Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 335 334. Feeling of sleep

The lady in the lake has been urging me on and off for a week.

 She was delaying the opening of the celestial sphere intersection rift, but Lan En had no intention of delaying it any longer after waiting for the equipment he had wanted to get for a long time.

By this time, Poppai was already very familiar with the route from Gos Velen to Vizima. In order to save some time, Lan also took the inland river ferry halfway.

 He had originally planned to just use horses to walk there this time, so he could think of it as relaxing on the road.

 But the space expansion spell that had been delayed for two days still made him hurry up.

 Lann had disembarked before entering the dock in Vizima waters. He made a deal with Foltest to stay away from this maelstrom of political confrontation.

Although judging from the news received in the past few days, Foltest has almost wiped out the remaining strength of Staisa.

 But Lan En still believes that if it is not necessary, it is better to be a person who keeps his promises.

Poppy was entrusted by Lann to the owner of the Dusky Water Inn. When he left, Lann left ten uncut Oren coins as food expenses.

Berengar still doesn’t know how long he will spend in Arethusa, and he probably won’t come out until the device is finalized.

 Therefore, there was one less person in the village who could help him take care of his horses.

“Don’t worry, sir. I guarantee that this horse can eat better than me, and I won’t let it do heavy work. It will only be properly exercised. I would rather let me lose weight than let it suffer!”

The innkeeper is already familiar with the witcher and his friends.

 After all, the rent for the room Margarita booked was still not used up even now.

So he simply put the darkened and shiny towel on his shoulders and made a solemn promise.

 “Thanks, man.”

By the time Lan En arrived at the dock of this small village, the local fishermen were eagerly waiting for him to drive away his boat.

 Because the fishermen who have experienced it twice know very well that if the cat-eyed man in front of them sets off the boat and leaves, he will not come back for a month.

This time can be completely regarded as lost, and the man himself knows this, so when he sails away, he will basically pay the price of buying it instead of renting it.

If you think your boat is a bit old and want to replace it with a fast and stable fishing boat, then the money this man spent can be considered a timely blessing.

It was the same thing today. The man just wanted to leave quickly and didn't even bargain much at the checkout.

This was even more generous than the previous two times, and the fishermen were talking a lot, thinking that this handsome man had found a profitable business.

When Lan En landed on Black Tern Island, he saw the messenger of the Lady in the Lake, a nymph waiting for him.

 “You’re a little late this time.”

While she was complaining, she and Lan En, who jumped out of the boat, dragged the fishing boat to the beach.

Her naked aqua body, some parts bounced under the violent movements.

It was easy for Lan En to know why many strong men were literally killed by nymphs and water nymphs even though farmers had extraordinary resistance to non-human races. Eat and wipe clean.

 Men always have the illusion that they can get something cheap.

“Huh~ Madam, let me wait for you here, come with me.”

 Lan En was a little curious as to what the lady messenger usually did.

 After all, Miss Nymph did not show up when she came last time. She even greeted Lan En by herself.

If this were placed in a human court, such a lazy maid would probably be punished.

“Under the lake, the home of the half-murlocs has been almost destroyed by the group of deep divers.”

Miss Nymph, who was leading the way according to etiquette, lifted her waist-length green hair, exposed her graceful back for a moment, and spoke plainly.

"Under the surface of the lake is the place where that thing has caused the most serious damage. Even now, the half-fish people have not completed the reconstruction. I was helping them before." 'That thing' refers to Dagon.

Miss Nymph seems to have given up her desire for Lan En now, or maybe it is really hard work to rebuild the underwater half-murloc kingdom, so she does not get too entangled with him.

 It was simply brought to the temple in the lake, and then sank into the water without a trace.

Lan En took out the cone-shaped crystal from the alchemical leather bag and swept it on the marble beneath the surface of the lake.

The lake seemed to sense something automatically, and the waves and foam turned into words in the distortion and transformation—

 “I’m still dealing with the end of my hand, and the rift is about to open.”

 “Tsk, tsk.” Lan En took back the cone-shaped crystal again and smacked it in his mouth.

"It seems that the lake **** who was sacrificed with blood really fed her up. How many people died was this thing? Was it a war?"

The blood sacrifices and wars on the other side of the world cannot affect this place, let alone the rift between the heaven and earth created by the surge of chaotic magic power.

The crack, like a broken mirror, floated upward again from the lake water.

After losing the restraint of the lady in the lake, the sound of "caracara" in which the spatial structure was torn apart by the magic of chaos could be heard endlessly.

 When it finally hovered in front of Lan En, the originally flickering light on the opposite side also began to stabilize.

The witcher took a deep breath to calm down the intense beating of his two hearts in his chest.

 The handprint on his left hand flashed by, and a golden magic shield covered his body.

He put the great sword of Zhuoliu into the alchemy leather bag on his waist. This kind of weapon, which looks brutal from its appearance, will only cause trouble if it suddenly appears in a peaceful area.

However, Arondette, who wore the Elf-style long sword on his waist, still hung it because Lan En wanted to give himself some necessary but not excessive deterrence.

 “Huh, we’re old acquaintances, let’s go.”

The witcher muttered and took a step forward.

But the Celestial Sphere Intersection Fissure, which he hailed as an ‘old acquaintance’, had no intention of giving him any face.

 A very unfamiliar feeling came from the body.

 It is a completely different feeling from the previous two times when I traveled through the intersection of the celestial sphere.

Although the first two times were intense, they were nothing more than dizziness and swelling and pain in the brain.

 Equivalent to having Mentos perform [Memory Dive] when passing through the Warlock Portal.

  It was very uncomfortable, but it did not make Lan En completely lose consciousness.

But this time, I felt dizzy, light-headed, occasionally frightened, and twitched like a nervous reflex.

 If I had to describe it, it is similar to the feeling of a person who has difficulty sleeping, being stuck in the gap between waking and falling asleep.

I don’t know how long it took. In my groggy consciousness, even the sense of time became ambiguous.

 Finally, with a weightless and twitching feeling like falling in a dream, Lan En felt his feet touch the ground.

 “Woo, ah?”

 The dull, unfocused cat eyes were flashed by the light in front of him and refocused.

 What came into view was the dazzling, blood-red sunset shining through the gaps in the tall Gothic spire buildings.
