hidden in the shadow, only a rough outline is revealed, but it is barely able to identify a man.
Is it the witch's calling creature?
Something about the witch flashed through his mind, and he decided not to care about it.
"Dear witch, I hope I can get your help."
Since the witch uses "welcome" as the opening word, it means that the other party should not be hostile to her for the time being.
It's a good signal.
Said bairis.
"To be able to cross my border shows that you have a desire to complete Say what you want, and then give your chips. I will decide whether to sign a contract with you to fulfill your wish depending on whether it is equivalent or not. "
The witch didn't talk to him It's better to say that, like the legendary witch, she is an extraordinary and cheerful person.
With a slight cough, he began to tell his story
