I was regarded as a demon god by a witch

Chapter 343 Getting the Law Seed
Ivita told the Hearthstone Witch what he had gained on the third floor of the castle, and said to her: "This should be the holy spring that the Frog Princess said. According to the diary of the Frog Princess, her magical talent comes from obtained from this spring."

The Hearthstone Witch frowned. "From the story in that diary, the father of the Frog Princess—[Lizard King] was a very powerful knight. After he saved the residents in the mountains, he was regarded as a lord."

"But soon corrupted by treasure. The evil within him drew, Marco Anson and his associates."

Ivita sighed: "It seems that the desire for treasure, whether you are a commoner or a great lord, is hard to avoid."

The Hearthstone Witch blinked. "Many people are actually very evil in their hearts. They just haven't realized their own evilness, and they have the conditions to become evil. The so-called lizard king, I think he is like this! Once a person gains power, his personality will change. A person Only after passing this test can his character be more or less stabilized."

"Otherwise, he cannot be entrusted with important tasks."

Ivita looked curiously at the Hearthstone Witch. "Then what's your situation?"

The Hearthstone Witch thought for a moment. "My personality seems to have always been so good, my personality is very stable. I never do good things!"

"..." Evita.

When the Hearthstone Witch was talking to Ivita, a faint light suddenly lit up in the center of the dry holy spring. Although the light was weak, it was very strong.

Compared with the strength of this light, the spirituality of the withered heart of the Black Heart that Iveta had seen was also very inferior.

Hundreds of light spots floating above the holy spring water emerged.

The light spots of these springs are connected with each other, forming lines of light. These lines of light actually form a huge figure, which is actually a giant mermaid.

Her tail is as big as an elephant.

Evita and the Hearthstone Witch stood before her like dwarfs.

The sacred spring water began to spray out some weak streams, as weak as the breathing of a dying person.

"After so many years, there are still people who dare to enter the castle of the Frog Princess. It seems that there are people who despise their own lives, no matter what era they are in."

"The existence of the Law of the Seven Seas makes me too weak."

"There has been no one living here for many years, and no one abides by the laws of the Cross Island. I have lost almost all my strength until I met you. Some of you carry the last trace of people in this castle who are still willing to abide by the laws of the Cross Island. breath, so I was awakened from eternal slumber."

Every scale on the huge mermaid's body is emitting colorful light. When she bowed her head to look at Ivita and the Hearthstone Witch, her long golden hair hangs down naturally like a waterfall, as if falling from heaven to the world generally.

It's a 'super-sized beauty'.

The spring water mermaid said: "I am the patron saint of the holy spring. Although I want to say it so openly, but judging from the current situation, I really have no face to say that I am the patron saint of the spring water."

"You two...one is a witch and the other is a wizard, the worst combination in the entire continent. What is the purpose of you coming to the Fountain of Wisdom?"

The Hearthstone Witch glanced at Evita.

Ivita said warily to the spring water mermaid, "I have too many questions. But I can start by introducing myself. I think this is the beginning of our exchange of respect and mutual trust."

The spring water mermaid was noncommittal.

Ivita said to the spring water mermaid in mid-air: "My name is Ivita Alsace, and this is the guardian of Hearthstone Castle, the Hearthstone Witch."

Hearing Ivita's surname, the spring water mermaid's originally casual eyes suddenly became serious.

The spring water mermaid muttered to herself. "People from the imperial family? It has been 60 years since you came to uphold justice. Where have you been for the past 60 years?!"

Ivita said to the spring water mermaid: "I want to know what happened to this castle 60 years ago, why the frog princess and her territory disappeared, and how many forces are preventing me from investigating?"

The spring mermaid said: "I can tell you all these questions. 60 years ago, the castle of the Frog Princess was attacked by servants of the Black Death, and the Princess Frog disappeared in the castle. No one knows why the servants of the Black Death suddenly attacked this castle The castle, but not only the princess, but even the holy spring was burned, and hundreds of warriors and knights who swore to defend the holy spring died here, and they didn’t even have time to take up arms because of the rush of time.”

"The terrible black death servants destroyed this place in an instant."

Ivita's pupils suddenly narrowed.

Because it is obvious that someone is using the hand of the natural disaster Black Death to destroy the castle and kill the soldiers who are loyal to the sacred spring.

There is a high probability that the Lizard King and Marco Anson did it together.

Although these warriors are all subordinates of the Lizard King, I am afraid that the holy spring water was the object that the knights swore to defend to the death. Even the authority of the lord could not override the knights' belief in the holy spring, so this castle suffered catastrophe.

But this also shows that the Black Death had appeared on the Cross Island 60 years ago, and it was still ruled by the law of the Cross Island.

correct.

Ambrose is not far from here.

That's why the source of the Black Death chased [The Dark Lady of Light] all the way to Ambrose, where she was finally suppressed by the Chitose Fire.

This way everything is connected.

The giant spring water mermaid said: "During that attack, the princess disappeared without a trace. Without the princess, I also lost my strength. I was attacked by the black death madly and almost disappeared."

"Later, there was a new law. During my deep sleep, I didn't know what kind of method was adopted to take away the legal power of our brothers and sisters."

Evita: "You don't know what method? Could it be grafting?"

The gigantic fountain mermaid was lost in thought, running her fingers to her chin. "Hmm...it's possible, but I'm not sure. The real secrets are hidden in the disappeared territory of the Frog Princess. I think the disappeared Frog Princess and Lizard King should still be in that disappeared territory."

"Eternal punishment."

Evita: "Why did their territory disappear, do you know why?"

The giant's spring water mermaid said: "You have a lot of questions. But as the first person I saw when I woke up, I will tell you all. That man named Marco Anson asked the Lizard King and her daughter to prepare There was a magic ceremony, I tried to stop it in a dream, but I failed. But I don’t know what the magic ceremony is..."

"All I know is that the pirates are malicious and evil, and that they created new laws on Cross Island."

"The place where their magic ceremony is held is in the territory you said disappeared. This cliff is actually the edge of the Lizard King's territory."

The Hearthstone Witch glanced at Evita in a panic, because the lizard king was already a fifth-level professional 60 years ago.

It would be troublesome if he was on the vanished territory.

God knows what has become of him in the past 60 years.

The Hearthstone Witch whispered to Ivita: "My lord, in fact, the way to obtain the territory does not necessarily have to be through this route. Let's just take the Doomsday Stone above the castle and let's go."

"I feel like the water here... is too deep. It's useless to study."

Evita also fell into hesitation.

The huge spring mermaid seemed to understand Ivita's thoughts. She said: "Cross Island was originally ruled by six sacred springs, and each spring would choose three heroes and a princess of its own."

"These heroes and princesses are the key to ruling Cross Island, and the person who is recognized by the six springs at the same time is the Duke of Cross Island."

Ivita and the Hearthstone Witch lamented that there is such a powerful law in such a small Cross Island.

But even this kind of law is still calculated by people, and now it is already bleak.

The Hearthstone Witch said: "Very well, but what does this have to do with us?"

The huge spring water mermaid continued as if she didn't hear what the Hearthstone Witch said, "The Doomsday Stone on the top of the castle was installed by the Ice Witch."

"She had promised the Frog Princess that it was something that could absolutely protect her, and it had a powerful magic [Doomsday Bell Curse] attached to it."

Ivita asked, "The Doomsday Bell Curse?"

"Well, I don't know what that is," said the great fountain mermaid.

The Hearthstone Witch sneered. "Ridiculous king, ridiculous princess, you are just barbarians who have not incorporated the laws of the nobility and the laws of the kingdom, and have not joined the holy international system dominated by the church, calling themselves kings."

"Let me tell you what the Doomsday Bell Curse is. It is the witch queen's favorite magic. According to legend, it is a spell created by contract monsters. It has a terrible ability to destroy. It is a powerful magic that will increase in power with the master's strength. People and objects killed by this magic cannot be restored.”

"Someone once rumored that the Witch Queen could use this magic to destroy a city with a population of more than 50 at one time."

"I don't know if it's true or not. Anyway, it's a great magic."

The huge spring water mermaid sighed, "It's a terrible magic. But when the Black Death invaded, the magic that was originally attached to the Doom Stone was not activated."

"So if you want to take it, just take it."

"Just let me tell you that if you agree to one of my requests right now, you'll get everything you want."

Ivita was planning to retreat temporarily and make plans after observing the situation, but now he stopped. "Okay, let's talk about it first."

The huge spring water mermaid said: "In principle, everyone who approaches the holy spring can drink a sip of the holy spring water, heal the injuries of the whole body, and gain some spiritual strength. But now I don't have that power anymore. .”

"If you can help me rescue the frog princess in the lost territory and bring her to me, then I will be able to entertain you two with the holy spring water."

The giant fountain mermaid looked at the Hearthstone Witch. "Those who drink the holy spring water have the chance to be reborn, and the remaining distortions in the body caused by the failure of magic will disappear. Maybe your master doesn't need this spring water, but you do."

The Hearthstone Witch's eyes lit up after hearing half of it. "Your Majesty, should we reconsider..."

Ivita looked at her with contempt, it was you who persuaded me to leave before, and now you are the one who persuaded me to continue.

The Hearthstone Witch wanted to fight for it, and she said to Evita: "I think that power seems to be afraid to show up for some reason, wealth and wealth are in danger. If we don't dare to try, then we will miss a Huge opportunity."

Ivita continued to look at her contemptuously, he wanted to know the hearthstone witch's moral bottom line.

The huge fountain mermaid turned her head and said to Ivita: "The frog princess was once my chosen princess. She was one of the six princesses of Cross Island, so she is a very important existence. The pirates flattered her father. , to get her, it is very unfair to her. In addition, if you can save her, I believe that the princess's territory will be handed over to you, which is a huge territory equivalent to two and a half viscountes."

Ivita's pupils suddenly narrowed.

Because the ice wolf viscount land was swallowed by him forcefully, although he has not fully digested it yet, he does have seven viscount lands.

There are also a bunch of scattered baronies, the independent town of Maple Leaf Town, and several independent knighthoods.

If you add the territory where the frog princess disappeared, you can barely make up the earldom.

Evita frowned. "No one knows what's in the disappeared territory, maybe even the Lizard King's army. It's too dangerous."

"If you can agree, I can also give you an archipelago on the edge of the Cross Island, which is equivalent to the territory of the Viscount." The fountain mermaid continued.

After seeing Ivita showing a look like you are playing with me, she explained: "As part of the law, I can't leave the fountain. But I was not the patron saint of the holy spring at the beginning. I entered voluntarily." The sacred spring, before protecting the sacred spring, was also a mermaid viscount lord."

Evita's pupils narrowed.

He remembered it, and voluntarily threw himself into the flames in exchange for the Three Witches of the East who grew up with Chitose Fire.

This giant mermaid and the three witches of the East are all of the same kind.

"If that's the case...then I can agree..." Ivita reckoned that these things were enough for him to take a risk once.

Just like the Hearthstone Witch said, it would be a coward to dare not fight for such an opportunity.

The spring water mermaid was relieved to see Ivita agreeing. "I know from the flame in your left eye that you are a man of integrity. But I have lost the ability to choose a hero. Sorry, this is my mistake."

"Now I can only give you this."

A bean-shaped object emitting a faint light floated in mid-air and slowly flew in front of Ivita.

Ivita looked suspiciously at the mermaid, the patron saint of the fountain. "This is?"

"In the midst of destruction, there must be new life. This is the seed that emerges from the dry spring." The mermaid said indifferently: "It is one of the bodies of the law of the Cross Island. If you gather six seeds, you only need to plant six seeds on the ground. There will be new six fountains of law, and you will be the new duke. Remember, remember, be careful of your enemies. Although I was kept in the dark 60 years ago, I know that the forces on the enemy side ... very large."

"You are a member of the royal family. I think you will be able to fulfill the obligations of the empire and protect us...your people..."

"Goodbye...Bring the princess here...I will give you new blessings..." The guardian mermaid seemed to have consumed too much, her body turned into light, and then into a spot of light, disappearing into the air.
