Chapter 168: Lady in the Lake
In the world of Velen, there are countless stories about gods. Almost every church has a lot of stories about the main god of its own church. However, most of the stories about gods in these churches are only known to the believers of this church. People from other churches and
Ordinary people are not very clear about it. Even those who know it will confuse the gods in the story, and they can't figure out which god did what, and which god had what great achievements.
However, among all the true gods recorded by the Orthodox Church, there is only one god. It is not only recorded in the books of other churches, but also widely circulated in various folk stories. It is definitely the most famous god in the world of Velen. This god
It’s Vivian, the Lady of the Lake.
This goddess is always associated with warriors, warriors and heroes. For example, some great warriors will have a tryst with this goddess one night, some warriors will receive the blessing of this goddess before going to the battlefield, and some heroes will have a tryst with this goddess one night.
When he was still unknown, he would be valued by the goddess and given some magical powers, weapons, etc.
Just like other gods in the world of Velen, this goddess has now disappeared from the world of Velen. The last legend related to her was in the history of the restoration and rise of the knight king of the French Empire. It is said that that
The founder of the French Eastern Empire once met the Lady of the Lake who lived in seclusion here in the Black Forest, and received her heroic blessing.
Coincidentally, in the dream world, there are also a lot of legends about the Lady of the Lake. This goddess is also related to the most powerful and brave warriors, and there is also a church of the Lady of the Lake, and even a very special one.
There are many believers, including warriors, prostitutes, housewives, etc.
There are also many contents in the files about the Church of the True Eye just now that record the Lady of the Lake. Most of these contents are related to the guard warriors in the Fog Zone, because the Church of the Lady of the Lake is the only one that has established a warrior shelter in the guard castle in the Fog Zone.
The church.
The reason why the Lady of the Lake Church can have such special treatment is because the Lady of the Lake will give blessings to all warriors, regardless of whether they are believers of their own church or not. These blessings can help the warriors reduce fatigue, enhance strength and other effects.
The only flaw of this blessing is that after the battle, the warriors will be very sleepy, and they usually sleep for a day or two before waking up. According to legend, the reason why they remain asleep after the battle is because the souls of these warriors were invited by the Lady of the Lake.
Arrive at the Hall of Heroes and attend the banquet hosted by the lady specifically for heroic warriors.
However, what came to Leo's mind after seeing this information was not a blessing, but the riot rune in chaos witchcraft. No matter how you look at it, it feels like a riot rune with weakened effects and greatly reduced side effects.
.
It's just that Leo never thought that he would have doubts about the blessing of the lady in the lake not long ago, and as soon as he turned around, he would come face to face with this legendary goddess in his temporary address.
"What an ancient etiquette. I haven't seen this kind of etiquette for a long time." After seeing Leo salute with an etiquette learned from the Orthodox Church's books, the lady in the lake showed a slightly surprised expression, and then smiled,
Said: "It's just that you are using this etiquette in the wrong place. This is the etiquette used by the saints of the church to the main god of their faith. You are neither a saint, nor am I your main god."
Leo said casually: "Sorry, this is the first time I use this kind of etiquette and I don't understand these rules. I will pay attention to it next time."
"Haha! You are such an interesting warrior." The lady in the lake looked at Leo as if looking at a favorite toy, and said: "I have seen many brave warriors, no matter what they want
How to show your charm? You are always in awe and even fear of me in your heart, but I can't feel any emotion in you. Since there is no awe, fear, or love and joy, you are really special! Leo Dodd.
"
The lady in the lake once again used the word "special" to describe Leo, which shows that she has a very strong interest in Leo.
If other warriors in the dream world knew that the lady in the lake had such a strong interest in him, they would definitely be flattered and even ecstatic, but all Leo could think about was trouble.
Yes, this goddess who is so beautiful that she can enchant any warrior is a big trouble in Leo's eyes.
After experiencing the initial shock, Leo, who calmed down, also compared the strength gap between himself and the legendary goddess through the analysis of his secondary brain system.
If the goddess in front of him is really the lady in the lake of ancient gods recorded by the Orthodox Church of the Velen World, Leo will not have any sense of resistance to her at all, because he is like an ant in front of Omega-level advanced creatures, even if he is now
Already close to a fourth-level psyker, he is just a slightly stronger ant at best.
But now the lady in the lake still makes him feel extremely powerful, but this power is not the kind of power that makes people despair. Perhaps it is because the lady in the lake in front of him is just the divine clone of the real lady in the lake, or
Perhaps it is due to some other unknown reasons, but in short, according to the analysis of the accessory brain system, the lady in the lake in front of her only has the strength of an eighth-level psyker, which is to say that she is almost the same as the True Eye in the suburbs of Miria.
Although there is still no room for resistance for Leo with such power, after analyzing all his methods, the subbrain system gave an analysis result with a fighting force. With this fighting power, he only needs to
If he can successfully pierce the sacrificial knife into the opponent's body, he can initiate the sacrifice. At that time, it will not be him fighting with the goddess, but the Lord of Turbidity and Light Spirit, the outer god, and the Lady of the Lake, the ancient god.
Confrontation.
Precisely because he had confidence in his heart, Leo did not show too much awe to this legendary goddess, and his tone and words were very casual, just like talking to an ordinary person, but he didn't know the correct way.
It was because of his casual attitude that he attracted more attention from the lady in the lake.
Leo didn't mince words and asked directly: "Madam, why would you use this method to approach a mortal like me?"
"You are a brave and mighty warrior, and I am the Lady of the Lake. Isn't that enough?" The Lady of the Lake walked up to Leo. While speaking, she looked at Leo condescendingly, and then leaned down.
He leaned his head against the side of Leo's head, stretched out his tongue and licked Leo's ears and neck, and said, "And your smell is very good, I like this smell."
At this moment, the smell of the lady in the lake, the softness of her tongue, and the moisture of her breath penetrated into Leo's body and soul like some kind of primitive hormone, making him irresistible and gave birth to the most primitive desire.
And when Leo felt something was wrong, he immediately activated his mechanical will, and his entire spirit entered a state of absolute rationality. All desires in his body and mind disappeared instantly, leaving only an abyss-like coldness.
"I hope madam, you will stop doing this kind of thing, because..." Leo turned his head and looked calmly at the eyes of the lady in the lake. Looking at this beautiful goddess was no different from looking at a stone.
, said indifferently: "...I don't like it!"
The lady in the lake, who had always maintained a confident expression from just now, saw Leo's eyes as cold as the abyss, her expression instantly solidified, and she couldn't help but feel an unprecedented fear in her heart, which even made her feel like a mortal
I couldn't help but shudder.
The lady in the lake straightened up, took a deep breath to stabilize her mood, and instinctively took a few steps back to try to keep herself away from Leo. After her mood eased a little, she looked at Leo thoughtfully, with words written on her face.
Full of doubts and surprise, he asked in a deep voice: "Who are you?"
"Leo Dodd, a traveler." Leo said calmly.
"We should have a good talk!" Ms. Hu Zhong felt that she seemed to have become passive, so she said in a slightly tougher tone.
"Today is not a suitable time to talk. I think madam, you should leave." As Leo said this, the gloves on his hands turned into sacrificial knives, and at the same time, a stream of spiritual energy was injected into the sacrificial knife.
, making the surface of the sacrificial knife glow with a faint layer of blood.
The bloody light of the sacrificial knife made the fear in the heart of the lady in the lake even more intense. She felt that if she was hurt by this knife, it would probably be fatal. This feeling of being close to death was something she had never experienced before.
This kind of fear made the lady in the lake couldn't help but take two steps back, and Leo's aura suddenly changed, turning into another unexplainable state, giving the lady in the lake the feeling of some indescribable
It was like a presence staring at her through Leo's eyes.
This inexplicable momentum also caused the lady in the lake to back away repeatedly, until she leaned against the kitchen window, and the moonlight reflected on the Silver Moon Lake behind her shone on her, blending with the light on her body.
It slightly relieved her nervousness and regained her composure.
"I think I have remembered you, Traveler Leo Dodd." The lady in the lake no longer said this to Leo in a condescending tone of voice at the moment.
Europeans are regarded as equal life forms.
Leo's momentum at this moment also receded like the tide, and the sacrificial knife returned to the shape of a fist glove, but his expression was still cold, and he responded without emotion: "It is my honor to be remembered by you, madam."
"I hope you can still be so confident when you see it." The lady in the lake, who had returned to normal, seemed to have forgotten what happened just now, chuckled, and said with deep meaning.
"It?" Leo looked at the lady in the lake in confusion.
"It's the first god you saw, not me." The lady in the lake stepped back, her body turned into nothingness, passed through the wall, stepped on the lake outside with her bare feet, and was struck by a wave of
Surrounded by a group of silver light, and while the body gradually dissipated, he said to Leo: "We will meet again, Traveler Leo Dodd."
As these words were spoken, the body of the lady in the lake completely disappeared in the silver light, and the light on the lake returned to its original state.
At this moment, Leo was sitting limply on the ground like a puppet that had lost its support. Heavy breathing came from his nose, and large beads of sweat emerged from his pores like water from a valve.
When I came out, my clothes were quickly soaked through.
At this moment, Leo felt as if he had fought a battle that lasted for dozens of hours. He was exhausted both physically and mentally. He just wanted to lie on the ground and not get up.
Just now, he used the sacrificial knife to kill the remaining God-killing aura after killing the Eye of Truth. At the same time, he used his spirit to disguise himself as the Lord of turbidity and lightness that he had seen, and coupled with his mechanical will, he made all the other party's mental detection abilities completely impossible.
In the end, the lady on the lake was frightened by these bluffing methods.
The lady on the lake was more curious about Leo than hostile, and had no intention of becoming a mortal enemy, so she chose to give in. Otherwise, if the two of them fought, Leo's chances of winning would be slim, even if he used all his strength.
If he attacks with all his might, it's a question of whether he can touch the body of the lady in the lake, let alone kill the opponent.
Although Leo was a little confused as to why the lady in the lake noticed him and even contacted him directly, he didn't take it too seriously.
Thinking about the stories in the legend, it is not difficult to find that the Lady of the Lake has a special liking for those powerful warriors, and will often come into contact with them in mortal form. Even in the legends of the world of Velen, there are many Lady of the Lake who are powerful warriors.
Stories about warriors giving birth to children.
In the intelligence information about the Church of the True Eye, it is also mentioned through some phrases that among all the churches in the dream world, the Lady of the Lake is the church deity who has the most contact with mortals. Although the head-on contact with a legendary deity makes it difficult to
People are surprised, but if this spirit is the Lady of the Lake, this unexpected emotion will not last long.
Judging from various legends, although the lady in the lake has a somewhat perverse personality, she helps those she likes and frames those she doesn't like, but overall, she is still a positive god, so she completely annoys the other party in Leo, and makes her
Before the other party loses interest, he doesn't have to worry too much about the lady in the lake being harmful to him.
Compared to the lady in the lake, Leo cared more about the thing mentioned by the lady in the lake.
Although the lady in the lake used the word beast to refer to the mysterious existence that had paid attention to Leo, Leo could hear that this pronoun was just a contemptuous name with helpless emotions. It was as if the lady in the lake and her mouth
We have a very bad relationship with each other, but we can't do anything to the other party, so we can only talk about some advantages.
Therefore, instead of seeing it as a beast or monster, Leo could not see it as a being equal to the lady in the lake. At this time, a figure could not help but appear in Leo's mind.
That day, after he entered the town of Seventh Lake, he encountered the murder of two town guards, and saw a black figure in the lake taking away the bodies thrown into the water. At that time, the black figure in the water also attacked him.
The spirit had some influence, making him have the urge to jump into the water, but he used his mechanical will to get rid of this influence, so he could not let the black shadow succeed.
When the black shadow disappeared, he was still unwilling to catch Leo and let out a roar. Leo still remembers that harsh neighing sound.
