This beautiful sorceress was indeed very capable. Even though she covered her appearance with a cloak, she was still able to quickly soothe the painful hearts of all the non-human survivors present with her sweet-sounding elven language.

In less than a few minutes, the dwarves and elves, who were originally in fear and struggle, quickly cheered up with the encouragement of the sorceress, and followed Francesca along a road leading to the forest outside the town.

Wayne stood quietly among the broken limbs and arms until all the survivors of the inhuman race had left the town center, then he took a step and followed.

Half an hour later, all the survivors of the non-human race disappeared into the forest under the leadership of Francesca.

Wayne guessed that they were all teleported to other safe places through the sorceress's portal. As for the remaining property and real estate, these were just small problems for the wealthy elven sorceress.

It was not until there was completely no movement in the forest that Francesca put on her beautiful and graceful purple-black dress and appeared in front of Wayne.

She first performed a graceful and ladylike courtesy to Wayne, and then said in a sincere tone:

"Thank you, Wayne. You helped me a lot. I will remember this favor. Please let me know when you need my help."

Wayne waved his hand and said, "Don't say that, Ms. Francesca. I think anyone with a sense of justice would do the same when seeing such evil deeds."

"Besides, I am also an elf, and doing this will make me feel better."

After hearing Wayne's answer, Francesca looked at Wayne with gentle eyes, and suddenly noticed the blood and filth all over his body. She frowned and said softly:

"No matter what, Wayne, I will keep this in mind. Being able to meet a brave fellow like you is the happiest thing that has happened to me recently."

"You are very dirty now, let me use magic to clean you up, okay?"

Hearing this, Wayne looked at the dirty blood and internal organs on his body and couldn't help but frowning. He was so excited about killing just now that he didn't notice it. But now, after being reminded by the sorceress, the demon hunter's sensitive sense of smell was immediately choked by the strong and fishy smell.

He nodded to Francesca, and the sorceress simply moved her fingers, and a clear stream of water appeared out of nowhere, wrapping around his body, as if someone was wiping it hard on him. The dirty blood and broken flesh stuck in the gaps of the armor were soon carried away by the stream of water.

Only after Wayne's armor was completely renewed and all the blood and flesh were cleaned up did Francesca take a few steps closer to Wayne. After carefully examining all the equipment on Wayne, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and said with a surprised smile:

"I am very surprised by your strength, Wayne, especially the magic equipment you are wearing. Each piece exudes a strong magical aura. I have never heard of these equipment before."

"I still remember that when I met you last year, you were still quite green. It seems that you have been through a lot in the past year."

Wayne looked directly into Francesca's charming eyes and beautiful face, and said casually, "We have indeed experienced many adventures and obtained many spoils, but this is the life of a demon hunter. We are always on the way to the next battlefield, and we never know in which battle we will die."

“Danger and battle always force us to grow quickly, because the losers are often already in the grave.”

"Well, beautiful lady, it's already late. If there's nothing else, please allow me to take my leave."

"Uh, wait a minute."

Seeing that Wayne wanted to leave, Francesca immediately stopped him. Facing the young demon hunter's puzzled look, the sorceress smiled apologetically and asked, "Wayne, Lord Toruvil mentioned to you that I want to invite you to carry out the commission?"

Wayne was stunned for a second when he heard this, and suddenly remembered that Toruveille did say this, but he wanted to deal with this matter after the new year. He was a little surprised when he saw the sorceress, so he forgot about it.

So, he was silent for a second or two, and then he looked at Francesca and said, "You should understand our principles, Ma'am. There are some tasks we don't accept, but you can tell me what the task is first, and then I'll answer you."

The sorceress bit her lower lip, revealing a pitiful expression, and said, "I have received news that King Henselt of Kaedwen is preparing to carry out a large-scale operation to expel non-human races in their capital, Banard, and even other cities."

"However, many people know that the wild boar is definitely going to do more than just expel people. He is an extreme racist. Maybe he wants to seize the wealth of those non-human races, or maybe he just wants to satisfy his perverted desire to kill."

"Although the Warlock Brotherhood has put pressure on Henselt several times and warned him clearly not to commit large-scale massacres."

"But this guy is a shameless bastard, and no one knows what he will do in the end."

Wayne couldn't help but frown when he heard this. It sounded like the sorceress wanted him to challenge the King of Kaedwen. Although he didn't mind doing so, and even didn't mind killing this stupid king, his identity as a witcher did not allow them to openly confront a king.

So, Wayne asked in a low voice: "So, ma'am, what kind of task do you want to entrust me with?"

As if she had heard the warning in Wayne's tone, a trace of sadness flashed across Francesca's clear eyes. She reached out and held Wayne's right hand, which was not wearing the glove, and said softly:

"I would like to give you a long-term commission, Wayne."

"Just like what happened today, as long as you can save any elves from the butcher knife of humans and bring them to a safe place, then inform me."

"You will receive a reward of ten crowns. Of course, if you encounter any difficulties, you can discuss this with me and I will give you the information I know."

"Please help me, Wayne. I just want more of my people to survive."

As Francesca's voice fell, the system's voice also sounded in Wayne's ears.

Ding! The special commission [Save the Elves] is triggered.

This task is a long-term commission. You can get one point for each elf rescued, and the host can end the task at any time.

Every ten points can be exchanged for an ordinary treasure chest and three experience points, every one hundred points can be exchanged for an expert treasure chest and thirty experience points, every one thousand points can be exchanged for a master treasure chest and three hundred experience points, and every ten thousand points can be exchanged for an epic treasure chest and three thousand experience points.

These points can be redeemed at any time until the host completes the mission.

After listening to the introduction of this mission, Wayne chose to accept this mission without thinking. For him, the reward of this mission was too generous, it was like a gift from God, he would be in vain if he didn't do it.

Think about it, there are probably tens of thousands of elves in the entire northern countries now, maybe barely enough to make up a hundred thousand. If he could exchange all of these people for points, it would be equivalent to completing ten epic tasks, and thirty thousand experience points would be enough for him to obtain a large number of artifacts and upgrade to more than ten levels.

Unfortunately, the task assigned by the system was not to kill those evil people who massacred non-human races, but to rescue people, which was a more troublesome task. Otherwise, he might turn into a Shura evil ghost and kill tens or even hundreds of thousands of people.

What surprised him was that this beautiful elf warlock was too generous. Not to mention rescuing 100,000 elves, even if she rescued 10,000 elves, she would need to pay him 100,000 crowns. This was not a small amount of money. The kings of some small countries did not have so much money.

But it is also possible that Francesca did not understand his abilities, or did not have enough expectations, thinking that saving a few hundred people was his limit.

After accepting the mission, Wayne pretended to ponder for more than ten seconds, then nodded with a reluctant expression and said to Francesca:

"Ms. Francesca, I can accept this commission, but I will only do it secretly and will not reveal my current identity. I also don't want any bad news to leak out from you."

"Otherwise, we can no longer be friends and may even become enemies."

Facing the threat in Wayne's tone, Francesca didn't mind at all. Instead, she smiled brightly, revealing a beautiful smile, and said, "Great, Wayne, thank you for helping me. Keep the communicator in your hand. I will make a magical device that can achieve longer-distance communication as soon as possible. Then, we can communicate with each other and carry out this task better."

"And don't worry, I can see that you care a lot about your identity as a demon hunter. From now on, I will help you collect some intelligence that will be helpful to the demon hunter. If you need help from a warlock, you can also ask me for help."

………………

After the commission was completed, Wayne received a reward of thirty-five experience points and an expert-level treasure chest.

But the real gains were not these. Not to mention that he and the elf sorceress Francesca had some secrets with each other, they deepened their trust and reached a deeper cooperation.

Just that long-commissioned special mission was enough to make Wayne very excited.

Moreover, after leaving Kaermohen, he would try to see whether he had to save people himself to get the points, or whether he could get points by saving people in other ways.

If it is the latter, then the difficulty of this task will be greatly reduced, and it can even become his scoring task, allowing him to quickly improve his level and strength.

Thinking this way, after separating from Francesca, Wayne did not forget the purpose of his trip, but continued to drive the magic carpet and flew towards the location of the magic node in the coordinates.

Fortunately, there were no unexpected incidents on the way. After flying for about two hours, Wayne followed the instructions on the map and arrived at a valley 20 kilometers away from the city of Ban'ard.

When he arrived at the actual location, he discovered that the location of this magic node was actually in a pool under a waterfall.

If it weren't for this map, it would be really difficult for anyone to find this place, just like the space crack in the bear cave.

I really don’t know who discovered these magic nodes and cracks located in the corners.

After discovering the target, Wayne did not delay any longer and went straight to the shore below the waterfall. He took off his clothes and put his armor and other items into the space bracelet in his hand.

With the Hekna Amulet, he can dive for a long time and his swimming speed in the water is also enhanced.

It only took a few minutes to dive to the bottom of the pool under the waterfall and find the magic node at the bottom of the pool.

What surprised him was that, perhaps because of the abundant chaotic magic near the magic node, there was actually a group of water ghosts living at the bottom of the pool. When they discovered Wayne, the delicious prey, they swarmed over him like students at school at lunchtime.

Fortunately, Wayne's strength is no longer what it used to be. Even in the water, his Axis Seal is not restricted.

With his current abilities, it is no problem for him to control three or four water ghosts at the same time. In addition, he can take out the crossbow from the space bracelet at any time, so he quickly solved this group of underwater troubles.

When he dealt with the group of water ghosts and successfully approached the magic node that was faintly flashing with blue light, the voice of the system reached his ears as he wished.

Ding! The magic node has been touched. Do you want to absorb it?

After hearing this voice, Wayne hesitated for just a second or two before choosing to agree.

As he made his choice, with the help of the system's power, the huge magic power of this magic node was quickly absorbed into Wayne's body at a speed that even the caster could hardly imagine, as if it was sucked into a black hole. To be precise, it was sucked into his body by some unknown thing in his body.

In just less than two minutes, the magic node that was originally flashing with a faint fluorescence cracked into a visible gap. All the magic power that maintained this node was sucked away, and traces of energy from the other world slowly seeped in from the crack between the two worlds.

And perhaps because of the activation of magic conversion, a skill that can absorb energy from another world, Wayne has a keener and clearer sense of the energy from another world.

He could actually feel the power coming from the opposite world through this crack, and it felt vaguely familiar.

Ding! The magic node has been absorbed, and 3 ability points have been obtained. The current remaining ability points are: 4 points.

Ignoring the system's prompts, Wayne calmed his mind, abandoned unnecessary senses, and put all his energy into magical sensing, carefully feeling the magic coming from the crack opposite.

Well, the smell of evil is stronger than the smell of light, carrying with it the smell of death, sulfur, curses and corruption.

It seems that the world on the other side is not a very peaceful world. The power of evil has overwhelmed justice, and the world on the other side is in disaster.

After a few minutes, Wayne opened his eyes and took out a bottle of mana potion from his space bracelet thoughtfully. This was the potion from Diablo that he had taken out of an ordinary treasure chest. There were four bottles left in total.

He closed his eyes, poured the mana potion into his mouth, and then savored it carefully.

It also carries the scent of death, sulfur, corruption and curse, and is extremely similar to the scent coming from this space crack.

This made Wayne 80% sure that the world on the other side of the crack should be the world of Diablo. What he didn't know was how far the plot of the world on the other side had developed? And what place did this space crack connect to? But this time, he didn't have the courage to directly enter that doomsday-like world like he entered Middle-earth and Azeroth.

Moreover, after thinking about it for a while, he simply decided not to use his not-so-mature space crack sealing ritual to seal the crack.

Anyway, this crack is very small, insignificant. Even if the demons on the opposite side discovered this crack, it would take more than a few years to tear it apart enough for them to enter.

And according to Wayne's understanding, things like demons seem very powerful, but their restrictions are also extremely strict. When they are in the native plane where they were born, they may have unlimited power and do whatever they want.

But if you want to enter other worlds or other planes, you will be suppressed by the plane itself, and you will lose the support of your native plane and most of your power.

This is also one of the main reasons why many demons were destroyed by warriors after leaving their own planes.
