Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job properly

Chapter 122 Ambition and Co-optation

After listening to Wayne's speech, Francesca picked up a cup of Baihua Brew, which is unique to the elves, took a sip, thought for more than ten seconds, and said:

"What you said is very good. We cannot place our hope on the kindness of our enemies. Our people live under human surveillance, like lambs to be slaughtered, and will face their butcher's knives at any time."

Having said this, the sorceress raised her head and looked into Wayne's eyes, a trace of sadness appeared on her beautiful face, and her voice became much deeper.

"What a pity, Wayne, it is very difficult to change the status quo. The top human beings do not have a contemptuous or indifferent attitude towards non-human races as you imagine."

"Including you demon hunters, they are very smart, very clear-headed, and know very well who their enemies are. Whether they are non-human races or demon hunters, the reason why they are in such a harsh social environment is all because of their intention. For that.”

"And once we make a big move, they will immediately discover it and trigger their counterattack. Do you think there have been too many inhumane genocide incidents under human rule in the past thousands of years?"

The sorceress's eyes became a little confused and she said softly:

"It's not that we don't want to change or make the situation of the elves better, it's just that we don't dare to act rashly."

"But if no changes are made, the situation will only get worse. In the final analysis, our elves are still too weak."

"Thousands of years ago, our war with humans was a complete failure. Now that thousands of years have passed, the strength of humans has expanded several times. Today, it is even more impossible for us to defeat them on the frontal battlefield."

Wayne was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that the leader of the elves who took refuge in the Kingdom of Nilfgaard in the original book and then was used and thrown away like a chamber pot could actually see things so clearly. This made him not. Thought-of.

He pondered for a few seconds and decided to give some information, because indeed, as Francesca said, the situation of the demon hunters is the same as that of the non-human races. Helping them is also helping the demon hunters themselves.

So he opened his mouth and said:

"Ms. Francesca, I wonder if you have heard of Islin's prophecy. Do you believe this prophecy?"

As a powerful sorceress, Francesca is of course very clear about this prophecy from the elf prophet. In fact, they are far more aware of the truth about the "White Frost Doomsday" mentioned in the prophecy than anyone else in the world. All clear.

She nodded slightly, with nothing unusual in her expression, and said calmly:

"Of course I have heard of this prophecy. This elf prophet named Islin was once my father's friend."

“For this prophecy, the common people at the bottom do not believe it, or even don’t know it at all, but the middle and high-level human beings, all the spell casters, and the leaders of various races have corresponding interpretations of this prophecy. "

"Many of the things mentioned in the prophecy have been confirmed in reality. Of course, I also believe in the warnings given to us by this elf prophet."

Wayne nodded, glanced at Toluvel who was sitting next to the two of them drinking and thinking, then looked at Francesca again and said:

"Actually, I also believe this prophecy."

"The time of sword and ax is near, the age of wolves and snow. The time of frost and white light is coming, the age of madness and contempt: the age of the end. The world will die in the frost and be born anew. The sun rises again. That is when the seed sown by Hen Ichaer, the Blood of the Ancients, rises again. This seed will not sprout, but it will burst into flames."

"You all shall wail, for the destroyer of nations is coming. Your lands shall be trampled and divided. Your cities shall burn, and their inhabitants shall flee. Bats, owls, and crows shall haunt your homes, Snakes and worms will also make their nests in it.”

After he finished reading the fable softly, he sighed and said:

"In the prophecy, wars, natural disasters, plagues and killings will soon come to this world again."

"Look at the current situation in the northern countries, the south, and even other continents."

"Actually, this prediction is not unreasonable. Human beings are a selfish and exclusive race."

"They have taken a dominant position in this world. No other race can be their enemy. Their only enemy is humans themselves."

"So next, they will have civil strife because they have no external enemies, and they will start wars because they compete for power and interests."

"And when war sweeps across the entire human race, across the entire continent, and when they kill each other and fight fiercely, it will be the opportunity that other non-human races have been waiting for."

"This time will not be too long, maybe ten years, maybe twenty years. When the legendary ancient blood appears again, it will mean that the era described in the prophecy has arrived."

"Before that, whether they were demon hunters, dwarves, or elves, all the rare races that could only struggle to survive under the oppression of humans, all they had to do was to unite together, accumulate strength, and wait for an opportunity. .”

"And this opportunity is not far away from us."

………………

After a dinner, Wayne and Toruviel said goodbye to Francesca and returned to the elven ruins of Kaedwen.

As they said at the beginning, this was just an ordinary dinner and ordinary conversation. The two just chatted about their own ideas, understood each other's attitude, and quickly ended the contact.

Just like making a new friend, until both parties have enough trust, they will not really reveal their trump cards and true thoughts to the other party.

However, as one of the most powerful sorceresses in the world, the beautiful Mademoiselle Francesca, she was very generous.

Facing the poor demon hunter Wayne, the elf lady not only gave him two pieces of precious magic inner armor from the elves' treasury as an additional reward for cleaning up the ruins, but also promised that if he needed magic in the future, If you have any difficulties, the lady will also provide help as appropriate.

Although the two parties have not stated it explicitly, they have secretly reached a subtle cooperative relationship. In some emergency situations, they have one more partner to cooperate with.

Wayne is quite satisfied with this. In a sense, the sorceress Francesca, who is also an elf, is more trustworthy than Keira, who has had a close relationship with him.

Because both parties have a common dilemma and a common goal, and Keira, as a human warlock, will naturally think about the interests of the human race, which cannot be controlled by the so-called lover relationship that can be easily abandoned.

It's just that now, whether in terms of individual strength or personal power, he is unable to reach an equal partnership with Ms. Francesca, who has almost all the resources of the elves, so many plans cannot be implemented.

However, Wayne is not in a hurry. It is now 1250, and it is only the second year since he became a demon hunter. Before the real chaos breaks out, he has almost more than ten years to develop his own strength and power.

For a demon hunter who is very powerful and also has the help of the system, this kind of time is enough.

According to the development of the plot, next year, the great daughter of destiny, Shiri, should be born, and he can also successfully see the man who can stir up the northern and southern countries in the future and launch a war that sweeps the entire continent. The dancing Emhyr.

After returning to the ruins, Wayne didn't show any pretense and went directly into the female elf's room. When he and the female elf were rubbing their ears and temples in the bathtub and intertwined, he suddenly thought of something and asked:

"Toruvel, I heard that elves are good at archery. Do you know the master who makes bows and arrows?"

Toluvel was a little confused and fascinated, but when she suddenly heard Wayne's question, she raised her head and looked at the demon hunter angrily, then bit her head at his throat, and then said:

"Do you want to make a bow and arrow? The bow and arrow I gave you should already be a top-grade bow and arrow."

Wayne grinned, hugged Toluvel's slender waist, and brought the two of them closer together before saying:

"You should be aware of my arm strength. That bow and arrow can no longer exert my strength. I happen to still have a green dragon's dragon tendon in my bag. I may be able to use it to make some bows and arrows with stronger pulling power."

"There is also green dragon leather. I don't know your figure, so I can't make a set of dragon skin armor for you."

"If you know a skilled craftsman, I can give you some dragon skin and let you make it yourself. Of course, you will also have your share of bows and arrows."

When Toluvel heard this, he couldn't help but smile. The dragon skin armor and the bows and arrows made of dragon tendons were all very precious and rare equipment.

After all, now that dragons are extremely rare, a so-called dragon slaying event only occurs every few decades, and most of the targets are fake dragons. Real dragon equipment is extremely rare.

The female elf reached out and kissed Wayne on the lips, and said with a hint of sweetness in her tone:

"Okay, leave this matter to me. There are some master craftsmen in Baihua Valley. They inherit the exquisite skills of the Elf Kingdom. I will ask them to help you make it."
