The Whispering Verses Chapter 963: The Third Trial of the Lady of the Lake

Xia De observed the expression of the lady in front of him:

"Beat you? Do you mean guessing riddles? A competition of wisdom?"

Xia De blinked.

"No, it's just what you understand, fighting."

"Well, you are not joking, are you?"

"Of course this is not a joke, defeat me now, this is your third trial."

The lady in white robe said softly, the light around her body was still so soft, and she made an inviting gesture.

"Is this really a trial that I can complete?"

Although the difficulty of the first two tasks, proving oneself at the banquet and exploring the professor's secrets, is increasing, they are all within an acceptable range. The difference in difficulty between the third trial and the first two trials, to use inappropriate metaphors, is almost the same as the difference between "defeat the vampire god" and "defeat the talking white mouse" and "defeat the orange cat Mia" Same.

"Every trial is possible for you to complete."

The lady in white robe once again emphasized what Shade said when she first came, and Shade pursed his lips:

"I thought the trials I was going to complete were all trials of wisdom. Why compete for strength?"

The lady in white robe said softly:

"In the first trial, you have proved your ability to act and judge; in the third trial, you have to prove yourself Power. This time, prove your power to me.

I will suppress my power and use the occult system of this era to fight against you. You don't have to worry about this. ”

Xia De held the [Night Watcher] in his hand. Although he felt that such a trial was still a bit outrageous, he still nodded to accept it.

Having completed two of the four trials, he had to give it a try no matter what. Although he no longer had the [Eternal Youth Leaf] in his hand, he felt that even if he lost, the lady in front of him would not beat him to death.

Shad looked at Professor Drake who was sitting in a wheelchair, bowing his head and crying on the lake:

"Let's solve the professor's problem first.

Professor Drake, this is it, I will bring you here, and you can make an additional wish or ask a question. Don't worry, it doesn't cost anything. You can ask this woman to restore your legs so you can walk again, or erase the memory of this journey. You can even ask her to erase all memories of me in your mind, just treat it as if you didn't do anything this winter and just lived like before. ”

The professor lowered his head and said nothing, Shade continued:

"I understand your feelings. I have heard stories about people and dragons. Some people yearn for the dragon and want to see the dragon all the time. But when the dragon fulfills his wish and appears, he is trapped again. It’s normal to be scared. Don’t take it to heart.”

"I was actually shocked by my own wisdom."

The professor shook his head and said.

"Wisdom and knowledge are inherently a heavy force and a heavy burden."

The voice of the lady in white robe was very soft, and Shade nodded aside. Foreigners in this world are deeply touched by this sentence:

"Wisdom and knowledge are also wealth, but we all know that more wealth is not necessarily better. Professor Drake, make a wish. Because of my own trials, I re-excavated the past that you deliberately forgot, then I have the obligation to bury it again. Please make a wish to end this. This is what you deserve."

Although this meant wasting a gift opportunity for Shade, Shade thought he should do it.

The old professor wiped his face with the back of his hand and raised his head to look at the two people on the lake. The lady in white robe is surrounded by pure white holy light, and the young man holding the sword has silver-white moonlight:

"Wise man in the lake, goddess on the water, I make my wish to you."

The old professor stretched out his trembling hand and pointed at Shade:

"Before you have a fair duel with this gentleman, please give this gentleman as much help as possible."

"What?"

Xia De looked at the professor in surprise, but the professor just shook his head. He looked at Sha De, the eyes on his old face were unusually tired:

"Mr. Watson, all decisions are my own choices.

The fear of wisdom is my own thoughts. I'm used to these legs, and I don't want to die with doubts. Now that we have learned the truth today, why should we forget it? I gained wisdom for pursuit and abandoned it because of fear. So what is the need to regret it again now? Fool, I only do it once and that's enough. ”

The sun shines on the professor at noon, but it makes him look even more rickety:

"It's enough to know this now. At least when I lie in the grave, I think I am happy, because I have no other doubts in my life."

"I have given you other opportunities. Your wisdom is enough for me to give you more power, but you chose the worst result. The choice at this time is not the worst, but it is not the best either. OK."

The lady in white robe said to the professor. Shade did not understand this sentence, but the professor did. He lowered his eyes and his hoarse voice was almost singing:

"We live on a peaceful island called ignorance, surrounded by an endless black ocean, and we should not have set sail. The dark grave is right in front of us. I would like to sleep here forever and listen to the wind and waves. ”

"He is afraid of wisdom."

The lady in white robe said to Shade, Shade shook his head at the lady:

"It's not fear, it's awe. Staying away because of awe can also be regarded as a kind of wisdom. At least teach yourself to be happy before death."

The lady in white robe showed a gentle smile:

"It seems you understand. In response to Professor Kansas Drake's wish, I allow you to control the water under your feet."

"Okay, can manipulate the water here, and now, beat you here."

Shad sighed softly. Obtaining the authority meant that he could move around the waters at will.

But this kind of help is not enough to give Shade any advantage. It is not that he is timid or cowardly, nor is he belittle oneself and be overly modest. Priest August said that the "Lady of the Lake" is a genuine ancient angel with a high status. Not much lower than the original angel.

Even if the angel suppresses the power, Shade is quite self-aware and thinks that he may not be able to gain the upper hand.

As for using divinity here, that is even more impossible. Using a drop of divinity for the sake of a drop of divinity makes no sense at all.
