The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

Chapter 1 Traveling through another world

In the new calendar year 825, cold winter, thirteenth month.

The Principality of Taal, the royal city.

The biting cold wind whizzed past, rolling up snowflakes like white dragons, the outside world was covered in white, and the snow and ice on the ground was half a meter deep.

As the last month of winter, December is also the coldest month of the year.

Located in the Holy Knight Academy in the north of the city, in a cold room, lay a stiff corpse on a wooden bed. His face was as pale as paper, and it seemed that he had been dead for a long time.

The cold wind howled outside, but the house was dead silent.

"It hurts! It hurts too much!!"

Feeling the tearing pain all over his body, Su Lun cried out in his heart, but trapped in this corpse, he couldn't make a sound.

five hours!A full five hours!
Five hours had passed since Su Lun's consciousness transferred to the corpse. He was suffering from the pain that seemed to come from the depths of his soul. He only hated why his consciousness was so clear.

Passed through, but not fully worn!
In Su Lun's memory, as a programmer, he only worked continuously for more than 20 hours before his vision went dark and he lost consciousness.

Immediately afterwards, he appeared in the corpse.

This pain from the depths of the soul had lasted for five hours, but Su Lun knew nothing about the situation in front of him.

He has a certain ability to perceive the surroundings, and his brain is very clear, but he cannot control the movement of this body.

He couldn't even open his eyes.

"It's snowing outside, so it should be winter!"

Su Lun endured the pain and forced himself to calm down. Although he was trapped in this corpse, he still wanted to get as much information as possible.

crunch!
At this time, there was a sound of pushing the door, and two figures seemed to walk in, patting the snowflakes on their bodies lightly.

Su Lun was overjoyed and wanted to ask the two for help.

However, he exhausted all his strength, but he couldn't make a sound, so he had no choice but to give up, waiting for the two to come to his side.

"Is he Sauron?"

The owner of the voice was a young girl. She walked to the wooden bed, but she didn't dare to get too close, and looked at the already stiff corpse curiously.

"Well, it's him."

At this time, the voice of another older woman sounded. Compared to the young girl, she was much calmer. She not only walked to the corpse, but also lifted the clothes on her upper body.

The pale chest appeared in front of the two of them.

"There is no wound on his body, how did he die?"

The girl's voice was a little puzzled, and she looked at the corpse carefully, but did not find any scars. If it wasn't for the pale complexion, it would have been as if she had fallen asleep.

"It's not sure yet, and we need to check before we can draw a conclusion."

The older woman said calmly, "However, on the surface, there is a high probability that he was poisoned. After all, judging from the recent situation in Night Crow City, there should be many people who don't want him to live."

"Mr. Martha, what do you mean... Sauron died of murder?" The girl looked surprised.

"It's very possible."

Martha lowered her voice, shook her head and said, "The lord of Night Crow City has been missing for more than three months. There are rumors outside that he has been killed."

"From the perspective of bloodline, Sauron is the only successor of the lord of Night Crow City!"

"As long as he is dead, the nobles of the Western Region can logically divide up the wealth of the Swain family, and Night Crow City will return to the control of the Duke of the Western Region."

Hearing Martha's words, the girl couldn't help swallowing.

"Of course, all this is just my guess."

Martha shrugged and said, "Perhaps, this poor little guy didn't die of murder, but maybe a sudden illness."

The conversation between the two women came to Su Lun's ears very clearly.

"Is it really a crossover?"

According to the conversation between the two women, Su Lun got some information, although not necessarily accurate, but also highly credible.

"...well, Evelyn."

At this time, Martha spoke again, and said, "Since you want to become a bachelor, you will have the opportunity to deal with corpses in the future."

"Now, get out your tools!"

"Tools? What tools?"

Hearing Martha's words, Su Lun suddenly felt a sense of foreboding.

"Yes, Teacher Martha!"

Evelyn nodded obediently, then took out a box and opened it. Inside were various knives, iron hooks, clips and other tools.

"Get ready to start." Martha ordered.

"Start? Start what!?" Su Lun shouted in his heart.

Evelyn took a deep breath and took out a small knife from the box, but before she could move, her palms trembled unconsciously.

"You can't do that."

Seeing that Evelyn was too nervous, Martha shook her head, held the other's palm, and pressed the knife against the corpse's chest.

"That's what an autopsy is."

Martha's tone was gentle, and she encouraged: "There will always be some nervousness for the first time, but only by experiencing these can you become an excellent bachelor."

"I remember when I was young, I followed my teacher to dissect a corpse for the first time, and I was almost scared to cry."

"But as soon as you overcome your inner fear, you will understand how interesting autopsy is."

"Unlike the living, a dead body never lies."

"As an excellent bachelor, through the skills of anatomy, you can get all the information you want from the corpse!"

"That's the beauty of anatomy!"

Martha patted Evelyn on the shoulder, her eyes flashed with encouragement, and she said, "Come on, Evelyn, I believe you can do it!"

"Thank you, Miss Martha."

With Martha's encouragement, Evelyn's palm holding the knife no longer trembled, and the tension and fear in her heart gradually disappeared.

"Yes, I can!"

Evelyn's eyes were firm, she held the knife in her hand, and said in a deep voice: "Overcome the fear in my heart, and I will definitely become an excellent bachelor!"

As she spoke, a smile appeared on Evelyn's face.

She finally suppressed the fear in her heart. Next, as long as she completes this autopsy, she will take the first step towards becoming a bachelor.

"Very well, Evelyn."

Seeing that Evelyn calmed down, Martha nodded slightly and said, "Assuming this corpse was poisoned to death, where do you think the autopsy should start?"

"I think... it should start with the chest!" Evelyn replied.

"Yes, let's start!" Martha nodded in satisfaction.

Hearing Teacher Martha's approval, Evelyn's eyes became firmer. At this moment, there was no fear on her face anymore.

The next moment, the knife fell from Evelyn's hand.

"Wait a moment!"

At this moment, a palm suddenly lifted, grabbed Evelyn's wrist, and said in a trembling voice, "Actually... I think I can still save it!"
