The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 399 The War to Reclaim Cowell

Lynn used the communication box to contact the witchers who were staying in Kaer Morhen, and asked them to gather in Novigrad.

Then, he set off for Novigrad to see Dudu.

Dudu has now acquired almost all of the properties in Novigrad, and his business is booming.

After meeting Dudu, Lynn gave him an instruction.

He was ordered to buy up all the carmine available on the market and to purchase an unlimited quantity.

Buy as much as you can.

At the same time, sell all the indigo dye you have on hand, even if the price drops due to the large-scale sale.

Finally, Lynn also asked him to put up a sign advertising the purchase of griffin eggs at a high price.

Dudu was puzzled by Lynn's instructions, but she still carried them out.

Although Dudu is a shapeshifter, his current status is higher than that of most humans. Even so, he has not forgotten who gave him everything he has now.

So even though he didn't understand Lynn's request, he still did it without hesitation.

Anyway, we have a large and prosperous business now. Even if the instructions are wrong, such a large business is not so easy to squander.

When Lynn asked Dudu to do it, it wasn't because she was an outsider instructing an expert, or because she didn't understand and was meddling blindly.

It's worth noting that the court, family, and army of Cowell and Povis now all wear blue uniforms.

Therefore, over the years, the weavers there have only bought indigo.

The problem is that the reigns of King Edi and King Ride are like candles flickering in the wind, or grasshoppers in autumn; they really won't last much longer.

Once Cowell and Povis take over the government, the Thyssen family will certainly stop buying indigo. Whoever has the most indigo hoarded will be stuck with it all.

The Thyssen family tradition is deep red, but once Istrad regains power, crimson will surely see a surge in price.

That's why Lynn asked Dudu to do that.

Although Lynn, who controls Novigrad, is richer than many nobles, who would complain about having too much money?

Besides, Istrad needs the rouge anyway, so it's better to keep it in the family.

After arriving in Novigrad, Lynn never returned to Raven's Den.

Triss is now able to handle government affairs on her own.

After two years of continuous cleanup, there are now almost no monsters to be seen in Velen, and even bandits and robbers have become endangered species.

Now, the security situation in Velen has greatly improved, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Although it is still under development, life is becoming more and more hopeful every day.

Given this situation, anyone could be in charge in Velen, so Lynn wouldn't be in any trouble even if he didn't stay in Velen.

While waiting for the witchers to arrive from Kaer Morhen, Lynn was not idle either.

In preparation for the upcoming war, he devoted all his time, except for sleeping, to making advanced alchemical bombs and advanced potions.

Finally, two months later.

Escal, Lambert, Letso, Serret, Oakes, Kogrim, Aiden, Gaitan, Gerd, Ivo, George, Cohen, and Raven finally arrived in Novigrad and joined Lynn.

Incidentally, all the new Witchers recruited two years ago underwent a second mutation more than a year ago, and like other Witchers, their bodies have been greatly enhanced.

Although the demon hunters who came to join them filled a room, they were not all of them.

Celda, along with Geralt and Belial, remained in Kaer Morhen.

Like Vesemir, Kelda was an elderly man.

Leave the fighting and killing to the young people; the old folks should stay in the castle and mentor the apprentices.

Belial, on the other hand, believed he was better suited to be a blacksmith than a witcher.

Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise, so Lynn let him play his part in the area where he could better utilize his skills.

As for Geralt, he probably doesn't know that Lynn actually understands him better than he does.

Geralt was the best student Vesemir ever taught.

In every sense.

Judging from Geralt's actions, he is fully deserving of the title of saint.

Unfortunately, this rotten world has no place for saints.

So in the original novel, Geralt and his companions went through so many adventures, the battlefield didn't kill him, and he survived the duel with the world's strongest human sorcerer.

But he died at the hands of those he fought for and protected.

It has to be said, this is really ironic.

So Lynn simply let Geralt stay in Kaer Morhen.

It wasn't that Geralt wasn't strong enough; it was just that Lynn didn't want Geralt to get caught up in mental exhaustion.

As a good brother, Lynn didn't want to force Geralt to make any choices.

If he really did that, he wouldn't be himself anymore.

As for other witchers, they are not so obsessed with remaining neutral. They simply had no other choice in the past, and witchers have been doing this for centuries, so they have always lived a life of hunting monsters for meager rewards.

Now, Lynn is going to lead them down a different path, a path where, from now on, witchers can live openly in the sunlight.

They were also willing to follow Lynn.

……

A day later, Lynn led the witchers, chartered a barge, and sailed to the Marquisate of Targos.

The journey was smooth sailing, and we didn't even encounter any water ghosts.

After disembarking, Lynn led the witchers onto the horses he had prepared beforehand, two horses for each witcher to take turns riding.

It didn't take long to reach Targo City.

At this time, a huge military camp had been built outside the city of Targo.

The Thyssen family flag can be seen being raised in the military camp.

Lynn and his group approached openly from the main road, so the people in the military camp naturally noticed their arrival.

Immediately, a troop of cavalry charged out of the camp and lined up in front of them.

"Stop! Who are you people?"

Lynn raised his right hand, and the witchers following behind him immediately stopped.

Over the past two years, the training courses for Kael'thas' witchers have also included riding skills.

After all, going to the battlefield is no longer about fighting monsters. Even if the speed has surpassed that of a warhorse charging, horsemanship is still an important skill in this era of cold weapons.

Lynn took out the heraldic ring that Istrad had given him from the magic-patterned leather pouch and put it on his hand.

Show it to the cavalry.

"This is..." The cavalry officer's eyes widened, and his gaze towards Lynn immediately changed. "So you are also one of that lord's men. We were rude and apologize. Since you are one of us, please come with me. I will find you a suitable position in the camp."

Lynn shook his head.

"No need, officer. As you may have noticed, we are witchers."

"Although we have a clear conscience, we have to admit that in some people's eyes, witch hunters are no different from lepers, and there may be people in the military who care about this."

"So, my men and I will find a place to camp outside the military camp."
