Evening Bell Church

The moment he held the sword, Su Ge felt a blue wave gradually appear around him.

When he came to his senses, he found himself standing in a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters.

It seems to be in the mountains, surrounded by endless tall mountains.

He was standing on the edge of a lake, with green grass under his bare feet.

The lake in front of us is sparkling with sparkling waves, matched with the warm sunshine and bright spring water.

Behind and around were tall, green woods, from which the clear chirping of birds could be heard, resounding throughout the forest.

There are bright flowers growing among the trees and beside the lake, among which bees and butterflies dance gracefully and leisurely.

The whole world is full of life, giving people a sense of tranquility and peace.

"This is simply the forest wonderland where elves live in those movies." Su Ge looked at the surrounding scenery and couldn't help but exclaimed.

Looking around, Su Ge looked back and found that he was standing here naked as if he had been under an illusion last time.

But this time the feeling was completely different from last time, because Su Ge's soul had undergone a huge sublimation and evolution.

Gurgling...

Suddenly the sound of trickling water came to my ears.

Su Ge turned his head when he heard the sound and saw that in a certain area of ​​this beautiful mirror-like lake, there was a bulge like a water column, as if something was about to emerge from the water.

As the water column increased, under Su Ge's gaze, a beautiful figure appeared in the lake.

It's obvious at first glance that it's not human.

She has long sky-blue hair and a crown made of green twigs and flowers.

Her dark green eyes held an indifference that was not human. She looked as beautiful as a fairy, and looked so sacred and inviolable.

She wore a blue loose robe on her upper body, and her lower body blended with the lake.

There is a pair of water wings formed by the lake behind her. With a slight flapping, her body becomes light and silently glides on the lake.

This glide did not produce any ripples on the lake, and the blue lake surface was as smooth as a mirror.

"Intruder, welcome to this lake wonderland." The red lips were slightly opened, and a cold and ethereal voice came out.

Su Ge smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that there really is such a beautiful elf like you in this world. It is my honor to see you."

As he spoke, he bowed and saluted.

If he is wearing a black suit at this time, this salute is full of elegance and calmness.

However, he was naked at this time, which made people feel very perverted.

This elf turned a blind eye to Su Ge's salute, and said with a cold tone and a condescending attitude: "Despicable intruder, since you are greedy to get your hands on the holy sword, then accept the test of this lake. This is Punishment for your despicable behavior.”

It can be seen that she has regarded Su Ge as the thief who snatched "the determination to have no regrets".

Su Ge didn't explain much, nodded and asked: "Okay, then how should I accept the test of this lake?"

The elf turned his body slightly: "The surface of this lake is condensed with high concentration of spiritual energy. If you have enough qualifications, you can walk on the water to the other side. If you are not qualified, your body will Fall into this lake and become one with the water.”

"Then what are the criteria for this qualification? Beautiful fairy?" Su Ge asked respectfully.

The elf replied in a cold and blunt tone: "Take back your flattery, stupid human. I am not the kind of human woman who would let down her guard because of your unintentional flattery."

After that, she explained: "If you want to step on the lake, you need to have a strong enough will and determination. These two will allow you to maintain your original intention at all times and not be affected by external influences or be influenced by others." The outside world will control you. Only by maintaining enough will and determination can you resist the erosion and disaster of pure spiritual energy and avoid falling into the water. "

"Of course, you have to be careful. This is a lake and a mirror of the soul. It reflects your truest, darkest, most vulnerable inner self, and they will continue to tempt you."

Hearing this, Su Ge nodded slightly: "The inner demons that challenge yourself in this novel are relatively similar, so it's not a big problem."

After hearing this, the elf hummed and said: "Your blindness and arrogance will become your grave, let's get started!"

Su Ge stepped on the wet grass and came to the lake. Looking at the calm lake water, he suddenly asked: "Excuse me, can I use the equipment?"

A hint of sneer flashed in the elf's eyes: "Of course, there are no restrictions. The premise is that your equipment can be brought here."

"Thank you!"

Su Ge said, taking a deep breath and stepping on the lake.

The next second, his feet did not sink, but felt as if they were stepping on a plush carpet, very soft and comfortable.

"It doesn't seem to be a big problem." Taking the first step, Su Ge felt a little relieved.

Then he took his second step. At the moment when Su Ge's feet were all on the lake, the elf's voice came from far and near: "The trial begins."

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Ge suddenly felt a sharp tingling sensation on the soles of his feet, as if he was not stepping on the lake at this moment, but on sharp needle points.

Hiss, hiss...

The severe pain made Su Ge take a breath and whispered: "It's okay! It's okay! This is all a fantasy! This is all a fantasy!"

With that said, he took his second step.

However, this second kick was more painful than the first kick, and the severe pain almost made him scream.

"If it hurts, just scream, cry, if you can't stand it, just retreat. Aren't you afraid of pain since you were a child?" Under the lake, another Su Ge condensed and spoke.

Su Ge was very afraid of pain since he was a child. He would cry at the slightest pain, longing for his parents' comfort.

"That was when I was a child, not now!" Su Ge's face was red, and his forehead was bulging with veins.

After experiencing the baptism of magic potion twice, his tolerance for pain has indeed improved significantly.

At this time, he took the third step. And the pain of this step doubled again.

The intense pain made his legs tremble, his spirit tremble, and his scalp numb.

"You are not ready yet. It will hurt more and more in the future. Go back to the shore to rest first. Be mentally prepared. You will definitely be able to do it next time."

Suddenly, a voice sounded in Su Ge's heart, his own voice.

He was very familiar with this voice, because this voice had accompanied him all his life on Earth.

"Let's talk about this tomorrow. I have one day to deal with it tomorrow."

"Tomorrow! I will start to exercise formally tomorrow. Today is my last day of leisure. Tomorrow is the beginning."

"The homework is very simple. I will finish it all in one go tomorrow!"

…………

Su Ge couldn't take the fourth step. He turned his head with difficulty and looked at the shore that was so close that he could reach it with two big steps.

"Go back first. Just prepare a little and slow down. I will definitely be able to do it next time." Su Ge thought to himself.

Suddenly, he wanted to turn around and return to the shore like a demon.

The elf on the side saw this with disdain in his eyes.

Just as he was about to turn around, the black sun on Su Ge's chest suddenly flashed a terrifying black light.

Dong!

Then a bell sounded from Su Ge's heart.

In an instant, Su Ge came back to his senses as if he had been enlightened. His eyes became clear again. He gritted his teeth and looked back at the other side of the lake.

"In my last life, I was a loser who only looked forward to tomorrow! Those twenty-six years left countless regrets. I have regretted my whole life. God gave me a second chance to live. If I continue to waste it like this, am I still a fucking man? This is my only life, no regrets!"

With his eyes wide open, Su Ge almost roared as he took the fourth step.

Puff!

This time, the spikes extending from the lake directly pierced Su Ge's sole.

A large amount of blood flowed out, dyeing the blue lake red.

However, at this time, Su Ge's eyes widened. This step seemed to represent a special threshold. At that moment, Su Ge felt his spirit tremble, as if he sensed some special spiritual connection from this space.

"If you continue, you may die. This is a real space, and all wounds will be brought into the real world." The elf next to him reminded faintly.

"Die!? Haha..." Su Ge looked down at his pierced sole, and suddenly a low laugh came out of his mouth.

The elf was very dissatisfied with the despicable human's smile and asked coldly: "What are you laughing at?"

Su Ge slowly raised his head, his expression was serious, and he said solemnly and proudly: "For me, the boundary between life and death has been blurred. The death you know has no meaning to me."

"How shameless!" How could the elf believe these nonsense.

Su Ge did not continue to speak, looking at the other side of the lake, and took the fifth step calmly.

The sound waves of the evening bell filled his body, wandering and echoing.

The whispers left from ancient times kept echoing in Su Ge's mind like the words of the gods.

Dong!

Another bell sounded from the heart.

In an instant, a very obvious circular ripple spread out from Su Ge's feet.

"This is impossible! How can you cause the resonance of this lake!?" Seeing this, the elf who had always been aloof was suddenly shocked.

Su Ge tilted his head slightly, his expression indifferent: "I am the executioner of the evening bell who controls and accepts death. Death is just my robe. You ignorant elves who want to threaten me with death, you should feel honored and qualified to see my true form."

Instantly!

A large amount of pale blue mist appeared in the huge evening bell tattoo behind Su Ge, surrounding Su Ge, and then the four wings on the top of the big bell seemed to be affected by something and slowly stretched out.

A few seconds later, Su Ge's naked body was wearing a wide black robe, and there were many more pale blue cloud-like patterns on the wide black robe than last time.

The hood rose from the back of his head like a helmet, covering Su Ge's head and face.

Whoosh! A pair of flaming eyes appeared under the dark hood.

He stretched out his arm from the robe and waved it casually, and the cane turned into a long sword in his hand.

"This is..." The elf was completely dumbfounded when he saw this.
