Chapter Seventy-Four: The Holy Grail

Seeing that Wayne agreed, the fisherman king didn't talk nonsense, glanced at the little earth spirit couple Cruz and Angela, and then took the firewood knife and walked in a direction in the center of Black Tern Island.

Cruze apologetically dragged his son Fiz to Wayne with magic, and saluted:

"Excuse me, Mr. Wayne, please take my child and go to meet the Goddess."

"The goddess will surely lift his curse."

Wayne turned his head to look at Lala, who was very excited and nervous because he could go to meet the goddess in person.

Her small body really couldn't carry her brother, so she nodded, carried Fitz, who had changed into a fur suit, to her shoulders, and took Lala to keep up with the Fisherman King.

At this time, it was already about two or three o'clock in the morning, walking on Black Tern Island, in addition to the sound of insects chirping in the grass, I could occasionally hear the call of some wild beasts in the distance.

The fisherman king didn't say a word, but walked quickly in one direction with a firewood knife, and Wayne also guessed the old man's dull character, so he didn't talk to him, but saw that the little guy was walking with short legs, and it was quite difficult to get up and going, so he simply hugged her in his arms, so as not to fall behind.

The little one's eyes were shining, and after thanking Wayne, he looked at the fisherman king who walked in front a little nervously, as if he was afraid that the old man would suddenly disappear and make her lose the opportunity to meet the goddess.

Obviously, being able to meet the goddess of the lake is a very meaningful thing for her.

In this way, the group of four walked in the dark for about half an hour, and the fisherman king led them through a field, and then entered the forest, until they came to the depths of the forest, by a beautiful and clear lake, and then stopped.

It is a small lake with a crystal clear view, surrounded by various vegetation and rocks, and sometimes fish swim and some gentle animals such as fawns and rabbits drink by the lake.

The cold moonlight shines down, reflected by the lake water into a hazy fluorescence, and the reflection of the surrounding scenery in the lake water is like a fairyland on earth.

The fisherman king stood on the shore and said nothing, but silently knelt on one knee, bowed his head to the lake, and prayed silently.

After more than ten seconds, the clear water of the lake suddenly fluctuated, and a beautiful girl with an extremely beautiful face, naked, and only a layer of light veil like moonlight, slowly rose from the lake and gradually floated into the air.

She has sky-blue eyes, long golden hair like wheat waves, and a gentle and holy smile on her face, as if she is a fairy descending from mythology, and exudes an otherworldly beauty all over her body.

After seeing Wayne and his party, the goddess's naked feet slowly fell to the surface of the lake, and she moved her steps and slowly walked towards them.

Looking at the beautiful and holy goddess of the lake in front of him, looking at her flawless girlish body, Wayne didn't even have any desire in his heart, only felt a clear spring pouring into his heart, making him feel extremely comfortable from soul to body.

The goddess of the lake slowly walked to Wayne's side, reached out and placed her jade-white palm on the little earth spirit Fiz on his shoulder, and gently recited a spell in a moving voice like a breeze and drizzle.

A few seconds later, an invisible force lifted Fitz, causing the little creature cursed by the evil god to fly off his shoulders and slowly descend into the clear waters.

After entering the lake, Fitz, who had been in a coma, seemed to be receiving some kind of purifying power, and his whole body began to tremble slightly, and some black juice began to overflow from various parts of his body, as if something malicious was expelled from his body, and then dissipated in the lake.

"This is the tainted ritual of the evil god Dagang, which uses the power of the offspring to infuse the seeds of evil into the bodies of other beings, transform their bodies, pollute their souls, and eventually, these creatures will become his slaves and help him invade more places."

The voice of the goddess in the lake was like the melodious song of the forest in the early morning, Wayne raised his head when he heard this, looked at the goddess's eyes as clear as the lake, ethereal and sacred, pondered for a few seconds, and asked:

"Your Excellency Goddess, I wonder why you invited me here?"

A gentle smile appeared on the beautiful face of the goddess, and she looked into Wayne's eyes and whispered:

"Warrior, it is a noble deed that you have helped my followers defeat the priests of the evil god Dagan, disrupt its rituals, and cut off its minions."

"However, without your knowledge, you have been watched by the evil god, and it has left an evil mark on you."

"As soon as you approach the seashore, close to the area it controls, you will suffer endless revenge from the evil gods."

After saying this, the goddess of the lake stretched out her slender palm, which was as white as jade, and a golden chalice inlaid with twelve huge gems slowly rose from the water of the lake, and was then held by the goddess with both hands on her chest.

A fragrant fragrance slowly emanated from the liquid in the Holy Grail.

She handed the chalice to Wayne and whispered:

"Your good deeds should not be retaliated against by evil gods."

"Warrior, please drink the holy water in the cup, it will remove the evil god mark from your body, repair many damage in your body, and make your body stronger."

"This is my reward for you."

Looking at the holy water in the legendary Holy Grail, Wayne felt that his body was sending a signal of extreme longing, as if the liquid in that cup was extremely beneficial to his body.

However, Wayne was a little hesitant in his heart.

Although the goddess of the lake is a kind and noble god in legend, wouldn't it be too imprudent to accept the gifts from the gods at will?

But soon, Wayne dispelled this idea, he is now just a demon hunter who has just come out of school, although he has a little strength, but he is definitely not strong, compared with those powerful mages who can call the wind and rain and move mountains and reclaim the sea, he can only be called a more advanced thug.

A goddess who has lived for thousands of years, there is no need to use a conspiracy to murder him, perhaps this goddess is also a smart person who knows how to invest, and will invest in him in advance when she sees his potential.

Thinking of this, Wayne respectfully took the Holy Grail with both hands, smelled the fragrant holy water in the Holy Grail, and slowly lifted the Holy Grail as if he was drinking peerless wine.

When the liquid in the Holy Grail flowed into his body, Wayne only felt a warm current like the morning sun, flowing down his throat into his body, and then slowly spreading to all parts of his body.

He couldn't help but close his eyes, and a feeling of comfort that he had never felt before came to him, as if all his limbs had been given a chance to regrow, and all the cells in his body made a sound of satisfaction.

Maybe it's a few minutes, maybe it's dozens of minutes, when Wayne opened his eyes again, he instantly felt that his five senses had also been strengthened, whether it was hearing, smell, touch, or sight, the whole world seemed to become clearer.

He couldn't help but look at the system interface in his mind, and then couldn't help but gasp, he didn't expect that just by drinking a glass of holy water, he actually got a huge increase in all attributes plus five.

And as the goddess said, Wayne can clearly perceive that his body that has been subjected to various hidden damages during the grass trial period seems to have been repaired to some extent under the action of holy water, and the genes of his body have become more perfect.

Originally, in terms of physical fitness, he was not as good as Geralt, Lambert and Askell, who were seasoned witchers, and he could barely fight them by relying on the bonuses of the system.

Now, Wayne can be sure that even if he doesn't rely on the system's bonus, he can already be almost the same as those old witchers of the wolf school in terms of physical fitness.

Wayne respectfully handed the chalice back to the goddess of the lake, and felt a sense of gratitude to the generous and kind god.

To be honest, this commission to exterminate the Companion Fishman's lair can only be regarded as an ordinary thing for him, and even the mission level is only at the expert level, which is not too difficult at all.

But I didn't expect to be able to get such a rich gift, and I felt like I had won the jackpot.

Admiring the perfect and holy body of the goddess of the lake, Wayne felt that he must not forget this kindness in the future, and he must find an opportunity to repay the goddess for helping him.
