Chapter 12: Ring of Elements
The winter in Kaer Morhen is undisturbed by outsiders, and life is relatively peaceful, which is very suitable for concentrating on training.
After obtaining a method to improve his mutation level, Wayne became even more enthusiastic about Geralt's teachings.
Accompanied by White Wolf, a master of swordsmanship, Wayne took the silver sword and began to kill near Kaermohan.
His sword was fast and fierce, and many monsters suffered in order to obtain more materials for making potions.
Monsters that were relatively easy to deal with, such as water ghosts, Kikimo, evil ghosts, and Andraeger bugs, were attacked by Wayne every three days and were almost killed to extinction.
This made Geralt, who had been by his side, feel very strange. He didn't know why this young witcher was so persistent in collecting the materials needed to make potions. Could it be that he liked the taste of potions?
However, Wayne's crazy practice of brewing potions only lasted less than a month before he had to stop.
In this cold winter, both the spirits needed to brew potions and the herbs that grow all over the world are rare and expensive resources.
Such a large amount of consumption cannot be supported without prior preparation.
But even so, Wayne has gained a lot from this month of crazy medicine practice.
Ever since he learned to make witcher potions, he would drink at least three bottles of potions every day. On the one hand, he practiced his mutation skills, and on the other hand, he also allowed his body to adapt to the potions and enhance his poison resistance.
This month-long effort not only raised his mutation level by one level, but also gave him a new accessory skill.
Alchemy LV1: Potion effect +4%.
To achieve such results, the support of several demon hunters within the Wolf School is indispensable.
At dinner that day, in order to reward everyone, Wayne prepared another sumptuous table of delicious food.
There were smoked sausages, pickled salted fish, braised rabbit, grilled venison legs, delicious fish soup, and sweet wild vegetables found in the forest. There were ten dishes made from scratch.
Eating the soft white bread in his mouth, Lambert couldn't help but sigh:
"Ever since I left Kaer Morhen's castle at the beginning of the year, the wandering life outside is like shit, and I have been missing Wayne's cooking skills. ."
"Obviously it's just ordinary ingredients, but he can always make amazing flavors." "
Since then, I have been looking forward to the arrival of winter." "
It won't be long before I can get back to Kaer Morhen this year. It's half a month earlier than in previous years."
Eskel nodded when he heard this, and scooped himself a bowl of delicious fish soup from the plate. He drank half of the bowl in one gulp with enjoyment, and then said:
"Wei En's cooking skills are better than last year."
Geralt also enjoyed a braised rabbit leg and concentrated on eating without interrupting.
In the past month, spending every day with Wayne in the cold forest collecting herbs and killing monsters was no easy task.
However, the demon hunters of the Wolf School have always been extremely united. Although they have no blood relationship, they are more important than family members, and no one will be stingy about paying for their brothers.
Sitting at the head seat of the dining table, Vesemir, who was nearly three hundred years old, looked at the warm scene in front of him and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
Since the disintegration of the Demon Hunter Order, the life of a Demon Hunter has become increasingly difficult. Opportunities like this for everyone to share delicious food and have a good drink have become increasingly rare.
He coughed lightly, attracting the attention of several other people, and then said to Geralt:
"Since Wayne will leave Kaer Morhan after spring."
"Geralt, you take him there tomorrow. The ring of elements in the back mountain."
"Help him activate the badge of our Wolf School."
"For us demon hunters, magic badges are an indispensable tool." "It allows us to detect the magic fluctuations around us and prevent magic from blinding our eyes." Geralt had not yet reacted
. Behind the ring, Wayne's eyes lit up.
The Ring of Elements is a good thing. It has been almost a year and a half since he came to Kaer Morhen, and he almost forgot about it.
Anyone who has played games knows that the Ring of Elements can not only strengthen the witcher's sigil power and charge magic items, but in The Witcher 3, it can also allow the protagonist Geralt to gain a skill point.
I just don’t know if it has these wonderful uses in the real world?
Geralt heard this, picked up a glass of beer and drank it down. He shrugged nonchalantly and said,
"Leave it to me, Vesemir."
"This is not the first time I have done this."
The old demon hunter He hummed, suddenly thought of something, and added:
"By the way, you have to be careful about the group of trolls on the Troll Head."
"They seem to have had something happen to them recently, so try not to conflict with them.
" After finishing this, the old witcher turned to Wayne with a serious expression and said,
"And you, kid, I heard Geralt say that you have been drinking potions recently, even when you are not fighting."
" These things contain a lot of poison, and even if we are demon hunters, they will cause damage to our bodies." "
I don't know what you think, but for the sake of your body, you'd better stop this behavior."
When Wayne heard this, he originally wanted to explain a few words, but seeing the concerned expression on the old demon hunter's face, he could only nod his head and said, "I
understand, teacher, I will pay attention to it."
He decided to continue in the future. During the days of Kaer Morhen, reduce the amount of potions you drink. It just so happens that there are not many potions in reserve. If you drink slowly, you may be able to survive until spring.
After Vesemir's speech, the table became quiet again. Except for Lambert, the other people were not talkative people.
Moreover, the delicacies on the table were so tempting that no one had much intention to chat.
Early the next morning, Wayne, who was feeling a little excited, came to Geralt's room and called out to the white wolf who was still sleeping soundly.
He couldn't wait to see if the Ring of Elements would have any special effect on him.
If it can also add a skill point to him like in the Witcher 3 game, then in the future, searching for the rings of elements around the world will be a good way to increase his strength.
Geralt had a pretty good temper. After being woken up by someone, he cursed in a low voice, and then said:
"Little guy, you are too impatient."
"Didn't the old man teach you? The most important thing about a witcher is Just be patient and cautious."
"Most of those who are not careful enough will die in the monster's lair within a year of leaving the army."
Wayne smiled sheepishly, and said half-truthfully:
"I'm sorry. , Geralt, I'm just too interested in the Ring of Elements and Magic Badges." "
I've prepared a hearty breakfast for you." "
Let's finish it early and set off early, and we can still find time afterward. Go hunting in the forest and bring back some game."
