118 The Legend of the Nymph in the Lake
The legend of Merlin has two major branches in the ever-changing version of British legends.
One is that Merlin fell in love with Vivien, the fairy of the lake, and swore that he would never cast a spell on Vivien in order to pursue her, and Vivian, who was tired of Merlin's pursuit, finally found an opportunity to seal Merlin in the stone, and because of Merlin's oath, he could not get out of the stone.
The other is that Vivian, the fairy in the lake, and Morgan the witch are both disciples of Merlin, and there is a subtle love triangle between them, and Vivien and Morgan are also enemies because of this matter, and because of Merlin's romantic character, gradually this hatred is also transferred to Merlin's body, and the final result is still that Merlin is sealed in the stone and cannot get out.
Anyway, Merlin ended up being sealed in stone.
Similarly, no matter which version it is, it is inseparable from the love-hate entanglement between Merlin, the magician of flowers, and Vivien, the fairy of the lake.
If Merlin was not killed by the king, but hid himself in a hidden place, then there is only one possibility in that place.
The ideal hometown of eternity - Avalon, the inner sea of the planet.
Obviously, if Merlin was hiding there, Larry would not be able to reach it anyway, after all, with his strength, he would not be able to find the location of Avalon, nor could he go to Avalon, which is one of the highest mysteries.
However, if Vivien, the fairy of the lake, can be found, there may be a chance to ask her to open the door to Avalon, so that Larry may be able to go to Avalon.
It's just that finding the fairy in the lake is also difficult to do, and even if he sees the other party, Larry doesn't seem to have any way to get the other party's help, after all, even in the matter of the fall of Britain, the most fairy in the lake is only to hand over the Star Sword to King Arthur, and nothing else has been done.
And it's very likely that Merlin manipulated that incident from behind.
Therefore, Larry can know that the attitude of the fairy in the lake towards Britain can only be said to be ignorant, and there is no idea of this at all.
At this time, Cú Chulainn needs to appear, although it is difficult to say who has higher flirting skills between him and Merlin, but it is still an improper method.
Feeling anxious and uncertain, Larry sets out on a journey to find the fairy of the legendary lake.
The caravan continued to move forward, but the people in the front seats had changed.
On the left, Cú Chulainn lazily put his legs outside, admiring the endless scenery of the plain, while the guide who led the way, Ruud, who knew him in the bar, was more restrained and sat timidly.
Larry let out a long sigh of helplessness, compared to the time when he went to Connaught before, he felt much worse now, and because of his sloppy life all year round, Ruud would have a faint smell from time to time.
This also makes Larry understand why the other party wants to get a fixed residence, and it seems that he has been wandering for too long, hoping to have a stable home.
Because the king did not accept the holy sword, but chose the holy spear as his weapon, and the legend of the fairy in the lake was not as prosperous as in Ryry's time, so when Ryry asked about the fairy in the lake, Ruud thought it was amazing.
How could anyone be interested in such a little-known legend?
You know, in this era, the fairy in the lake is a legend that even bards can't sing, and only these villagers who live in the villages next to the lake know about it.
Although Larry had never seen the king use the holy spear, he didn't even need to ask the others to know this, if the king chose the Star Sacred Sword as his weapon, then her physical development would stagnate, and she would definitely not have such a big heart, which was also a rule of the Moon World.
Therefore, the judgment drawn from this is that the fairy of the lake did not give the holy sword to the king, and she did not even appear in front of the king.
This may also be due to Merlin's influence.
In short, if Merlin is not dead, then the Nymph of the Lake is the only point that Larry can start with, and if this point cannot be found, then there is no way to talk about solving the mutation in Britain.
Of course, even if you find this point, it will be quite difficult to deal with.
Ruud's village was not far from Camelot, so the knights would let the villagers take refuge in Camelot, but in fact because their village was in the direction of Camelot, if the French army attacked here, either they would have detoured or Camelot had fallen.
To be honest, the village is not very large, the large number of trees limits the expansion of the village, although there is clear water and fertile land, but it is located in the middle of the forest, there is no way to cultivate the fields, and there are many creatures, and it is not very suitable for human habitation in general.
Ruud, on the other hand, was accustomed to hunting prey from the forest and picking fruits, which led to the construction of a fence on the outskirts of the village, making it look like a forest cottage.
Originally, there were only a dozen families in this village, but after they were all evacuated to Camelot, the village was considered deserted.
Considering the problem of carrying capacity, the villagers did not take all their belongings with them when they left, and a large amount of fruit and prey were left behind, but because of the long-term lack of people, in the warm forest, the fruit had long since rotted, and the flesh and blood of the prey had long been gone.
Even when I entered the village, I encountered a few wild wolves that used this place as a nest.
Cu Chulainn, who had the magic spear, cleaned up these wild wolves by dividing them by two, and then the three of them carried out some repair and cleaning work on the cottage until the evening, when they finally had time to go to the lake to see the situation.
Led by Rudd, Larry and Cú Chulainn bypassed the complex terrain of the woods and followed a babbling stream to the lake where it headed.
The sparkling surface of the lake, glowing in the setting sun, is not small, and from Larry's point of view, you can barely see the other side of the lake, and if the lake were larger, it could even be said to be an inland sea.
And here, too, is where the legend of the fairy in the lake is located.
After Larry got a good idea of the situation around the lake, it was already night, and the stars in the night sky were printed upside down on the lake, which looked quite beautiful.
However, Larry was not in the mood to appreciate the sight, and after making their first exploration, they returned to the village.
Tomorrow is the official beginning, and it will not be easy to talk to the fairy of the lake and let her open the door to Avalon.
