The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 158: Dagon is a god, and the Lady of the Lake is also a god
After killing the cultist priest, the remaining cultists seemed to have lost their souls.

There was only confusion in his eyes.

The previous fearlessness disappeared in an instant.

But the crowd remained ruthless.

Chop it all up.

He stabbed each of the fallen cultists again.

Until it is confirmed that there is no one left alive.

Lin En then walked over to the portrait where the cultists had been kneeling in worship.

Only then did he realize it.

For some reason, the evil god Dagon in the portrait seemed so lifelike.

It was like it wasn't just an ordinary painting.

Moreover, the more he stared at the painting, the more he felt the dark aura in it.

It was as if some slippery, wet tentacle was licking his brain.

Just as Lin En tried to divert his attention from the painting...

He suddenly found that the scene around him suddenly changed.

I found myself in a dark deep sea.

A vague, dark demonic figure stood in front of him.

can not see clearly.

But from its outline, it can be identified that it is the owner of the portrait - the evil god Dagon.

"Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn."

There was an obscure murmur that echoed directly in his mind.

Lynn frowned.

He suppressed the discomfort in his mind and crossed his hands in a seal.

A soft white light enveloped him, instantly dispelling the whispering in his head.

Heliotrop Sign.

The sixth of the Demon Hunter's five seals.

Its function is to resist magical attacks, especially mental attacks.

With the master-level Heliotrop Seal protecting Lynn's spirit, the dark illusions around him could no longer do anything to him.

It didn't take long.

All illusions disappeared.

Lynn blinked.

I found myself still inside the cave.

But there is always a cold feeling in my body that lingers.

He frowned.

Call up the properties panel.

However, he saw a paragraph of text that had never appeared before in the golden text that emerged:

"state:"

"Mark of the Deep Sea (You have been marked by the evil god Dagon. If you approach the evil god Dagon's territory, you will immediately suffer his endless wrath)"

"Lynn, what's wrong with you?"

Noticing something was wrong with Lynn, the others came over with concern.

"you……"

Although there were no obvious marks, Geralt always felt an indescribable coldness from Lynn that he had never felt before.

Regis didn't say anything.

But there was also an expression of worry in his eyes and on his face.

Only Maximus, who didn't know magic, couldn't see anything unusual.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. The smell in here is too bad. Let's go out quickly."

In reality, Lin En himself wasn't too worried, because the one sleeping in the dark water, served by the underwater inhabitants, was just a shadow of the true evil god Dagon.

No one knows how far the distance is between His true self and this world.

Even if it was just an incarnation, it was by chance that it arrived in this world through the intersection of the celestial spheres.

This is also the reason why the evil god Dagon will be killed by demon hunters like a boss in the future.

Besides, the evil god Dagon is a god, and the Lady of the Lake is also a god.

He could have asked the Lady of the Lake to help him remove this disgusting mark while handing in the task.

Taking a step back...

Even if the Lady of the Lake couldn't do it, the worst that could happen was that she would stay away from the ocean and lakes from now on.

Itadagon is an evil god related to water. Could he come to land and cause trouble for me?

……

Everyone walked out of the swamp and went back along the way they came.

Behind him was a burning, ruined village.

Before leaving, they did not forget to set a few fires to purify the evil in this place.

On the way back to Lake Seravi, Maximus stole several glances at Regis.

At first, the high-level vampire pretended to appreciate the flowers and plants on the roadside and did not pay attention to the gaze of the knight-errant.

It was not until the latter's gaze had been fixed on him for so long that it became offensive that Regis symbolically turned his gaze away.

Give the other person time to react and turn his head quickly.

When they set up camp to rest on the road, Maximus volunteered to go out to find firewood and also called Lin En.

The two easily found enough firewood near their campsite.

Just when Lin En was about to go back, Maximus finally couldn't help but speak.

"Wait, Master Lin En, don't be so anxious to return to the camp. I have something I want to discuss with you in private."

In front of Lin En's eyes, which actually knew the answer but pretended to be puzzled, Maximus continued to speak haltingly.

"It's about... uh, you know... about Lord Regis..."

Lynn spread his hands and said, "Sir Regis? May he live long."

Maximus swallowed hard and finally said.

"No, I mean... about that aspect of him... Speaking of which, Master, aren't you a demon hunter? Haven't you spent your whole life chasing and hunting creatures like him?"

Lynn smiled and said, "Monster hunters only kill human monsters."

Maximus was stunned for a moment: "You mean, Mr. Regis will not harm anyone? But..."

Lynn explained with a smile.

"You want to say 'a monster is a monster after all, right?' But don't forget, Sir Maximus. Without him, it would be much more difficult for us to complete the Lady of the Lake's commission."

"From an objective point of view, he has been directly involved in rescuing the Duchess. Isn't that enough to dispel your concerns?"

"He's had countless opportunities to kill us since we met him in Brugge, but did he do it?"

Maximus thought about it carefully, and his expression softened slightly.

"Well, I have to admit that what you said does make some sense."

Seeing that the Knight Ranger was willing to listen to his advice, the Witcher smiled again.

"What I said certainly makes sense. Although I don't agree with those elves who burned, killed, and looted in the name of freedom, I'm not a damn racist or a human supremacist."

"What's more, humans aren't always gentle when it comes to treating their fellow humans."

Maximus licked his dry lips: "Then you know what he is... I mean..."

Maximus was embarrassed to ask directly "What kind of monster is it", but Lynn understood what he meant.

"He is a high-level vampire, a very dangerous and powerful being, far superior to ordinary blood-sucking creatures."

"Vampires? Oh my god."

Maximus touched his neck reflexively.

Check your neck for teeth marks.
