Chapter 98 The Gift of the Goddess
The goddess of the lake was still so indifferent and holy. She opened her red lips and said softly: "
Please tell me your questions, my warrior."
Wayne was not polite when he heard this. As a time traveler, He may be in awe of gods, devils, evil gods and the like, but it is more out of recognition of their strength.
But most of them just regard them as more powerful advanced beings, and will not really blindly worship or fear them like believers.
Wayne organized his words and said:
"Your Majesty the Goddess, I have a companion, his name is Geralt. He once made a wish to a Djinn trapped in a magic lamp, and was connected to the fate of a sorceress. The sorceress's name is Yennefer."
Anyway, the goddess was not in a hurry now, so Wayne slowly told the story he knew about Geralt and Yennefer to the Lady of the Lake. Of course, He has not personally experienced many things, so he can only briefly add them based on the content of the novels he has read.
After talking about it, after the dragon hunting incident that just happened, Wayne had been observing the expression of the goddess and saw that she was just listening quietly without any impatience. Her originally calm blue eyes even Showing interest.
"So this poor lady has been obsessed with regaining her fertility and becoming a mother for decades." "
She has tried many methods and put in a lot of effort, but it still can't work." "
You are a kind and great god . , from ancient times to the present, many people have praised your good name, so I want to ask you for help. You may have a way to help this poor lady." "
Of course, Lady Goddess, I have always believed in equal exchange. I will always keep your help in mind. If you have any inconvenient little things, you can tell me and I will be willing to help you." When asking for help, Wayne tried his best to pick up nice words and take a look
. See if there are any quests that can be obtained from this goddess.
Anyway, no matter how the goddess responds, he will not suffer.
After listening to Wayne's request, the Lady of the Lake nodded gently, closed her beautiful eyes, and then remained silent for dozens of seconds. I wonder if she was using her ability to spy on the fate of Geralt and Yennefer.
When the Lady of the Lake opened her eyes again, the beautiful goddess frowned slightly, took a deep look at Wayne with her clear eyes, and said softly: "
My warrior, your companion and that The fate of the lady named Yennefer is full of variables and is closely related to the future of this world." "
What they do will even affect the direction of the world."
"Even I cannot interfere with their destiny at will. " However, you can tell them that in the not too distant future, a child of destiny will appear in their lives and be closely connected with their destiny. This may be the
wish they are pursuing."
With these, the Lady of the Lake seemed to show a hint of fatigue on her face.
Although I don’t know what kind of ability the goddess used to explore the fate of Geralt and Yennefer, this ability must have consumed a lot of money, and even the goddess of the lake would feel tired.
Wayne even speculated whether he had tricked the goddess with his request.
Geralt and Yennefer are important protagonists in the original novel, and their futures are indeed closely related, and may even indirectly affect whether Ciri will save the world.
In any case, the goddess also gave her answer. Although it was quite vague, it should be able to appease Yennefer's restless heart.
However, Wayne still asked softly:
"This Ms. Yennefer is waiting not far away. Do you want to see her?"
I don't know if it was an illusion, but when Wayne said these words , he even had a hallucination. The beautiful Lady of the Lake had her hands on her hips and rolled her eyes at him, looking rather disgusted.
But none of this happened. The goddess still looked that holy and beautiful. After hearing Wayne's question, the goddess just thought about it for two seconds, and then gently stretched out her finger, a snow-white pearl the size of a dove egg. , appeared in front of Wayne, standing in the air.
"Just give this pearl to her, and I will take care of the rest."
Wayne held the pearl in his hand and felt that the pearl was extremely beautiful. Not only was the surface smooth and round, it even exuded a slight fragrance. Fluorescent, when you hold it, your whole palm and even your soul become warm and peaceful.
After getting a good thing for free, Wayne did not continue to ask about this matter, but changed the topic to Ike. He told the goddess what Ike had done and some rumors about him.
Of course, it did not say what might happen to Ike's wife and children in the future. This is a secret that belongs to the time travellers, and it is impossible to let others know.
"Your Excellency, this Knight Ike, although he is rather reckless, old-fashioned, and a bit extreme." "
But what he does, compared with some so-called knights today, is undoubtedly more in line with the five virtues of knights, and can be regarded as a An excellent knight."
"I heard that a long time ago, you were the symbol of the five virtues of knighthood. This Knight of Ike admires the knightly martial virtues very much. I wonder if you are willing to save this confused soul and let the knight The brilliance of the Five Virtues once again shrouded his body."
Hearing this, the Lady of the Lake glanced at Wayne in surprise. Although what he said was quite subtle, the clever goddess instantly understood what Wayne meant.
However, the goddess seemed a little uninterested in Wayne's request.
Human beings are so fickle. Once upon a time, all knights respected the Five Virtues of Knighthood and regarded the five noble qualities of honor, wisdom, generosity, bravery, and compassion as their life pursuits and lifelong beliefs. During that time, The whole world is full of justice and peace.
She worked hard to maintain such a beautiful and happy world.
But this beauty did not last long. These powerful knights were soon swallowed up by negative emotions such as power, greed, jealousy, hatred, arrogance and so on. They began to fight each other for their own selfish desires, plunging the world into eternal chaos. In the endless war and killing.
All her previous efforts were in vain, which made her very disappointed with human beings. Gradually, she no longer showed miracles among humans. Most civilians had even forgotten this legend after giving up on human beings
. , the goddess of the lake shared her love with other intelligent races who were in greater need of help. Although they were not as smart and powerful as humans, they were purer and kinder.
Now I want her to do what happened hundreds of years ago again. The goddess said, I am tired and no longer trust her.
However, out of respect for Wayne, the goddess nodded slightly, then closed her eyes, and reopened them a few seconds later. Obviously, exploring Ike's fate was more difficult than exploring Geralt and Yennefer. Much more relaxed.
After she thought about it for a second or two, she said in that sweet and moving voice:
"I already know your request, my warrior."
"After I leave, you will sink Knight Ike into this lake. , the lake will heal his pain and cleanse his soul."
"He is indeed a good knight. I only hope that after I cure him, he can pass on more kindness and beauty to everyone in the world. "
After hearing the answer from the Lady of the Lake, Wayne couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart. He is really a kind and beautiful god. Let alone what he does to other people, he is really good to himself.
He responded to two requests in a row without asking for anything in return. Although some people have said that the gift of fate has already been marked with a secret price, but this feeling of taking the benefit first and paying the bill later is so satisfying.
The goddess's generosity and kindness actually made him feel a little embarrassed to make his third request.
However, men are generally thick-skinned. Wayne scratched his face in embarrassment and tentatively asked the Lady of the Lake:
"Your Excellency Goddess, I wonder if you can give me a blessing, the kind of blessing that can make me favored by good luck in a short period of time and become a lucky person." "Of course, it doesn't take long, it only takes one day
. , even for a short while."
After hearing Wayne's request, the beautiful Lady of the Lake frowned slightly and looked into Wayne's eyes, wondering why this little guy made such a request.
However, considering that Wayne already has a close relationship with Geralt and Yennefer, as well as his impact on the future of the world, as well as the investment he has made.
The beautiful goddess of the lake sighed quite humanely, stepped on the clear lake water, and walked slowly to Wayne.
She held Wayne's face with her slender palms as white as jade, and kissed him gently on the forehead. Then the whole figure turned into a stream of light and slowly disappeared. Only the sweet voice still lingered in Wayne's mind. 's ear.
"You have been blessed by me, my warrior, and you will be favored by good luck in the coming week."
