By the afternoon of the next day, Ms. Seale, who had not taken a vacation for several years, was rarely without work. Instead, she was still immersed in a sweet dream with a satisfied smile.

Wayne did not wake up the sorceress, but left very quietly, not taking their relationship too seriously.

This exchange was at most a fleeting romance. Although as a man, he was indeed happy, the main reason was to win over Xi'er, the talented female sorceress. Even if it was just a physical relationship, it would make the other party trust him more.

Moreover, this time, as a boss, Mr. Wayne gave out rewards to satisfy his core staff's requests, or even out of sympathy for his employees.

After leaving the secret base in the cave, he did not return to the castle immediately, but went directly to the Temple of the Goddess in the center of the artificial lake, ready to pray for a blessing from his dear goddess.

Today is his lucky day, and it is time to draw a lottery again. After six years of continuous drawing of lottery tickets, he has become accustomed to the tense and exciting atmosphere. He no longer treats it as a big event as he did in the past.

Of course, luck is the most important attribute. Before leaving the secret base, Wayne did not forget to find a death row prisoner and draw his luck.

Most of these death row prisoners were purchased by the Wayne Chamber of Commerce from prisons in various countries, and some were robbers and bandits encountered by armed caravans during transportation.

However, Wayne has always been very cautious in choosing experimental subjects. Some death row inmates are given the opportunity to turn over a new leaf and become new human beings. Only those who have committed truly heinous crimes will be deprived of their rights as human beings and treated as experimental subjects.

The artificial lake is located on the back hill of Kaer Morhen Castle, not far from the main castle. It is a bedroom built by Wayne specifically for the goddess of the lake, so that he can meet his goddess and cultivate feelings.

At the same time, it also provides an absolutely safe shelter for this holy goddess.

Of course, he did not say so openly. After all, in order to purify the dark power in his body, three goddesses, such as the Goddess of Birds, the Goddess of Forests and the Goddess of Fields, would come on time every month. At least on the surface, he could not favor one over the other.

And it’s not that Master Wayne is stingy and unwilling to build temples for other goddesses.

The main reason is that after getting to know the goddesses in depth, he discovered that as magical creatures such as nymphs, the goddesses have very little demand for material things. They do not need food, do not like jewelry and gold, and do not even need the faith and offerings of others.

They are more adaptable to environments that are close to their job responsibilities, and they will only feel comfortable when they are in an environment that suits them.

Lilith, the goddess of the lake, is always so considerate and gave Wayne a blessing of luck very easily. Besides, she is used to it. Wayne would pray to her for a blessing of luck every once in a while.

After coming to Kaer Morhen, a place that is almost a paradise on earth, the Lady of the Lake spent more time with Wayne than before, and after his ability of divine blessing reached level five, several goddesses also noticed the difference in Wayne's body.

They were surprised to find that this young demon hunter was actually transforming from a mortal to a god. This transformation was not obvious at the moment and was only a change in his aura. However, even so, perhaps out of affection for their own kind, the goddesses' relationship with Wayne became closer.

However, the main reason for achieving such an effect is that Wayne spent ability points to light up the two skill specialties granted by the level 5 Divine Blessing skill.

Divine Blessing LV5: Resistance to alien states +5, mental resistance +5, soul resistance +5, charisma +5.

Divine harmony: Due to long-term close contact with divine creatures, your body and soul have been attracted by the divine power. You have embarked on the path to becoming a god and are transforming into a higher level of life.

Effect: Talent upper limit is greatly increased, Charisma +5, Alien Energy Resistance +5.

Body of God (Weak): The power of divinity is strong and mysterious. The body of a god is completely different from that of a mortal. Although the divine power in the host's body is not sufficient, this does not prevent this mysterious power from nourishing the body.

Effect: Physical lifespan +2000 years, able to automatically repair most non-fatal injuries over time, including regeneration of severed limbs, damaged internal organs, broken bones, and other serious physical injuries.

Since the two skill specialties granted by the divine blessing were very powerful, Wayne used an extra skill bar and a total of three ability points to retain both skill specialties.

The reason why he was so generous and used up three precious ability points was mainly because he had accumulated a lot of experience points from ordinary tasks in the past three years, and he had completed the two epic tasks in the wizarding world well.

Not only did he receive a large number of treasure chests and experience rewards, but his level was also successfully raised by three levels, reaching level 23.

[Rebuilding the Demon Hunter Cult]

Progress: 5/10 Next stage rewards: one thousand experience points, two ability points.

Rewards currently obtained: 2,000 experience points, 4 master-level treasure chests.

The task of rebuilding the Demon Hunter Cult is quite long. Although the current strength of the Demon Hunter Cult is already quite strong, according to the system's evaluation, it has only completed about one-half. Each subsequent stage of improvement will be more difficult.

The rewards for this task become more generous as you progress. Now that it’s the fifth stage, you can even take ability points as rewards, which makes Wayne very happy.

He has fully realized the preciousness of ability points. As time goes by, although he can learn various skills without any bottleneck in his improvement, he can only drool over those powerful skill expertise but cannot obtain them because he does not have enough ability points.

Moreover, after learning from the previous experience in the Dark World, Wayne has become somewhat wary of the consequences of extracting new magic nodes. He is afraid of opening up a more terrifying and desperate world, and has never made up his mind to open up a new world.

However, if he could gain ability points by completing difficult tasks, it would undoubtedly be a very exciting thing for him.

As for the special mission between him and Francesca [Saving the Elves], Wayne also completed it very well.

After three years of efforts by the Cat's Claw Mercenary Group, nearly 30,000 non-human races have been rescued. As the key recruitment targets, the two countries of Temeria and Kaedwen have almost been swept through. Only those non-human races who still have attachment to their homes and illusions about the kindness of humans continue to live there and have not left.

Wayne's points also reached more than 25,000 points, enough to exchange for two epic treasure chests and 6,000 experience points.

As he might encounter strong enemies during this outing, he simply exchanged the two epic treasure chests and 6,000 experience points, successfully raising his level to level 25.

Wayne (23 years old) Occupation: Demon Hunter Level: Level 25 (153/2500)

Ability value: 13 points

Skills: Swordsmanship LV15, Magic Sign LV11, Gene Mutation LV14, Gwent LV12.

Special bloodline: Ancient blood (primary unlocking), advanced unlocking requires 30 ability points.

Bloodline power: flicker, source warlock, time travel.

Subsidiary skills: Archery LV11, Cooking LV13, Planting LV8, Riding LV12, Forging LV6, Alchemy 6, Taming LV10, Spells LV4, Magic Knowledge LV6, Divine Blessing LV5, Proficiency in Alien Languages ​​LV2.

During the period of recuperation, Wayne practiced swordsmanship and archery the most. As his personal magic teacher, Lani also forced him to learn a lot of magic knowledge, so these three skills improved the most and were upgraded by several levels.

The swordsmanship skill, which was originally a bit backward, surpassed the level of the seal in one fell swoop, becoming the highest level among the four main skills of the demon hunter, and has already opened the third stage of skill expertise.

However, because he had to save up ability points, he had not yet unlocked the skill specialties of many skills.

Although he has not unlocked any skill expertise and can only use chaos magic to a limited extent, Wayne's current strength is much stronger than it was three years ago.

The main reason is that, under the nourishment of the power of hell, combined with the improvements brought about by the upgrade, his physical attributes have almost doubled, basically reaching more than seven times that of an ordinary strong man, and his strength has almost reached about ten times.

To put it bluntly, even if Captain America came, he would be able to fight him for three hundred rounds with his current physical fitness, and he could even rely on his own strength to compete with those huge giants.

After leaving the Goddess Temple, Wayne's luck value had reached about sixty points, and he did not delay any longer.

The preparations have been completed, the treasure chest is ready, and because of yesterday's indulgence, it is almost dusk. If I don't open the treasure chest, I'm afraid there won't be enough time.

After entering the castle, Wayne quickly walked up the stairs, climbed the stone stairs about sixty meters high, reached the top floor of the castle, and came to a huge terrace protected by a magic barrier.

After the magic barrier was removed, everyone could clearly see that in the center of the terrace, there was not only an extremely luxuriously decorated marble altar, but also one that looked quite solemn and full of ritual.

Moreover, around the altar, countless gold coins were piled up to form a huge golden beach that was high enough to submerge the calves.

With the help of these dazzling golden lights, the level of this altar was elevated to several levels.

Wayne took a deep breath and went to the luxurious bathroom on the other side of the terrace to take a bath and change his clothes. Then he sat devoutly in the center of the altar. After praying, he began to touch the treasure chest.

There are not many treasure chests that need to be opened this time. Because I have been recuperating in Kaer Morhen for the past three years and have not performed any difficult tasks, most of the treasure chests I obtained are ordinary treasure chests, and the number of expert-level treasure chests is quite scarce.

The only high-level treasure chests he had now were the one he obtained when he rescued Yennefer and the two he obtained as rewards when he rebuilt the Witcher Cult. Although this mission has rewarded a total of four master-level treasure chests so far, the previous two had already been used when the treasure chests were opened last time.

There are three master-level treasure chests and two epic-level treasure chests. Although the number is quite rare, in terms of quality, they are definitely among the best in the past six years.

Ding! The treasure chest is opened, and there are 3 master-level treasure chests.

Obtained: 6868 Ducats, Magic Puppet Knight.

As the three master-level treasure chests in the system disappeared, a huge magic puppet knight, about three meters tall and covered in silver-white metal knight armor, appeared in front of Wayne.

In its hand was a six-meter-long black dragon lance, with a fiery red flame cloak draped over its back. In the eye position of its full-coverage visor were two huge sapphires, faintly gleaming with magical light.

After appearing in front of Wayne, this majestic-looking behemoth paused for a few seconds, then knelt on one knee in front of Wayne as if it had received some order, and the huge black knight spear in its hand was also placed on the ground.

A hoarse male voice, as if squeezed out of steel, came from the cheek of the puppet knight.

"Number 10086, Magic Knight Gerald, reporting in."

"Master, I am waiting for your orders at any time."

Hearing the voice of the magic knight in front of him, Wayne, who was feeling a little depressed because only one item came out of the three master-level treasure chests, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise.

Even though it was just a conversation, he could see it.

The magic knight in front of him, whose entire body armor is engraved with magic inscriptions, is obviously not an ordinary item, nor is it a cold magic prop. It is most likely a magic fighting machine with a considerable degree of intelligence.

Although it is still unclear to what extent its intelligence and combat capability can be achieved, from this point of view alone, the magic civilization that created this magic puppet knight is far superior to all spellcasters in the wizarding world.

Wayne pondered for a few seconds and asked tentatively:

"Herald, where are you from? Tell me your information"

Hearing Wayne's question, the magic knight who was half kneeling in front of him answered without any pause, "Master, I come from the ZDX5479 galaxy, the 532nd planet. I am an armed magic knight manufactured by the Stephant Company of the Magic Alliance. I am mainly responsible for various types of combat missions."

"Because we are out of the range of the intelligent magic network, many functions have become ineffective."

"We have now entered offline mode. As long as it does not violate the laws of the Magic Alliance, everything will be subject to the master's orders."

The intelligent system of this magic knight has excellent performance. After hearing Wayne's question, a series of answers immediately burst out.
