The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 17 This old man is very bad
And Henselt?
This bad old man is very bad.

In the future world line, the southern Nilfgaard Empire launched the Second Northern War.

Logically, after experiencing the First Northern War, all the northern kings should have understood the threat of the Nilfgaardian Empire and united.

And the other northern kings did the same.

Only Henselt, the king of Kaedwen, took advantage of the war between the neighboring country Aedirn and the Nilfgaardians to brazenly send troops and annex the land of Aedirn.

Afterwards, he was even able to shake hands with the Nilfgaardian army's marshal and confirm the division of Aedirn.

He really has no shame at all.

"To the west of the Kingdom of Kaedwen lies the Kingdom of Redania. The King of Redania is Vizimir II, known as the Just."

"King Vizimir has managed relations with neighboring countries well and has managed the domestic economy well. More importantly, King Vizimir has a relatively open-minded attitude towards witchers."

"So, not only do we get a lot of work within Redania, we also rarely encounter denials."

"But if you ask where a witcher would be most comfortable, one place would be the Skellige Islands, where martial virtues abound. The Skellige people are a warrior nation who value the power of force. There's nothing they can't solve with a few drinks and a fight."

"The other is Toussaint, the legendary land of knights, a fairy-tale kingdom where wine and honey flow everywhere."

"The last one is the Kingdom of Kovir and Povis."

Lambert sighed. "It's a pity I never had the chance to go to Toussaint. If you ever go to Toussaint one day, don't forget to tell me about it when you come back."

"Okay, let's go check it out, it should be OK."

……

Lynn walked to the stone platform.

Confirm that the badge placed on the stone platform has been charged.

He grabbed the badge.

And at the moment his hand touched the stone platform.

He suddenly felt a surge of magical power gathering from the stone platform into his hands.

He was startled and picked up the badge from the stone platform.

The feeling of magic power gathering in his hands was immediately gone.

He thought about it and put his hand back on the stone platform.

In a moment, the feeling came back.

"what happened?"

Lambert's voice sounded behind him.

"Nothing, but wait a moment."

Lynn thought for a moment and closed his eyes.

Feel carefully.

Then he discovered that if he wanted, he could allow the magic power gathered in his hands to flow into his body.

Or he could just walk away and ignore it.

However, what Lin En could feel was that the magic power gathered in his hands was very gentle.

It's like a hot bath at just the right temperature.

After weighing the pros and cons, he let down his guard and let the magic power flow into his body.

The witcher badge held in his palm vibrated due to the flow of magic power.

He could feel the flow of magic gathered by the elemental ring flowing down his arms and seeping into his body bit by bit.

He opened the attribute panel and found that his attribute points were starting to increase as he absorbed more and more magic power.

"It turns out it can still be like this."

Lin En's eyes lit up, and he almost greedily absorbed the magic power of the Elemental Ring.

Until the magic power entering the body began to slow down, like a river drying up, until it disappeared.

He glanced at the attribute panel and was shocked to realize what he had just obtained:
Attribute points: 0 (69%) → 5 (0%)

By absorbing the magic power of the Ring of Elements, he actually directly gained 431% of the experience points.

While Lin En was ecstatic, he did not hesitate to allocate all of it to the seal. "Seal (Mastery) → (Master/Ultimate)"

New Specialty: Mana Drain (Increases mana recovery speed by 20%)

As the words behind the seal on the attribute panel changed, Lin En felt that the chaotic magic power in his body suddenly began to boil.

He subconsciously raised his hand, and a blazing flame burst out from his palm.

If he had this strength when fighting the swamp witch a few months ago, the master-level Alder Sign he released would probably have directly knocked the swamp witch away instead of just making her stagger.

Not only that, he could also clearly feel that after releasing the seal, the consumed chaos magic power was also replenished rapidly, and its recovery speed was much faster than before.

Bashi!
"Lin En, you..."

If the Igni Sign released by an ordinary demon hunter is at the level of a lighter, then the flame released by Lin En just now can be regarded as a flamethrower.

Lambert stared in amazement at the Igni Sign displayed by Lynn.

"Is he really a genius?"

……

As night fell, both of them returned to Kaer Morhen.

To celebrate Lynn passing the badge trial, Vesemir took out all his collection of wine.

You know, in the past, Vesemir was not allowed to touch these wines.

Once, Lambert tried to sneak into the cellar, but Vesemir chased him for several miles.

If there is only wine but no food, that certainly won’t work.

Geralt and Eskar cooked a large table of delicious food themselves.

The aroma of meat filled the air, and Lambert was so greedy that his mouth was almost watering.

"cheers!"

Everyone sat around the table, the fire illuminating the smiles on their faces.

It's very cold in the mountains at night.

But the cheerful atmosphere and the firewood burning in the fireplace dispelled the chill.

That night, Vesemir got drunk.

Everyone worked together to carry the old witcher back to his room.

“You know what? I’ve never seen Father Vesemir drunk.” Lambert turned to look at Geralt. “And you, Geralt, when was the last time you saw Father Vesemir drunk?”

"That was a long, long time ago, so long ago that I can hardly remember what it was about."

Afterwards, the four of them returned to the hall and partied for a long time.

Lin En vaguely remembered that he had done some very stupid things.

But he couldn't remember what it was exactly.

The next day, he didn't wake up until noon.

And my head hurts terribly.

He drank some water and ran several more laps around Kaer Morhen.

After a while of cold wind, I finally felt much more awake.

When I returned to the castle hall, I found it was in a mess.

Geralt and the others didn't even go back to their rooms, but fell asleep in the hall in a mess.

Lynn cleaned them up silently and carried them back to the room one by one.

……

When people always hope that a certain day in the future will come quickly, time will slip away from their fingers unknowingly.

When they look back, they will sigh that time has passed so quickly.

When it came to March 1250, the mountains were still cold.

But the witchers are ready to set off.
