Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 104 103. Half Murloc Sacrifice
After dismissing Serena, who was very curious about life in the big city, Lan En touched the tapered crystal in his back pocket again.

"Rita, are you still there?"

"I'm always waiting for you."

Even though the female sorceress on the opposite side had no intention of flirting at this time, it has become her instinct to be charming.

The words spoken can make every man's bones crisp.

Fortunately, Lan En's current aesthetic standards are set very high, so he won't be confused just because of a few words.

"Tell me about Necromancy. I heard it's a forbidden spell?"

"Necronomy?! Why are you asking this?"

Margarita exclaimed, as if even mentioning the name of this spell felt ominous and taboo.

"The only clue is an insider who was caught by me. He... should be said to have died in an accident. We can't give up this clue. Triss and Keira have done everything they can, but the other party's intelligence The ability to control is as strong as Foltest himself. I said, the king should not get involved in the slave trade, right?"

"Impossible." Margarita said firmly.

"The prohibition of slavery can be implemented in the northern countries because this system is in the interests of the northern countries. The interests of the country are the interests of the king. Although Foltest is not restrained, he is absolutely smart. There is nothing wrong with this Why are you taboo?"

"Let's talk about Necromancy. Lan En, even if that clue is cut off, I won't support you to use this kind of spell!"

The witcher frowned slightly.

"Rita, those children are about to be transported to the south and trained as bed slaves!"

"That's better than letting the magical power of a piece of land be unbalanced, demon spirits raging, and land power being lost! [Necromancer] must reverse the flow of souls! Even if it is temporary, it will inevitably lead to backlash!"

When Lan En heard this, he grinded his back molars in confusion.

He originally thought that [Necromantic Art] was only banned because of the high mana requirements for warlocks and the serious consequences of failure.

Then as long as he finds a magician with enough mana to help him, it's not a problem.

But I didn't expect that this kind of spell itself would cause harm to the world environment when it was cast!

If Lan En is a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, that's fine.

But the reason Gaunt O'Dim threw the body here was because he knew that Lane was not this kind of person.

I want to rescue the slaves, and I want to kill the mastermind behind the scenes.

These thoughts are all from Lane's own moral outlook.

For this reason, even if he is alone, he dares to fight the opponent's huge power group to the end.

But because of this, it is impossible for him to pursue [Necromancer] regardless of the consequences.

Morality is a restriction on the self. Since this restriction comes from the will of life itself, Lan En will not go beyond it.

Because you encounter difficulties, feel tired, and feel difficult, you cross the bottom line you set for yourself?

Then what kind of man? !

"Understood, I won't think about [Necromancer] again. Let's talk about this first, I have to meet someone."

"Take care, Lane. I'm sorry, I can't help you with this."

"Don't talk about it, Rita. Fifteen hundred Oren, two royal advisors, ordinary people can't earn so much money in a few lifetimes, and they can't get to know high-ranking warlocks."

Margarita was silent for a moment, then hesitated to speak.

"If, I mean if, Lane. If you really don't have a clue, you can go back to Aritu first."

"No ifs."

The witcher categorically refused.

"I'm not going to fail. At least this time, I'm not going to fail."

Before the sorceress could react, Lan En pulled out the alchemy leather bag.

He placed Aliya and the limp corpse not far away, and he himself followed Serena's guidance to the altar of the murloc.

When he hung up Margarita's "phone", the witcher happened to see a half-murloc waiting for him on the base of the altar near the lake.

It was precisely because of this attitude that Lan En was sure that the hands and feet on the portal he passed through were inseparable from the murloc.

But it's no big deal.

Compared with that chilling glass kid, even a foolish water ghost can be called "friendly and friendly".

The half murloc was holding a scepter-like utensil, which looked like a priest.With fish-scale skin, arched waist as high as human chest, thin arms and thin legs.

Wearing a brass and filter breathing mask on the head, it looks a bit steampunk.

A few long catfish-like whiskers leaked from the side of the breathing mask.

This is Lan En's first communication with an intelligent creature whose image is so different from that of a human.

After going up to the altar, the demon hunter didn't hesitate at all, and went straight to the half murloc to offer sacrifices.

"Human language, can you?"

"I can, speak your, language. Fine."

The half-murloc priest was not surprised either, and started a conversation naturally.

"You brought me here? You look like a spellcaster."

From the breathing mask of the half-murloc priest, there was a "gurgling" laugh that sounded like phlegm.

"Spellcaster, I will not. It is the great lady who summoned you."

As the half-fish man said, the scepter in his hand was raised obliquely upwards, pointing at the main body of the altar.

It was a beautiful female statue with pointed ears and an open embrace in the waves.

Lady of the Lake.

"Great lady" Lane folded her arms and smiled.

"What's the use of finding a lowly witcher?"

"We, need a good, witcher to do things. There's something in the lake, very! Very! Unclean stuff. Now."

"Then how does this lady know that I'm a 'good witcher' enough?"

"Ma'am will listen." At this point, the murloc's not-so-serious attitude suddenly changed when facing Lan En.

Holding the scepter in its reverent hands, it turns to face the statue.

Speaking in a ballad-like tone.

"The rising bubbles of the lake, the silent breath of the trees, and the rippling fishes of Lady Wave listens and pours out her love. You'll feel it, witcher."

Lan En was noncommittal about the determination of the murloc.

But he would not question other people's beliefs from the very beginning, so he also followed the half murloc and bowed to the statue to show respect.

The half-murloc nodded in satisfaction.

"I am happy to help kind creatures, whether they are humans or murlocs."

After Lan En straightened up again, he first expressed his inclination.

The murlocs here are living in harmony with humans, and there are even human children playing on the base of the altar of the murlocs.

In this world of increasingly acute racial discrimination, it was rare for Lan En to like it a little bit.

And then, it's time to talk about something practical.

"But I think mutual help and mutual help should be interdependent, whether above water or underwater. To put it bluntly, I have a lot of experience in killing monsters. But I am also in trouble now. I believe that the lady will understand my troubles. You should also understand."

Lane's thumb pointed backwards, in that direction lay Ubank's body.
