Chapter 925 Barefoot Nun

The cat led the way, and Shade and Sister Devlin led the horses side by side to the surface of Lake Kalek.

When he first started walking on the lake, the surrounding scenery was very clear. Shade could clearly see the three rings on little Mia's tail not far in front, and he could only smell the wet water vapor on the lake; after walking for ten more

After a few steps, water mist rose from nowhere. The surrounding heavy fog suddenly obscured the scenery around the lake. Even the little Mia in front had only her flexible tail left to be caught in the thick fog.

See.

In the thick fog, the [Metamorphosis Ring], [Fish Training Ring] and [Vampire Ring] seemed to be glowing, dispersing a little of the fog, making the tail extremely clear.

"Where did this thick fog come from?"

Shade was thinking in his mind, but neither he nor the nun spoke. The two of them silently led the horse and continued walking towards the depths of the lake. Unknowingly, the little Mia in front became clearer and clearer, and the surrounding thick fog gradually dispersed.

go.

However, the lake was no longer surrounded by the countryside west of Huntington City, but a winter forest surrounding the lake. It seemed that when they were walking on the lake, they traveled to another time and space and came to the mysterious Lake of Cherubim.

"Look, the island in the middle of the lake."

Shade said softly to Sister Devlin, and then sighed:

"Every time I find this place it is so interesting. If I could come here dozens of times in a row, it would be enough to publish a fairy tale book."

At this time, little Mia had successfully landed on the island, and then looked around excitedly. Before Shade and Sister Devlin could catch up, a "dangerous" big guy also appeared on the shore of the island in the middle of the lake.

It was the wild wolf that was "resurrected" by the power of the relic [Swamp Witch] when Shade first saw the Lake of Cherubim but failed to make contact.

I saw it the last time I landed on the island, but I didn't expect it to still be on the island.

The wild wolf was very powerful in the wolf pack before it was alive, otherwise it would not have survived Shade's pursuit, and its size could definitely be considered a "giant" for little Mia.

The wolf appeared in front of little Mia. The city cats had never seen this kind of creature before and looked at it curiously. The wild wolf was eager to attack the "weak" cat and was ready to bite, so the orange cat "howled" at the wolf.

To make threats:

"Meow~"

The "resurrected" wild wolf immediately ran away with its tail between its legs. When Shade let go of the reins and quickly came to Mia's side, the wolf had even disappeared into the low bushes on the island.

"Oh, my Mia, why are you so bold? If the wolf hadn't been frightened by me, you would have been in danger today!"

Shade hurriedly picked up the cat. The cat looked at him doubtfully, and then shrank into Shade's arms. Behind Shade, Sister Devlin, who was leading two horses ashore, clearly felt that it was strange.

The cat itself scared off the strange wolf.

All in all, compared to the previous two visits to the Lady of the Lake, this visit went surprisingly smoothly.

After placing the two horses on the shore and letting them graze, Shade and Sister Devlin came to the lake in the center of the island in the middle of the lake.

In the middle of the lake stands a slender boulder with sharp edges. The lady in white robe holding a staff is waiting for the arrival of the two people under the boulder.

"Sister, the lake here prohibits the ability to walk on water."

Shade reminded in a low voice.

Sister Devlin nodded, then respectfully saluted the lady in white robe in the middle of the lake, and finally lowered her head to "gazing" at the lake with no waves in the middle of the lake.

After hesitating for a moment, she bent down slightly, reached for the hem of her robe, took off her brown ladies' lace-up short cloth boots, and placed them on the shore.

Putting her hands together on her abdomen, Sister Devlin walked barefoot towards the water like a pilgrim. Under Shade's surprised gaze, she actually stood on the water like the "Lady of the Lake".

Sister Devlin walked towards the center of the lake. The trailing hem of her robe left arc-shaped ripples on the calm water, but the robe itself was not wet.

Shade did not look at Sister Devlin's feet. In this era, it is quite impolite to peek directly at a lady's feet:

"But can you stand on the water if you take off your shoes?"

He guessed doubtfully, but no matter how hard he thought about it, he knew it wouldn't be that simple.

Then she looked up at Sister Devlin's back. The nun had already arrived in the middle of the lake. After saluting the lady in white robe holding the staff again, she turned around and "looked" at Shade:

"Xia De, let go of your spirit, let yourself integrate with this world, and imagine that you are the boundless water itself."

The nun seemed to have given the answer directly, but in fact it was just like Shade telling Agelina the conclusion of his thesis and asking Agelina to prove it. Sometimes what is important is not the answer, but the process, and Xia De

De believes that he is not yet in the same state as this fire-wielding nun.

Therefore, he still could only rely on the [Power of the Red Dragon] and [The Leap of the Frog] to jump from the shore to the middle of the lake.

"Lady Cherubim."

After standing firm, Shade nodded slightly in greeting. When the lady in white robe looked at him, he coughed and announced:

"I think I have completed your first test and proved my strength, wisdom and charm at the grand wedding dinner in Tobesk."

"Do you have the credentials?"

the soft voice asked.

"Yes."

Shade had already thought of this and reached out to his arms to get it:

"Look, this pink silk scarf was thrown to me by the great witch with eleven rings when she acknowledged my power; this handkerchief was thrown by a real princess when she acknowledged my wisdom; and

There is a silk scarf, yes, it was originally tied around the neck of a seventeen-year-old girl. When she recognized my charm, she gave it to me as a gift."

There was nothing wrong with them when I took them with me, but now that I took them out in front of Sister Devlin, I suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Sister Devlin's face was usually expressionless, so Shade didn't have to guess what she was thinking.

The white-robed "Cherub Lady" nodded slightly:

"Yes, Shad Hamilton, you successfully passed the first of the four trials."

A smile appeared on Shade's face:

"So what is the second test? I can't wait."

"Show me your wisdom and explore the secrets of the past

Kansas Drake, a retired folklore professor who lives in the old city west of Carsonrick Huntington in the Sixth Age, why did he come to me, what price did he pay, and what wishes did he make.”

As she spoke, ripples appeared on the calm water below the three of them. As the scene at the bottom of the clear lake became blurry, Professor Drake appeared on the water sitting on the sofa, drinking tea and reading a newspaper at home.

screen.

He didn't notice at all that there were three "people" watching him, and he still had a happy expression.

“What three questions do I need answered?”

"Yes, but what you need to explore is actually just one thing."

The lady in white robe said, and the scene on the water disappeared.

Shade nodded:

"Yes, I understand, I will complete this task as soon as possible."

"When you come back to me after completing the second test, please prepare a long sword."

She reminded again, and Shade nodded again and touched the cat in his arms, knowing that the next time he searched for this lake, it would be a new trick.

Little Mia was looking here curiously at this time. Although she hated the unfamiliar environment, since Shade was still here, she would not be afraid. Her big eyes finally looked at the lady in white robes, "Ms. Cherubim

"Saw it too.

"The Lady of the Lake" nodded slightly, and the cat's eyes looked elsewhere. After all, there are a lot of interesting things here.
