Gods, Ashes Descend

Chapter 45: Another Chapter of Velen

Irina taught Goto, while Levi and Ego squatted in the open space outside the house. Ego took out a scroll made by Irina and handed it to Levi.

"This is a simplified version of Restoration, Restoration, Force (radiates a short-range shockwave from the whole body). I don't think you're interested in learning it slowly. Just take the scroll and go to the campfire to configure it yourself."

Once you have enough stats, you can use it (single player). Then slowly turn the miracles into your own (group). Hmm~

Taking the scroll, I was surprised that even with a teacher, I still had to use a scroll. If I had known, I would have bought a magic scroll and become a mage back in the old maid's house, instead of being a faith warrior now.

However, the Faith Battle isn't bad either. At least it can both attack and withstand attacks, which is much better than a squishy mage. Most importantly, the old maid doesn't have many spells, so she still has to use a knife.

However, seeing that Ego seemed hesitant to speak, Li Wei suppressed a smile and asked.

"Speak, what is it?"

Ego scratched his head awkwardly and replied.

"Are you short of manpower? The Knights of Kalim are also very strong, and there are many priests in the White Church's holy land, but they are all tormented by the Dark Ring."

"Yes, just like other factions, we have a quota of one thousand people."

After saying that, he glanced at the house. The person inside was probably embarrassed by Ego. Li Wei was also very perceptive and simply brought it up himself.

"When you go back to your country and call for help, Irina can stay in my room with Goto. Goto will take good care of her."

I also believe that others will give me face, and no one will dare to go there and cause trouble.

As for me, I also plan to go out for a trip and see if I can do anything in other worlds.

Irina is staying at Levi's house, and Levi's presence at home would damage his reputation. More importantly, Levi plans to go to the Witcher world to see if he can get some rare items, and he also wants to know how the silly roe deer is doing after all this time.

"Thanks, Ashes."

"Let's get right to it," he replied, dusting himself off and standing up.

"Anyway, you're working for me, so there's no need to thank me. I'm leaving now. I'll probably be back in a month. I'll just bring those two inside to my room later."

Tell Goto that if he needs anything, he can ask Wood for help, or ask the tax collectors standing in front of the campfire for assistance; they're all my men, or even the patrol team.

After saying his goodbyes, Li Wei went to find Onion Bro for a drink and talk to him about the issue of getting people back to Catarina. A bunch of onions, the scene was kind of beautiful.

Onion Bro seems to have found a new hobby; he opened a tavern on the street, brewing a drinkable, non-toxic spirit using local liquor, and business is booming.

However, he only opened for business during the day; at night, he would carry his Storm Greatsword to kill monsters and earn Dark Essence.

When Li Wei returned home, completely drunk, that crazy woman, Sirius, was already waiting for him at his doorstep.

"Ashes, you're finally back. I've been waiting for you for so long."

Li Wei was also dumbfounded, and responded helplessly as he approached.

"It's not that I don't want to help you kill that traitor Sulyvahn and that man-eating pig Aldrich, but I really have no choice. Forget about Irithyll, I can't even go to the capital, so I can only go to Firelink Shrine."

Li Wei considered it for a moment and then answered.

"However, I can give you a suggestion. You can ask someone for help. That Anri and her companion are mortal enemies of Aldrich. I saw them on the street."

Black Knights roam the area outside and inside Farron Keep; your humanity might awaken them.

"And you can hire help here at Flower Soul, you don't necessarily have to keep an eye on me."

"No, Ashes. I'm introducing you to our leader, Yorshka, the daughter of the great god Gwyn."

Yes, it's the most powerful sacred artifact, Yorshka's Sacred Bell, but this girl is already in such a miserable state, why bother?

Li Wei then refused.

"No, don't even think about dragging me into your group of deranged people!!!"

After a tense struggle, Li Wei ran away.

He bought some pine resin from some people on the street, pulled out a thunder gun roll, and then bought a bunch of random stuff. Uncle Li Wei is a big shot now, he's got no shortage of good stuff.

........

Back at the Firelink Shrine, I touched the Fire Keeper's hand for a while (enhanced), and then said a few cheesy pickup lines to make her blush.

Li Wei reappeared in that haunted wooden house, but this time Li Wei was not the same Li Wei as before. Instead, he was a half-human, half-hanging Li Wei, who, despite being built up by stats, could still walk sideways like a crab.

When Li Wei encountered the Banshee of the Day again, his mouth split into a wide grin, and he pulled out his greatsword and took out a bag of human resin to touch it.

Physical immunization, huh? Now let's see if you can give me immunization again.

Amidst the screech of the banshee in the daytime, Li Wei immediately unleashed a Thunder Pot to the face, followed by his greatsword.

After being hit by two wooden boards, the more transparent female demon disappeared and never reappeared. Li Wei spat into the dry well.

But Levi had no interest in jumping in, diving down to get her skeleton out, and burning it. He was there for tourism, so Geralt could deal with the mess.

That's right, Li Wei is just here for tourism and adventure. He already has a stable income in the world, so why would he need to call in people to cause trouble in this sparsely populated world?

Even if Li Wei were inhuman and allowed those killers to come and kill anyone they saw, would a month here be as deadly as a week in the world corrupted by the Kremlin?

There are some big shots, even gods, in this world, but their numbers are incomparable.

If you really want to kill something, but you can't do it all by yourself, then you can call in more people to come and hack them to death.

Then Li Wei took off his armor, pulled out a folding bicycle, and started pedaling furiously toward Crow's Nest.

It wasn't that Li Wei didn't want to make a ghost fire chariot, but even if he could twist it with one hand, he couldn't take it back.

There's a limit to how big a motorcycle can fit a chrysanthemum.

My beloved little motorcycle is okay, but it's really not as fast as Li Wei pedaling his bicycle. It's just that it's easy to dry out the tires and ruin them.

But these things are everywhere on the road, so it doesn't really matter.

However, before they even reached Crow's Nest, Li Wei discovered at the village entrance by the roadside that the guards who had been standing watch at the gate were gone.

He randomly grabbed a villager in the village and asked him a question. He learned that Crow's Nest had been captured by the Bloody Baron, and the original Baron Veserad had fled with his whole family. As for where they went, that was beyond the knowledge of a farmer like him.

Li Wei knew where that place was—a small island, which would later become the Rat Tower.

He turned the car around, and with the tires smoking, sped off in that direction.

When Li Wei arrived at the village entrance by the river, the guards saw him and called out.

"Wait, you're Consultant Li? We all thought you were dead!"

Li Wei saw that the guards were still there, which meant that the unruly people had not yet rebelled, and there was still hope for this family.

So I calmed down, got out of the car, and put away the car that was almost totaled.

Seeing the two guards approaching, Li Wei greeted them and tried calling them by name.

"Are you Kri Minan?"

"Ha, looks like our advisor didn't hurt his head. But you've come back at the worst time. Baron Veserad is having a tough time right now; he's already two weeks behind on our salaries."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of that."
