Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job

Chapter 25 Explore
Because Toruville helped them solve the problem of weapons and blacksmiths.

After discussing matters related to exploring the ruins, Wayne and Geralt went to the forest to collect the materials needed for the potion.

He is still a novice in this matter, and most of what he has come into contact with so far are some herbs and monsters around Kaer Morhen. As for the others, he still needs Geralt, an experienced demon hunter, to teach him by precept and example.

Although, during the two years in Kaer Morhen, he had already learned a lot of knowledge about monsters and herbs from books, but it was not that simple to actually use it.

While collecting herbs, the two searched for traces of those monsters in various terrains.

And Toruwell had nothing to do, and took the initiative to act as a guide for the two of them, guiding them in the forest.

It has to be said that the elf race is very suitable for fighting in the forest. They are naturally sensitive and have keen senses. As long as they undergo certain training, they can become a qualified archer.

And Toruwell can become the leader of this group of non-human races, and her combat power is also the strongest among them. This female elf is not only an excellent swordsman, but also a marksman with a hundred shots.

The three of them walked all the way in the forest, and soon completed the expected collection task.

And Toruwell's outstanding performance also made Wayne see the fighting potential of the non-human race.

He was confident that he could deal with a dozen armed bandits at once, but he was not sure that he could face the same number of elves in the forest.

Bows and arrows hidden in the dark are far more threatening than shining knives and guns.

After returning to the camp, Wayne was in a good mood, so he cooked the game himself. He boiled the game they hunted outside of their missions into a large pot of vegetable stew and various hard dishes, and invited everyone in the camp to taste it.

Undoubtedly, with LV6 cooking skills, coupled with the culinary concepts of the foodie empire far beyond the middle ages.

His culinary skills successfully conquered everyone's appetite, and even the female elf leader, who has always been indifferent to the taste of food, ate an extra bowl than usual.

Taking advantage of this pleasant atmosphere, Toruwell simply asked everyone to hold a small bonfire dinner.

Men, women, young and old, all kinds of non-human races gathered together, laughed and laughed, ate delicious food, drank fine wine, and talked about their expectations for the future, which greatly improved the morale and cohesion of the entire camp.

After a short period of joy, time soon came to the next day, and the commission to clean up the ruins officially began.

There were five people in the team exploring the ruins this time. In addition to the two demon hunters Wayne and Geralt, Toluviel also brought a male elf marksman and a dwarf warrior in heavy armor.

Of course, according to the discussions between the two parties, the work of dealing with monsters is not suitable for ordinary people. Toruwell and her two best fighters do not need to directly participate in the battle.

They were only responsible for following Wayne and Geralt, handling the corpses of monsters, and preventing uncontrollable accidents. Geralt and Wayne were the main force in cleaning up the ruins.

Before officially entering the ruins, they had to carry out a necessary preparatory measure exclusively for demon hunters.

Geralt and Wayne sat cross-legged at the gate of the ruins. There were five kinds of glass bottles in front of them. There were always more than a dozen of them. Inside were witcher potions of different colors and shapes.

"Cat Potion, Thunder Potion, Swallow Potion, Tawny Owl, and Maribau Forest."

While talking about the names, White Wolf pointed at the potions and said to Wayne:

"Our existing materials can only produce these five potions, and we must rely on potions to strengthen us for the next battle."

"You should remember their effects clearly. As for which ones to drink, Wayne, you can choose."

"However, pay attention to your limits. I don't want to bury your body that was poisoned by the potion before the battle begins."

After speaking, Geralt directly took a bottle of each of the five potions, like drinking alcohol, and poured a bottle into his mouth every half minute, then closed his eyes and entered a state of meditation.

He has been a demon hunter for more than 70 years, and among all wolf school demon hunters, he has the deepest mutation, the best physical talent, and the strongest poison he can withstand.

Drinking five bottles of potions at the same time was not even his limit.

However, Wayne sitting across from him was different. He knew very well that without systematic blessing, his degree of mutation would probably be the most obvious among the existing wolf-blood demon hunters. The original owner even hiccupped during the mutation process.

But in the past two years, he only drank one bottle of potion at most at a time. He was very self-aware of his poison resistance limit. Three bottles of potion was his limit, not even the very poisonous potion.

After thinking about it, Wayne reached out and took away the cat potion, the swallow potion and the tawny owl.

These three potions can strengthen his dark vision, recovery ability and the recovery speed of the chaotic magic power in his body respectively.

In the dark environment of the underground ruins, the cat potion is a must, and the other two can just strengthen his magic seal.

Considering his own situation, Wayne no longer hesitated, picked up the three bottles of potions, and poured them into his stomach while meditating.

The taste of the potion is quite bad, most of it contains the body tissue of monsters, and the taste can only be described as indescribable.

But it is too dangerous to deal with monsters, and they may die if they are not careful. In order to improve the survival rate, demon hunters have to drink these terrible things.

Ten minutes later, both Geralt and Wayne finished their meditation, and the witcher potion had been completely digested by their bodies, starting to strengthen their bodily functions.

This enhancement made both of their faces pale, with black veins protruding from all parts of their faces, and even the original amber pupils turned black and filled the entire eyeballs, which looked quite strange and terrifying.

This terrifying change shocked Toruwell and her two subordinates who had been waiting by the side.

However, the three of them were all long-lived races, and they had all heard about the deeds of the demon hunters. They were surprised and calmed down quickly, and they were not as fussy as many human troublemakers.

After everything was ready, without further communication, Wayne and Geralt held the silver sword and put a Quinn shield on themselves, and walked side by side into the gate guarded by soldiers with a cautious attitude.

Behind the gate is a corridor, which is also in the elf style. The walls and ceiling are carved with exquisite patterns, but because of the age, many sculptures have obvious signs of weathering, which seems to have a sense of the vicissitudes of history.

However, Wayne and Geralt didn't pay attention to these sculptures. After walking four to fifty meters in the corridor, some relatively new footprints appeared in their dark vision.

Seeing these footprints, Geralt first cautiously observed the ceiling and surroundings, and after confirming that there was no danger, he squatted down and observed carefully.

This elven ruin should have had no guests for a long time, and a thick layer of dust had accumulated in the corridors. It was for this reason that those somewhat messy footprints were clearly printed on the ground.

Geralt observed for about a minute, then got up and said to Wayne:

"It's the water ghost's footprints, and the little mist demon."

"Be prepared, there are a lot of them, maybe you will meet them at the end of this corridor."
