Chapter 215: Syanna's Ambition

Early the next morning, Wayne woke up from his sleep, his fingers subconsciously pinching, and a mass of warmth was grasped in his hand, feeling it carefully.

He turned his head and looked, finding Syanna with tears in the corners of her eyes, eyes closed, her white body curled into a ball, not yet awakened from her sleep.

It must be said that the effect of the healing potion is quite good. In last night's training, Wayne also discovered other wonderful uses of this kind of potion. If it weren't for it, an ordinary human like Syanna would not be able to bear the strong body of a top witcher at all.

Later, his healing potion might become a must-have item when looking for happiness.

However, the genes of this former Duke's daughter are also quite excellent. Not only is she beautiful, healthy, but her figure and physical strength are also quite outstanding.

Thanks to the rich nutrition since childhood and the cultivation of palace etiquette, she surpasses many ordinary girls in temperament. This is the source of the so-called noble temperament.

Looking at Syanna who was still in her sleep, Wayne reached out and grasped another one, pinching it teasingly. After the girl woke up from her sleep due to some stinging pain, he brought a smile to his mouth, reached out and stroked the girl's black, soft long hair, and said in a slightly domineering tone: "Time to get up, my Syanna."

"Crawl over, um, yes!."

"Time for morning exercise."

After a morning exercise that made him feel comfortable, in order to reward the girl's obedience last night, Wayne personally cooked a sumptuous breakfast and took out some cakes and candies specially used to deceive little girls from the space bracelet to treat her.

During the two days of rushing, because of the malicious torture of those knights, Syanna had almost not eaten or drunk anything. Last night's training also consumed a lot of physical strength. Watching her pick up the delicious cake with elegant noble etiquette and gobble it up, Wayne laughed somewhat uncontrollably.

He picked up a cup of cherry honey wine and drank it in one gulp. When the girl looked at him with blue eyes nervously because of his laughter,

Wayne said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, my Syanna, relax a bit, I am not a harsh master."

"After getting along for a long time in the future, you will find that I am a generous master."

"Perhaps, as an ordinary person, the identity of a Duke's daughter can indeed make many commoners look up to, and it can be called noble, but becoming my slave, you are no longer a mortal, you can obtain many precious things that royal nobles cannot get."

Seeing Syanna show some puzzled eyes, Wayne used a seductive tone to add: "I am a long-lived species, possessing thousands of years of life. I won't let my slaves wither and age so quickly. Like you, a beautiful beauty, if it only maintains for twenty years and then withers and ages, that is a wasteful behavior."

"I have many methods that can make you live for hundreds, or even thousands of years. When your hometown, the Toussaint Kingdom, no longer exists, you will still be as youthful and beautiful as you are now."

"By that time, you will find out what a lucky thing it is to be my slave."

"Of course, the premise is that you can get my favor. Otherwise, I won't spend extra thoughts on you. I have many choices, but you only have one choice. Do you understand?"

Longevity! Eternal youth! That is one of the greatest pursuits of all humans.

After listening to Wayne's temptation, the fear hidden deep in Syanna's eyes dissipated a lot, replaced by a longing for eternal youth.

She adapted very quickly. Although there was still doubt in her heart, she couldn't see any resistance on her face. She used a submissive attitude and said to Wayne:

"I understand, Master. I will definitely try my best to satisfy your requirements and will not let you down."

Wayne was very satisfied with the girl's attitude, although he knew very well in his heart that this girl's heart was definitely not as submissive as it appeared.

But it's enough. He is not a simple Higher Vampire Dettlaff, who would be deceived to death by Syanna's simple tricks.

The time in the future is still long. As long as he firmly grasps her weaknesses, he still has a lot of time to train this little girl.

Wayne tasted the fine wine, pondered for a few seconds, took out a box containing a sapphire necklace from the space bracelet, pushed it in front of Syanna, and said: "This is a gift I give you, Syanna."

"After wearing it, your appearance will be disguised by magic, and no one will recognize you again. And I will give you a test."

"Tobacco merchant Joel is my disguised identity in Beauclair. I will soon open a tobacco shop in the city."

"You will act as my agent, manage that shop, and sell those tobaccos for me."

"I don't care how much money you can earn, but this is a test of your ability. If you are just a beautiful woman like a vase, then for me, there is no great value."

"But if you can show your value and let me see your ability, I will also value you more. You should understand what I mean."

This is a magic necklace obtained from Francesca. Similar disguise props, Wayne still has several in his space bracelet. Compared with those lethal magic props, these props that can disguise identity are both easy to use and cheap, and not easy to be dismantled, which is quite in line with his heart.

Listening to Wayne's light narration, a sense of crisis rose in Syanna's heart. Although she was very confident in her figure and appearance, the girl who had read various noble stories since childhood also knew very well that a woman with only beauty would only become a sad cargo, an ornamental item, without any freedom and rights, nor would she get the respect of men.

Only by showing her value can she get others to value her. This truth is very practical no matter where it is placed.

The girl reached out and took the sapphire necklace and put it on her slender neck very obediently.

With a flash of magic light, her appearance changed. Although she was still quite beautiful, compared to the past, she no longer had the noble temperament of the past and became more ordinary. No one could recognize her identity through this face anymore.

However, compared to the confusion and helplessness of yesterday, a new hope rose in Syanna's heart again, and a flame called ambition burned in those blue eyes.

………………

Two days later, Wayne bought a shop in Beauclair city. The location was relatively remote, but the area was very large. It could not only be used as a shop but also as a residence, which was quite convenient.

Soon, after simple cleaning, without exquisite decoration, but following the original shop, Wayne's Pipe-weed shop officially opened.

Cat School witcher Gaetan also got a magic glasses used for disguise, covering his witcher vertical pupils, acting as a bodyguard, maintaining order in the shop.

And the signboard girl Syanna also officially appeared in the shop as Wayne's agent, selling Pipe-weed.

Although she was just a noble girl with no social experience in the past, she had received higher education after all, and her own vision exceeded that of most commoners. After adapting to her role in a stumbling way for a few days, she also quickly entered her role and began to help Wayne, this hands-off shopkeeper, sell Pipe-weed. Thanks to Wayne's promotion during this period, this high-end tobacco from another world was not worried about sales at all. If it weren't for Wayne adopting a hunger marketing method, limiting supply to his clients, maybe his Pipe-weed would have been bought by other merchants at a high price.

And Wayne's purpose in organizing this tobacco shop was not just to sell Pipe-weed. He also gave Syanna another task, which was to acquire a large amount of Gwent cards.

It is strange to say that the card game of Gwent, which has gradually become popular in the Northern Kingdoms, does not have specialized shops responsible for selling these cards. Most people adopt a private transaction method, or use the winning and losing of playing cards to exchange these cards.

And in the Middle Ages where printing technology and manufacturing technology are relatively backward, these exquisite cards are all made by hand. Even if it is the same kind of card, as long as you look carefully, there are subtle differences.

This production method, besides making the output of Gwent cards quite scarce, also added a lot of collection value to these exquisite cards. Especially those exquisite rare cards, according to their rarity, each card can even be sold for several Crowns or dozens of Crowns.

All Gwent players know that this game comes from the Dwarves of Mahakam and is a game they invented, but no one knows the true origin of these cards, or where more cards can be purchased.

But unlike others, as an important part of improving his strength, Wayne values this game more than anyone else.

He also saw the potential of this game. Whether as a profitable business, a means of social interaction, or an important bargaining chip to improve his strength, he would join the ranks of promoting Gwent.

Perhaps, before he becomes the most powerful witcher in the world, he will first become the most famous Gwent King in the world.

And after arranging the affairs in the shop, Wayne also began his journey to find the underwater ruins of the Valley of Nine.

However, unlike the original work, Wayne did not have the letter provided by Triss at this time, nor did he have specific intelligence about Dr. Thomas Moreau. The only thing he knew was that the underwater ruins were in the Valley of Nine.

But regarding this point, Wayne is not worried. Unlike Geralt, Wayne old man is a knight of the Lady of the Lake, a knight in every sense.

And Toussaint, to some extent, can also be considered the territory of the Lady of the Lake, the birthplace of the faith of the Five Virtues of Chivalry. For things like not knowing intelligence, he can go find the beautiful and holy Lady of the Lake, Lady Lilith, and inquire about it.

The only trouble is that every time he visits the Lady of the Lake, the time consumed is too much.

Wayne set off in the morning and didn't end the visit until the afternoon of the next day. Although the process was both comfortable and happy, and could increase the proficiency of the Divine Blessing skill, it was indeed too time-consuming.

However, this time, he didn't just whored the goddess's beautiful body and intelligence for nothing. Unexpectedly, the goddess also gave him a task, a Grandmaster-level task.

Ding! Task triggered, 【Eliminate the Evil Thing in the Ruins】, Grandmaster-level, accept?

Facing a Grandmaster-level task, and a task entrusted by the Lady Lilith goddess who is worthy of respect, Wayne of course would not refuse.

The target of this task is an evil god sealed in a certain underground ruin in the wilderness west of Beauclair.

The era of this evil god is quite ancient. Neither the name nor the origin can be examined. The ability is similar to a powerful evil spirit.

However, according to the intelligence of the Lady of the Lake, the seal of this evil god is about to expire. Although after being sealed for thousands of years, the power of this evil god is no longer what it used to be, once it breaks free and returns to the human world, it can absorb various negative emotions in the world and quickly restore its strength, causing disaster to one side.

The best way is to eliminate it before its seal is lifted.

Although this is also a way to treat the symptoms but not the root cause, even if the evil god leaking from the seal is eliminated, it will be resurrected again after a few thousand years, but it is the best way to dispose of the evil power in the world.

However, this task is not a very urgent task. The evil god has been sealed for thousands of years. Although the seal has been damaged now and has begun to leak a little bit, it doesn't matter if it waits for another month or a few months.

Wayne is prepared to wait until the Valley of Nine trip is over, then invite a few other witchers, and bring a few sorcerers, before going to deal with that evil god.

Anyway, these are all tool people that Wayne has already won over. Not using them is a waste, and it can reduce accidents and lower risks.

And as a god proficient in various spells, blessings, and prophecies, and the ruins of the Valley of Nine are underwater, the intelligence of the Lady of the Lake is very accurate. Soon, she predicted the location of the ruins and told Wayne.

However, not only that, through the prophecy spell, the goddess also told Wayne one thing.

That is, the person he is looking for is now buried in the cemetery outside Beauclair.

One can obtain some intelligence from that person's grave, which will make his exploration journey much easier.

Alright, after listening to this prophecy from the goddess, Wayne patted his head somewhat annoyedly. The goddess's prophecy is indeed very useful, reminding him of a detail he had forgotten.

That is, Thomas Moreau's grave is in the Beauclair cemetery. Although in the game, the grave had been stolen by tomb robbers, but now it is twenty years ago, the professor's grave should be safe and sound.

Sure enough, several years have passed since the previous life, and many memories in the game have become blurred. Many details, he cannot remember clearly.

And because of the difference in the timeline, the memories of the past are not as safe as predicting the future. This is a matter he must pay attention to in the future.

Since he obtained this intelligence, for the sake of safety, Wayne didn't go directly to the Valley of Nine, but first returned to the Beauclair cemetery, where he found Moreau's grave.

Although a bit sorry, he still took advantage of the night to dig open the professor's coffin and took away Moreau's notebook from his corpse, which had turned into dry bones.

This notebook not only recorded some of the professor's last words in detail, the location of the Valley of Nine laboratory, and some traps and details when building the laboratory, but also some of his repentance for his past behavior, and his guilt for his son and wife.

It must

Although his original goal had failed, he had paved a new path for the witchers who would come after him.

Once everything was prepared, Wayne did not linger; he immediately piloted the magic flying carpet again, flew to the Nine Valleys, and began his journey of ruin exploration.
