And through his deliberate inquiries, he soon obtained some interesting information from these manor owners, nobles, businessmen and celebrities.

First of all, the Duke's two daughters, Anna Henrietta and Silvia Anna, are almost adults and still live in the royal palace in Beauclair and are not yet married.

However, because of the Black Sun Curse, the current noble class generally has a disgust and even fear attitude towards Sianna, and does not support the Duke's eldest daughter to inherit the rights of the lord.

What's worse is that Sianna's parents, the current Duke and Duchess of Beauclair, believe in the Black Sun Curse more than anyone else and are staunch supporters of this prophecy. They believe that Sianna, who is cursed by the Black Sun, will bring disaster to the entire kingdom.

There were even rumors in the palace that after Sienna came of age, she would be expelled and exiled by the Duke, and the title would be inherited by the Duke's youngest daughter, Anna Henrietta.

Anyone who has played The Witcher 3 knows this plot well. The final result is that Sienna was expelled and tortured during the expulsion process. She joined a gang of thieves and returned to Toussaint twenty years later. She used high-level vampires to seek revenge and tried to use the thieves' gang to stir up chaos.

Here we have to talk about the Curse of the Black Sun, which is also known as the Dark Sun Curse or the Curse of the Black Sun. The Black Sun refers to the solar eclipse, which is a prophecy made by the wizard Etibald that predicts that human civilization will eventually be destroyed by sixty girls born during or after a specific solar eclipse.

This seemingly joking prophecy from a wizard led to dozens of girls from wealthy and even aristocratic families being killed or imprisoned in towers because people believed that they were haunted by demons, cursed, or tainted by the Black Sun.

Among them are several very famous characters, such as Sienna, Princess Renfro, with whom Geralt had a brief romance, and Deidre Admaine, the destined daughter of Eskel.

These daughters of noble families were all hated and tortured by their parents and the people around them because they were cursed with the Black Sun since childhood, resulting in a very miserable fate.

The second piece of news was that an estate owner who owned a large vineyard outside of Beauclair told Wayne an interesting piece of news. Yesterday evening, a barrel washer in his estate saw a gray-green dragon flying in the sky while washing barrels by the river. It flew into the Caroberta Forest.

The huge beast flying in the sky scared the barrel washer so much that he fell into the river and even lost two oak barrels. Some people thought he was lying, while others said they had seen it too.

The owner of the manor had told many people about this matter as a topic of conversation, and Wayne also heard this information by chance.

This made him think of the demon hunter that Francesca mentioned, who was chasing a giant pterodactyl.

After receiving the news, he immediately rode a newly bought horse and headed to the Caroberta Forest that the manor owner had told him about.

After entering the forest, he quickly hid the newly bought horse in a cave. After killing some evil spirits in the cave, he did not forget to spread some dragon dung at the entrance of the cave to drive away possible wild beasts.

Fortunately, his animal taming ability was very useful. Even the newly purchased mount was very obedient and had a natural affinity for him. If the cave was not inhabited by evil spirits instead of animals like bears and wolves, perhaps he could have persuaded the horse to get along with them in a friendly manner.

After placing the mount worth two hundred crowns, Wayne immediately put on the magic flying carpet and flew to the heights of the Carobta Forest.

Similar to the habits of most flying monsters such as griffins and dragons, pterosaurs also like to live at high altitudes. After all, they are very large in size, and if they live in places with crowded trees, it will affect their landing and take-off, which is very inconvenient.

Unfortunately, the Carobta Forest was too large. Wayne flew over the forest for half an hour and even used animal language to ask some birds he met on the way, but he still couldn't find any trace of the pterosaur.

But unexpectedly, I got some unexpected information from the mouth of a sika deer.

The little deer told Wayne that next to the small pond where it had just drunk water, there was a very beautiful blue-purple ball of light floating in the air.

And around this ball of light, there are many beautiful flowers and plants growing.

After getting the news, Wayne was immediately excited. He drove the magic carpet and quickly flew towards the small pond mentioned by the deer.

Sure enough, not long after, he also discovered this beautiful place, and above the pond was a magic node that was flashing magical light.

This is a brand new magic node, which is not recorded in the Warlock Brotherhood. In other words, most of the magic nodes in the Southern Kingdom are not recorded in the Warlock Brotherhood.

Faced with such an unexpected surprise, Wayne certainly had no reason to refuse. He immediately came to the magic node and began to absorb the magic power inside.

Ding! Detected magic node, do you want to absorb it? Ding! Magic absorption has been completed, and 3 ability points have been obtained. The current total number of ability points is 6 points.

This time, when Wayne sensed the world on the other side of the crack through the newly formed crack, he found that it was a world with very scarce magic power. The magic content in the breath revealed was very small, almost only one-tenth of that in the wizarding world.

Moreover, this magic power was quite neutral, with neither evil nor light aura, and its activity was also very low, which made Wayne feel relieved.

Based on the quality of this magic power, Wayne was able to judge that the other side should be a world with relatively low magic, without any overly powerful enemies, and had a very high exploration value.

However, he is currently busy looking for the demon hunter who is hunting the pterodactyl and has no time to explore this world.

So he just recorded the coordinates in his map, and then used a sealing array that he was not very familiar with to seal the space crack.

The Space Sealing Sigil can be said to be the first warlock spell he learned. If the technique is not good enough, he can make up for it with materials. Although his technique is still immature, when the quality of the spellcasting materials is good enough, he can make up for the technical deficiencies.

Perhaps it was good luck that comes in pairs. When Wayne dealt with the space crack and continued to search for the pterodactyl on the magic carpet, he was suddenly attracted by the sound of a bomb explosion.

After hearing the unique sound of the gunpowder explosion, his heart was filled with joy. In this era, there were not many people who could skillfully use bombs. Apart from some professional blasters who were needed for mining work, only demon hunters and alchemists had such abilities.

Immediately, without much hesitation, Wayne drove the flying carpet and flew quickly towards the direction where the explosion came from.

Sure enough, before he flew for long, he heard a huge roar of a wild beast. A huge beast with bronze scales all over its body, a huge lizard head, and a total length of nearly ten meters jumped out of the woods.

Its chest was probably hit by the alchemical bomb. Some scales had fallen off and blood was seeping out. The surrounding scales were covered with charred marks.

However, compared with its body size, this injury was not particularly serious. This beast seemed to be accustomed to being the king. Faced with its injury, it was very angry. It did not think about running away, but began to attack the ground.

Seeing this, Wayne immediately controlled the magic carpet and flew above where they were fighting. From above, he could clearly see the situation below.

Fighting against the giant pterodactyl were two demon hunters in black light armor. One was a very strong man with a bald head, a round face, and a scar on his face that looked murderous. The other was a short man with a slender figure and short black hair.

At this point the battle had only lasted less than four or five minutes, and the pterodactyl's wings had been chopped several times by the bald, round-faced witcher. Its flesh wings were broken and bleeding, making it lose the ability to fly. The short witcher, on the other hand, was quite agile, wielding his steel sword and using sneak attacks to attract the pterodactyl's attention and create opportunities for his companions to attack.

The two cooperated very well, and judging from the condition of their faces, they seemed to have drunk the witcher potion. All functions of their bodies were at their peak, and they had the upper hand in the battle with the pterosaur.

Seeing this, Wayne did not bother to interfere in their fight to avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings. He just controlled the magic carpet, suspended in the air, and waited quietly.

Soon, the battle between the demon hunters and the pterodactyl lasted for five minutes. The two demon hunters worked together to successfully consume most of the pterodactyl's physical strength, causing a lot of damage to its body, causing it to lose control of its body.

Finally, it was the strong demon hunter with a bald head and a round face who took advantage of a flaw, climbed onto the pterosaur's back, aimed at the back of its head, and launched a fatal blow.

After the dust settled, the sturdy, bald, round-faced demon hunter did not go to collect his spoils. Instead, he and his companions, holding steel swords in their hands, looked at Wayne standing on the magic flying carpet with a cautious expression, and said in a low voice: "My friend in the sky, who are you? Why are you waiting there?"

As he had guessed in advance that he would encounter a witcher, Wayne had already taken off his disguise and was now wearing green dragon leather armor. He had intentionally placed the badge of the Wolf School outside the armor, and his amber cat's eyes were very conspicuous. It was probably because of these features that the witchers on the ground called him a friend.

Hearing his question, Wayne showed a gentle smile on his face. He lowered the flying altitude of the magic carpet and let it land about seven or eight meters away from the two demon hunters. He said, "My two friends, I am Wayne, the demon hunter from the Wolf School."

"I heard that there were demon hunters tracking a giant pterodactyl, so I came here to look for you."

The bald, round-faced, strong demon hunter was startled when he heard this, and asked with a vigilant tone: "I am Leisuo from the Viper School."

"Wayne of the Wolf School, why are you looking for us?"
