"I still need some help from you? As long as it is within my ability, I will definitely help you."

Roy didn't expect that a commission that Edsberg had put aside just now would be effective at this time, but in fact he didn't spend much effort, it was just equivalent to sending a "courier".

"Mr. Sewell..."

"Don't, Roy, just call me by my name from now on, or you'll just look down on my brother!"

"Uh... Seville." Roy immediately corrected the address. Although he couldn't imagine how he could call a 70-year-old dwarf brother, the other party's words should be more polite.

"Do you have any warlocks you know? Live near Edsberg, preferably a sorceress who graduated from Arethusa College."

Hearing the words, the dwarf stroked his beard and thought for a moment,

"Sorry, Roy, as far as I know, no spellcaster lives near Edsberg. There is a black-haired sorceress at Vangerburg, but it's too far away."

"But why did you go to the sorceress?" said the dwarf. "If you believe me, you might as well tell the whole story, and there may be other ways to solve the problem. In this city, I don't brag, I have some energy. "

Roy thought about it and felt that it was all right.So he told about Toya from the mill outside the city.

The dwarf's face became very strange after hearing this, and he looked at the other party as if he was looking at a rare animal, "Roy, if I remember correctly, you are an apprentice demon hunter, and you will become a demon hunter in the future. Why do you want to help a country boy?" Ugly girl? Take pains to send her to Arethusa. They don't necessarily remember you after years of training."

"Just because you pity her?"

"Sevier, don't you think that there are some similarities between a witcher and a warlock... a miserable childhood, a life of helplessness, and no chance to choose life..." Roy said what was in his heart, "I think , she should have a chance to choose."

"I also hope that one day in the future, when I reach that embarrassment, someone will give me a chance..."

The dwarf was slightly moved after hearing this, and suddenly felt that the face of the human boy in front of him was not as handsome as the dwarf, but it was also quite pleasing to the eye, and he smiled heartily,

"Roy, you are such an interesting person. Ninety-nine percent of the demon hunters I know don't care about such nosy matters...but you just intervene."

"Just for what you said just now, I will help you. I will send a carriage and dwarf guards to escort that child to Shaned Island. Just like you said, give her a chance to choose her life! As for whether she can enter Ai Retusa, it's up to her own skill and luck."

"But it will take a few more days..." The dwarf stood on tiptoe with great effort, and put his arm around Roy's shoulders, "Little brother, the new year is coming, the coachman has the right to have a good year, right?"

"I hope that the group of people in the Revolutionary Army can stop and stop. They received the leader's body inexplicably, and I don't know if they will make any other big disturbances."

"Actually, apart from the corpse, I also left a letter to Ms. Kadell." Roy said, "The threatening letter written in the tone of the Sparrow Gang, I don't expect Kadell to be deceived, but at least it can divert attention and let The revolutionary army no longer blindly demonstrates to the Baron, so as not to be used by people with ulterior motives."

Chapter 31 Departure and Return

1260 11 Month 6 Day.

Roy was wearing a thick khaki cotton coat, sitting on the edge of the roof of Walls Tavern, with his feet dangling in the air, and a painting in his hands.

There are two smiling faces painted on it, Roy and Toya.

On November 11st, without telling the miller and his wife, he secretly took the girl to the big house of the dwarf wine merchant, and enjoyed a luxurious New Year's dinner together.

The scene at that time is especially vivid in my mind.

The two drank honey wine, sang a mess of songs, acted as models for a poor painter, and danced for most of the night with a group of bearded dwarves and men and women around the bonfire in the middle of the courtyard, hand in hand. "The Melting Pot Dance".

The next day, Toya woke up from her first hangover and was put on a carriage to Arethusa.

"Roy, when we get there, how should I contact you in the future?" Before leaving, the girl leaned out from the window of the carriage and grabbed his arm. Her small round face was about to cry, and her dark eyes Excitement, anxiety, and nostalgia flashed in it.

"The witcher has no fixed place." Roy patted the little girl's head and joked, "I will visit you in Arethusa in a few years, and I hope you can give me a performance." Perform real magic."

"Then it's settled!" The girl's voice was a little mischievous for the first time, "When I return to normal, if you don't come, I will go all over the world to catch you!"

……

Outside of memories, Roy put the portrait into the space and squeezed the silver necklace around his neck.

Not long ago, he completely finished the course at the Cadell House and bid farewell to Vivien, Tom and Cadell.The headmaster didn't know how to think about it. The revolutionary army has completely disappeared recently.Perhaps it was the chief's body that frightened some of them.

Edsberg's New Year was peaceful, without any parades, demonstrations, or street fights.

The room at the mill was returned by Roy. He abducted the daughter of the miller and his wife, but did not leave a dime to them as punishment for their abuse of their daughter.If the two want to settle accounts with him, then just come, as long as they can find it.

Roy didn't plan to continue the work in the market. The learning of common characters was over. He had mastered enough vocabulary to understand the contents of the witcher's notes. He was going to concentrate on conquering the potion formula above.

He got off the rooftop and entered the lobby of the tavern, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity welling up in his heart.

……

The New Year has passed, but the carnival atmosphere in the tavern continues.

Leaning against the wall, bards in pointed shoes and striped bodysuits strummed the lute and played melodious melodies.

On the dance floor, a group of stout men, holding cups of beer with white foam in their hands, twisted their bodies wantonly in tune with the music.

Hop splashes, light and shadow intertwined, several women with heavy make-up wearing corsets, revealing a large piece of white skin, holding up their bloated tutu skirts, occasionally scolding a few innocuous words half-annoyed and half-joyed during the men's teasing , then stretched out seductive fingers with a charming smile.

In the corner of this bustling tavern, there was an out of place figure. The wine tables of the four people in front of them were filled with a dozen glasses full of wine of different colors, but he was the only one who raised the glass.

Under Lei Suo's shiny bald head, an old-fashioned face made him look like he was in a claustrophobic room. His burly figure with a long sword on his back was like a rock, with a coldness that no one should enter.

"Drinking alone here? Let me accompany you..." Amidst the tender laughter, a moving body was attached to the man's right arm.

Lei Suo glanced at the woman sideways, his familiar smile thawed his expression slightly, "Sorry, I'm not in the mood today, I'll take care of your business next time..."

"You are so ruthless, you have become so raw after seeing each other for more than a month... I still remember your strong body."

"Hee hee, why are your arms so stiff, relax and leave everything to me..."

The woman put her head on his shoulder with a sweet smile, and stretched her neck suddenly. She noticed the bloodstains on the other's leather armor that had dried up for a long time, but still gave off a strange smell.

But all witchers are like this, and so are women.

Looking down, there was a huge bulging package on the ground of the demon hunter's right hand, which seemed to be about to crack. It seemed that a trace of scarlet wetness could be seen on the blue surface, so he asked curiously,

"What's that?" He stretched out his hand towards the package as he spoke, but he was firmly controlled by another muscular arm as soon as he stretched halfway.

"Woman, control your curiosity, don't ask what you shouldn't ask."

Lei Suo's tone was still calm, but the strange warning in his eyes made the woman feel like a mouse seeing a cat, her delicate body trembled, and she got up anxiously.

She pursed her lips, and Youzi gave the witcher a gouged look unwillingly, "I don't recognize anyone when I put on my pants, don't ask me to accompany you next time! Hmph!"

After finishing speaking, he fled into the dance floor and laughed with other men.

Lei Suo is not annoyed either, women will always be just passers-by and spices in his life.

He suddenly felt something in his heart, and his amber pupils crossed the dance floor, and instantly collided with the opposite gaze.

"Little ghost, haven't we seen each other for a year? How did you grow up so fast?" The witcher looked at the young man who was coming, and gestured to his chin with his thick palm.His keen perception told him that a great change had taken place in the child in front of him.His body has changed from being thin and thin at the beginning to being well-proportioned and full of vigor, and his eyes are black and bright, his face is ruddy, and his spirit is obviously higher than before.

Ordinary people need half a year to a year of uninterrupted exercise to produce such a huge change in their physical fitness.As for the young man in front of him, it has been less than two months since he left Kaye Village.

"I remember not seeing each other for more than two years, one month and two years?" Roy sat down beside Lei Suo, picked up a glass of sweet and sour fruit wine, and took two sips. "How about it, I have lived alone in Edsberg for so long, have I passed your test?"

"You can live a good life alone." The witcher nodded.

Roy cast his eyes on the strange package that the woman had noticed before, his nose twitched like a hound,

"Abandon me for more than a month for this thing?"

"Guess what's inside?"

There was a test light in Lei Suo's eyes.

"Although you have handled it properly and removed most of the peculiar smell. But I can't hide the fishy smell. The package contains... um... the organs and tissues of monsters, right?"

Lei Suo directly threw the package over. Roy caught the package in a hurry and opened a seam. His arm trembled and he almost dropped the package on the ground——

The first thing that catches the eye is a big eyeball, the size of a fist, and the surface has been treated to be smooth and dry. When you reach out to touch the back of the eyeball, you can also feel strips of slender scarlet nerves and capillaries like sandworms.

Roy looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he stuffed his eyeballs in, and carefully took out a yellow and fluffy animal claw from the package. There was a flexible pad like a feline at the bottom of the animal claw. Protruding from the front end are three sharp toes, shaped like hooks, black in color, hard to the touch, and as long as a human's outstretched palm.

Roy could almost imagine how the claws could easily cut through the leather armor of the human body and cut out the internal organs.

In addition to the eyeballs and claws, there is also an oval heart in the package, and a bloody animal head covered with a brown lion's mane and long beak.

"Griffon beast..."

The huge package is stuffed with the most valuable body tissues of the Griffin beast.

Roy's lips moved slightly,

"It took more than a month to hunt and kill a griffin beast? Is it for me to prepare the predrug?"

He was a little moved, this guy actually ran to single out the Griffin beast.

A monster like a griffin is proud, tough, has a keen sense of smell, and has a strong body. Its claws and beak are comparable to steel, and it has no obvious weaknesses.Deadly danger to any witcher.

Roy felt a little regretful, not to mention participating in it personally, if he could witness the battle up close, it would be a valuable experience.

"Are you hurt?"

"Although the process has twists and turns, the result is perfect." Lei Suo shook his head, "Let's go, I'll teach you how to disassemble this pile of materials, and let's see if you've been lazy recently."

Chapter 32 Potions

The demon hunter booked a room in the tavern first, and after going upstairs to put away his luggage, he processed the tissue materials of the griffin a little bit.

Then he began to ask about Roy's recent encounters in Edsberg, who focused on the "child hunter ghost" encountered under the horn tree of Kadell's house.

"You're lucky. That thing is about the same as a water ghost in terms of combat effectiveness and danger. It's just right for a novice like you to practice." Lei Suo said in a deep voice, "Just avoid its fangs and claws, use the flame and salt well, and you'll be able to It can be easily eliminated. Although it is a bit wasteful to use Dancing Star on it, but if you survive and it dies, it is worth the money."

"Little ghost, you did a great job with the Cadell House." Reso praised sincerely. He was not referring to Roy's fighting performance under the tree hole, but the process of analyzing doubts and discovering clues throughout the whole incident.

Demon hunters who can use their brains live longer than those who can only use force.

Next, Roy showed the demon hunter the lump of yellow cheese-like vomit that he accidentally brought out.

The witcher analyzed it from all aspects of taste and appearance, and said in admiration, "Child hunter ghosts are very rare. Among the people I know, only Oakes and Serrit hunted one more than 50 years ago, but unfortunately, They didn't get enough fresh vomit."

He frowned, "The specific ingredients are unknown, but I can feel that after taking it, the flow of magic power in the body is greatly hindered, and even a seal cannot be released."

"Too little inventory should not be able to achieve the original 'stripping' effect, but it at least has the effect of blocking magic gold, which can restrain spellcasters and monsters that rely on spells to a certain extent... maybe some warlocks will buy this at a high price Something. This is your trophy, keep it away." The witcher handed the thing back, "It's best to store it in an earthen pot, and when it's not so fresh, the effect will be greatly reduced."

Roy's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he felt regretful for a moment, why didn't he make up his mind to bring out all the "vomit" in the first place.

But he doesn't need to use an earthen jar to preserve it, he has a more perfect preservation method - throwing it into space.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and the demon hunter took him to find an open space outside the city, and checked his crossbow shooting skills and herbal medicine knowledge.

Roy has already unlocked the crossbow specialization Lv1, and the training has never stopped every night. Whether it is shooting posture, aim, or reaction speed, compared to his short training time, he is impeccable. satisfy.

As for the knowledge of herbal medicine, in addition to being engraved into the brain by the witcher's usage and teaching more than 50 kinds of herbs along the way, Roy's knowledge has expanded during the time he helped the liar Tross run the herbal medicine stall in the market. Not a lot.Every day, you can come into contact with common plants such as sage, calendula, belladonna, and datura, and also see rare herbs such as ghost needles, blood moss, cascara, and quatrefoil.

At present, Roy has mastered the growth environment, medicinal properties, and appearance characteristics of more than [-] kinds of herbs.This also left Lei Suo speechless.

His theoretical foundations in herbalism are solid enough that it's time to put them into practice.

"You said that you have spent most of the time in school learning common characters?" Lei Suo touched his bald head, "I didn't think carefully and forgot your shortcomings in this area, since you haven't started researching yet The potion on the note."

"That's just right, I'll teach you step by step. Anyway, the potions and alchemy bombs on my body are all exhausted, so I need to make some supplementary stocks."

"By the way, there is also the prodrug of the green herbal potion. This is a troublesome job. You will help me when the time comes."

……

Pharmacy is a branch of alchemy.

The potions, decoctions, sword oils, and alchemy bombs produced by alchemy all require magic power to coordinate, and some of them can only be used by demon hunters.And the products of pharmacy can be refined and consumed by ordinary people.

Virtual alchemy, you only need to collect all the materials and press a button, and the finished product will appear in the bag.But unfortunately, there is no such beauty in the real world.

Alchemy is an extremely complex technology, and its branch of pharmacy is not simple either.It involves materials, tools, instruments and techniques.The materials are further divided into base medicine, main medicine, auxiliary medicine, neutralizing agent and so on.

The refining tools and instruments are more complex, and all these combined can be called an alchemy platform.

……

Lei Suo spent a day buying some herbs, bottles and jars in Edsberg, rented a room, and transformed it into an alchemy room.

After Roy entered the alchemy room to visit, he was stunned.

How is this any different than a kitchen? !

The first thing that catches the eye is the stove with a human blower in the middle, and a striking large iron pot on the stove.

In front of the iron pot, near the operator's waist, there are stone mortars, sand bowls, plates, and a gooseneck still on a small stove.

A clock is hung on the top floor on the right hand side, which is used to record the cooking time of herbs. Next to the clock are various dried herbs needed for refining medicine.

On the second floor on the right hand side, there is a pestle for pounding medicine, which can be crushed with the stone mortar in the middle.

On the left hand side, across the blower pull rope that can heat the large central iron pot, there are pots filled with dwarven spirits, water, oil, and other liquids on the top floor. Different potions are added with different liquids as the base for boiling.

On the second floor on the left, there are containers used to hold potions and potions, and there are several sizes of different sizes.
