Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf

Night.

Alchemy room in Kaer Morhen.

"... Astrology and ritual are originally one, or astrology is originally a part of ritual..."

"... It is too difficult and obscure, and with the research of various races, it is too complicated, so it has been separated from ritual to become a separate subject..."

"... However, there are still many connections between the two, such as astrology and crystal balls..."

...

In the refreshing fragrance of cardamom, Ailin sat at the alchemy table and listened to the sorceress telling the mysterious knowledge of ritual.

"Shua~"

The cold female voice stopped, and the pages of the book automatically turned to the last page.

Then it closed, revealing a black book cover sprinkled with silver powder.

"Snap!"

A snap of fingers.

This "Astrology and Ritual" slowly flew back to its original position.

[Ding! Do you want to spend 5,000 small experience beads to unlock the skill ritual? ]

Hearing the familiar mechanical sound, Ailin ignored it.

"Okay, today's class is here." The sorceress said softly.

Ailin stood up and said goodbye to the sorceress and Mary, who was fiddling with the water ghost heart with a "grunt":

"Good night, Ms. Vera! Good night, Ms. Mary!"

"Good night!" the sorceress said softly.

"Good night, Ailin!"

Mary also looked up blankly from the water ghost heart.

After leaving the alchemy room, Ailin quickly ran to the third floor.

"Bang~"

The patterned wooden door closed behind him.

"Hu~"

Ailin breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, by the middle of this class, the small experience beads required to unlock rituals had been reduced to the lowest.

However, in order not to arouse suspicion and to respect the sorceress, he suppressed his excitement and expectations and listened to the whole class.

Now he is home, and he has finally waited for this moment.

Ailin sat on the bed and clicked on the prompt that had not disappeared in his sight.

Magic circle, astrology, magic wand, crystal ball...

Instantly, the ocean of ritual knowledge poured into Ailin's mind, and it gradually stopped after three or four minutes.

Perhaps because of the improved attributes, this upgrade did not bring too much pain.

No, he did not have a splitting headache and blood flowing from his nose like when he upgraded alchemy.

He just felt a slight swelling and pain in his temple, as if he had stayed up all night to study mathematics for five or six hours.

"Ritual learning is really a big pit like alchemy. No wonder wizards and witch apprentices can only specialize in one field for decades before becoming formal wizards."

"If there were no demon hunting notes, I would not be able to get started without more than ten years of research."

Ailin reviewed the new knowledge in his mind.

With emotion, he rubbed his temples, and after another half an hour of relaxation, the swelling and pain in his temples gradually disappeared.

Following.

[Ding! Your skill: Ritual LV1 has been upgraded to Ritual LV2 (0/500)]

After another half an hour of absorption, Ailin rubbed his hands and opened the inventory with great expectations.

[Name: Flesh Giant]

[Type: Magic Ritual]

[Requirement: Ritual LV2]

[Element: Flesh]

[Function: Sacrifice the flesh, blood and bones containing magic power in a ratio of 4:2:1 to gain great power]

[Note: Who are you sacrificing to? ]

While clicking on the ritual with his mind, the materials required for the ritual and various arrangement techniques were deeply engraved in his mind.

Very strong!

Very strong!

From the information obtained, Ailin learned that as long as the sacrifice is in proportion, the amount of flesh, blood and bones sacrificed can be unlimited in theory, and the great power obtained can also be unlimited in theory.

"There should still be a limit, but the side effects of the ritual are not mentioned in the newly acquired memory." Ailin pondered.

The real effect will be known after use.

However, even with the minimum power increase of two times mentioned in his mind.

With his potions, props and spells, it should be enough to face the monsters of the celestial intersection.

"It's a pity that there is no information about the unknown ruins and the group of humans who used the ritual when I obtained the ritual in my memory."

Thinking of this, Ailin sighed regretfully.

He always felt that the unique cutscene foreshadowed something?

It's a pity that the few treasure chests opened later, even the treasure chests that produced gold, did not open similar things.

"Don't think about it, I hope tomorrow's celestial intersection will be a big harvest!"

Ailin shook his head and looked out the window.

The sky of the Ancient Sea Fortress is like a silver moon and twinkling stars.

The blue mountains in the far distance have been covered with a thick quilt, reflecting the moon's light.

The heavy snow stopped yesterday afternoon. Looking at the deep and cloudless night sky, I think tomorrow will be a good day.

It's a good sign!

Ailin thought.

Then he covered himself with a thick silk blanket, and fell asleep with full expectations for attribute points, treasure chests, and experience beads.

…

The next day.

After days of heavy snow, the Killer Lake was indeed frozen.

The lake, the shore, and the hills were all white, forming a vast expanse.

Some low willows, larch, and spruce trees only showed a small corner, and they did not move even when the wind blew.

Until a sudden sound kept approaching here.

"Bang~"

The translucent telekinetic wave instantly blew away the thick snow that could bury a person, creating a path for one person to walk.

It was the Alder seal.

"The winter sun is high and there are no clouds in the sky. Today is indeed a good weather..." Ailin muttered.

After taking three steps forward, he bent his middle finger on his right hand and pushed diagonally upward.

"Bang!"

The translucent wave of thoughts appeared again.

Suddenly snow and fog filled the air, covering his eyes.

When the fog dissipated, Aylin took three more steps, looked at the still towering snow wall in front of him, and sighed:

"It's a pity that the weather is beautiful but the location is not."

While having breakfast in the main castle hall this morning, he also asked several demon hunters how to deal with going out when the mountains were blocked by heavy snow.

After all, they return to Kaer Morhen every year, so they must have a lot of experience.

Unexpectedly, the drunken witcher's unanimous answer was "Not going out!"

It does make sense!

This immediately left Ailin speechless.

But today the "Meeting of the Celestial Spheres - Water Ghost" has cooled down, and it will take at least ten more days to wait for the snow to melt enough to be able to go out.

Therefore, Aylin had no choice but to walk.

From Kaer Morhen to Killer Lake, the original half-hour journey took him nearly two hours.

This was the inspiration he got from using Alder to return to the castle when Hughes and the others were tossed and playing in the sea of ​​snow a few days ago.

otherwise.

The time will have to be extended by at least an hour.

"I finally know why the two demon hunters at the door had such expressions as 'Idiots are hopeless' after repeatedly trying to dissuade them!"

Looking at the snow wall in front of him that was taller than him, and after laughing at himself, Aylin's demon hunter opened his senses and continued to move forward in the original rhythm of "three steps and one step for Alder".

Just like that, after another twenty minutes, Aylin finally reached his destination.

"Bang~"

Another shot of Alder blew the snow wall away.

A dark cave appeared in front of him.

This is the place where Aylin and the Water Ghost King met for the first time. In his mind, it is the most suitable place for hunting large monsters.

The ideal place where the heaven and earth meet!
