"Shua—" The knife flashed, and the ugly big head of the tomb witch separated from her neck, and rolled to the feet of the bald man.

And a row of beautiful words emerged from Roy's template:

Kill the Catacomb Witch, gain experience 100 (103/1000)

The experience of this monster is actually ten times that of ordinary animals.

Chapter 13 persuasion

Lesso pulled out his sharp dagger, and skillfully divided the body of the tomb witch, his technique was no worse than that of a butcher who handles livestock.

Eyeballs, ears, and unknown meatballs were all neatly placed on the flat blue cloth, and several fist-sized twisted lumps were taken out from the monster's abdomen, and they were shaken in the hands.

"Fortunately, this tomb witch has reached a certain age, and the mutant is just used to supplement the decoction."

"Master, what are these things?"

Leso couldn't help but glance at Roy when he heard the sound. The boy calmly stabbed the dying tomb witch, and didn't change his face when he faced the bloody scene of the demon hunter breaking up the loot.

What an anomaly!

Another person, even an adult, should have spit it out long ago.

His courage and guts caused a ripple in the demon hunter's heart.

"It's a good seedling."

Lesso pointed to the divided objects, and began to patiently explain each name and use to Roy, while the latter also listened quietly, occasionally frowning to show his thoughts.

"By the way, Roy, who are in your family?" Lesso asked casually.

"I live with my father and mother."

Lei Suo felt a little disappointed when he heard the words, so he couldn't help speeding up and quickly disposed of the valuable things on the tomb witch.

After about an hour, when the alchemy gas in the tomb completely dissipated, everyone entered the home that once belonged to the tomb keeper.

The original normal human room has been transformed beyond recognition by monsters, dirty clay is everywhere, and the space looks damp and dark.Pots and pots and strange utensils can be seen everywhere, as if the tomb witch was refining something during her lifetime.On the surrounding clay walls, there are also some tragic bone decorations of humans and small animals.

It looked eerie, terrifying and bloody.

When Roy looked at the innermost wall, he suddenly quickened his pace and rushed over.

"Brandon..." Or the little fat man who used to have a runny nose and loved to pester him, leaving only a rotting corpse pierced by dark wooden sticks, like a hanging flag.

His skinny, shriveled face and eyes were removed, revealing two dark hollows, and the mouth was slightly open, which could vaguely reveal the extreme fear before birth.

Roy closed his eyes, took a deep breath, carefully removed his bones, and held them in his arms without hesitation, as if he didn't smell the pungent smell of decay and mold.

"I'm sorry...if I had given you more patience..."

At this time, he felt a big warm hand on his shoulder,

"Sorry, you have avenged them." The witcher comforted him uncharacteristically.

Not long after, Roy buried the bodies of the blacksmith, butcher and his son, and wrote the tombstone with the help of the witcher.

Originally, he wanted to find the tomb of the butcher's deceased wife and rebury the family of three together, but unfortunately the cemetery was severely damaged by the witch beyond recognition, so he couldn't find it, so he had to bury the butcher and his son together.

……

After tidying up the cemetery, Roy followed the demon hunter back to the village. The old couple surrounded him crying and checked.

The witcher showed the hideous and ugly witch's head to all the villagers, and then got a reward from the village chief and one-eyed Jack.

At this moment, the riot caused by the monster finally came to an end.But it's not over.

The villagers were surprised to find that the three demon hunters did not leave immediately after receiving the reward, but rented a room in the tavern to live temporarily.

Without the threat of the tomb witch, the state of the villagers became very strange again. They began to point and slander the witcher, and they were very disgusted...

"The monster has been killed, and the bounty has been given. Why don't these three mutants leave?"

"Look at them, they don't look like good people. This is not good for the village chief. You have to find a way to send them away as soon as possible! Let them stay for one night at most!"

"Families with children be careful! Don't sleep tonight or tomorrow until they leave. I heard that witchers like to steal children and train them to be disgusting mutants!"

Hearing the stupid and prejudiced remarks of a group of villagers, Roy shook his head in disdain, then left the crowd and ran to the tavern. It happened that the three demon hunters were drinking and chatting enthusiastically with One-eyed Jack, or that One-eyed Jack was vigorously advocating His gwent skills.

This old captain, who had been in Skellige for decades, did not have the superstitious idea that most of the villagers in Kaye Village rejected demon hunters for no reason.

"I don't know if that brat Roy started practicing Gwent cards from his mother's womb, and made sixty crowns from old Jack in a row."

"It just so happens that you well-informed masters are here, can Old Jack ask you to help me and teach this brat a lesson for me!"

……

An hour later, Lei Suo's unchanging poker face twitched, and he took out a handful of gold crowns from his purse.

"Hey, 15 kroner, one-tenth of the entrustment fee."

"Okay, kid, you've won enough money, let's talk about business. You're not afraid of us at all, and you took the initiative to come over to communicate with us, what's the matter? Are you interested in the story of the witcher? Which version do you want to hear? ?” Lei Suo exchanged glances with his two companions, and sat around the boy’s table, staring at him with piercing eyes.

It's like an interrogation.

Roy's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't hide his thoughts. He smiled and said bluntly, "Did you see it? I do have some thoughts... As far as I know, you have a long lifespan, are healthy and full of vitality, and are basically not Will get sick, and have powers that ordinary people can't imagine..."

As a former player, who doesn't have a dream of a witcher?He still remembers the motto of the witcher: I want a horse as dark as the night and as fast as the wind; I want a sword as bright as the moonlight; I want to ride my black horse at night; I will cut down the evil with the sword in my hand.

Traveling back and forth once was also one of his wishes.

"Wait... If I heard you right, are you envious of 'mutants'? I have to double check," Serritt interrupted suddenly, his amber eyes looked him up and down, "Roy, you Isn't your real age 30?"

"Who told you this kind of fallacy! Those 'mutants' are powerful, they won't get sick, and they live a long time. They are enviable!?" Serrit sneered suddenly, rolled his eyes, and took a sip Liquor, the whole person went crazy, "I tell you, the identity of a witcher is a curse, a doom that can never be escaped, you shouldn't envy us. I also envy this carefree life in the countryside , won’t be disliked and hated by others inexplicably, and won’t be on the way to death and escape every time you open your eyes!”

Roy's face froze, and he moved his upper body back a little. He was not used to Serrit's violent temper, sharp words, and rich facial expressions. Lambert, a good friend of Tet, is quite similar.

Lesso and Oakes crossed their arms, like a gourd, allowing their companions to speak.

"Your boy looks very pleasing to the eye, I kindly advise you...stay in the country, don't always think about taking risks and killing monsters, there won't always be someone in front who will help you chop off the monster's limbs and leave the head I want you to take one last shot." Serrit took another sip of wine, "In two years, when you marry a wife and have children, you will know that I am doing it for your own good."

This guy thought he killed the tomb witch just to satisfy the teenager's adventurous psychology?

"Serrit is right," Lei Suo said, with a bit of regret in his tone, "If you just envy the superb skills of demon hunters and are interested in monsters, there is no need to continue the following conversation."

"On this road, pain is definitely more than happiness. You still have relatives, live well and be an ordinary person. This is my advice to you."

"But you can at least protect yourselves..." Roy retorted unwillingly. Compared with the previous path of trembling and gaining experience, now, a more professional, comprehensive, and efficient path of strength is in front of him.

He struggled to hold it in his palm.

And he could feel that the three demon hunters were also hesitating.

"If you have more strength than ordinary people. At least it won't be like my friends and teachers... being preyed upon by that bastard...not even leaving a whole body behind."

"You think too much... As a senior demon hunter, I can tell you clearly," No. 3 demon hunter Oakes took a sip of beer and showed a hearty smile, "unless the celestial sphere converges again, causing a large number of monsters to swarm Come in. Otherwise, the total number of monsters in this world will continue to decrease. They can't always find trouble in Kaye Village. After this time, the village will be peaceful for many years, and there is no need to worry at all."

"It is not only monsters that can threaten life, but also people, diseases and wars."

Roy's words made the witcher suddenly silent.

After a long while, Serrit spoke sarcastically again, "What a weird kid, what's on his mind? You don't look like a 13-year-old at all, and you don't behave like that in the cemetery at all. Do you have Suffering from paranoia?"

"I've never seen an idiot like you take the initiative to come over!"

"I'm more precocious." Roy took a sip of dwarf spirits, and the alcohol entered his brain, and he became more courageous.

"Believe it or not, I have been able to dream a lot of horrible things since I was a child... Bloody and ominous encounters, especially in recent years, the dreams have become more and more frequent?" Roy paused, "I have a hunch, at most three In [-], the world will be in chaos, and people will die. Before that, at least let me learn something useful? I think the witcher is a good teacher."

"Come on, brat!" Serrit looked disdainful, "Don't make up stories to deceive us, and dream, you think you are a prophet?"

"I knew you wouldn't believe it." Roy shook his head and sighed, but he was not lying. Three years later, in 1263, the first Northern War was about to begin.

Maybe the curtain of war has been slowly opened.

"I just want to become a little bit stronger. Even if I don't have the superb skills like you, I must at least be able to protect the people I care about... Send Old Moore and Susie to Novigrad to live a safer and more comfortable life." life……"

Lesso tapped the wine table with his thick fingers, "I'm afraid you don't know what it takes to become a demon hunter."

"I know the death rate of the green grass trial is as high as [-]%, and the defects of infertility."

Lei Suo was stunned when he heard that, and the faces of the two demon hunters also became very exciting, "How can you be so clear about this kind of thing? Have you seen other demon hunters?"

"I said it was a dream, do you believe me?"

"Stop talking nonsense! But we probably understand your attitude." Lei Suo said solemnly, "Little devil, now, I will give you a chance to think again."

"No, I've already thought about it seriously." What Roy thought in his mind was that learning from a demon hunter would not 100% become a demon hunter in the future.

But it would be nice to have more options.

Lei Suo looked at the two companions, they nodded at him, and then stretched out their thick palms towards Roy, "We are leaving Kaye Village tomorrow, kid, would you like to go with us?"

Roy held Lei Suopu's fan-sized hand, but deliberately hesitated for a long time,

"Not yet, I must save enough money to settle down with my parents." Lei Suo interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and gave the answer he wanted.

"If you trust the witcher, Serrit and Oakes will escort the old Moore couple to the place you just mentioned, Novigrad. It just so happens that they are also going to do something there. You are right about one thing. , Novigrad is safer than Kaye village.”

"What do you think?" Now that he had accepted the result, Serrit's attitude was completely different from before. He pinched the poisonous snake pendant on his chest with one hand and said seriously, "Ox and I are in Novigrad for the old man. The Moore couple arranged a food stall to do business, and promised to let them stabilize there. Our two brothers can use the reputation of Viper Academy to guarantee you."

"That would be great."

Roy carefully observed the expressions of the two demon hunters, and heaved a sigh of relief. This was already the best result he could achieve.

"To help me like this, you need to spend a lot of money."

Lesso shrugged nonchalantly, "For the Viper School, wealth is far less important than a qualified apprentice. And I'll tell you, the school hasn't been replenished with fresh blood for 20 years... nothing unexpected It's out of order. You've acted very spiritually in the face of the tomb witch..."

"An unprecedented child who actively approached the demon hunter, you have such a firm idea, maybe the chances of passing the green grass trial will be higher?"

"Although you are a little older, something is better than nothing."

Chapter 14 Embark on a Journey

Roy agreed to Leto's invitation.

In fact, becoming a demon hunter is a good choice, after all, he has not awakened the magical talent of a warlock.

It was just a little unexpected that the school was not the wolf school that he yearned for and was familiar with.It is a school of vipers that is on the verge of extinction, known for poisons, short swords, and assassinations in the future.

But opportunities wait for no one. Staying in this remote village, the speed of improving strength is undoubtedly unsatisfactory. Soon, you will face the invasion of the Nilfgaardian army, and there may be unknown monster attacks. This kind of fate is full of uncertainty. sex.

Following the veteran demon hunter Lei Suo, at least in the past two or three years, he can make rapid progress in strength and learn a lot of professional knowledge of demon hunters. If he can pass the green grass test, his strength will undergo earth-shaking changes .

What is the side effect of infertility?

No matter before crossing, or now, he has never considered this issue.

It didn't take much for Roy to persuade the old Moore couple. The two couples are not yet 40 years old, and they have longed for big cities. They don't have the old people's unwillingness to leave their hometowns, but they are a little nervous.

The promise of the witcher was a rare opportunity. The troublesome thing was that the old couple strongly opposed Roy leaving his side.

He is not yet 14 years old this year. Even if human children mature prematurely in backward societies, most boys at this age still stay with their parents and rely on their protection to survive.

Who wants to let a child go through life and death with a witcher?

Roy could only lie,

"Father, Susie. I followed Master Lesso, not fighting monsters with weapons as you imagined. I was just an assistant for Master Lesso, similar to being an apprentice with Uncle Fletcher before, but the work was a little different. Because demon hunters have no concept of money, they don’t know how to manage the commissions they get from completing commissions, and it often takes us a year to earn money in just a few days.”
