"Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!"
A few seconds later, before Vesemir could react, Triss covered her mouth and let out a sharp scream like a little girl, as if she was stimulated.
After shouting a few times, the sorceress pulled her feet out of the gold coins with some effort, then quickly ran to Wayne's side, jumped onto Wayne's back, and clung to the man like a spoiled kitten, asking excitedly, " Oh my God! Honey, so many gold coins. I bet that even if you collect all the gold in the entire city of Vizima, it can't compare to what's here."
"You are so amazing, honey, I don't even know what to do with all this gold!"
Compared to the sorceress's excitement, the old demon hunter Vesemir's first reaction after he came to his senses was a little worried. He looked at Wayne with a complicated expression and asked:
"Child, this much Auren, I don't think anyone in the entire Kingdom of Temeria can come up with it. Even the king's treasury can't have so many gold coins."
"Can you tell me where these gold coins come from?"
Wayne hugged Triss, who was lying on his back, back to his chest, then looked at Vesemir with a serious expression and said, "Okay, teacher, I am actually ready to explain it to you."
"Wait until tonight, when we two, master and disciple, have a drink together, I will explain everything to you."
"But don't worry, I have definitely not gone astray. These are the rewards I received from others after I helped them."
"And I completed the commission, which is definitely a glorious deed worthy of being called a hero by others."
Upon hearing this, the old demon hunter looked at his apprentice deeply, then nodded and said, "I believe you, Wayne. You are a good boy. I knew it a long time ago."
"However, the amount of gold is so astonishing that I still think I might be dreaming. Even in my dreams, such absurd scenes would not appear."
"You know, our pockets as demon hunters are always empty all year round, and sometimes we even go hungry. Who hasn't dreamed of getting rich?"
Wayne laughed, hugged Triss who was clinging to his chest, and said, "This is a bad habit of many people, teacher. When people get old, they like to be content with the status quo and are afraid of change."
"But the world is big and it's changing every day, and we have to adapt to those changes."
Upon hearing this, Vesemir also showed a smile on his face. He glared at Wayne, snorted and said, "It's not your turn to teach me a lesson."
"You come up with something new every day, especially this year. There's the giant army, a large magic circle with a diameter of dozens of kilometers, and now a mountain of gold. How can an old man like me adapt to it?"
Wayne felt a little ashamed when he heard this. He had indeed made too many big moves this year. Any one of these things would be a legendary experience if it happened to other people, but they happened to him so frequently. How could he let those people accept it easily?
He gave the old man an apologetic smile and said, "Don't worry, teacher. There shouldn't be any major changes in the next few years."
"You are the Grand Master of our Wolf School. I will leave the children I brought back to you for training. There is no need to force them like in the past. We will only keep the most talented ones. I will bring back many more children in the future."
"However, regarding the Trial of Green Grass, I am not going to use it on these children until our cult warlocks can ensure a success rate of more than 90%."
"We still have a lot of time, and the inheritance of the school is not urgent. But don't worry, the new demon hunters won't take too much time, and our lives will get better and better."
After visiting the gold, Wayne took the two people back to the hall of the castle. He did not cook tonight, but took out some special foods from Middle-earth and shared them with everyone.
During the conversation, I also learned from other people about some of the things that happened in Kaer Morhen in the past two months.
First of all, there are two beautiful girls from the tree industry. Under their management, the first batch of magic vegetables have all matured. These giant vegetables have all been put into a huge warehouse and stored at low temperatures. Moreover, magic vegetables are different from ordinary vegetables, and their shelf life is much longer. Now they can be supplied to the giants in the Giant Village for consumption.
The construction of the giant village entrusted to Berengar's management was also progressing quite smoothly. In two months, not only a large number of giant houses had been built, but also a considerable number of public facilities.
Now that these giants have a place to settle down, they can free up more manpower to serve as labor, whether it is cutting trees or mining. Large amounts of raw materials for building the castle are continuously transported to the surrounding areas of the castle.
Now all that's missing is a team of highly skilled construction workers to start building a new castle for the witcher cult.
During this time, Triss's research has also made some progress. The chief sorceress of the cult has read all the information about the witchers and has a considerable understanding of the current mutation experiments of the witchers.
Her next goal is to optimize and improve the steps and formulas of these experiments to increase the success rate of mutation experiments.
After joining the Witcher Order, Triss did not just treat it as a part-time job as she said.
To be frank, most of the red-haired sorceress's energy has now been invested in Wayne's career. After seeing the mountains of gold coins today, I'm afraid Triss will like the identity of the chief sorceress of the cult more and more. Being an ordinary royal adviser may no longer be attractive to her.
After eating and drinking, Wayne picked up the flagon of elven wine, poured a glass for the old witcher and Triss, and then said, "Dear Triss, I have a suggestion."
Hearing Wayne's words, the red-haired sorceress opened her slightly drunken eyes, with an admiring smile on her face. She looked at him and asked, "Dear, do you have any good ideas?"
Wayne took Triss's hand lovingly and said, "It's not a good idea, but I think the affairs concerning magic in the cult are too onerous."
"It would be a waste of your talent to assign all those chores to you."
"So I think you should just create a new magic school within our barrier and let you be the dean."
"Not only can we train professional warlocks for our Demon Hunter Cult, but we can also recruit some suitable helpers as teachers or consultants to help you share the work."
As he spoke, Wayne looked at Triss's eyes, which seemed to be interested, and said with a smile:
"Anyway, we now have enough funds, and you can control the chaos magic such as the barrier. There are so many children with magical talents in the world. We are fully qualified to establish a magic school of our own."
"This magic school will also be named after you, my dear. You can become a founding principal who will go down in history as a famous figure."
