From Witcher to Lord of the Empire

Lann didn't care much about the warlock named "Riens". After all, if he could do such a hasty thing as hiring seven or eight Redanian soldiers to trouble him, one can imagine the opponent's pattern.

It's just that although Lan didn't want to be a thief himself, he didn't even want to guard against thieves for a thousand days. If this kind of dark person allowed him to continue wandering, it might ruin his big business at certain critical moments.

Since Dijkstra "kindly" gave him the information, he had to use it.

Anyway, I have long wanted to meet the famous poet Dandelion. This person's name has appeared many times but he has not been able to face him. Xia Ni seems to know him, and should be able to get in touch with him through this line.

At this moment, the freshman medical student was dissecting the dragonfly monster with his attendants, and Lan just happened to go to see their progress.

All the way to the door of the dissecting room, Lan heard a strange voice from inside:

"This is a precious creature that has never appeared before, and it is an excellent sample. I will not allow you to treat him in such a rude way!"

When Lan looked over, he saw a thin man being pressed against the wall by House, dancing with his arms and legs.

Xia Ni panicked and wanted to persuade House to let go of that thin man, but she was also concerned about the relationship between herself and Lane, so she was in a dilemma for a while.

The thin man was dressed like a bachelor, with a round brass brooch pinned to him. The pin on the brooch had apparently been lost, and had been replaced by a bent tack. Even though his feet were off the ground at this moment, he still shouted:

"This is a blasphemy against a brand new species! It should be protected instead of being brutally killed by you. Now that this is the case, it should be protected as a specimen for future generations to study and research, instead of being treated so brutally by you !"

House didn't seem to know how to deal with such a person, but he was sure to press against the wall and wait for Lan to come back.

The attendant said coldly: "This is Earl Lannister's booty, and it is the Earl's private property. It is not up to you to decide how to deal with it. If you continue to speak out, I may hurt you."

At this moment, because of the yelling of this skinny man, many students and disturbed instructors had gathered around the dissecting room. Lane faintly heard them calling the lifted man inside "Mentor Linus Peet".

The students seemed very angry when they saw that the instructor of Niubao was treated rudely, and wanted to come forward to discuss together, but they were stopped by experienced teachers one after another. In the end, a man dressed as a doctor whose height only reached the waist of ordinary people stepped out from the crowd, and came out and shouted at the people inside:

"Peter, don't be ashamed! That corpse is someone else's property. Even if you want it, you have to discuss the procurement process with him instead of messing around here!"

The person who spoke was short, but his hands and feet were not as thick as Zoltan's and the others, so he was obviously not a dwarf; but his body proportions looked much more normal than dwarves among humans.

He was shoeless and his feet were covered in curly hair. These appearance features show the identity of his humanoid race - halfling.

Niubao is indeed a tolerant place. This halfling was dressed as a teacher, and the students made way for him when he came out. Obviously, he was respected because of his knowledge. He anxiously wanted to enter the house, but was firmly stopped by Levin who was guarding the door.

"Van der Beek, I will not give them money!" Linus Pete was still stubborn, "It is because of the money transaction that they lead to unrestrained hunting of unnecessary prey, which in turn leads to the extinction of rare species !"

The halfling was so pissed off by this theory, he spouted obscenities continuously while jumping, and the students around him were used to his behavior. The halfling knew that his colleagues were being unreasonable, but he couldn't ignore it, so he could only run around in a hurry.

Hearing this, one can almost understand the situation on the scene. This is a farce, and Lane does not intend to let it continue to waste his time.

"I don't know who you are, but the 'cherished species' you mentioned now has more than one undigested human corpse in its stomach, and among them are the Redanian soldiers who protect you."

Lane pushed through the crowd, his strength for such a thing was easy. And as he spoke, the students who were watching from the side also focused their eyes on him.

"Lord Earl." Levin saluted and opened the door for Lane.

Maybe it was because Lan looked like someone of the same age, and his appearance was so good, the angry eyes of the students who were watching suddenly dissipated most of them. And when the halfling saw the true master coming, he also hurriedly changed his target.

"This...Mr. Earl?" The halfling introduced himself, "I am Milo Van der Beek, the tutor of the master of medicine in Niubao, can I trouble you to let your soldiers take Pete, that is, the one who speaks out? Idiot - put it down first?"

"I have always respected intellectuals, especially high-level intellectuals who are willing to devote themselves to education." Lane nodded to the halfling Milo, "I am Lannister Ray Allen, Earl of Cintra .”

Then he strode into the dissection room and looked at the undamaged dragonfly monster. It was obvious that Pete had heard that a creature he had never seen had come before the dissection began, and he had been making such a fuss for so long.

He motioned House to put him down, and said, "There have long been rumors in the Delta that there are man-eating monsters in the water. Before us, I don't know if the 'rare animal' you mentioned has eaten people; and if we don't take action, it will After that, I don’t know how many people will eat.”

The little Potter rubbed his tingling and painful wrists, and seemed to feel that he was fearless in the cow castle, but he continued to refute: "Your view is unscientific. You are too emotional and subjective. Nature decides Its own laws govern, cruel and ruthless as they are, they do not need to be modified by man. This is a struggle for survival! No matter what excuses humans have, they cannot justify the extinction of species, even if they are predators!"

The halfling Milo gestured frantically to the little Pete, but he still couldn't stop him from saying this. He was about to jump up to reprimand Pete and pull him away, but was stopped by Lane.

Lan En said coldly: "The northern kingdom has consumed so much educational resources to make you a mentor, but it's not for you to come to this kind of research conclusion that throws human beings back to the bottom of the ecological niche. Protect your mates and your family, and you don't seem to know it."

"I was able to get the degree and status I have today because of my own efforts..."

The obsessed biologist wanted to refute, but Lan turned around and dragged the chin of the dragonfly monster's corpse to lift up the four-meter-long monster.

Under the action of the sudden burst of force, the dozens of pincer feet with barbs and the two mandibles opened their teeth and claws together. Lan made a gesture to throw the huge corpse at Pete, but relying on the huge muscle strength to let him The monster's corpse made it stop in front of the opponent's two punches.

The dizzying stench and the ferocious face that seemed to come alive occupied Pete's entire sight. He heard Lan's cold voice: "Now it's going to eat you, how do you feel? You want to blame the dragonfly Does the struggle for existence cost one's own life?"

The thin biology tutor was trembling with fright, and suddenly rolled his eyes and passed out. His student exclaimed outside the door, but he hesitated not to enter the door.

Lann waved his hand to signal House to drag him out. He respected knowledge, but he didn't have the slightest affection for such obsessed extremists.

He turned to look at the halfling Milo, who was also apologizing to him at the moment: "I'm sorry for giving you a bad impression of Bullburg, Mr. Lannister."

Lan shook his head: "I respect knowledge and I am eager for knowledge, but I think that all science and knowledge should be aimed at benefiting the people."

"Me too." Halfling Milo said. He glanced at the corpse of the dragonfly with regret, and said to Lan, "Please believe that people like him are still a minority in Oxburg. The dissecting room can be used until tomorrow. No one will bother you before this."

Lan noticed Milo's gaze, but he could tell that the regret was not that of the biologist Pete, but that of Xia Ni—the regret of not being able to dissect it himself.

Lan En had a flash of inspiration and suddenly felt that this was a rare opportunity.

"Mr. Milo van der Beek? I wonder if it's possible to speak to you alone?"

The halfling Milo looked at Lann's outstretched hand, hesitated for a moment and shook it out of politeness: "I still have class later."

"I can donate the dragonfly monster's body to Niubao. I'm very happy to contribute a small amount to the cause of scientific research." Lan En finished speaking and pointed to Xia Ni, "Just let this little girl participate, after all I promised her to let her do the autopsy."

Milo's eyes lit up immediately after hearing Lann's words: "You can call me 'Rust', that's the nickname my partner gave me."

It is the first time that the dragonfly corpse has appeared in the biological world, and it is such a complete biological sample. This is a huge temptation for any scholar who has studied biology. Even many students of humanities and social sciences have come to join in the fun.

Obviously, Milo couldn't get rid of this temptation, and he couldn't wait to use his knife on Dragonfly.

But after receiving the "donation" from others, his natural way will definitely have to pay the corresponding price. He had no reason to refuse Lane's idea of ​​having a good talk.

The dissection room is really not a place to talk about things, so at Lane's invitation, Xia Ni and "Rust" Milo went to Lane's residence in Niubao. This is a suite that can be used as a living room.
