Chapter 176 An unexpected letter
(Considering the plot, I delayed it for a while. I will update one chapter at noon and two chapters in the afternoon.)
When Wayne held the little princess wrapped in curtains and walked out of the royal tomb in the sunshine. At that time, King Foltest and the two sorceresses beside him all came forward excitedly.
At this time, the king is no longer a powerful ruler, but like an ordinary father, an ordinary man who has lost his children and his most precious family, and then regained them.
With an excited expression, he looked at the girl in Wayne's arms. His hands were trembling a little, and his tone could no longer maintain his dignity. He asked eagerly: "How is
she, Witcher? Is this my daughter Yada?"
Wayne He handed the princess in his arms to Foltest's arms and watched His Majesty the King carefully hugging his daughter as if he were the most precious treasure. He thought for a few seconds before speaking. Said:
"The curse has been lifted temporarily, Your Majesty the King."
Foltest's hand holding his daughter trembled slightly, frowned, and asked Wayne with some anger and confusion:
"For the time being, you mean temporarily , what's going on, demon hunter?"
Wayne's expression remained unchanged and he said in a professional tone:
"Princess Yada slept in a sarcophagus for seven years, and then woke up as a vampire bird due to a curse."
" This evil curse has been rooted in her life and is basically impossible to be completely eliminated." "
However, Your Majesty the King, you can rest assured for the time being that the princess's curse has indeed been expelled at this time, as long as there is no intervention from other magical powers. , the princess can live like a normal girl."
"But as an evil force deeply rooted in her life, some of her characters or behaviors will be affected by this force, such as her love of eating raw meat, her wild and easy-going personality Anger, etc. In addition to requiring you to educate and correct more, you also need to pay attention to some conspirators or people with malicious intentions."
"Perhaps at some point, they will use this curse in the princess's body to turn her back into a vampire bird, which may cause an irreparable tragic accident." Wayne, who knew the future development, took the lead in giving
this His Majesty the King took a vaccination, then gave a slight salute and said:
"Your Majesty, please leave the remaining matters to the warlocks who are better at dealing with curses. This is not something we demon hunters are good at." But obviously
, , compared to the sorceress, the king in front of him obviously trusted the witcher more. He looked down at his daughter, and after thinking for dozens of seconds, he said: "Thank you for the reminder, witcher,
if my daughter in the future If I turn back into that kind of monster because of something, I hope you can come over as soon as possible and help me again." "
This is a father's request, not a king's."
Ding! [Removing the curse of the vampire bird] Master level, completed.
Obtained: 342 experience points, a master level treasure chest.
Ding! Trigger the chain mission, [Request from the king’s father! ], do you want to accept it?
…………
The matter of the vampire bird was solved very smoothly. Not only did it complete a master-level task, but it also obtained a master-level chain task. According to the experience from Borch last time, it usually looks like this. All kinds of chain tasks will reward ability points, which Wayne is looking forward to very much.
King Foltest was indeed a wise and generous ruler. The reward for this commission was given to him the day after Wayne lifted Princess Yada's curse.
Originally, in addition to the bonus of up to 3,000 orens, there was also a letter of canonization ceremony for the nobles. The respected Mr. Wayne could rise from a commoner to become a baron in the Kingdom of Temeria, and also receive a territory. . But unfortunately, our demon hunter did not have this ambition, nor did he want to be involved in the future war between the north and the south. So under his dissuasion, King Foltest increased the reward to five thousand orens and promised to I will remember this favor and help Wayne in the future.
At this point, the vampire bird incident was finally over for the time being. The king rescued his daughter and found the murderer. Wayne received the bonus and the king's promise.
Triss and Keira were also in a happy mood. Because of their performance, the two sorceresses gained the king's trust to a certain extent and were able to gain more rights as royal advisors.
That night, Triss came to Keira's mansion together at Keira's instigation, and they had another pleasant communication with Wayne.
After a night of fun, everyone's lives returned to peace. Calculating the time, it has been more than half a month since Wayne returned to the world of the witcher. According to the time flow of the two worlds, he and Wayne Manor's The six months agreed by Ford Butler is not far away.
But this time, his original plan was to let Berengar go to Middle-earth with him, so that the demon hunter could stay in that world, not only to help him manage Wayne Manor, but also to use both worlds. There is a time difference and the demon hunter apprentices are quickly trained there.
Unfortunately, Wayne's ancient blood is still at the primary level, and he cannot take anyone else with him through the world except himself and the equipment on his body.
Unless you use ability points to open a temporary space passage, otherwise, it will be impossible to bring Berengar to the Middle-earth world.
And ability points are such precious things that they cannot be wasted unless necessary. Therefore, after some thought, Wayne temporarily gave up the idea of taking people to Middle-earth and prepared to stay in Vizima. A few days later, he returned to Middle-earth again to continue his journey of honing his skills.
At this moment, a letter from another country was delivered to his home by the postman.
Wayne was surprised. Based on his acquaintances in this world, it was hard to imagine that anyone would send him a letter.
When he opened the envelope, he found that the sender was actually the famous white wolf Geralt, his good brother the demon hunter.
The content of the letter also surprised Wayne. It actually invited him to come to Sintra in early September to attend the Sintra Marriage Banquet and serve as a dinner party for the current Princess Pavetta of Sintra. Guard on top.
The wedding banquet hasn’t happened yet? He originally thought that this incident would happen in June or July, but unexpectedly, it actually happened in September.
But if you think about it carefully, this incident is not very unexpected. It seems that there was a conflict in the setting of Ciri's birth time in the original book and the game. If Ciri was born on May Day, the current Pa Princess Vita has probably been secretly hooking up with the hedgehog man for several months, and is probably pregnant with the child for a month or two.
Thinking of his agreement with Butler Ford, Wayne was hesitating whether to attend this banquet.
It was already mid-August, and there were probably less than twenty days left before Geralt's agreed time. At the speed of the magic flying carpet, if he really wanted to go to Sintra, it would only take two or three days. time.
However, considering that this wedding banquet is also a very important turning point in the plot of the entire Witcher series, according to the conventions of system tasks, I am afraid that this task should also be a master-level task.
After Wayne thought about it for a long time, he finally was reluctant to part with a master-level treasure chest and hundreds of experience points.
Prepare to take advantage of the fact that there is still enough time to return to Middle-earth briefly, make some arrangements, and then set off for Sintra.
Whether it’s the future Emperor of the South, Ciri’s mother, Princess Pavetta who seems to be a sorcerer, or many nobles at the wedding banquet, Queen Calanthe, it’s okay to take this opportunity to meet her. A good choice.
Moreover, the legendary tree spirit forest is also near Sintra. I wonder if I will have a chance to see the legendary tree spirit this time.
