Lann sighed inwardly.
Yes, before the Massacre of Cintra, no one thought that Cintra would be defeated so miserably. In the end, it ended up being destroyed, and all the country's land was ceded to Nilfgaard, became a vassal of Nilfgaard. Calanthe didn't expect it, the mages didn't expect it, and the entire Northern Territory didn't expect it.
Mousesack thanked Triss for the information: "Anyway, thanks for bringing us this news, Triss."
“This is nothing.” Triss smiled cheerfully. "So, Lann, can you take me to your royal treasury now?"
“Of course.” Lann replied.
At night, after seeing Triss off, Lann absorbed the statue's magical power.
[Ability Point +1]
The extra ability points were naturally added to [Precise Blows].
[Precise Blows]: Increases chance of landing a fast attack critical hit by 10% and fast attack critical hit damage by 75%. Adrenaline Point gain: +5% (5/5)
[Precise Blows] Reaches the full level, and the physical strength is once again enhanced.
At the same time, after investing a full 20 ability points in [Combat] abilities, Lann will be able to activate third-tier skills after the next upgrade or acquisition of ability points. At that time, Lann's combat strength would be incomparable.
Lann wondered if there is any Source of magic in Tomas Moreau's laboratory, in addition to the results of the research on the witcher's secondary mutation.
Lann took a deep breath, found the Druid, and said: "Uncle Mousesack, I think I'm ready. I'm ready to go to Toussaint!"
...
This time Lann still assembled two small groups of soldiers as an exploration team.
Because the target is Toussaint, it is a cross-border exploration, and he is leading fully armed soldiers and even knights. Carrying too many people would have a negative impact on the kingdoms he would have to pass through.
Before leaving, Lann obtained a special document from Queen Calanthe. The Queen asked Lann to visit the person in charge of Toussaint first after arriving at his destination. Even if the other party did not support Lann's actions, at least he would not stop him after going through the formalities.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain. On this continent where military development was so unbalanced, apart from military powers like Nilfgaard and Cintra that could deploy tens of thousands of soldiers. Most countries were weak in weaponry, some did not even have an organized army, with villager fights being their highest level.
For example, Toussaint has no organized army at all. Border and road maintenance relies solely on wandering knights. And the only considerable military force was the royal guard in the capital.
In the future, this place was almost massacred by a high-level vampire and his minions; The kingdom's survival depended on Geralt's efforts to stop them.
The two elite detachments led by Lann are in fact large-scale armed gangs going to Toussaint. As long as they do not touch the royal capital, it is even possible to attack any city and conquer it.
At this moment, Mousesack looked at the configuration of the two detachments led by Lann in amazement. They were literally armed to the teeth.
Not only were they prepared to face beings such as Drowners, living statues, and golems, but they also carried a variety of specialized weapons to deal with specific situations. Each carried an alchemical backpack filled with Grapeshot Bombs, Dragon's Dream Bombs, and Dancing Star Bombs.
Additionally, Lann found a small amount of high-quality Optima mater and Quicksilver solution in the royal treasury, allowing Geralt to craft some Dimeritium Bombs and Moon Dust Bombs.
[Dimeritium Bomb]: Releases a cloud of Dimeritium slivers that block magic and monsters' magic abilities. After the mist disappears, the blocking effect remains briefly.
[Moon Dust Bomb]: Upon shattering, it releases a mist containing silver shavings. The silvery mist nullifies the invisibility advantages had by some creatures, as well as preventing shapeshifters from changing form.
Geralt expressed strong dissatisfaction with this, thinking it was too wasteful. If the materials are not used in time after being made into a bomb, the bomb's power will gradually decrease over time until it becomes a dumb bomb.
Lann responded: "Better safe than sorry."
However, due to a shortage of high-quality Optima mater and Quicksilver solution, and Geralt's strong opposition, Lann ultimately did not use all the materials. Only he and Geralt would carry three bombs of Dimeritium and Moon Dust; ordinary soldiers would not be equipped with them.
“How is it? Uncle Mousesack?”
The Druid nodded, and it could be seen that Lann was indeed well prepared. And with Geralt by his side, he felt relieved.
Finally, Mousesack, as an elder, gave some uneasy warnings and opened the portal.
Lann led Geralt and the soldiers towards Toussaint, disappearing before Mousesack's eyes in the blink of an eye.
Watching the group of people leave, Mousesack temporarily suppressed his worries. Today he has to go to give lessons to Ciri.
Coming to the room used as a classroom, Ciri was learning needlework from her Mammy, which was a required course for ladies. But for Ciri, this is rare.
“Little princess, have you finally decided to become a lady? It’s rare to see you learning needlework.”
Mammy bowed to Mousesack and stepped back.
Ciri looked depressed and said to Mousesack:
"I'm telling you, but don't tell my grandmother. I heard that the Archgriffin is born from fire and is not afraid of flames or strong acid. I want to use its fur to make a cape for Lann."
Mousesack was surprised and said: "But I have the fur of the Archgriffin."
With a melancholic tone, Ciri responded: "I was going to beg you to give it to me."
Mousesack nodded: "Okay, I'll give it to you once you pass your sewing lessons. I'll also have to find a good enough needle for you. Could you make me a gryphon skin cape later?"
Ciri shook his head and said: "No, I heard House tell me that the Archgriffin and the griffin are partners, so I plan to keep the griffin to make a cloak for myself."
Mousesack was stunned: "What about me?"
Ciri said regretfully: "I will act coquettishly for you and make you happy. Then I will sew you a new suit of clothes using other skins."
Mousesack was speechless, then patted Ciri's head: "Okay, then I will wait for your gift. Get some rest, it seems that learning how to sew is taking a lot for you."
The druid pinched Ciri's nose, finding the girl's worried expression amusing.
Ciri shook her head and said: "I've almost learned it. I'm in a bad mood for other reasons."
After saying this, Ciri hesitated for a moment, as if he was hesitating or trying to organize his words.
"I... I had a nightmare last night. I've been having nightmares lately."
