Chapter 4: Witcher



When Hu Yong fell into darkness, the life of the poisonous ghoul had also come to an end.

He fell to the ground five or six steps away from Hu Yong, holding the wound on his neck tightly. Emerald green blood flowed all over the ground. His pupils gradually dilated and lost their luster.

An unknown amount of time passed like this, and when it seemed that everything had settled, light suddenly burst out from the darkness, illuminating the entire room.

At the same time, in the unknown space that was completely shrouded in darkness, an extremely bright light suddenly burst out from somewhere, illuminating a figure entangled in the darkness.

[Detection that the opening task has been completed] Reward: a set of suitable general equipment leather armor set, a general quality steel sword, a general quality silver sword, 1 combat skill point, 2 attribute points.

】……

…In the restaurant of the small building, Hu Yong was gradually enveloped by the light, and his whole body became transparent, as if he no longer existed in the current world.

After an unknown amount of time, a drug emerged from the light and merged into Hu Yong's body.

Only a moment later, Hu Yong opened his eyes, his eyes were dull, his hands kept grabbing his clothes, and waving them in the air from time to time, as if trying to grab something.

After a while, sunlight shone through the window, and Hu Yong's breathing became heavier and heavier. Cold sweat began to appear on his body, and his skin became wet and sticky, and emitted a foul odor.

At this time, another drug appeared in the light and was injected into Hu Yong's blood vessels along the flashing silver lines.

After that, he had a violent reaction, as if he was having an epileptic seizure, followed by nosebleeds, violent coughing, and finally vomiting, until he could only retch and nothing came out, and finally he lay exhausted on the ground covered by light, motionless.

Time keeps passing...

…The sun sets and night falls.

During this time, Hu Yong's skin was soaked with sweat, then gradually dried and began to heat up.

The pulse became intermittent, but maintained normal strength.

He didn't wake up and had no special reaction.

The next day's sunlight shone on Hu Yong's face, but the light had disappeared at some point.

As if feeling the sunshine, Hu Yong finally woke up. When he opened his eyes, his pupils were like those of a wolf...

... "Am I still alive..." As consciousness regained, body perception gradually recovered.

Hu Yong sat up from the ground in confusion, feeling as if his body had been reborn. He felt as if he possessed infinite strength and powerful destructive power.

He stretched his arms and stood up by supporting himself on the ground.

He casually brushed the dust off his clothes, stretched his muscles, and adapted to the changes in his body.

While thinking about entering the system interface.

As soon as you enter, a column of system logs pops up, and the log interface is refreshed directly to the bottom column.

Hu Yong rubbed his temple, turned to the top page and read carefully what happened when he was unconscious.

[It is detected that the host has no independent consciousness and will automatically proceed to the Green Grass Trial.

[Hu Yong (Witcher)] Constitution: 15 Spirit: 16 Strength: 14 Agility: 13 Resistance: 21 Seal: 1 Attribute Points: 6 (3 bonus points, 3 upgrade points) Talent: Witcher (Causes 50% extra damage to monsters) Skills (Combat: 2/Seal: 1) Power Strike/Trial of Grass (Reduces the effect of poison by 75%)/After reading every message carefully, Hu Yong closed the system interface with a complicated expression.

"So, I completed the Trial of Green Grass while I was unconscious and became a real witcher. Not only did I get rid of the poison, but I also gained the same physical qualities as the traditional witchers in the game?

But does this mean that I have lost my fertility? I feel a little uncomfortable and I always feel a little weird. "

The mutation of the body caused all attributes to almost double, no longer belonging to the ranks of ordinary people, and also used the ability to cast seals, but the seals at this stage are probably useless, with only a little bit of seal power hanging pitifully on the panel. It is better to save the skill points to add one seal at a time.

Hu Yong came back to his senses from the sudden surprise, took a breath, and felt the new life.

At this time, a pungent stench came. Hu Yong followed the smell to look at the source of the stench. More than three meters to his left, there was a zombie that had begun to rot on the ground. The blood around the corpse had lost its emerald green luster and looked like a pool of green paint.

It seems that the enhancement of senses is somewhat inconvenient in some aspects. It will probably take some time to get used to automatically filtering these smells.

Open the task interface, look at the completed tasks, and click on the reward column.

As soon as I entered, I saw the most dazzling silver sword in the reward column.

The magic-quality silver sword Toharnemo was used a few times during the transition period when playing the game.

It feels just average. After all, in the early stages you usually look for orange relics to make the transition, and later on you build your own demon hunting suit. Who would use yellow magic items?

However, compared to games, magic items in reality should be considered relatively rare and precious. I searched most of the village ruins before I found a somewhat rusty iron sword. For the other swords, basically only some hilt and blade fragments were left.

After clicking on the receive button on the interface, a white light appeared on the dining table that had been mostly destroyed.

The white light dissipated, and two long swords and a stacked leather armor set, including a breastplate, gloves, pants, and boots, appeared on the table.

He walked to the dining table, touched the breastplate with his left hand, and threw it out for identification.

[Standard Leather Armor of the Kingdom of Temeria (Light Armor)] A four-piece set consisting of a chest armor, gloves, pants, and boots.

General Item Armor Value: 13 Resistance increased by 10% Movement Speed ​​increased by 5% Set Effect: Explosive Power increased by 7% (Never mind the advisors and their plans.

I trust my soldiers.

—Foltest) [Temerian Guard Longsword (Steel Sword)] General Item Sharpness Value: 15 Increases Strength by 9% when blocking and Agility by 5% when counterattacking [Toharne (Silver Sword)] Magic Item Sharpness Value: 29 Increases damage to evil spirits by 25% Increases damage to vital points by an additional 50% Increases Strength by 12% and Agility by 21% when stabbing. He spent some time putting on the leather armor and carrying the two longswords on his back. From the outside, he looked exactly like the witcher in the game.

If players of The Witcher 3 saw this, they would probably hold their wallets and sigh that a new DLC has been released.

Hu Yong looked at the attribute points and skill points. After experiencing the previous battle, he had already made his own decision that the attributes should be developed comprehensively, otherwise if one aspect lags behind, the battle will fall into a dangerous situation.

Decisively invest one point in Constitution, two points in Strength, and three points in Agility so that both Physical strength and Agility reach 16 points and are on par with Mental strength.

Two combat skill points were added to quick attack and defense, two basic and core skills. As the skills were activated, two memories appeared in the mind.

After a moment, Hu Yong, who had received the two memories, came back to his senses. He slightly turned sideways, quickly drew his sword, and used a set of extremely swift, strange and ruthless sword techniques from the Cat School in his memory. He ended with a swift stab of the sword, turned half a step left, and sheathed the sword.

The cat school's sword skills are still better, purely based on speed and technique. The bear school's sword moves only rely on force and momentum to suppress others. Every move is a life-or-death struggle, and a style of fighting with injuries in exchange for lives may be okay in games, but in reality it is completely asking for trouble.

What's more, few people play the bulky Bear School in the game, and the only famous one is the New Year's Greetings Sword Technique.

Feeling the power growing stronger in my body, I looked at the sun outside the window. Since I couldn't tell the direction, I would just walk towards where the sun rises.

Since we are going to the wild, we must have food and water before we find a new village or town in the wild. We can't go to the wilderness to survive empty-handed.

Hu Yong had no choice but to slowly search for daily necessities in the village. After searching for a while, he didn't find any food, but he did find about a hundred copper coins, which should be the currency of this world, and four small silver coins.

Finally, we found the ruins of a tavern that had collapsed more than half in a corner of the village.

During this time, Hu Yong searched most of the buildings in the village but did not see any traces of other zombies. There were only some residual traces. He didn't know whether they had left the village or hid under some ruins.

The tavern collapsed so badly that it was almost unrecognizable. If it weren't for the big hole in the side wall that showed the tavern counter that was the same as in movies, TV shows and games, I probably wouldn't have recognized it, even though the counter was mostly covered with broken bottles.

Hu Yong crawled into the ruins of the hotel, which were littered with mutilated corpses. It seemed that people had hidden here after the attack, but they still couldn't escape.

Hu Yong walked around the half-collapsed beam and headed towards the counter. After taking two steps, his nose twitched twice, and he smelled a hint of disgusting rot from the strong smell of blood and dust in the air.

Calming down, I amplified my senses, and the next moment I could distinguish strange sounds from the slight sound of wind and insects. The sounds coming from behind the counter became clearer and clearer, and the sound of sharp claws scratching on the wooden board was transmitted to my brain.

He slowed down his pace, drew out Toharne with his left hand, and walked towards the counter in a unique defensive posture.

Just as he walked to the counter, a zombie roared out from the shadow behind the counter. Hu Yong was prepared and took a step back to the left. The zombie pounced past Hu Yong, and before it landed on the ground, a whistling sound of cutting the air came from behind him.

Quick attack!

The moment he stepped back, he stabbed the sword into the back of the head of the zombie that was still in the air in front of him, then drew out the silver sword and stepped back a few steps to avoid the blood spurting from the wound.

In the blink of an eye, the zombie lost consciousness while still in the air, not understanding what was happening, and fell to the ground, dead.

Hu Yong looked at the fallen body indifferently, swung the sword, spilling the blood on the blade, sheathed the sword, and then continued to walk to the counter to look for what he needed.

After some effort, he dug out some dry food biscuits that were wrapped well and not stained with blood and dust from the counter and the ruins, as well as about thirty copper coins, seven small silver coins and one large silver coin.

In the end, there was really nothing to take, so I had to fill my leather water bag with water at the entrance of the village, and headed out of this ruined village into the wild towards the sun, and began my journey as a witcher...
