Chapter 30 Exploration
Looking through the various firearms on display, Geralt couldn't help but think of his own crossbow, and felt that he might consider getting a new gun to replace it.
After all, compared to firearms, crossbows do seem far too outdated.
"But there are just too many kinds of guns here!"
Geralt looked at the dazzling list and felt a headache coming on; he was suffering from decision paralysis.
"Forget it, let's ask Zhang Jie and the others tomorrow before making a decision!"
Geralt really didn't know which one to choose!
If you ask Geralt how to kill monsters, Geralt is an expert.
"Let's take a look at the other categories and see what they have!"
Geralt wanted to get a general idea of what the four categories of things were in the main god's domain tonight.
Geralt opened the list of magical legends while thinking about it.
"Wow, there are so many good things in this category!"
Geralt was captivated as he flipped through the pages; almost every page contained magical legendary equipment that Geralt liked.
Geralt was particularly drooling over some of the powerful swords.
Some of these magical weapons require S-rank side quests to obtain in exchange.
Unfortunately, Geralt couldn't afford to exchange for it.
Geralt then closed the page on magical legends and opened the pages on auxiliary and entertainment categories in turn.
The support-type abilities also broadened Geralt's horizons; he realized that bloodlines could be enhanced.
The bloodlines here in the main god are all-encompassing; as long as you strengthen them, success is guaranteed, and it's a version with all side effects removed.
Geralt, realizing this, directly contacted the main god:
"Search for The Witcher!"
The next second, the Witcher's enhancement list appeared before Geralt's eyes:
"The Witcher's mutated bloodline is enhanced, so they do not have to go through the pain and danger of the Trial of the Grass, and their appearance will not be changed, nor will their mind be affected."
"Suitable for horror movies with lower difficulty levels. After enhancement, it slightly improves physical fitness, slightly enhances sensory abilities such as vision and hearing, and greatly enhances the sense of smell, enabling the user to distinguish different odors."
"Recovery ability slightly improved, toxin resistance greatly improved."
"One-time bloodline enhancement, rating 67 points, enhancement price: 1 D-level side quest, 700 reward points."
Geralt also noticed a line of bold text from the chief god at the end:
"This bloodline has low potential for further development; those who wish to reincarnate should carefully consider whether to enhance it!"
Upon seeing this, Geralt's expression completely crumbled, or rather, his feelings were incredibly complex.
Because the main god only gave a brief introduction to the lineage, but the information revealed in it...
This had a very significant impact on Geralt.
Without having to endure the pain and danger of the Trial of the Grass, Geralt stared at the light screen in his mind, his thoughts beginning to wander.
He was lost in memories of the past, thinking of those who had died in the Grass Trial, at this stage.
It's important to know that it takes about 10 to 12 years to become a Wolf Hunter, and you need to start learning from the age of 6.
Every day, you need to learn basic survival skills, memorize the habits and weaknesses of thousands of monsters, and the Witcher's Code.
At the same time, you must practice the basic sword techniques, and practice for no less than 8 hours a day.
Until these basic sword techniques, such as swinging the sword, blocking, and footwork, become muscle memory.
Around the age of 12, they will begin taking a "primary mutation adaptant" once a week as preparation for eventually passing the Grass Trial.
The goal is to gradually transform the body, enhancing its resistance to toxins and overall health.
Even so, at this stage, about 30% of Witcher apprentices will die or become disabled because they cannot withstand the side effects of the potion.
At the same time, Witcher apprentices during this period also had to begin learning "magical runes" to draw the Witcher's mark.
Around the age of 15, they will begin practical training, sparring with professional witchers using wooden swords to simulate scenarios of fighting various monsters.
For example, how to avoid the ghoul's claws, how to accurately avoid the werewolf's ribs and pierce the werewolf's heart.
In terms of academic subjects, they have begun to learn some simple potion-making techniques.
After completing all the above exercises and learning, you will then begin the final Grass Trial.
Witcher apprentices need to drink a decoction called "Green Grass," which completely alters the nervous, skeletal, and muscular systems.
The entire body will undergo a process of breaking down and rebuilding from the inside out, which can be described as being shattered to pieces.
Moreover, you need to remain conscious throughout this process and survive for 7 days to be able to live.
During this stage, only 10% of Witcher apprentices are able to successfully survive the mutation.
However, with the main god, you can obtain it effortlessly with just one D-level side quest and 700 reward points.
Although the enhancement here by the main god is only physical enhancement, it does not include the infusion of knowledge.
However, for apprentices who want to become Witchers, the most difficult thing is the Trial of the Grasses.
As for not changing his appearance and mind, Geralt, being someone who had been through it all, clearly understood the importance of these two points.
Geralt thought of the Witcher's distinctive orange cat eyes, which made him a freak wherever he went.
Not accepted by others, and discriminated against.
Yes, even though you identify as human, no one but yourself will think of a Witcher as human.
As for the matter of sanity, Geralt thought of the Cat Witchers, who generally developed extreme personalities after passing the Trial of the Grass.
A large number of cat-themed witchers became professional assassins.
The reason why Witchers are disliked and have a bad reputation is largely due to the fact that Cat Witchers take on assassination jobs everywhere.
Geralt forced an ugly and helpless smile, having paid such a high price for the bloodline.
However, the evaluation from the Supreme God is very low.
However, there was one thing that puzzled Geralt: the chief god said this was a one-time enhancement, so logically it should be able to be enhanced once more.
So Geralt asked the chief god:
"Why isn't there any enhancement from the Witcher's second mutation? I clearly underwent a second mutation myself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a beam of divine light descended, enveloping Geralt before vanishing in a flash.
The whole process lasted only about a second.
The mechanical and majestic voice of the supreme god echoed in Geralt's mind:
"Witcher bloodline enhancement, currently only provides a one-time enhancement."
"Examples of Witchers who have undergone secondary mutations are extremely rare, with only two successful cases, and currently there is only one known reincarnator."
"Not representative or universally applicable."
"After evaluating various aspects such as risk, potential, return on investment, and comparison with similar bloodline enhancements, it was determined that it is not suitable for inclusion in the enhancement system."
Geralt frowned upon hearing this, and after thinking for a long time, asked:
"God, can I continue to mutate?"
After a silence of more than ten seconds, the main god replied:
"Those who are destined for reincarnation, please conduct your own research and deduction!"
