Peter was about to cast a spell, but Roger didn't bother him.
He returned to the place where he fought before, and picked up the steel sword fragments scattered on the ground one by one.
Especially the tip of the sword, Roger always felt that something was different.
"The weapon is broken."
Roger spread his hands at Henrik.
Henrik's face was numb, and there was a hint of distress in his eyes.
"If it's bad, it's bad. What do you show me?"
"The mission is damaged, so don't the trade unions ignore it?"
"Hehe."
But Henrik changed the subject, "I'll help you find someone later to see if you can rebuild it, but your strength seems to have increased a lot recently."
"It's not easy for you to use this sword. You'd better start saving, so when recasting, you should add some metal or extraordinary materials. This may make the sword more powerful."
"Precious metals?"
Roger definitely can't get this thing, but Mansu has been preparing for so many years, and I don't know if she has something similar in her inventory.
In addition, Roger touched his body carefully. Before the witch died, the green flame almost burned everything.
However, a skull remained.
Roger had seen the hardness of this skull before, and more importantly, when he got the skull, the information on the bulletin board was updated at the same time.
[ Crescent Moon Witch's Skull: This is an extremely hard skull, on which is condensed the faint remnant soul of a witch who is about to enter the New Moon.
Fusible metals are used as alchemy materials to cast weapons. Because of their particularity, weapons may acquire special abilities and be strengthened in some aspects.
At the same time, it can also be turned in as a trophy.
Rating: Precious. ]
This skull is Roger's biggest gain this time. He talked to Henrik, but the latter didn't pay much attention to it. After all, Roger killed the witch alone. He still has the right to dispose of this little spoil. of.
Since this is the case, it is better to stay and improve your strength.
Gaining motivation, Roger began to search around the entire room, and soon he found a mechanism, opened it carefully, and a hidden door leading to the underground appeared.
Henrik was also interested for a moment, and Roger even felt that money was about to fall out of his eyes.
"Maybe there are precious materials secretly hidden by Mansu." He smiled and patted Roger on the shoulder.
"You're a quick learner, kid. Do you know what the most important ability of a witcher is?"
Without waiting for Roger's answer, he said to himself, "You need to have a pair of eyes to discover treasure!"
"Ha ha!"
After he finished speaking, he took the gun and walked down.
At this moment, Peter's voice suddenly came from the side, "There is no such creed in the Witcher Union."
Peter scowled.
"I have seen many witchers, and none is more shameless than him."
Roger nodded in agreement.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and there seemed to be a lot of tacit understanding for a while.
"For you."
As Peter spoke, he threw a palm-sized statue to Roger. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be a snake, but with some rough primitive state.
"The soul of that thing is sealed here by me. If you want to use it, just break this statue. It's just a little attention. Although I have made some protection, it is not as strong as it looks."
Roger accepted the statue with great joy.
"Thank you Peter, I owe you twice."
Peter just smiled, "No, you owe me two concerts."
"Hahaha!"
Suddenly, Henrik laughed like a maniac from below.
"Get rich, we really got rich!"
The two of Roger and Roger walked down the passage, and they could see that there were often people visiting here, so naturally there was no hidden mechanism.
The space below is not large, only 30 square meters at most, and there are rows of shelves on the surrounding walls, and the shelves are filled with various bottles and jars.
Of course, there are many spell-casting materials and various things used to perform mysterious rituals.
"Take this!"
Henrik throws two pieces of metal to Roger.
"Haiyan iron and wood steel, with these two things, you should be able to rebuild a steel sword, and the metal mixed with wood steel has one of the biggest benefits. That is, it cannot be recognized by modern security electronic equipment. This thing is not something from the earth, and I don't know where this woman got such a big piece."
"Roger, your luck is beyond words."
Henrik was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and then he threw another thing to Peter.
"This thing is perfect for you."
"Soul Gathering Chain!"
Peter's face also changed slightly. Although he didn't say anything, it could be seen that this thing had greatly improved him.
"Fortunately, the incident happened suddenly, and this woman is busy with the transformation ceremony. If she is given some time to make some arrangements, the three of us will have to bury here today."
"A prepared witch has terrifying strength."
Henrik looked at Roger.
"You must remember that."
Roger nodded. He knew that Henrik was afraid that because he killed Mansu, his confidence would inflate, which would lead to his death due to carelessness next time.
"The most important thing is not these!"
Henrik kicked open a box under his feet, the box opened, and a whole box of gold coins was exposed in front of the two of them.
"Gold!"
"Although the purity is unknown, even if it is only 1/3, it is still a huge sum of money!"
The corners of Henrik's mouth split from laughter, but this time Roger was happier than he was.
"Conservatively, the money to buy a house has been settled."
He's been inquiring about houses in Bordeaux recently, but even if it's the cheapest one, it's not something he can afford with the little money he got from these missions.
"Leave this matter to me. The three of us will share the money from the sale equally!"
"This time I'm going to sleep in the most luxurious place in Bordeaux for a week! The kind that stays in bed for 7 days!"
"Divide the gold coins equally between you two." Peter said suddenly.
He raised the bracelet, "This is enough for me."
Henrik's face changed, "This is not very good."
Then he glanced at Roger again, that look seemed to imply something.
"Hehe."
Roger knew that Peter was a super rich second generation, and this little money meant nothing to him.
But he is different. There are so many houses waiting for him to be bought, and he is really poor.
When the three returned to the top again, Amanda had already changed into her original clothes.
Henrik took the black witch robe, "This is the most precious thing here."
He glanced at Roger.
"You killed the person. It stands to reason that this thing should belong to you, but this dress is considered a token. If you take it, it will cause some disasters."
Roger also understood this truth.
The Voodoo Queen is involved, and if you return the black witch robe at this time, you should be able to get some support from the Voodoo Queen.
Although it may not affect the overall situation, it can at least ease the situation in Bordeaux.
"Come on, let's get out of here first."
By the time everyone came out of the swamp, it was already evening.
The body was still lying on the ground, surrounded by a large group of policemen, and when this happened, the police force in the entire Marsh Town was alarmed.
Seeing the crowd coming out of the woods, all the police officers drew their guns at the same time.
Henrik raised his hand and went forward to negotiate with the police officers in Marsh Town. He didn't know what he said, but the police officers in Marsh Town were not embarrassing them.
Henrik and Peter had to stay here to deal with the follow-up matters, so naturally they couldn't go back with Roger.
After parting, Roger took Amanda and drove to Bay Town.
"What happened today..."
The two spoke at the same time.
"Thank you for everything you have done for me."
Then Amanda seemed to think of something.
"Of course including that."
"That thing? Which thing?"
Roger was taken aback for a moment, but he immediately understood something when he saw the girl's slightly red face.
"Haha, nothing."
Roger said subconsciously: "This is what I should do."
"Well..."
He immediately realized the ambiguity in the words and helped shut his mouth.
The atmosphere in the car suddenly became a little ambiguous.
Amanda leaned back in her seat and changed the subject, "So...is this your little secret all along?"
She glanced at Roger, "Looking at the little tricks we played in the cave before, did you already burst into laughter in your heart?"
After thinking about it for a while, Roger recounted the incident to Amanda. Now Amanda has half a foot into the extraordinary world. Under such circumstances, there is no need to hide many things from her.
After hearing Roger's words, Amanda looked shocked, "Bob, Sherman..."
"Is the world we live in so complicated?"
Just then Roger's cell phone rang.
Andrine.
Roger had a headache, and Andrine must have found out that Amanda didn't go to school, so that's why she called.
He turned on his phone, only to find a series of missed calls on it.
He glanced at Amanda.
"What should we say?"
...
As night fell, Roger drove the car and parked slowly in the open space in front of Andrine's house.
Before he could open the car door, Andrine rushed up with tears all over her face.
She hugged Amanda and looked at her daughter carefully, "Where is the injury?"
Tears couldn't stop streaming down as she spoke.
It was not until a while later that her mood stabilized.
Looking at Roger who got off the car, Andrine also gave him a hug.
"Thank you child!"
"Losing Amanda, I really don't know how I'm going to face life in the future."
"This is the second time. You saved Amanda and this family at the same time."
"Actually I didn't do anything."
Roger comforts Andrine.
"I just found some abnormalities, followed all the way, and then notified the police."
"This is already amazing!"
Andrine said.
Betty and the others took Amanda away, but left behind a pile of books. Recently, Andrine had more time, and Amanda would go home for dinner at noon.
After waiting for a long time but not seeing her daughter, Andrine hurriedly called to inquire, but no one knew where Amanda had gone.
She was completely panicked at this moment, and she followed Amanda's usual route home to search, and finally found the books scattered in the ground.
Realizing that something had happened, Andrine expanded her search until a student told her she had seen Amanda get into a white pickup truck.
Roger has already communicated with Henrik. Such a big thing happened in Marsh Town, and many people died. There must be no way to simply resolve it.
So they decided to publicize the Prophet and others as a cult organization, and Betty was bewitched by them to hold Amanda hostage.
As for the truth.
Amanda didn't want to hide it from her mother.
But Henrik told her that what you have shown on your body is no longer something that can be explained clearly by ordinary ritual issues.
Because of these characteristics, even if you don't want to, you will definitely enter the extraordinary world.
Tell your loved ones to live in constant fear?
Amanda was silent.
Although she still hesitated and felt that she should be honest with her mother, on the other hand, she agreed with Henrik's opinion.
Henrik told Amanda that he had been a witcher for a long time and had seen too many similar things.
Confess or hide. It's a problem for everyone in it.
"There is no perfect answer to this. You can hide it first, and then make a decision after you really think it through."
Roger said at last.
Amanda thought for a while and agreed with Roger's opinion.
So there was this scene before.
After running around for a long time, both of them were a little tired, and Andrine had been in fear all day long.
After eating something hastily, everyone went upstairs to rest. Roger hid it well, not letting Andrine notice his injuries.
After fighting all day, Roger naturally didn't plan to continue practicing at night, but when he was about to go to sleep, there was a soft knock at the door.
The red-haired girl stood at the door pretty, "I'm a little... scared."
"Can you stay with me?"
After this incident, the relationship between the two has become much closer invisibly. Roger did not refuse and let the girl into his room.
Amanda seemed to be in high spirits, and she kept talking, talking about her family from her childhood.
Talking about the conflicts between her parents, talking about her father who was obsessed with mysterious things.
And...the bits and pieces since she and Betty met.
Roger didn't interrupt, just listened quietly.
Gradually, Amanda's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
Looking at the girl's fair face, Roger put a pillow on her, and then quietly exited the room.
There is ample time.
Roger went downstairs to the living room, lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.
The next morning, Amanda woke up earlier than ever before. She sat up and realized that this was not her room.
"This guy..."
When she pushed the door open, she happened to see Andrine who had just woken up. She panicked and was about to explain something, but she saw Andrine make a silent gesture at her.
Looking in the direction Andrine pointed, Roger was sleeping soundly on the sofa in the living room.
"I've asked you for a vacation. It's only a few days before the summer vacation. Take a good rest. You both have time, so maybe you can go out together."
The meaning of Andrine's expression is already very obvious.
She is a policeman, and she knows that similar things will leave indelible psychological trauma to the person involved, and what a mother can do is to let her children forget this unpleasant experience as soon as possible.
Amanda might be very happy if she didn't have to go to school in the past, but after what happened yesterday, she feels a little heavy at this moment.
In her eyes, the world has never been the same again.
