However, Leo is also very lucky that he can discover his own flaws from the power of Regiel's blood and has enough time to remedy them. If his psychic power breaks through to a seventh-level psyker, then his body may be in trouble.
He will no longer be able to withstand the intensity of his psychic energy, and eventually his body will disappear completely. If he is lucky, he will turn into a special psychic life form, but if he is unlucky, he will simply disappear from this world.
What Leo needs to do now is to suppress the growth of his spiritual energy and use various methods to fully unleash his body's potential, so that he can more safely withstand the next qualitative change in his spiritual energy.
Just like a child getting a new toy, after Leo obtained the method of using blood power from Regier and improved it, he couldn't wait to test the power of this power, so at this moment he hopes to use it more
Count Rita did some irrational things so that he could justifiably take action.
Unfortunately, Count Britta did not give Leo this opportunity. 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 very happy with the other party's current decision, so he asked: "What is the request?"
Count Britta said in a deep voice: "Only after the transaction of my plantation is completed, I will pay your terms, and you, especially you, the demon hunter and the knight of light must cooperate with me in doing things, such as dealing with external affairs.
Claiming to have wiped out the monsters in the plantation, all those who disappeared died at the hands of the monsters."
"My Lord Earl, do you think we will agree to such a ridiculous request?" Leo said in a deep voice before Geralt could speak.
"I think you will agree," Count Britta said: "Although I really want to get rid of the plantation, it does not mean that I have to sell the plantation. Your threats have no effect on me."
Although Count Britta is now very calm and doesn't care at all whether he can sell the plantation, his confident expression makes anyone who sees him think that his words are true.
But under the perception of Leo's mental network, Count Britta's self-confidence disguise is useless. The blood in his body, the speed of his heart and other subtle reactions that are uncontrollable in his body all show that he is guilty at the moment.
Awesome, no confidence at all.
"In this case, we have nothing to talk about. Geralt, let's go!" Leo turned his head and winked at Geralt, then turned and walked out. Although Geralt was attracted by Britta,
The Earl had to act confused, but his intuition told him that there was something wrong here, so when Leo turned around and was about to leave, he followed him.
"Wait a minute." When Count Britta saw Leo coming to the door, he could no longer bear the panic in his heart. He stopped the two of them and said, "I can agree to your terms, but you must promise to sell it to me before I sell it."
Before the plantation, no adverse news should come out from the outside world. In order to ensure that your guarantee is effective, 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 to Geralt, indicating that Geralt should make his own decision.
After thinking about it for a while, Geralt nodded and said: "I can only guarantee that we people will not leak anything we know to the outside world. As for whether there is any unfavorable news from the outside world, we cannot guarantee that your enemies will be so...
If they spread some unfavorable news about you casually, do they also have to be blamed on us?"
Count Britta was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, as long as you can promise not to talk nonsense, I will agree to your conditions."
Seeing that Count Britta had agreed to the conditions, Geralt and Leo did not push any further and reached an agreement with Count Britta.
After that, Count Britta hurriedly led the people out of the manor, unwilling to stay here for another second.
Watching Count Britta leave, Geralt suddenly asked Leo: "Sir Leo, do you think he will abide by the agreement and pay the other half of the terms after the transaction is completed?"
"No." Leo gave the answer directly and said.
"Why?" Geralt asked.
Leo simply replied: "He actually believed our verbal guarantee and did not go further and asked for a written agreement to restrict the verbal guarantee. The promise he made to us was also just a verbal promise. Obviously he was ready to go back on it.
Prepare."
Geralt nodded with deep understanding and said, "But we are not considered a failure. We can at least complete half of the conditions. The money is enough for the family to move to other places and live a stable life."
Leo nodded slightly and did not continue talking to Geralt. He turned around and left the reception room and returned to his room.
In the following days, the temperature in Toussaint began to drop rapidly, from hot summer to cold autumn and winter, and white frost even condensed on the tree branches in the morning.
Some people have never seen such extremely cold weather in Toussaint in their lives. Some refugees who entered Toussaint to escape the blizzard described the cold blizzard outside as like a natural disaster.
Many people thought of the Islini prophecy, which was almost forgotten and even became a joke, the prophecy about hoarfrost.
For a time, the entire Toussaint became panicked, and many people even regained the faith of Prophet Lebioda, trying to use religion to alleviate the panic in their hearts.
Also because of the sudden climate change, the originally grand Knights Conference ended hastily. Duchess Anna Henrietta is obviously a more pragmatic person. Under the current circumstances, compared to the more formal Knights Conference
, she paid more attention to the impact of the disaster on Toussaint.
Also because of this climate change, the wine conference ended hastily, and the wines participating in the conference were all more or less affected by the climate, resulting in a decline in overall quality.
This is a good thing for Earl Britt, because in this way, the low-quality wines in the winery will have an explanation. I don’t know if it is because he is in a good mood, or maybe he has found it.
He found a suitable buyer and was worried that Geralt and the others would come out to cause trouble. On the third day of reaching an agreement with Geralt and the others, he paid half of the agreed terms.
Due to the sudden change in climate, the monsters living in Toussaint have also been affected, becoming extremely active, and the number of attacks on people has also increased rapidly. It feels like these monsters are preparing food for the winter.
For this reason, the demon hunters, Sylvia and Leo often went out to take over the task of killing monsters, while Regier and others stayed in the manor to protect the family, lest Earl Britt regret midway.
That family is in trouble.
When going out to eliminate monsters, Sylvia did not act with Leo, because every time he encountered a monster, Leo had already solved those monsters before Sylvia took action, although he finally obtained the Knight of Light.
Sylvia didn't like most of the glory and praise, which made her feel like a thief, so after she and Leo took on two missions to eliminate monsters, she started acting alone.
Leo had no objection to this. He himself was not interested in destroying monsters, gaining people's praise, glory or money. He was more concerned about developing his body's potential, and those monsters were his best experimental subjects.
However, the monsters around the Belan Manor have been contained by Geralt and Sylvia, so Leo can only go to more remote places in the past two days.
For this reason, he put all his armor and sword in the manor, rode lightly and quickly, and took turns switching between the two horses.
When riding a horse, the two war horses under his crotch are also his experiments. He uses the power of his own blood to stimulate the power of the blood in the horses. Although it cannot improve the life form of the war horses, it can turn ordinary war horses into
It has become an extremely excellent war horse, and its speed, endurance, etc. have all been more than doubled.
The journey that originally took one day to complete took Leo only two or three hours to complete.
Every time he arrived at a village, Leo found the bulletin board and saw the tasks posted on it. He did not contact the person who posted the tasks. As long as there was a task about monsters hurting people, he would go directly to the place where the incident occurred, find the monsters, and then solve them directly.
Lose.
When solving these monsters, Leo did not use any spiritual power, divine power or other extraordinary powers. All was physical power inspired by Qi and blood. In this state, Leo's extraordinary perception became more sensitive and even exceeded his ability.
Limits that were previously unimaginable have 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, Regiel'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, like psychic energy, etc.
Same as supernormal strength.
Leo was not very clear about the purpose of this kind of blood power, but he knew that it was not just as simple as improving Regiel's strength and speed, but it should also involve higher-level forms of life force.
"We need to find a powerful enough monster!" This was the main thing Leo was thinking about during this time.
It's a pity that the monsters he encountered were either giant centipedes or bugs. The one that was slightly more threatening was a soul monster called the Day Demon.
After helping a village deal with a group of bugs that crawled out of their nests to cause trouble due to the climate, Leo returned to Bayland Manor. He decided to change some directions of action. Tomorrow he would no longer target the monsters that threatened the village, but
He was carefully investigating some ruins of the Elf Kingdom. He believed that there must be some extremely powerful monsters in those ruins, just like the stone giants called golems that he and Sylvia encountered before.
However, after returning to Belan Manor, he found that he did not need to search for the ruins of the Elf Kingdom. Naturally, someone came to his door, and this person was also the target person Leo and Sylvia wanted to meet, Flynn.
Gila Vigo.
It was a coincidence, but it was not entirely a coincidence. Dandelion secretly went to Beauclair to date his Duchess, and there were many people in Toussaint who hated this, and these people would do something to Dandelion.
Well, you can imagine, so while hunting monsters, Geralt had to act as a protector and protect Dandelion on his way to Beauclair's secret rendezvous.
In fact, Geralt went to Beauclair not entirely for Dandelion. He also wanted to buy some snow walking equipment in Beauclair, and wanted to find a guide who was familiar with the areas around Toussaint. Depending on the situation, he
He had no intention of staying in Toussaint for the whole winter and waiting for the snow to melt before setting off. He seemed to be planning to continue his search for a girl through the mountains of Toussaint in this blizzard weather.
However, he soon discovered that things were much worse than he expected. Although there were many travelers in Toussaint who were familiar with the surrounding mountains, most of the terrain they were familiar with was normal weather terrain, and now this kind of snowstorm covered
The terrain is completely different from what they know. In this case, they cannot find the correct road at all and will only be trapped in the snow-capped mountains.
Geralt was not discouraged. He decided to find a route through the mountains on his own. The most detailed and rigorous maps of the surrounding mountains were stored in the palace library, and the person in charge of the palace library was the duke's advisor Fringilla.
·Weige.
Through the help of the Duchess, Geralt also met Fringilla Vigo.
This is not the first time the two have met. Geralt and his lover Yennefer had also met Fringilla Vigo before when they attended a witch coven. The relationship between the two was not very good.
Because Fringilla Vigo once stabbed Yennefer with magic. Although Yennefer later forgave Fringilla Vigo and became friends with her, Geralt faced this matter in his heart.
There is always some concern.
It was precisely because of this little knot in his heart that when the two wanted to meet, the atmosphere was not very good.
However, Fringilla Vigo seemed to be deliberately trying to please Geralt and expressed her willingness to help Geralt find the mountain map. However, she also reminded Geralt very seriously that this snowstorm was not just a natural phenomenon.
It seemed to contain supernatural power that she wasn't quite sure about. This power was very dangerous. Even she didn't dare to go through the blizzard during this period. What's more important was that any spells such as portals would not work like this.
In some cases, all of them are ineffective. If it is forcibly opened, unpredictable consequences will inevitably occur.
After listening to Fringilla Vigo's description of the snowstorm outside, Geralt also began to think about whether he should risk crossing the mountains. If Geralt was a person, he would not think so much at all, but now
He was followed by Regier, Cassirer, Milva, Angouleme and others. If something happened to these people because he forced his way through the mountains surrounded by snowstorms, he would never want to see it.
