Chapter 227: Return to Wyzima and Henselt's Action

Of course, as the giant race that would play an important role in future plans, Wayne would certainly not let them be in a free-range state, nor would he trust them so much as to hand them over to Giant General Glas to manage on his own.

It was necessary to arrange for someone trustworthy and capable to participate.

And for this candidate, Wayne already had a decision in his heart, and that was the Wolf School witcher Berengar.

This old witcher had been staying at home in Wyzima for almost a year and a half, and it was time to come out and stretch his muscles. It just so happened that he could join the order and be specifically responsible for teaching apprentices with Vesemir, and by the way, let him serve as the village chief of the Giant Village.

This was a leisurely job, and he didn't need to go out on adventures or contact many people, which just happened to meet his demands.

Berengar had been wandering in the North for decades. Although his combat power was not very strong, his experience and knowledge were stronger than many human elders. He knew a little bit of all kinds of crafts, and being a village chief was more than enough.

As for the two dryad beauties, he also prepared to recall them to Kaer Morhen. Aigles and Marika both possessed abilities similar to druids. It just so happened that in his backpack, he still kept a large bag of super genetically modified corn seeds from the 2077 Cyberpunk world.

This stuff had very low requirements for the living environment, and the yield was amazing, with three harvests a year. Although the taste was very average for humans, using it as a staple food for giants, with their rough taste buds, perhaps it might still be delicious.

As long as they survived the first year, there would be a steady stream of food produced, and it could even play other roles.

Now that the two main tasks had been set, there were not many things worth exploring in the Witcher world for the time being, and he should also focus his time on the main tasks.

Perhaps only Epic-level treasure chests and experience rewards could improve his strength faster and make him stronger.

And the task of rebuilding the Witcher Order, even if it was his own idea, also met Vesemir's expectations and could let his witcher brothers live a good life, killing multiple birds with one stone.

What needed to be done was nothing more than increasing the number of witchers, recruiting witchers from other schools, recruiting order sorcerers, rebuilding the witcher academy, and recruiting more apprentices.

Anyway, it was this kind of thing. As long as it developed in this direction, the progress of the task could be increased, which was not too difficult.

And for the task of saving the elves, Wayne currently had no clue.

It was mainly because the North-South War had not broken out yet, and except for Kaedwen, the contradiction between humans and non-human races was not particularly sharp. There were even many non-human races that had lived in human cities for too long and were unwilling to leave their homes for a possibility in the future and go to live in the deep mountains and old forests like Dol Blathanna.

And although he himself could not be considered a good person, he was unwilling to deliberately provoke contradictions between humans and non-human races, causing many innocent non-human races to die under human butcher knives without any preparation.

At the current stage, the only way was to adopt a wide-net approach and accumulate little by little to complete the task.

Entering the castle hall, Triss had already finished visiting the entire castle and was currently sitting on a leather chair by the fireplace, reading a certain book, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, looking at it with great interest.

The old man Vesemir didn't know where he had gone, probably busy with his own affairs.

After seeing Wayne come in, the red-haired sorceress immediately showed a sweet smile.

After Wayne sat down beside her, she leaned her head on Wayne's shoulder and said happily: "My dear, I just went to your laboratory and took a look. Your experimental equipment is already quite old, products from hundreds of years ago."

"The experimental equipment we sorcerers use now has been updated for several generations, with higher precision and faster efficiency. If you need it, I will help you purchase a batch through special channels. Do you think that's okay?"

Wayne reached out to put his arm around Triss's slender waist, his somewhat rough palm reached into her clothes and gently groped on her flat lower abdomen, and said casually:

"You are a professional, you can make your own decisions about these small problems."

"We witchers haven't had sorcerers helping for hundreds of years. Everything is difficult at the beginning. You should think carefully about how to take over this work. Besides paying attention to keeping secrets, I have no other requirements for the time being."

Hearing the man's words of complete trust, Triss felt that the fatigue of preparing the large teleportation array these past few days had been reduced a lot, and her mood was even more pleasant.

Ever since Wayne confessed his secrets to her and she took the initiative to join the Witcher Order, the relationship between the two seemed to have taken a step further, no longer like in the past, although they were indeed very intimate and always like they were in hot love, there was always a layer of film that made her unable to see through this witcher.

And now, after understanding the man's abilities and ideals, many things had answers, and Triss's heart also had a lot more sense of security, no longer like in the past, always guessing randomly and feeling uneasy.

Wayne took a delicious cream puff cake from his space bracelet and placed it in Triss's hand. Watching the sorceress eat the cake in small bites, he said gently: "Optimizing the witcher transformation experiment is a major project. You need to read many notes preserved by our witchers, so don't rush."

"However, my dear, I have a problem now that I want you to help me solve first."

Triss first swallowed the puff cake in her mouth, a look of enjoyment appeared on her face, and then asked:

"What problem is it?"

Seeing the sorceress's expression like a little gluttonous cat, Wayne couldn't help but smile and said:

"You have also seen that the number of the giant race is very large. Although our magic crown can control them, this is not safe."

"I hope you can help me manufacture a batch of tracking devices that can be installed on every giant so that we can know their location."

"In this way, even if a few giants want to escape, we can find them based on their location and catch them."

Triss nodded upon hearing this, considered for more than ten seconds, and said: "Regarding this kind of device, other sorcerers have studied it before, and it is not difficult to manufacture. However, if you want to manufacture it in large quantities, it will still cost a considerable amount."

"If you want to make more than two hundred, it will cost at least ten thousand Orens."

Wayne nodded. It only cost forty or fifty Orens to monitor the whereabouts of one giant, which was already much cheaper than he expected.

He nodded to Triss, agreed to this plan, and then said: "Let's do it, my dear. Money is not a problem." "I will bring back a few helpers soon to share your work, but for these few days, please trouble yourself to monitor these giants and don't let them cause any trouble."

"Also, send me back to Toussaint first. Some of my friends are still there. After I finish these things, I will go to Wyzima first. At that time, I will let Keira contact you."

………………

Soon, with the help of Triss's portal, Wayne returned to Beauclair in an instant.

And this time, his main purpose was to take Syanna, Letho, and others back to the North.

These were talents he had managed to recruit with great difficulty, and they couldn't be left here wasting time; they had to be utilized well.

This fairy-tale kingdom of Toussaint had no more attraction to him for the time being. By the time he came next time, it would probably be a few years later.

Soon, he returned to the shop in Beauclair and announced this decision to Syanna, Letho, and others.

Syanna's expression was somewhat reluctant, but she quickly agreed.

Although she was reluctant to leave this home where she had lived for more than ten years, the young girl already understood her situation and her status, and at the same time, another kind of ambition rose in her heart.

Youth and longevity were things that many human kings wanted to pursue but couldn't. She even began to fantasize that when her sister and parents were old and withered, while she was still glamorous and maintained the appearance of a teenager or twenty-year-old, appearing in front of them, the reactions of these people would definitely be very interesting.

And Letho and others, under the temptation of some of Wayne's conditions, had long been unable to wait. They didn't have any hesitation and even urged Wayne to set off early.

As for Gaetan of the Cat School, Wayne arranged for him to be the acting boss of the tobacco shop on the surface, while secretly letting him look after this stronghold, collect information from the southern kingdoms, and become a dark stake buried in Toussaint.

As a reward for hiring him, this shop, which was already quite famous, and the mansion behind it would be used by him for free.

He could also get a considerable reward from the income of the tobacco shop every month, which was much more comfortable than the days he spent licking blood on the edge of a knife at the risk of death in the past.

And for this arrangement, Gaetan was obviously quite satisfied. It seemed that he had forgotten that he was coerced and had been conquered by Master Wayne's "money power," becoming a very obedient lackey.

The only pity was that he hadn't moved the experimental equipment in Professor Mousesack's underground ruins yet, mainly because he didn't have enough knowledge in this area. Now that the professor had died, if he accidentally damaged this already prepared experimental equipment and affected the secondary mutation experiment, it would be a huge loss.

Wayne prepared to wait until Triss had studied the materials on witcher transformation left by Alzur and had achieved something in this area before bringing her to deal with this laboratory together. That would be a safe solution.

After all, it was impossible for people in the order to run all the way to Toussaint every time they underwent secondary mutation.

After dealing with the affairs in Toussaint, Wayne and his party also began to return to the North.

Of course, unlike what Letho and others imagined, needing to spend a month or even longer on a long journey, Wayne unceremoniously contacted the elf sorceress Francesca.

He asked this powerful lady to open a long-distance portal for them, and the destination was Wayne's home in Wyzima.

Although it was said that using the most powerful elf sorceress in the world as a tool person was somewhat disrespectful.

But thinking about it from another perspective, wasn't this Wayne's trust in her? Being able to expose his relationship network in front of her was also proof that the relationship between the two had become more intimate.

And this time, Francesca's attitude was very good, and she didn't feel annoyed at all because Wayne asked her to help with such a small favor. She maintained a noble and elegant smile throughout, and her beautiful appearance and noble temperament stunned Letho and the other witchers and Syanna, the somewhat arrogant girl.

Not to brag, even Wayne, who had been baptized by various PS beauties in the information age, would be surprised by the beauty of the elf sorceress. It was normal for others to be stunned.

The efficiency of the portal was indeed very powerful. In just a few minutes, everyone came from the southern kingdom of Toussaint to Wyzima, the capital of the kingdom of Temeria.

Except for Wayne and Francesca, Letho and others and Syanna were all visiting this country for the first time.

However, after Wayne introduced his mansion to Letho and others and introduced Berengar to them.

Francesca reached out and pulled Wayne to the side. After the two arrived in the study, the elf sorceress told Wayne a piece of news.

That was, the kingdom of Kaedwen, which had suffered several losses in a row, was ready to take action.

"The incident where Dante killed Count Serrit in person at the banquet last time was too bad."

"Although other nobles were also discouraged by this and dared not take the lead in the confrontation with non-human races."

"But the Sorcerers Brotherhood has also sent two sorcerers to Kaedwen specifically to investigate the human mercenary Dante."

Francesca frowned slightly, looked into Wayne's eyes and said: "I also got a piece of news that that wild boar Henselt, in order to cooperate with the actions of these two sorcerers, is preparing to hold a public interrogation and execution of non-human prisoners near Ban Ard."

"But you and I both know that most of those prisoners are wronged. They are innocent and are just bait used to lure Dante out."

Biting her lower lip slightly, the sorceress said somewhat frustratedly: "Wayne, you decide for yourself how to handle this matter."

"No matter how you choose, I will support you."
