The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 90 Fire in the hole
The dust formed by the mushroom cloud did not dissipate until a long time later.

At the place where the huge fireball fell, the reptilian monster had disappeared, leaving behind only a large pit with a diameter of about ten meters, a charred interior, and slowly emitting green smoke.

When the monster made up of corpses was evaporated without leaving any residue, the mother tree of flesh and blood seemed to have died with it, leaving only a huge empty shell.

Even when the witcher and the sorceress approached it, it did not react.

The two of them could not sense its breath.

Lin En could clearly feel that it had not turned into a tree again, but was really dead.

The two then began to rescue others and free them from the storage sacs hanging in the air.

……

Although Tyrion's eyes were closed while he was trapped in the sac, he had a very strange feeling when he merged with the sac wrapped with branches.

Although I can't move, I can't open my eyes.

But he could sense what was happening outside.

The feeling was both wonderful and terrifying.

Because he knew that this strange tree hung him and others like bacon, definitely not just for the sake of appearance.

He had already despaired.

Until the appearance of the witcher and the sorceress, hope was brought back.

Therefore, when he was freed from the storage sac by Lyn, Tyrion did not stand up immediately, but directly hugged Lyn's thighs.

I won’t let you go, even if I die.

His throat was choked with sobs and he could not utter a word. He could only make excited hoarse sounds like a wild beast.

Lynn and Triss looked at each other.

It's really helpless.

It took him some time to soothe the short businessman who was crying like a two-hundred-year-old child, but he finally managed to calm him down.

Let Tyrion stand aside while Lynn and Triss continue to rescue people.

Every time they rescued someone, they would either express their inner joy through actions like Tyrion, or they would keep saying words of gratitude.

The last person to be rescued was Sir Royce, who believed himself to be of noble blood and prominent family background.

Our Sir's face looked so ugly that even a witcher who had taken several bottles of high-level potions in one breath did not look as bad as him when standing next to him.

As handsomely as Sir Royce had been dressed before, he now looked as disheveled as ever.

The black cloak draped over his shoulders was tattered, with more holes than the clothes worn by a beggar from Novigrad, and his once gleaming armor was in tatters.

But no one laughed at him.

This is not only because the other people rescued from the storage sac are similar to him.

It is also because Sir Royce now finally understands some truths.

He no longer had the condescending attitude he always had before.

All those who needed to be rescued had been rescued, so everyone walked outside.

But the group had not walked far when Lin En, who was leading the way in front, suddenly turned around.

Amidst everyone's surprised and puzzled gazes, he returned to the dead flesh and blood mother tree.

He used his master-level silver sword to dig open the roots of the giant tree.

Finally, a young woman was carried out from it.

The woman rescued by the witcher was not a human woman.

This can be seen from her long pointed ears.

But not an elf or half-elf either.

Because no elf or half-elf has green skin.

Not to mention, this woman used leaves as clothing to cover her body.

The witcher found no wounds on her body. Seeing that she was just unconscious, he carried her on his shoulders and left with the others.

...coming out from the depths of the forest.

Everyone finally stopped and rested for a while.

Triss drew a magic circle on the ground and placed various spellcasting materials in every corner of the magic circle.

Since the portal opened this time needs to teleport multiple people, magic power alone is not enough and it must be used together with spell materials.

The disappearance case that was commissioned to be investigated by the witcher and the sorceress has now been solved.

The culprit that caused the disappearance of the merchants of Kelak and the army sent by the king was the flesh-and-blood mother tree, which had been alive for an unknown amount of time.

According to Triss, the flesh and blood mother tree is actually still in its infancy.

That’s why it gives people a feeling of being “weak”.

But when Ser Royce, Tyrion and others heard this, their faces turned pale.

I don't know where this weak statement came from.

You have to know that these people had been captured by the flesh and blood mother tree without realizing it.

If there were no witchers and sorceresses, a very tragic end would definitely be waiting for them.

Sir Royce was even pessimistic and believed that even if all the standing troops of the Kingdom of Kelak were dispatched - a total of 1,500 fully armed soldiers, it would be difficult to defeat the monster.

What's more, the Kingdom of Kailak could not afford the painful cost of losing all its standing troops.

But in this way, the plan to open up a trade route was aborted.

This forest is too old.

Even if a Mother Tree of Flesh and Blood was killed, no one could be sure that there was only that one monster in the forest.

It’s better to go by sea.

The worst that can happen is that you earn less, but it’s better than losing your life.

As for King Brohen...

His Majesty the King will definitely not be happy.

But what can we do?

The Kingdom of Kelak was just a small kingdom with an area roughly equivalent to that of the province of Temeria.

It is on par with the Kingdom of Viden to the south, but not as powerful as the Kingdom of Sidaris to the north.

There are so many things that make King Broheng unhappy.

Anyway, there are too many lice and it doesn’t itch.

……

Marillion's face was pale as he waved goodbye to the witcher and the sorceress.

He said that he would repay the witcher for saving his life by singing a song that would spread across the continent.

Lynn did not comment on this.

Ser Royce and Tyrion's men followed the bard and passed through the portal leading to the city of Kerak one after another.

The two of them walked at the end.

Before entering the portal, both of them looked at the green-skinned woman who was rescued by Lin En but was still unconscious.

They were both from the Kingdom of Kerak, and the Kingdom of Kerak had been in constant conflict with the dryads living in the forests south of Brokilon.

Of course they could recognize that this green-skinned woman was also a tree spirit.

Although both of them knew that if they handed over a tree elf, especially a living tree elf, to King Brohen, they would definitely be rewarded handsomely.

But the two said nothing.

They just expressed their gratitude to the witcher again.

Then he walked into the portal.
