The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 334 Our Team Is Growing

The druids in this world, like those in other fantasy genres, have the ability to communicate with animals.

It can even possess animals when necessary.

Druids are not like demon hunters and are not restricted by the neutral code.

"My child, since you are Geralt's descendant and have proven through your actions that you are a friend of the archipelago, the Druid's Circle naturally welcomes you."

"However, I assume that you made a special visit to the Druid's Circle before leaving the archipelago. You wouldn't be here to say hello to me, or just to visit, right?"

Lynn considered his words and said.

"Actually, I come with a request."

Mossak nodded and said, "Please tell me. If we can help, the Druid Circle will not mistreat its allies."

"I would like to invite you to Kaer Morhen to assist us in a study."

"Kaer Morhen? That's the headquarters of your Wolf School witchers, right? Can I go there as an outsider?"

"It's okay. You and Geralt are old acquaintances, and I'm sure Mr. Vesemir will have a lot to talk about with you."

"Hmm," Mossak thought for a moment, "It's been a while since I've seen my old friend. If the master doesn't mind, then it wouldn't be a big deal to visit him. But, what about this research you're talking about?"

Lynn hesitated.

But he soon made a decision.

The performance of Mossack in the original book and the game is enough to prove that he is a trustworthy person.

To put it another way, there is no conflict of interest between druids and demon hunters, unlike warlocks and demon hunters.

So he chose to tell the truth.

"Improved witcher's herbal decoction."

It takes at least ten years for a demon hunter to be trained from an apprentice to mutate into a real demon hunter.

The First Northern War broke out in 1263, just eleven years ago.

Therefore, the mass cultivation of herbal decoctions for witchers should naturally be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

There are plenty of children who are suitable to become witcher apprentices. In this backward, ignorant and feudal era, what is most lacking are children who have been displaced because of the ambitions of the nobles.

But if we don’t want to see only four out of ten apprentices survive, the improvement of the herbal decoction must be carried out now.

"Of course, this is just a request, and it's not compulsory. So, if you can't leave the islands in the short term, I understand. But if that's the case, please keep it a secret."

Why is Lin En so confident that herbal decoctions can be further improved?
That's because an ordinary expert like Thomas Moreau, who is not even a core member of the Brotherhood of Warlocks, can create a secondary mutation with only his own financial and material resources.

This is enough to prove that the Demon Hunter still has huge room for improvement in mutation.

During the time he spent with Gede, Lynn learned more about the father of the demon hunter and the period of the cult:
In fact, after Alzu and Cosimo created the Witcher, the warlocks discovered that the Witcher did not have the magical talent they had imagined, so they abandoned the Witcher plan and stopped funding Alzu and Cosimo.

In other words, during this period, the Witcher Cult was supported entirely by Alzu and Cosimo's own funds.

This situation lasted for thirty years. The witchers finally made the outside world accept their existence through their own efforts. However, Alzu and Cosimo had new ambitions at this time.

They left behind the Witcher Order to pursue new goals.

The departure of the two witcher fathers not only left the witcher cult leaderless, but also triggered an economic crisis.

After all, when the Order was still a toddler, everything about the Order was maintained by Alzu and Cosimo;

However, the child had not yet grown up and was still a teenager when his "fathers" left him, and this also left him without any source of income.

Elan of Larvik, who was still a member of the Order at the time and later became the founder of the Griffin School, had thought of a solution:
That is to try to lobby the noble lords, hoping that they can provide regular funds to the Witcher Cult so that the cult can continue to operate.

Unfortunately, all of Elan's attempts ended in failure.

It can be said that basically from the moment Alzu and Cosimo left, all research on witcher mutations came to a standstill.

As for the subsequent split of the Order and the rise of various schools, that was a further decline (referring to the study of mutations). This is also why the herbal decoctions of each school are different, and the characteristics of each school's demon hunters are also different.

Because their herbal decoction recipes were not completely preserved from the sect period.

That's why the survival rate is so low.

But Lynn is different from them.

Whether it was the Witcher Order or the various schools that followed, they were unable to conduct further research on the Witcher mutation because they did not have control over the means of production.

But Lynn is different.

Although he was only a baron in Toussaint, the rosé wine produced by Casteldaccia was enough to make him richer than the earls of the northern countries.

Plus, the business that Dudu was managing for himself in Novigrad was becoming more and more prosperous...

Even if the research costs more money, he can afford it.

"Improve the herbal decoction? Do you want to... I understand."

Mossak did not continue speaking.

He was of course aware of the low status of the demon hunter.

As for the witchers, Mossack actually sympathized with their plight.

After all, he himself has lived for hundreds of years, and he has witnessed with his own eyes how the witcher fell from its former glory step by step into the abyss.

Although he is also a spellcaster, Mossak is disgusted by the actions of his peers.

This is roughly equivalent to:

When a child is born, the parents first despise the child for being incompetent and incompetent, but then the child gradually wins the recognition of the people around him through his own efforts, and the parents feel that the child has stolen their limelight.
Seeing that the child was getting better and better, he finally couldn't stand it anymore and took action himself, taking the lead in instigating, smearing and spreading rumors, causing people around him to isolate and exclude this child who had done nothing wrong.

Then, watching this child suffer the cold shoulder and hardships of this world, instead of showing any sympathy or pity, they burst into laughter and told everyone they met, "I told you this kid would be useless!"

And this is the dirty work done by fellow warlocks.

It was because he knew that his fellow sorcerers would never do anything anthropomorphic that Mossak understood Lynn's thoughts better.

"I see. I understand. Well, I promise you."

Now it was Lin En's turn to widen his eyes, a look of disbelief on his face.

"You just agreed so easily?"

"I once received a favor from an old friend. He was also a demon hunter. If it weren't for him, I would have died long ago. Now, since it's that old friend's descendant who has come to me, then I can consider it as repaying his kindness."

Originally, Lin En had prepared several excuses.

Even prepared to be rejected.

After all, Mossak is a prominent character in the original novel.

And he's not like Tissaia.

Lin En knew that both Tishaya and Margarita valued the academy and students more than their own lives, so he could use this as a bargaining chip to make Ms. Tishaya serve him.

But Mossack is different.

The other party did not have any obsession in the original plot, and Lin En did not have the chips to convince the other party.

He can only do his best.

But he didn't expect that before he could even exert his strength, the other side...

But no matter what, the result is good.
