The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 272 You are seeking your own death.
"start!"

The elves holding bows and arrows shot their arrows one after another, and the sound of arrows hitting the target was heard throughout the forest.

After each elf had shot more than a dozen arrows, Lin En asked them to stop.

"Okay, stop now."

The physical changes brought about by the Demon Hunter mutation gave him extremely excellent eyesight, allowing him to see clearly without even walking up to the target.

He glanced at the target.

There are arrows stuck on each target, and they are all close to the center of the bull's eye, instead of the entire target being densely packed with arrows.

"Not bad." Lynn nodded in satisfaction.

Just like the dwarves' racial talents in mining, civil engineering, and forging, elves are indeed more talented than humans in archery.

They had only been practicing for a week or so, but these elves could already hit targets eighteen meters away, and basically hit them near the center.

If we train them for another two or three years, it should be no problem to recruit a group of elite archers who can shoot accurately from a hundred paces away.

"Let's take a rest first."

Lin En took out some cakes and water he bought in Novigrad from his magic pattern leather bag and distributed them to the elves.

The latter thanked him one after another, found a slightly cleaner place to sit down, and started eating.

Looking at these gentle and simple elves, Lin En was glad that he did not agree with Tisha's suggestion at that time.

It would be much better to keep these immortals for yourself, who have plenty of time to hone their archery skills. Why become a terrorist? What a waste.

As he was thinking about it, he saw a figure walking into the forest.

It's Lambert.

"What's wrong? Are you bored with training those little brats? Come over here and take a look at me?"

"It's boring, but that's not why I came to you." Lambert lost his usual playful expression and said to Lin En seriously, "Father Vesemir asked you to hurry to the castle."

Seeing Lambert's serious expression, Lin En frowned: "What happened?"

"I don't understand, let Daddy tell you."

So Lynn no longer hesitated and asked the elves to pack up their things and return to the castle with him.

When Lynn followed Lambert to a room on the second floor of Kaer Morhen, he saw Vesemir, Geralt and Tissaia there.

Several people gathered around a table, not knowing what they were looking at.

Lambert walked in with a swagger.

Lynn knocked on the door first, causing everyone else in the room to look over.

"teacher."

"Lin En, you're here just in time. Come and take a look."

Vesemir waved.

Lynn walked over.

Only then did I notice that there was a crystal clear crystal ball about the size of a human head on the table.

He blinked.

In the crystal ball, I saw six figures on horseback, trudging across the snow.

Lynn also recognized that the shields of these people were engraved with the coat of arms of Kaedwen.

"What are these Kaedweni soldiers doing in the Blue Mountains?"

Lambert crossed his arms and said, "Could it be a scout?"

Lin En shook his head. "Scouts? What are they investigating? Is there anything else in Kaer Morhen worth their covetousness?"

Vesemir said, looking at Lynn.

"Lin En, will it be the time for you to come back..."

"No, teacher, you can rest assured about that," Lin En shook his head again and said firmly, "Since we entered Kaedwen, we have avoided every city, town, and village along the way. It can't be our fault."

Tissaia on the side also said: "Master Vesemir, when we came here, we did deliberately avoid populated areas, and I think now is not the time to hold anyone responsible."

Lin En walked outside: "Everyone, if we continue to discuss here, we won't get any results. Why don't we just go over and see what their intentions are." Tishaya also followed.

"I'll go with you. You're good at fighting, but not necessarily at other things. You won't refuse the company of a high-ranking sorceress, right?"

"Of course, Ms. Tishaya, it is our honor to have you accompany us."

Since someone was needed to guard the castle, Lynn, Lambert and Tisha went there together.

With the help of Tissaia's reconnaissance magic, the three of them quickly found the team of Kaedwen scouts on a necessary route.

The six riders were riding on their horses and didn't notice the three people hiding on the nearby hillside.

"We're three against six. I have the advantage. I'd just slaughter them."

Lambert said fiercely.

The Wolf School had once experienced the Kaer Morhen Massacre, so they were wary of outsiders setting foot in the Blue Mountains.

What's more, these soldiers were obviously not lost travelers, nor were they hunters who went into the mountains to hunt.

At first glance, it seems that he came prepared.

Even though Lambert usually hates his identity as a witcher, he will show no mercy to anyone who threatens Kaer Morhen.

But Tishaya looked reluctant.

"These soldiers are only following orders. Let's observe and observe for a while."

Although Tissaia is a high-ranking sorceress who possesses all the glory and honor, she is still unwilling to do such a cruel thing as taking a few lives casually.

"Why are we still observing? If we let them find Kaer Morhen, it will be too late."

"Don't worry, Lambert."

This time, Lin En also stood on Tissaia's side.

It's not out of soft-heartedness.

If his family is threatened, he will still go on a killing spree.

However, if you think about it carefully, it would be useless even if you kill all these people.

If these people are truly Kaedweni soldiers, regardless of their purpose and who sent them...

Preventing them from going back is not a solution to the problem.

Because their owners can still send other people.

Therefore, we must find a way to scare their owners as well.

But soon, he had an idea.

But this requires Tissaia's help.

……

Everyone's inference was correct.

This group of riders were actually Kaedwen soldiers who came to conduct reconnaissance under the orders of King Henselt, who ruled Kaedwen.

However, the purpose of their reconnaissance was not for Kaer Morhen, but because Henselt wanted to gain more land under the sun.

The country of Kaedwen is located in the northeastern corner of the known world.

To its north, there is a piece of land of medium size called the Ispadon Autonomous Territory.

Although it is called a dominion, it is not independent, but an enclave of Kovir.

The country of Kaedwen is hated by everyone and is very isolated among the northern countries because its successive kings have never done good things, but have done a lot of disgusting things.

Therefore, the Northern Kingdoms often impose trade embargoes and international sanctions on Kaedwen.

Everything else is fine, but the country of Kaedwen is seriously lacking in iron resources.

Without iron, it would be impossible to produce weapons and armor.

However, Aedirn and Redania, which are neighbors of Kaedwen, are unwilling to export iron ore to Kaedwen.
