If you had a golden apple, who would you give it to?
At the banquet, Lorne, who had been invited, saw the golden apple on the plate inscribed with "For the Fairest Goddess," and the t...
Chapter 562 The fairy’s night attack!
Inside the house, Morgan asked:
"What about you guys? Why did you come to the North?"
"I heard that this place used to be an ancient battlefield with many tombs buried nearby. We came here on a whim to take a look, hoping to gain some useful insights."
Lorne replied with a wry smile.
Although the content is true, it blurs the most crucial information.
Morgan heard this and did not doubt it.
The world of the Celtic Age of Gods is not clearly divided into different parts. Various "other worlds" such as Sky Island, Shadow Kingdom, Fairyland, Avalon, etc., serve as heaven or underworld.
The [Spirit Tomb] is the prototype of these [other worlds].
They are often born due to many factors such as the fall of gods and monsters, the collision of power, the change of the earth's energy, etc. Most of them contain many treasures such as divine remains, magic cores, artifact fragments, ancient secret books, etc.
Once an explorer is lucky enough to dig up a tomb and grasp the wealth and secrets contained therein, he is likely to reach the pinnacle of his life and completely change his destiny.
Therefore, every year a large number of explorers flock here and are very keen to track down clues to the tomb.
Since humans, goblins, and gods are no exception, it is understandable that the playful master and disciple are interested in the spirit tomb.
As mages, the tomb of spirits is indeed of great exploration value to them.
However, most explorers have spent their entire lives without even finding the entrance to the tomb.
A few who are lucky enough to enter will soon be killed by the magic traps, poison gas, and monsters in the [Spirit Tomb], and become a pile of nameless skeletons underground.
There are only a handful of lucky people who can truly explore and master a [Spirit Tomb].
To achieve this, strength, brains and luck are all essential.
Morgan thought for a moment and suggested:
"It just so happens that the [Albion] we are looking for is a spirit tomb. How about we travel together? After the mission is accomplished, I will only need to correspond to the goblin knight in the prophecy. As for the things inside, you can take them as you like."
"make a deal!"
Loen nodded happily and immediately high-fived Morgan to swear an oath of alliance.
The Tomb of Albion was of great importance, and he could not let Morgan go there alone no matter what.
But as a local snake, the other party is very familiar with the environment here, and has a close connection with the rain fairy clan stationed here. Even the good student and guide Vivian who follows him is his sister. It is almost impossible for me to completely bypass the other party's attention and quietly enter the Tomb of Albion to explore.
In this case, the only option is to cooperate with Morgan and the other two, blend into the opponent's team, and wait for the opportunity to act.
Morgan had originally intended to recruit the reliable and steady wizard Merlin, so when he saw that he was willing to join, he was naturally happy to see it happen.
As a result, the atmosphere in the room gradually became warmer as both sides showed their goodwill.
"I thought it would take a long time for us to meet again after we parted in Cornwall, but I didn't expect to meet you in Orkney in just a few days. What a fate."
Morgan picked up the silver kettle and filled a cup of honeydew, a specialty of the goblins, for the new partner, and greeted him with some emotion.
It is fate, but I am afraid it is an unlucky fate...
While Luo En was complaining in his heart, he quietly tried to get information:
"Come to think of it, you seem to be very familiar with the fairies of the Rain Clan?"
"When I first went out to travel, I didn't know the way and accidentally entered the territory of the Rain Clan. Not only did they not blame me, they took me in and treated me very well. They taught me a lot of knowledge during our time together and are like half of my mother clan."
Morgan answered softly, looking at the old woman with pointed ears who brought preserved fruits and snacks, his eyes revealing a rare tenderness.
Back then, the three goddesses had different ideas from the Tuatha de Danann, so they pretended to approach Nuada, the first king, and secretly took away the [Stone of Destiny] from him when he was not paying attention.
Then, through the mystery of reincarnation, they washed away the marks of the old Irish gods, descended from the Island of Skye, traveled all the way from Ireland, the base camp of the Tuatha de Danann, to Britain, and finally settled on the Island of Avalon, becoming the three sisters of the Lake Fairy today.
Then, they secretly redeveloped their faith in this desolate land and prepared to implement their plan for the [Eternal Throne].
However, since they were already at odds with the [Clan of Gods] represented by the Tuatha de Danann, the only forces the three goddesses could rely on were the [Clan of Fairies] in the Misty Forest, namely the six major fairy clans, and the indigenous humans of Britain.
At that time, the eldest sister Morgause, who possessed the [power of conception], needed to protect the [womb], and the youngest sister Elaine had not yet fully recovered from the reincarnation ritual. The task of secretly connecting and controlling the six fairy clans and advancing the plan naturally fell on Morgan, who ranked second, possessed the [power of death] and had good combat effectiveness.
Therefore, Morgan came to the Misty Forest, claiming to be Vivian, a fairy from the paradise of Avalon.
This is the common vest of the three lake fairy sisters, and now it is inherited by Elaine, who woke up last.
Morgan still remembered that she had just completed the secret ritual of reincarnation and her strength had not yet fully recovered. After accidentally entering the territory of the Rain Clan, she thought she would be harassed and teased.
Unexpectedly, the fairies treated her very well. They even took her in as one of their own and gave her a very fairy-like name - "梣".
A tree that grows from [rainwater] and has extremely high medicinal value.
So in the following days, with the help of the Rain Clan, Morgan integrated into the six major fairy clans and gradually became the controller of the six major fairy clans.
Later, she learned that the fairies of the Rain Clan treated her so well because they knew through prophecy:
The [Paradise Fairy] from Avalon will become the savior of all Britain.
The ash tree is also called the "Tree of Creation" in some myths and legends.
Although she and the Rain Clan had their own purposes in their initial interactions, as time went on, she had long regarded herself as a fairy who was half of the Rain Clan.
Likewise, the Rain Clan has always regarded Morgan as one of their own, and because of a prophecy of Morgan, the entire clan moved to the northern border of Britain and established the border city of Orkney to prevent the occurrence of the [Great Cataclysm].
That’s right, it was Morgan who ordered the Rain Clan to guard here.
Of course, Lorne and Vivian, who was awakened later when the situation stabilized, were unaware of these secrets.
However, this did not prevent them from sensing the kindness that the fairies of the Rain Clan showed to them and Morgan.
After a brief greeting, Morgan turned to look at the Rain Clan leader and said:
"Mother-in-law, we are going to rest here for one night and leave tomorrow morning. If it is convenient, please prepare a few bedrooms for us to rest."
The kind-looking old lady with pointed ears glanced at the five people at the scene, and a trace of difficulty appeared on her face.
"It is convenient. But I don't have many empty rooms here, only two."
"It's okay, we can just squeeze in."
Morgan patted the fairy old woman's hand and answered gently, showing a side that was completely different from his usual cold and aloof image.
Obviously, this witch really treats the fairies of the Rain Clan as her relatives and this place as her home.
It is no wonder that in future Celtic legends, Morgan would be called the "Queen of Orkney".
While Morgan and the old fairy lady were patiently chatting, Vivian, who couldn't sit still, glanced at the night outside the window, her eyes rolled, and she smiled and pulled Lorne's arm:
"You guys chat, my teacher and I have been traveling for several days in a row, and we are almost exhausted. I'm going to sleep first."
"Get back here!"
Before Vivian could find an excuse to slip out, Morgan, who was furious, detained this unreliable sister with a cold face.
Some time ago, in order to ease the relationship with the Tuatha de Danann and visit her old friend Scathach, she went to Ireland and Scotland.
As a result, just as she left, Vivian, who was assigned to the Misty Forest to supervise the six fairy clans in forging the [Sword of the King], ran away.
In the end, it was she, the second elder sister, who had to step in personally to clean up the mess for her good younger sister.
Previously in Cornwall, she had wanted to teach this unreliable sister a lesson, but her plan was unexpectedly shelved because of an encounter with a swarm of insects.
As luck would have it, Vivian ran into her again in Orkney today.
With new hatred added to old grudges, she said she would do anything to have a "good" emotional exchange with this sister.
Vivian smelled the ominous smell in the air and quickly shrank behind the cheap teacher, dragging this shield slowly back towards the door:
"Two rooms, one for me and the teacher, and one for the three of you. It's so late, go get some rest first. We can talk tomorrow morning if we have anything to say."
"No, it's better for us to stay in one room!"
Morgan stuck his wand into the floor, pinning Vivian's shadow in the moonlight, and sneered,
"We've been apart for so long, I have a lot to say to you."
As he spoke, Morgan strode forward, grabbed Vivian's neck, and dragged this good sister who needed to be punished into a small dark room in the distance.
Knowing that she was in great danger, Vivian struggled and asked Lorne for help:
"Teacher, save me! Teacher Merlin, help me!"
Luo En looked helpless, but he couldn't help but gloat in his heart.
Good death!
There is always a nemesis for every thing. This woman deserves to be punished!
However, Vivian was taken away by Morgan tonight, so he might have to change his roommate.
As Lorne was thinking, he felt a strange burning sensation coming from behind him.
He turned around and saw the two fairy knights Bagster and Bavanshi beside Morgan, looking straight at him.
That strange and eager gaze makes people feel inexplicably creepy.
Lorne coughed and asked:
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Are you human?"
"Technically speaking, I'm a mixed-blood."
Upon hearing this, Bawanxi's eyes flickered and her face flushed.
Then Bagster stepped forward:
"Do you possess the status of the Lord God?"
"It was given to me by Gwyn, the Sun King of Wales. It was his reward for asking me to clean up the mess."
Lorne made a perfunctory statement to Morgan, looked at the two fairy knights who were about to become his roommates, and asked:
"What? Is there something wrong?"
Bavanshi and Bagster shook their heads in unison and rolled their pink tongues unconsciously.
Slurp~~
Two streams of sparkling saliva were sucked back into their mouths.
Luo En felt an inexplicable chill in his heart, and immediately retreated with his arms folded in caution:
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"You smell so good."
The vampire Bawanxi leaned closer and sniffed, her pretty face flushed with drunkenness.
“Very strong too!”
The dog demon Bagster's eyes swept across Lorne's pectoral muscles, and his itchy canine teeth rubbed against them.
Seeing the two female fairies in such a state, Loen's face immediately turned black.
He remembered that vampires loved to suck human blood the most, especially half-humans with divine blood.
As for the dog demons, they are aggressive creatures. They like to challenge the strong and have the habit of eating the defeated and turning them into part of their own bodies.
In other words, one of these two female fairies wanted to suck his blood, and the other wanted to eat his flesh.
How come this originally heartwarming fantasy adventure story suddenly took a sharp turn and turned into a horror supernatural plot?
Sure enough, most of those beautiful fairy tales about fairies have been beautified and processed through art.
Luo En, whose filter was shattered, didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and warned:
"I am Morgan's guest after all, your companion, please don't mess around."
After saying that, he turned and walked into the only remaining bedroom, closed the door and went straight to bed.
Looking at the locked door, Bagster scratched his head, feeling a little depressed:
"He is my mother's guest..."
"Mmm, very nice guest."
Bawanshi nodded, still staring at the direction where a humanoid creature left.
After hearing what Bawanshi said, Bagster couldn't help but swallow his saliva:
“It should be delicious.”
"The mother didn't say."
"Well, did mother tell us not to eat it?"
“It seems that there is none…”
Bavanshi and Bagster looked at each other and licked their tongues excitedly.
No comment!
It’s okay if you don’t say it!
My mother controlled me all the way and didn't allow me to do anything. It was so hard.
Now, the mother was asleep and didn't give them any orders, which meant they were free to do whatever they wanted!
As their minds were opened, the two fairies suddenly felt a huge sense of excitement.
They walked out of the living room and carefully walked to the bedroom door.
Hearing the steady and even breathing coming from inside, the two fairy knights rubbed their hands excitedly, then quietly opened the door, tiptoed into the bedroom, and walked step by step towards the sleeping figure on the bed.
Under the moonlight, the smiles on the two beautiful faces were extremely excited and pure.
As appetite and impulse overwhelmed the last bit of rationality in their minds, the two goblin knights pounced on the bed like wolves.
“Bang! Bang!”
Two brief muffled sounds echoed, and the house returned to silence.
~~
The next morning.
Morgan, feeling refreshed, dragged the bruised and battered Vivian and knocked on the door of the next room, preparing to complete the handover of personnel.
As soon as she opened the door, she was startled by two heads stuck into the floor tiles, with bodies solidified by magic and standing upright like carrots:
"What happened to them?"
"You didn't sleep well last night and tried to attack me, but I beat you up."
Lorne glanced at Bavanshi and Bagster that he had planted in the field and sneered.
After hearing the whole story, Morgan felt ashamed.
Last night, I was so focused on "exchanging feelings" with my sister Vivian that I forgot that the two fairy knights around me were no pushovers either.
As soon as we stopped caring about them, their true natures were revealed and they wanted to secretly take advantage of their roommate.
But he didn't know who to choose, so he just picked the hardest steel plate.
If the other side had not shown mercy, she would have eaten the meal of her two fairy knights in the morning.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault for not disciplining you well enough."
"It doesn't matter. It's not easy."
As the two guardians talked and exchanged hostages, they felt like they were on speaking terms with each other.
"What should we do next? How do we find Albion's tomb?"
"In the southwest corner of the city lives a knowledgeable weaving fairy. She likes to explore different areas nearby and collect medicines and textile materials. Therefore, she is very familiar with the area around Orkney. And I heard that she seems to have discovered some unusual areas recently, which may be related to the tomb of the dead. We can ask her to help as a guide and let her take us to have a look."
"Well, when the three of them wake up, we will go ask the weaving fairy."
Lorne made the final decision, and Morgan nodded happily.
Then, the two of them tacitly dragged the problem children they were responsible for back to the house, and before leaving, they gave each other a lecture on "love".
