Chapter 6 Sacrifice Greater Than Meaning

Genius to remember the address of this site in one second: []The fastest update! No ads!

During the whole day, the Snake Pie and the Wolf Pie were almost soaked in the training ground.

In addition to learning the seal of Heliotrope, there are also some interesting projects interspersed in the middle - Oaks and Lambert always bickered because they did not like each other, and they were singled out twice.

Lord Vesemir served as the referee.

As a result, the young wolf witcher was educated twice.

The age gap was there, and there was a gap between him and Oaks, no matter swordsmanship or seal.

However, the more Lambert lost, the more unconvinced he became, and the more he fought, the more courageous he became.

…

Roy didn't get involved in this muddy water. He sneaked around with Iskar around Kyle Mohan.

The huge fortress, towers, and numerous rooms, at least accommodated hundreds of people in its heyday. He could imagine the scene of prosperity many years ago.

Traces of the past can be seen everywhere.

Dilapidated portraits or murals hang on the walls between some corridors.

Some belong to the famous wolf faction, such as Ryans, the leader of the wolf faction in a certain era, Vesemir, the only remaining great master of the wolf faction, and his three disciples.

There is also a mural involving other schools - the dragon slayer of the Griffon School "George of Kagan", with his hands sketching spells, Igni's firelight and Alder's blue light intertwined, and the green dragon wailing and giving his head.

According to Eskar, the Wolf Mentors thought it would be beneficial for their witcher apprentices to train them in the context of George's Dragon Quest.

In fact, George died very embarrassed, killing the green dragon who was causing disaster everywhere, but he was seriously injured and dying, and he didn't even have the strength to drink the healing potion.

In the end, a thief took away the equipment and blueprint, and pretended to save it, but was actually murdered.

George died unwillingly and disappointedly.

A witcher of the Griffin faction who abides by the way of knighthood, he tried his best to kill the monsters that devastated and burned the village for humans, but he himself died from the greed of humans.

things are too ironic,

So that the stubborn apprentices of the wolf faction did not respect this foreign dragon slayer very much, and painted him an exaggerated mustache and a male outline full of majesty.

The glory days are in the past.

Kyle Morhan is empty now, with no ghosts to be seen in most areas, and minimal home decor.

The cold wind blowing across the wilderness blew in through the window and passed through the corridor unobstructed, without even hearing an echo.

The whole fortress was quiet and lonely like a dead city, like a ruin.

...

The two walked through the corridors and stepped onto the long spiral escalator.

Escal dutifully explained the purpose and history of each building and room: reception room, training ground, lectern, alchemy room, blacksmithing hall, library... Most of the facilities were damaged and unable to work, leaving only basic functions.

"Master Escal, Kyle Morhan has always been just the four of you? How long has this been going on?"

The strong man lowered his head and was silent for a long time,

"There are actually seven or eight of our contemporary wolf faction, but most of them died in the Demon Hunter Tournament."

Witcher Tournament?

It looked like a competition between schools of northern witchers.

Roy recalled.

It happened when Geralt was in his teens and twenties. At the conference, King Radovit II of Kaldwin alienated the Cat faction witchers and fought against the Wolf faction together.

He secretly called heavy troops, intending to wipe out all mutants.

Although the conspiracy was incomplete, most of the witchers in the north died in this battle.

Druid Mossack, the referee, came to the rescue, and Geralt escaped.

"There are also two or three witchers who have disappeared and betrayed the school, and they may not escape their fate and die in a certain battle."

Roy shook his head secretly, not necessarily.

As far as he knew, Berengar, the master blacksmith who betrayed the Wolf Sect, lived in Vizima and was alive and well.

"To this day, Kyle Mohan hasn't added fresh blood for more than 20 years. The last apprentice was an orphan picked up by Teacher Vesemir. It's a pity. Due to the lack of warlock assistance, he couldn't survive the grass trial. Dying... painful."

Furui Bubo's face showed deep loneliness, and Eskar added, "For more than 20 years, only the four of us have lived in Kyle Morhan to barely maintain a little popularity."

"Vesemir is stationed at the castle most of the time. And I, Geralt, and Lambert come back every winter to drink and share stories around the campfire until spring."

Roy was in a trance.

Geralt, the three young men, could at least venture out and have some fun.

An old man in Vesemir, who has been guarding such a lonely and broken fortress for decades, what is it like?

He was suddenly puzzled.

What is the reason, the wolf faction has not made any changes for hundreds of years, allowing itself to be annihilated by the times?

He couldn't help but ask,

"Apart from Master Vesemir, have you three 'young people' recruited apprentices?"

Escal's swift pace stopped, and he stroked the scar on his right face again.

He remembered the creator of the scar, his accidental son.

At the beginning, Escal chose to let go and did not take her away. She did not become a witcher, but she also started a brilliant life.

"Me and Geralt are no match for the apprentice."

"The profession of witcher is always linked to fate. The rise, prosperity, and decline of the academy are also destined results." The man said, "If the law of accident prevents us from recruiting apprentices, it is fate. !"

Roy raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect the scar-faced man to have such a negative and pessimistic attitude.

The meaning revealed in the words is not to wait for fate to send the apprentice to him, what is the difference between waiting for the pie to fall from the sky?

"Master Escal, have you ever thought that if the wolf faction doesn't make a little change and continue to let it go. Those who return to Kyle Morhan in the winter, and the partners who have a good time with you and share the wonderful journey, will Fewer and fewer."

"Aren't you sad, sad?"

…

"I'm used to it..." Escal shook his head, "Witchers always leave suddenly."

"You have experienced the trial of green grass, understand, the process of mutation is full of misfortune and pain."

The man paused, looked at the empty hall, and said the words that Roy will never forget,

"To a certain extent, every time there is an unexpected child who accepts the trial of green grass, there is one more family torn up in the world, and one more mutant who has endured the malice of the whole world for a long time and is lonely."

"But this pain is also rewarded, and all the effort is worth it!" Roy retorted, "At least after the mutation, the witcher has the power and lifespan that ordinary people can't match, repels robbers and invaders, and lives in a dangerous environment. down."

"With this power, the world is so big, where can it go?"

...

"Roy, you are still young...you don't understand some truth. For most people, an ordinary and ordinary life is the real happiness." Escal shook his head. "As a witcher, sacrifice is far greater than meaning!"

"Moreover, Kyle Mo Rare has long since lost the fortress-based mages, and many alchemy instruments are not fiddled with. The grass trial is too risky, and it is tantamount to death."

"Geralt thinks so too?"

Escal didn't answer, or tacitly said.

No wonder they avoided the subject of change last night.

Perhaps Vesemir would be better off as a whole, and still willing to take apprentices.

Lambert is more contradictory.

There is no doubt that Geralt and Escal have to take some responsibility for the decline of the wolf faction.

They don't want to see any more young children, tormented by cruel mutations.

So they all gave up their daughter of destiny.

Unless God sends an orphan without a parent to him.

Otherwise, these two guys will probably never open.

Roy sighed, with a strong premonition in his heart.

It is not difficult to reach a covenant of mutual aid with the wolf faction.
