Chapter 492: The Origin of Demon Hunting, the Sword of Dwarves

The convergence of the heavens and the earth was a great cataclysm that occurred more than a thousand years ago.

Worlds in different dimensions collided, and worlds were connected to each other.

It was the intersection of several worlds at a certain point in time that brought magic, a supernatural power, to this continent.

In addition, various ferocious monsters such as trolls, ghouls, vampires, and werewolves were also left behind on this continent...

In order to hunt these monsters and protect the safety of our homes and people, a special profession, the "demon hunter", came into being!

However, demon hunters are not brave men who voluntarily come out to resist monsters, but are the products of sorcerers who have mastered the power of magic.

The warlocks first took in homeless orphans one by one, and then continued to carry out high-intensity physical training and various trials of demon hunters, and finally passed the most important step - the "Trial of Green Grass"

The Trial of Green Grass actually means that every demon hunter apprentice who is about to become a demon hunter takes an alchemical decoction called "Green Grass". The drug and magic cause genetic mutations in the body structure and functions, thus completely changing the world and the world.

Strengthen their bodies.

Only by successfully passing the Green Grass Trial and surviving subsequent mutations can a demon hunter apprentice truly become a professional and efficient monster hunter!

However, the mutation process of the Green Grass Trial is very painful, and the success rate is very low. Only less than 30% of children can pass the trial.

This information is the background of the world that Lu Qi learned while playing the game.

Although when I was playing the game, I longed for the heroism of the witcher traveling the world and slaying monsters.

At a certain moment when he was immersed in the game world, he wished he could immediately enter the world of the witcher, become a witcher, and fight alongside Geralt.

However, when he really came to the world of witchers and had a real chance to become a witcher, he didn't think so.

Otherwise, first of all, the success rate of the Green Grass Trial is too low. If you are not careful, you may die.

Moreover, the status of demon hunters in this world is really too low.

Due to long-standing prejudices, provocations and false rumors, the profession of witcher was feared by the world, and later even hated.

While playing the game, when he controlled Geralt to enter villages and cities, civilians and soldiers would look at Geralt with disgust.

Some are even more bold? They spit on the ground and cursed Geralt: "Freak!"

If he couldn't defeat the soldiers guarding the city? Lu Qi could not wait to draw his sword on the spot? Let these damn unscrupulous people see what the devil hunter's New Year sword technique is!

It’s so damn disgusting to have such a powerful body but live an extremely miserable life!

Besides? With his current physical fitness? Coupled with the [Eagle Vision] that can sense everything around him, as long as he does not encounter extremely powerful monsters or warlocks who master magic, there will basically not be much danger?

No need to risk mutation anymore? Become a despised demon hunter.

However, he planned to find an opportunity to get a knight or noble title, get a fief or something, and experience the feeling of a medieval noble lord.

But? These are things for the future.

What he has to do now? Is to leave the village as soon as possible and find Geralt? Trigger [World Quest]

...

Another half month has passed.

As summer approaches, Lu Qi, who has already saved a small sum of money, feels that the time has come.

So? One evening, after the workshop closed, while having dinner with Weige, Lu Qi suddenly said:

"Weige, I have something to tell you."

Hearing this, the dwarf man sitting across from the wooden table, holding a glass of rye vodka into his mouth, moved his hands for a moment, and then responded in a deep voice:

"What's up?"

"I might have to leave here..."

He poured all the wine in the glass into his mouth, wiped the traces of wine on the corner of his mouth, and Wei Ge, who was a little confused from drinking, realized what he was doing, put the empty wine glass on the table with a "pop", and asked repeatedly:

"Leave? Where are you going?"

Looking at the bewildered bearded dwarf, Lu Qi picked up the wine can, poured wine into Weige's wine glass, and spoke the words he had prepared:

"Besides me, there were other companions who escaped death when they were robbed by bandits. However, in the panic, we scattered. So, I have to go find them and confirm whether they are dead or alive.

.”

"where are they?"

"I don't know, it could be anywhere on the mainland."

"That's it..."

After a pause, Weige, who had already regained consciousness, looked at Lu Qi's young face, and then asked:

"Then what are you going to do?"

"I plan to go to Vizima to find out about them. It is the largest city in Temeria. Maybe some of the travelers who come and go know their whereabouts."

"when are we leaving?"

"Three days later. I have already negotiated the price with a business group. I will set off with them, first to Maribo City, and then find a way to get to Vizima. After all, it is too far away from Vizima and the road is not safe.

.”

"It seems that you have already made a plan..."

Looking at the dwarf brother who suddenly fell silent and picked up the wine glass and poured it into his mouth, Lu Qi couldn't help but blinked and then said seriously:

"Weige, thank you for taking care of me all the time."

""

"Come! Let's have a good drink today. No one can leave until we drink and lie down!"

"good!"

...

Three days later, when Lu Qi prepared a backpack, brought some dry food and a few changes of clothes, and walked out of the barn where he had lived for more than three months, the short Weige was already standing in the yard, waiting.

he.

In the dwarf's hand, he held a long sword with a sheath.

"Take it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the dwarf threw the long sword in his hand to Lu Qi.

He caught the long sword with one hand, made a "clang" sound, and then pulled out the long sword.

Although he had only been a blacksmith apprentice for a few months, Lu Qi quickly recognized the long sword in his hand, looking at the cold gleaming blade and its structure. It was a half-hand sword that could stab and chop.

.

The pommel of the sword is engraved with an exquisite black eagle head, and the sword is also engraved with a line of small words in dwarven script - "Made by Weger"

After admiring it for a while, Lu Qi inserted the sword into the scabbard. Then he looked at the dwarf brother and asked:

"Is this for me?"

"Nonsense, is there anyone else here besides you?!"

In the wizarding world full of dangers, Lu Qi once thought about buying a long sword.

However, he did not take action in the end.

On the one hand, it's because he already has the tactical dagger he got in the lottery, which can be used as a self-defense weapon.

On the other hand, the price of a steel sword is too expensive, costing at least five orens.

Although working in a blacksmith workshop allowed him to save six orens in just three and a half months. However, part of this money was given to the business group as protection money. The remaining part must be kept.

Keep it in case of emergencies.

However, he never expected that Brother Weige, whom he secretly called a "dwarf capitalist", would actually give him a steel sword that looked very sophisticated!

"This is the proud work I made when I was young. I have never been willing to sell it to others. Now I give it to you, even as a way to repay you for helping me make a lot of money in the past few months. And what about your toothbrush?

I also like the food very much, and I won’t have meat stuck between my teeth anymore when I eat it.”

Looking at the honest face of the bearded dwarf, Lu Qi paused and thanked him sincerely:

"Thank you, Wigg."

Waving his hand seemingly impatiently, Weige scratched his beard and said in a deep voice:

"You're welcome, we are friends. Besides, weapons are made to deal with danger, not to be hung on the wall for admiration."

"I hope it can protect you from robbers or monsters."

Hearing this, Lu Qi looked down at the sword in his hand again:

"This sword, does it have a name?"
