Chapter 149: The Sword of the Lake Maiden (Asking for Tickets, Asking for Rewards, Asking for Subscriptions)
"Wayne, how are you feeling?"
The battle was still going on, the effect of the intermediate healing potion was very good, and after Triss woke up, she saw Wayne who was holding herself in her arms, saw the man's pale face and the blood on the corner of his mouth, and wanted to reach out and touch his face with some weakness.
When Wayne noticed it, he immediately reached out and grabbed the sorceress's palm, took out a bottle of intermediate healing potion from his waist bag, and fed it mouth-to-mouth to the red-haired beauty, whose face was still a little pale.
Only when Triss's face had become better did he lift her body and let Triss lean against his chest, so that his eyes could see the battle not far away, and explained:
"It's almost over, and the evil god clone is about to be unable to support it."
Hearing this, Triss raised her eyes and saw that in the depths of the underwater palace, the evil god clone with a height of nearly five meters was already very miserable at this time, most of the tentacles on the octopus's head had been cut off, and the black skin was full of wounds caused by freezing and sword blades, and the flesh and blood on many parts had been cut off, leaving only the bones exposed.
The six witchers besieging it, although they looked very embarrassed, they still very resolutely surrounded the evil god clone, throwing a north wind bomb from time to time, using the powerful cold air to freeze the monster's body and restrict its behavior, while others took the opportunity to rush up and slash at its body desperately.
And whenever the doppelganger broke free from the ice and wanted to wave his tentacles and arms to attack a witcher, Kayla would immediately release a shield to block the god's attack, allowing the witcher to run away.
And when the evil god wants to attack the sorceress, the witches will rush up and shoot at its body, so that it has no time to pursue the sorceress.
The two sides cooperated tacitly, and used scraping a little bit to successfully beat the evil god clone into a serious injury.
It's a pity that this time the combat environment is underwater, and the lethality of both lightning magic and fire magic is severely limited, and no one can make a final decision and give the evil god a fatal blow.
Although the body of the evil god has been slashed by the sword of the demon hunter, there are wounds everywhere.
But its huge size and strong resilience still allowed it to hold on, and it fought a war of attrition with everyone.
Wayne is also very anxious, now Triss is seriously injured, Kayla is also assisting the demon hunters in the battle, and only Yennefer is alone to support the underwater barrier, and now it has become very difficult.
Although it seems that the demon hunters have the upper hand now, if it drags on any longer, it will be difficult to say whether the winner will be won or lost.
Seeing this situation, Wayne quickly thought about countermeasures, if hard power didn't work, he could only rely on foreign objects, and soon, he thought of the attack props in his storage bag and had an idea.
He let go of Triss and pulled out the storage bag on his chest, from which he pulled out five Detonators from the Hokage World and a Burst Arrow from the Diablo World, as well as the Elven Shortbow that Torruviel had given him.
Wrap five Detonators around the tip of the Burst Arrow like stickers.
Wayne held on to his physical discomfort, stood up and walked to the edge of the underwater barrier, picked up the elven shortbow, took the bow and shot the arrow, made an aiming gesture, and aimed the tip of the arrow at the evil god clone who was still fighting the trapped beast, and shouted to his demon hunter brothers:
"Give me a chance to open this monster's mouth."
Hearing Wayne's voice, everyone didn't even think about it, and immediately chose to cooperate, Lambert and Eskel were desperately injured, desperately rushed to the feet of the monster, aimed at its knee and slashed out a sword, directly slashing the body of the evil god out of balance, and one staggered to the ground.
Viselmir and George, after putting on a layer of Quinn shield, directly pushed into front of the monster, and used the steel sword in their hands and the monster's two claws to fight hard, and they were all violently knocked out by the huge force.
Geralt took this opportunity to jump directly into the face of the evil god, kicked the evil god's eyes fiercely with both feet, and slashed the sword in his hand directly at the evil god's jaw, so that the monster could no longer hold on, and finally opened his mouth and let out a terrifying roar.
Facing the open mouth, Wayne immediately seized this opportunity, pulled the elven shortbow to the limit, and the bursting arrow in his hand turned into an afterimage, leaving a white trail in the lake, with five detonation charms, flying directly into the evil god's huge mouthparts.
"Get out of the way, Geralt."
After shooting the bow and arrow, Wayne only had time to shout this sentence, and immediately fell to his knees with a sour body, he was so badly injured that he could shoot this arrow only because of his strong will.
As an old fritter, the white wolf Geralt didn't need Wayne's reminder at all, and together with several other witchers, after the bow and arrow were shot into the evil god's mouthparts, he immediately moved away from the evil god's body as quickly as possible.
The five Detonators and the explosive arrows with blasting power are truly impressive.
When the poor god clone thought that he was finally free from the entanglement of the demon hunter and could kill him with pleasure, a violent explosion erupted from its mouth.
Accompanied by a shock wave formed by a wave of water, the powerful implosion ability directly blew the octopus head of the evil god apart like a watermelon.
Red, black, purple, and unknown flesh and blood were like dye thrown into the water, directly dyeing the surrounding waters a dark color.
But before the crowd could feel the joy of this victory, Yennefer cried out:
"Kayla, come and replace me, I can't hold on anymore."
Unfortunately, Kayla, who had been fighting the evil god for a long time, no longer had the magic power to support the underwater barrier, so she did not open her mouth to explain, nor did she take Yenefa's place, but immediately made a decision and finished reciting a spell at a very fast speed.
As her spell ended, a portal that seemed to cut a crack in the void appeared directly in the underwater barrier, less than a meter in front of Yennefer.
Seeing this, everyone didn't need to listen to her explanation, they immediately understood what to do, and swam towards the location of the portal as fast as they could.
And Wayne didn't care about his gentlemanly demeanor at this time, he bothered his body, walked quickly to Triss's side, held the petite sorceress in his arms, and took the lead in getting into the portal.
The exit of the portal is not far from underwater, and is set up on Black Tern Island in the center of the lake.
Wayne and Triss had just landed, and soon, Vismerere, Lambert, Askell, Belengar, and Kayla and George stumbled out of the portal.
It wasn't until the end, after more than ten seconds, that when Kayla's portal was about to hold on, Geralt held Yenephar, who was also unconscious due to overcasting, and flew out and fell.
………………
When Wayne awoke again, he found that he was not in Virgin's house, nor in some sorceress's bed, but in the lake in the woods that was as beautiful as a fairyland.
Dressed in a veil as thin as a cicada's wings, the beautiful and holy Goddess of the Lake sat beside him, curled up with her legs curled up, and hummed a moving melody softly in a sideways position.
The white hands, like works of art, gently caressed his bare chest, and the invisible divine power was healing the wounds in his body.
When he opened his eyes, the goddess of the lake looked at Wayne with her clear blue eyes, and with a gentle and holy smile on her face, she stopped humming and said in an ethereal voice:
"You're awake, my warrior."
"The clone of the evil god Dagang has been destroyed by you."
"You have fulfilled your promise and accomplished a noble feat that can be recorded in poetry."
Bite! The master quest [Destroy the Evil God Clone] has been completed.
Gain: 450 XP and a Master Chest.
Hearing the emotionless system prompt in his head, Wayne sat up in a trance.
It wasn't until he sat up that he found himself naked, the injuries in his body had healed, and a gentle force was slowly circulating in his body, making him feel extremely comfortable.
And his body, under the influence of some force, like the goddess of the lake, floated on the surface of the lake, as if lying on the most comfortable bed.
"Your Excellency, what about my companions?"
Wayne shook his head to make himself more awake, and then, in a dry voice, asked:
"How long have I been unconscious?"
When the goddess heard this, she took some water from the lake in both hands, put it to his mouth, motioned for him to drink it, and then said:
"Don't worry, my warrior, you were only in a coma for one night, and the Fisherman King found you who were injured and sent you to me, who was seriously injured."
"And your companions are resting outside the forest, and they are safe."
With that, the Goddess of the Lake stood up from the water and displayed her flawless body in front of Wayne, who beckoned softly to the lake beside her, as if calling for something.
Soon, under Wayne's gaze, a two-handed sword with a gorgeous blue scabbard slowly rose from the lake.
The goddess stroked her hand over the sword, and did not draw the sword, but said in a chanting tone:
"My warrior, you have fulfilled your promise, accomplished feats that are difficult for humans to accomplish, and eradicated the minions of the evil gods who poisoned the world."
"If you are willing to pledge to cut down more evil for this world, protect justice and courage, and maintain the peace of the world, this sword will be my gift to you."
"It will be your most loyal partner, your staunchest guardian, and what I expect from you."
"This sword is called Victory of the Oath, and it is a sword worthy of any warrior."
