Goddess Wanhua Mirror

These discoveries aroused Li Wei's interest in this place. Before he came here, he had heard many rumors about Pine Town and Saint Lude, but rumors of such things are watery and distorted after all, so Li Wei Wei was only a little concerned at that time, but he didn't really believe it.

With the help of his attendants, Li Wei took off his national treasure-level armor bestowed by His Majesty the Emperor.This equipment has been accompanied by more than [-] seniors who have won glory for the country, and has won back six saintesses for the empire.

If Li Wei succeeds this time, he can wear this set of armor for 12 years, and wait until the next selection of saintess before passing it on to the younger players.But if he failed, he would have to hand in his armor as soon as he returned home.

Changing into a light prince's dress, Li Wei left the room, planning to go out for a while while it was still bright outside.As a result, as soon as the door was opened, the saint Celica who lived in the opposite door came out.

The beautiful girl also took off her divine weapon-level "Holy Maiden's Bright Armor" and changed into a pure white gauze dress, showing the girl's uneven figure to the fullest, like a holy white lotus. Li Wei was a little stunned.

"His Royal Highness?"

"Uh... sorry, I'm sorry."

He coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment, but fortunately, other people also came out of the room at this time, successfully helping Li Wei ease the atmosphere.

Since the average age of the entire saintess team is less than 20 years old, all young people are in their prime, so this trial trip is also a rare sightseeing trip.In addition, this small town gave them a good impression, so everyone felt that it was boring to stay in the room in good weather, so why not go out together for a little while and enjoy the exotic scenery.

So everyone went downstairs to the hall. The old lady was instructing the kitchen to prepare the evening reception. Seeing these handsome men and women coming downstairs, they guessed that they probably wanted to go out and wander around the town.

"Do you guys want to go out and relax?"

"Yes, Mrs. Sirina, I have been riding a horse these days and want to take a walk."

"Then let me ask you to arrange some local guides for you."

"Why don't I come."

A few people were talking here when Lu De came in from the door. Seeing that the group of rich boys wanted to go shopping, he volunteered to take the job.

The group had heard a little about the name of "Saint Luther" for a long time, and before they entered the territory of Duran Kingdom, they could already hear some sporadic rumors from some merchants.

And the most legendary among them, and the most outrageous legend to them, is that this master Luther, in order to prevent the spread of a great plague, exhausted himself to death, but he never wanted the grace of the goddess he believed in, not only Got to revive him in person, and also rejuvenate him and restore him to youth.

But now the legendary saint was standing in front of them, and his strength as a priest was really nothing to say. Before outside the town, they had seen the heroic appearance of this instant magic spell because of a misunderstanding.As for the part about resurrection and rejuvenation, everyone was really not sure for a while whether it was true or not, but if you just look at the appearance, this one is indeed very young, not much different from them.

Seeing that Lude took the initiative, it was really hard to refuse. Seeing that the saint Celica had no objection, they nodded and agreed.

So a group of people followed Lude out of the baron's mansion. Lude reckoned that there were three or four hours before the meal time, which was just enough to walk around the town. If there is any place in the whole town that is most suitable for visiting, probably It was his Brewster College.But Lu De is not ready to take these people to visit the school for the time being, so he wandered around on the street.

Because Lu De was the guide, and the group of people were all very eye-catching, handsome men and women, the rate of turning their heads back was extremely high when walking on the street, which attracted the attention of passers-by around them.But fortunately, the situation of crowding and blocking the road did not happen. Everyone just looked at them politely, bowed to Lude and said hello, and then went to their own business.

When this group of young people looked around, Lu De was also observing them silently. At the same time, he also noticed that there was another group of people following them not too far away, it should be that group Members of the "back office team".

In Lu De's view, the selection of the previous Saintess of Light and the subsequent trial trip around the continent are not so much a religious event as a variety show with a religious nature.The pope who came up with this at the beginning really understood the whole set of "idol economics".

But unlike variety shows with established scripts, the trial journey is a real battle with real knives and guns, and the targets of the trial are usually not ordinary people.Therefore, Lu De was somewhat curious. Who were they trying to deal with when they came all the way to Pine Tree Town?

End of this chapter

Regarding the purpose of the Holy Maiden of Light and her party coming to Pine Tree Town, Lu De did not try to beat around the bush, but chose to ask directly.

After all, under the hard publicity of the Holy Cult of Light for many years, almost everyone in the world knows that after being elected, all their saintesses have called their followers to participate in the "Twelve Trials". This is not a secret at all.

Therefore, Saint Celica naturally has no intention of hiding anything about Lude's inquiry. They made a special trip to the Void Forest to complete the third challenge of their trial journey and eliminate a man named The Outland Demon of "Heidtaka Miazaki".

Hearing Celica's name, Lu De was stunned for a moment before realizing who it was talking about.Others don't know, but Lude knows in his heart that the so-called "Great Demon Black Taka" does not exist in reality, and is a fictional character fabricated by him.

So in a sense, Lude is Heid Taka!

The first time Lude used this name was on his made-up "Book of Ashes", and it was just a joke at the time.

But what Lude didn't expect at the time was that the content he made up with reference to the Greek mythology style unexpectedly met the radio waves of the Lizardman.

This group of fanatical cultists successfully empowered the "Book of Ashes", which was originally just a "fake", giving it a certain degree of "spirituality", and then engaged in a wave of show operations, deceiving the lord Hydera He used super monsters as sacrifices, and forcibly turned them into "artifacts".

certainly!Strictly speaking, the "Book of Ashes" cannot be regarded as a real artifact, but a prop with certain characteristics of an artifact. If you really want to say it, it may be more appropriate to call it a "magic artifact".

Afterwards, the remnants of the defeated lizardmen retreated to the depths of the forest, and the name of "Heid Taka" was also spread through their mouths, and it was officially established in the Void Forest.

Later, Lude asked the three sisters to build a maze in the forest, and once again moved out of Heid Taka as the "behind the scenes". Those adventurers who were attracted by the treasures in the maze also entered the maze. Remember the name that made them suffer.

In addition, in the "personal design" that Lude built for himself, the old enemy he spent most of his life fighting against was precisely this Heid Taka.

Originally, Lu De thought that the "suffering devil" he created was a little famous in the northern part of the kingdom, but he never wanted to be targeted by the Guangming Holy Cult General Altar thousands of miles away, so he was directly selected as this year's saint. One of the twelve trials.

In fact, this is mainly because Lude does not understand some of the internal operating mechanisms of the Holy Cult of the Light. Before the selection of each saint, the twelve major dioceses of the Holy Church of the Bright have to recommend at least three candidates in addition to the candidates for the saint. The content of the refinement is for the general forum to choose.

Twelve trials, exactly one for each archdiocese.

As for the Duran Kingdom, when the archbishop was submitting the trial project, a demon maze appeared in the Void Forest, so he also submitted the rumors about Heid Taka, and he was really selected. .

"Master Lude, I heard that you have personally explored that labyrinth. Could you please tell us about the specific situation inside?"

Obviously!Celica and his group had done some homework before they came. They knew that Lude had entered the maze and must have a lot of information in their hands, so they asked him directly for advice and let Lude with a correct attitude. De was completely embarrassed to refuse.

After pondering for a moment, Lu De deliberately said in a very solemn tone.

"The street is not a good place to talk. Why don't we discuss it in detail when we return to the baron's mansion, or at the shrine managed by you. The matter you want to ask cannot be explained clearly in a few words."

Seeing what Lude said, Celica didn't say anything more, and the group continued to visit the town, walking to the street where the school is located.

Originally, Lude didn't want to bring these sons here, but Pine Town is so big, and the campus of Brewster College accounts for nearly one-fifth of the town's area, so it's not so easy to avoid it.

A group of sons and brothers also quickly noticed this ridiculously large "luxury courtyard", and asked Lude, which mansion in the town is this, and why does it look better than the baron's mansion they saw before? Want to be rich?

"This is not someone's mansion, but a school."

"School? Is there a school in a town of 2 people?"

"To be honest, I run this school."

In front of the crowd, Lu De stopped pretending to show his cards. Some of the crowd showed surprise, while others were relatively calm, as if they knew it a long time ago.

"...(It seems that the information between these guys is not mutual)"

I briefly introduced the situation of my school. As Lude expected, these noble children generally cannot understand what a "vocational technical school" is. After all, in this magical world that is still in the feudal society, only nobles can enter the school. High-end places also teach martial arts and magic, mainly mages who train powerful fighters for the country.

Lude didn't expect them to understand, so he didn't say any more.

At this time, the clock tower in the town rang five o'clock in the afternoon, and the bell rang loudly in the school, and then everyone saw through the fence, hundreds of children pouring out from various buildings in the school, it was originally quiet The campus instantly became full of people, and the scene was full of vitality but also extremely noisy.

All the young masters stopped and watched for a while, and no one wanted to go in to have a look. Lu De was about to take someone away, but he saw two nuns walking towards them from a long distance.

"master!"

The two nuns are Shanis and Romean, and Olyfia is also following behind them, and not far behind, there are several other familiar faces walking towards them. They are Fran, the son of the Goddess of Kitchen Fire, Lisa, the baron's sister, and Mochixima, the sister and brother of Viscount Maple.

It is worth mentioning that these four children are all members of the newly established student union of the school. Fran, who is like a campus idol, became the first president, Lisa is the vice president, Shima is the secretary, and the only male member Mochi is Accounting.

The combination of one man and three women seems to have a "harem" atmosphere at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that Lisa and Shima are pulling various stickers on Fran from left to right, while Mochi is following behind. Holding a notebook to write and draw on it, the attention is completely lost on the few beautiful girls.

A group of people who came out of the school ran over when they saw Lude here, and quickly noticed the handsome men and beauties behind him.

Shanis glanced across the crowd, paused on several of them respectively, and finally landed on the body of the saint Celica. In the bright red pupils, there seemed to be a silent earthquake happening.

End of this chapter

That night, the baron's mansion held a sumptuous banquet for the saint who came from afar.Lude was also invited to participate, and other guests included Gulig and Wenig, who are currently visiting the town, as well as the siblings Mochi and Shima from Viscount Maple's house.

In short, all the people of some status in the town were all pulled over to accompany them.

It is worth mentioning that before the banquet started, the young masters showed a lack of interest, as if they did not have any expectations for the level of hospitality that the Cricket Baron's family could provide.But when the "Pine Tree Town Special Dishes" carefully prepared by the chef was served, everyone's eyes widened.

Lu De couldn't help being moved by this situation. As expected, people from other worlds showed the face of a country bumpkin, and it was really something he never got tired of watching!

The dinner party was a feast for the guests and the host, and the entertainment after the meal was to use the projector specially brought by Lude to watch movies together in the hall. The saintess and his party showed great enthusiasm for this magical little machine. interest.

In fact, this is not the first time that the Holy Maiden and her party have seen a projector. When they were in Yanmu City in the south of the Kingdom more than two months ago, they saw a local theater using this thing to play a play called "The Cave King". Some people took the time to watch it once, and the experience was very novel.

Among the crowd, Li Wei, the prince from the empire, was most interested in the projector.After all, in the field of culture, the Canary Empire has always been the leader in the human world. The people's love for opera is from top to bottom, second only to bathing.

Li Wei, who grew up in such a humanistic environment, was naturally influenced by his parents and relatives and friends. He was quite an avid opera lover, and even secretly wrote some "fan scripts" in private.

What's interesting is that when Li Wei first heard about "The Cave King", his attitude was very disdainful, and he felt that Dulan was ignorant, and he must have never seen the performance of their top song and dance troupe in the empire, so he regarded this third-rate song and dance troupe The unknown play that was performed was forcibly blown to the sky.

But I couldn't hold the saint's interest, so I went to watch it together, and turned into the king of another world Jingze in the theater, once again proving that the "Law of True Fragrance" is an eternal and universal truth no matter where it goes!

After that, Li Wei became a fan of the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe and the playwright Hugo. During his stay in Yanmu City, he watched "The Cave King" eight times, and even bought it from the theater owner. Plan to install projector and video crystal.

It's a pity that despite Li Wei's repeated price increases, all the theater owners and projection teams in Yanmu City refused to sell their projectors. It is owned by Brother Pictures, which is above them, and behind Brother Pictures is the Mafia Brotherhood. If you offend them, there is no good juice to eat!

In desperation, Li Wei, who only stayed in Yanmu City for a short time, failed to buy a projector and video crystal in the end, but he never expected to see this wonderful machine again in Pine Tree Town.

After inquiring about it with people around him, Li Wei found out that this thing was made in Pine Town, and the dwarves of the Steel Whip clan were already preparing for mass production.

And Hugo, the "great playwright" whom he had been hoping to meet, was exactly the pen name Lu De used. Even the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe was also there, and they were filming a new drama called "Film". Wei was ecstatic and shocked at the hidden dragon and crouching tiger in this small pine town.

Early the next morning, Saint Celica came to Lude's temple with four entourages including Prince Li Wei.

As a newcomer yesterday, Celica wanted to inquire about the situation of the abyss labyrinth with Lude, so the two sides made an appointment to meet in the temple the next morning for a detailed discussion.

A group of people came to the gate of the temple on foot, and first stood at the door and waited for a while. They saw that although the temple was small in scale, the overall architectural style was beautiful, shining brightly under the sunshine.

Celica felt it a little bit, and whispered to her companion.

"It's incredible! This temple has been blessed by the gods, and more than one. How did the master do it?"

Although Celica is the saint of the Holy Cult of Light, her status is second only to the Pope in name, and she is considered the "Goddess" of the Holy Lord of Light, but she is a mortal after all, even when facing pagan gods , also need to show enough respect.

Therefore, Celica reminded her partners in advance that when they meet Master Lude later, they must be polite and refrain from being disrespectful to an old man who has the name of "saint".

A few people stepped over the gate of the courtyard wall, and as soon as they reached the front yard, they saw several beautiful nuns cleaning the courtyard with brooms and buckets.Li Wei's eyes swept over the faces of the nuns one by one, the expression on the face was unmoved, but he couldn't help complaining in his heart, this master's standard for accepting apprentices is not low, and all of them are of extremely high level Beautiful girl.

Celica frowned slightly, vaguely feeling that these nuns didn't seem to be simple, and she actually had a feeling of "not seeing through".

Seeing the arrival of the saintess and her party, a dragon-born girl with first-born horns greeted her. She called herself Romean and was a disciple of Master Lude. Take it directly to the reception room.

So a few people followed Romean through the main hall to the backyard. Li Wei heard that Romean's accent was familiar, so he asked casually, "Are you from the empire?"Romean glanced at the other party, then nodded and said.

"I did escape from the empire. It was Master Master who took me in when I was most helpless."

Romean didn't say why he left the empire, but Li Wei, the prince, couldn't be more clear.The Canary Empire, which calls itself the "light of the human race", is a country where racial discrimination prevails. Even if the minorities who are not the main ethnic group are excluded and suppressed, the living conditions of the sub-human race are even worse.

Li Wei felt that this situation was very bad, but even though he was a prince, there were still many things he could do nothing about.

At this time, the bright morning sun shone on Romean, and Li Wei suddenly noticed that the flame-like red hair of this Argonian girl exuded a faint golden light, like a burning flame. There were waves of turmoil in his heart.

Because in the Canary Empire, golden-red "flaming hair" is a symbol of the imperial family members, and only members of the royal family can have this hair color, which makes Li Wei a little suspicious. This dragon who fled from the empire She is a young girl, I am afraid that she is not the "illegitimate daughter" of one of her relatives.

End of this chapter

Following Romean, the saintess came to the reception room of the temple. Not long after they sat down, they saw Lu De walking in quickly from the outside, followed by a black and white fluffy creature flying in behind him.

This fluffy little thing landed directly on the coffee table, tilted its head and stared at Celica and the others. This naive and cute appearance immediately made the saint and the other two girls who came with her feel cute. Then there was an urge to hold him in his arms and RUA fiercely.

"Master, who is this little animal?"

"Her name is Kang Na. She is a two-and-a-half-year-old young dragon. Her parents fostered her with me for some special reasons. If you want to pet her, you can pet her. Remember to give her some refreshments later." Well, every time I have a visitor here, she will come to touch porcelain."

Hearing that Lu De said that this little cute creature would be masturbated as long as it was given food, the girls suddenly showed joy.Kang Na was also very cooperative and immediately entered the "business mode", actively jumped on Celica's lap, rubbed against her body vigorously, and then let out a soft "meow".

The three girls immediately rushed forward, caressing Kang Na's fluffy body with excellent touch.Seeing this, Li Wei and another male companion didn't know who they should envy for a while.

But Lu De glanced at Kang Na, thinking that this greedy ghost has worked hard enough for his stuttering, and he didn't even want the majesty of the Dragon Clan!

After waiting for a while, the three ladies had enough fun, and the two parties finally started talking about business, while Kang Na ran to the side to eat a large plate of butter cookies that she had "prostituted herself".

Celica's visit this time is to learn some information about the abyss labyrinth from Lude.

Regarding this magic cave that only appeared last year, the diocesan personnel of the Holy Cult of Light in the Kingdom of Duran provided them with very limited information, and many of them were just hearsay at first glance, and there were even obvious contradictions between them.

Most adventurers say that this place is extremely dangerous, and the organs inside are not only numerous but also designed to be very sinister and vicious.While they were visiting the Tower of Three, the other party's chief wizard, Hamilton, said that the maze is actually very simple, and also showed a golem brought out by him from the maze, which is said to be the bottom of the first floor. caretaker.

When Lude heard what Hamilton said, he thought that Celica probably didn't know that there was a long-standing grievance between Lan Dermatitis and the Holy Cult of Light. Besides, this guy only hit the first floor, and didn't go deep into the bottom layer at all. Pass.

Although Lude didn't plan to provide much assistance to the other party, at least he didn't plan to cheat people on intelligence.

"Master Hamilton's words, you'd better look at it dialectically. After all, he is a great magician of the fire department, one of the top powerhouses in the world today, he said 'very simple', that is for him. "

"Master, have you ever been to that maze?"

"I've been there. It's a bit deeper than Hamilton. Although it's far from the deepest level, I can be sure that Heid Taka's real body should not be in the maze, but there must be a projection of his consciousness."

"Projection? What's that?"

"You can understand it as a clone, similar to the envoy created by the gods. I have encountered this kind of projection in other parts of the world before. Destroying it has no effect on Heid Taka. His body is hiding outside the world. Then It is an area that neither mortals nor gods can touch."
