The Witcher: Darkness Falls

"You mean, you want to become a wizard?" After Visenna came back, she looked at Leon in surprise, "Can I ask why?"

Leon thought for a moment and said, "Self-protection."

Visenna looked at Leon in confusion at first, then she suddenly realized something as if she had thought of something.

She remembered when she first found Leon, he was lying stiffly in the snow with a hideous wound on his side.

Anyone else would have died long ago. The fact that Leon survived only shows that fate’s favor far outweighs the witcher’s physique.

“I never told you how I got hurt because you never asked. Maybe it’s not important to you.” Leon said calmly, “But I can feel that I have been caught in a conspiracy, and not just me, but all the demon hunters.”

He recalled fighting McLaren, who in the end wanted his mutation potion formula.

It seems that the so-called blessing of the True God of the True God Church is not as simple as it seems. There are also certain requirements on the physical fitness of those who receive the blessing of the True God.

The physical fitness of demon hunters is well known to be strong, and can be obtained through mutation.

McLaren didn't know that Leon was a demon hunter from the Cat School, otherwise he wouldn't have thought about his mutation potion formula, but would have killed him directly.

Since he knew that the Demon Hunter had a mutation formula, he must also be aware that the Cat School's mutation potion formula had problems and would drive people crazy.

The complete formula for the mutation potion is only available in Kaer Moran, which is the only remaining base of the Witchers and the territory of the Wolf School. It is something that everyone knows.

If the True God Cult wants to mutate the potion formula, it will have to go through Kaer Morhen.

As for obtaining it from other demon hunters, how many demon hunters are there in this world?

No one knows.

And there is a high probability that there will be no mutant potion formulas among the demon hunters around the world who are involved in these activities.

Demon hunters need to be trained from a young age, and people have never seen a demon hunter taking a child with him when going out on a mission.

Because the mission is too dangerous, the demon hunter is not a babysitter and cannot take care of children.

Therefore, if they want the formula for the mutant potion, the Cult of the True God will most likely start from Kaer Morhen, from the legendary demon hunter.

Lyon's ultimate goal is Kaer Morhen, but no one knows what the current situation in Kaer Morhen is.

He had no idea whether the True God Church was planning to seize the property by force or negotiate.

However, judging from the fact that the other party has already started releasing monsters into Nilfgaard, they must have made some plans. Even if they haven't obtained the formula for the mutation potion yet, they will get it soon.

"What's going on? Does it involve all the witchers?" Visenna's expression changed, and she concealed the worry in her eyes very well.

"I just have a suspicion. The thing is..." Leon simply recounted how he was injured and also expressed his own guess.

Regarding the speculation that the True God Church released monsters to gain faith.

He didn't know what the True God Church wanted to do, but the mere fact of releasing monsters was not a good thing for most people.

Of course, it was a good thing for him, but the situation was different now that the other party wanted to kill him.

"Create panic and gather believers...the Church of Eternal Fire." Visenna murmured.

Everything that the True God Church does is too similar to what the Eternal Fire did more than two hundred years ago.

Create panic, gather believers, intensify conflicts, and massacre wizards and humanoids.

In the end, all this gradually subsided as the Nilfgaard Empire signed a ceasefire agreement with the northern countries.

Then, the Church of Eternal Fire also weakened with the arrival of peace. Currently, only the northern countries may still have active followers of the Church of Eternal Fire.

"Could it be that the Eternal Fire has rekindled?" Visenna pondered.

She was a druid who had escaped the Eternal Fire and the persecution of wizards in the northern kingdoms.

But even so, she spent a dark time in fear.

One of the main reasons why she went south to the Nilfgaard Empire was to avoid the persecution of the Eternal Fire.

The Nilfgaard Empire was the first to provoke the war, resulting in the deaths of a large number of civilians, and many other ethnic groups also lost their lives.

This was an unforgivable sin for the Druids, but their faith prevented them from taking revenge on the Nilfgaardian Empire.

What's more, the Nilfgaard Empire's army was unstoppable at the time. Even if all the druids united, it would be useless. Instead, it would give them an excuse to massacre the druids.

Therefore, in the minds of the druids, the Nilfgaard Empire is a symbol of barbarity and violence, and they look down on Nilfgaard.

However, when the northern countries persecuted the temple clergy and wizards under the instigation of the Eternal Fire, the barbaric and violent Nilfgaard Empire became the safest place.

During this period, wizards and landless humanoids migrated south in large numbers, seeking refuge.

"Visena?" Seeing that Visena was distracted, Leon called out softly.

"Oh, sorry." Visenna came back to her senses. She took a deep breath and said, "No matter what the True God Church wants to do, releasing a large number of monsters is undoubtedly the greatest destruction to nature!"

She looked at Leon and said, “Condensing the demon seed is actually a kind of mutation that wizards make to their own bodies, but the direction of mutation is different from that of demon hunters.

The demon hunters have their bodies changed due to the mutagenic potion, and I have never seen a demon hunter become a wizard.

However, you are a demon hunter of the cat school, and your mutation is not complete.

Leon, I can’t guarantee that you can succeed…”

Leon frowned slightly.

But that's not what Stregobor said.

Stregobor wanted to take him in as a student, and he could sense his eagerness.

Judging from Stregobor's tone, it seemed that he didn't care about his mutation.

"What kind of transformation does one have to go through to become a wizard?" Leon asked.

Visenna hesitated for a moment and said, "I... have not experienced the transformation of a wizard. I am a druid. I don't have any demon seeds in my body. I only have the core of nature. This was condensed naturally when I was practicing with my teacher."

Leon sighed. In that case, he would have to find another way to become a wizard.

But it would definitely not be possible to find Stregobor, as he is a member of the Wizarding Guild and his status might not be low. With his timid personality, it is impossible for him to take the risk for him.

"However, I do know one thing. The condensation of demon seeds is related to mental strength. This is why wizards must screen for qualifications. In fact, they are screening people who are born with higher mental strength." Visenna suddenly said, "The remaining mutation conflicts are also possible."

Leon thought about it.

Look for someone else. Wizards are hard to find in this world, and even if he finds one, no one will be willing to help.

Unless he is willing to sign a soul contract.

After thinking about it, Lyon felt that it would be okay to give it a try, since he had no other choice anyway.

"Okay, let's give it a try."
