Chapter 41: The Misty Forest (End)
The Fairy Tower of the Lake
After the sacred scriptures reverberated from the church, a sacred ballad was sung in the church, which matched the sacred atmosphere in the church, which really made people feel serious at once.
But Catherine only had a bitterness in her heart, and the nine elders in the lake fairy tower ignored Catherine, which meant that Catherine could not become the high priest of Bretonnia nine times out of ten.
This...... Catherine was very saddened, and she had thought that she would definitely be able to become a high priest with the help of Lu En.
"In thirty minutes, we'll announce the next Grand Priest!" On the podium at the front of the church, the Fairy Priest began to pick up the speech.
The sound was like a hammer slamming down on Catherine's chest.
………………
The ghosts outside the forest roared wildly, screaming in the air with rage and hatred in their hearts, but it was as if an invisible net bound them, preventing them from getting close to Luen.
Lu En slowly walked towards the lake not far away, the Holy Grail of Bretonnia floating above the lake, and the rippling energy around it was the divine breath of the goddess Lilith.
It is rumored that only with the blessing of the goddess Lilith can one become the chosen one of Bretonnia.
And next to the lake is not only the Holy Grail and the Ethereal Goddess Blessing, but also a green knight.
Blue Knight.
The rumored knight to guard the Holy Grail.
"Go back, mortal, I don't want to kill you, Bretonnia can't live without you now." The Green Knight suddenly spoke.
But Lu En didn't look back, he walked towards the green knight next to the lake little by little according to the rhythm of his heart, even though the hideous ghost next to the forest was only about a meter away from him, he didn't retreat, even if he took every step, the road behind him was also lost in the fog.
He didn't take a step back.
Until he walked into the forest next to the lake.
The surrounding environment changed drastically, and a pale green wall of air silently intercepted Lu En's back path, and the wailing ghost flew into the forest excitedly.
"I wanted to spare your life, but now it's too late." The green knight said in a cold, emotionless voice.
Not bad, late.
Lu En's back path has been cut off, and the ghosts around him are hovering in the sky excitedly, rushing down to drink his blood if they don't pay attention.
In front, there are the Green Knight and the Holy Grail.
"Gilles Britton, the first king of Bretonnia." Lu En said lightly: "It is rumored that there is a person waiting for the Chosen One to approach next to the Holy Lake, so ...... I'm coming. ”
"I've been waiting for this day for too long."
Gilles said indifferently: "For thousands of years, countless people have been close to the Holy Lake, and they have all eventually become the nourishment of the Holy Grail. ”
The green knight rode on the pale green energy warhorse and waved his hand, only to see the spirits hovering in the sky with excitement let out a piercing scream, and then quickly landed on the ground.
These ghosts quickly coalesced into heavy infantry armed with long swords, tightly surrounding Lu En.
Gilles said indifferently: "I don't know where you heard the rumors of the Chosen One, there is no such legend in the Holy Lake. ”
"But...... Defeat me and gain the approval of the fairies of the lake, then you can become the king of Bretonnia! ”
The screams of the ghosts were raised to the maximum for a moment, and these froze into the walking feudal knights in armor, slowly moving closer to Lu En.
Lu En looked around, first of all, no matter how powerful the green knights not far away were, there were about thirty walking feudal knights around them, and it was probably very difficult to defeat these walking feudal knights.
"My sword ......" Lu En raised the sword of Torgard, which emitted a pleasant sword sound.
"I can feel that this sword is calling for the Holy Grail!"
Lu En's eyes stared at the Holy Grail above the Holy Lake not far away, the golden cup emitted a dazzling light, and it was rumored that those who drank the Holy Grail could pull out the sword in the stone.
Lu En didn't find the Sword in the Stone, but the Sword of Tolgard in his hand was calling him forward, and a feeling rose from Lu En's heart, as long as he got close to the Holy Grail, then the seal of the Sword of Tolgard would be lifted.
"Uhhh The feudal knights on foot came closer.
Lu En had already torn the encirclement network with a brisk step!
I saw Lu En knock a walking feudal knight to the ground with one person and one sword, and broke through the encirclement of the walking feudal knight with one step.
The walking feudal knight solidified by the ghost fell to the ground, turning into a cloud of smoke and dust, quickly dissipating into the air.
Lu En hurried towards the Holy Grail not far away.
The Green Knight drove his war horse and charged towards Lu En!
Sonorous!
A crisp sword snap cracked across the blade of Tolgard's sword.
Lu En only felt his arm go numb instantly.
He knew very well in his heart that he could not defeat the green knight by himself.
"You can't get the Holy Grail, you're too weak." The green knight still said in cold words.
"Gilles, you're wrong." Lu En turned to look at the green knight, he raised the sword of Torgard and pointed it at Gilles with the tip of the sword: "If you still have the slightest chivalry, let the ghosts around you retreat, you and I will fight alone!"
Gilles was silent, he looked at Lu En, and after a short while, he raised his hand: "You have this qualification!" ”
The surrounding walking feudal knights retreated, and these emerald green walking feudal knights, after seeing the gesture of the green knight, consciously retreated to the side of the forest, leaving a wide position for Lu En and the green knight's heads-up.
Lu En looked at Gilles indifferently with his sword, he was extremely calm in his heart, he must know that in the environment just now, this was the best choice, if he chose to continue to sprint towards the Holy Grail, then he would most likely be killed by the green knight.
"You're no match for me!" Gilles said indifferently.
The aura of fear had spread out from Gilles's body, as an emerald green aura emerged at Gilles' feet.
Lu En only felt that facing Gilles was like facing a desolate beast, and as long as this desolate beast sprinted towards him, he would break and flee.
"Not necessarily!" Lu En turned his back to the Holy Grail and pointed the sword of Torgard at the green knight: "Knights clash with each other, the odds of victory are unknown!" ”
Gilles was no longer talking, he drove his horse at Lu En to charge!
The perfect combination of the war horse and the knight condensed from Gilles's body to the highest apex in this moment, and behind the knight, there was only a gust of wind, and in front of the knight, the point of light of death appeared on the knight's spear.
No matter who looks at it, Lu En will definitely not be able to dodge this charge, as long as the two sides make a difference, Lu En will fall to the ground.
"Sword of Torgard!" Lu En roared angrily!
He aimed his sword at the blue knight's long sword and slashed it directly, and his mind was empty for a while.
Sonorous!
The blades intersect, and the fire is flying!
Lu En actually blocked it.
"The Sword of Tolgard Seal Lifted!" Gilles looked at the sword in Luen's hand with incredulous eyes!
As an undead, emotions are generally not shaken, but the emotions in Gilles's heart are excited right now, and he is actually shocked by the divine sword in Lu En's hand!
The light of the Holy Grail was great for a while, and the bright light made this Holy Grail floating in mid-air look like a sun.
"Now you know why I'm here to get the Holy Grail!" Lu En stepped back and withdrew from the Blue Knight's attack range: "This sword, calling me, this Holy Grail, calling me, the fairy of the lake, calling me, the people of Bretonnia, calling me." ”
"My will will reign over this land!" Lu En said in a puff.
It wasn't supposed to make Gilles stop attacking, but he saw something.
The sword of Tolgard in Luen's hand was burning with a pale red flame, and the golden lines were constantly flowing on the blade of the sword of Tolgard.
Of course, a sword alone could not make Gilles stop attacking, and what was even more exaggerated was that the Holy Grail floating in mid-air fell to the ground and landed on Luen's wrist at some point.
"The approval of the fairy of the lake!" Gilles gave up the idea of attacking.
Lu En glanced at the Holy Grail in his hand, but he did not drink the Holy Grail, because he had already drunk the Dark Holy Grail, and it was absolutely impossible for him to drink a bottle.
"O fairy of the lake, this is not enough, I am not here to seek the Holy Grail." Lu En shouted loudly.
His echo echoed through the forest, only startling the birds.
"Bretonnia is about to fall, and the sacrifice of the nymphs of the lake is about to disappear, is there still such a reason for you to show up?" Lu En shouted loudly, "I beg you...... No, not as I plead with you, but as the knight of Bretonnia, the spokesman of the people of Bretonnia, please show up. ”
The voice still echoed through the forest, but this time it responded.
"Are you pursuing my whereabouts so that I can admit that you are the Knight King?" The voice of Lilith, the fairy of the lake, echoed.
Lu En was silent for a moment: "I want you to admit that I am your spokesperson in the world." ”
"No, I refuse, my first choice is the Great Priest of the Fairy in the Lake."
"Then, I want you to admit that Catherine is the Grand Priestess of the Nymphs of the Lake."
"Why?"
"I will reign over Bretonnia, and I will rule over the Wood Elves!"
"It's not just empty words."
"What if I say this in my capacity as the regent of Bretonnia?"
“…… What do you want, the title of Knight King? ”
"No, I have already surpassed the Knight King, and I will take Bretonnia to an even more glorious level in the future."
"To what extent? Deviating from knighthood doesn't make Bretonnia more brilliant or great. ”
"Ruling this land, I will be the ruler of the world, and I will pay any price for it."
"Why rule this land?"
"Because...... It's a lifelong dream of mine and I'll pay anything for it, that's all. Lu En whispered, "Bretonnia is just the beginning, followed by the Wood Elves, then the Tomb King, Lilith the Nymph of the Lake, and I will be the most powerful monarch Bretonnia has ever seen." ”
"Arrogant boy, if it weren't for my unwillingness to have political turmoil in Bretonnia, you would have died under the sword of the Green Knight, why would you say such a thing."
The voice was ethereal, the words of the goddess Lilith floated in the mist, making people confused, and the faint mist in the forest made Lu En feel a little chilly.
Lu En stared at the sky, and he shouted loudly: "Lilith, the fairy of the lake, please bless me, only when I become strong can I resist chaos!" ”
"That's why."
Yes, that's the reason, there's no reason to mess around, if Bretonnia is still in chaos, when the Chaos army attacks, what kind of people need to appear to be able to resist Chaos.
Who else can lead the knights of Bretonnia to fight the Chaos Legion except Luen?
"I will recognize you, and all of Bretonnia will recognize you, but do not forget your promise that if you fail to get the Wood Elves to obey you, then you will be punished by God."
"Well, I assure you that there will be only one god in the future, and that is Lilith, the fairy of the lake, and all other evil gods will be completely destroyed." Lu En said lightly.
The fog of the forest gradually lifted, and the ghost that screamed in mid-air disappeared almost in an instant.
The green knight walked over to Lu En: "You really are a hero, you persuaded Lilith. ”
"Knight King, I will recognize you, and when you need my help, crush this stone!" The Green Knight handed a green stone to Luen's palm.
"The Knight King?" Lu En caught the stone: "I am the existence of the transcendent Knight King, and I need a more honorable title...... For example, the emperor, or the king of kings...... I am...... Demigods! ”
The figure of the green knight disappeared beside Lu En.
There was silence all around, except for the call of Tankred not far away.
Lu En looked at the white tower not far away, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes!~
……………… Gorgeous dividing line..................
The pine forests of Carcassonne are a sight to be found in the south of Bretonnia, and whenever a fresh breeze blows, there is always a "whooshing" sound.
However, around the Great Temple of the Nymphs in the Lake, the scenery of this pine forest is about to fade a lot, and the silver tower will always attract people's first glance in the emerald green pine forest.
"Bell!"
This is the bell of the tower, and today is the day to elect the fairy priest of the lake.
The main temple was solemn and sacred, and everyone waited for the final oath to be taken, even if it was a few very popular candidates, they were praying in their hearts that they would be elected.
Presiding over this election was the Grand Priest Anne, the nine elders of the most feminine in the lake, she was already seventy years old, but under the nourishment of the divine power, she was now like a little girl of seventeen or eighteen.
She cleared her throat, and just as she was about to announce her candidacy, she suddenly heard someone outside shouting, "Someone is breaking into the Great Temple!" ”
