Witcher's Atelier

In Crow's Nest Cemetery, the cold icy rain hit his face. Although the Baron had been mentally prepared for it, when the color in front of him was suddenly covered up and the shadow of the corpse lingered around him ruthlessly, he still couldn't hide the shock on his expression.

The cursed creature looked like a baby as Angouleme said, but she didn't mention that the corpse baby's eyes were as big as goose eggs, and they had no whites, and were so dark and deep that it was breathtaking.

Also, although it is the size of a baby, the dark red body is twisted by the curse of hatred and evil - the muscles are intertwined and the veins are exposed. This is a baby with devilish muscles.

She was babbling and crawling on the ground, with no intention of attacking the baron. She even raised her hands to signal to the approaching three people for a hug.

If you can ignore the two neat rows of sharp teeth in your mouth, people with unique aesthetics can actually find the cuteness in them.

Facing this scene, "Go pick her up!" Geralt said calmly.

Phillip was shocked, "Go and hug her!? Are you crazy?"

"No, he is not crazy..." Angoulin said, "You are lucky. The corpse baby seems to have been formed not long ago and has not harmed others yet. Although the body is cursed, the heart is still innocent. Now go pick her up. Let's Get her out of here and don’t forget she’s your child!”

The last sentence touched the Baron. He glanced at the white wolf and nodded in agreement. He mustered up the courage to step forward and pick up the corpse baby.

Her body was cold, and the skin outside the bulging muscles was unexpectedly delicate and tender. He was not mentally prepared at first. When he picked her up, Phillip's hand almost slipped and fell to the ground. Fortunately, he adjusted his center of gravity in time to hold the baby firmly and hold her tightly.

"Move calmly and don't panic! Be careful to control your expression and don't bring uneasiness to the child!" the female witch hunter warned seriously.

Maybe blood really is thicker than water. The Bloody Baron got used to it for a while, and actually held him in a decent manner, with the corpse baby giggling and playing in his arms.

Everything seemed to be going in the right direction, but just as they were about to leave the public cemetery, there was a faint green light and a dark wind in the heavy rain, which were signs of the appearance of demon spirits.

"Clang!" Pulling out the silver sword, Geralt prepared to fight. He was originally worried that Angouleme would be at a loss due to his lack of experience, but he didn't expect to take a glance at the girl and see that the girl was calm and composed.

For Angouleme, the scene before her was no stranger. As early as in the Skellige Islands, she and Victor had experienced being surrounded by the demon army.

At that time, the number of monsters and the level of excitement outside the lighthouse were more exaggerated than they are today.

What’s more, she is no longer what she used to be!

Pressing one palm on the ground to mobilize magic power, Angoulan, although his talent was far inferior to that of the second-mutated Victor, could not control it with ease. But after a whole winter of special training, she was at least able to perform this move correctly!

"Arden. Magic Turret!"

The faint blue light reacts to form an ancient talisman with substance, and emits lightning rays at a fixed frequency, striking at the lurking and approaching demon spirits...

…

"Before you die, you should take care of your own affairs, say goodbye to your loved ones, write a will, and apologize to those you have hurt, otherwise you will become a demon and will never leave this world."

──Farmer healer Paul Vicar’s advice to a dying man

…

And just when Angoulan, a member of the Crow's Nest, was showing off his skills, Victor, the leader of the Elf Ruins, opened his eyes.

As if awakened from a light sleep, his eyes quickly returned to clarity from confusion, and the corners of his mouth raised to smile at Keira.

"Done! I know what happened to them! There are not many people coming this time, and the hunting time is tight. We can have a tough battle with them. It will be more valuable if we can catch a 'navigator'!"

"Compared with the Wild Hunt, don't you think you should explain to me what you just did first? I can see clearly that it is 'Hamawi's Blue Dream' - the famous necromancy, but It’s not like the three-legged cat seals of ordinary witchers, which must be cast by a highly accomplished warlock, and you’re not even a spell caster!”

Victor scratched the back of his head, knowing that it would be impossible not to give the other party an explanation for this matter, but it was nothing in the first place. He could guess the other party's "bold idea", but that bold idea would not work.

"It has nothing to do with the Green Grass Trial. This is the magical result of secondary mutation, and as you know, the success rate is like that.

And I'm not casting a spell, but simulating it with a sigil, and I can't create it. In fact, if you know Desmo and have seen Desmo in Banad cast this spell, you will find that my spellcasting model borrows a lot from him! "

"You only saw him perform it once and you copied it!?"

Facing Keira's surprised face, Victor smiled and said indifferently, "Don't make a fuss! Not only his, I also copied Philippa's magic turret and hidden aura. Xi'er also taught me two interesting ways to change the seal! I’ll show you when I get a chance!”

The sorceress immediately jumped on the beast hunter, "That's easy to say! Do you know how important this is? The spells you copied are not simple spells, and a mage with insufficient talent cannot even cast them!

You can't imagine how many people are willing to pay the price of their lives to be you! The king won't mind if hundreds of people die, as long as he can cultivate a warrior like you! "

Holding the petite Kayla like a baby, Victor patted her back gently, "Calm down, dear, things are not that simple. You and I studied the secondary mutation together. You know very well that there is no very successful primary mutation. , secondary mutation is out of the question.

As for the growth and successful first mutation, this problem has stumped many mages for hundreds of years. You know it better than me. "

"But didn't you make a breakthrough?"

"But I will not continue to study it, or even prepare to permanently store it. Because the world is not ready to accept this kind of thing."

"In the name of intellectual progress, you are committing a crime!"

"No! I am protecting the balance of the world. I dare say that even humans in a thousand years will not be ready to accept a world where everyone can live for hundreds of years. And the method of everyone being like a dragon will cause so much bloodshed , it doesn’t take much clever thinking to imagine.

Think about it, why did the amazingly talented Archmage Azulie, who carried out cold-blooded experiments hundreds of years ago, stop abruptly after creating the Demon Hunter?

Why was it that at a certain point in time, the inheritance of the witchers was suddenly disconnected, and all the magical knowledge and power related to the Trial of Green Grass disappeared?

The reason is actually very simple, because if he continues to study, when the experimental results are spread, it will not only shake his proud foundation as a mage, but also destroy the blood theory that all kingdoms rely on, and all the universal values ​​we know will also be destroyed. Will start over again!

Even Archmage Azulie, who acted recklessly and dared to experiment on human subjects, was unwilling to bear the historical responsibility! "

"You are making false assumptions!"

"No! This is not speculation, but the last words left by Azuri. There is Azuri's Tower on the outskirts of Vizima, where I obtained his research information and last words. He hopes that people who will develop the Trial of Grass in the future will Think carefully about the consequences of spreading the word.

Kayla you are a smart person, think about it for a few more minutes and you will understand…. If anyone could live for hundreds of years, what would happen? Do you think humans really need to transform into ‘immortal species’? "

Being reminded by the witcher, the sorceress suddenly came out of her excitement. This research involves too many aspects, whether it is an attack on the bloodline theory or the high-level blockade and coveting of technology.

After being quiet for a while, she reluctantly said, "Then what do you want to do?"

"Nothing to do!" The witcher shrugged, "No matter who wants to turn the whole world into mutants, such a guy is destined to be punished by 'justice'! Even if someone else develops it successfully in the future, it has nothing to do with me. good.

Of course, my relatives and friends are interested, and I will be happy to help them prepare a tailor-made herbal medicine, just like Angoulan, which will definitely participate in the secondary mutation.

As for some of the more complicated parts, it has nothing to do with me! "

Understanding the witcher's position, the sorceress's silence lasted longer this time.

In the darkness, drops of water dripped from the damp zenith of the ruins.

Some time passed, and when Keira finally nodded in agreement, Victor returned to his relaxed smile, "Throw away those troubles, let's talk about Wild Hunt!"
