The mastermind behind this started by creating a strange story

But even so, he almost couldn't hold it firmly. After steadying his body, he successfully lifted it up.

"Hiss, how much strength is needed to wield this weapon?"

After feeling the weight of the weapon, Simon put the half-sword back on the wall.

He didn't want to get hurt, so he shouldn't use weapons if he didn't have the strength.

Simon left the practice area and came to the literature area. For him, the bookshelves full of literature were safer, at least he would not be injured by accidents.

After casually pulling out a book that looked quite old, the dust accumulated on the old book seemed to be awakened all of a sudden, and suddenly penetrated into Simon's lungs with his breathing, making him cough uncontrollably.

He waved his hand to sweep away the dust, and his sight that was obscured by the dust returned to the book again. After wiping away most of the dust that blocked the text with his palm, a line of scribbled handwriting was revealed.

Guide to Alchemical Plants (I)

The moment he saw the title of the book, Simon raised his eyebrows, his eyes focused on the word "alchemy", and then he opened the book.

The first page of the book was a catalogue, which listed rows of plants he had never heard of. The content of the book was descriptions and drawings of various herbs.

After quickly scanning the catalog, he found several herbs that he recognized.

"It seems that these books are not heavenly books."

After putting the books back in their places, Simon felt much more relieved. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to understand these books. Now that he found that he could understand them, did that mean that he could also prepare alchemical potions?

It also doesn't say that alchemical potions can only be prepared by demon hunters.

Thinking of this, Simon looked towards the research area, walked over there, picked up the yellowed document on the desk and started reading.

There was not much content in the document, but it instantly made Simon excited.

Because, this yellowed document records how to become a real demon hunter!

He knew what a real demon hunter was. The book "The Demon Hunter" gave a detailed description of the demon hunter's power.

And now, the opportunity to become a demon hunter is right in front of him.

As Simon read on bit by bit, his originally excited expression gradually calmed down. As expected, everything has a price.

The cost of becoming a demon hunter was greater than he had imagined, but the rewards were also great.

If you become a demon hunter, you will gain a strong physique, keen perception, a long lifespan, convenient magic, and the power to fight demons.

But the price that comes with it is mutated eyes, an infertile body, and most importantly, the risk of life during the transformation process!

If ordinary people want to become demon hunters, they must go through the Trial of Green Grass.

The process of the Green Grass Trial is to take a special green grass alchemy potion, and then let the potion transform the body and physiological structure until the body is completely mutated and turned into a non-human body.

This is also the most important step in becoming a demon hunter. If you don’t go through the Green Grass Trial, you will never gain the power to fight demons.

Moreover, the Green Grass Trial was an extremely painful process, and many people suffered complete mental collapse because they could not endure the painful transformation of their bodies.

According to historical records, the survival rate of the Green Grass Trial is only three in ten.

This is a test of strength where you risk your life.

Simon felt very disappointed. The chance to become a demon hunter was right in front of him, but the side effects dealt him a heavy blow.

The side effect of being infertile alone was enough to make him give up the idea. He didn't want to be alone and have no descendants to bury him after his death.

Simon, feeling a little cold in his heart, put down the document in his hand and picked up a glass bottle containing a strange liquid. According to the documents, the liquid contained in it was the so-called herbal potion.

Alchemical potions do not expire, so no matter how long they are left, they will remain effective.

As long as he has the courage to drink the potion and endure the painful body transformation, he will have the foundation to become a demon hunter.

But... he couldn't bear to do it.

"This potion isn't green, so why is it called Green Herb Potion?"

Shaking the glass bottle in his hand, Simon's sight swayed left and right along with the strange liquid, but he finally put it down.

Although he wanted to become a demon hunter, the side effects were too great and directly shattered his idea, but -

Simon looked at the rows of bookshelves in the literature area. Although he would not drink the herbal potion, he was very interested in the alchemy books.

It can be studied.

As this idea came to mind, Simon also understood what to do for the rest of the vacation.

Even if he doesn't become a demon hunter, he can still mix these magical alchemical potions, right?

But forget it today. We’ve already spent enough time. It’s time to go back.

In the following time, Simon would go to the inheritance cave to learn how to prepare alchemical potions whenever he had nothing to do.

Through online searches, he discovered that the herbs recorded in the books can all be found in reality.

Although some herbs had slightly different names, he was able to determine that they were the same herbs through the drawings of the herbs.

And as he became more familiar with the route, Simon even found a shortcut to the cave. As long as he entered the mountain at the beginning and turned left and right in the forest, he could reach the magical place in less than an hour.

This also greatly reduces the travel time.

This kind of days lasted for more than half a month.

"According to the latest news, the hell demon that appeared in Romania has been found in Poland, and many people have even witnessed the demon. I hope that the general public will not go out in the near future, and call the police as soon as they encounter danger..."

"Let's take a look at the latest report. It is said that the Czech Republic has discovered the remains of a mysterious witcher and is actively investigating..."

The latest news was being broadcast on TV, but Simon, who was getting ready to go out, wasn't paying attention. He didn't even hear what the host was saying.

After all, he doesn't like watching the news. His father is the only one in the family who likes to care about national affairs, but often these national affairs have nothing to do with ordinary people like them.

Today Simon plans to go to the Heritage Cave again to learn more about herbal knowledge. After all, herbal medicine has a long history in Poland.

In addition to the well-known herbs such as mint, fennel and chamomile tea recorded in the book, he is now becoming more and more interested in less common herbs.

Learning something you didn’t know and then feeling your knowledge growing is a very addictive feeling.

He gradually came to like the feeling of studying, although he didn't hate studying at all.

Chapter 434 The Devil Attacks

"Let me see. Four parts of cypress stem fruit and one part of dwarven liquor. If you don't have dwarven liquor, you can use water of life vodka instead. It can also be considered a strong liquor."

"And two portions of water essence, which is two portions of 100 milliliters of distilled water."

"After mixing, simmer over low heat. When the potion turns dark green, it's done."

Inside the cave, Simon sat alone in the study area, comparing the contents of old books and placing some things he had mail-ordered into glass containers.

These things are the materials for making cat's eye drops. After studying for more than half a month, he couldn't help but want to try to make the potion himself.

Although the ingredients were not exactly the same, he felt that the effects of the brewed potion should be similar. After all, they were all strong liquors, so the effects should be similar.

The effect of cat eye drops is to see in the dark, just like a cat can see at night.

This is also the easiest to brew among all alchemical potions. Other potions either have insufficient materials or are too troublesome to brew.

As Simon slowly stirred the mixture in the container with a glass rod, the originally distinct colors began to gradually blend.

The flames accelerated the process, and the color of the potion began to become uniform.

Before long, a dark green color began to emerge from the mixture, and gradually expanded over time until the entire potion was dyed dark green.

"It's done!"

Looking at the cat's eye drops in front of him that had completely changed color, Simon was overjoyed. This represented the first step to his success.

Now, you just need to leave the cat's eye drops for a while, and when the dark green precipitate appears, the potion can be drunk to gain the ability of night vision.

Although the idea is good, Simon also knows that it is unrealistic. After all, the potion was originally prepared for demon hunters, and demon hunters are not ordinary people.

Every medicine is poisonous to some extent. This saying is especially evident in the witcher's alchemical potions.

In addition to giving people powerful and magical abilities, these alchemical potions can also damage the human body with poison. If the demon hunter does not have a mutant mutation, drinking the alchemical potion is equivalent to drinking poison.

Only a demon hunter can withstand the poison and break down the poison residue in his body over time.

"So, I mixed a bottle of poison?"

Simon pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose and looked at the potion he had just made. The dark green color was very consistent with the appearance of poison.

"Alas, I just realized after refining it that I can't use it."

After the initial excitement wore off, Simon slumped in his chair and cleared his mind.

He didn't know why he was so keen on everything about witchers, even though he clearly didn't want to become one.

"Did you seduce me?"

Simon casually picked up the badge from his chest, stared at the wolf head on it and muttered to himself.

This was the witcher badge he found on the bookshelf. On it was a silver wolf head amulet with a ferocious, roaring wolf head and sharp edges.

According to the description in old documents, witcher badges of different shapes represent different schools. The badge he found was a wolf's head, so this cave was left behind by the Wolf School.

It is said that there are six main schools of demon hunters: the Wolf School, the Cat School, the Griffin School, the Bear School, the Viper School, and the Maned Lion School.

Of course, there are some other small schools, but they are not written in the book.

The emphasis among different schools is also different. The cat school is lighter, which can be compared to a lightly armored assassin in a game; the bear school has high attack and thick blood, and is a heavily armored warrior; and his wolf school knows a little bit of everything but is not proficient in anything, and is a balanced warrior.

Although Simon is not a demon hunter yet, he has already regarded himself as a demon hunter apprentice of the Wolf Clan.

After all, he already had the Wolf Faction badge on his neck.

The Demon Hunter Badge is not just a decoration to show identity, it also has a series of functions.

The badge is very sensitive to all magic, whether it is spells, curses or charms. At the same time, the badge can also sense the presence of demons. When the presence of demons is detected, the badge will vibrate and tug on the chain hanging on it to remind the demon hunter to pay attention to the surroundings.

Simon certainly couldn't refuse such a practical and handsome badge.

After putting the Wolf Faction badge back on his chest and sitting in a daze for a while, Simon sat up and put the potion he had prepared aside. Alchemical potions would not expire, so it would not matter how long he kept it.

After tidying up the mess on the table, he prepared to go back.

The sky outside was a little gloomy. It was not a good day today and it was windy in the morning.

He went down the mountain along the path he had figured out, and in less than an hour he returned to the entrance of the town.

But compared to the past, the town is a little quiet today.

Maybe it's because of the bad weather that no one wants to go out.

Simon walked on the empty street, thinking randomly in his mind.

However, the ground was a little messy, and there were traces of running and falling, which caught Simon's attention.

After walking towards home for a while, a glaring bloodstain suddenly appeared in front of my eyes. The dim yellow street suddenly turned blood red, which was very conspicuous.

This is? ! !

Seeing the blood, Simon rushed forward in panic, but before he could think of anything, the badge on his chest suddenly vibrated.

It was a movement that had never happened before, but it was so eye-catching in this quiet moment.

This shock made Simon's heart sink. He looked at the street ahead, but it was as if he saw the bloody mouth of a devil.

Simon held the vibrating badge tightly, and even though the edge stung his palm, he did not let go. Instead, he walked forward step by step like a puppet.

In a moment, he arrived at the door of his house.

At this moment, the badge was vibrating more violently than ever before. Simon could no longer tell whether it was the badge that was causing his hands to tremble, or whether it was the fear of the scene behind the door that was causing him to tremble.

"Click~"

The door handle made a turning sound, and suddenly, Simon's pupils shrank and his body tilted to the side.

"boom--!"

The broken wooden door suddenly exploded, and a huge shadow suddenly jumped out from the house.

The scattered wood fragments brushed past Simon's body like bullets and shot into the back. What appeared in front of him was a demon with blood dripping from the corner of its mouth.

The demon had human-like hands and legs, but it crawled on all fours like a dog. There was no reason or emotion on its human-like face, and just looking at it would make fear rise from deep within one's heart.

The demon's body, which was larger than that of a grizzly bear, made it quite oppressive. At this moment, it noticed Simon, who was emitting fear.

Fear-filled flesh is their best food, and it has set its sights on Simon.

But Simon's attention was on the room behind the demon, where there were two figures that he was very familiar with. At this moment, the two figures were lying motionless in a pool of blood.
