Listening to the herald's voice, Emperor Emhyr at the bottom of the steps looked at the man sitting on the throne - and his daughter sitting next to him - and couldn't figure out how much he had gone through in these short ten years. , how did this guy change from a lost dog who lost his country to what he is today? At this time, the herald’s voice sounded again: "Before you are - the Lion King of Cintra, the Heir to the Ancient Blood, the Dragon Slayer, the Sword of the Dawn, the Gryphon Knight of the Lady of the Lake, the Monster Bane, the Mentor of the Order of Witchers, the Witcher Lifelong Counselor of the Brotherhood of Sorcerers, Archon of Novigrad, Sage of Oxenfurt Academy, Breaker of Slave Chains, Frostbreaker, Redeemer... - His Majesty Lann Lannister Riannon!" --- This is a translation of a Chinese Novel, with minor changes in some parts of the original story. I don't own the picture in the novel cover.

Chapter 2: The possibility of invincibility

The morning battle competition determined the winner. According to the rules, what follows naturally is the awarding of the champion and the accompanying celebration banquet. But neither the champion nor the runner-up can participate in the celebration covered in blood, sweat while wearing armor like an iron bucket. 

 

Fortunately, both Lann and the captain of the guard, Vitoni, were not seriously injured during the competition. Their wounds were treated, then they showered and changed their clothes to prepare for the banquet. In previous years, tournaments often had to postpone the celebration banquet for several days in order to heal the wounds, and even happy events might turn into funerals. 

 

Lann's injuries were simply treated on the spot, he stood in front of the full-length mirror and let the maids dress him. 

 

The heavy armor has long been removed, and the young man is bare-chested, allowing a pair of hands to apply various scented essential oils to his blond hair and body from time to time. 

 

The maids know their young master's preferences and the smell is not too strong. When Lann first came to this world, he couldn't help but sneeze every time the maid's hands stained with various spices came near him. 

 

Calculating the time carefully, it has been more than a year since Lann came to this strange yet familiar world. He was originally an ordinary college student on earth. But suddenly, due to an inexplicable transmigration, he was taken to a different world, and even his body changed. 

 

Fortunately, he did not come to this world alone. There was a system panel accompanying him to this world. 

 

Lann thought silently in his mind: 'Panel.' 

 

Immediately, translucent data was displayed in front of him. 

 

[Name: Lann Lannister

 

Sex: Male 

Race: Human 

Level: 11 

 

Talent: Elder Blood (Unawakened) 

Experience value: 100/1500 

Health: 210/210 

Mana: not enabled 

 

Inventory: Gorgeous black palace trousers, gorgeous black palace shoes. 

 

Skill column: Muscle memory (5/5), strength training (5/5). 

 

Follower slot: none (unavailable) 

 

Task: None] 

 

As for which world he had arrived at, Lann had already vaguely guessed when he learned that he was in a country called 'Cintra'; and when he found out that he had an aunt called Calanthe nicknamed 'Lioness' who is Queen of Cintra, his suspicions were confirmed. 

 

The original 'The Witcher' novel was later adapted into a fantasy action role-playing video game series called 'The Witcher', and also an American television series called 'The Witcher'. 

 

The protagonist of the original work is a Witcher who possesses powerful swordsmanship and a magical ability named 'Sign'. He makes a living by hunting down various monsters that threaten the safety of civilians on the mainland. Later, due to the pull of fate, he was involved in various major events, including the conspiracy of the mage, the change of royal power and politics, and even the destruction of the world. 

 

This is a world set in medieval Europe, where wars and epidemics have destroyed everything, not to mention that in today's fantasy version of the world, there are all kinds of monsters hunting humans everywhere! 

 

When Lann learned that he had come to a world with such a low life expectancy and survival rate, he sat up in shock as he was dying. 

 

Wait a minute, I seem to be the Queen's nephew? Although he is a distant relative of the Queen three generations away, he is still a member of the royal family. And since both of his parents are dead and he has no brothers, he will definitely inherit the title in the future? 

 

Lann lay back peacefully again. 

 

As for why he came to this world, Lann guessed that it was because he was clearing the map after clearing the 'Death March!' mode of 'The Witcher 3' before transmigrating. 

 

Regarding this world, in addition to playing the video games, Lann has also read the original novel and watched the adapted American television series. Although he can't remember the specific things, he can still clearly remember the general development of the world and the main characters. 

 

With this knowledge, coupled with his status as a noble and the quality of higher education in the 21st century, life in this world will not be too bad after all. Wait a minute... 

 

If I remember correctly, Cintra will be destroyed in the future! My own aunt, Queen Calanthe, would jump out of a tower window and die for her country after her defeat! 

 

In which year did it happen? In what year will Cintra be destroyed? Who can remember such a specific thing so clearly? 

 

As soon as Lann thought of this, he almost went crazy. Without saying a word, he began to test if there was any Goldfinger attached to him during his transmigration. Then his system panel appeared at that moment. 

 

[Name: Lann Lannister

 

Sex: Male 

Race: Human 

Level: 1 

 

Talent: Elder Blood (Unawakened) 

 

Experience value: 0/1000 

Health: 100/100 

Mana: not enabled 

 

Inventory: None 

 

Skill bar: None 

 

Follower slot: none (unavailable) 

 

Task: None] 

 

The panel is almost completely blank, and the only talent [Elder Blood] is still in a sealed state. In the original work, this is a huge force that can affect the direction of the world, but Lann vaguely remembers that the main Elder Blood gene only appeared in the female line while the male line could only be activators and latent. 

 

And even if he finds a way to awaken this power, you have to know how much time and energy it took to develop the bloodline holder in the original work. It was not even fully developed until the finale. He will definitely not be able to count on it in a short time. 

 

Cintra will be destroyed by then! Without the same luck as the protagonist, who would give him the opportunity to develop this late-stage ability? It would be nice not to be kidnapped by those who covet his bloodline and have his blood drawn or used as breeding pigs! 

 

Lann knew he needed to improve his abilities quickly. The remaining system functions gradually became clear to Lann through his exploration over the past year. 

 

This panel is based on the video game characters of 'The Witcher 3'. Many functions follow the original game, and many have been changed to be more realistic. 

 

The panel has been streamlined a lot, and the original values such as attack power and defense have been simplified, leaving only health, mana and experience. Each time he upgrades, his health will increase by 10 points. As his health increases, his physical fitness, including strength, stamina, etc., will also be strengthened to a certain extent. 

 

It is very reasonable. When the health value is increased, it is natural to need a body that matches such a high health value. 

 

Before level 10, each level requires 1,000 experience points, and after level 10, the amount of experience becomes 1,500 points. You can gain experience points by killing living creatures and completing tasks. Of course, just like in the game, the experience gained from killing monsters is pitiful, and the benefits from completing tasks are obviously higher. 

 

In addition to health points, you can get a skill point for each level you upgrade. The skills that can be upgraded are exactly the same as in the original work.
