Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 104 103. Half-murloc sacrifice

After sending away Selena who was very curious about life in the big city, Lan touched the cone-shaped crystal in his back pocket again.

"Rita, are you still there?"

"I'm always waiting for you."

Even though the sorceress opposite had no intention of flirting at this time, her amorous feelings had become her instinct.

The words you say can make every man's bones fall apart.

Fortunately, Lan En's aesthetic standards are now very high, and he is not so confused just because of two sentences.

"Tell me about [Necromancy]. I heard that it is a forbidden spell?"

"Necromancy?! Why do you ask that?"

Margarita exclaimed, as if even mentioning the name of this spell made people feel ominous and taboo.

"The only clue is an insider I caught. He... should be said to have died in an accident. We can't give up this clue. Triss and Keira have done everything they can, but the other party's intelligence His control ability is as strong as Foltest himself. I said, the king should not be involved in the slave trade, right?"

"Absolutely impossible." Margarita said firmly.

"The prohibition of slavery can be implemented in the northern countries because this system is in the interests of the northern countries. The interests of the country are the interests of the king. Although Foltest is not a restrained person, he is definitely smart. There is nothing wrong with this What's the taboo for?"

"Let's talk about [Necromancy]. Lan En, even if the clue is cut off, I will not support you in using this spell!"

The witcher's brows furrowed slightly.

"Rita, those children are about to be transported to the south and trained as bed slaves!"

"That's better than letting the magic power of a land be unbalanced, demon spirits rampaging, and the land power draining! [Necromancy] reverses the flow of the soul! Even if it is temporary, it will inevitably lead to backlash!"

When Lan En heard this, he immediately ground his molars in confusion.

He originally thought that [Necromancy] was banned only because it required high mana from the warlock and the consequences of failure would be serious.

Then as long as he finds a powerful warlock to help him, it won't be a problem.

But I didn't expect that the spell itself would cause harm to the world's environment when cast!

That would be fine if Lan En was a person who would do anything to achieve his goals.

But the reason Gunter O'Dimm threw the body here was because he knew that Lan En was not this kind of person.

I want to free the slaves and kill the mastermind behind it.

These ideas all come from Lane's own moral values.

For this reason, even if he is alone, he dares to fight against the opponent's huge power group to the end.

But because of this, he could not pursue [Necromancy] regardless of the consequences.

Morality is a limitation on oneself. Since this limitation comes from the will of life itself, Lan En will not exceed it.

Because you encounter difficulties, feel tired, and find it difficult, do you cross the bottom line you set for yourself?

What kind of man do you think you are? !

"Understood, I won't think about [Necromancy] again. Let's stop talking this time, I have to meet someone."

"Take care, Lan. I'm sorry, I can't be of much help in this matter."

"Stop talking, Rita. Fifteen hundred orens and two royal advisors, ordinary people will never earn so much money in a few lifetimes, nor will they know a high-ranking sorcerer."

Margarita was silent for a moment and then spoke hesitantly.

"If, I mean if, Lan En. If you really don't have a clue yet, you can go back to Eritu first."

"No ifs."

The witcher flatly refused.

"I won't fail. At least this time, I won't fail."

Before the sorceress could react, Lan En's hand pulled out the alchemical leather bag.

He placed Aaliya not far away with the limp corpse, and he himself followed Selena's directions and came to the altar of the half-murloc.

When he hung up Margarita's "phone", the witcher happened to see a half-murloc on the altar base near the lake. It seemed that he had been waiting there for a long time.

It was precisely because of this attitude that Lan En was sure that the hands and feet on the portal he passed through were inseparable from the half-murloc.

But it's no big deal.

Compared with the chilling glass boy, even the ignorant water ghost can be called "friendly and friendly".

The half-murloc man was holding a scepter-like object, which seemed to be a sacrifice. He has fish scale skin, a stooped waist as high as a human chest, thin arms and thin legs.

Wearing a brass and filter respirator mask on his head, it looks a bit steampunk style.

A few long catfish-like whiskers peeked out from the sides of the respirator.

This is the first time Lan En has communicated with an intelligent creature that is so different from human beings.

After arriving at the altar, the demon hunter was not sloppy at all and went straight to the half-murloc to offer sacrifices.

"Human language, okay?"

"I can speak your language. Very good."

The half-fishman priest was not surprised and started the conversation naturally.

"Did you drag me here? You look like a spellcaster."

The breathing mask of the half-murloc priest emitted a phlegm-like, "gurgling" laughter.

"Spellcaster, I don't know how. It was the great lady who summoned you."

The half-fish man said, raising the scepter in his hand upwards and pointing at the main body of the altar.

It was a beautiful female statue with pointed ears and open arms amidst the waves.

Lady of the Lake.

"Great lady" Lan En crossed his arms and smiled.

"What's the point of finding a lowly witcher?"

"We need a good witcher to do things. There is something very! Very! Dirty in the lake. Now."

"Then how does this lady know that I am a 'good enough' demon hunter?"

"The lady will listen." When he said this, the half-murloc's not-so-serious attitude suddenly changed when facing Lan En.

Holding the scepter in its devout hands, it turns to face the statue.

Said in a ballad-like tone.

"The bubbles rising from the lake, the silent breathing of the trees, the rippling fish, the Lady of the Waves listens to everything and pours out her kindness. You will feel this love, Witcher."

Lan En was unconvinced about the half-murloc's determination.

But he would not question other people's beliefs at the beginning, so he followed the half-fish man and bowed to the statue to show respect.

The half-fish man nodded with satisfaction.

"I am happy to help kind creatures, whether they are humans or half-murlocs."

After Lan En straightened up again, he first expressed his preference.

The half-murlocs here are living in harmony with humans, and there are even human children playing on the base of the half-murloc altar.

In this world where racial discrimination is becoming increasingly acute, this is something Lan En likes a bit.

And then, it’s time to talk about the practical stuff.

"But I think that whether on the water or underwater, mutual help and mutual assistance should be interdependent. To put it bluntly, I have a lot of experience in killing monsters. But I am also in trouble now. I believe Madam is concerned about my troubles. You should also understand something.”

Lan's thumb pointed back, in the direction where Urbank's body lay.
