Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1394 1366. Be cautious

The set of tomes obtained from Felicia is alchemy books written by Herbert Stanmoreford.

This sorcerer is one of the first members of the Warlock Council of mankind and has made groundbreaking progress in the field of alchemy.

Although a technology should always become stronger and more perfect with the development of the times.

But because this is a world with extraordinary power, it is not only uncommon for gifted sorcerers to delve into the field alone to a level beyond the times, but also very reasonable.

So even now, the knowledge in this set of books is still considered profound.

This is also one of the few alchemy books that Lan En has not studied in the library of Aretusa.

Learn and expand biology in [Memory Dive] and his own practice of crossing the world, and learn alchemy in books.

These two are the pillars of Lan En's academic system.

And he is still constantly digging deeper to a higher level.

To be honest, even this set of "Stanmoreford, Supplement on Alchemy" is only a reference material for him, and it can't even be called "guiding significance".

He is just like every scholar who has studied to a high level in his own field, and is about to step into a realm that no one has ever reached.

There is no guidance and planning from the predecessors ahead, and it all depends on his own exploration.

After thanking Felicia again, Lan En waved his hand and walked out with Maria.

"Are you also doing human experiments here?" Maria asked in a cold and calm voice. "I saw a lot of organs in the laboratory just now."

In the corridor where the sorceress apprentices were busy, just as Lan En thought, Maria, wearing a hunter windbreaker of Yharnam and carrying a cold and noble aura of Cainhurst blood aristocracy, attracted the attention of many people with special interest.

However, in the past few days, she seems to have gotten used to it a lot.

"Does this make you feel uncomfortable?" Lan En looked down at Maria.

The old Yharnam research hall on gray blood disease and the patients she has been taking care of there are almost Maria's nightmares.

"No, I'm not that superficial."

The female hunter gently pressed her tricorn hat and shook her head.

"Although I have seen the true face of the Healing Church, the undeniable cruel reality is that the progress of medicine and life sciences depends on countless sacrifices. It's just that..."

"Sacrifice itself is noble, but it is still divided into active and passive, and the passive is divided into deserved, accidental and innocent."

"Only this point." Lan En smiled at Maria, "Don't you trust me?"

The blood noble of Yharnam raised the brim of his hat with two fingers elegantly, looked at the smile of the demon hunter, and lowered his head after a moment of silence, and let out a long breath.

"No, just think of it as... I am sensitive."

--

After a few days of processing, things in Aretuza have been almost done, and now is the day when Lan En and several other people have made an appointment to go to Gaoqiu Fort.

Maria and Adeline have completed a complete replacement of blood in their bodies through [Big Eater Vitality] in the past few days.

The replaced blood was collected and burned by [Battle Skill·Ember] under Lan En's supervision.

Yharnam is not a place that is too obsessed with food and wine. The experience of spending most of the time eating in the past few days has even made Adeline and Maria a little anorexic.

Fortunately, [Big Eater Vitality] has also greatly improved the conversion efficiency of food nutrients, otherwise they would probably start to hate toilets.

"We will meet outside the city."

Walking out of the main gate of the island of Thanedd where Aretuza is located, Lan En explained to the two ladies around him.

"Don't be afraid, Adeline. Berengar will lead you, and Gos Velen is really small and not complicated compared to Yharnam."

"It's difficult for you to get lost even if you want to. Cardo Street is connected to the city gate in a straight line."

Qilin's figure is still too eye-catching after all. Although Lan En can use this cloak to cover his identity, Qilin has no such treatment.

Maria is as calm as ever. Under the sun, the brim of the tricorn hat casts a soft shadow on her delicate pale cheeks.

Adeline curiously lifted the hem of her skirt and looked at the lively convoy that still extended from the main entrance of Aretuza.

For this highest-level wizard gathering, the academy still purchases a large amount of things from time to time, and trucks come and go one after another.

For people living in Yharnam, this "ancient and fresh" scene is indeed enough to make people curious.

In contrast, Adeline and Maria were also watched curiously by people because of their clothes and temperament that seemed a bit strange in this era.

It was just that because they came from the Sorceress Academy, everyone didn't think there was anything wrong with this "strangeness".

"We want to ride horses?"

Seeing Lan En leading two horses over, Adeline asked curiously.

Maria had already skillfully taken the reins of a horse.

"The road there is not easy to walk, and the carriage is not very good. You should be able to ride a horse, right?"

Lan En explained, and at the same time received a nod from the Blood Saint, and handed over the reins of the other horse.

Coincidentally, Berengar also came here along Cardo Street according to the agreed time. Gede, who was tall and strong, with a circle of beard on his face, followed him.

The set of advanced wolf school armor that the old demon hunter had made for himself was quite obvious on the street of Gos Velen.

He rarely holds a sword now, and this set of armor is purely for collection.

Part of the reason for meeting outside the city was for Geralt's sake.

Since you want to hide, it's best to avoid showing up in crowded places.

Maria and Adeline had already had a meal together at a private gathering of demon hunters before, so there was no need to introduce each other.

By the way, because the [Big Eater Vitality] medicine had not yet worn off at that time, Gede was impressed by the appetite of the two ladies.

I thought they Yannan people like to eat very much.

He appreciated the generous appetite and said he wanted to give them some of the special dried and salted fish from his hometown of Arc Coast Principality.

Living in Yanan, which is always gloomy and indifferent, the two ladies who couldn't cope with this enthusiasm muddleheadedly accepted it, and they still haven't found a chance to explain to Gede what happened to their appetite.

After a brief greeting, Berengar took the two Yanan ladies and walked out of the city, while he wanted to lead the Bo faction. This was already discussed.

And looked at the backs of three people holding two horses, walking straight along Caddo Street.

Lan En stretched out his hand to shoo away the flies and gadflies that were still full of energy despite the fall due to the livestock convoy.

"Is there anything unusual in the workshop area?"

Two Bear Schools stood here, Lan En tilted his head to the side and asked.

Gede shrugged: "It's no problem. Didn't you ask me about this during dinner a few days ago?"

"I'm urging you to be careful. After all, Berengar and Geralt are not here during this time, and neither am I."

"But this is Gos Velen." Gede scratched his chin. The seaside man looked at the man next to him with doubts. "The base camp of the sorceress. The workshop is the business of the sorceress."

"Who can carry a barrel of kerosene and burn it with a torch?"

"Are you a little nervous?" At first, Gede was a little unconcerned, but then he looked at Lan En seriously, "Or did you hear something?"

Lan En shook his head: "There have always been rumors, but it's hard to tell whether it's true or false. Now I just have a feeling that it's not peaceful recently."

"Feeling? This is not clear. But I will be cautious."

The strong man with his sides shaved and his hair tied into neat braids nodded, smiled and stretched out his hand, patting the two half-swords behind his back.

It was a Valyrian steel sword cast by Berengar based on the Bear School's drawings. The silver sword was only plated with silver on the outside.

These two swords were carried by Lan En all the way into Cintra, which was destroyed by the war, and were handed over to Gede.

They have already been friends for a long time.

Gede will take Lan En's words seriously. Lan En also fully believed in Gerd's promise.

After all, he trapped himself in Cintra just to deliver Lan En's letter.

"I am earning this money now, so I must use it to do things." Gede scratched his stubbled neck and said matter-of-factly. "I don't want to lose this job."

Lan En glanced at him sideways: "Then I think in order to keep this job, you still have to do some work outside from time to time. You've already gained a lot of weight."

The roaring bear head pendant on the collar of the armor shook and clattered, and Gede kept scratching his head in embarrassment.

After teasing his old friend for his recent desolation, Lan En also took steps and walked towards the outside of the city with his head lowered.

There were no setbacks. Qilin, who had put on the magic harness again after half a year, snorted frequently and shook his head and kicked his legs a little unhappily.

It's like being disgusted with the clothes that don't fit, but in fact it's just a matter of fun.

The Sanhua kitten was jumping on Qilin's back, meowing.

Qilin kicks its legs and jumps from its butt to its head, and shakes its head and jumps from its head to its butt.

"Meow? Oh, the boss is here, meow!"

Berengar mounted the Pope, and although the two Yharnan ladies were not skilled, they were able to sit firmly on the horse.

Geralt was riding a chestnut mare that he had seen for the first time.

"Let me guess, it's called Carrot?"

After the meeting, 'Bang Bang' punched two punches to modify Qilin's personality. After getting on his horse, Lan raised his eyebrows at Geralt.

But the demon hunter from the Wolf School only echoed without enthusiasm: "You are really a prophet."

Although he knew to keep his composure due to Lan En's analysis, Geralt's nerves were still tense as Ciri was being traced.

The reason he could respond to this cold joke was because he was relatively relaxed around Lan En and Berengar.

During this period of time, he would not even be able to smile no matter what.

Lan En also knew that comfort was of little significance, so he just nodded to the others and led the way through the swamps and wilderness of Willen.

The moisture of the swamp and the sea, the strong smell of earth and grass, mix with the wind blowing from the sea.

The wind blew the ancient towering trees on the shore of Willen. There was no cloud or rain, and the vigorous vegetation showed bright colors with high contrast in the sun.

Of course, the howling of wolves in the wild and the barking of wild dogs are indispensable in Willen.

The situation today is tense, but in this wilderness and swamp, it seems completely isolated and unaffected.

Even Geralt, who was in the heaviest mood, seemed to relax a little while galloping.

But just when they had ridden for most of the day and finally arrived at the foot of the mountain near Gaoqiu Castle.

The unicorn in front had been walking at an easy pace, but it slowed down at Lan En's signal and finally stopped completely.

The young demon hunter in the lead, his originally relaxed smile gradually disappeared, and his amber cat eyes looked at the ground.
