Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job properly

After killing the two ghouls, Wayne did not let down his guard. Instead, he held the electric blade in his hand and quietly waited for the magic power inside it to be recharged.

After all, the ghoul is just a side dish attracted by the corpse, and the real master who killed the soldiers has not yet appeared.

Three minutes later, when the magic power in the electric blade was recharged, Wayne gripped the dagger and walked deeper into the mine.

This mine is old and has a huge internal space. I don’t know when it was built. Because it has a roof to cover it, it is probably used as a warehouse.

Looking around, there are many cut-shaped stone building materials stored inside the cave, and there are burning braziers used as lighting in various places in the cave.

After a brief glance, Wayne did not run around, but slowly explored inward along the direction of the smell of the corpse.

After searching for the smell of corpses for several dozen meters, he came to a tunnel that seemed to have been recently excavated.

Wayne discovered that a dozen corpses dressed as soldiers were scattered inside and outside the corridor. They had long since disappeared. Most of them died in miserable conditions. Their bodies had been slashed in many places with sharp weapons, and they were basically no longer human. This is consistent with the kind of demon spirits. Monster characteristics.

Demon spirits are born from extremely strong negative emotions and will feel endless and indescribable pain. They are full of anger, hatred and jealousy, so they hate and are jealous of living people, and they want to kill all humans.

Like other evil spirits, they are invisible, so they are not harmed by fire, poison, or bleeding weapons. Because of this, basically only spellcasters who can use magic, and monster hunters who are expert monsters can deal with them.

Seeing this, Wayne became even more vigilant. He immediately added an enhanced version of Quen's shield to himself before continuing along the corridor.

The interior of the corridor is not too long, and after only walking about fifty meters, we have reached the end of the corridor.

Looking at the scene at the end of the corridor, Wayne immediately discovered the cause of the whole incident.

It turned out that there was a stone wall made of bricks connected to the end of this corridor. However, at this time, whether it was the work of the miners or not, the stone wall had been broken into a huge gap that allowed people to pass.

Although Wayne did not risk going deep, he just poked inside the gap and discovered that behind the stone wall there should be an underground tomb of unknown age.

Many coffins carved with exquisite shapes are neatly arranged inside the tomb, which is a large tomb of the joint burial type.

Wayne could even feel the air flowing in the tomb with his skin. It was estimated that there were other exits to the tomb.

Obviously, if there is no mistake, the cause of this incident should be an excavation accident.

The miners accidentally dug into the outer wall of an unknown underground tomb. Without considering the consequences, or in other words, under the instruction of someone, they directly destroyed the tomb, attracting attacks from the demon spirits inside the tomb.

It was just pity for the group of soldiers who came to investigate. If someone had reported the whole cause of the matter in advance, they would probably directly entrust professional warlocks to solve the problem instead of sending soldiers who did not pose any threat to the demon spirits to die.

After detecting the information, Wayne did not continue to investigate further, but slowly exited the corridor.

Although this matter has not been 100% investigated, it is not his job alone.

Ten minutes later, Wayne returned to the ground and told Keira and Triss all the information he had discovered. After hearing the information, the sorceresses were first surprised, and then expressed He expressed his contempt for Baron Colbert.

Obviously, the baron deliberately concealed this matter. He did not want to take any responsibility for his mistakes, so he concealed the cause of the matter and wanted to treat it as an accident.

However, the two sorceresses will not accuse them, this is not their job, and when the commission is completed, they will naturally report the truth of the matter to the king as royal advisors.

How to deal with the specific follow-up is up to King Foltest himself.

After listening to Wayne's report, Keira looked at the witcher with admiring eyes, and praised:

"As expected of an excellent demon hunter, Wayne, if this matter is entrusted to those soldiers, it will definitely not be as efficient, and there will be casualties."

"Okay, now that we know that the enemies are monsters mainly demon spirits, please give us a little more time. After we are ready, let's clean up that catacomb."

In fact, regardless of any combat profession, it is the same as a demon hunter. If you obtain the corresponding information and find a targeted strategy before the battle, then you will get twice the result with half the effort.

For example, to deal with demon spirits now, if you confirm that the enemy is a demon spirit in advance, everyone prepares more magic props that can restrain the demon spirit, and it will be much easier to clean up the tomb later.

Similarly, as a demon hunter, Wayne also needs to prepare for combat. To deal with these demon spirits without these entities, he chose the recovery-type swallow potion, the wolf potion that increased agility, and the tawny owl potion that increased mana recovery. .

Originally, he also considered whether to use the cat's eye potion for dark vision, but after thinking that he was walking with two female sorceresses who could use the lighting technique, he decisively abandoned this idea.

Although it is not impossible to withstand the toxicity of Cat's Eye Potion, drinking too much potion is not an easy experience.

After he finished meditating and added the evil spirit oil to his master-level silver sword, Keira and Triss also completed their preparations.

"Wow, Wayne, your face looks so scary. It's like you're seriously ill. It's so pale and bloodshot." Kayla was very surprised.

"Yes, I have also read such records in books. Demon hunters can use their abnormal organs and special potions to imitate the abilities of some monsters to enhance their own strength."

"These are the research results of the sorcerers during the Demon Hunter Order period."

"It is a pity that when the Demon Hunter Order was breached, much of the knowledge in this area was taken away or burned by some thoughtful people."

After seeing Wayne's ugly appearance after drinking the witcher's potion, the two sorceresses were slightly surprised, and then began to discuss their knowledge about witchers in a low voice.

In this era, warlocks are elite talents who combine multiple professions such as mages, scientists, researchers, and even doctors.

If it were said that a demon hunter would have to undergo ten or twenty years of training before becoming a warrior.

Then warlocks may have to go through thirty or forty years of knowledge study and various magic experiments before they graduate.

It can be said that every famous warlock is a scholar with extremely profound knowledge.

Hearing the discussion between the two sorceresses, Wayne's mind moved and he thought of Arethusa College on Thanede Island in Temeria.

Most of the knowledge accumulated by their demon hunters was indeed lost in a turmoil hundreds of years ago. As a result, most of the current demon hunters can only survive by relying on the legacies left over from the time of the Order.

Not only was it split into many schools of thought, it was also forced to stay away from its hometown and dispersed around the world.

But after so many years, not only have there been no major improvements in the various technologies of demon hunters, but they have gradually disappeared and withered due to the death of many demon hunters.

Perhaps, a lot of knowledge that would be helpful to demon hunters could be found in the historic Arethusa Academy.

However, Wayne is only thinking about this idea now. At this time, the Warlock Brotherhood is at its strongest, and there are countless powerful people in the major colleges. They have a lot of wariness about the profession of demon hunters. If they mess around at will, , if it attracts their attention, it may lead to further suppression by the warlocks.

The three of them chatted and kept moving forward, and soon followed the route Wayne had taken and arrived at the stone wall at the end of the corridor.

As a man and also the warrior guard of this team, Wayne took the lead and walked at the front of the team.

He stretched out his hand and made an Alder sign, which directly scattered the other soft bricks on the stone wall, and opened the gap that could only allow ordinary people to get in, opening a door large enough to accommodate two people.

And such a loud movement seemed to have aroused the vigilance of the demon spirits in the catacombs, and some faint wailing sounds began to spread in the catacombs.

Seeing this, Keira reached out from her pocket and took out a magic item like an oil lamp.

With the continuous chanting of spells in her mouth and the input of a large amount of magic power, the originally extinguished oil lamp quickly ignited a faint blue flame.

While the flames were burning, a semicircular blue magic shield visible to the naked eye was also propped up with Keira as the center.

Seeing this semicircular blue shield with a diameter of nearly five meters, Triss sighed with emotion and said:

"Wow! Exorcism Shield, is this a magical protection item you made, Keira?"

"With this shield, no monster in the ghost can get close to us until it is broken."

Hearing this, Kayla raised her chin slightly proudly and hummed, and then said:

"Triss, have you forgotten? I have the highest rating in the academy in terms of protection. Even Dean Margarita can't compare to me in this aspect."

Triss nodded appreciatively. Every sorceress who can be sent to each king is the best graduate in the academy. This is one of the reasons why the Warlock Brotherhood can be so strong.

With this layer of protection, she can cast spells inside the shield with peace of mind.

Triss took out a fiery red round orb that looked like a ruby, placed it in the palm of her hand, and said with a smile to Wayne, who was standing in front of the team:

"Hurry in, Mr. Witcher."

"Clean up here early so we can take a hot shower when we go home. I'm looking forward to your dinner tonight."

Wayne nodded and glanced at the magic items in the hands of the two sorceresses. Even a layman like him could detect the powerful power of these two items.

The ensuing battle also confirmed his suspicion. He originally thought that it would be a difficult battle for the three of them to face a dozen or even dozens of demon spirits.

But what Wayne didn't expect was that Keira was supporting the spirit-expelling shield the whole time. No demon spirit could break through the shield's protection and attack the three people inside.

The fiery red orb in Triss's hand, driven by her magic power, can continuously release various fire magics. Even if faced with the siege of five or six demon spirits at the same time, these large-scale fire magics can Kill those invisible demon spirits in a very short time.

Two sorceresses, one for protection and one for attack, turned Wayne standing in the shield into a decoration. He just held the master silver sword in his hand and concentrated on guarding the two sorceresses to prevent any possible accidents. .

It only took the three of them half an hour to clean the entire underground tomb, and there were no accidents in the process.

This result made Wayne a little embarrassed. He was fully prepared, drank magic potion, and applied sword oil. However, he was defeated by two beauties without even making a single move during the entire task.

At the same time, he also gained a deeper understanding of the spellcasting profession of Warlock.

If we say, don't make an appointment with the witcher, don't let them prepare for the battle, this is the secret of winning the witcher in the battle.

Likewise, when dealing with spellcasters, it's best to cut off their hands or pull out their tongues before they cast magic.

Otherwise, once their spell is completed, there is a high probability that you will be the one who dies.

Of course, there is one exception, and that is the natural nemesis of the caster, the magic-blocking gold.

If you have a lot of magic-blocking gold on your body and have the opportunity to get close to those spell casters, then even if you are an ordinary soldier, you will have a chance to defeat these master mages who used to be superior.

From the discussion between Triss and Keira, Wayne knew that this was probably an elven tomb thousands of years ago. Judging from its structure and style, it should belong to the elven city where Vizima City was originally located. And it belongs to a civilian tomb.

However, due to the long history, the local aboriginal elves have no inheritance, so no one has discovered it for so long.

Although it was certainly not as full of riches as the elven royal tombs, after Keira and Triss discussed it, they decided to divide the loot they found equally among the three of them, so that the trip was not in vain.

Of course, as a man who basically had no contribution in the battle, the task of rummaging through all the coffins, searching for burial objects, and collecting the demon dust fell on Wayne.

However, Wayne is quite happy with this kind of work. These elves have been dead for thousands of years, and their bones have turned into dust. He has no psychological burden, but opens them one by one like opening a treasure chest. Open the museum and draw prizes.

It is a pity that this is only a civilian tomb, and due to ventilation, all the funerary objects have weathered and are not well preserved.

He rummaged through the loot for more than an hour, and probably found gold and silver jewelry worth less than a thousand orens and some gems that had lost their collection value.

However, the demon spirit dust left by dozens of demon spirits was more valuable and was divided equally between the two sorceresses and was not included in the loot.

At dusk, before the sun went down, the three of them completed their mission and returned to Keira's mansion.

While the two sorceresses went to the city hall to collect their reward, Wayne also completed the expert-level commission he received from Kayla, gaining forty experience points and an expert-level treasure chest.

He did not rush to open the treasure chest, but took his maid Maisie to a nearby high-end food store to buy all the ingredients needed for dinner.

By the way, I also took the time to go home and find Lala. In exchange for some gifts, I asked her to tell her brother Fitz that the appointment at the Fisherman King's place was going to be broken tonight, and I hope it can be postponed for one day.
