"It turned out to be him."
Lynn felt relieved.
He put all his previous concerns, worries, and calculations behind his mind, walked straight forward, and sat down at the table next to the School of the Bear demon hunter.
"I hope you won't mind the generosity from your fellow countrymen, Gerd."
School of the Bear Demon Hunter, who had a shaved head like a native of the Islands, showed a warm smile that School of the Bear Demon Hunter should not have shown.
"I didn't expect to meet fellow demon hunters from other schools here, but how did you know my name? This must be our first meeting, right?"
"Eskel told me your name. I am Lynn from School of the Wolf."
Lynn lies without drafting.
The face is not red and the heart is not beating.
In fact, Eskel did mention Gerd's name.
Witchers have a long lifespan and can live for hundreds of years.
Except for School of the Viper and School of the Manticore, demon hunters from other schools are basically active in the north.
It's normal to encounter them.
But Eskel just mentioned it casually.
It's like going back to your hometown during the Chinese New Year and being attacked by someone else's dog in the village.
But what really made Lynn recognize each other at a glance was actually the memory from his previous life.
School of the Bear Demon hunter Gerd, although he has not officially appeared in the Witcher 3, his legend is everywhere in Skellige Isles.
"Eskel? Oh, it's him."
Gerd has no doubts about Lynn's words.
"So Lynn, Spikeroog, are you also here for the commissions on this island? Sorry, if I had known you would come here, I wouldn't have accepted all the commissions here."
"For the sake of your treat, if you don't mind, how about we come together? We'll share the reward equally?"
Lynn raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
"You are actually willing to let me share your reward?"
Witchers rarely work with other witchers.
Active invitations are even rarer.
This is actually not difficult to understand.
Even in Novigrad, a city with a huge population flow, and even a fool knows that it relies on outsiders to contribute to its development, there are still some Novigrad locals who think that outsiders have taken away the jobs that belong to them, so they hate and envy those outsiders.
Not to mention the Witcher, whose life has always been unsatisfactory.
"Haha, it seems that my colleague has left a bad impression on you," Gerd is quite self-aware and knows very well what kind of school School of the Bear is. Seeing the change in Lynn's expression, he said with a smile.
"You don't have to worry. I'm different from them. In fact, I've earned enough on Skellige Isles. As for money, I won't take it with me when I live, so why do I need so much? It's enough, what do you think?"
Since Gerd has already mentioned this, it would be rude for Lynn to refuse again.
"If you are willing to share the reward equally with me, then of course I have no objection."
"Hahaha, that's so refreshing. I'm determined to be your friend. Come, let's have a drink."
After staying in the pub for one night, the two left Svorlag Village early the next morning.
Walking on a wild path overgrown with weeds, Gerd told Lynn that he had two monster hunting commissions in his hand.
One is Clan Brokvar's subordinate, a warrior named "Iron Hand" Jorgen, who was ordered by the family leader to clean up a Melusine in a cave located in the northwest of the island.
The so-called Melusine is a female siren with an extremely large body, and other female sirens will obey its orders.
Before the demon hunters came to this island, many fishermen and islanders had been murdered by Melusine.
Therefore, the head of Clan Brokvar took out a very considerable reward and prepared to pay it to any warrior who could kill that monster.
Unfortunately, before Gerd accepted the commission, there were warriors who were confident in their martial arts and formed a team to conquer it.
Unfortunately, no one ever returned;
The second commission is the "blood red" Earl Torgil from the Tuirseach Clan.
He hopes that Gerd can clean up the Castle Etnir that Tuirseach Clan's ancestors once owned and are now surrounded by monsters.
That Earl Torgil also sent a subordinate to Gerd as a guide.
"Master Gerd, you are finally here."
A burly man with a shaved head, wearing armor, was hiding in a temporary camp leeward.
At first, he heard footsteps and subconsciously grabbed the weapon.
But when he saw clearly that the people coming were Lynn and Gerd, he slowly lowered his raised weapon.
Then say the paragraph above.
Gerd walked forward, slapped the strong man on the arm, and then said boldly.
"Let me introduce, this is Lord Earl Torgil's bodyguard Orwin. Orwin, and this is School of the Wolf's demon hunter Lynn."
Upon hearing that the young man accompanying Gerd turned out to be a demon hunter, Orwin subconsciously maintained respect and said, "Master Lynn."
"You're welcome." Lynn stretched out his hand and shook the other person's hand vigorously.
After the two got to know each other, Gerd patted his chest.
"Lynn will be with us on the next journey... Don't worry about the reward. When the time comes, I will give half of the bounty paid to me by Master Earl to Lynn."
"What did Master Gerd say? As long as we can successfully defeat that evil-doing monster, Master Earl will never be stingy with the reward."
Then, Orwin took out what he brought.
Two heavy crossbows.
There are also hundreds of crossbow arrows.
Although the female siren has the word "kraken" in its name, in fact, this beast can fly.
Without heavy crossbows, it's really hard to handle them.
After resting for about a night in this temporary camp, the three of them continued their journey the next day.
When the time came to the afternoon of the third day, the three of them finally arrived at the cave where Melusine lived.
"Look, it's right there."
At this time, the three of them were standing on a high ground.
Lynn's eyesight is very good, and he can see the cave near the sea not far away at a glance.
"The Melusine and the female siren controlled by it are probably in that cave, but the problem is that we don't know the situation in the cave."
"It would be too risky if we go in like this."
Demon hunters are experts in dealing with monsters. Not only are they proficient in swordsmanship, but their mastery of monster habits and even terrain is also the key to successful hunting.
Orwin volunteered without thinking, "Then I'll go explore the road first."
Lynn hurriedly stopped the other party.
If you let the other party go in like this, what's the difference between letting him die?
It is better to avoid unnecessary sacrifices as much as possible.
'What method should we use to lure out the female siren?'
Lynn's eyes have always stayed in that bottomless cave.
The dark cave is like a giant beast that will devour any human who dares to go deep inside.
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in his mind.
"I have an idea, you guys wait for me here."
After leaving these words, Lynn left in a hurry.
About two hours later, Gerd and Orwin saw Lynn dragging a deer with all four legs firmly tied up.
"You want to use this deer to attract those female sirens?"
Gerd is also a demon hunter himself, and he quickly understood Lynn's intention.
Indeed.
Among the methods used by witchers to deal with monsters, there are many examples of using wild animals to lure monsters out.
If we could attract the female siren to fight in the open terrain outside, it would definitely be much better than fighting in an unfamiliar cave.
"Yes, and I still have this."
Lynn Wrist flip.
But there was another bottle of potion in his hand.
While he poured the potion into the struggling deer without any explanation, he explained to the other two people.
"This is my homemade food attractant, which can produce a fatal attraction to most carnivorous creatures. What's even better is that this food attractant can be combined with other magic potions without losing its original medicinal properties."
This special food attractant is actually School of the Viper's exclusive medicine. It is one of the formulas that Lynn learned after he clicked "Viper Poisoncraft" to the master level.
Just as he said to the two of them, no carnivorous creature can resist its temptation.
Therefore, Lynn took out the antidote before the special food attractant took effect and gave it to himself and others.
To prevent the three of them from getting tricked.
Then, he took out another bottle of magic potion.
In this bottle of potion, a liquid the color of midnight flows.
As before.
He poured the potion into the deer's mouth again.
The deer struggled again.
It's as futile as ever.
This is Superior Black Blood, which can make the user's blood full of poison.
Of course, ordinary people can't drink this stuff, it will make them burp.
A perfect poison.
