Text 33. The Inheritance of the Wolf--Adding More for Chen Wenjun's 2 Brothers【20/40】

"I have to go now."

The legendary witcher stood up from the sofa, stroked his beard, and said to Merlin:

"Thanks for the hospitality, the wine in your collection tastes good."

"I would also like to thank you for the news."

Although Merlin was still struggling after accepting the suggestion, he still expressed his gratitude to the legend in a decent way. Facing Merlin's thanks, Geralt waved his hand and said:

"Little Ulysses and little girl Elsa are both my juniors. Although they belong to the Griffin School, not the Wolf School, but in this era, the inheritance of demon hunters has almost all withered, and the remaining The demon hunters are almost huddling together for warmth. Under such circumstances, any talented demon hunter should be properly protected."

"Speaking of which."

Merlin sent Geralt to the lawn of his mansion. In the deepest night of the morning, he asked:

"Although Elsa explained to me the differences between the various schools, but because she has not completed the trial, she does not know very detailed. In fact, except for the information of the Griffin School, she herself knows Not many."

"I'm curious, why did the demon hunters split into so many factions in the first place? Is it just because of different fighting styles?"

"of course not."

Geralt shook his head and said:

"If only it were that simple. If you really want to know the stories of these old rotten millets, I can tell you. Anyway, not many people care about these things now."

"Well, I'm very interested."

Merlin moved his fingers, and he said to the white wolf:

"Actually, I also plan to re-establish the heritage of the demon hunter in my organization. My organization has to face the pressure of dealing with aliens. Official status is not enough. I have been looking for ways to strengthen my organization. The method of combat effectiveness of the agents under his command, but if it is not enough to constantly update weapons and equipment, this road is almost endless."

He said:

"The best way is to do both in terms of equipment and agent quality."

"Um?"

The white wolf looked at Merlin strangely, then shook his head and said:

"Strange idea, you have to know, Merlin, there is a reason why the legacy of the demon hunter was eliminated by the times. Just from the 'Trial of Green Grass' started by the demon hunter, in our era, drinking the mutation potion can Only 3 out of 10 children survive the mutation period. Only 3 out of 10 survive.”

"This is a cruel ritual. Although the times have developed to the present, those demon hunter families have used various methods to increase the success rate of mutation potions to 50%, but that only means that life and death are half and half. Do you understand what I mean?"

Geralt shook his head and said:

"This is brutal."

"Of course I won't throw them a few bottles of medicine and let them die. I still value the lives of my subordinates."

Merlin says:

"But nothing is absolute. Maybe I can find a way to increase the odds again. Maybe we can solve this problem with modern technology. A few hours ago, I went to meet a legendary vampire, Grand Duke Alissa , that 1,200-year-old old monster knows how to use genetic technology to explore the secrets of vampire blood. I think we should learn from his research spirit."

"Alyssa Makinos?"

Geralt pursed his lips, and after a while, he said to Merlin:

"Stay away from the Grand Duke, that guy is dangerous. In a way, it's even more dangerous than Dracula. All Dracula wants is pure evil and chaos, but what Alissa pursues is A solid and dangerous order."

"But then again, if you want to try a different path, it's not a bad thing for the now nearly extinct witcher."

Having said that, the White Wolf returned to Merlin's basement, and a few minutes later, he came out with a few pieces of paper, and handed the paper filled with complex alchemy formulas to Merlin, saying:

"This is what I know so far. You can use it to experiment with the latest mutation potion formula, but it's best not to spread it casually."

"Um?"

Merlin took the papers in surprise, and said to Geralt:

"Did this thing just be given to me so casually? I heard from Elsa that this should be very important and should be kept strictly confidential."

"That's for them."

White Wolf shrugged:

"The formula of the mutation potion is indeed one of the most important secrets passed down by a family, but I didn't catch up with the good times, Merlin. In my era, the mutation potion was still very primitive and barbaric. It gave me the price of an extraordinary body, It just made me lose my emotions and fertility, and my wife is a medieval sorceress, and the price for them to learn magic is the same infertility."

"I don't have a family, so I don't care about these. And in my opinion, it's stupid for the modern witcher family to keep this information secret. As far as I know, the bloodstone family and the Van Helsing family have completely different formulas. I It means that if they can communicate these things with each other, maybe the success rate of the mutagen will increase again."

"Um."

Merlin put away some papers and looked at Geralt.

"So, can you tell me, what are the differences between your various schools?"

"In fact, there is no difference. Everyone uses similar skills and abilities. But you also know that when there are too many people in an organization, there will naturally be various ideological disputes. In addition, everyone's acting styles are different. Cats like to hide in the shadows, poisonous snakes are gloomy and fierce, bears are domineering and unrestrained, wolves walk alone, flying lions are always immersed in their own research, and griffins are more like knights in the witcher.”

Geralt rubbed his forehead and said softly:

"Such a group of people will only unite together unless it is a real catastrophe. On weekdays, everyone is almost inseparable from each other."

"Of course, another important reason for distinguishing factions is fighting style."

The white wolf leaned against the wall, folded his arms, and talked to Merlin:

"I believe little girl Elsa has already told you this point. The cat school is agile assassins, the bear school is resolute and fearless fighters, and the viper school is unparalleled in understanding and using poisons and traps. They are good at using all kinds of hunting weapons, and they are true weapon masters, while the relatively rare Flying Lion School is more like a researcher among demon hunters, and their application of alchemy is very profound."

"The Bloodstone family is inherited from the Griffin. I was surprised by the use of the seal combination by little Ulysses. However, Elsa has not passed the trial and is not a real witcher, so she can only use some weapons. skills, and cannot use special seals."

"The last is the wolf school, which is the inheritance of my school. We take into account both agility and strength, and we will also use alchemy and magic seals to fight. When necessary, poisoning weapons is also a good choice. The wolf school is the most comprehensive in theory. It can, but in actual combat, it is also the most mediocre."

"Knowing everything is equivalent to knowing nothing."

Geralt spread his arms and said to Merlin:

"So the current result is that there are still inheritors in several other schools, but I am the only one left in the wolf school."

"But it seems that you are the only one who has left a saint in history, a legendary demon hunter, right?"

Merlin looked at Geralt suspiciously, and said:

"Almighty in theory means that this school has the possibility of becoming omnipotent. As for the mediocrity of others, maybe it's just because of talent?"

"well said!"

White Wolf stood up straight, clapped his hands, took out two things from his pocket, handed them to Merlin, and said to him:

"You young man is very thoughtful. How about inheriting the wolf school with me? I think you seem to be a very talented person."

"Come on, take my badge and Gwent card, and you will be the inheritor of this generation of wolf school's demon hunters!"

"Well"

Merlin looked at the brand-new black wolf-head emblem and the set of silver and gold-edged Gwent cards handed over by Geralt. He hesitated whether to accept it, but the next moment, Geralt moved his fingers, and in a special Like magic, but not like magic, the wolf head emblem lightly landed on Merlin's neck.

Most importantly, Merlin couldn't dodge even if he wanted to.

When Geralt's fingers moved, his body seemed to be locked in place by invisible hands.

"very good."

Geralt looked at Merlin with the wolf head emblem, and said with satisfaction:

"From now on, you are also a demon hunter of the wolf school! Merlin, you see, I am already old, and I can't fight anymore, so the important task of revitalizing the wolf school falls on your shoulders."

"I've put all the inherited knowledge of our school into this floppy disk. Be sure to keep it well."

Geralt put his Gwent card into Merlin's pocket like a treasure, and took out a small silver floppy disk from his pocket, and put it into Merlin's pocket, which was completely immovable. Merlin's shoulders looked like he had entrusted him with a heavy responsibility.

"I know, you will definitely doubt my kindness that is too 'enthusiastic'."

"Well, let me just say it straight, the kindness I gave you is indeed not groundless. I have an organization behind me, and they sent me to observe you. I think you are not bad, but you are still a little short of the threshold to join our organization I hope you will be able to join us when I see you next time."

After finishing speaking, Mr. White Wolf stretched out his hands to straighten his clothes, and said to Merlin:

"I really should go, Ye Naifa is not a person who likes to wait for others."

"Don't try to find us, Merlin, you have more important things to do than to find us. By the way, keep my Quint, this is my 'gift' to you."

Under the "watching" of the imprisoned Merlin, the legendary witcher raised his left hand and tapped on the watch-like instrument. The next moment, as the white wolf waved goodbye, Merlin saw Geralt His body dissipated quickly like dewdrops under the sun.

It was like being swallowed up bit by bit by some special force.

And after Geralt disappeared completely, the invisible force imprisoning Merlin's body also dissipated suddenly, allowing Merlin to regain his freedom.

"These damned old guys!"

He subconsciously wanted to take off the wolf head emblem on his neck and throw it away, but when he touched the cold pendant, Merlin felt a certain special structure contained in the pendant.

The witcher's pendant does not just identify himself, it is also an effective magic detection device.

According to Elsa, whenever a demon hunter is close to a place where magic power gathers, the badge will vibrate to remind them. And these badges can also become more powerful through continuous energy absorption.

"It's a pity to just throw it away like this."

He rubbed the badge in his hand, and then took out the silver floppy disk from his pocket. After a while, Merlin returned to the bedroom and inserted the floppy disk into the computer.

Geralt left him a lot of things, including several sigils often used by the witchers of the wolf school, hundreds of alchemy formulas, and finally some unique fighting skills of the school.

He definitely didn't prepare this on a whim, because Merlin also found a message from Geralt on the floppy disk.

Very short, just a few sentences.

"The effect of the mutation potion is to allow ordinary people to get rid of their weak bodies and gain extraordinary physiques, so that they can more effectively adapt to the toxicity in the demon hunter's alchemy items and carry out overloaded training."

"But the good news is that your body itself is already extraordinary, so you can skip the stage of the mutation potion and start directly learning the combat skills and knowledge of the school. You are a wizard, and the seal may not be of much help to you. But alchemy and combat skills are what you desperately need now."

"Merlin, you are special."

"Please remember that in the long river of time, many people are paying attention to you. But unfortunately, we can't have too much contact with you until you really know the fate you bear."

"But please believe that we contacted you with good intentions."

"bona fide?"

Merlin savored the last sentence. A few seconds later, he shook his head and transferred all the data on the floppy disk to a multi-encrypted data storage peripheral.

Then, he opened the text that marked the fighting skills.

In it, Geralt described how to integrate magic power and swordsmanship in a self-reported way, which is the fighting style of wolf school demon hunters.

It has a nice name.

"Sword Dance"

Merlin looked at the words, and there was an interested smile on his face. He said softly while taking out a Gwent card with a picture of a beautiful woman from his pocket and putting it in his hand.

"It's kind of interesting."
