Ten minutes later, Geralt was smiling, holding two fist-sized gold nuggets in his hand, feeling very happy.

Although the nest of the human-faced demon bird was full of carrion, bird droppings and bones, and the smell was worse than the sewer, but after Bai Lang skillfully rummaged through it, in addition to these two gold nuggets and some coins, he also found two natural stones.

of gems.

Wayne did not choose the two more valuable nuggets wrapped in unknown excrement, but took the two shining gems.

This made Geralt look at him more favorably. As an experienced veteran who did everything from eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling, although he earned much more than ordinary people, when it came to spending money, he was not comparable to ordinary farmers.

of.

Demon hunters engage in dirty and dangerous jobs every day, and are discriminated against by many unscrupulous people. They are also mutants, so they generally have great psychological pressure. In order to relieve their own pressure, almost every witcher goes to a tavern.

, a frequent visitor to brothels and casinos.

Every time they sacrifice their lives, the rewards they earn will be spent within a few days, and most of them will live in poverty. This is not surprising.

As a modern person, Wayne doesn't actually care about these small amounts of money. He has a flexible moral bottom line. As long as he is willing in the future, whether it is robbing the rich and giving to the poor, eating gangsters, or investing in business, the money he earns will definitely not be

It's comparable to doing a witcher commission.

On the contrary, it was these brothers from the Wolf School and other highly skilled demon hunters that he cared about.

In this medieval magical era where the weak prey on the strong, only by mastering power and uniting those with power can we resist danger and control our own destiny.

After crossing the lake, the two of them walked along a mountain road toward the back mountain. They walked for another ten minutes until a huge cave loomed. Geralt slowed down and said to Wayne behind him.

:

"Wayne, there is a Cyclops in the cave ahead. Many demon hunter apprentices died at the hands of this monster named Old Spearhead."

Seeing that Wayne was a little surprised, Geralt added:

"This is part of the final trial."

"The apprentices participating in the trial must find a way to pass through this cave guarded by the Cyclops."

"Actually, cyclops are stupider than trolls, and they move very clumsily. They are very powerful and spend most of their time sleeping in caves."

"As long as the apprentices are quiet enough and don't make any noise, they can pass through the cave safely."

Wayne nodded, thought for a while and asked:

"Then let's kill this Cyclops this time?"

Geralt paused, looked up at Wayne, considered for a few seconds, and said:

"Wayne, since we are going to team up to complete tasks in the future, we should get to know each other better."

"I have always believed that intelligent monsters, like humans, are intelligent creatures, regardless of high or low."

"As long as he does not endanger the safety of others, I will not take the initiative to harm him."

"In this regard, I hope you can agree with me."

Seeing Bai Lang's candid conversation, Wayne also showed a sincere smile and said:

"You know, Geralt, I am a half-elf, a non-human race, and now I have become an alien in the eyes of others, a demon hunter."

"Don't worry, I am more receptive to other intelligent beings than you think."

Upon hearing this, Geralt took a deep look at Wayne, nodded slightly, then took out two bottles of white witcher potion from his pocket, put one of them into Wayne's hand, and said:

"This is a cat potion that can enhance our dark vision and allow us to see things clearly in the dark."

"Just follow me later, be careful not to make any noise, and let's sneak out of the cave quietly so as not to wake up Old Spearhead."

Wayne nodded. His agility was already higher than that of ordinary demon hunters. A stealth mission like this would not be difficult for him.

Soon, after drinking the cat potion, the two of them walked into the cave one after another.

After so many years, Geralt still seems to be quite familiar with the route in the cave. He led Wayne slowly forward against the wall, sneaking in the darkness for five or six minutes, and then climbed up to another via a platform.

A high ground.

As they moved forward, a huge snoring sound kept lingering in the ears of the two people, and it became louder and louder as they moved forward.

However, Geralt ignored the source of these snorings and quickly led Wayne along the wall for another five minutes before finally finding the exit of the cave.

Before leaving the cave, out of curiosity, Wayne turned his head and looked towards the source of the cry.

I saw an ugly giant four or five meters long, carrying a huge wooden stick on his back, lying on a flat ground, wearing only simple animal skins, with one hand protecting his navel, and the other

He stuffed it into his trouser pocket, snoring comfortably and sleeping soundly.

Seeing this scene, Wayne felt happy. Perhaps in the mind of this Cyclops, those demon hunter apprentices were the monsters that broke into his house and tried to harm it.

Now for decades, no new demon hunter apprentices have come here, so this guy can live a stable life.

After watching for a few seconds, Wayne followed Geralt out of the cave. When his eyes adjusted to the sunlight outside, a strange scene appeared in front of him.

On a flat land dozens of meters away from them, they saw five tall strange creatures, whose entire bodies were made of boulders, gathered around a large pot, eating food and playing around. They could even hear

Some kind of strange singing, as if there was a celebration.

They looked ugly, and their movements were a little slow. Each of them seemed to be a drunken fat man. Although the words they spoke were stuttered and could not be heard clearly, they were definitely human language.

Geralt, who was walking in front, turned to him and made a hissing gesture, and whispered:

"This is a tribe of trolls. They are monsters that can barely communicate. They are considered an intelligent race."

"Don't talk nonsense later, let me negotiate with them."

"These guys have lived here for hundreds of years and are quite familiar with us demon hunters. Let's try not to have any conflicts."
