Chapter 63: Avalon's Journey (5)
Looking at the lake as calm as her own state of mind, Leah waited quietly, her almost demonic intuition reminding her that the lake of elves at this time was definitely not as calm as it suggested.
Sure enough, after a while, the mirror-like surface of the lake suddenly rippled like a pebble. Immediately afterwards, the ripples became more and more numerous, and it no longer seemed to be natural, only to see thousands of sparkling waves with the center of the lake as the center, spreading towards the surroundings.
Gradually, it was not just the ripples that spread, but a small whirlpool formed in the middle of the lake, and the waves crashed against the shore. Slowly, when the whirlpool subsided, I saw that a vacuum zone with a diameter of about one meter was formed in the center of the lake.
Staring closely at the center of the lake, Leah had a hunch that something was going to come out of nowhere, and it was something very close to her. Because of this feeling of blood connection, as if they have known each other since ancient times, Ria has only felt it from one object, that is, the sword of the king - the sword of the stone that has achieved the name of the king of Leah.
Now that this indescribable feeling had reappeared in her heart, there was only one explanation, and the only thing that could make her feel this feeling, apart from the sword in the stone, was the sword of victory of the oath and the scabbard that had achieved her peerless glory in the second half of Queen Arthur's life.
really
A white and tender hand suddenly stretched out from the heart of the sword, although it was only imaginable, but Liya and the others were all attracted by the object in their hands.
It was a sword with a scabbard, the hilt was also gold and blue like a sword in the stone, but it was not as gorgeous as the sword in the stone, and the color style of the square gave people a sense of decency, just like the knight's rigorous and serious, no wonder later generations would call this sword the symbolic sword of the knight, in terms of appearance, it did live up to the legendary reputation.
Because the sword body is in the scabbard, it is impossible to get a glimpse of its full appearance, but the faint release of coercion shows that it definitely deserves the reputation of 'the strongest sword of mankind' in later generations.
Compared to the hidden sword, the scabbard that is completely exposed to the eyes of everyone is even more eye-catching. The gold texture, decorated with dazzling blue enamel, and the engraving in the center is a long-lost fairy script, proving that this swordsman was not a handicraft made by human hands. Such luxurious equipment is not so much a weapon as a treasure such as a crown and a scepter that shows the majesty of a nobleman.
However, at the moment when the hand of the lake raised the sword out of the lake, Ria suddenly felt that somewhere in her body, there was something restless, as if she wanted to break through Liya's body and appear in the world, that feeling made Liya very uncomfortable, as if her body was about to be squeezed hard.
With this discovery, Liya knew that the sword spirit in her body, which was originally sealed, had awakened under the stimulation of the body's breath, and now it was about to break through the seal that Gaia had placed on it.
Thinking of this, Liya put her mind at ease, she knew that the sword spirit in her body would not harm her, and now this feeling of her body as if it was about to be torn apart was just an illusion caused by the sword spirit breaking through the seal in her body.
Moreover, once the sword spirit breaks through the seal under Gaia, then it will inevitably merge with the EXcalibur in front of him, so after the sword spirit that originally had great power itself and the complete sword of oath victory fused, then it will inevitably make the original power one step further, and the power of the two swords will be superimposed, will it be as simple as death one plus one equals two?
Furthermore, after the fusion of the two, the sanity of the sword spirit will inevitably continue, so how powerful will the EXcalibur power be with the sanity?
Thinking of this, Liya was excited, after all, the more power she has, the more confident she is in the future.
Seeing the little hand that handed the sword to her eyes, Liya hurriedly sorted out her thoughts, eliminated the distractions in her mind, maintained a calm state of mind, and reached out to take the sword.
Gently passing through the sword and scabbard from the lake elf, looking at the flawless thing in front of her, Leah did not dare to underestimate it in the slightest.
Although the Sword of Victory of the Oath is powerful, its scabbard is more valuable than its sword, and the one who wears the scabbard of the King's Sword will never bleed, which is already a bug, for Leah, as long as she has the scabbard, she will be similar to a perpetual motion machine, completely invincible.
"King. Just as Leah was looking at the object in her hand, Merlin's voice suddenly sounded in her ears.
"What's the matter, Mr. Merlin?"
"If the sword and the scabbard were the same, what would you choose?" Merlin said lightly. Although the tone was indifferent, Leah still saw an inexplicable expectation in his eyes.
After Merlin's question, Leah finally remembered.
Legend has it that Merlin once asked King Arthur. "If the sword and the scabbard were the same, which one would you choose?" replied Arthur, "I am determined to have a sword." Merlin sighed, "It's a fool's choice, the value of the scabbard is far greater than the sword!" "Yes, the sword does have the power to slay enemies, but the sheath that can protect itself is the most precious. In the same way, it is important to destroy evil, but if a king does not realize the value of guarding stability and peace, the result can only be destruction......
Sure enough, Arthur was mortally wounded in the decisive battle with Mordred, and he was sent to the Elven Land lying on a small boat. Arthur's time came to an end, and Excalibur disappeared forever into the tranquil depths of the lake......
"Mr. Merlin. Instead of answering Merlin's question directly, Leah turned to look at Merlin and shouted.
"What's wrong?"
"How can true peace be achieved?" asked Leah, staring into Merlin's eyes.
Merlin was slightly stunned by Leah's question, and then smiled knowingly as if he had thought of something, "So, have you already decided?"
"Yes, what the country needs is eternal peace, and as a guarantee, all the factors that can threaten this peace will be destroyed, and the holiness of the sheath will be defended by the sword. "Firm as a vow.
With Leah's vow-like words, the sword spirit in her body, which had been restless all the time, suddenly quieted down, and then Liya felt a warm current in her heart, which slowly flowed down her body into her body, dispelling the exhaustion and dark wounds in her body.
Looking at the girl who exuded infinite power, Merlin smiled with satisfaction.
So, come on. Although the future direction is interfered with, let me see how much you can change.
Suddenly, there were ripples on the surface of the lake, which had been calm since Leah got the sword.
"Let's go. Seeing this, Merlin's face changed drastically, and he pulled Liya in a panic to leave.
"Don't you want to see me so much?" but at this time, a voice full of resentment sounded in the rear.
"How so? Vivien, long time no see. Merlin stiffened when he heard this, and knew that he couldn't run away, so he had to turn around and say hello awkwardly.
"Mom. Lancelot was unusually happy to see the woman, and exclaimed with a smile.
"Lancelot, it looks like you've done what I said. Vivien glanced at Lea, then smiled at Lancelot.
"Hmm. ”
However, Leah and Bedwell looked at Merlin with strange eyes, and then looked at Vivien, who looked unusually old and beautiful, and they really couldn't figure out how Merlin's sloppy appearance made this beautiful elf fall in love.
"Ahem, Weiwei'an, what's the matter with you?" Merlin was uncomfortable when he was seen by the strange gaze of Liya and the two, and he had no choice but to stiffen his hair and ask Vivian, who was looking at him resentfully.
"Can't you come out if you don't have something?" Wei Wei'an's tone became even more resentful, like a little woman who had been abandoned by her husband and had no choice.
"Ahem" Merlin had nothing to say, so he had to cough more violently to hide his embarrassment.
"Forget it. Seeing this, the beautiful lake elf Vivien shook her head helplessly and said. Then he looked at Ria and said, "The Queen wants to see her." ”
"What?" Merlin exclaimed, looking surprised. This is not to blame him for making a fuss, after all, the elf queen is not something that everyone can see, even if it is an elf living on this island, he may not be able to see the elf queen once in his life. It's such an existence, but now he wants to see Leah, how can he not be surprised?
Liya was also quite surprised, she didn't expect the elf queen to see her, which really surprised her. Then it's time to think about the other person's purpose.
"Come with me. Vivien didn't care about the doubts of the two, and after saying a word, she turned and walked forward.
"Let's go. Glancing at the beautiful back in front of him, Merlin said helplessly.
"Bedwell, you and Lancelot are here for a moment. Leah commanded the two behind her. Then he and Merlin followed Vivien in front of him.
