Chapter 437: Thea's Choice
"Alright, you've passed all your tests, and now it's time to claim your rewards. Morgan Le Fay's clone closed the parchment, reached out and summoned the golden cube wrapped around the bones, and motioned for Thea to come forward and get it.
At first, Thea thought that the reward was really this cube, but she soon realized that it was wrong, not to mention the actual use of this thing, but only to mention that it was part of a temptation trap, and that Morgan didn't value it at all.
What Morgan and Merlin fought for three days and three nights, and what joined forces to deduce clues after that, I'm afraid it's all fake, this corpse is also a bit fake, Thea doesn't believe that Morgan will carve a low-level spell like charm in his bones, which is too lo.
The most important thing is that there are only 98 questions in the test! But if you read a few more books, you will know that there is one or two more tests ahead, and perhaps the cube itself is also a test? At this time, it is absolutely stupid to take this cube.
Thea stood still and shook her head, "I don't want to!"
"Really, there is the truth of the universe in this!"
"Don't!"
The blonde doppelganger sighed and put away the golden cube and parchment, "You have passed the last test, come and get your real reward." ”
After speaking, she stretched out her hand to wipe the space, and a pool of blue lake water suddenly appeared in the dark room.
The water ripples, this is not the so-called mountain spring water in modern society, it is clear and transparent, the water contains bursts of vitality, with the slight undulation of the water waves, it seems that you can still hear the sound of the lake hitting the shore, and smell the fragrant fragrance that moves the waves.
"What is this?" Thea was finally a little moved, she didn't expect the blonde Morgan Le Fay to answer her, because from the source of the bloodline she recognized the water of the lake, which was part of the elven kingdom of Avalon, the habitat of the goddess of the lake.
Unlike the Avalon she had summoned that day, it was just an illusion projected from a distant space, and it didn't even embody a hundredth of its power.
The pool in front of her, which was only the size of a few people hugging, looked like a small part of the original area, but the magic contained in it seemed to be pouring out something to her.
This is real, or rather, Morgan Le Fay has taken a part of the past timeline and put it in the present world, in front of Thea's eyes.
Such a miraculous method is obviously not a joke to do it himself, this is King Arthur's sister, who fought with him all her life, but at the last moment of King Arthur's life, Morgan Le Fay, who returned to Avalon on his back, left a gift personally.
Anyone who knows a little about King Arthur's story knows that after the Sword of Stone broke, he was guided by Merlin to obtain the Sword of the Lake from the Goddess of the Lake in Avalon.
That is, the widely spread Sword of Victory and Oath, Thea felt her heart beating a little too fast, and quickly looked back at the blonde Morgan Le Fay clone, hoping for some guidance.
Thea's previous "lost" gems many times were still very valuable, and the blonde eldest sister, who had short hands, scratched her hair, nodded heavily at her, and made a throwing motion.
And then the goddess ran out, is this your lost golden axe? This story doesn't seem to be set in England, right?
Thea was a little stumped.
After she "lost" three more gems, Tease Bis whispered to her, "You have to show the goddess of the lake your faith and courage." After that, she ran away, apparently as far as she could reveal.
Confidence and courage?Thea thought that the lake was shallow, and it should not be a test of superficial courage such as jumping in, nor the honest quality of a golden axe or a silver axe.
Then there is only one result, the courage and perseverance of willingness.
A gem was thrown into the lake, and the lake spat out as fast as the skin of a grapevine, and it was clear that people didn't want it.
Thea tried daggers, swords, shields, bracers, helmets, and a host of other modern items. Except for the sword, everything else was rejected.
It's a sword, isn't it? Thea was a little frightened and threw several long swords in the space ring into it, the lake was just bulging for a while, and the song of the banshee could be faintly heard, she was also a woman, she was completely immune to these songs, but the other party's meaning was very clear, continue!
Thea took out a long sword engraved with a magic array from the ring, which was a gift she was going to give to Damian for his eighth birthday, and the sword body was made by Diana, and Thea drew the magic circle with her own hands, and its own sharp skills were almost indestructible.
Throwing it in with a "whew", the lake was filled with cheerful emotions, but the expected goddess of the lake still did not appear.
Thea took out a few more swords that the Cold Flame Holy See had paid tribute to, some of which made the wearer more attractive, some of which were automatically invisible in her hand, and some of which could breathe underwater for the sword-wielder.
The distressed blood was thrown into it one by one, and the lake was already showing signs of boiling, and several faint whirlpools were forming, but they still owed some key forces.
Thea felt that her blood pressure was a little high, and there were only three swords left in her hand, which were the fake sword of killing gods obtained from Paradise Island, the real name was the Ares Death Sword, the nameless magic sword forged by the demons, and the Merlin sword.
The sword of the god killer is rarely used these days, and it bears the brunt of sacrifice when it comes to sacrifice, but Thea thinks of her relationship with Diana, and this sword is now more symbolic than practical.
The magic sword is also very rare in battle, Thea values its absorption ability and high quality, this sword is a key prop to deal with Black Adam in the future to absorb his divine power, and it must not be abandoned at present.
Then the only choice seems to be the only choice left is the Merlin Sword, this sword that faintly echoes her bloodline, and the hint of luck contained in it makes Thea just taste the sweetness, and she doesn't want to give up.
Is this a test of courage? The sword of the god of murder symbolizes feelings, the magic sword represents the future, and the sword of Merlin is luck, and she must make a choice between the three swords.
After several ideological struggles, Thea still made the final decision, the strong need affection, they need the future, but they don't need to be lucky.
Will Doom Day let you go because you are lucky? The earth is pierced, what is the use of luck, reason tells her that it seems that it is easiest to abandon feelings, pay small and gain big.
Thea shook her head, feelings were necessary for her as an individual, it was easy to abandon, but the price was simply too great.
The feelings here are not simply love and affection, but all emotions, abandon love today, abandon family and friendship tomorrow, and in the end she will have nothing left. Feelings, as the fetters of an intelligent life, are not bondage, they are the source of strength, and they are the initial starting point of all thinking.
If she just wanted to survive at first, then today, feelings are the cornerstone of her hard work, the driving force to climb the peak, without those relatives and lovers, what is the meaning of being invincible in the world?
