Chapter 561 562. Heading to war

Lan En still subconsciously covered his shoulder sockets that had grown new flesh.

Having inflicted such deep cuts on himself, heart palpitations were unavoidable, and Lan En was used to it.

With the support of magic potion, the witcher's body does not have to worry about bacterial infection, which has saved him a lot of trouble.

"I feel like I'm getting a little stronger now."

Lan En stood up with his hands on the ground and spoke to Mentos in his mind.

"The effect of [Muscle Strengthening Organ] is so immediate? Is this normal?"

The biological intelligence brain then projects the subject's biochemical indicators and marks certain indicators in red.

"The growth rate of muscles is much higher than that of bones, so the strengthening process of a normal Space Marine will basically be completed within a few months. Considering your super high metabolic efficiency, it only takes less than a year for you to strengthen your bones. time. Then the muscle strengthening is expected to be completed in less than two months.”

"But even then, what you're feeling now isn't muscle growth. It's muscle hyperemia due to the effects of hormones."

What Mentos said was right.

Lan En hasn't put on his clothes yet, so on his now naked upper body, the already well-developed muscles are bulging, with obvious lines and full arcs.

He looked like he had fully warmed up.

Of course, his body temperature also rose, just like after a full warm-up.

It is estimated that he will maintain this state for a period of time before the muscle development is completed.

"Three surgeries have been completed."

Lan En opened and closed his fists, feeling the contraction of muscle fibers, and murmured in a low voice.

"Among the conventional Space Marine surgeries, the most direct improvement in combat effectiveness has been completed. Although the remaining surgeries are also very powerful, most of them are surgeries to improve survivability and functionality."

"Yes, sir, congratulations." Mentos congratulated in a British accent, filling up the noodles.

Then he started to pose the next questions.

"But now, we must also face a choice - should we continue to take the enhancement route of regular Space Marines, or should we take the route of Primaris Space Marines?"

The three extra parts of the Primaris Space Marine surgery, if carried out according to the process in memory, must be followed immediately after the [Muscle Strengthening Organ] is implanted.

It is not impossible for regular Space Marines to later become Primaris Space Marines.

This change is known in my memory as 'crossing the Primaris boundary'.

But it is by no means an easy and simple matter for a complete regular Space Marine to cross the boundaries of Primaris.

Even with the physical strength of Space Marines, the failure rate of this step will be as high as 61.6%. Because these superhuman warriors were almost literally 'skinned and torn apart' in the process.

And the operation time will also be due to their tough and unyielding bodies, sometimes as long as several years.

It’s time-consuming, labor-intensive and risky.

"Don't think about that just yet, Mentos."

Lan En wiped the scattered blood stains on the ground while drinking [white honey] sip by sip.

"It's not up to us how we do the highly technical steps of Primaris surgery, it's up to this."

As he spoke, the witcher patted the Ankh cross in his pocket.

"In the world of ancient Greece, with the advanced level of the first civilization, I believe we can get the technology we need there. But whether we can go back and fully tap the technology of the first civilization, we need help. Only then can we see the results.”

The research on the cross-world beacon has been handed over to Margarita.

And to discover the legacy technology of the Forerunners, Cassandra's help will definitely be needed.

"First, let's do what we can."

The witcher said so, and the biomind agreed.

——

The day after the operation was completed, Lan En was ready to go south.

The war between the Nilfgaard Empire and Cintra is taking place there, and only a few people now know how the war situation has developed.

These people are great nobles, kings, strategic advisors to kings, or intelligence chiefs to kings.

As for the specific situation of the battle, no one except those on the battlefield has the ability to discern the truth.

The Nilfgaardians seemed to have planned this for a long time, and their espionage system put the entire northern kingdom to shame.

According to Margarita's complaint, even Redania, the most professional spy agent, King Vizmir began to reprimand his spy chief Dijkstra in public for his insensitivity.

This is a very dangerous sign for an intelligence director.

The northern countries' vigilance and concern for the southern empire have continued to rise over the past few decades.

But in the end, they lost their first-mover advantage and were unable to compete with the Southern Empire's long-planned research on the northern countries.

Perhaps after this war, the intelligence systems of northern countries will withdraw a lot of resources from their neighbors and invest them in the south.

But in this sudden war, in less than a month, they had no time to do anything and could only watch the situation develop.

Outside the city of Gos Velen, Margarita, Berengar, and Siloden Giancardi came to see Lan off.

The sorceress looked still angry. She knew she couldn't persuade Lan En, so she was looking at the young man fiercely even now.

It doesn’t look like a farewell, but rather like saying, ‘Those who can’t be persuaded to come back should go and die immediately’!

And just as Berengar expected, the sorceress now looked at him and the red-bearded dwarf with a bad expression.

It made him a little worried whether the other party would directly greet Lan En with a fireball after he left.

These people are Lan En's friends in Gos Velen. Yuna and Fergus can't get involved at all, so it's better not to worry them.

"Just like we agreed."

Lan stood in front of Margarita and assured her sincerely.

"After I rescue my friends from the battlefield, I will return immediately. This is a war between nobles annexing each other and fighting for each other. It is like dog eating dog. I will not get involved deeply."

Although Margarita still had a vicious look on her face, the worry in her eyes still took over as parting approached.

"Heh, it's best."

Although she still said cold words, Margarita couldn't help hugging her, and then left without looking back.

Lan En set off, and he still took Poppy with him. Because when he took off his armor, the Kaedweni warhorse could still carry him for a distance.

After watching him leave, the three of them walked through the mud and headed back inside the city walls of Gos Velen.

Margarita was far apart from the other two, which made Berengar and Siloden look very embarrassed along the way.

But after entering the city, a messenger with an eagle feather in his leather hat squeezed out of the noisy crowd entering the city and went straight to the sorceress.

Berengar and Siledon looked at this scene and didn't feel anything wrong.

This is a city that thrives on Arethusa, and the sorceress's influence is everywhere.

Half of the couriers running around in the city serve the college. This scene is completely normal.

Margarita took a letter from the courier's panicked hand, and then a flash of magic flashed and the envelope opened automatically.

Immediately afterwards, Berengar first saw the sorceress's face turn pale.

After that, even the slow red-bearded dwarf screamed in surprise.

"The plague is upon us! Dear young lady, you look a bit..."

Kind of like a dead person.

The letter fell to the ground, and some battle reports were scrawled on it.

Berengar's untrained eyesight only caught one sentence——

"The Nilfgaardians massacred the city of Cintra! They massacred everyone in the city! Every one!"

So Berengar knew why Margarita looked so ugly.

Because she understood, and based on this understanding, she realized something.

The man she cared about, the man who just left, that different witcher, will start from now on.

He was already caught up in the war.
