The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

"Of course, my dear sister."

Galen chuckled, and said calmly, "The Tower of the Dead and the wizards of the Star Luo Society have fought each other. We cannot intervene in the war between those extraordinary people."

"But if you want to take advantage of this opportunity to get your hands on the capital, I will not agree."

"Then there's nothing to say."

Hester waved his hand expressionlessly, and the army behind him charged immediately. Upon seeing this, Prince Galen also ordered the army to start fighting.

Under the night, the two armies started a fierce battle!
……

In the new calendar year 827, the harvest season, July.

The Lost Continent, the Duchy of the Swamp.

The Principality located in the south of this continent is far away from the Principality of Taal. Unlike the latter, which is mostly a plain, most of the Principality of the Swamp is covered by plants.

Forests and swamps are the main tone of this country.

"Almost, it's ahead!"

Sauron sat in the carriage and looked out through the window. Although it was the harvest season, the Swamp Principality was still lush and lush.

Herod!
Outside, the horses neighed suddenly, and Sauron frowned slightly. After stepping out of the carriage, he found that he was surrounded by many gray wolves.

Dozens of gray wolves bared their teeth and stared at the carriage.

Sauron frowned, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. According to the description on the map, this area is not far away from Green Marsh Town.

Unexpectedly, there will be so many wild beasts.

"Get rid of them."

Sauron shook his head, and a thought flashed in his mind. In front of the carriage, a figure dressed in a black robe and a coachman was ordered to jump directly from above.

Seeing this, the pack of wolves immediately bit the black-robed man.

However, the black-robed man was very calm, pulled out a cross sword, waved it at the surrounding wolves, and wiped out all the wolves in a few strokes.

Looking at the figure of the man in black robe fighting, Sauron had a trace of thought on his face.

"The combat effectiveness should be kept at about [-]%."

Sauron's eyes flickered, and he was very satisfied with the black-robed man. After the pack of wolves had been dealt with, he also came under the carriage and lifted the mask on the black-robed man's face.

Beneath the mask, is a pale face.

If there were any nobles from the Western Region here, they would definitely be able to recognize that the black-robed man in front of him was the Duke of Ferrs who had ruled the Western Region for decades.

However, at this moment, Phils has already been refined into a corpse puppet.

In the battle of Giethoorn a few months ago, in the duel between two great knights, Orens defeated Firth and became the final victor of this war.

And Phils' body was directly collected by Sauron.

According to the materials found in the Nomaros tower, it took Sauron more than a month to successfully refine Fers into a corpse puppet for him to drive.

After that, Sauron set out to attack the realm of official wizards.

First of all, he needs to complete the solidification of the mad warlock Beast Blood Boiling. Sauron has basically met the requirements for twelve beast runes. As for the blood of beasts, it didn't take him long.

Therefore, the current Sauron is only short of one condition, which is to solidify the beast's blood boiling.

The soul of the beast king!

According to the records of witchcraft crystals, the soul of the beast king is one of the three essential conditions for the boiling of beast blood. However, compared with the first two conditions, the soul of the beast king has many choices.

In a conventional sense, the soul of any herd leader can be called the soul of the beast king.

The easiest way for Sauron to obtain a Beastmaster's Soul is to find a pack of wolves on the grassland and kill the Wolfmaster to extract the Beastmaster's Soul.

It's just that, using different beast master souls, the effects after solidifying witchcraft are also completely different.

For example, if Sauron uses an ordinary soul of the beast king, even if he can successfully solidify the mad spell - beast blood boiling, its power will not be too strong.

But if Sauron used the soul of the beast king from a powerful creature, then the effect of witchcraft would be even better.

Therefore, the choice of the soul of the beast king is very important.

Crazy Art - Beast Blood Boiling is the first witchcraft solidified by Sauron, so he attaches great importance to it, and it is absolutely impossible to use the soul solidification witchcraft of ordinary beasts.

So, after a month of searching, Sauron finally discovered his goal.

That was the news that he spent a hundred magic stones to get from a wandering apprentice. After the magic tide gradually recovered, a red-scaled crocodile appeared in the Marsh Principality.

That is an extremely powerful monster!
It is entrenched in the swamp near Green Marsh Town, posing a great threat to nearby towns. The king of the Marsh Duchy immediately sent troops to crusade after learning about it.

However, the three high-level knights went to the green swamp, but they all died!
When this news was sent back to the capital, the Principality of the Swamp was in an uproar. The king held a council overnight to discuss how to deal with the red-scaled crocodile. After suggestions from the bachelors, he finally issued a reward order.

Anyone who can kill the Crimson Scaled Crocodile can be granted the title of Earl in the Swamp Duchy.

The title of the Swamp Duchy is not of much value to Sauron, but the Crimson Scaled Crocodile made him interested, so he set off directly for the Swamp Duchy.

After traveling for several days and nights, Sauron came to the vicinity of Green Marsh Town.

If that Crimson Scaled Crocodile Dragon is really as powerful as the rumors say, its soul may be the choice for Sauron to solidify the madness technique - beast blood boiling.

The sun was setting, and evening was approaching.

The carriage driven by Phils, the puppet, came to Green Marsh Town before dark. Sauron found a tavern at random, but found that it was already overcrowded.

In the not-so-big tavern, more than a dozen tables were filled with people.

The maid with a hot body and a seductive appearance shuttled back and forth in the restaurant, bringing food to the guests, and would only smile coquettishly when touched by a drunkard from time to time.

"so many people?"

Sauron raised his eyebrows, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. According to his investigation, Green Swamp Town is just a very remote town in the Swamp Principality.

There are only a few thousand permanent residents here.

But now, the excitement in the tavern made Sauron a little unexpected, but after thinking about it, he immediately understood that maybe all of this had something to do with that red-scaled crocodile.

Since the Crimson Scaled Crocodile Dragon ate three senior knights, the Swamp Principality has issued a high reward.

Therefore, many adventurers are naturally attracted, most of them are trash, but they also have expectations, imagining that they can pick up the leak and kill the Red Scale Crocodile, thus changing their own destiny.

Sauron shook his head, and went straight to the bar counter.

"Give me a clean room."

While speaking, Sauron threw out a gold coin. The middle-aged boss behind the counter skillfully grabbed the gold coin, and then led Sauron to a room. (end of this chapter)
