Chapter 2: 2 Accidental Son
Chapter 2 2. The unexpected child
The intersection between Lane and Bordon was an accident.
In other words, it was an accident that he came to this magical medieval environment.
A college student with healthy parents and healthy mental and physical growth.
It makes no sense to arrive at a savage and dark world after inexplicably traveling through the endless void.
There is magic here, but it is not prosperous, at least not to the level that affects the social process.
So in a backward social background, human life is like a piece of grass.
As long as humans dare to walk a few dozen meters into the woods of Willen, the shadow of death has already wrapped around their bodies.
Death of starvation, disease, being killed by wild beasts or monsters, or simply being bitten by an unknown insect and poisoned to death. Most of the Velen people have become numb to the death around them.
Modern college students have only heard about life in ancient times from a few pages in history books.
He knew that apart from magic and monsters, the life of the Velen people was the life of ancient civilians.
But Zhi Gui knew that when this cruel and heavy life that had long since left him was vividly placed before his eyes, it was still difficult for him to accept it.
Death is all too common.
As a great writer once said, this is an era when "people want to be dogs but cannot".
What is neither good nor bad luck is that Lan En cannot be a commoner.
He became Bordon's "accidental son".
He was "made" into the same kind of people, that is, witchers.
The "Law of Accident" is an unwritten law that is generally recognized and followed in the world.
Its origins are as old as human history.
Its content is: A person who saves others can, in accordance with the law of accident, ask for a reward from the saved person, and ask for the first thing the saved person sees when he returns home, or something that the saved person does not have. Something that one knows but already possessesusually a child acquired when the rescued left home. Such children are called "accidental children."
Even in the magical Middle Ages, supernatural power was still a scarce resource.
Having the opportunity to master supernatural powers should be a blessing for a modern college student who is frightened by the cruel living environment.
but
What is our goal this time?
Lan En's handsome yellow face looked around, carefully steering the old horse to avoid a tree trunk, and walked in front of Bordon.
This big man with hair as thick as a brown bear would not trust him to stay out of sight for a long time.
The thick beard has a slit in the middle, which is Bordon's lip.
Perhaps it is two or three small fog monsters gathered together, or a fog monster that is old enough. The range and magic power of the fog are within this category.
Cant even determine the quantity? This is too much preparation.
Lann's body did not show any emotional fluctuations, but Bordon's invisible face already frowned slightly.
Witchers are stronger than ordinary people, but in terms of basic quality alone, it is basically impossible to beat the combined strength of five ordinary people.
Witchers dare to hunt monsters because of their skills, knowledge, and most importantly - experience.
Accurately detect the type and quantity of prey from clues, learn the prey's abilities and weaknesses based on your own knowledge reserves, and then fight an "asymmetric battle" with complete preparations.
This is how witchers work.
If Bordon's pre-war preparations were at this level, he would have no chance of growing such a beard.
When he was still a young boy, he should have died in some wasteland!
Lan En actually already has the answer to this in his heart.
The ice-like gaze climbed up Lan En's back, and a tone as cold as the gaze came.
You take the lead and use Quen well.
It is not a discussion, but an order.
witchers of the Bear School generally have no emotions, and therefore lose even the most basic verbal concealment when sending people to death.
Lan En nodded calmly.
If he hadn't been used as cannon fodder to save hunting costs, he would have been lucky to have this pair of cat's eyes.
And it was right next to the field bank that the two of them passed by just now.
The farmer who survived the catastrophe humbly bowed his waist and pointed at a pool of blood in his field to the four soldiers wearing Temerian-style armor.
That was left behind by his loyal family dog.
The farmer was chattering, and the soldier was a little annoyed. The iron glove was raised in the air, as if it was about to hit the farmer's face in the next second.
After scolding him a few times, the farmer pointed out a direction.
The four soldiers looked in that direction, tilted their heads and spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, cursed and got on their horses.
~~~~~~
Because of some things, Bordon is now wanted by the lord of Velen.
However, the level of law enforcement is equivalent to that of the Middle Ages. Therefore, although the witcher intends to hide his traces, he does not intend to stop the demon hunting mission that involves food and expenses.
And hes not even going to pay a little bit of the cost of hunting!
Lan and Bordon were already standing in front of a valley valley formed by the staggered hillsides. In the depression of the valley is a vague pile of rocks.
The reason why it is vague is because there is a layer of yellow-yellow-green mist that suddenly covers a large area of land.
The wind cannot blow it, and the water vapor cannot sink it.
Lann glanced at the roaring bear head necklace on Bordon's neck. The delicate bear head was trembling slightly.
It sensed the magic in the mist.
Judging from the degree of tremor, the magic power is not very strong.
His belly was growling because of hunger, but Lan En still moved his body seriously.
The loyal dog had finished eating, and Bordon left him a dog's head.
There is not much meat, but Lan En has adapted to it.
The man did not starve Lan En intentionally out of spite. In fact, he could not derive pleasure from evil deeds at all.
But for a person without emotional hormone secretion, you cant expect him to care much about his tools.
Bordong didnt want Lan En to starve, but he didnt care whether Lan En was full or not.
Witchers are very tolerant and therefore very capable of starvation.
While Lan En was moving his body, he didn't see Bordon take out the potion from the potion bag, nor did he see him pull out the two swords on his back and apply sword oil.
Generally speaking, both of these things can significantly increase the witcher's advantage over monsters.
Other than being expensive and toxic, there are few disadvantages.
As the main force, Bordon was obviously not willing to spend the money this time.
As a forward and a spy, Lane must bear the risk for Bordon's saving.
This is exactly how Bordon used him.
Now, move forward.
After tying up the horse, the bearded man pulled out one of the two swords behind him amidst the low sound of metal friction.
Hand-and-half sword shining with cold silver light.
The look in his eyes as he looked at Lan En's back was as warm as the sword light.
It was a kind of coldness without any fluctuation.
In front of the young man were an unknown number and strength of mist monsters.
It or they can create fog, become invisible, and the smarter ones can shape the fog to create phantoms.
This gray-skinned humanoid scavenger monster has sharp and sharp claws, and its skinny arms can remove the heads of dogs or sheep when waved. The cotton armor will be torn into pieces in front of them like paper.
An ordinary farmer, if full of vigilance, would have his stomach cut open within five seconds, and his intestines would flow all over the place.
Not to mention the ability of this monster, it is the type that is good at sneak attacks.
Behind the young man, a demon hunter who had hunted an unknown number of monsters and could move freely wearing an armor weighing at least thirty kilograms pulled out the silver sword behind him.
Silver can restrain monsters and has a soft nature. But it was a sword with an iron core covered with silver, so it wouldn't be a problem to cut people.
But Lan En seemed to have no feeling at all, and that delicate face seemed to have really lost all emotion and remained motionless.
Just tightened the cotton armor tightly on his hands again, and stared blankly into the void.
On his retina, there was a clear and concise view.
Name: Lan En
Race: Demon hunter (magic transformer)
Skill: Bear School Swordsmanship (Practice plan has been formulated. Instruction in progressinterrupted. Reason: Insufficient computing power)
Poison knowledge (recording. Preparation guidanceinterrupted. Reason: Insufficient computing power)
Quen's Dharma Seal (Practice plan [Elementary] has been formulated. Instruction in progress - interrupted. Reason: Insufficient computing power)
The knowledge related to the life of a witcher is listed one by one.
Swordsmanship, potions, and seals. But in the end, there will always be four bold and bold words, "Insufficient computing power."
A series of "insufficient computing power" are clearly marked with a series of arrows, indicating the whereabouts of this precious computing power.
It is a bright red progress bar that is almost finished and marked "Parsing".
The eyes behind him became colder and colder, Lan En remained calm and turned off the projection on his retina with his mind.
Its time to get to work.
