The Divine Hunter Chapter 7: The three secret techniques of the Griffin Sect

The bone-chilling night wind blew again.

The stars further disappeared into the night, Draco, Hunter, and the brightest night-eye stars all disappeared.

"Man, I'm sorry to take you a little longer." Roy noticed that his companion began to look back at Igesena's room frequently. "As far as I know, among the six schools, the Griffin school is the most powerful with the seal. Proficient, in some aspects it is not inferior to the spells released by warlocks."

"I came here this time to ask for advice on the secrets of the Griffin Sect's seal."

……

"You are exaggerating. Each school has different specialization directions... Since its establishment, the Griffin School has focused more on the study of seals than alchemy and swordsmanship, so it has a slight advantage," Cohen said modestly. As he spoke, his face was sparse and normal, with no hint of arrogance or showoff.

But Roy doesn't think so. The four elements, that is, chaotic energy, reveal the essence of this world. The Griffin sect, which specializes in seals, has a higher starting point than other schools and has better development prospects. for vastness.

"The teacher also told me that there is no need to hide the most basic knowledge. I am happy to give you a brief introduction - the difference between the Griffin School's seal and other schools mainly lies in the strengthening of three secret methods -" Cohen said Roy's ears pricked up as he talked.

"Mutation, duality, and the blessing of 'roar', I call it flapping wings."

The three-color pupils looked at Roy.

The latter was thoughtful.

"The first secret method - double seal..." Cohen said, "It is a two-handed spell-casting technique that the Griffin sect has spent many years researching. I am not talking about casting Alder with the left hand and Quen with the right hand. situation."

In the Brotherhood, Reso, Seret, Vesemir, and Geralt master this move, but there is always a sequence, which is equivalent to casting sigils continuously.

He has tried before, but his seal attainment is only level 3 and his skills are lacking. The speed of drawing the seal with his left hand is normal and his movements are pretty standard.

When cast with the right hand, it will be obviously one beat slower.

"Double seal requires both hands to cast a seal together... The mana consumption increases sharply, and the power of the seal can be more than doubled."

Suddenly, Cohen's two arms swung one after another in mid-air, and his fingers made dazzling and complex gestures.

The speed is too fast, like petals blooming suddenly.

The moonlight shone, and a blood-red talisman was revealed in the center of the 'stamen'.

The badge between the witcher's neck struggled violently.

"Pfft——"

The cone-shaped fire snake stretched across the sky, and its red light broke through the night, illuminating Cohen's stone-cold face.

The fire snake jumped out a few meters away and detected a raised snow pack five meters away.

In an instant, it turned into snow.

Keen withdrew his gesture, the seal ended, and the flame suddenly went out.

A horizontal smoke column appeared between the dark sky and the white snow.

As for Roy, who was in the back, his skin burned slightly - the temperature of the double Igni was not inferior to that of the mutated Igni Fury, and higher than the ordinary Igni seal.

At the same time, he was thinking.

When casting spells with two hands, the gestures of two hands are slightly different from when casting spells with one hand, and are more concise.

But when overlapped, they form a complete set of gestures.

No one in the Brotherhood, including Vesemir, has mastered this technique, which is a secret technique belonging to the Griffin sect.

……

Cohen stopped practicing, rubbed his fingertips, and said with awe in his eyes, "When I was a child, Teacher Kelda released the double Yarden Seal on me, and it was a mutated one that can lock the target. Ti Yaden Dharma Seal."

"I was trapped in place, hungry all day and night, as if I was locked in an invisible cage."

"There is a transparent wall of elemental energy surrounding my body, preventing me from moving."

Roy couldn't help but smack his lips.

General Arden traps are range-type spells, but they can only last for about five minutes. If the target changes position, the trap will become ineffective.

And the binding effect is usually slowing down and immobilizing the incorporeal body.

Far less effective than the scenario described by Cohen.

"The double seal involves the secret method of the gryphon." Cohen saw the heartbeat on his face and said apologetically, "So I'm sorry, buddy, I can't reveal it to you unless I get the teacher's permission."

"You can ask him for advice tomorrow."

Roy smiled understandingly and changed the subject,

"Tell me the next one."

……

"Mutation and wing flapping are both related to world spirits."

"You have meditated for the first time in the Ring of Elements... Your teacher should have told you that very few apprentices can come into contact with the four elemental planes... and one of the four world spirits during the first meditation. Produce induction."

"The four world spirits are the incarnations of the elements," said Cohen. "When they are in the elemental plane, every roar, roar, and every syllable they make contains unpredictable power, and it is easy to Call upon the power of the elements in your natural environment."

Roy still remembers that the fire giant's roar once burned him to death.

"If a demon hunter hears any kind of 'roar', the seal he masters may mutate and gain new abilities."

Cohen's tone was calm and patient, "To be precise, among the four world spirits, the Fire Giant affects the Igni Seal, the Dijin affects Alder and Arden, and the Water Goblin affects the Axis Seal. And Kramp...the earth spirit affects Quen and Helio..."

Roy heard the roar of the fire giant in the Ring of Elements in Kaer Morhen, and his Igni Seal mutated into the flame branch.

"Wait, man, is there an eighth kind of seal in the world?" Roy analyzed seriously, "The element of fire corresponds to one kind of seal, but the element of earth, water, and wind correspond to two kinds. It is not in line with the principle of balance."

"Work hard, man, maybe you can create the eighth seal in the future." Cohen joked with a serious expression,

"Back to the topic. Some members of the Griffin sect have the talent of warlocks...especially the fourteen demon hunters of the first generation, including Lord Elan. During the meditation on the Ring of Elements, I had interactions with world spirits, and based on my own understanding, I summarized the four types of 'roar'."

"And record it in the "Demon Hunting Notes" - burning the ancient and mysterious voice of the world spirit in another way...for the members of the Griffin Sect to listen and understand."

Roy's heart skipped a beat. He was extremely lucky to have come into contact with a world spirit.

After all, 99% of demon hunters cannot see the shadow of the four world spirits at all.

The Griffin School deserves to be called a legal school, and they actually contacted all of them without missing a single one.

"Cohen, let me put it this way, all seven of your seals have mutated."

"I have failed the teacher's expectations. I am not qualified - compared to other schools, I have mastered the skills of double seals." Cohen smiled bitterly and shook his head, with some regret on his face, "The roar of the world spirit ', it is very reasonable to infer that as long as anyone listens to it, his body and mind will change."

"And only those who have reached a certain level of meditation and have certain qualities themselves——"

"A heart as strong as steel and a willpower astonishing."

"Maybe it's a natural source of law."

"Only in this way can we survive the process of change unscathed."

“If you don’t have that kind of talent and you try it forcefully,” Cohen sighed, “you will have horrific symptoms such as spontaneous combustion, frozen internal organs, petrification, and the body falling apart.”

"Roy, if you have talent in this area, the teacher may give you the opportunity to browse the precious "Demon Hunting Notes"."

"Understand those great voices."

Roy rubbed his temples. According to his understanding of these so-called requirements,

Isn’t it just a requirement for meditation level, will attribute, and elemental affinity?

With all the skill points added to meditation, his meditation level exceeds that of most seniors. Should he barely reach the standard?

Will, as the main attribute, has left most creatures far behind, so there is no problem.

And he awakened a trace of ancient blood, and his elemental affinity was improved.

In short, the mutation of the seal is almost tailor-made for him, he wants to make it!

……

"As for the third secret method called wing fluttering, it is modified based on the 'roar' to assist in the casting of the seal." Cohen paused and asked a question, "Do you know why the demon hunter's seal is inferior? To a sorcerer's spell?"

Roy made a gesture of listening.

"Because the seal completely consumes the magic power in the demon hunter's body."

"The magic power in the body is limited, and the power of the attack is also extremely limited." Cohen's eyes flashed,

"In the warlock's spell system, the magic power consumed by himself is in a secondary position, just as an introduction. After the magic power leaves the body, it will quickly extract the chaotic energy in the air."

"The chaotic energy in the air is inexhaustible... so their spells are more powerful, a qualitative leap compared to the demon hunters' seals!"

"Of course, the warlock's spells also have shortcomings, such as longer preparation time, more cumbersome casting steps, and the need for talismans, complex casting materials, spells and other auxiliary steps."

"The Grand Master of Elam, as a source of magic, conducts in-depth research and analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of seals and spells."

"An improvement has been made to the sigil." The admiration on Cohen's face can be seen clearly, "He paired the witcher's sigil with a simplified and modified 'roar'... which is equivalent to adding a short monosyllabic Spell. Barely affects cast speed."

"The seven kinds of seals are based on the elemental attributes of 'earth, water, fire and wind'. When released, they are paired with four corresponding 'roars' to mobilize the chaotic energy in the air to strengthen the seal."

"The seal blessed with 'roar' -" Cohen's voice changed, "just like a young bird fluttering its wings, making its first clear cry, jumping up from the ground, breaking away from the shackles, and entering another vast world. .~IndoMTL.com~The seal will undergo a qualitative change, and its power will not be inferior to that of a warlock's spell, and it will be faster!"

“But wing flapping and mutation both involve ‘roaring’, so they have the same requirements.”

"First of all, you have to have that talent——"

"Meditative attainments, willpower, or innate source of law."

Roy took a long breath and was speechless for a long time.

The secret method of the Griffin School is more subtle and powerful than he imagined, and the mutation and flapping of the three secret methods are a perfect match for him.

He had to find a way to get them all.

Cohen glanced at the room again,

"Roy, except for the double seal, I have not been able to master the other two secret techniques and cannot demonstrate them in person, so...that's the end of it for today."

"You also need time to digest."
