Chapter 297
Chapter 370 Want to play a game of Gwent?
"Drug? Is that how you two brought Ciri back?"
Looking at Ciri who was still sleeping on the bed, and then looking at Sasha and Lucy standing in front of him, Lin Qiao, who was still in the transformed state, was a little confused.
How much drug did these two people give to make this unlucky child sleep so soundly?
"So... Qiao knows her? She's not the person you're looking for?"
Lin Qiao's words made the two of them a little confused. Looking at this posture, is she an acquaintance?
After all, the two of them didn't introduce Ciri to Lin Qiao... Could it be that they really got the wrong person?
However, Lin Qiao shook her head: "It can't be said that they know each other, I can only say that I know there is such a person unilaterally..."
And compared to Ciri, Lin Qiao is more familiar with her adoptive father Geralt.
He didn't jump to any of the key animations in The Witcher 3 at the beginning.
"And you two, don't act on your own next time! If it's really the person who is hostile to me, you two would have been defeated long ago with your strength!"
This is the key point!
In response, Sasha stuck out her tongue, then pulled Lucy close to him, trying to get away with it.
Successfully.
Lin Qiao sighed, and then set her sights on the girl who was snoring faintly.
"—— Ancient blood."
"What is that?"
"A kind of extremely powerful magical power inherited through blood."
At this point, Lin Qiao now roughly understood what his BYD opponent was looking for.
It has its own time and space magic, can cross the barriers between worlds, and even the terrible blood power of time.
And the girl with such power - Ciri, is also being hunted by the Ain El elves... and now there is another vampire.
Frankly speaking, this is not something that can be bought with just over 10,000 reward points.
Even if you get such power, you can completely ignore the system and play by yourself.
If Lin Qiao was the vampire on the opposite side, he would definitely make the same choice - suck the blood of the girl in front of him dry on the spot and merge it into the dead river.
There is no way, the vampire in Hell Song is too convenient.
"But how did that guy know that Ciri would appear in Night City?"
Lin Qiao suddenly thought of this question.
Sasha and Lucy did not disturb him when they saw this, they knew that this was a sign of the other party thinking about things.
Although it is not difficult for Lin Qiao, who has become a non-human, to think in multiple lines, generally speaking, it is still a bit bad to disturb the other party.
After about a few minutes, Lin Qiao had a rough guess.
"Precognition, or the ability to predict good and bad luck?"
This may be the most likely answer except for the system.
And it just happens to explain why he couldn't find the other party's location in the past few years.
With this kind of ability, if he really wants to hide, unless he absorbs the entire earth, he may not be able to find it.
But according to his speculation, this predictive ability should not be too strong, at least not the kind that can understand everything by counting with fingers.
Otherwise, he would not send people to Night City to inquire about the situation.
"What should we do now? Erase her memory and let her go?"
"No..."
Lucy and the others did find the wrong person, but in a sense, they helped him a lot.
It would be a lie to say that the power of the ancient blood is not tempting.
And the food is already in my mouth, it would be too unfair not to eat it.
"Sasha, tell the people in the biological research institute to prepare the laboratory I need within ten minutes, and set the confidentiality level to the highest."
"And Lucy, say hello to Abernathy, and focus on the intelligence inside Night City from today, and spread the news of the previous delivery of the Chimera Box, but the content is a little vague."
"That vampire will definitely come."
The hand clenched, and the medical emergency gun appeared in his hand.
That being said, he did not intend to do anything too extreme to Ciri - just draw blood for a sample.
He could not directly use the powerful power of the ancient blood like that vampire, but Lin Qiao would be more or less unwilling to let the other party go.
As for using genetic factors to forcibly control, it is not impossible.
But he was afraid that he would be attacked by the power of the ancient blood...
He didn't understand magic, this unscientific idealistic thing, so he decided to take a safe approach.
Magic has its own methods, and science has its own methods.
...
Although the way she fell asleep was not very good, Ciri still had a good sleep.
No way!
She felt inexplicably uncomfortable all over!
It was just like being wrapped in a spider web by a big crab that could weave a web, and then being swung in its claws.
But in her dream, she seemed to see something different...
It was the city under her feet.
But for some reason, the streets were extremely deserted, without any signs of the past prosperity.
And then an extremely dazzling, almost blinding flash suddenly lit up somewhere in the city, engulfing everything...
"!"
Ciri opened her eyes, and the nightmare-like scene made her jump up from the bed suddenly.
Just like a drowning person being rescued, she took a few deep breaths.
But just when she was about to recall it, she found that she seemed to have almost forgotten it.
"By the way, where am I?"
Looking around, although I'm not very clear about the style of the houses in this world, this one should be a good type... right?
At least it looks quite spacious and comfortable.
At this moment, the clothes she originally wore in the shape of a female swordsman were washed and placed on the bedside, and she was replaced by a plain long skirt (pajamas).
She smelled fragrant.
It seemed that someone had bathed her while she was unconscious.
Recalling the scene she saw before she fell into a coma, Sasha and Lucy smiled, and Ciri's face turned black.
She was deceived!
Just as Ciri changed her clothes, picked up the long sword and dagger on the bedside, and went to take revenge, the reflection in the mirror beside her made her stunned for a moment.
The scar on her face seemed to disappear.
No, not only on her face.
After checking, it was found that the scar left by Leo Bonnet's torture had also completely disappeared.
"Incredible..."
After comparing in the mirror for a long time, Ciri sighed.
She put the scabbard of the long sword on her back, and then tiptoed out of the door...
Just as she walked downstairs, she saw Lin Qiao who had been waiting in the living room for a long time, and Sasha and Lucy who had knocked her out.
"Hello, Ciri, or Cirila?"
The man in front of her was very familiar with her.
With a stern look, Ciri made such a judgment.
"Who are you? What do you want to do to me?"
Holding the long sword with more force, she shouted sternly.
But Lin Qiao, who was sitting on the main seat on the sofa, waved her hand indifferently: "Don't be nervous, Ciri, this is a misunderstanding...If we want to do something, we won't return your weapon to you, right?"
"Tsk, I don't think it's a misunderstanding."
Although this statement has a certain degree of credibility, Ciri, who had just been fooled once, is not so easy to let down her guard.
Besides, she was knocked unconscious and moved home, how could there be any misunderstanding?
"Okay, then I'll put it another way. I want to make a deal with you."
"Deal?"
"Of course, but before we talk in detail--"
Lin Qiao stopped talking halfway, and while Ciri's muscles were tense and she was alert, she took out a stack of cards from her pocket.
"How about we play a thrilling game of Gwent first?"
"?"
"?"
"!"
Not to mention Ciri, even Sasha and Lucy were a little confused when they saw Lin Qiao taking out a stack of Gwent cards.
Is this the time to play cards?
But unlike the two of them, Ciri felt unhappy from the bottom of her heart when she saw Lin Qiao's confident look.
The glory of the Wolf School Demon Hunters will be defended by me!
He straightened his chest and took out the card deck that he had collected with great difficulty since Kaer Morhen from his leather pocket.
"Hmph, let's get started. I will make you suffer the most shameful defeat in your life today!"
Sasha and Lucy felt even more numb when they saw this scene.
So why did you agree! ?

“…How is it possible…How is it possible…”
Ciri looked at the score panel on the holographic projection with a sluggish look, and the cards she held trembled slightly.
After a long time, the sky had darkened, and the score had reached 33:0.
Sasha next to her gave her an encouraging look.
After reluctantly playing the last card in her hand, the score between the two sides changed again.
Obviously, the person who won 34 games was not the young lion of Cintra.
It’s better to say that she has lost all afternoon.
‘Lost! All lost! ’
While Lucy was cleaning up the game, she hugged her head in a bit of collapse.
At this moment, the long sword and dagger on her back, including the few gold and silver coins on her body, have been transferred to Lin Qiao.
The reason?
Didn’t I say that I lost everything?
