Chapter 699 – Chapter 689: Making Witcher [ First Watch ]
Dudian took Aisha and Poland back to the outer wall. Along the way, he saw a large number of undeads wandering in the streets. The whole city was full of signs of desolation. There were trembling survivors hiding in some houses, it seemed that they were praying for rescue. But from the situation on the streets, the army hadn’t begun to clean up. Or rather, the army had gone to another place.
Dudian guessed that the army was most likely protecting the retreat of the nobles.
It could be seen that the situation in the inner wall was not much different from the outer wall. The nobles occupied an absolute height while the life and death of the civilians were as cheap as grass and trees.
Dudian didn’t rescue the survivors. He didn’t have the slightest sympathy. The good ones were sheep and the evil ones were wolves. He had chosen the wolves and sheep. Moreover, he had expected this kind of phenomenon, however the reality was more cruel than he had imagined. However he was more willing to see such a situation. It would become a chess piece in his hand and pave the way for his revenge!
Dudian found an empty horse for Poland to ride. He was carrying the god’s marrow. He was holding the black mucus creature named ‘black prison’. He was running at full speed. There was a faint light in the sky when he arrived at the giant wall, dawn was coming.
This night was destined to be extremely long for the people of the inner wall.
“Are you from the outer wall?”Poland saw Dudian standing in front of the giant wall.
Dudian glanced at him: “Is there a problem?”
Poland’s face changed. He bowed his head but didn’t say anything. He was shocked. In his heart the outer wall had always been ruled as a barren area. Moreover they had limited supplies from the Monster Research Institute, it was already good enough to reach the level of senior hunter. But Dudian’s strength was not only not that of a senior hunter but also that of a pioneer. This was not something that could be done by the people of the outer wall!
He knew that he was involved in a huge conspiracy. It was very likely that Dudian had a deal with a big force in the inner wall.
Dudian didn’t pay attention to his thoughts. He flew up the giant wall and returned to the ground. He picked up the god’s marrow and flew back to the giant wall. He took him along the passage of the giant wall to the outer wall. An hour later.., he took Poland back to Mt. Utoto. At this moment the first ray of dawn shone from the edge of the giant wall. It fell on the square of the temple. It brought warmth to Dudian’s body.
“Master, you are back.”Neuss was waiting at the entrance of the temple. He was the first one to greet dudian.
Dudian nodded slightly and brought Poland into the temple.
Neuss handed a cup of hot tea to dudian: “Master, you have worked hard. Are You Hurt?”
“No.”Dudian took a sip of the hot tea to dispel the chill on his left hand. He looked at Poland: “How long will it take to make a Witcher?”
Poland saw the magnificent hall. Although he didn’t know anything about the outer wall but he knew that Dudian’s power in the outer wall was extraordinary, moreover he wasn’t a hidden force. This meant that Dudian’s power in the outer wall was monstrous. Moreover his power was comparable to that of the pioneers. It was estimated that the entire outer wall was in his hands.
He couldn’t Guess Dudian’s purpose. He pondered for a moment: “It will take at least a month.”
“A month?”Dudian frowned: “I can’t wait that long. I will give you half a month at most!”
Poland said: “It will take at least half a month. If my guess is right, you shouldn’t have the equipment to make a witcher. One month is very tight.”
“I’ll give you half a month.”Dudian coldly said: “You don’t have to worry about the equipment. Tell me what you need and I’ll send people to cooperate with you. If you can’t make it in half a month then there is no need for you to breathe.”
Poland saw Dudian’s overbearing attitude: “The process of making the device is very complicated. Unless you can get my former colleagues to help you, I won’t be able to do it in half a month.”
“I will personally help you. There is no need to talk about this.”Dudian waved his hand, “Write a list of the materials and equipment you need. I will get people to prepare it. Also, tell me the process of making it.”
Poland was angry. He thought that there was no use for you to help me! But since things had come to this point, he knew that it was useless to talk about it. He could only rely on Dudian, “To make a witcher, the owner of the witcher first needs to cut off half of the parasitic soul worms in the body. This is the key to the witcher. Only in this way can the witcher replace the mutation of the body. Moreover, only the owner of the witcher can use the witcher. If it falls into the hands of others, it is just an ordinary weapon.”
Dudian nodded slightly. He had learned some things from Aisha. Cutting off half of the parasitic soul worms was the most dangerous step in making a witcher. The parasitic soul worms would form magic marks after entering the body. Just like the human heart, it was the biggest weakness, cutting off half of the magic marks was equivalent to cutting off half of the heart. If one was not careful, they would lose their life. Therefore, most people would make a witcher before the magic marks entered the body.
This kind of condition could only be achieved by the Witcher family or the military bigwigs. Aisha’s witcher was made when she was very young. She cut off the parasitic soul worms in advance and only half of them entered the body.
Such a harsh condition was a huge threshold for many people who evolved into pioneers through their own luck. After all, the removal of magic marks was life-threatening. At worst, they would be crippled, at worst, they would die, not all pioneers dared to cut off magic marks to make witcher devices. Therefore, most pioneers chose to give up their own bodies and could not care about their image.
Most of the pioneers would be sent to guard the wilderness so as not to scare the people.
“The process of cutting off magic marks will be more dangerous if I do it alone.”Poland saw Dudian’s calm expression and thought that he wasn’t aware of the dangers, “The probability of death is at least 50% . 70% will result in disability. If you have the most advanced equipment in the institute and find two doctors then the chances of success will be much higher. At most there is only a 20% chance of failure.”
Dudian nodded slightly. The 20% chance was not low. Not everyone dared to take such a risk.
“Isn’t there another way?”Dudian looked at him.
Poland was slightly startled. His eyes flashed with a trace of surprise. He didn’t expect that Dudian knew so much. He hesitated for a moment, “Indeed, there is another way to replace it. It is to find the same kind of parasitic soul worm, cut off half of it to make a witcher, and use the other half as nutrients to fuse into the magic marks in the body. Then take a drop of magic mark blood, and it will be done, but…”
Dudian saw that he wasn’t lying. He nodded slightly. Aisha told him about this method. However, this method was rarely used. It was almost forgotten.
Generally, only those who had evolved to the limit would need a witcher. The financial resources and connections needed to make a witcher were enormous. Even for the Dragon family, only the core family members and people with outstanding qualifications could get a witcher, only then could they be nurtured by the clan and given a witcher device. Ordinary members were not qualified to apply for it at all. As for the core clansmen, most of them would apply to make a witcher device since they were young, so they did not need to extract the magic marks from their bodies.
Therefore, other than this kind of people, the others who did not have strong connections would apply to make a witcher device only after they had advanced to a pioneer and obtained rich financial resources.
As for ordinary people who became pioneers, it was almost destined that their magic marks were extraordinary. They were all extremely rare magic marks, or even legendary magic marks. It was already good enough to get one of these magic marks. It was even harder to find parasitic soul worms of the same kind, however, it did not exclude some people who were extremely lucky.
