Witcher: I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 58: Night Attack

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The main battlefield in the eastern part of the Helan Kingdom, Chapana Great Forest.

The military commander of the Shadow Tower, the King of the Helan Kingdom, Philip, was patrolling the camp.

“...The scouts will conduct a news report every 10 minutes. If there’s any deviation, immediately sound the alarm...”

“....Those on night duty, keep your spirits up. Campbell may ambush us at any time...”

“...Be careful, don’t let the ambush succeed...”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

Although he had received repeated assurances from the Knights, Philip still had a bad premonition.

Ever since they entered Chapana Forest, the main force led by Campbell had disappeared without a trace. After searching for many days, they found nothing. It was unknown what methods Campbell used. Even the magic of the Wizards was ineffective.

Under the urgent request of the two Wizards, he had to split up his forces to carry out a search, which made him feel very insecure.

‘I hope I’m overthinking things...’

Dang dang dang dang!

Just as he thought of this, the sound of an alarm suddenly sounded outside the tent.

Philip hurriedly opened the curtain and walked outside.

“Fire! Put out the fire!”

“Kill! Kill! Kill!”

Outside, the flames soared into the sky, and the shouts of killing could be heard in all directions.

An army had unknowingly barged into the camp. They were brandishing their crossguard swords and killing in all directions. The flames that soared into the sky lit up the entire night.

Philip’s face sank.

...

Twilight Fortress, outside the city.

At the same time, the same scene was playing out in Twilight Fortress. The only difference was that both the offensive and defensive sides had swapped places.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The awkward alarm bell suddenly sounded.

Count Gunner, who had been awakened from his sleep, put on a coat and grabbed a crossguard sword before rushing out of the tent.

“Kill! Kill! Kill!”

“Kill all the Rykers!”

Outside, the sounds of killing rang out in all directions. Flames soared into the sky, and the entire camp was in chaos.

Count Gunner’s face darkened.

Right at this moment, a black-haired soldier ran towards him.

Count Gunner asked hurriedly, “What happened?”

The soldier answered in panic, “Sir, we’ve been attacked!”

“Attacked?”

Count Gunner felt incredulous. By whom? Was it that defeated soldiers from Twilight Fortress? How could they have the courage and strength to defend the fortress when they could not even defend it?

He simply knew that now was not the time to dwell on this matter.

He immediately made a decision. “Come in and help me put on my armor.”

The two squires who were supposed to be guarding the entrance of the camp had disappeared.

The soldier said, “Yes.”

Count Gunner immediately turned around and walked into the tent.

However, before he took two steps, he suddenly felt an extremely strong sense of danger coming from behind.

All the hair on Count Gunner’s body suddenly stood on end. As a high-level Knight, his physical fitness made him roll forward reflexively.

Clang!

A loud and clear sound of a sword rang out.

The sharp blade almost grazed past his head and pierced through the air. The sword aura that was stirred up even caused his skin to hurt.

Count Gunner broke out in a cold sweat. He retreated several meters in a row and hurriedly raised his cross sword. “Helan!”

At this moment, he suddenly remembered that there were no black-haired soldiers in his team.

Heath did not say a word. He raised his hand and threw a fireball at Count Gunner.

“Wizard!”

Count Gunner’s expression suddenly changed.

He hurriedly dodged to the side, but at this moment, an invisible force suddenly swept over and firmly held him like an invisible hand.

Count Gunner was greatly shocked and hurriedly used all his strength to try to break free from this force.

But at this moment, Heath suddenly shouted, “Shine!”

With his voice, the cross sword in his hand suddenly burst out with an extremely dazzling light.

Facing this light, Count Gunner only felt a pain in his eyes.

Although it happened suddenly, the instinct of a senior Knight still made him endure the pain in his eyes and try his best to break free from the power in front of him.

The fireball grazed past his face once again. Count Gunner only felt a burst of pain on his face and lost consciousness. His face was swept by the fireball, and half of his face was torn apart. The flesh and blood flying around were extremely terrifying.

Without thinking too much, Count Gunner quickly retreated with his eyes closed. He only wanted to retreat from the tent and call for the guards.

But at this moment...

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of a cold wind breaking could be heard.

Heath, who was chasing after him, suddenly sped up at an incredible speed and appeared in front of Count Gunner in an instant.

“Spell: Gale.”

This sudden burst of speed caught Count Gunner off guard.

He only felt a pain in his chest.

When he opened his eyes with difficulty, what he saw was a cross-shaped sword inserted into his heart and lungs.

Count Gunner widened his eyes. “You...”

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of rushing wind rang out again.

Count Gunner only felt a chill on his neck, and then he felt the world spinning.

The last thing he saw was...

The black-haired soldier was using a white handkerchief to wipe the bloodstains on the cross-shaped sword...

Thump!

With a soft sound, Count Gunner’s head rolled to the ground, and then his headless body fell forward with a plop.

“He’s finally dead!”

Seeing the fallen body, Heath let out a long sigh of relief. It had to be said that the enemy commander had some strength. He had used so many spells to be ambushed by him, yet he could still resist for so long.

If it was a head-on battle, it would not be easy to kill him.

Then, Heath squatted down and pressed a hand on the Count’s chest, chanting in his heart: ‘Extract.’

[Beep, successful extraction. Knight Talent +1]

[Beep, successful extraction. Strength +0.02]

[Beep, successful extraction. Obtained ‘Blood Cross Sword Technique’.]

[Beep, successful extraction. Obtained ‘Blood Battle Qi’.]

At this point, Heath’s Knight talent had reached 9 points, which meant that he had the highest Knight talent, achieving the goal he had set for himself before joining the battle.

Along with the other gains he had obtained from the extraction, he had already made a huge profit.

It had to be said that this trip had been unbelievably smooth.

Although Heath had calculated before the sneak attack that there was a high probability that the enemy army would let down their guard, letting him succeed so easily was still out of his expectations.

He did not know where the enemy Knights had gone. There were only a few Apprentice Knights leading a team to keep watch. These weak and inexperienced fools did not even realize that there was an invasion until the soldiers on the arrow tower were shot to death. Heath and his men easily rushed in.

“It’s not the time to be happy. There’s still that Wizard...”

Thinking of this, Heath put away the slack in his heart and his heart tensed up again.

This world was a magical world. The outcome of the war was always determined by magic. As long as the enemy’s high-level Apprentice was still there, there was a possibility of turning the tide.

With this in mind, Heath quickly left the tent to look for the enemy’s Apprentice Wizard.

With the unique spiritual connection between spell casters, he easily found the enemy’s high-level Apprentice in a corner of the camp.

After arriving here, Heath could not help but be stunned by the scene in front of him.
