Chapter 296 It's time to go home
The cool morning breeze came from the mountains, rustling the leaves.

The air blew into the iconostasis room, which was bright in the misty morning because of its exquisite structure.

Under the warm sunlight, the young man curled up on the ground, his eyebrows slightly furrowed in his sleep.

"Chirp~"

The clear sound of birds singing came from outside the window.

The young man with two swords on his back suddenly opened his eyes. His azure pupils trembled for a moment and then quickly changed from a line to a circle.

"what--"

After screaming subconsciously, he realized that he was not melting.

Hands wrapped in leather armor, arms and legs covered in woven iron mesh...

He is intact.

There was no hot lava that turned him into steaming blood starting from his hands.

"Do not……"

The witcher withdrew his right hand from the wooden pillar.

He looked at the palm print on the pillar, which was sunken and particularly obvious.

After being stunned for two seconds, he put his palms in front of his eyes and gently clenched them.

"boom!"

The abundant power exploded the air in the palm of the hand in an instant.

He...seems stronger.

He stood up blankly.

“Click, click, click~”

The bones all over the body seemed to be setting off firecrackers and the muscles seemed to contain huge energy like a volcanic eruption.

"What did I do? Why did I suddenly become so much stronger?"

With a thought, he opened the Demon Hunting Notes.

[Name: Ailin]

【Age: 14】

[Title: Child of Miracle]

【生命值：100%，体力值650/650，魔力730/730】

【属性：力量61（+10），敏捷60（+10），体质65（+10），感知68，神秘73】

【亲和：水14（魔源·水4%）、地9，风8，火3，空间2】

What the hell!

Strength, agility and physique increased by one fifth!

No wonder the changes are so obvious, I even feel like I can’t control my body.

And if he remembered correctly...

[Name: Vesemir]

[Attributes: Strength 53, Agility 57, Constitution 69, Perception 70, Mysticism 42]

"really……"

"Vesemir currently only has one physical attribute that is four points higher than mine, and his average attribute is far lower than mine!"

The demon hunter was delighted.

Now, even without using the blizzard and giant ghoul decoction, he should be able to easily defeat Vesemir... right?
Ailin was a little unsure, so he decided to find an opportunity to give it a try.

"but……"

"Where does this sudden improvement come from?"

Coming back to his senses from the great joy of his improved strength, he began to recall what happened last night.

"Could it be that King Kano?" the demon hunter muttered.

Yes!

Before he passed out, this was the only possibility that would make his strength improve by leaps and bounds.

But the demon hunter still felt that it was a little unreal.

Where on earth did those seven golden treasure chests take him?
Vision, hearing, smell, touch...

He could even feel the powerful pressure and the rapid improvement in his current strength. Everything seemed real...

but……

But this obviously can't be true!

Not to mention the source comes from seven golden treasure chests.

In the "Beast Roar: Rampage" cutscene, he saw with his own eyes that last night's endless green had turned into a desert.

The one-eyed snake giants rushed towards the unknown enemy with a fearless attitude of death.

and also……

"Whoo~"

Before he fell into coma, he heard a sigh from the depths of his mind, and the one-eyed snake giant reflected in King Kano's eyes.

Is he Italiano?

Is it the one-eyed ghost spirit that was still screaming loudly after he used Balmer to deal with it?

……

The impossible becomes reality, making the mystery more and more mysterious...

The demon hunter looked at the translucent ancient pages in front of him with a complicated expression.

He became more and more curious about the origin of the Demon Hunting Notes.

"Oh right..." The hunter, confused by a series of bizarre conjectures caused by the sudden increase in strength, suddenly thought of a question:
"What did you get from the red 'treasure chest' last night, and the purple treasure chest that hasn't been merged yet?"

The moment I opened the system prompt, a reminder popped up without me having to read it.

[Ding! Obtained: Way of Beast Roar, Beast Roar Horn blessed by the One-Eyed Clan*1]

Ok?
The Way of the Beast Roar...

The demon hunter was stunned.

Is this some kind of skill?

Bring up the inventory and flip through it from top to bottom.

But the only new item added to the inventory was a gray-brown, chipped, ancient horn pattern.

[Name: The Blessed Beast Roar Horn of the One-Eyed Clan]

[Type: magic props]

[Function: Use this howl to perform the Way of Roar, moderately increase the intensity of the roar, and greatly increase the range of the roar]

[Note: The blessing from the alien god Shagdarzab not only greatly increases the power of the Beast Roar Horn, but also has special effects when worn daily.]

The properties of the Beast Horn seem good.

But it is obvious that this is an exclusive item that can only bless the Way of Beast Roar.

Then the problem is coming.

"Where is the Way of Beast Roar?"

Ailin opened his personal panel again and began to search in the skill column.

However, he did not hold out much hope for this. After all, this was not a game. Skills could be released with a click of the mouse and keyboard, and the operator did not need to know how to use them.

Except for special skills, the skills that appear in the skill column of the personal panel are definitely those that he knows.

It is impossible that you have learned a new skill without any impression in your mind.

"There is no special skill column..."

Ailin hesitated for a moment, then continued to look down.

"what……"

He noticed that there were some changes in the "Beast Roar" he drew last time, so he blinked and looked over carefully.

wrong!

It seems that what I drew before was not Beast Roar, but Battle Roar...

The demon hunter frowned slightly and checked the details with his mind.

[Name: Rage]

[Type: Beast Roar]

[Learning requirements: Introduction to the Way of Beast Roar]

[Passive effect: Maintain the power of "Beast Roar: Violence" on a daily basis.
1. Slowly increase Strength, Agility and Constitution attributes.

2. Increase the casting speed of "Beast Roar: Frenzy" by %.

3. Increase the roar intensity and range of "Beast Roar: Frenzy" by %. 】

[Active effect: Consume energy to roar, causing friendly targets within range to enter a frenzy state. After the frenzy state ends, enter a weakened state.]

[Note: Use active effects with caution. After entering the Way of Beast Roar, the restrictions are lifted. Under extreme conditions, "Beast Roar: Frenzy" can cause the roarer and the affected target to die after the frenzy state ends! ! ! ]

?

? ?
!!!

"Does this have anything to do with the original skill?"

The witchers couldn't believe their eyes.

Passive effect plus active effect, what kind of magical skill is this?
The most important thing: "Slowly increase strength, agility and constitution attributes."

Can talking and breathing make you stronger?

I remembered that when I opened the panel this morning, my three attributes of strength, agility and constitution had been enhanced.

"Perhaps this is also the work of King Kano?" the demon hunter thought.

Another difference from the battle cry is that the level of the beast roar has also been cancelled.

Although this meant that Ailin could no longer use experience beads to increase the power of Beast Roar, it would not occupy his level.

not to mention.

Just looking at the skill effect of "Beast Roar: Fury", it is completely equivalent to obtaining it at the maximum level.

It does not take up the god-level skills of the character level. Now.

The demon hunter only had one last question in his mind:
"Where is the Way of Beast Roar?"

He turned the pages of the Demon Hunting Notes carefully from beginning to end.

Personal panel, inventory, monster encyclopedia, divine entry...

what!
The demon hunter suddenly discovered that after the page of entry into the divine world, there was another page that could be turned.

On the quaint gray-brown label were written four large, mottled characters: "The Way of the Beast's Roar".

"Roar!"

As soon as he turned to this page, a desolate roar came from the demon hunter's mind.

"嗤啦~"

As if glass was shattered by the roar, the page covered by darkness suddenly cracked.

A strange scarlet light emanated from the cracks.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

There were two more roars, each louder than the last.

The darkness completely shattered and dissipated.

A gray heart appeared in front of the witcher, like a stone heart.

Countless withered veins extend from the center of the stone to the surrounding areas, with large and small nodules in the veins.

Search along these lines.

The veins in the left, right, and bottom directions are all gray and extend into nothingness.
Only at the very top there was a large red nodule, which looked like a human throat.

All thoughts were focused on it, and [Beast Roar: Violence] immediately jumped out.

From this large red nodule downward towards the heart, a small gray nodule also appears.

The veins between the two are trembling, as if red is transporting blood and energy to gray.

So this is...

Skill tree?

Thoughts converge on that gray dot.

[Ding! Have you mastered "Beast Roar: Language of Nature"? ]

Is it possible to learn without paying any price?
Ailin hesitated for a second, then made up his mind.

"boom!"

The vein in the middle trembled, suddenly knocking the gray dot into trembling and dyeing it red.

next moment.

A lot of information flooded into my mind.

[Name: The Language of the Wild]

[Type: Beast Roar]

[Learning requirements: Introduction to the Way of Beast Roar, and mastering "Beast Roar: Violence"]

[Passive Effect: Maintain the power of "Beast Roar: Wildness" on a daily basis.
1. Slowly improve perception attributes.

2. Reduce the hostility of low-intelligence creatures】

[Active effect: Consumes energy, allowing the Howler to perceive the thoughts of low-intelligence creatures and transmit simple instructions.]

[Note: Are you sure that the Way of Beast Roar is not the Way of Druids? ]

not bad.

It's a very practical skill, but it's a pity that it can only improve perception attributes through daily maintenance.

After absorbing the information in his mind, the witcher followed the thread downwards.

Three small nodules branch out here, one of which goes directly to the heart.

The other two are on either side.

When one focuses his mind on them, the names displayed are [Beast Roar: Whisper of Life], [Beast Roar: Trap Perception], and [Beast Roar: Smell Elimination] respectively.

[Beast Roar: Whisper of Life] is exactly the node that connects this main vein.

The witcher thought about it.

Although the function of [Beast Roar: Whisper of Life] is difficult to understand literally, the last two are quite easy to understand.

Especially [Beast Roar: Smell Elimination], which is a perfect match with the magic item "Night" given to him by Francesca, which can make him invisible and mute.

Let's imagine.

If a person could be invisible at night, make no sound, and not emit any smell.

correct!

There is also a cat's eye potion that can help you see at night...

Even Ailin himself couldn't figure out how to prevent such stealth.

However, considering that mastering the Beast Roar might not be without cost, the Demon Hunter still chose [Beast Roar: Whisper of Life].

After all, it blocks the main vein that leads directly to the heart.

And the further you go, the stronger the roar of the beasts will be on the larger nodules of the veins.

Also.

The beast roar on the main vein will definitely be important sooner or later, and you will definitely not lose out.

then.

The demon hunter had an idea.

[Ding! Do you want to spend 100 experience beads to complete "Beast Roar: Whisper of Life"? ]

He carefully looked at the bright red text in front of him for a long time, then exited and clicked on the other two beast roars, all of which required 100 experience beads.

"Outrageous!"

He saved for half a year and finally managed to save up less than two hundred experience beads.

I used 100 of them for the spiritual power last night, and now there are only 77 left. I can’t even use a single beast roar.

"Demon Hunter Notes, you are so dark!!!"

The witcher gnashed his teeth.

He opened the red treasure chest - the Way of Beast Roar - with his own ability, so why should he spend experience beads to buy skills?
and.

Seals, alchemy, rituals, swordsmanship...

There are so many skills, and there is also the "Skill: Flash" that he had long planned to invest heavily in after the curse was lifted.

How could he possibly invest all his experience beads here?

At this moment.

Just as Ailin gritted his teeth and was about to shut down the Way of Beast Roar, he looked at the system records that he had not had time to review due to various setbacks after the curse was lifted.

The wave of [Beast Roar: Whisper of the Wild] that was penetrated surged to the large gray nodule behind [Beast Roar: Whisper of Life].

The words [Beast Roar: No Fly] flashed for a second and then disappeared.

The witcher stopped moving.

"I...I think I found a way to deal with the Wild Hunt..."

At this time.

"Boom~"

A familiar sound came from outside the sanctuary.

Not long after, elegant footsteps were heard outside the corridor of the iconostasis room.

"It's Ms. Vera..."

The witcher looked up at the sky and it was indeed getting late.

"Alin, what about the evil god's curse? Has it been removed?"

Before Vera entered the iconostasis room, a worried voice came from outside the corridor.

Subsequently.

That delicate face, so smooth and white that the pores were almost invisible, appeared at the door with a burst of hurried but elegant footsteps.

The aroma of orange mixed with cardamom hits you in the face.

The demon hunter thought for a moment and put away the demon hunting notes.

"If the curse cannot be resolved, we can go to Maribor in southern Temeria..."

"I have contacted Ms. Visenna, the owner of the Ring of Mainadrui, through a letter last night. Druids are good at purification and medicine, so maybe there is a way to cure this curse..."

"don’t worry!"

"Ms. Visenna and I have been friends for many years. She will do her best to treat you..."

The witcher didn't have time to answer.

Vera spoke a lot of words like a string of arrows, persuading Ailin to follow her to the Druid's Circle in Mayna.

This concern that went beyond words made him feel warm in his heart.

Ms. Vera, who has no relatives or friends with him, has been trying her best to find a way for him to get rid of the curse.

The master of the druidic circle...

If you want to invite such an important person, even if he is a long-time friend, it will definitely cost a lot.

"I'm fine." Ailin said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll ask Ianna now..." The sorceress was stunned, "Um...what did you say?"

"The evil god's curse was lifted by the goddess last night," Ailin nodded, "We can return to the Ancient Sea Fortress today."

When the sorceress heard this, she could hardly conceal her joy on her face.

"Chirp~"

The sun is shining outside the window, kingfishers are singing, and there are green trees.

It's been a long time since I left Kaer Morhen. It's time to go home...
