Chapter 152: The Sword of Victory and Parting ways
to return to Vizima City.
Although the king's reward has not yet been fulfilled, Wayne has already taken out three thousand orens from his treasury in advance.
Five hundred orens were given to all fellow demon hunters, including Vesemir and Geralt, as rewards for this commission.
Except for the old demon hunter Vesemir who refused to accept it, the other demon hunter brothers were not polite to Wayne. They accepted this huge sum of money with a mocking tone as if they were beating up a rich man.
And Wayne was not used to Vesemir. Not only did he forcefully give the old man the five hundred orens, but he also forced himself to give the old man a huge sum of one thousand orens under the pretext of repairing Kaer Morhen Castle.
In his system warehouse, there are still two master-level treasure boxes and dozens of ordinary-level treasure boxes. If these treasure boxes are opened, at least several thousand orens will be obtained. Even without the reward given by the king, he You can't lose much money.
In short, Mr. Wayne is not short of money.
The demon hunters who come here specifically to help Wayne are all relatives and friends who treat each other sincerely and do not need too many polite words.
On the second day after returning to Vizima, after Wayne personally cooked and made a feast that everyone would savor, his fellow demon hunters also left Vizima one after another. Ma, they went their separate ways and went to their respective designated locations to carry out this year's mission.
Only Berengar and Geralt, who was waiting for Yennefer, remained.
As for the sorceresses, Keira and Yennefer both needed a period of rest due to excessive mana consumption.
And poor Triss was even worse. Because of the mental impact of the evil god, her body suffered a backlash from magic. Not only did she suffer a lot of trauma, she was also unable to take magic potions to help her body recover because of her magic-sensitive constitution. .
In desperation, she could only take a temporary leave from King Foltest, suspending her work as a royal advisor.
When Wayne went to see Mute, the red-haired beauty was feeling quite depressed, considering that this time Mute was seriously injured while on a mission to help him.
Wayne felt a little guilty, so he simply lived in Tris's home for a while, cooking delicious food for her every day, speaking sweet words, caring for her carefully, and using his body to warm the sorceress's injured heart.
In order to repay the help given to him by the sorceresses, Wayne also specially took out the batch of magic manuscripts found in the underground ruins of the Willen elves last time, and shared the knowledge in them, except for the witcher equipment, with the three. A sorceress.
This private note from a magician more than a hundred years ago was immediately appreciated by the three sorceresses. They bluntly said that this was very expensive magic knowledge and was very helpful to them. It was enough. Repay this help.
Triss finally found something to do to kill time while she was recovering from her injuries.
This also made Wayne quietly breathe a sigh of relief. He didn't like to owe others favors. He must repay kindness and revenge. This is his style of dealing with things.
In the following March, Wayne did not receive any more difficult tasks. He brought Lambert and Eskel back, but did not take away the hundreds of kilograms of dried salted fish that he donated to Meili. The Temple of Terry was given to the poor and orphans in need of food.
In addition to completing daily tasks and waiting for the lucky day in March, what he did the most on weekdays was to become familiar with the Sword of Victory given to him by the goddess Lilith.
This is a two-handed sword with a body and hilt, which is close to 1.3 meters. It weighs about 20 kilograms. It is silver-white with golden patterned handguards. The hilt and scabbard are both strange blue. Metal forging.
According to the information Lilith told him, although the Sword of Oath of Victory cannot be said to cut iron like clay, it is sharper than an ordinary sword and is extremely strong. It is difficult for any weapon to cause damage to it.
Moreover, this weapon has a powerful ability. Whenever its holder uses it to kill evil monsters, the sword will be strengthened and become more powerful, and it will also store a trace of sacred magic power.
And when the number of monsters it kills reaches a certain limit, it can use a powerful sacred magic attack, swinging a huge light blade several meters long, or even ten meters long, causing devastating damage to the enemy. blow.
As long as it stores enough power, even a powerful evil dragon may be cut in half by the sword of victory.
Moreover, this sword that promises victory also comes with a powerful magic item, which is the scabbard of this sword.
This gorgeous scabbard made entirely of blue and gold metal also has a name of its own, called Avalon.
Due to long-term infiltration of the sacred magic within the Sword of Oath of Victory, this scabbard named Avalon can cast a strong magical shield to protect its owner from any attack for a period of time.
Of course, this absolute protective shield can only last for about one minute, and it will take nearly a month to recover after each use. As for the description of being protected from any harm, it is also an exaggeration. Any magic shield has its limit, and it is impossible to protect against all attacks. It is just that the upper limit of Avalon's defense is high enough.
There is no doubt that the Sword of Victory, combined with the scabbard of Avalon, and the sword given to him by the Lady of the Lake, can not only exert great strength in daily battles, but also be able to strike at critical moments. To the final word, and the effect of saving lives.
It is definitely a rare artifact sword in the world of witchers. As expected, he worked so hard to please this goddess, and even sold his beauty and offered his body in the end.
Thinking of the wonderful taste of Goddess Lilith, Wayne's heart was filled with excitement. He decided that as long as he had time in the future, he would learn and exchange new postures with the goddess every month. This is not because Mr. Wayne is lustful. It is definitely not the case. .
His main purpose is to improve his newly acquired skills and receive divine blessings.
This skill is too powerful. Abnormal state resistance corresponds to his body, mental resistance and soul resistance correspond to his spirit and soul.
As long as the skill level of this divine blessing is high enough, whether it is spiritual attack, soul curse, or frost, thunder and lightning, fire, chopping, puncture, or bleeding.
No matter what kind of attack it is, the damage caused to him will be greatly reduced, and it will even reach the point where he will become immortal and invulnerable to all things. It can be called the strongest defensive passive skill.
As for the final effect of the skill, such as the bonus charm attribute, Wayne understood that it was probably the instinctive worship, love, admiration or fear of the gods by the creatures in the world.
Charm is also an extremely powerful attribute. Whether you are getting along with people, animals, or even monsters, magic elements, and the laws of heaven and earth, being able to gain the favor of others is a powerful advantage.
Although he has not yet figured out the specific role of the charm attribute, it is obviously meaningful to be able to appear in the skill of divine blessing.
Time flies and it’s late March.
This morning, Wayne gently held Triss aside who was sleeping heavily on top of him.
He habitually reached for the silver thirty-six-sided dice placed on the bedside table, tossed it casually, and unexpectedly hit thirty-six points.
Wayne was so happy that he tossed five times in a row, and the result was above 30 points each time. This performance made him immediately understand that the lucky day in March had arrived.
For him, Lucky Day, also known as Unboxing Day, is almost the most important time of every month.
Compared with other months, this lucky day is particularly important.
Because master-level tasks are rare, there are two master-level treasure chests in his system, waiting for him to win the prize.
Wayne put on his clothes, turned back and patted Triss's flawless PP, and whispered in his ear:
"Dear Triss, I have something to go home for today, so you don't have to wait for me to eat at noon. "
After hearing this, Triss woke up from her sleep, subconsciously reached out and groped Wayne's body a few times, then giggled, opened her eyes, looked at Wayne with charming eyes, and said:
"Aren't you going to do morning exercises today?"
Feeling Triss's somewhat cold fingers, Wayne shivered subconsciously. He looked at the sun that had just risen outside the window, sighed in his heart, cursed the little goblin in his mind, and then put on his clothes again. He took off his good clothes again and said to the sorceress:
"Okay, dear Triss, since you are not afraid."
"It doesn't matter if I go out later."
A few hours later, when Wayne left When he returned to Triss's mansion, he still clearly remembered Yennefer's playful smile when he went out.
Unfortunately, this is the goddess of good brother Geralt, and there is no way he can attack Yennefer.
With this thought in mind, Wayne closed the door to his room and followed his usual routine of bathing and changing clothes, burning incense and lighting a fire, setting up a simple altar, sitting cross-legged on the ground, praying to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, and then entered meditation mode. .
The treasure chest is open!
