The Executor of the Heavens: Beginning with the Watch Dogs

Spekruger Island is a countryside in the true sense. For Kelhan, it is remote and quiet, and usually no outsiders even come here.

So much so that when Xie Yuan, who had black hair and black eyes, got off the stranded sampan, he attracted frequent stares from local villagers.

However, Xie Yuan was wearing a piece of local-style armor that was tailor-made by the blacksmith of the palace of Keldro according to the Udvik heavy armor suit.

This is a very obvious local style of clothing, not the Nilfgaardian style of black clothes and black armor. In addition, this place is the center of Spikerug Island. There is a famous arena to the north of Svaleg, where local warriors will It was a test of one's own strength, so everyone watched curiously, but did not act too radically.

Xie Yuan didn't care about the stares from around him, and even returned a friendly look, and then walked straight to the longhouse on Udvik Island, which was the leader's residence.

The guards stationed in the longhouse stopped Xie Yuan, but they did not make things difficult after Xie Yuan made it clear. After all, in a sense, Xie Yuan was Clark's envoy.

However, one of the guards gave a kind reminder, be careful not to trip over things on the ground and fall, because the room was very... dark - because the lord preferred a dark environment.

When Xie Yuan came in, he had to be surprised by the fact that there were only a few subtle dim lights in the entire spacious long room.

Is Spikerug so poor? Or does the lord have any special hobbies?

All this was stopped when Xie Yuan was about to approach Udarek and his druid advisor Yorn.

The reason is that Yohn needs to interpret a dream for Lord Udaric.

Since the lord had something important to do, Xie Yuan could only do as the lord did and stood aside to wait.

However, after they finished their work, it didn't mean that Xie Yuan couldn't observe them. Just by looking at them, Xie Yuan found out that something was wrong.

Yonn is a druid, closer to the role of a witch doctor. He is a bit old, but his energy and condition are even stronger than the strong guard outside the door.

But in comparison, Udarek's situation was a bit wrong.

The physical condition is not bad, but I am a little deficient in energy and blood. It seems that I am often injured... Are you prone to self-mutilation? Or is it an injury from frequent battles?

But the severe mental weakness could be seen in Udarek's tired and suspicious eyes even if Xie Yuan looked at him casually.

Severely nerve-wracking? ! Xie Yuan looked at the monarch and his minister who had completed the dream interpretation process. An idea flashed in his mind, but there was no indication on his face.

Once again, Xie Yuan reiterated in his heart that this is not my world, and I can't put too much effort into changing things that I don't understand.

Udarek and Yon were a little impatient with Xie Yuan's arrival, and they were vague about Caris's whereabouts - they even complained about Caris's arrival and her interference in their affairs.

But Xie Yuan could also see that Udarik and Yon did not have any negative emotions towards Caris, they were just simply impatient.

So Xie Yuan did not continue to pester, but went out and directly used the multi-tool radar to scan the nearby biological information about Caris... Unexpectedly, the eldest lady's last biological information was found in a remote place on the mountain peak.

Without a trace of hesitation, Xie Yuan rushed towards that peak.

Along the winding mountain road, Xie Yuan arrived at his destination. This turned out to be a long house that had begun to run down... Wow, although this house seemed to Xie Yuan to be extremely crude, it was different compared to the houses of the people at the foot of the mountain. It's much more impressive, much better than Udarek's current house.

Then this must be Udarek's old house, considering that Udarek is a hereditary lord.

Xie Yuan has obtained the strongest collection of biological information, and Caris must be inside.

But as soon as he entered this old house, Xie Yuan felt uncomfortable all over, as if something invisible was constantly squeezing him, and the surrounding area became colder and colder... It was not as cold as the climate at all.

"Hmph!" But Xie Yuan was not afraid at all. Qi and blood circulated rapidly throughout his body, and the cold feeling disappeared, leaving only a weird squeezing feeling, but it had little effect.

This ancient house does qualify as a longhouse. As soon as Xie Yuan came in, he saw a very neatly built Western-style fireplace. Moreover, the fireplace was exquisitely built and interconnected internally and externally: it was used for heating and indoor barbecue on the outside, and for cooking on the inside. The cooking stove is practical and beautiful.

However, this is a dead object after all. Xie Yuan looked away after a brief analysis. At the same time, he also analyzed that there was a cellar entrance nearby, but the sliding panel doors of the cellar were locked, so there might not be anyone there.

At a corner, Xie Yuan found Keris collapsed on the ground and unconscious.

A scanner was used to look at her whole body. Fortunately, there were no external injuries, and it seemed that she was not knocked unconscious by a blow.

Xie Yuan remembered the cold feeling when he first came in, and the first priority was to get her out of this strange house, so he picked her up and took her out of the house quickly.

After taking her out of the house, Xie Yuan gently leaned the little girl against the relatively strong wooden railing, then took out a bottle of cooling oil from his pocket, unscrewed the cap, and shook it under Caris's nose. .

Soon the shrewd Skellige girl opened her eyes and covered her head in confusion: "What happened...where is this? Oh...my head hurts like crazy."

Then she raised her head and looked at the person in front of her in surprise: "Yuan...why are you here?"

"I came to find you," Xie Yuan explained simply, "Kratz is worried about you and I need to take you home."

But Caris shook her head stubbornly: "I won't leave until I can help Udarik..."

Immediately afterwards, the red-haired and freckled girl's expression became very urgent: "Sword! Where is that sword? I have to go back."

Looking at Caris who was about to stand up, Xie Yuan refused without even thinking: "You don't want to go anywhere. I just saw you half-dead in that house and passed out on the ground. I just took you out of there." Take it out."

The girl was a little stubborn: "I must..."

"You have to tell me what happened." Xie Yuan directly interrupted her willful request.

Then Caris could only stand up and told Xie Yuan a piece of Udarek's family history.

The sword Caris wants to get is called Brockvar, and it is Udarek's family inheritance sword. Years ago, when Udarek was a young man, he had a younger brother, Aki, and the two had a falling out over the sword.

The reason is that the old head of the family at the time, Udarek's father, gave the sword to Aki, and tradition should have given it to the eldest son Udarek. This kind of thing has always been a kind of humiliation for the eldest son from ancient times to the present, and the angry Udarak even broke the local sacred tradition: he questioned his father's decision.

The result was certainly not good. The old man was the king first, and the father second, so Udarik was ordered to be chained to a pillar and soaked in water from the waist down for three days.

After the punishment was over, he followed Aki to the sea... In short, the result was not good. Aki was trapped at the bottom of the sea forever, and Udarek has been questioned for killing his brother - although it may have been an accident.

Caris believes that Udarek's strange appearance is most likely the result of the evil spirit Aki. If the sword can be returned to him, maybe the resentment will be touched.

As for why she inferred this, the girl did have some unique opinions: "Since I can remember, the islanders have said that Udarek is God's chosen one, and that the gods can talk to him. I used to believe this too. , but looking at the situation now... I think he is haunted by a ghost, the ghost of his brother."

The reason is because of the scars on his body - Xie Yuan thought they were from the battle, but Caris told Xie Yuan that they were actually self-mutilation.

She also asked Udarek specifically, but it turned out that it was because he had a so-called "inner voice" that encouraged him to kill himself to please the gods.

Caris immediately suspected that this was not the so-called voice of God, but the lingering ghost of his brother, affecting him - the key point was that she also asked Yot to confirm that Udarek had indeed heard it after Aki's death. These are the voices of God.

Caris thought that if she could find the sword and return it to Aki, maybe this symptom could be relieved?

It would be nice if he really wanted to deal with the wronged soul. This was Xie Yuan's first thought. Whether it was the Taoist sect or the Shi family, he had plenty of means to deal with it.

However, people were drowned in the sea, so why was this haunted house the one that caused the commotion? And Xie Yuan didn't feel any resentment towards Udarik... Of course, it's also possible that Xie Yuan was temporarily transferred here when he went there.

Caris was not in a suitable state to get the sword, so Xie Yuan directly volunteered to go in, and then he also rejected the girl's idea of ​​going to see Udarik alone - her body and bones were so weak, she had to watch, otherwise something would happen to him His face was dull.

As soon as he entered the haunted house, Xie Yuan felt a strong sense of squeezing and coldness, and immediately began to move Qi and blood to resist it. It was not a big problem.

The cellar was locked, but Xie Yuan quickly found the key on the other side of the fireplace, on the shelf in the kitchen.

After getting the key, Xie Yuan came to the cellar door, opened the lock, and pulled the door up. He saw that the ground was not too high, so he jumped down.

After landing lightly, Xie Yuan looked around. It was dark, but there was faint movement, and the empty basement... This was actually a wide hall, and you could even hear the whistling wind.

Noticing a candlestick stand nearby, Xie Yuan walked over and lit the light source for the candlestick. It didn't matter. Suddenly, the hideous shadow of a monster appeared in front of him!

But Xie Yuan didn't make any aggressive moves, because this monster was of the ghost type, with malice but no resentment. It was not a ghost, but a monster.

Moreover, it didn't take action without seeing him. Even when it was completely dark, it was the best time to take action against him. Of course, it couldn't succeed in a sneak attack.

But this also illustrates one point: it cannot or cannot attack itself, but at the same time, it is estimated that it cannot attack it.

All Xie Yuan could do was to come near him and pick up the sword. The moment he grabbed the sword, Xie Yuan found that the monster immediately escaped into the darkness and disappeared.

But it doesn't fully show... this house is still very boring.

Xie Yuan, who had taken the sword, did not dare to delay. He immediately came to the cellar door and lifted his whole body to the ground with one hand.

After walking out of the haunted house, Xie Yuan said hello to Caris, and now Caris could go over to meet Udarik.

However, while walking, Caris was still a little curious and asked her feelings: "So what is your relationship with Geralt?"

"I have nothing to do with Geralt. We were strangers before this," Xie Yuan said helplessly. "I'm not even from this world, but I am Xili's swordsmanship teacher and boss. She invited me to come and play in this world. As a result, I came and she disappeared.”

Caris stopped suddenly, "You...you are an outsider?" A look of surprise appeared on her face, and then turned into disbelief, "This is not true, are you kidding me?"

Xie Yuan had no choice but to take out a PPK pistol with a silencer from his pocket and fired three shots directly at the stone next to him.

"Puff! Puff! Puff!" The bullet directly made three small craters in the hard stone wall.

"Please tell me, Miss Caris," Xie Yuan put away the gun and said to the wide-eyed Miss Kuite, "Can such a concealed and powerful weapon appear in this world without the blessing of magic? "

"...basically...impossible," after muttering his intuitive feelings, he was replaced by a rather excited expression.

"Stop!" Xie Yuan immediately stopped Caris's tendency to directly transform into a curious baby, "I can answer some of the questions you want to ask, and some I can't, but we'd better take care of Udarek's affairs first. ,Agree?"

Caris is worthy of being Kratz's daughter. She has already shown everyone's demeanor at a young age. She can really suppress her curiosity and continue to do business.

Even when it comes to gossip, you may really not be able to help it.

"Where is Geralt?" Caris stopped and asked abruptly as they approached the longhouse.

"This time period? Well..." Xie Yuan calculated the time, "I should have just arrived in Novigrad from Vizima (the capital of Tamriel), and I will be coming to Skellige soon."

"Yennefer actually lets him go around without any worries?" Karis teased.

"Hahaha, don't be too mean." Xie Yuan couldn't help but laugh. "Although the Black and White Killer Whale is a bit stronger, his dedication and affection for the White Wolf... is still worth letting him endure this discomfort."

Caris responded with a meaningful eye roll, "I really don't know whether you are complimenting or sarcastically speaking."

However, Xie Yuan also saw her back twitching when she turned around.

But then, when facing Udarek, the two of them quickly returned to normal, but Xie Yuan couldn't help but frown - the old boy was sitting at the door basking in the sun, but his hand was wrapped with a bandage...

Are you hurting yourself again? Xie Yuan was also convinced.
