Chapter 376: The identity of the chosen one is announced, all parties are shocked, Artemis's archery (5K)

All was quiet.

The moonlight was like water, covering Yeats and the goddess of hunting who were close at hand.

Artemis, who was tall and strong, with her brown hair combed into an elegant wreath-like braid and wheat-colored skin with a natural beauty, looked at Yeats in a daze, her eyes fixed on his silver belt, and she nodded slowly.

The belt transformed from the Moon River is the symbol of the Moonlight God's Chosen One!

There was no need to ask about the identity of the young man in front of him.

Artemis retracted her gaze, took off the silver longbow hanging on her body, looked up at the Plague Knight under the night sky, her eyes gradually became stern, and whispered:

"Well, I'll talk to you in detail after we deal with these impolite guests!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Artemis drove her nimble golden-horned deer, leaped high into the sky, and confronted the Plague Knight on a white horse.

The latter drew his bow and put an arrow on it, and Artemis also drew the bowstring. Two arrows with completely different lights were constantly brewing on the bowstring!

The next moment.

Artemis' arrow shot out, and the surging silver light beam almost pierced through the sky, shook the canyon, and swallowed up the withering arrow shot by the Plague Knight. The light continued to spread towards the Plague Knight!

Boom! A tide of silver light engulfed the Plague Knight.

Yeats' eyes widened.

It's more like a light cannon than an arrow! Coach, I also want to learn this move.

The kind that can fire a star destroyer with one arrow! Artemis's domain is called [Hunting Domain]. In this domain, she will mark enemies with moonlight, and arrows will inflict more severe blows on marked enemies.

Plague Knight fought with Daisy for a long time, and although he had the upper hand, Daisy was experienced and had absorbed a lot of power of faith during the trip to Blackreef Port, so she showed no signs of defeat.

When Ye Zhi successfully ascended to the Moonlight God's Chosen, the blood moon that originally covered the sky dissipated, and the connection between the moon and the material plane was reestablished. Artemis rushed to the battlefield and presented a unilateral suppression of the Plague Knight! Seeing that the situation was not good, the Plague Knight tried to escape, and Daisy immediately cast the "Illusion·Mirror Flower Water Moon", condensing hundreds of mirrors in the sky, reflecting bright light, making it difficult for the Plague Knight to discern the retreat.

The golden-horned deer under Artemis's seat neighed loudly and charged with great force, knocking the white horse under the Plague Knight onto the sea of ​​clouds. Then Artemis also broke into the sea of ​​clouds. In the holy battlefield that Yeats could not see, the sea of ​​clouds was surging, thunder was rolling, and the intensity of the fierce battle had not decreased.

Daisy flashed to Yeats's side and exhaled.

"I am so tired..."

"I originally wanted to watch the show, but I didn't expect to protect others from disaster for nothing."

Daisy put one hand on her waist, looking a little helpless, and sighed:

"I came here for the Moon God. It would be fine if I did nothing, but my God chose me to be here..."

“Now you are also chosen by the Moon God.” Ye Zhi reminded kindly.

Daisy rolled her eyes at Yeats with a meaningful look, which meant, without me there to stop the Plague Knight, how would you have the chance to climb the Moon River?

Yeats chuckled twice.

No matter what, the purpose of this trip to the Moonlight Sect can be said to have been successfully achieved.

The rioting dark night divinity in the soul realm has been successfully suppressed.

The Moonlight Sect's spells that were previously unusable have now been restored, and their power is far greater than before! In front of Celine and the others, becoming the Moonlight God's Chosen also means that he will have a very high say in the Moonlight Sect in the future.

Moreover, the title of the Duke of Honeysuckle will be further known across the continent as the co-elected identity of the gods of art and moonlight! On the one hand, Ye Zhi planned to let Celine continue to serve as the high priest of moonlight and not interfere too much.

On the other hand, I am currently chosen by the five gods: Moonlight, Dark Night, Art, Mist, and Magic.

Simply put, out of the seven days in a week, you can only have rest on Saturday and Sunday.

On weekdays, I have to practice different styles diligently.

The two identities of Dark Night and Mist chosen by God correspond to the aliases of Sherlock and Loki respectively, and are not known to the world.

Only a few high-ranking members of the Mages Guild knew about the Magic God's Choice.

The identities of the Chosen One of Art and the Chosen One of Moonlight are public. When Ye Zhi competes in the Knight Conference in the second half of the year, he also plans to use the Moonlight School as his main means of combat.

With his current combat power, he can be said to be at the quasi-seventh ring and half a step to the peak of perfection!

In other words, except for the seven-ring sanctuary and epic monsters, they can easily crush the six-ring masters and emperor-level monsters! "In general, you also gave me some good fun this time."

Daisy smiled and reached out her hand, touching Yeats's head. From her palm, a misty divinity surged.

Without the constraints of the divinity of the dark night, Yeats could now absorb the divinity with confidence and boldness, so he opened up his soul realm and brought these misty divinities into the vicinity of the Tree of Life.

Under the stimulation of these misty divinities, the way of the trickster officially broke through the sixth ring and became the third professional way that is expected to open up new realms!

After being promoted to a six-ring trickster, he gains a new ability called [Blessing - Hand of Spell-Stealing].

Ye Zhi's eyes lit up.

This blessing is what I have been looking forward to for a long time!

After all, my magic level is relatively weak. With the Spell Thief, it doesn't matter if I don't know magic... I can just steal from other mages! The Spell Thief can steal the spells cast by others and release a copy. If you master the spell, you can also steal the other party's experience and knowledge of the spell.

After promoting Yeats, Daisy yawned lazily, seeming a little tired, and said lazily:

"Next time I think of something interesting, I'll come to you again... You should concentrate on training with Artemis for a while. Her strength is no worse than Skach's."

"Funny stuff, like?"

Daisy smiled evilly and said, "For example, I could give you a golden apple and invite the Moonlight Goddess, Magic Goddess, and Dark Night Goddess to be my guests."

Ye Zhi: “…”

I have a new solution to this problem: squeeze it into apple juice. Next question.

Daisy's voice faded away.

Above the sky.

The battle between Artemis and Plague Knight seemed to be coming to an end.

Following a deafening explosion, a horrible miasma filled the sea of ​​clouds and was soon completely melted away by a burst of bright moonlight.

Artemis looked displeased, and emerged from the sea of ​​clouds alone riding a golden-horned deer and landed in front of Yeats.

"He ran away..." Artemis said regretfully, "I wanted to take him away from the city to prevent the plague from affecting more people, but I didn't expect him to find an opportunity..."

"That should not be the Plague Knight's real body, but just a container that carries the Plague Knight's divinity and transforms into the image of the Plague Knight." Yeats deduced.

Artemis looked at Yeats in surprise and said:

"In your opinion, who is the true identity of the Plague Knight?"

A figure appeared in Ye Zhi's mind, but he was not sure, so he changed the subject and cleared his throat:

"The most urgent task is to heal the Moon Goddess Tree and let Tsukishima rise into the night sky again... What do you think?"

Artemis nodded slightly, looked at Ye Zhi approvingly, and said, "Although the people from the God Realm took advantage of us this time, you performed well and greatly recovered the losses."

Under the bright moonlight, the goddess of hunting, riding a golden-horned deer, looked at Yeats with a pair of smart and sharp eyes and smiled:

"I saw the courage and bravery you displayed in Moon River... it's worthy of praise."

She took off the silver longbow hanging on her body, along with the quiver full of arrows, and handed it to Ye Zhi.

"This is a gift for the Moonlight God's Chosen One. Please accept it."

While the other party was observing Ye Zhi, Ye Zhi was also carefully looking at the goddess who came late.

Artemis, goddess of the hunt.

Known as the "Mistress of Beasts and Lord of the Wilderness", she is free and independent, loves outdoor life, and is the patron saint of virgins.

His archery skills are among the best among all gods, and are only slightly inferior to the God of Light. He is a powerful subordinate god in the camp of the Moonlight Goddess.

The longbow given by Artemis was certainly not an ordinary item. Yeats took a quick look and found that it was much better than the master's longbow and was already an epic weapon.

But Ye Zhi was not in a hurry to accept the gift. Instead, he pondered and said, "I have a question. Why didn't you arrive earlier? This would also prevent Moon Island and the Moon Goddess Tree from falling into crisis..."

"They created the blood moon to block the teleportation spell," Artemis said. "I live in the Endless Forest in the south. Originally, I could use the teleportation spell to quickly return to Moon Gorge Castle, but due to the trick of the Plague Knight, it took a lot of trouble..."

Yeats suddenly realized.

Artemis is actually a deity living in the prime material plane.

This means that meeting Artemis does not require crossing the barriers of the plane.

Yeats always thought of his teacher, Scach, who lived in the film world, and often thought about crossing the "wall".

In the final analysis, only by obtaining the Ring of the Nibelung can one freely travel between the various planes...

Yeats accepted Artemis's longbow and said solemnly:

"Goddess Artemis, I have a humble request."

"What?"

"I want to learn archery from you!"

Ye Zhi said: "It's the fighting skill you just used to shoot out a light cannon with one arrow... I'm very interested!"

Artemis was slightly startled, then pursed her lips and readily agreed: "No problem!"

As the subordinate god of the moonlight goddess, Artemis is responsible for teaching the chosen ones.

Besides, the young man in front of her was very much in line with her aesthetic, and Artemis didn't mind giving him some extra pointers on archery.

That night.

Artemis lived in the hills behind the Temple of the Moon.

The entire Moonlight Sect was in a violent shock!

The disease of the Moon Goddess Tree, the fall of the Floating Moon Island, the birth of the Moonlight Chosen... Each of these events is enough to cause a strong earthquake within the sect!

And now, these three major events happened at the same time, which was really too much for the elders of the Moonlight Sect to bear.

Dawn breaks in the sky.

Inside the sect, the lights are still bright.

Many believers sat in the hall, discussing heatedly what had just happened.

"That Moonlight Chosen One is the famous Duke of Honeysuckle. I saw it with my own eyes!"

"I didn't expect that a person outside the sect would become the Chosen One..."

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

"He removed the root of the disease at the bottom of the sacred tree and was the first to reach the Moon River in times of crisis. He is the chosen one of God and everyone expects him to be!"

Celine sat among the crowd, listening quietly to everyone's argument, as if isolated from the world, with a dazed look in her eyes.

Under the blood moon, the silver-haired boy called upon the moon god and almost single-handedly dispelled the shadow of the blood moon, leaving an indelible impression on Celine.

It was also thanks to Yeats that the culprit that caused the plague in Moongorge was cured so quickly.

Celine's eyes gradually became firm and she spoke slowly.

The moment she opened her mouth, the entire hall fell silent. Celine had a lot of say in the sect.

“I think that although Yeats is a member outside the sect, it is understandable that he became the Moonlight God’s Chosen One.”

"Besides, even the goddess of hunting, Artemis, has personally acknowledged him... All we need to do is invite Duke Yeats to join the sect and preside over the sect's affairs as the chosen one of God!"

Celine's proposal was unanimously approved by the Presbyterian Church and ordinary believers.

At dawn, Celine went to Yeats's house in person and explained her invitation to Yeats to join the Moonlight Sect.

Ye Zhi declined, saying, "Although I am the Moonlight God's Chosen One, I am not interested in the affairs of the sect. I think it would be more appropriate for you to serve as the high priest, Your Excellency Celine."

Xilin hesitated and said, "But..."

Ye Zhi smiled slightly and said, "I saw the bond between you and the moon when you climbed the Moon River. It is most appropriate for you to preside over the Moonlight Sect."

Xilin was moved, bowed deeply to Ye Zhi, and said respectfully:

"Thank you, Lord Chosen One!"

In the afternoon.

Phoenix came to say goodbye, and handed the 'Immortal Sword' Durandal, which was inserted into the scabbard, back to Yeats with both hands, with a look of emotion in his eyes, and said:

"If you hadn't given me this sword when I was fighting against the Fester, I would have died... Please accept my gratitude and respect, Lord Yeats."

Ye Zhi noticed that the Hospitaller Knights badge on Phoenix had been removed, his eyes moved slightly, and he inquired:

"Sir, where are you going next?"

"To be honest, I haven't thought about it yet."

Phoenix sighed and said, "I originally thought that the Knights who save the dying and heal the wounded would be my destiny, but the Lord of Plague who plunged the world into pain and despair seems to have a great connection with the Plague Knight who appeared yesterday..."

"I just can't get over this hurdle in my heart, so I decided to leave the Knights and travel for a while."

Phoenix smiled brightly again and said, "Maybe I'll go to the Knights' Conference in Roland Kingdom to join in the fun, but I can't say for sure. Who knows what will happen in the future?"

Phoenix shrugged.

The image of Phoenix's bravery and fearlessness in the face of the festering man appeared before his eyes. Ye Zhi pondered for a moment and said:

"Would you consider serving as a knight under my command?"

Phoenix was slightly stunned, and looked at Ye Zhi in surprise, with a look of disbelief on his face.

Ye Zhi repeated it again and said with a smile: "My subordinates need talents like you who are proficient in medical skills."

"If you join, you can temporarily keep the Immortal Sword 'Durandel'. The reward will definitely be higher than that of the Hospitaller Knights... What do you think?"

With Ye Zhi's current wealth, he is fully capable of hiring a six-ring master.

In fact, when one reaches the level of a Six-Ring Master, he no longer lacks wealth and resources, and his loyalty to others is more out of spiritual considerations.

Phoenix thought for a long time.

The other party is a household name, the Chosen One of Art, and now he has become the Chosen One of Moonlight, holding an irreplaceable position in the Moonlight Sect.

It is a pleasure to cooperate with him, and I can also use this time to think about how I should get along with the Holy See in the future.

"I see."

Phoenix took a deep breath, knelt on one knee, and performed the knight's salute.

"In the name of Phoenix, Sir Yeats Bronte, I am willing to swear on my life that I will become a knight under your command and fight for your honor!"

*Two days later.

The chaos in Yuexia Fort gradually subsided.

The plague that ravaged the city was also significantly brought under control.

The news that Yeats became the Moonlight Chosen One spread across the sea and reached the Golden Lion royal family.

Queen Theresa hurriedly brought the letter to the Sun Fighting Lion to read together. They then exchanged glances and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

"Ye Zhi, didn't you go to the Moonlight Sect to learn combat skills?"

Lieyang Doushi's tone was strange.

"How come in the blink of an eye, you have become the Moonlight Chosen One!?"

Theresa was equally amazed and whispered, "The co-election of the gods of art and moonlight is unprecedented in history!"

"Not only is he unprecedented, but if he opens the Holy Land in the future, he will hopefully master both areas at the same time!"

Lieyang Fighting Lion said seriously: "But he is so outstanding that he must be feared by the Church. The previous king set a strategy to suppress the Church with the Mage Guild. We must continue to follow it and provide assistance to Ye Zhi when necessary."

Theresa nodded and said, "Your thoughts are exactly what I think!"

Kingdom of Roland, Fontainebleau, Hall of Mirrors.

The young and handsome blond boy, wearing stockings and high-heeled boots, was flipping through the parchment scroll in his hand, his face full of surprise.

"Yeats Browndi, becomes the Moonlight Chosen One?!"

King Louis' tone was full of surprise.

"Is this news really true?"

"Your Majesty, it has been confirmed time and again that the current Moonlight God Chosen is none other than the Duke of Honeysuckle, Ye Zhi!"

"But he is clearly the chosen one of the gods of art, and he can even be favored by the Moon God?"

Louis looked a little incredulous.

“This is truly the first time this has ever happened.”

The courtier said, "But neither the Moonlight School nor the Art School has an advantage in the duel. The honor of the champion of this year's Knight Conference will definitely belong to Roland..."

Before he finished speaking, Louis pointed at the old courtier's nose and scolded him, "Foolish fellow! How can the meaning of polytheism be simply summarized by the outcome of a duel! Yeats Bronte, his deeds can already be called art!"

"I don't need someone who disrespects art like this in my court... someone come here!"

Looking at the angry young king, an old courtier was calm and thought to himself:

"Your Majesty seems to be quite interested in Yeats Bronte..."

"I guess it's because of his sense of smell for his own kind. His Majesty the Sun King is also the one and only chosen one in this world..."

Moon Gorge Fort.

In the study.

Gray realized it later, her face full of shock, and she shouted, "What? The rumor in the city about the Chosen One of the Moonlight is about you?!"

Ye Zhi: “…”

What a quick reflex arc!

Ye Zhiyun said calmly that when you are away from home, your identity is not worth mentioning and strength is the key.

"The champion prize of the Knights' Conference is the golden sword [Giuvaius] that my foster father specifically requested. It contains a fragment of the Spear of Longinus. I must get it..."

Yeats thought to himself:

"First learn archery from Artemis, then experience the thrill of shooting someone in the face with one arrow at the tournament!"
