Chapter 99:
After the Statik Electric Blade and the Lady of the Lake left, Wayne couldn't help but stretch and let out a pleasant sigh. Time spent with this beautiful goddess was always so happy.
Although she is suspected of being a freeloader, this goddess is so generous and responds to all requests without asking for anything in return for the time being.
Holding the pearl given by the goddess, he came to Geralt and Yennefer and selectively told the two of them the goddess' prophecy, trying not to have any impact on their future due to spoilers. And gave the pearl to Yennefer.
The expressions of both of them were somewhat complicated. As demon hunters and sorceresses, they believed in fate and the power of prophecy more than those ordinary people who were stupid and ignorant and did not know the heights of the world.
Moreover, this fable comes from the legendary Lady of the Lake, who is known to be a kind and ancient deity.
In this world with magical power, individuals are often very small existences. The power of fate, whether you believe it or not, few people can change it.
Seeing that both of them were very thoughtful after hearing the prophecy, Wayne did not care about them anymore. Instead, he came to the crippled Knight Ike and told him about his request to the Lady of the Lake to save him.
This news made Ike very excited, and even abnormally expressed his gratitude to him, a demon hunter that he used to hate.
After chatting with him for a few words, Wayne discovered that this guy was more excited to see the legendary Lady of the Lake than to heal his injuries. His belief in the Five Virtues of Knights was far beyond that of ordinary people. understanding and seeing things as more important than life.
It is precisely because of this that Wayne feels that this guy may become the number one licker of the Lady of the Lake in the future. However, the kindness of the goddess may change his twisted paranoia and make him a truly noble person. Knight, maybe you can change the tragic fate of yourself and your family.
…………
Two days later, Wayne returned to Vizima City alone.
After discovering that he and Yennefer showed signs of getting back together, Geralt immediately abandoned his good brother, started the dog-licking mode, and prepared to follow Yennefer to find a commission near the city where the sorceress was located.
Of course, Wayne did not let his brother lose face. Although Borch's commission reward had not yet been given to him, he took out 1,500 Orens out of his own pocket as a reward for this dragon hunting mission. Geralt.
And his move also made Geralt both touched and a little ashamed. If Wayne didn't do much during this dragon hunting operation, then Geralt can be said to have paddled the entire process. Didn't even take part in any battles.
But everyone is a cheerful person, and after some persuasion from Wayne, Geralt graciously accepted the gold coins.
Their demon hunters still have a long lifespan, and there are still hundreds of years in the future. No matter what favors they owe, they will have the opportunity to repay them in the future.
Before leaving Holopor, Wayne also made a favor and asked Borch's Zerikan warriors to let Yarpan and his dwarf team go.
Although these dwarves were members of the dragon-slaying team, in fact, these dwarfs were paddling the whole time and had never done anything practical, so it was not unforgivable.
Moreover, Yarpan had quite a reputation and status among the young dwarves of Mahakam. Executing him rashly would only lead to the hatred of the dwarves.
Wayne took the initiative to let them go, which can be regarded as a good relationship with this group of dwarves. Maybe they will have the opportunity to deal with each other in the future.
After finishing the trivial matters, Wayne returned home at full speed.
The first thing he did after returning home was to shower and change clothes, close the door, sit on the bed, and even light a bottle of expensive incense in the bedroom and bring some fruits as sacrifices.
Last time so many treasure boxes were not shipped, he suspected that it was because he was not pious enough and had no sense of ritual.
So this time, believe it or not, while the lucky blessing from the goddess was still on him, he knelt down on the bed, silently prayed to all the gods he knew in his previous life, and then clicked on the master-level treasure box in the system and the accompanying one. The expert level treasure chest has entered the stage of touching the chest.
After taking three deep breaths to calm down his excitement, Wayne closed his eyes.
Ding! The treasure chest is open! Master Chest.
Obtained: Oren 1214 pieces, Statik Electric Blade. As the sound of the system faded, a full and heavy money bag appeared on his bed together with a short sword of about eighty centimeters.
Weapons are out! He actually produced a weapon!
Wayne was extremely excited and wanted to yell immediately. The master-level treasure chest produced all rare or treasure-level items, which were only one level lower than the strongest epic-level treasure chest. In any case, the value of this sword was definitely very high.
The lucky blessing from the Lady of the Lake is indeed very powerful. I wonder if the ritual of begging grandpa and suing grandma also played a role.
Wayne didn't pay attention to the money bag, but looked at the dagger that appeared on his bed, thinking quickly in his mind.
Statik Electric Blade? What kind of weapon is this?
Soon, a more popular name than Statik Electric Blade appeared in his mind.
Electric Blade is a very representative piece of equipment in the League of Legends world.
It is one of the favorite equipment of the former happy and windy Yasuo, a critical hit hero.
Sure enough, when Wayne held the dagger in his hand, the system gave an intimate introduction to the weapon.
Statik Electric Blade: A mysterious weapon from the continent of Valoran that can release powerful lightning magic while slashing. Its forger is no longer known, but the reputation of this weapon has been spread among many swordsmen.
Attributes: The material of this weapon is special. The sword body contains the power of wind and thunder. It is not only extremely sharp and strong, but can also increase the user's movement speed, attack speed and reaction speed.
Special ability: chain lightning. When the host holds this weapon, this weapon will absorb the magic power in the air and the host's own magic power, and accumulate it in the core of the weapon. When this power is fully accumulated, it can be actively activated by the host. , forming a powerful chain lightning that attacks multiple enemies within a certain range. Cooling time: 180 seconds.
Sure enough, it was it. Wayne was so excited that he couldn't help but pick up the dagger and look at it carefully.
The silver-white straight sword body, the shimmering blade, and the gorgeous hilt wrapped in unknown leather are both beautiful and practical. It feels very comfortable to the touch. It is definitely a weapon made by a master craftsman.
And its most striking feature is the unknown magic inscriptions carved on the sword, which are densely packed with thousands of them, covering the entire sword body.
After Wayne held the hilt of the sword, he could feel a suction force slowly injecting his chaotic magic into the sword body, and the magic inscriptions carved on the sword body also faded one by one over time. It was filled with magic power and emitted a faint fluorescence.
After waiting for about three minutes, all the magic inscriptions on the entire dagger lit up. The originally silver sword turned into a light blue under the light of countless magic inscriptions.
When all the inscriptions lit up, the Statik Electric Blade not only stopped absorbing his magic power, but instead fed back the excess magic power to his body, making his body lighter and more agile, and his mind also more agile. It's clear.
Wayne had a hunch that as long as he actively injected some magic power into the dagger, he could activate all the inscriptions in the entire dagger to form a powerful magic.
It will probably be the chain lightning mentioned in the introduction, which can hit several targets within the range.
Wayne estimated that from the blank state to the fully charged state, the dagger absorbed approximately one-tenth of the chaotic magic power in his body, which was several percent greater than the consumption of an Igni seal, and this The magic power is not only provided by Wayne alone, the dagger itself can also absorb the magic power in the air.
It is conceivable that when this chain lightning magic is activated, its power must be quite amazing.
The only pity is that this weapon is a short sword, not the long sword that the witcher is good at using.
When facing larger monsters, although the dagger is more agile and has more versatile moves, it also has many limitations, which can do more harm than good.
Compared to dealing with monsters, this sword is more suitable for fighting with people, especially when dealing with metal cans with full plate armor. A chain lightning can make them lose their combat effectiveness without even penetrating their armor.
