Chapter 72 Ace and House are Scared

Chapter 72 Ace and House are scared

Swade asked Lan in disbelief: "Your Majesty, is this Duchess too..."

Ace also asked Lan in disbelief: "Your Majesty, are Toussaint's officials too..."

Lan rolled his eyes at them: "Is this what you should say?"

The two attendants quickly bowed their heads and confessed.

House obediently stepped forward and poured Lan a glass of wine, and then poured a glass for Geralt.

Smelling the refreshing aroma of wine, Geralt sighed: "The Duchess and the officials here...why are they like this?"

Lan also sighed and said with a headache:

"On the bright side, that's how we can be allowed to come to Toussaint at this time, and we can still be entertained."

Lan knocked on the door and asked the housekeeper for a map of Beauclair. He called a few people to gather around and gave instructions.

"Let's get down to business: As you all know, I came here to find the laboratory of a mage named Thomas Moreu. I need his experimental results on the secondary mutation of the witcher, as well as the results in his laboratory.

Magical treasure."

"Mr. Geralt." Another knight added, "It is said that you only kill monsters that are threatening, real threats. And that succubus has never threatened anyone or hurt anyone. Oh, she can

From time to time...visit the sleeping men...to play some little pranks..."

"House." He stopped pouring the wine.

According to Beauclair's knightly tradition, the four of them remained silent for ten heartbeats.

"Yes!" Swade replied loudly.

Lann became a little interested: "Then let them in, I want to hear what they are looking for Geralt - if you don't mind, Geralt."

The butler bent down a few degrees and said humbly: "It is Baron Palmeline de Lanfort and Baron de Perrac Perrin."

The butler explained: "It seems so. And... they don't seem to want to visit you, but to get to know this Mr. Geralt through the Earl."

Two knights walked in, each saluted Lan and greeted Geralt.

Lann ordered: "Go pick people, then eat, and take a rest first."

"But only for adults," another knight added.

"As for us..." Lann looked at Geralt and Sward, "We will meet up with Uncle Mossak's Druid friends tomorrow, and then set off for the Valley of the Nine. Don't drink anything at today's dinner.

Too much wine.”

The two knights looked at each other awkwardly, took a few breaths of mental preparation, and said hesitantly: "That's it...the succubus...the demon that haunts the night is the duchess and ladies who asked you to

The one you destroyed. Can you tell me the reward for killing that monster?"

House looked at Lann for consultation and stepped forward to open the door. The butler's face appeared in front of the door.

"Visitor?" House said angrily, "You just come to the door without a greeting card? What the hell is that!"

The two nodded in agreement.

Four pairs of eyes looked at Geralt.

Everyone nodded, this was something they had known for a long time.

The two of them looked at the three attendants and even Lan with embarrassment, as if they had something to hide.

Geralt shook his head: "Sorry, gentlemen, I cannot reveal such details."

Lann said cautiously: "I only know that he is buried in Beauclair. I can't tell exactly where. This job is not very respectable, so you rest during the day and go out at night. Be smart and don't be seen by too many people. I can rest assured that I leave it to you."

.”

The witcher said coldly: "Your suggestion is indeed not far from an insult."

The two knights seemed to want to get angry and argue, but they also seemed to remember something and looked at Lann with fear.

Watching the two of them go away, House and Ace suddenly asked curiously: "Mr. Geralt, are you really planning to kill that succubus?"

"I don't know them." Lann shook his head. "Are they in a hurry?"

House and Ace looked at the time and asked, "Lord Earl, what about now..."

Geralt gave them a strange look and explained: "Normally speaking, succubi do not suck blood or kill people, and they are not malicious, but occasionally there are 'unusual' situations. So I will find her first, and based on the investigation

The end determines the means.”

Lan didn't stop House from getting angry. After he finished speaking, he waved his hand slightly to make him take a step back and asked, "Who is the visitor?"

"Ace." The Arrow Servant looked up.

Then there was silence.

"According to the information I have learned, in addition to the laboratory, Professor Moru also has an experimental log that he should have carried with him and may have been taken into the tomb by him in the end. I also need to find it.

He turned to the witcher and said: "This has something to do with your profession."

"Earl Lannister is my employer, and I cannot accept your commission without his permission." Geralt said directly. "If you two are really in an emergency, please do so as soon as possible."

Lann thought for a while and started to order people.

The witcher shook his head indifferently.

The two attendants nodded.

Lan's mouth twitched, and he signaled to House with an expressionless expression: "Call the butler here and ask the two barons to go out."

"You two take four sword guards - leave out the axemen and hammermen, and leave the bombs behind - and go search Beauclair's cemetery."

"My lord, we have a visitor."

The two people who were about to go out each punched the sword attendant lightly. They were about to open the door when they suddenly heard a knock on the door.

In order to save as much time as possible, I plan to divide the troops into two groups——"

Please give up this contract and don't hurt the poor succubus. On my honor, we have many more men in Toussaint than women. You will be surprised by our generosity."

"Good day, your lordship, and Mr. Geralt." A knight said, "We have something to entrust to Mr. Geralt."

"We understand, we understand." said one of the knights. "We are obviously dealing with a decent man. To be honest, I am worried that such a person will find our proposal an insult, but I have to say -

Geralt refused again expressionlessly: "I won't tell the Duchess or any other lady about this, but please get out."

Geralt nodded: "Tell me."

Swade smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will bring you some wine for the dinner!"

The two barons reluctantly left.

"I don't know them either." The witcher explained expressionlessly.

Lann was also a little surprised that these two attendants never cared about demon hunting.

"This... we actually want to ask you for advice. We're going out at night. I'm thinking about how we should get along with a succubus if we meet one - I mean, how should we judge whether she is good or bad, and what should we do?

How to protect yourself?"

The expressions of the two attendants were solemn, but the corners of their mouths were slightly twitching and raised, their breathing was rapid, and their fingers and bodies were twisting uneasily.

Lan's face was expressionless: "You two, get out of here too, now."
