However, Leo is also very glad that he can find his defects from Regier's blood power, and there is still enough time to remedy it, if his spiritual energy breaks through to the seventh level of psionic ability, then his body may no longer be able to bear his psionic strength, and eventually his body will disappear completely, and if he is lucky, he will become a special psionic lifeform, and if he is unlucky, he will disappear directly from this world.

What Leo needs to do now is to suppress the growth of psionic energy and fully stimulate the potential of his body by various means, so that he can bear the next qualitative transformation process of psionic energy more safely.

Like a child getting a new toy, Leo couldn't wait to test the power of blood power after he got the method of using blood power from Regier and improved it, so he wanted Count Britta to do something irrational at the moment, so that he could justify it.

It's a pity that the Count of Britta didn't give Leo this opportunity, and after being silent for a long time, he nodded and said, "Yes, I can agree to your conditions, but I also have a request." ”

Leo was a little disappointed with the other party's reaction, but Geralt was pleased with the other party's decision now, so he asked, "What do you want?"

Count Britta said in a deep voice, "I will only pay your terms after my plantation has been traded, and you, especially you witcher and the knight of light, must cooperate with me in some things, such as claiming that the monsters of the plantation have been eliminated, and that all those who have disappeared have died at the hands of monsters." ”

"Do you think we will accede to such a ridiculous request, Lord Earl?" said Leo in a deep voice before Geralt could speak.

"I think you'll agree," said Count Brita, "and as much as I would love to get rid of the plantation, that doesn't mean I have to sell it, and your threats have had no effect on me. ”

Although the Count of Britta was now very calm and did not care at all whether or not he could sell the plantation, that kind of self-confidence made anyone who saw it think that his words were true.

But under the perception of Leo's spiritual network, the self-confidence disguise of Count Britta is useless, and the blood on his body, the speed of his heartbeat, and some other uncontrollable subtle reactions in his body all show that his heart is very weak at the moment, and he has no confidence at all.

"In that case, we have nothing to talk about. Geralt, let's go!" Leo glanced at Geralt, then turned and walked out, and Geralt, though bewildered by Count Brita's performance, had a gut telling him that there was something wrong with it, so he followed Leo as he turned to leave.

"Wait. When the Count of Britta saw Leo coming to the door, he could no longer bear the panic in his patience, and stopped the two of them, and said, "I can agree to your terms, but you must ensure that no unfavorable news comes out of the outside world until I sell the plantation, and in order to ensure that your guarantee is valid, I will only pay half of the conditions first, and the remaining half will be handed over to you on the day the transaction is completed." ”

Geralt glanced at Leo, as if asking Leo's opinion, and Leo gestured at Geralt and motioned for Geralt to make his own decision.

After thinking about it for a while, Geralt nodded and said, "I can only guarantee that our people will not leak anything we know, as for whether there is unfavorable news from the outside world, we can't guarantee that you have so many enemies, they will spread some unfavorable news to you, will it also be counted on us?"

Count Britta was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, as long as you can promise not to talk nonsense, I will agree to your conditions." ”

Seeing that the Count of Britta had agreed to the conditions, Geralt and Leo did not gain an inch anymore, and reached an agreement with the Count of Brita.

After that, the Count of Britta hurriedly led the people out of the manor, unwilling to stay here for a second longer.

Looking at the figure of the Count of Britta leaving, Geralt suddenly asked Leo, "Your Excellency Leo, do you think he will abide by the agreement and pay the other half of the conditions after the transaction is completed?"

"No, it won't. Leo gave a direct answer, saying.

"Why?" asked Geralt.

Leo replied simply: "He actually believed our verbal assurances, and did not go further to ask for a written agreement to bind the verbal assurances, and the promises he made to us were also only verbal promises, and it is clear that he is ready to go back." ”

Geralt nodded approvingly, and said, "But we are not a failure, at least we can complete half of the conditions, and this money is enough for the family to move to other places and live a stable life for a while." ”

Leo nodded slightly, didn't talk to Geralt any more, turned and left the reception room, back to his room.

In the days that followed, the temperature in Towcent began to drop rapidly, from a hot summer to a cold autumn and winter, and even hoarfrost formed on the branches in the morning.

Some people have never seen such extremely cold weather in Towson in their lives, and some refugees who have entered Towson from outside to escape the blizzard have described the cold blizzard outside as if it were a natural disaster, and many people are reminded of the almost forgotten and even joked prediction of Esilny's prophecy, the prophecy of hoarfrost.

For a time, the whole of Touscent became panicked, and many people even regained the faith of the prophet Rebioda, trying to alleviate the panic in their hearts through religion.

Because of the sudden climate change, which brought the originally grand knights' congress to a hasty end, Duchess Anna Henrietta was obviously a more pragmatic person, and in this situation, she paid more attention to the impact of the disaster on Towcente than the more formal knights' conference.

Also because of this climate change, the wine conference also ended hastily, and the wines participating in the conference were more or less affected by the climate, resulting in a decline in overall quality.

This is a good thing for the Count of Britt, because in this way, the inferior wines in the winery have an explanation for it, and I don't know if it is because he is in a good mood, or maybe he has found a suitable buyer, and he is worried that Geralt and they will come out to make trouble, and on the third day of the agreement with Geralt, he will pay the half of the conditions that he has agreed to.

Due to the sudden change in climate, the monsters that inhabit Towson have also been affected, becoming extremely active, and the number of attacks on people has also increased rapidly, and it seems that these monsters are preparing food for the winter.

For this reason, the witcher, Sylvia, and Leo are also often out to take on the task of cleaning up the monsters, while Regiel and the others stay in the manor to protect the family, lest Count Britt turn on the family and disadvantage the family.

When she went out to clear the monsters, Sylvia didn't act with Leo, because every time she encountered monsters, before Sylvia made a move, Leo had already dealt with those monsters, and although she finally got most of the glory and praise from the Knight of Light, Sylvia didn't like it, which made her feel like a thief, so she took on two tasks with Leo to clear out monsters, and then acted alone.

Leo doesn't disagree with that, he's not interested in getting rid of monsters and getting the praise, glory, and money of the populace, he's more interested in developing his physical potential, and those monsters are his best experiments.

However, the monsters around Beran Manor have been overwhelmed by Geralt and Sylvia, making Leo have to go to more remote places for the past two days.

To this end, he kept all his armor and great sword on the manor, and rode lightly, and the two horses took turns.

When riding a horse, the two war horses under the crotch are also his experiments, and the power in the blood of the horse is stimulated through the power in his own blood, although it cannot improve the life form of the war horse, but it can make the ordinary war horse become an extremely good war horse, and the speed and endurance have all been more than doubled.

What would have taken a day to complete, Leo can complete in two or three hours.

Every time he arrives at a village, Leo finds the bulletin board, sees the task announced on it, and doesn't contact the person who posted the task, as long as there is a monster hurting the task, go directly to the place where the incident occurred, find the monster, and then solve it directly.

When dealing with these monsters, Leo did not use any supernatural powers such as psionic energy and divine power, all of them relied on the physical power inspired by qi and blood, and his supernormal perception also became more sensitive in this state, even beyond the limits that he could not imagine before, and entered a microscopic realm.

However, Leo is not satisfied with his current state, although he has become more and more proficient in using the power of his body, he has not produced extraordinary power from his blood.

For example, Regier's ability to generate mist comes from his blood, and when he attacks, Leo can also feel the power generated by some blood wrapped around his claws, just like supernatural powers such as psionic energy.

Leo didn't know exactly what this kind of flesh and blood power was for, but he knew that it was not just about improving Regil's strength and speed, but also about a higher level of life force form.

"Need to find a monster that is strong enough!" was the main thing Leo had been thinking about during this time.

It's a pity that the monsters he encountered were either giant centipedes or those bugs, and the slightly threatening one was a soul monster called the Daytime Demon.

After helping a village deal with a group of bugs that crawled out of their nests due to the weather, Leo returned to Beran Manor, where he decided to change his course of action and no longer target the monsters that threatened the village tomorrow, but to investigate some of the ruins of the elven kingdom. He believed that among those ruins, there must have been some extremely powerful monsters, like the stone colossus called the Puppet that he and Sylvia had encountered earlier.

However, after returning to Belan Manor, he found that he didn't need to do anything to find the ruins of the Elven Kingdom, so someone naturally sent him to the door, and this person was also the target of Leo and Sylvia, Frigila Vigo.

It's a coincidence, but it's not all a coincidence, Dandrien secretly went to Bowland to date his duchess, and there are a lot of people who hate it in Toussente, and it is conceivable what these people will do to Dandrien, so Geralt had to be a protector while hunting monsters, protecting Dandrien to Bowcrane's secret rendezvous place.

In fact, Geralt didn't go to Bowsant for Dandryon, he also wanted to buy some snowshoeing equipment in Bowshore, and wanted to find a guide who was familiar with the surrounding area of Towcent, so he didn't plan to stay in Towcent for a winter, wait for the snow to melt before setting off, and seemed to be ready to continue the road of finding a woman in this snowstorm weather, through the mountains of Towcent.

However, he soon found that things were much worse than he expected, although there were many travelers in Touscent who were familiar with the surrounding mountains, most of them were familiar with normal weather terrain, and now this kind of snowstorm covered terrain was completely different from the terrain they knew, in this case, they could not find the right path at all, and they would only be trapped in the snowy mountains.

Undeterred, Geralt decided to find his own route through the mountains, and the most detailed and rigorous maps of the surrounding mountains were kept in the palace library, which was run by the Duke's advisor, Frigila Vigo.

After being brokered by the Duchess, Geralt also met Frigila Vigo.

It's not the first time the two have met, Geralt and his lover Yennefer had met Frigila Vigo when they attended the witches' gathering, and the relationship between the two was not very good, because Friengilla Vigo had stabbed Yennefer with magic, and although Yennefer later forgave Furringa Vigo and became friends with her, Geralt always had some nostalgia for this in his heart.

It is precisely because of this little pimple in my heart that when the two want to meet, the atmosphere is not very good.

However, Frigila M. Wei Ge seems to be deliberately currying favor with Geralt, and expresses her willingness to assist Geralt in finding the map of the mountains, but she also reminds Geralt very seriously that this blizzard is not just a natural phenomenon, it also seems to contain supernormal power that she doesn't know very well, this power is very dangerous, even she doesn't dare to go through the blizzard during this time, and one more important thing is that any spells such as portals will all fail in this case, and there will inevitably be unpredictable consequences if they are forcibly opened.

After listening to Frigila Vigo's description of the blizzard outside, Geralt also began to think about whether he should venture through the mountains, if Geralt was alone, he wouldn't think about it so much at all, but now there are also Regil, Cassirer, Mirva, Angouran and others by his side, if these people have an accident because he forced through the mountains surrounded by the blizzard, this is something he absolutely does not want to see, so the idea of leaving Touscent in his heart has also faded a lot.
