Chapter 9 9. The Law of Accident
The demon hunter's body has been magically transformed, and his lifespan is much longer than that of ordinary people, so even his heartbeat frequency is much lower than that of ordinary people.
Bordon's bleeding is much slower than that of ordinary people.
But even so, after being stabbed into the abdominal cavity with a halberd, the witcher's blood still accumulated in a red puddle underneath him.
Both Lan En and Bordon knew that he did not have much time.
The smelly monster blood, human blood, and the earthy smell of the grass in the gaps in the armor gathered together to form a strange stench.
Not long ago, Lan En would spit out bile after being exposed to this smell for less than three seconds.
But now, his boots stepped on the puddle of blood, emitting fishy smell and ripples, but he felt nothing.
It is undeniable that he has been changed by this world.
“You have survived the mutation completely from the beginning.”
Bordon said with some difficulty.
"You have feelings."
It was a stumble, but it was shocking enough. The halberd soldiers collecting the captain's body next to him were dumbfounded, and they pulled their companions and walked further away.
Normal people should have entered a dying state by now. Demon hunters are indeed mutants.
Lan En didn't mind being dirty and sat down directly opposite Bordon on the muddy ground soaked in blood.
This is the most relaxed moment he has had in a month.
He smiled relaxedly, "Yes, that's right."
As he spoke, he nodded his head with his index finger.
"I'm very lucky. The mutation process didn't take away anything from me."
Bordon's hairy head nodded numbly, but the only thing in his heart was incredible. You know it yourself.
The process of transforming an ordinary person into a witcher is too painful for humans to bear.
Most witchers have eccentric temperaments. This phenomenon is not only caused by physiological changes caused by mutations, but also largely caused by mental distortions caused by excessive pain.
And a young man like that actually made a plan immediately after the seven-day sudden change and concealed his emotions?
——Are you kidding? !
In numb shock, Bordon recalled his first meeting with Lan En.
That young man whose skin is so delicate that even aristocratic ladies would be jealous, that young man whose legs weaken when he sees a severed head.
That is not a man who has endured hardship! That's not even a person who has seen the cruel world!
Bordon had always thought that Lan En was a blood relative of a great nobleman from a distant country who was accidentally exiled here due to a teleportation accident.
However, a soft-footed shrimp that has never suffered hardship will not have this kind of will and thinking.
Bordon is a witcher who has experienced the mutation process. In his impression, even the most tenacious and proud son of a warrior will be like a puddle of mud that can be trampled on during the mutation process.
But Lan En
“You are not, the son of a noble from a distant country, right?”
Bordon’s mouth was still bleeding, but he still stared at him. The students spoke word by word.
“Even if he is Foltest’s son, I don’t believe that he will be like you.”
Foltest, the king of Temeria.
He is undoubtedly one of the most powerful men in the land. He will definitely be able to provide his heir with the world's top education and training, but Bordon still doesn't feel that the people trained in that way can compare with Lan En's current performance.
Far from it!
Mind, patience, determination. That is a gap that smells of ancient wisdom and blood!
He knew his situation from the beginning and even had a countermeasure immediately at the same moment.
At least in terms of historical experience, Foltest cannot teach such a person!
Lan En closed the alchemy bag in his hand and shrugged.
“A little insight, a little knowledge, coupled with the sense of crisis that I will die under your squeeze at any time. This is not difficult for the education I have experienced. Of course, I never said What kind of 'noble descendant' am I?"
"Oh, yes, everything is just my guess. You didn't say anything." Bordon sneered.
Lan En suddenly raised his head and opened his eyes wide, "Are you laughing?"
The increasingly weak strong man hesitated in surprise. He nodded, "Laughing? Maybe. Maybe it was the heavy bleeding that took away the element of suppressing emotions in my body. I hate you a little now, but it's too late, right. Right?"
Bordon's beard grinned and he put his leather gloves on his stomach, where the gaps in the armor were filled with his own blood.
If you move a little bit, it will overflow.
Yes, when the amount of bleeding has reached this point, nothing matters anymore.
"It seems that you did regain some feelings in the last moments of your life. So are you interested in talking about it?"
"Talk?" Bordon had an unskilled smile on his face and used his last effort to pupate on the ground, hoping to feel better.
Of course, this also caused more bleeding.
"What to talk about?"
"Talk about why you 'got' me. I don't think you would save a farmer who has no money."
Lan's He crossed his arms and stared at his teacher with interest.
He was given to Bordon by the "law of accident" - that is, fate - from the hands of a farmer.
The hellish mutation process, the life of an apprentice who is immersed in the sense of death crisis every moment, all originated from this "delivery".
Lan En is laughing now, but that doesn't mean he doesn't care anymore.
On the contrary, he still vividly remembers that day when he was passed on like a slave.
Bordong now knows everything, and he has nothing to care about.
"Ah, the law of accidents. Haha, that was really an accident."
The bearded man smiled weakly, and then explained the transaction process to Lan En.
Bordon only works for money. In his eyes, the suffering of farmers is no more rare than the weeds on the roadside.
But in the process of solving the mission goal, he somehow saved someone, and he will never give up the life-saving money.
Even if the other party doesn't put up a notice recruiting demon hunters, even if the other party is a farmer who can't even feed his family, he will definitely demand payment.
This is what bear witchers are most obsessed with.
But Bordon also knew that in Willen, a very poor place, a farmer was really too poor to even scrape out half a ounce of oil, so he said, "I have to get something, anything, but I can't be empty-handed." With the thought of "go back", he activated the law of accident.
So, when the unlucky farmer took Bordon home with a grimace, opened the broken door and let him take something away according to the law of accident.
The young man who inexplicably smashed through the roof of their house and was lying on the weeds was of course the obvious choice.
It is true that it is illegal to keep slaves in the northern countries.
But a guy who appears out of nowhere and has no identity or household registration certificate cannot be regarded as a "person" in any dynasty or country.
So, the farmer immediately stripped off the young man's clothes that looked good, and as his own property, drove him and the mutants on his side out of the house.
"It is such an experience, neither great nor surprising. Not every birth of a child of destiny will become a legend, such as you are not."
Bordon said sarcastically, he He is becoming more and more human now, but this phenomenon also means that there is less and less blood in his body.
“But for me, a humble demon hunter, your appearance was too coincidental and too ridiculous. Even if I had no feelings at that time, I was not willing to bear the responsibility for the violation. The risk of fate is to leave you behind. So even though the witcher has always been a loner, I finally turned you into a kindred spirit. Fortunately, you did a good job, and you have started to test the potion for me. Profitable.”
