The big man took a deep breath, pulled out the steel sword, and as his wrist shook, a strong wind blew, and amidst the humming, a white lightning flashed across the blacksmith shop.

"It's no wonder that we spent countless efforts, this sword is indeed worth it." Lei Suo wrapped it around the sword belt contentedly.

Not long after, Berengar handed him another silver serpent sword.

The two swords of the Snake School recovered in Lei Suo's hands, and the face of the big man was flushed with excitement, and he muttered uncontrollably,

"Colgrim, did you see? Your hard work was not in vain, the blueprint you brought back was cast into a weapon!"

"Recovering the school's weapons is only the first step, Leso." Roy said excitedly, "but this is a good sign. With our joint efforts, the school will return to its former glory sooner or later."

On the other side, Berengar, who was leaning against the iron felt exhaustedly, looked out the window in a daze with a tired face, and didn't know what to think.

Chapter 7 The Palace in the Lake

"A commission from a madman alchemist..."

"I solved it for you. You don't owe that guy a penny now." Roy smiled brightly, "Berengar, the content of the commission is quite interesting. Why did you refuse it?"

"You think it's interesting?" Berengar sat on the ground with a strange face and a little emptiness in his eyes, as if he was thinking of bad things in the past, "Boy, you are very brave. If it were me, I would never let a warlock transform myself into That hairy and noisy disgusting thing! But you help me deal with this big trouble, I owe you a favor, the hard work of making weapons..."

Berengar combed his greasy hair with sweaty palms, "I'll give you a [-]% discount!"

"One yard is one yard... We have seen your efforts during this period, and you deserve to be paid. Besides, the price has been negotiated before, and Lei Suo will not agree." Roy pretended to be open-minded and held the golden ticket Throwing it over, turning around again, grinning in pain, "There are still four swords, I need to trouble you."

"Then this money is the money you sponsor me for drinking." Berengar put away the gold ticket and yawned, "I don't need to run away after paying off the debt...I have to go back and sleep comfortably."

"Continue tomorrow!"

Berengar wiped away the water stains on his hands, stood up, his body was slightly hunched due to fatigue, he passed the two demon hunters, and walked into the deep night.

"Remember what I told you!" Roy shouted from behind, "You have to go back now, and the travel expenses are enough!"

Berengar paused, and a stern look flashed across his face, "Don't mention Kaer Morhen to me!"

When the words fell to the ground, he walked even faster.

"Little devil," the big man tightly hugged the two poisonous snake swords in his arms, watching Berengar's back as he went away, "why persuade him to go back?"

Roy stretched his waist, "There are only four members left in the Wolf School. If you can help them bring back an old member, it will definitely be the best meeting gift."

"Come on, there is no news from Geralt, we may not go to Kaer Morhen," Leto shook his head, "Besides, Berengar has been away from home for so many years, and he is used to walking alone, I want him to change his mind ,not that simple."

"I can feel that he has already touched a little bit, but it's not enough..." Roy paused, thinking of the conspiracy he discovered not long ago, "But next, I'm going to meet the goddess of the lake, are you going?"

……

The bright moon hangs high, and Lake Vizima gently swings its waist and sprinkles sparkling light.

White waves suddenly appeared on the quiet lake, and a strange-looking creature rushed to the sticky mud on the lakeshore.The moonlight reflected its shiny scales and humanoid limbs.

There is a fish head on its shriveled chest, and two huge fish eyes are rolling. It is not known whether it is too old, and there are two long and white whiskers growing on its lips.

A tattered piece of cloth was wrapped around its neck and covered its back like a small cloak, and between its fingers and toes grew duck-like webs.

It rushed to a shell-covered rock on the shore of the lake, purring and hissing in the air.Then, two witchers jumped out from behind the rock.

"We meet again..." Under the moonlight, the young witcher came over and extended his hand to the monster affectionately.This grotesque creature was none other than the half-murloc wise man, Geek, who took Roy to meet the goddess of the lake.

"Crackling...wow..." The bearded geek trembled excitedly, then shook the witcher's hand, leaving a sticky liquid in the other's palm.

"I understand that reuniting with a good friend is worth celebrating! I'm also very happy!" The witcher smiled brightly, and said sincerely that although the half-murloc has a catfish head and a funny appearance, it is very sincere. "How have you been?"

(The fallen are dead, the goddess is revived, and No. 20 members are born in the tribe, a cute little guy.)

"That's good... Geek, my friend, I didn't get a response when I summoned the goddess by the lake this afternoon, do you know what's going on?"

"Curry!" Qi Ke turned his gaze to the burly bald man behind Roy, with vigilance, "Wurihe?"

"Don't worry. He was born and died with me, and he also respects the goddess. I want to take him to meet the goddess, is that okay?"

Qi Ke tilted his head and fell into silence, as if he was communicating with some existence in the dark. After a while, it stretched its brows and eyes, nodded and stretched out its hand towards the lake.

Roy greeted his companions, and pulled out Arondette behind him. Under the moonlight, the long sword refracted light and was as bright as day, and as he waved it lightly, the gift from the goddess of the lake enveloped the body of the witcher. Standing steadily on the surface of the lake, he walked towards the center of the lake following the half-murloc geek.

"Little ghost, you let me swim over?"

"Night swimming is the best exercise for your body, why don't you think about it?"

Roy turned his head and whispered a few words to Qi Ke in the agitation of murderous intent, and then pointed the thick and short finger of the half murloc carrot at the big man. His feet emerged, and he just stepped onto the lake.

Humid water vapor floated from the distant lake surface and brushed across their cheeks. The two of them breathed the slightly watery air. When they lowered their heads, under the clear and emerald green lake water, clusters of fish wrapped in shadows came from them. Swimming past him, occasionally one or two fish with gray and black scales would swim over curiously and peck at his soles, and then dive into the bottom of the lake in surprise as he moved forward.

Continuing to walk, circles of cobweb-like water waves spread around the soles of their feet.They came to such an area, the lake surface was as calm as a mirror, reflecting a huge, bright moon. They walked into the projection, as if walking past the moon, which was wonderful and incredible.

Further back, a dreamy light blue light appeared not far away.

It wasn't the lights of Vizima on the other side of the lake, nor the moonlight reflected on the lake—it came from a palace in the middle of the lake.

The square palace located on the surface of the lake is not too big, far from being magnificent. Eight mottled hanging columns surround the outside of the palace, covered with green algae and shellfish, dripping water continuously. , as if just emerging from the bottom of the lake.

The two demon hunters stopped in front of the palace in amazement. They didn't remember such a palace on Lake Vizima, and they never saw the shadow of the palace during the day.

The half-murloc geek explained that the palace was once sunk in Lake Vizima and was surrounded by the dark waters of Dagan.

After Dagan was eliminated by the witcher, Vivian, the goddess of the lake, regained the ownership of the palace and summoned it to float to the surface of Lake Vizima every night.

In fact, under the lake, there is a wider and more magnificent ancient kingdom, which is the place where the half fish people have lived for generations, and the fairies in the lake also live here on weekdays.

"Underwater ruins?" The demon hunter followed the strange man with curiosity and stepped on a row of stone stairs. The stone stairs were corroded in a bad way, slanted down from the lake, and gradually penetrated into the invisible bottom of the lake.

The half-murloc man stopped on the stone stairs before entering the palace, stood sideways with his head held high, his face straight and respectful, like a servant of a nobleman.

The two demon hunters stepped into the palace under its signal, and a colorful throne made of coral appeared in the center of the field of vision.A huge night pearl stood above the throne, emitting a dreamy light blue light, illuminating the interior of the palace.

Among the throne, lay a "woman" lazily.

She is leaning on one side of the armrest of the throne, the huge fish tail under her body is swinging lightly and mischievously, and the scales are shimmering in blurred colors under the light of the night pearl. , The emerald green hair covers the embossed figure and half of the face, revealing the other half of the delicate childlike face, the petal-like lips,

Her jewel-like eyes blinked at the witcher, "Roy, the knight of Lake Vizima, is he finally willing to come and see me?"

The crisp and soft voice echoed in the palace, completely different from her mature and charming figure, full of another kind of childlike charm.

Roy controlled the trembling pendant around his neck, and his strong will allowed him to instantly dispel the beautiful thoughts in his mind. At the same time, he made a look at the big man next to him, making Lei Suo look away curiously.

Compared with the last meeting, the goddess of the lake has changed a lot, not only her more unpredictable charm, but also her unfathomable strength-the magic power that lingers around her, is everywhere, and is almost real.

Chapter 8 The Entrustment of the Lake Lady

A round of bright crescent moon hangs in the sky, casting fine moonlight.

The moonlight is like stars, embellishing the hazy night veil skirt on the shore of Lake Vizima.

The evening wind blew across the water, carrying moist and cold water vapor, and passed through the palace in the middle of the lake. The demon hunter shrank his shoulders, as if he felt a little unbearably cold.

"Ms. Vivienne, I came from Brock Leon, bringing greetings from Ms. Heinena. I haven't seen you for a few months, and your demeanor is even better than before!" Roy bent down and bowed, his eyes swept across the throne Looking at that sweet and pretty face, the mood is a bit complicated.

What is the relationship between him and the lake girl?

When it comes to superiors and subordinates, he doesn't actually have much awe in his heart.

He was said to be a friend, but the ubiquitous enthusiasm and charm of the other party made him subconsciously stay away.If it was an ambiguous relationship, no matter how arrogant he was, he would not think that this passionate lake fairy just liked him, that would be unrealistic.

But there is no doubt that there is some kind of connection between them, with the trial of virtue as a bond, and there is also an exchange of interests.

The lake girl gave the demon hunter a magical weapon and gave him all kinds of conveniences, and the demon hunter returned the gift by maintaining her safety.

Such as the current situation.

"Heinna, I haven't seen you for 200 years." The woman in the center of the palace was silent for a moment, recalling the past, "I received the greeting... the warrior next to you is the snake demon hunter Lei Suo?"

"That's right, it's my teacher."

"You don't need to be restrained..." The bald man in the lake smiled, and for a moment, the night sky seemed to be illuminated by stars, "Thanks to your assistance in defeating Dagang last time, is that space ring still useful?"

"Very handy, thank you for your generosity, Ms. Huzhong." The bald man stroked his chest and bowed to him, his expression neither humble nor overbearing.

"So, Roy, what brings you here today, just for a greeting?"

"Your great love really makes me ashamed. Since I received the Lake Lady's Sword from you, I haven't been able to spread your brilliance as promised. In comparison, Princess Adda's contribution makes me feel ashamed."

The lake girl lying on the throne heard the words and said with a smile, "There is no need to be modest, Yada is such an excellent high priest who is willing to join me because of your suggestion."

"I thought you wouldn't agree." Roy expressed the doubt in his heart, "If you intend to establish a church, you can organize the fishermen and murlocs by the lake a long time ago..."

"Before I was threatened by Dagang, I was like a naive little girl... With the natural magic power bestowed by the lake, I lived a carefree life for a long time." Vivienne's soft voice was heard in the palace in the middle of the lake. There was a faint echo in the middle, and he said frankly, "But later I realized how fragile and ridiculous I am. I have no magic power, but I can't even drive away a bug from the alien plane."

"If all the residents of Lake Vizima believe in me, my believers alone can cut off all Dagan's wings without your hands."

"I also have to thank that bedbug, it reminded me, how can outsiders be allowed to interfere in the place where I sleep?" Vivienne's plump lips were tightly pursed, her tone became cold, and in an instant, The blue waves on the surface of Lake Vizima rippling, a gust of moisture-filled wind blew, and the temperature dropped several degrees in an instant.

"It's time to make a change, there must be no second invaders in the Lake District!"

Roy was silent, and as expected, Dagan influenced the thoughts of the goddess of the lake.

But this kind of change is undoubtedly beneficial to him. He stands in the camp of the lady of the lake, and the power of the lady of the lake is thriving. His vision and desire to rebuild the school can also benefit from it.

"How about it, my knight? I have seen the flourishing situation of the Church of Virtue. Are you interested in serving in the church? High Priest Adda is the sharp knife for me to open up the territory, and you will be my strongest shield!"

Roy was silent for a moment. His ambition had already been set, but it had nothing to do with the church.Turning to it,

"Ma'am, it's a good thing that the church is developing rapidly, but it's also coveted by some people with ulterior motives. I took the liberty to disturb you all night this time. Is it because I accidentally smashed a conspiracy?"

"conspiracy?"

"Someone is secretly planning to harm you." Roy said in a deep voice.

"Aren't you here to catch up with me?" The lake girl smiled less, then lowered her eyes and sighed sadly, "I knew, Roy, you young osprey would not land on the lake for no reason."

Her eyes were full of resentment, like lotus leaves folded by the rain, with a kind of purity and charm that I still feel pity for.

But the demon hunter was no longer a simple boy, his eyes remained unmoved, "Ma'am, please listen to me, this matter has something to do with Adda, more precisely, it is the people around her who are plotting."

Roy described the discovery in Aza's laboratory to the lake girl, and at the same time, Lei Suo presented some copies of the materials.

After browsing through it, the lake girl lowered her beautiful fishtail from the armrest of the throne to the ground, and straightened her posture, "Knight, I believe you won't lie. But I also know Adda and all her secrets. As the high priest of the church , she will never betray me..." Hu Nu's tone was soft but irrefutable.

"Your Royal Highness must not know about it." The demon hunter nodded and said, since the lake girl can recall his past experience in the five virtues trial, she can naturally gain insight into all of Adda's actions, "In my opinion, those two guys... Vizima Royal Advisor Aza Javed, and White Rose Knights leader Rudolf Valaris have been keeping the princess in the dark, and then through her hands, they collected your hair and studied your weaknesses. It's a pity , so far I haven’t figured out where their plans have come to.”

"It's great to be able to bring back this news." The lake girl smiled at him softly like a spring breeze, and then her eyebrows furrowed, "Royal advisor, leader of the Knights... as the two of you in Vizima , status, the only person who can make them betray Adda is... King Foltest of Vizima."

The demon hunter nodded, "We think so too, but there are some things that I don't understand. Foltest has always doted on Princess Adda, why this time..."

"Vizima is the capital of Temeria, the center of the kingdom, and the territory of Foltest...the matter is of great importance." The Lake Lady said slowly, "The king will not allow instability outside the scope of his power. Factors emerged, and Virtue Church, Lady of the Lake's faith is naturally one of them, it is not surprising that he will be suppressed by him. In fact, I had expected this, I thought that with Adda's influence, it would be able to delay for a while, let The church is developing steadily. Now it seems that my thinking is too simple, which caused Foltest's dissatisfaction."

"Your Majesty the King of Temeria," said the witcher rather apprehensively, "why is it targeting you?"

"If the church is outside the scope of the king's power, all the religions established in Vizima: Rebioda, Eternal Fire, Meritelli are undoubtedly out of control, why did Foltest attack you ?”

"It's very simple." The pretty face of the lake girl showed a bit of bitterness. "Although our family has lived at the bottom of the lake for a long time, we are not isolated from the world. We can learn about the outside world through the murloc believers and nearby fishermen."

"The three churches you mentioned all have a history of at least hundreds of years, and Melitelli has existed for thousands of years. From the darkest and ignorant age on this continent to the present, believers and branches spread all over the continent , the background is extremely profound, no matter which country’s king wants to move them, it is not an easy task, and it may even provoke a civil uprising.”

"The church under my command was only established two months ago, and it is developing rapidly, but its foundation is shallow. It is easy for the king to suppress us."

Roy shook his head and said, "You spread virtue, which is fundamentally different from evil gods like lion-faced spiders, and will not shake the king's rule. Why is he unwilling to communicate with you? His daughter is your high priest. "

"Little ghost..." The bald man suddenly said, "You don't have to trouble Ma'am with this question, I can give you the answer." He looked at Lake Lady,

The lake girl and Roy also kept quiet and made a gesture of listening.

"Nowadays, on this continent, almost all the gods have disappeared. Just imagine, if one day you suddenly heard that there is a living, stunningly beautiful goddess, what would you think?"

"I... probably will visit this god and witness her miracles." Roy replied naturally.

"That's what ordinary people think," the big man said with a disdainful smile. "The rulers have greed and desire far beyond ordinary people. They want more, do you understand?"

Roy was thoughtful, and the lake girl on the opposite side nodded at him and said, "Your teacher told me what I think..."

"We are the daughters of the lake, controlling all the waters where we live, and can easily absorb murlocs and other underwater intelligent creatures as believers."
