Chapter 104 103. Half-Murloc Sacrifice
After sending away Selena who was very curious about life in the big city, Lan touched the cone-shaped crystal in his waist pocket again.
"Rita, are you still there?"
"I'm always waiting for you."
The sorceress opposite, even if she doesn't mean to flirt at this time , but being charming has become her instinct.
The words you say can make every man's bones fall apart.
Fortunately, Lan En's aesthetic standards are now very high, and he is not so confused just because of two sentences.
"Tell me about [Necromancy]. I heard it is a forbidden spell?"
"Necromancy?! Why do you ask this?"
< br>Margarita exclaimed, as if even mentioning the name of this spell made people feel ominous and taboo.
"The only clue is an insider I caught. He... should be said to have died in an accident. We can't give up this clue. Triss and Keira have done everything they can, but the other party's intelligence The control ability is as strong as Foltest himself. I said, the king should not be involved in the slave trade, right? "
"Absolutely impossible," Margarita said firmly. .
“The prohibition of slavery can be implemented in the northern countries because this system is in the interests of the northern countries. The interests of the country are the interests of the king. Although Foltest is not a restrained person, he is definitely Smart. Why do you have such a taboo?”
“As for [Necromancy], Lan En, even if the clue is cut off, I will not support you in using this spell!”< br>
The demon hunter frowned slightly.
"Rita, those children are about to be transported to the south and trained as bed slaves!"
"That is better than having the magic of a land unbalanced, monsters raging, and the soil losing power! [Necromancy] To go against the flow of the soul! Even if it is temporary, it will inevitably lead to backlash!"
When Lan En heard this, he immediately ground his molars in confusion.
He originally thought that [Necromancy] was banned only because it required high mana from the warlock and the consequences of failure would be serious.
Then as long as he finds a powerful warlock to help him, it won't be a problem.
But I didn't expect that the spell itself would cause harm to the world's environment when cast!
It would be fine if Lan En was a person who would do anything to achieve his goals.
But the reason why Gunter O'Dimm threw the body here is because he knew that Lan En was not this kind of person.
I want to free the slaves and kill the mastermind behind it.
These ideas all come from Lan En’s own moral values.
For this reason, even if he is alone, he dares to fight against the opponent's huge power group to the end.
But because of this, he cannot pursue [Necromancy] regardless of the consequences.
Morality is a limitation on oneself. Since this limitation comes from the will of life itself, Lan En will not exceed it.
Because you encounter difficulties, feel tired, and find it difficult, do you cross the bottom line you set for yourself?
What kind of man do you think you are? !
"Understood, I won't think about [Necromancy] again. Let's stop talking this time, I have to meet someone."
"Take care, Lan En. I'm sorry, I'm here I can’t help you much.”
“Stop it, Rita. Fifteen hundred oren and two royal consultants, ordinary people can’t make that much money in their lifetimes.” Not a high-ranking warlock."
Margarita was silent for a moment and then spoke hesitantly.
"If, I mean if, Lan En. If you really don't have a clue yet, you can go back to Eritu first"
"No if."
The witcher flatly refused.
"I will not fail. At least this time, I will not fail."
Before the sorceress could react, Lan En's hand took out the alchemical leather bag.
He placed Aaliya not far away with the limp corpse, and he himself followed Selena's directions and came to the altar of the half-murloc.
When he hung up Margarita's "phone", the witcher happened to see a half-murloc on the altar base near the lake. It seemed that he had been waiting there for a long time. It was precisely because of this attitude that Lan En was sure that the hands and feet on the portal he passed through were inseparable from the half-murloc.
But it’s no big deal.
Compared with the chilling glass boy, even the ignorant water ghost can be called "friendly and friendly".
The half-murloc man is holding a scepter-like object, which looks like a sacrifice. He has fish scale skin, a stooped waist as high as a human chest, thin arms and thin legs.
Wearing a brass and filter respirator mask on his head, it looks a bit steampunk style.
A few long catfish-like whiskers leaked out from the sides of the respirator.
This is the first time Lan En has communicated with an intelligent creature that is so different from human beings.
After arriving at the altar, the demon hunter was not sloppy at all and went straight to the half-murloc to offer sacrifices.
"Human language, okay?"
"I can speak your language. Very good."
The half-murloc priest was not surprised and started the conversation naturally.
“Did you pull me here? You look like a spell caster.”
The breathing mask of the half-murloc priest seemed to be spitting out phlegm, “Gulu gulu "Laughter.
"Spellcaster, I don't know how. It is the great lady who summons you."
The half-fish man said, raising the scepter in his hand upwards and pointing at the main body of the altar.
It was a beautiful female statue with pointed ears and open arms amidst the waves.
The Lady of the Lake.
"Great Lady" Lan En crossed his arms and smiled.
“What’s the point of finding a lowly witcher?”
"We need a good witcher to do things. Very! Very! Dirty things have appeared in the lake. Now."
"Then how does this lady know that I am a good enough person?" Where is the 'good demon hunter'?"
"The lady will listen." When he said this, the half-fish man's not very solemn attitude suddenly changed when facing Lan En.
It holds the scepter in its pious hands and turns to face the statue.
Told in a ballad-like tone.
"The rising bubbles of the lake, the silent breathing of the trees, and the rippling fish. The lady listens to everything and spreads her kindness. You will feel this love, Witcher."
Blue En is unconvinced about the half-murloc's determination.
But he would not question other people's beliefs at the beginning, so he also followed the half-fish man and bowed to the statue to show respect.
The half-murloc man nodded with satisfaction.
“I am happy to help kind creatures, whether they are humans or half-murlocs.”
After Lan En straightened up again, he first expressed his preference.
The half-murlocs here are living in harmony with humans. There are even human children playing on the base of the half-murloc altar.
In this world where racial discrimination is becoming increasingly acute, it is rare that Lan En likes it.
Then, let’s talk about practical things.
“But I think that whether on the water or under the water, mutual help and mutual assistance should be interdependent. To put it bluntly, I have a lot of experience in killing monsters. But I am also in trouble now, I believe the lady should also understand my trouble.”
Lane's thumb pointed back, in the direction where Urbank's body lay.
