Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1223 1205. Distrust

After working on it for a long time, Margarita was finally sure that Lan En had no idea about the cold sorceress with black hair and purple eyes.

Although the relationship between Yennefer and Geralt is a very topical topic among the warlock community.

They were also the first to become famous in the small circle of warlocks, a combination of sorceresses looking for witchers as lovers.

Of course, now that Lan En has brought the reputation of the demon hunters to greater and greater heights. More sorceresses became aware of this group that they once didn't know much about.

Superior martial arts, strong physique, and generally strong physiological needs due to hormonal mutations. Being a greedy lover is indeed a good choice.

Therefore, many female sorcerers now want to find a demon hunter to satisfy their desire for exploration and novelty.

But Yennefer was very good at playing in the past, and she also belonged to the "very good" category among the sorceresses. This made Margarita, a friend who knew everything, curl her lips.

"So, should I talk to Tissaya about this?"

Lan En silently smacked his lower lip. This action caused Margarita to chuckle.

"No, there's no need to go to her for this kind of thing. Because it's actually not difficult to deal with."

The current dean of Arethusa shook his head.

"Supporting an operation that is likely to be well-rewarded and recognized by the warlocks is nothing new for Aretuza."

"Although this operation sounds risky and may go against the will of many kings. So you know it."

Speaking of this, Margarita's voice also carried the sense and calmness of a leader.

"Aretuza will not directly provide help until the situation becomes clear. Help is limited and hidden."

"Place your bet carefully." Lan En showed no unnecessary expression after hearing this. "A safe choice. But it's enough."

"Before I achieved any serious results, I was able to attract such sponsorship. It's all thanks to me."

After saying that, Lan En even praised himself jokingly.

"Let's see what kind of noise they can make in the future." Margarita spread her hands. "But, shouldn't we talk now about how to deal with the body of the Tyrannosaurus Rex?"

Although the night is dark and the flowers are fragrant, there are neither insects nor birds chirping here.

Because these weak and sensitive creatures were still crushed to death by the pressure of the Tyrannosaurus corpse.

And just the body of the Tyrannosaurus Rex is dangerous enough for this world.

No one knows what changes will occur in the corpse that is rich in extremely strong vitality under the influence of the chaotic magic scattered throughout the world.

Although Lan En has killed the Tyrannosaurus Rex once, who knows if another twisted demon spirit will be born from the violent corpse full of deep appetite?

"The body of the Tyrannosaurus Rex cannot be left here." The demon hunter first solemnly came to an overall conclusion. "Not just because of the danger, it's my duty."

"It is part of the agreement I made to prevent dangerous things from coming here through the intersection of the celestial sphere."

"In other words, you must return its body to its original world."

Margarita frowned slightly and murmured calculations.

"This thing is so big and heavy that it's impossible to move it out of the mountains and teleport it? Maybe it can be done."

"It's not just teleportation, it's not that simple." When talking about the specific operation, Lan En couldn't help but frown slightly.

However, the witcher turned his head slightly and asked in a seemingly unintentional tone.

"By the way, Ritatisaya, is she free recently?"

"Are you free? Looking at your question, how long will it take for you to be free?"

"Why does it take more than a month?"

"More than a month?" Margarita came back to her senses at this time and looked at the witcher strangely, "If it were in Aretusa, then there must be. But I listen to you. What do you want to do?"

Lann blinked and smiled.

—

It wasn't until close to three or four o'clock in the morning the next day that others found this place on the rugged and difficult mountain roads of the Mahakam Mountains, following the traces of destruction caused by the Dino Tyrannosaurus and Lan En.

This is still the case with the two warlocks Triss and Tisaya providing supernatural lighting, otherwise it would be impossible to move in the mountains at night.

"Even after turning into a corpse, the terrifying pressure of this thing still makes it difficult for me to breathe."

Unable to conceal his exhaustion, Lincoln led the rest of the honorary swordsmen among the Ember Knights to arrive.

The young secretary behaved the same as Margarita before, cautiously touching the smooth texture of the Dino Tyrannosaurus' skin with his hands.

"Thank you for your hard work. You did a great job before."

Lan En was beside him, giving recognition and encouragement to each honorary swordsman.

They had previously greatly eliminated the influence of those cursed fog monsters on the battle situation.

For this reason, they even risked casualties to disperse the team. Fortunately, the Ember Knights were indeed of excellent quality, and the training content they inherited from the Demon Hunters also made them very targeted against monsters such as the Mist Demon. Therefore, only three of the knights were slightly injured, and they had been bandaged and treated.

However, after long marches and fierce battles, even though they were strong men who followed Lan En through the Battle of Sodden Mountain, most of them were now obviously listless and in a trance.

I'm really exhausted.

Triss and Tissaya also stood next to the body of the Dino Tyrannosaurus with its legs sunk into the ground. They covered their mouths and noses with perfumed handkerchiefs and looked at the huge dark green monster with amazed and serious expressions.

They are all warlocks, and their status as part-time researchers gives them not only Lincoln-like emotions about this terrifying monster they have never seen before, but also a subconscious desire to explore.

"Sir." One of the Ember Knights said tiredly but clearly, "Is the battle over now? How to deal with this body?"

The overall high quality of Ember Knight is reflected in one sentence.

They are not ordinary knights who only think about fighting and fighting. For ordinary knights, it is over once the battle is over.

But for this group of Ember Knights who take Lan En as their example and goal, managing and controlling post-war effects is also part of the combat mission.

And they immediately realized the critical importance of this body.

The Mahakam Mountains suffered such huge ecological damage that it once threatened the safety of this river artery in the Pontal Valley.

If there is no explanation, I am afraid that the kings of the four northern kingdoms will have a hard time doing it.

But on the other hand

The Ember Knights all took off their helmets at this time, and their calm, tacit and thoughtful glances communicated silently with each other.

It must be stated in advance that although the Ember Knights became famous together with Lann at the Battle of Sodden Mountain, they have received warm hospitality and warm arrangements from King Foltest of Temeria.

But they don't trust the four northern countries very much.

Among them are the reasons why the first Battle of Soden failed.

At that time, the internal command authority of the four northern armies was unclear and they were restrained by each other, which led to a great rout. Finally, they were able to regain the upper hand in front of the Nilfgaardian Army at Soden Mountain.

In addition, at the end of the Battle of Sodden Mountain, the Ember Knights who followed Lan En witnessed with their own eyes the fanatical atmosphere among the soldiers from the Four Nations on the battlefield for their general.

On the battlefield of life and death, the leader who can lead the team to victory is God!

And Lan En, in full view of everyone, killed all the 'gods' in Nilfgaard along the way! Brought the final victory!

After the war, although Lan En was accidentally teleported away by Triss, the soldiers still maintained respect and fanaticism for him.

This fanaticism even spread to the Ember Knights led by Lan En.

It's hard to say how much of the current reputation of the Ember Knights was brought about by Lan En, the leader.

Under such a collective mood, the Ember Knights maintained their utmost calmness and anger because of Lan En's unexpected teleportation.

They were able to pay attention to their surroundings amid the chaotic wave of emotions.

According to their observations, as the kings of the four northern kingdoms, they saw that the soldiers who should have been loyal to them were so fanatical about other people after the war. Of course, the kings' real mood was not very good.

Their attitudes were inconspicuous in the chaos of the time, and each of the kings was the most profound master of performance, with extremely quick and natural mood changes.

But those emotions were still seen by the Ember Knights. This has led to today’s distrust.

If it was before, then they just came here with their master to do Foltest a favor and ensure the safety of the Pontar Valley, so naturally they would do whatever was necessary after the work was done.

But just now, Lan En had already told them about his goals with Saskia and Iorveth.

A free city with racial equality. The Ember Knights like this idea.

On the one hand, after being baptized from hell, they themselves have their own thoughts on deep issues such as society, race, and justice, and they resonate with their adults.

On the other hand, the title of "Duke" on their head is still an empty title. In their hearts, this is really ugly.

Under such circumstances, the Ember Knights had their own hesitations about whether to be honest with Temeria.

"Sir, I see that you are familiar with this monster before. Have you seen it before?" Lincoln asked while wiping the blood from the Dino Rex skin on his hands. "But doesn't it come from the intersection of the celestial spheres?"

"It's precisely because I came from the intersection of the celestial spheres that I know him."

Lan En said simply. He had not yet told the Ember Knights in detail about his agreement with the Lady of the Lake and his mission.

But it was only a matter of time.

After all, the Ember Knights are his most trustworthy force.

Thinking of this, Lan even pointed to the body of the Tyrannosaurus with great interest and briefly explained it to Lincoln and Tissaya.
