Chapter 171 House also has unique skills
[Day 26.
The subject has now experienced sharp objects, poison, fire, freezing, starvation, and dehydration, but even so his body continues to function. Not only can he eat, drink, and move around a room alone, but he can also speak simple words (" Please”, “Drink water”, “Do no harm”, “Stop”).
Conclusion: As I suspected, witchers are a great collection of energy! If there is a demon trapped in such a sophisticated body, he will definitely be reincarnated as the God of Death, and everything is under my control! That would be the greatest individual that has ever existed.
This is truly a great moment for science!
It's time to start chanting the incantation, and then I'll record the experimental data. 】
"The experiment log ends here. It seems that the warlock failed to record the subsequent experimental data. This is a good thing."
After saying this, Lan fell into deep thought.
He shifted his body and looked thoughtfully at the black cat statue where the Cat sent the witchers to kneel and pray.
So, is the current state of the cat-sect demon hunter possessed by a demon?
If this is really the case, maybe things will turn around and the cat-sect demon hunter can really be saved by himself.
"Human experimentation and summoning magic are all things that have been banned by the order of the Warlock Brotherhood for hundreds of years." Triss said in disgust, "This Irenius died too cheaply." After spitting on the cruel experimenter
, The sorceress gave another professional opinion: "Lan, if the demon hunter is possessed by a demon, it will be very difficult to handle. There is a reason why summoning magic is classified as a forbidden art. Whether it is casting Either the curse or the undoing of the curse will bring a huge price. Some scholars even think that it involves fate."
Lann shook his head: "If it is a demon, it would be simple..."
Lann rummaged on the table for a moment and found Got a cat-headed badge.
Seeing Lan's confident statement, Triss frowned secretly. However, she did not directly refute Lann's idea, but decided in her heart that she must be present when the other party dealt with this unknown cat-sect demon hunter.
After that, the two spent almost an hour sorting out the laboratory, mainly Triss identifying the experimental data, hoping to help Mossack and Kel Siren's research.
When they left, it happened that the sky was white.
Patrolling guards spotted the classic pairing of witcher and sorceress.
But they immediately recognized the lion emblem on Lann's chest. Apparently Chapelle had informed these patrolling soldiers in advance.
The security officers of the Eternal Fire do not need to respect Lann due to their status, but even if these guards are believers, they cannot change the concept engraved in their bones, and they can't help but be polite when talking to Lann.
"Is this Earl Lannister?"
Lann nodded: "Go and talk to Chapelle. That giant toad is no longer a problem in Novigrad. If he wants to find out the specific situation from me, He knows where to find me."
The two of them walked away under the watch of the Eternal Fire Patrol. On the way, they met up with the Cintra soldiers they brought out and walked all the way back to their residence.
.........
House sat on a chair in the hall, looking troubled.
Levin leaned back on the chair with his arms folded, his eyes looking around restlessly, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Do you think our mission is completed this time... or not?" In the end, it was Levin who was the first to ask House:
"This is my first mission after joining the Lions... ...But I suddenly don't know how to evaluate it."
House's troubled expression did not change, and he didn't know what to say.
Milva did not think about these things together with the two men. She kept lying on the tree in the courtyard, looking into the distance, waiting for the return of the Earl and his entourage.
"Hey, hey, hey." She suddenly shouted, "I'm back, I'm back!"
No matter what movements or expressions they had before, Levin and House instantly turned into serious-faced and upright bodyguards to welcome the Lord's return. .
Lann stepped into the courtyard. Being familiar with the attendants, he could easily see the tension and anxiety hidden under their serious masks.
He chuckled: "I saw Milva on the tree from all the way. It seems that you have been waiting for me for a long time."
Lan En glanced at the courtyard, then looked at the few attendants with empty hands, and asked :
"Were you unable to bring your things back? Are the Bosodi family causing trouble for you? Or do you want me to come forward in person?"
Several people looked at each other, and finally House stepped forward and explained: "I'm sorry. Lord Earl, we failed to bring back what you wanted. This process... was very tortuous."
Lann motioned to the soldiers who had followed him all night to rest first, then found a lounge chair and gestured to the attendants in a comfortable posture. go on.
"The head of House Borsodi is now Horst Borsodi. He sternly rejected us after hearing our appeal. But we met another Duchess who saw the Lannister tattoo on our bodies. Zhang later took the initiative to talk to us, and after knowing our purpose, he helped us buy the Posodi House."
Lann was stunned: "Duchess?"
House nodded and said, "We expressed our gratitude to the Duchess afterwards. , she did not accept it, and said that she would not give the Posodi House to us for free."
Lann nodded: "That's right, how much does the Duchess want?"
"She doesn't want money." House said Shaking her head, "According to what she said, she wants to talk to you in person. And judging from the information revealed in her words, she seems to be very interested in the affairs of the witcher." "The witcher?
" Lann had a guess in his mind, "Did the Duchess tell you her name?"
House said, "She asked me to call her 'Duchess Minor'"
...
In Redania , and even the entire Northern Territory, when people mention the auction house, they will think of "Bosodi Brothers Auction House".
Its scale and the richness of its collections are rare in the north. Some people even think that it is no longer an "auction house" but a "collectibles bazaar".
It brings together treasures, antiques, foreign art and various oddities from all over the world, and an auction is held every quarter.
Many things that are dusty pearls in other places can often shine and fetch sky-high prices here.
In the game, due to the war, the Posodi Brothers Auction House will move to Cowburg, where the political situation is slightly more stable, but at the moment its headquarters is still in Novigrad.
The auction is only held once every quarter, and the trio of attendants happened to be in time for this quarter's auction. They once wanted to visit the patriarch of the Bosodi family in private, but they never got the other party's free time. Only at this time did they have the opportunity to meet each other.
House has lived in the royal family of Sintra for many years and has received a certain amount of butler education. He is not afraid of stage in such situations. Now that he had put on a decent outfit, he felt comfortable among the crowd.
Levin and Milva were all tense, fearing that they might almost damage the gentleman or the knight's gesture clothes and cause unnecessary trouble to the earl.
They actually looked a bit like House's bodyguards.
At this moment, House was sitting on a small table by the window. Opposite him was a well-dressed gentleman who I heard was a Gwent master.
"My last card - 'Lion Knight Rann'."
Facing House's round attack, the Gwent master was holding back his face and looked red in disbelief, looking at the card that decided the outcome in disbelief. Collection cards.
"How is it possible? How could you have this card!"
House laughed loudly: "Lannister is invincible! Your Nilfgaard deck is no match for me at all!"
The unnamed Kun The special card master slammed the table, threw down a money bag, shouted about "cheating" and "witchcraft", and left angrily.
The gentlemen playing Gwent at the next table looked over in surprise, as if they wanted to take a good look at this rare collection card.
But House changed hands and put his deck into his arms at lightning speed.
With a humble smile on his face, he bowed to the surroundings and said apologetically that his battle for the day was over.
Milva curled his lips disdainfully and said to Levin: "Do you feel that his current actions are very much like the earl? It is really a poor imitation." Levin glanced at Milva: "Do you feel that your current actions are very similar to those of the Earl
? The tone of your words also sounds a bit like the earl?"
Milva was stunned and didn't know what he thought of, and his face turned red.
But seeing House coming back with a smile, Milva immediately put on a mocking expression: "Have you finally had enough? I thought you had forgotten the purpose of our coming here today." Not that
Milva She had no opinion on House, but the environment she was in now made her feel very uncomfortable. At this time, House left the two of them to play cards and have fun, which made the jungle shooter unable to control his temper.
House shook his head: "Do you think I have been playing? The card table and the tavern are the fastest places to find out information."
Without waiting for Milva to react, he hugged the two of them and whispered as he walked: "Bo The wealth of the Sordi family is far beyond our imagination. Did you see the auctioneer over there? That is a nobleman, a knight, and now he is doing such a public and disgraceful job just because the Bosoldi family wants to Improve the style of the auction and spend a lot of money on him." "
I also asked about the turnover of their last auction. It is said that the items they auction here are limited to gems, collectibles, artworks and antiques. The taxes paid are enough to produce the output of Brochlon Town for two years!"
As the grandson of the mayor of Brochlon Town, Levin was immediately stunned by what House said.
House shook his head and continued to his two companions: "I just had a chat with a dwarf banker who comes here often. That Horst Bosodi - the member of the Bosodi family The patriarch - he will only appear for a while at the end of the first auction to chat with some important customers. That is the only time we can get close to him."
When it came to business, Milva and Levin also looked serious, and together nod.
What else did they want to discuss, when suddenly an old woman's voice sounded behind them.
"I heard that a Gwent master from Cintra appeared here... The crest of the lion, are you from the Lannister family? The family of the Lion Knight?" (End of this chapter
