Clinging to the Witcher world to become a god of martial arts
Chapter 38: The Testing Ground
Lorne felt a warm current flowing through his body.
The muscle tears and internal injuries caused by the strain on the internal organs are healing at an incredible speed.
I opened my eyes to find the light dim and the air somewhat stuffy.
"Brother Lorne is awake!" Mia's little face peeked out in front of Lorne.
With Mia's help, Lorne got up with some difficulty.
They were currently in a dimly lit little room, with Leodan lying beside them, the ice on his body having melted away.
Sodrion was holding up a golden orchid, with pale green magical runes floating on his arm.
The energy particles of the golden orchid were activated, forming a visible, constantly flowing stream of particles that surged into the bodies of Leodan and Lorne.
"This is the chieftain's house," Mia explained, worried that Lorne might not understand the situation.
"Grandpa Chief is using Sunflower Orchid to treat Dad and Brother Lorne's injuries."
"I understand, Your Highness the Little Elf." Lorne had many questions he wanted answered.
The origin of the blood curse on the Kenlar elves is quite different from Lady Elena's description.
After careful consideration, Lorne decided not to pry, as it was a secret of their race.
He then inquired about the turmoil in the elven settlement:
"Mr. Sodrion, why are there such large hordes of skeletons and death knights in the settlement?"
Instead of explaining immediately, Sodrion expressed his gratitude to Lorne: "Thanks to you this time."
Without Lorne's help, it couldn't have severed the connection with the undead creatures so quickly.
The Death Knight will hinder it, and the horde of skeletons below will harm its people.
"It's what I should do," Lorne said modestly.
Don't just say thank you, give me something in return...
After sending another stream of particles, Sodrion set the Sunflower Orchid aside and concealed the runes on his hand.
It no longer possessed the same majesty as when we first met it; its aged face bore a hint of weariness.
"Leodan will slowly awaken soon." After reassuring Mia, Sodrion answered Lorne's question:
"These undead creatures all originated from the testing grounds."
"Testing Grounds?" This was the first time Lorne had heard this name.
"Yes," Soderion explained.
"The test site is located in the core area of the resource zone. It was originally a place where a necromancer in the Black Tower researched necromancy, but he later abandoned it."
"The reason for the abandonment was that the immense amount of negative energy particles within the test site gave rise to self-awareness."
"You can freely control all the undead creatures within it."
"So Sodrion is so knowledgeable? He even knows this kind of information..." Lorne was amazed.
No wonder everyone says the depths of the resource zone are dangerous; I bet that Death Knight is everywhere in the testing grounds...
"And the reason they were transported here is..." Sodrion continued to explain:
"Because it's a random teleportation, my intention was to adjust the final landing point and control the area to the shallow part of the resource zone."
"That way, even if you're randomly teleported out, you won't encounter any major danger."
Before the explanation was even halfway done, Lorne had already guessed what would happen next.
In short, Sodrion, with good intentions, didn't want to encounter unsolvable problems after being randomly teleported out, so he chose to interfere with the final landing point, which led to an unexpected incident.
"But the worst thing about random teleportation is adjusting the final landing point." Just as Lorne had guessed, Sodrion felt a pang of regret.
"Who knew that bad luck would strike, and the final destination of the random teleportation would just happen to be the test field."
"Due to the intrusion of negative energy particles, the teleportation array malfunctioned, and a reverse channel was opened."
Lorne felt a chill run down his spine.
If Sodrion hadn't interfered with the random teleportation array, wouldn't he have been teleported into the testing grounds?
Thank goodness... thank goodness... he patted his chest in relief.
"You know what happened next," Sodrion said, pointing to the turmoil in the elven settlement. "The Death Knight was the first to come in."
"The horde of skeletons below was summoned by the lich, but I stopped it at the other end of the teleportation circle."
Lich? Lorne already pictured a figure holding a bone scepter and sitting on a skeletal throne.
Leodan woke up at just the right moment, though it's unclear whether he was woken up by noise.
Its memory was still stuck on the moment when Lorne took Mia up to the platform.
"Mia!" Leodan was terrified and hugged the little one tightly.
Mia was being hugged so tightly she could barely breathe. She poked her little head out and said, "Daddy, I'm okay."
"It's alright, it's alright..." Leodan kept repeating.
It noticed Lorne sitting next to it.
Clenching her fist and releasing Mia, she charged forward, yelling, "You despicable human!"
He was still upset that Lorne had brought Mia to the platform.
It stopped abruptly just before it reached Lorne's face.
It sized up Lorne.
Lorne was still shirtless, his muscles were exceptionally well-developed but not huge, possessing both strength and beauty.
It's the figure it envies.
"Leodan, stop!" Sodrion interrupted him. "This time, we owe it to Lorne."
"Yes, Daddy." Mia quickly ran to Leodan and explained what had happened after it was frozen.
Sodrion then took out a set of silk clothing and handed it to Lorne, as it wouldn't look right for him to be shirtless.
Lorne went outside to change his clothes.
This is a ceremonial robe with extremely intricate embroidery and silver thread inlaid on the cuffs.
Very luxurious.
These are clearly clothes worn by Soderion.
The material is very comfortable, but it looks a bit big on Lorne.
"Don't lose it again next time." After entering the room, Sodrion handed over a leather bag.
When Lorne opened it, he found the book "Elven Rune Literature" and five parchments inside.
"Mm." He nodded shyly.
They got carried away and tore off their clothes, making quite a scene... but they still lost and were almost killed instantly by the Death Knight.
This is incredibly embarrassing...
Lorne clenched his fists, eager to improve his strength.
After hearing Mia's explanation, Leodan came to Lorne and unusually apologized: "I was reckless."
"But don't think I'll appreciate you, human." Leodan's expression changed swiftly, his face contorted with rage.
"You brought Mia to such a dangerous place; I'll get my revenge sooner or later!"
Lorne ignored it and looked at Sodrion instead.
While I need to improve my martial arts skills, my most pressing need right now is to become a wizard apprentice.
Master magic and create more runes to enrich your abilities.
Relying solely on the Three-Fold Force fighting style is far too simplistic, leaving one utterly powerless against a bizarre enemy like the Death Knight.
"Mr. Sodrion, I wonder if your settlement has any spirit-enhancing potions? I desperately need them right now."
Having just helped them resolve the great turmoil, Lorne was confident that Sodrion wouldn't refuse his request.
It was beyond his expectations.
Sodrion looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"You don't want to?" Lorne sighed. Luckily, he was only going to give it a try anyway.
What happened next was even more unexpected.
Sodrion pointed to the little guy beside him: "Mia happens to know how to make these kinds of potions."
