Chapter 146: The Lady of the Lake's blessing
In the backyard of Wayne's house, the old witcher Vesemir got up very early. Wayne had just gotten up when he saw him, Berengar, and the Griffin School's George together in the blacksmith workshop, talking softly, seemingly studying some equipment blueprints.
As the saying goes, "long-term illness makes a doctor." Because they have spent decades or even hundreds of years dealing with blacksmiths, using most of their savings to repair equipment and forge equipment, every old witcher may not have the forging craftsmanship of a professional blacksmith.
But their knowledge of blacksmithing is no worse than that of ordinary blacksmiths. This is why every witcher school has precious blueprints such as Grandmaster sets and Master sets.
These precious legacies left by predecessors were all completed by previous witchers based on their own experience and little by little improvement.
As the Grandmaster of the Wolf School, a witcher nearly three hundred years old, Vesemir is undoubtedly one of the most experienced witchers. His application and understanding of swords and armor are beyond everyone's imagination. Perhaps he can also create a set of Master-level equipment blueprints that belong to him.
And Lambert and Eskel were not so diligent. Since the two of them came to Wayne's house, their spare time replaced Wayne's daily fish-bombing work.
Wayne's warehouse has plenty of various alchemy bombs. These two brothers have never fought such a rich battle. Every day, they excitedly bring a large pile of bombs to the side of Wyzima lake.
Cooperating with the little ground spirit Fitz, they began to harm those Drowners underwater.
Not only the Drowners underwater suffered, but even the fish in the lake were not spared. Every time after bombing fish, the two brothers would bring back a large pile of fresh freshwater fish, which were then made into salted fish and dried fish by the diligent Berengar, and dried in the backyard, densely packed.
Lambert also boasted that when he left Wyzima, he would take away hundreds of kilograms of dried salted fish, which could not only solve the food problem on weekdays, but also be used as hard currency when forced, sold to those taverns and restaurants, and exchanged for gold coins.
This idea was also agreed by Eskel, who was also used to a hard life. Being able to have a few salted fish when camping in the wild is also a good choice.
Wayne didn't bother with this pair of living treasures, but changed into a clean and handsome outfit, rode Lucifer, and prepared to go to the Swamp Village.
Today is the day he meets the Lady of the Lake. Perhaps because of Yennefer's arrival, Triss, Keira, and Yennefer, the three sorceresses, gathered together and quickly developed the underwater combat barrier that Wayne needed. Although it has not been tested in actual combat, with this sharp weapon, there is no need to wait any longer.
After he formally reports this matter to the Lady of the Lake today, the final decisive battle can begin tomorrow.
He greeted everyone in the house and rode to the Swamp Village, finding the Fisherman King who was fishing leisurely by the lake.
The mysterious Fisherman King seemed not surprised by Wayne's arrival. He just asked faintly: "What's the matter, favored one of the Goddess."
Regarding this mysterious guy, Wayne didn't say much, just simply said:
"I have something to see the Goddess, please take me to Black Gull Island."
The Fisherman King heard this, just looked at Wayne deeply, didn't say anything, neatly packed up the fishing rod in his hand, took him on a small boat, rowed all the way to Black Gull Island, stopped at a shore, and said faintly: "Go by yourself, I'll wait for you here."
After Wayne thanked him, he didn't hesitate and walked toward the forest in his memory.
Because he had the Ekimmara amulet given by the Druid Elder, no beasts would take the initiative to attack him along the way, and the road was quite stable.
After walking for about twenty minutes, passing through the dense forest, he successfully arrived at the beautiful lake like a fairyland in the center of the forest.
This time, Wayne did not use the ring given by the Goddess to summon the Lady of the Lake. After he approached the lake, he immediately felt a mysterious aura covering the area around him.
Soon, the beautiful and holy figure of the Lady of the Lake slowly appeared from the lake and rose above the lake.
Looking at the Goddess's beautiful appearance, perfect figure, and clear blue eyes like the lake, Wayne sighed slightly in his heart, lowered his head, and whispered:
"Praise you, beautiful Lady of the Lake." The Lady of the Lake walked slowly to Wayne's side, opened her red lips, and said in an ethereal voice:
"No need to be polite, my warrior."
"Why did you come to see me?"
Facing this Goddess, hypocrisy and politeness are superfluous. Wayne raised his head, while admiring the beautiful body of the Goddess hidden under the light gauze, said: "Goddess, I have gathered a group of powerful warriors and three powerful spellcasters."
"We will start attacking the evil god's nest under the lake tomorrow, striving to completely eradicate this tumor hidden here at once."
"Everything is ready, so I came to report to you."
I don't know if the Lady of the Lake already knew about this. After listening to Wayne's report, a smile like a spring breeze appeared on her beautiful face. In an instant, that beautiful smile even made Wayne feel a warmth in his heart.
The Goddess looked into Wayne's eyes and said softly:
"You are doing a praiseworthy thing, my warrior."
After speaking, the Goddess held Wayne's face, took him into her arms, and then kissed him lightly on the forehead. A fragrance like an empty valley and orchids drilled into Wayne's nose. His face seemed to feel the moist and smooth skin under the thin gauze, and the moist red lips pressed against his forehead, leaving a shallow kiss mark.
However, this feeling was fleeting. The Goddess let go of Wayne's body and said softly:
"I have bestowed the protection of the lake water upon you. In tomorrow's battle, my power will protect you. The evil thoughts of the evil god cannot invade your spirit. I hope you can completely cut off the evil god's clone hidden under the lake,"
"I look forward to your triumphant return, my warrior."
"After you achieve victory, I will bestow upon you the reward you deserve."
After saying these words, the Lady of the Lake walked slowly back to the center of the lake and, under Wayne's gaze, disappeared into the lake again.
Until the Goddess completely disappeared, Wayne bowed slightly to the lake, and then walked toward the outside of the forest.
The Lady of the Lake is still as beautiful, cold, and ethereal, like the pure girl that every man longs for in his heart.
Unfortunately, she is indeed very different from ordinary girls. There is something called divinity, which makes it difficult for people to produce desire for her.
However, the harder it is to get something, the more it arouses people's greed. Thinking of the Lady of the Lake's holy face showing other more interesting expressions always makes people feel itchy in their hearts and want to do something.
Wayne thought about this strange idea while returning to the Fisherman King's boat. The big battle is tomorrow, and he must spend more time preparing to ensure that tomorrow's battle is foolproof.
For this reason, he also prepared to see someone today, that is, the Druid Elder Kaen he had thought of many times but never went to see.
In fact, the reason why he didn't see this old man so many times before, besides really not having time, was that he didn't find where Kaen's Druid Circle was.
Fortunately, this time with the help of the Wolf School brothers, this task was handed over to Geralt, who had been idle and bored. He did not live up to expectations, and it only took two or three days to find the Druid Circle hidden in the forest and find Kaen's location.
When Wayne came out of the Swamp Village, Geralt was already waiting on the side of the road riding his mount, Roach.
