From Demon Hunter to Lord of the Empire

Chapter 28: The Variables of the Sword of Fate

Level up increases health while increasing physique, plus increasing skill level increases physical fitness. Lan’s physique had already reached the peak of mortals, and he began to gradually move towards inhumanity, one step closer to the days when he wrenched his wrists with trolls.

But at the same time, this near-map-clearing approach wiped out Sintra’s mission. Although it once again spread the reputation of Lannister, it also slowed down the speed of Lann’s upgrade again.

You’ll have to think of another way to upgrade quickly. Lane pondered.

At present, the least efficient way to gain experience is killing, and after these demonstrations of bandits killing robbers, a person can only provide single-digit experience. Unless you have mastered effective skills and are unmatched in battle, this cannot be the main way to gain experience.

This is followed by trivial tasks for neighbors, catching thieves, solving crimes, etc., similar to the side quests in the game. It may take five or six missions to be able to move up one level.

At present, the most experienced is the previous [Competition Competition] and the current [Military Training] series of missions, which are almost equivalent to the main mission of the game, and you can upgrade one level every time you complete a stage.

There was actually another assumption in Rann’s mind. If this system is really the same as in the game, there should be a “demon hunting mission” dedicated to hunting monsters, and experience points are between trivial side quests and main quests, which is also a good way to level up. And hunting monsters must also gain more experience than hunters.

It is a pity that even with Lann’s current Sintra single-handedly picking out the first combat power, he does not have the confidence to go to the wild to hunt demons single-handedly. It’s not a professional mouth, it’s as ridiculous as having an Olympic fencing champion go to Africa to dry lions.

It’s not okay to take soldiers with you, once or twice, Lan can’t afford the casualties caused by frequent soldiers to hunt demons. How many times in the original work did the official monster eat up, and finally the demon hunter must appear? It’s all lessons, and professional things still have to be left to professional people to do.

Just as Lan was thinking, there was a sudden commotion outside the barracks, and a blacksmith who looked specially dressed walked in, holding a slender sword box in his hand.

The blacksmith walked straight to Lan and bowed: “Lord Count, the sword you put here to reforge is ready, I will send it to you.” ”

Lan’s eyes lit up, and he immediately opened the sword box after sending the attendant to reward the blacksmith. I saw a slender sword lying inside, but the length of the forearm was much shorter than an ordinary sword. The hilt was intricately carved and forged into the shape of a swallow with a gauntlet, embellished with crystals of various sizes.

It was truly a delicate sword, more like a ceremonial weapon than a weapon. But as a gift for the little girl, it was just right.

“Bring the black wind and set off to the palace!” Rann happily ordered his attendants.

At the Lannister Mansion, just as Lane was changing clothes, Hardy came up to report.

“Young Master, Advisor Mossack is visiting. ”

Before the words fell, Mossack’s face appeared from the other side of the door. Lane found that his usual kind smile had vanished without a trace, replaced by a cloud.

“Why did Uncle Mossack come to me? Shouldn’t you go to teach Ciri during the day? ”

Mossack shook his head, “That’s why I came to you, Rann. Ciri hadn’t been to class for five days, and the queen said she was sick. ”

Lane put down his hand that was sorting out his clothes, only to feel that Mossack’s expression was too solemn, and something was wrong: “And then?” Your expression seems to indicate that you are dealing with something far more severe than Ciri’s illness. ”

Mossack nodded: “Ciri is not sick, but he is no longer in the castle.” ”

Lane wondered, “When did she leave?”

It’s also not true, the queen lied that Ciri was sick, but the purpose was to cover up Ciri’s departure from you – that’s the point, right? ”

Mossack nodded: “That’s right, your reaction is fast. The truth is – Ciri was secretly sent to the Kingdom of Verdon to meet his fiancé, Prince Christine. ”

With these words, the atmosphere of the entire room dropped to freezing point.

Lane slammed the packaged gift box on the table. After so many explicit hints these days, he already understood why the people in the court always obstructed his meeting with Ciri in every way.

To be honest, Lane really had no idea about Ciri at this stage, and a mature soul from the afterlife could not have that kind of idea about a child under ten years old. Even if it is no longer illegal for Rann now, it is still immoral.

And for Ciri to be sent to make peace, Lan never cared. Because according to the inertia of the plot, this peace will not succeed, and Ciri will also be sent back safely after completing his first meeting with Geralt, and everyone is happy.

But Queen Carranser’s concealment and distrust in the process made Lanne disgusted and even angry.

Knowing the future of Rann is still so, not to mention Mossack, who has watched Ciri grow up since he was a child, he has long regarded Ciri as a junior. Now this likable little girl was secretly sent out for marriage under her cover, and it was this little girl’s own grandmother who did this, and he didn’t even seem to have the qualifications to be angry.

And something more serious is ahead.

“Calm down, Rann, we have much more to face than that. Mossack said, “The next thing I want to say is what I came to you for today:

Just three days ago, when the marriage convoy reached Blochron, Ciri fled the convoy and strayed into the territory of the dryads. We went into the forest with Verdon’s soldiers to look for Ciri, but everyone including Ciri and the soldiers were never heard from. ”

This is the plot of “Sword of Fate”, and it will be fine. At this thought, Rann was about to open his mouth to comfort Mossack, but keenly detected something wrong from the druid’s mouth.

No, three days ago? Although most of the plots in his memory have been blurred, he clearly remembers that the entire “Sword of Fate” spans only two days and one night, and Geralt and Ciri have already left the Tree Fairy Forest, and at the same time run into Mossack who came to pick up Ciri.

Now, the time has passed by a day, and the news coming from the front is still silent. According to the original, Mosssack, who should have been in Blochrom a day earlier, discussed things in his own house.

What went wrong? Where exactly is the change in the whole plot.

After thinking about it, there is only one answer – and that is Lane himself.
