Chapter 496 Geralt and Visenna

Sunk into the Lake of Origin?
Ishiki tilted his head to look at Edes inquiringly, but found that Edes also had a confused look on his face.

The banyan tree was too far away from them, let alone the secret of the Lake of Origin.

They know nothing about it.

However, Isaac McKinney in the holy form of brown bear, Zebi Ortega in the holy form of raven, and several archdruids of the Ring of Maina Drui, were stunned for a moment and then their faces changed drastically after hearing what was said.

“Teacher, why didn’t you stop it?!!!” Zebi Ort exclaimed.

The Grand Master was silent for a few seconds and shook his head: “I can’t stop it. That is the request of the origin. Mother Nature ordered me to make way.”

“But…but…”

“Since it is Mother Nature’s request, we should follow it,” Isaac McKinney patted Zebby Ort’s shoulder and interrupted her, “It must be the best choice for the origin, for nature, and for the world.”

Zebbi Ort was silent.

Isaac McKinney looked at the Grand Master: “Master, since he has fallen into the Lake of Origin, he cannot go back, and we cannot let him go back.”

He looked back at the gathered druids and continued:
“What are your plans?”

“Do you need us to send someone to look for him?”

“No need,” the Grand Master shook his head gently, “The northern continent is too big, and there are too few people in the Ring of Mainadrui. Although Kano is from another world, he is close to nature, and hiding in the woods and wilderness is instinctive.”

“Besides, he is a true master of nature. As long as he doesn’t want to be found, no one can find him.”

“Sending people to look for them is like looking for fleas in a haystack. Not only will it not help, it will also delay the children’s practice.”

The Grand Master paused and said with sincere emotion:

“I don’t know what kind of person Master Kano is in the other world.”

“If I were stranded in another world due to the intersection of the celestial spheres, I would never be recognized by the new origin so easily.”

As everyone listened to the Grand Master’s sigh, they also developed a genuine curiosity about the person from another world.

A character that even the Great Master admires can only be found in myths and epics.

In fact, this is because most of the visitors are druids who worship nature. They have the leisure to stay here and slowly sigh.

As for other professions, such as warlocks, whose stance is inclined towards chaos and difficult to judge, no matter how hard it is to find, the druid rings of the entire northern continent will come out in full force.

“Mentor, since Master Kano doesn’t need us to look for him, then why did you call us here?” Isaac McKinney asked confusedly.

The druids around had the same doubts.

Except for those druids traveling outside, all the druids of the Ring of Mainadrui came out in full force for this summons.

What happened in the Sacred Grove was certainly important, but it didn’t seem to require such a grand scene, and it had nothing to do with some young druids who hadn’t yet left their mark in the Sacred Grove.

It is entirely possible for the Ring of Mainadrui to be responsible for notifying external druids and apprentices.

The Grand Master raised his head and squinted at the clear path of sunlight shining through the dense umbrella canopy:

“Master Kano has left a mark in the origin. Mother Nature has revealed that new life will be born in this world.”

“It is a brand new life, but also a remnant of another world. It is the key to the enlightenment of a new era, a rope, the future, and hope…”

The druids looked at each other.

A new life… a promise of enlightenment… the future… hope…

Is this… the Grand Master’s prophecy?

What kind of life can actually affect the future?
“I don’t……”

He shook his head, lowered his head, and looked down at the druids of the Ring of Maynadruid with a solemn expression:

“Mother Nature needs you to find them, protect them, and help them integrate into the natural cycle.”

Isaac McKinney stepped forward and asked, “Is that the golden beast?”

“At least they are closely related and have similar shapes.” The Grand Master nodded. “The seeds have already sprouted, but they may have difficulty adapting to the mutated environment. This is when farmers like us are needed.”

“Where should we look?” asked Zebe Ort.

“In the cold mountains of the north, I saw deciduous maple, spruce, weeping birch, crowberry and fairy tree…”

The druids wrote down these characteristics one by one with serious expressions.

Then, under the arrangement of several great druids in charge of foreign affairs of the Ring of Maina Drui, they received their respective tasks one by one, bowed to the grand master, and then walked directly out of the Maina Forest.

Edes, Erwin, and Ehikiel were also among them.

Since Hainsiri’s task of patrolling the woods has not been completed yet, he will stay for the time being, but he will set off for Feilong Mountains in a week.

No one found excuses to refuse, because maintaining the sacred cycle of nature is the mission given to every druid by “Mother”. After all, the profession of druid itself is the protector chosen by nature.

What’s more, new natural spirits mean new shortcuts.

When a child enters the sacred forest in her holy form, Mother Nature will always show some tolerance and preferential treatment to her youngest child.

soon.

Before Holy Maina, there were only the Grand Master and a few great druids.

“Teacher, do we really not need to worry about Master Kano?” Zebi Ort asked, “Since the mark comes from him, he must know the new life’s true name, characteristics, habits, how to contact it, how to imitate it and transform it into a holy form…

The Grand Master thought for a few seconds and said, “Notify the Wizarding Association, as well as the kings and nobles of the countries in the northern continent, and ask them to pay attention and not to hurt him.”

“That’s it?” Zebi Ort wondered.

“That’s it.” The Grand Master nodded slightly. “It doesn’t matter whether we can find him or not. We can find a way to invite him to come.”

“What do you mean?” a great druid asked in confusion. How can we invite people if we can’t even find them?

Zebi Ort suddenly realized:

“No matter how vigilant we are, Master Kano will always meditate and appear in the Sacred Forest again. We can definitely invite him then.”

Just as they would not be too wary of a fellow traveler who adheres to the way of nature.

The druid from another world named Kano would probably trust them more.

What’s more, even if the Grand Master gave way because of the request of Mother Nature, it also revealed the goodwill of the Maina Elemental Ring to some extent.

If Kano is a grateful person, this would be a great favor, and he would probably be invited to join the other druid circles.

Yes.

The Ring of Mainadrui is not the only thing in the Sacred Grove.

The Mahakam and Kestra Mountains serve as the boundary. To the west of this boundary, most of Temeria and Redania, as well as some small countries such as Sidaris, are all within the coverage of the Holy Forest.

Other regions, such as Kaedwen and Skellige, have their own sanctuaries of nature.

Some are forests similar to the Sacred Forest, others are towering mountains, vast oceans, dark swamps…

In every sanctuary, the same origin is revealed inside, but the external manifestations are different, just like the lush green forest is nature, the surging ocean is nature, and the erupting volcano is also nature.

The origin is of course the same.

However, due to the differences in external situations, the druids’ understanding speed will be different in different sanctuaries. Some druids are more aware in the woods, some in the sea, and some in the swamps…

This is why after a druid has achieved success as an apprentice, he will often travel around the continent and wander between various druidic circles.

Only after achieving the status of a great druid will one choose a druidic circle to settle down and meditate continuously for a long time in the hope of gaining a deeper understanding of the origin.

of course.

There are no strong conflicts of interest between the various druid circles in the northern continent, as there are among secular chambers of commerce, nobles, and various industry organizations, and the relations between them are quite good.

However, as the archdruid of the Ring of Maina delui, he naturally hoped that the Ring of Maina delui could absorb Kano, a master who had touched the origin and even gone deep into the Lake of Origin.

This will not only increase the offerings from secular nobles, but also make it more convenient to exchange insights about the way of nature.

What’s more.

Not only ordinary druids are curious about the golden beast, but archdruids like them are also interested in the nature spirits chosen by Mother Nature.

Perhaps they can gain more insights from the new spirits of nature.

And of course, the ultimate truth of nature is easier to comprehend in its condensed holy form.

Therefore, no druid present wanted to give up the master named Kano to his brothers and sisters from other druid circles.

Druids who worship nature also have selfish motives.

“That’s right.” The Grand Master nodded with satisfaction. “Druids’ perception is natural and instinctive. As long as Kano doesn’t leave the coverage of the Holy Forest, there will definitely be a chance for us to meet again.”

“Pay more attention when you meditate these days.”

“Yes, Grand Master.” The archdruids nodded in agreement.

The Grand Master smiled kindly and stroked his beard.

It was rare for the great druids to wake up from years of meditation. Now that the matter was settled, they had no intention of leaving immediately and began to exchange their years of experience in practice.

Of course, this kind of communication is very brief, because the truth of nature is actually in the sacred forest, and there is no need for communication.
After the brief exchange, more of the conversation was about reminiscing about the past, complaining about the difficult road ahead, and speculation about the druid from another world named Kano.

As the master of the Ring of Mainadrui, the Grand Master would answer a sentence or two from time to time, and also complain cheerfully.

From a distance, apart from the canes with various animal skulls on them, they looked no different from the ordinary old people in a village chatting together.

But after a while, the Grand Master glanced at the several great druids in front of him and suddenly asked:

“Where’s Visenna?”

“Why don’t I see her here?”
–
Temple of Meritelli.

Just as the druid of the Ring of Mainadrui was thinking about the “accidental encounter” with Kano in the Holy Forest, “Kano” who was sitting cross-legged on the bed opened his eyes helplessly and sighed.

“No…” He shook his head helplessly, “The meditation of a druid seems to be completely different from that of a demon hunter.”

Of course Ailin had heard of druids, although they did not have many roles in the original novels and games and were nowhere near as important as warlocks.

But after traveling through time, when he was still in Kaer Morhen and had not yet completed the Trial in the Mountain, he learned about this profession from the books in the library.

After reading “Howl: The Language of the Wild”, I also looked up some documents and information in the Temple of Meliteli and Kaer Morhen.

Not to mention how deep my understanding of Druidry is, at least I have some understanding of some simple concepts, such as the practice of meditation and communicating in the natural sanctuary.

he guessed.

The forest that was entered using the Deer-Headed Spirit’s element was most likely a natural sanctuary.

However, he had just tried various methods, from meditation, the language of the wild to the language of the wild combined with meditation. Mother Nature did respond to him in the temple of Meliteli, but he could not enter the woods again.

I guess druids have their own unique way of meditation.

“Let’s put it aside for now,” Ailin shook his head. “Wait until we meet a druid and see if we can ask them for advice.”

Fortunately, druids are different from warlocks. Druids, who wish to transform every human being into guardians of the environment, will most likely not be on guard against the meditation method of communicating with the nature sanctuary like warlocks are on guard against the mental meditation technique.

otherwise.

I don’t know when I will be able to enter that woodland again.

After all, having offended so many forces, he really couldn’t afford to offend the druids again by stealing their cultivation methods.

The Wolf School has not yet grown up and it really can’t hold on.

But then again…

“The Druid Ring corresponding to that sanctuary should be around Temeria, right?”

Ailin stroked his chin and thought:

“Temeria…Temeria…”

“The mother of ‘White Wolf’ Geralt is a druid from Temeria. The druid’s ring seems to be called the Ring of Mainadrui…”

“Maina,” he recalled in his mind, “It should be a fortress near Maribor on the southern border of Temeria…”

“Those animals in the sacred forest, and that ‘demigod’ reindeer, could they be the druids of the Ring of Mainadrui?”

As soon as this thought came into his mind, Ailin denied it.

Because he remembered that Geralt’s mother was the owner of the Ring of Mainadrui, and the reindeer had big horns and a strong body, clearly a stag.

But let’s do the math…

“Geralt should have been born in recent years, right?” Alyn thought.

Before he traveled through time, Geralt’s date of birth was not actually elaborated on in detail, and there were huge differences between the calculations in the original book, the game, and the American TV series.

The American TV series even calculated that it was 1160 years old, which is of course impossible. After all, Arryn had never seen a white-haired witcher in his twenties in Kaelmor.

The original book seems to be around 1210 or so, but according to the plot, Geralt was adopted by Vesemir before the Wolf School fell into decline, so this year doesn’t seem right.

After all, if it weren’t for him, the Wolf School would have been attacked by the mob either this year or next year.

therefore.

According to the plot, it seems that Geralt’s mother sent him to Kaer Morhen in the last two years.

To be honest, he was quite looking forward to meeting the protagonist of the original novel.

Not only because of those epic legends, but also because Geralt is said to have the gift of magic.

Of course, there are many debates about this, but it is inevitable that Geralt has an extraordinary talent as a demon hunter.

Also.

After the Wolf School accepts Geralt, it can also connect with the Druid Circle.

“I don’t know if the appearance of a butterfly like me will blow away the protagonist of the original novel…” Ailin sighed and was about to get up.

Just then.

“Dong Dong Dong~”

There was a knock on the door of Ailin’s room.
