"Teacher, I won."

Wayne put away his steel sword and looked at his mentor.

Two battles in a row, although not particularly intense, Wayne consumed a lot of chaos magic power, and his body was still a little tired.

And the next opponent, Geralt, should be the most difficult of the three witcher predecessors, and he must think of a countermeasure.

However, the old witcher Viselmir sighed and said to the crowd:

"Alright, that's all for the competition."

"Wayne, you have proved your strength, you are already qualified to be a teacher, and you don't need to have a third competition."

He glanced around Geralt, Lambert, and Eskell's faces.

"You don't have experience dealing with monsters, though."

"For the next few years, you're going to team up with Geralt and go on missions together."

"He'll teach you how to be a real witcher."

As the old witcher's words fell, the system prompt in Wayne's head rang out.

Expert Mission: [Teacher] completed.

Gain 30 XP points and an Expert Chest.

Originally, Wayne wanted to fight for it again, but after hearing the prompt that the mission was completed, he kept his mouth shut.

The reason why this test is so hard, in addition to striving for the qualification of the teacher, is also one of the important reasons for completing this expert-level task received for the first time.

Now it seems that the reward is not bad, thirty experience points are equivalent to ten ordinary level tasks, and the expert-level treasure chest, although it has not been opened, but according to the system's instructions, in addition to a lot of coins, there is also a chance to open a rare-level item.

Speaking of which, in his system column, there are also all the normal-level treasure chests that have been obtained in the past year and a half, one per day, and there are more than five hundred in total.

Each normal treasure chest can get a small amount of currency or some random items at the normal level, and so many treasure chests add up, and you are sure to open a lot of good things.

Of course, in the castle of Kellmohan, he did not open these treasure chests, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the old witcher Vismir with the items obtained out of thin air.

………………

Half a month later, heavy snow once again blocked the passage between Kyrmohan and the outside world.

After obtaining Viselmir's permission to send his teacher, Wayne's biggest task in addition to his daily combat training was to work with the white wolf Geralt to collect herbs in the forests, mountains and rivers near Kyll Mohan, search for monsters, and find the materials for refining witcher potions.

Practicing the truth also allowed Wayne to apply the knowledge from the books to reality, and learned a lot of knowledge about herbalism and monsterology that were not found in the books.

The only pity is that the vicinity of Kellmuhan is full of forests and valleys, and it is still a cold winter.

There are very few types of monsters and herbs that they can find, of which water ghosts and evil spirits account for the vast majority, and there are not many materials that can be collected.

A small lake a few kilometers away from Kellmohan.

The white wolf Geralt held a silver sword in his hand and looked at Wayne not far away, surrounded by five water ghosts.

Looking at the left and right running between this group of monsters, the sword light swept across, like a dexterous cheetah, easily dodging the monster's attack and wantonly killing the monster's figure.

I couldn't help but be amazed at the talent of this young demon hunter.

Perhaps, this little guy will really become the strongest witcher of the Wolf School in the last few hundred years, as Viselmir said.

After just a few demonstrations, the young man overcame the instinctive fear of monsters, and in the face of the blue-skinned, foul-smelling, hideous-looking water ghost, he was able to calmly pick up the silver sword and display his superb swordsmanship.

Thinking about his performance when he faced the monster for the first time, Geralt shook his head a little helplessly, quite a feeling that the back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves.

With the final slash, the sharp silver sword sliced through the flesh, and the water ghost's head flew high and smashed to the ground with a snap.

It took less than two minutes for the five water ghosts to turn into corpses on the ground under Wayne's swift and dexterous swordsmanship.

However, after killing all the water ghosts, Wayne didn't know what to think, and didn't make any other moves, but stood in the middle of the corpse in a trance, as if in a daze.

"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and take out the water ghost brain?"

"Today's lesson is to refine the swallow potion."

Seeing that Wayne was a little stunned with the silver sword after killing the water ghost, Geralt took the tool for boiling the potion, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and asked with a smile:

"What's wrong? Are you scared when you see these monster corpses? ”

Hearing this, Wayne exhaled and shook his head gently, not scared, but just feeling a little disgusting.

When I was fighting in the group of water ghosts just now, I didn't have such a strong feeling.

But when he cut these five monsters that were highly similar to the human body structure into pieces all over the ground, looking at the scene of limbs flying sideways and blood and flesh splashing on the ground, he suddenly felt a little sick to his stomach.

This is not the first time he has killed monsters, but the evil ghosts he killed before, Qiqimo is different, the appearance of water ghosts is too similar to humans, and it is no wonder that many civilians mistakenly believe that water ghosts are monsters transformed by the corpses of drowned people.

Geralt didn't care, took out a knife from his waist, squatted down and pinched the head of a water ghost in front of Wayne, cleanly cut the scalp of the water ghost, and then along a thin slit between the bones, pried open the water ghost's skull, and took out a white walnut-shaped water ghost brain from it.

He deliberately slapped his palm stained with foul mucus on Wayne's chest, and said with a smile:

"Kid Wayne, as a witcher, fighting and killing is only a small part of our lives."

"Dealing with all kinds of corpses is the main theme of our lives."

"From now on, you have to get used to this life with rotting corpses, mud, and shit."

As he spoke, he put the water ghost brain he had taken out into a basin-like container, and then beckoned to Wayne and said:

"I've heard Viselmir say that you really like to be given tasks by others."

"Come on, our task today is to dissect the corpses of twenty water ghosts and refine ten swallow potions."

As soon as Geralt's words fell, a systematic prompt sound appeared in Wayne's head.

Trigger Task: [Dispose of the corpse of the water ghost, boil the swallow potion] Normal level.

Do you pick up tasks?

Yes, confirm the pick-up task.

Smelling the sour smell of the corpse, Wayne only felt sick to his stomach, he endured the stench and nausea of the water ghost, squatted down, took out the skinning knife, imitated Geralt's movements, and began to dissect the corpse of another water ghost.

Indeed, Geralt was right.

No matter how disgusting, since you have chosen to become a demon hunter, you have to adapt to this life, dealing with corpses.

Anyway, when he acts alone in the future, what kind of task he takes on is his own freedom.
