"And after finding a blacksmith, turning the blueprint into a finished product, or researching and improving it, requires a lot of money to buy materials. This is not a top priority. We should use the funds for more important things, such as formula improvement."

Everyone can't help nodding.

The top priority of the Witcher Brotherhood is always the cultivation of apprentices.

……

Introductions and mission reports for newcomers are complete.

Roy cleared his throat, and stood up from his seat, "The first work ended successfully, and everyone did a great job! Guys, it's time to start the second phase of work."

"From tomorrow, Coral will be closed in the laboratory under the Temple Island, analyzing and studying the herbal decoction formulas of the Snake School, Wolf School, Cat School, and Flying Lion School..."

"Ms. Rita..." Vulture interrupted suddenly, "Karl, I hope you can take more care."

"Exactly, I have something I want to discuss with you." Coral stroked the red hair on the side of the ear, and said hesitantly, "Your Excellency Owl, you insist on letting Carl take the cat pie grass decoction? I hosted the grass trial for Roy, I also roughly analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the formulas of the cat pie, snake pie, and the flying lion school."

Eleven pairs of vertical pupils turned to the sorceress, and all the witchers were attracted by this content.

"Among the three formulas, the cat pie formula has a high fatality rate, the most side effects, and the most likely to cause uncontrollable mutations. Even if they survive the trial, the survivor's emotions may be magnified, mentally disturbed, and become manic. !"

"And the recipe of the Wolf Pie." Azure eyes swept over Vesemir, and the old man smiled and nodded at the sorceress.

"Even though I haven't gotten my hands on it yet, it's clear...it's safer than cat pie."

The melodious and magnetic voice of the female sorceress is very meaningful, "But to say which formula I have the most confidence in, Karl is most likely to survive it safely, and there are also snake pie and flying lion monster."

"No!" Vulture said with a gloomy face, unwillingly, "The little monkey has been drinking the predrug of cat pie for several months, how can he change it to another formula?"

"You can't slightly improve the cat pie formula within a month or so."

"Your Excellency Owl, I must remind you," Coral shook her head helplessly, and Roy held her hand comfortingly, "Recipe improvement is an extremely delicate and cumbersome job, and it won't happen in a year or a half. No effect. Let alone me as a researcher... I can only say that I will do my best."

"As for your concerns, the cat-sect prodrug that Carl took is not much different from other school-sected pro-drugs, the effect...only enhances poison resistance a little."

"To be honest, if he uses the Flying Lion Monster Green Herb Decoction, I'm [-]% sure that he'll get through it safely, and I'm [-]% sure that the Snake Pie will have no severe side effects! And the Cat Pie is no more than [-]% sure."

The success of the flying lion monster still depends on Roy's first trial and relevant data.

"Seventy percent?!"

The faces of everyone present suddenly changed, and their breathing became heavy.

"Damn, our pass rate was only [-]% before!" Lambert slapped his knees angrily, and he thought of those companions who failed to make it through. "It's overdue to tie a warlock to Kaer Morhen!"

Vesemir also looked surprised, but more pleased.

And the vulture spat frantically on the ground.

"The flying lion monster is the flying lion monster!"

In the final analysis, although he favors the "bloodline" of Maopai, he still hopes that the students can live normally.

"A demon hunter of the Flying Lion School is at least a demon hunter!"

Kayan nodded in sympathy, and put his arms around his companion's shoulders, "Owl, little Karl is the first apprentice to undergo a trial after the establishment of the Brotherhood. It is of great significance. Only success is not allowed to fail! Think about the overall situation."

"Furthermore, Article [-] of the fraternity stipulates that forming cliques is not allowed... Didn't we promise that after joining the fraternity, the sects will gradually be cancelled..."

"Cat School, Snake School, Wolf School, the school that can train students is the most suitable school!" Oakes interjected.

Shan Shan showed a relaxed smile on her pretty face, and exchanged glances with the people around her. "Then in the next month, I will use the formula of the Flying Lion School as a blueprint to study and further optimize it. I need an assistant. Roy is very suitable, and he has a good understanding with me."

Leto and Serrit cast a questioning look at Roy.

Could this kid be pretending to be a public servant, secretly hiding in the laboratory and dating the sorceress day and night?

"Little devil, after a month, don't go in with two of you, but come out with three of you."

"Three is not enough, at least ten or eight!" Roy's behavior was different from the past, he lost his position after a few ridicules, and just shook his head with a smile on his lips.

In fact, the combination of a witcher and a sorceress cannot produce a single one.

"To shut up!"

The female sorceress was touched by the scar in her heart, and she gouged out the bald man with displeasure, like an angry cat.

Then he comforted himself again,

Stupid wretch, I don't even know that my students are about to risk their lives for the second green grass trial.

Great sacrifice for the Witcher Brotherhood!

And only you know the inside story.

Coral took a deep breath, put away his complaints and continued, "Roy and I will try to make Karl's green grass trial safe. Materials..."

"Don't worry about the materials, I collected two sets earlier...I'll send them to you later." Vulture said, "Anyway, the mutants in the formula are generally universal... Let's make it so."

……

"Ahem, everyone, is it my turn to arrange work?" Vesemir glanced out of the meeting room window, and a few sneaky little heads got under the window sill in an instant, "I found out that the group of kids in the orphanage There are several thorns that need to be dealt with severely."

"How about letting my old bones contribute?"

He half closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and sighed, "Being with the children, the whole person will be a few years younger, maybe I can live a few more years."

Everyone looked at this old face with a hint of expectation.

"What Master Vesemir said is true. The five reserve demon hunter apprentices have nowhere to vent their energy and are too exuberant." Send, "It's time to increase the amount of training... The free time every night is cancelled! It will be replaced by the second fencing class."

"Master Vesemir will be the guide!"

The five little boys who were eavesdropping under the window sill instantly turned bitter faces, looking at each other with teary eyes, and silently choked up.

The sorceress also noticed something, leaning against the demon hunter's arms and giggling coquettishly.

……

Then everyone focused on whether to send people to the coast of Povis to find and persuade the last few descendants of the Griffin Sect.

Vesemir calmly revealed the location of the Kyle Siren.

But he does not recommend immediate action.

"My old friend Kelda is harder and more conservative than the weather-beaten stones on the mountain...and has a sharp eye, so it's not easy to change his mind. We haven't worked out anything now, and we can't convince him."

"In short, it's best to wait until the Witcher Brotherhood has cultivated a few young apprentices before contacting him."

……

Summary of the final meeting:

Roy and Rita Nieder will go to retreat under the Temple Island tomorrow to conduct the trial of the flying lion monster green grass, record the experimental data, and lay the groundwork for Karl's trial.

The remaining demon hunters: Leto and the Oakes brothers, Lambert, and Vesemir take turns teaching students, managing the pharmacy, and training Gawain Samsa's men.

Aiden free inspection.

Vulture and Escal equip the Bear Pie and Snake Pie armor brought back by Vesemir, prepare vampire oil, enter the sewers of Novigrad, clear out the monsters lurking there, collect mutants, and fry more green grass. medicine to prepare.

As for the missing equipment blueprints.

Rita Nieder opened the portal and sent Geralt and Kayan to the outskirts of Velen to find the blueprint of the Griffin.

Because the Snake Sect, Cat Vulture and Mrs. Lin have a grudge, it is best for other members to go.

Chapter 18 opens the second trial

In the laboratory under the Temple Island, the infusion furnace ignited a flame after a long absence.

The hazy firelight illuminated two figures.

Roy put on a light and breathable woolen silk underwear and sat on the cold operating table.

Standing in front of her was a sorceress with slightly frowning eyebrows and a serious expression.

Her ten fingers flew like flying, and the gorgeous magic light condensed and flickered at the slender fingertips, frantically pouring into the demon hunter's body, reflecting the gorgeous light.

A quill pen moves automatically without wind, writing dazzling pieces of data and characters on the spread parchment.

All of a sudden, the whole laboratory could only hear the "rustling" sound of the pen tip rapidly rubbing against the paper.

After half an hour.

The dazzling magic light dissipated, Rita Nieder stopped casting the spell, and picked up the record next to her.

"Well... blood pressure, heartbeat, blood oxygen levels, breathing rate... normal... very healthy."

"I've said it earlier, I've been preparing for this grass trial for a year, and it's guaranteed to be foolproof!" Roy patted his chest with a smile.

"Little villain, when did you suffer from dwarf bragging? You have been preparing for a year. Doesn't this mean that you have just passed the Snake Sect test and started preparing for the second test?" Rita Nieder wrinkled her nose, coquettishly Gouged him out, slapped him on the knee,

"Don't interrupt me, just sit down and don't move! Hmm... dark golden pupils, black hair, fair complexion... 5.8 feet (1.78 meters) tall, 170 pounds in weight, and the muscle density is far beyond ordinary people..." Her eyes lighted He swept over one of the demon hunters like water, and poked his chest with purple-painted nails, "Little villain, your physique is at least twice that of ordinary humans, as strong as a lion..."

"Is this a compliment? Coral, I have to say, you are very qualified to judge." The demon hunter swept her coral lips with a half-smile, "But will my weight be slightly overweight and hurt you... ..."

"Let's talk about the topic, be honest with me, little villain!"

The sorceress seemed to have remembered something, a blush flew across her cheeks,

Roy bared his teeth.

He rubbed the bruise on the back of his hand.

Rita Nieder continued without realizing it, "Aside from your physique, your skin is as smooth as silk, more delicate than a woman's, and you can't find any scars or blemishes... You can't even see calluses. This is not normal!"

The blue eyes stared straight at him, with a hint of envy shining,

"This kind of skin does not look like a witcher who is exposed to the sun and sweating profusely... Tell me honestly, are you a mage who escaped from Ben Ade Academy and used camouflage magic to replace my little villain?"

"Coral, you know that I don't even have a scar on my body, which means that you have checked very carefully... What a competent doctor!" Roy grabbed her hand, kissed the back of her hand lightly, looked up at her, There were turbulent waves in his eyes, as if to drown her, "So I want to repay you, can I?"

"Okay, that's the end of the joke." The sorceress trembled and stroked his face comfortingly, "Don't be like a child who is greedy for candy, you must know how to control yourself, understand? Especially during the trial period , you must concentrate on it, and you must not be distracted by other things!"

The witcher closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then shook his head in frustration, "I'm sorry, Shan Shan, I don't know what's wrong. In the past few days, I've been restless and irritable, and I can't control it...I keep thinking wildly, like suffering from mania disease."

"Giggle... just getting full of energy and blood, this is a normal phenomenon, just get used to it slowly." Coral came up behind him silently like a cat, pressed his shoulders, let him lean back into the warm embrace, and He stamped it on his forehead and gave it a little sweetness, "Then you still don't remember the steps of the green grass trial?"

"Hormonal catalysis, viral infection, and finally taking green herbal decoction... Coral, are you sure you can do this trial in a month?"

"You have completely passed the Snake Sect trial. For apprentices whose resistance to poison far exceeds that of the first trial, the step of improving toxicity can be omitted directly. One month is definitely enough."

"As for virus infection, since the furnace virus and glacier virus have been used."

"This time we must replace it with a more effective virus—I selected three viruses from the four recipes of Snake Pie, Cat Pie, Wolf Pie, and Winged Lion... Trembling Virus, Canary Virus, and Silencer Virus."

"After being infected with the three viruses, your immune system will be temporarily destroyed, and you will become a completely defenseless shell, entering a plastic state, to welcome the flying lion monster green grass decoction."

Roy wiped the sweat from his forehead and swallowed again. "The three viruses...have any effects?"

"The first kind tortures your nerves, causing you to convulse like an epileptic seizure, accompanied by sharp pain all over your body."

"The second virus affects your brain. According to records, the infected person will continue to utter 'jiu jiu' calls, don't laugh, you won't be able to cry when the time comes!"

"The third type is the most dangerous. It will cut off all your reactions, making you lose your sense of smell, hearing, vision, and touch, but your brain is awake. It's like... a medical vegetable, no, it's ten times worse than that!"

The demon hunter took a deep breath, and the dark gold pupils flashed a little nervous.

"That's more than that..." Rita Need laughed,

"The difficulty lies in the last step, the process of changing the herb potion, the foreign decoction of the flying lion monster and the snake pie decoction deposited in your body have a medicinal conflict. At that time, you will either live or die..."

"A month will definitely tell."

"But don't worry..." The female sorceress lowered her body, poked her head over his right shoulder, and pressed her cheek against his, saying sweet and cruel words, "Little villain, if you can't be saved, I will send you away with my own hands , and let you enjoy the last tenderness before you leave."

"Um... are you sure you can still feel comfortable when people are dying?"

"Don't complain, forget it, it's your own choice." Rita Nieder stroked his hair with a light smile, her eyes thoughtful,

"Your hair seems to be a bit long, and the hairstyle is too old-fashioned. It needs to be trimmed." At some point, the sorceress had an extra pair of scissors in her hand, before the witcher agreed.

Pressing his temples with one hand, and controlling the scissors with the other hand to "click, click"...

The black hair flowing over the back of the neck instantly fell onto the operating table.

Roy rested on a soft pillow all over his body, sniffing the rich aroma from the tip of his nose, and said nonchalantly, "Coral, just use magic to shave my head."

The older he gets, the lower the requirements for hairstyles. He can wear long hair in a ponytail, cut it to short hair that reaches the ears, or even have a bald head. He is fine.

"Don't even think about it!" The female sorceress put on a serious face, her blue eyes flashed with annoyance, and she warned severely, "If you become ugly like Lei Suo, at least for a month, I will never talk to you!"

Roy felt a chill in his heart,

"The mutation is uncontrollable. What if the flying lion blames the grass decoction to turn me into a bald head?"
