Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 1063 Blessing of the Lake Spirit

"Don't, don't give up, the elf in the lake is there, we'll be there soon!"

An Jie's voice transmission sounded in the boy's ear.

At this moment, An Jie's cheeks were already puffed out, her face was flushed, obviously extremely uncomfortable, but when the boy turned his head, he met the girl's stubborn eyes.

Helpless, the boy had no choice but to temporarily give up his plan to go back, took the girl's arm, and began to swim towards the bottom of the lake at an accelerated speed.

Strange to say, after he made up his mind, the inexplicable resistance seemed to disappear without warning.

Unexpectedly, the boy touched the rocks at the bottom of the lake easily.

"There!"

An Jie pointed out another location for him, and the young man looked forward, and finally found that there seemed to be something buried in the mud at the bottom of the lake in front of him, emitting a faint fluorescence.

The boy hurriedly swam over, stretched out his hand to push away the mud, and found that hidden under the mud was a golden treasure chest.

The young man was speechless at the sight. It is a good thing to find a treasure chest at the bottom of the lake, but they are here to find the elves in the lake, not to hunt for treasure. What's the use of giving him a treasure chest now?

An Jie behind her was almost unable to hold her breath, large bubbles gushed out of her mouth, but even at this moment, she was still firmly signaling to the boy to open the treasure chest.

At this moment, the young man really had no other choice but to follow An Jie's suggestion and quickly grope around the treasure chest with one hand.

Soon, he didn't know what mechanism he touched, and with a bang, the lid of the treasure chest bounced off.

"Well……"

Suddenly, a large piece of golden light erupted from the treasure chest, reflecting the entire seabed into a golden space.

Under the flashing golden light, the young man subconsciously closed his eyes, and then he felt his mouth and nose relax for a while, and he actually breathed fresh air.

The boy opened his eyes in surprise, and as far as he could see, it was An Jie who was panting heavily like him.

Both of them looked up in surprise, and found that they were still at the bottom of the sea just now, but at this time around them, along the treasure chest as the center, a transparent knot with a width of four to five meters rose. Boundary, it is this enchantment that excludes the sea water and provides them with fresh air.

"Are you okay?"

The boy helped An Jie up, found a coat from the inventory, and put it on for her.

"No, it's alright..."

An Jie immediately shook her head.However, even though she said that, she was holding her arms at the same time, and her lips were still trembling slightly. She didn't know whether it was from the cold or from the fear of hydrophobia. Wrapped tightly inside.

Fortunately, both of them have awakened physiques, so such a setback will not affect them too much.

"Wow..."

There was a sound of water flowing without warning, and both of them looked up in surprise, only to find a transparent body drilled out of the opened treasure chest, floating in front of their eyes.

The whole body is composed of clear water, which finally condenses into the shape of a human body.

It can be clearly seen from the figure that this is a long-haired woman with no clothes on her body and a ring of water around her head, but due to her transparent body, she cannot be seen clearly.

"Thank you, young adventurer..."

The ethereal voice echoed in the small enchantment, and Qing Shui's body did not move to speak, so the two couldn't tell whether the voice came from the woman's mouth or not.

"You, you are the elf of the lake?"

An Jie froze for a moment, then her eyes lit up, and she asked excitedly.She seems to have forgotten her hydrophobia, amazing resurrection ability.

"Do you remember me? I'm from the Camille family!"

An Jie pointed at herself and asked expectantly.

"I still remember that although the human race is a short-lived thing, I still remember that the blood flowing on your body..."

The lake elf said in a soft tone.

Her voice is like an old man who has experienced a long life and has disillusioned the world, wise and elegant.

"I helped your ancestor a hundred years ago and gave him the Holy Sword of the Lake..."

"Yep!"

An Jie nodded repeatedly when she heard this, and asked with a smile: "That's my ancestor! Well, I heard from my father that if you find the spirit of the lake, you will be blessed by the spirit of the lake? Is it true?"

Hearing this, the elf looked down at An Jie, and nodded slightly: "It's true."

An Jie smiled even happier, and hurriedly said: "Great, please give me your blessing! I have a wish that I really want to come true!"

"I refuse!" The elf shook his head unexpectedly.

"Ugh?"

An Jie froze for a moment, then subconsciously asked: "Why?"

"Because I gave the holy sword to your ancestors, but your ancestors did not fulfill their promise with me..."

"Promise?" An Jie was a little puzzled, she had never heard her father say anything about it.

"Yes."

The elf in the lake sighed, and said lightly: "We water elves are the guardians of the ocean. People on the mainland are destroying the sea all the time. In order to protect the ocean, we elves will wander around, looking for people with the appearance of kings on the mainland, and giving them blessings, in exchange for their promise, in the When they become queens in the future, they will serve as the spokespersons of the elves of the lake on land and help us protect the sea."

Speaking of this, the elf in the lake glanced at An Jie, shook his head and said, "I gave your ancestors a precious holy sword, but your ancestors didn't fulfill their due duties. He became a queen and only cared about enjoying it." own kingship, but forgot the promise to protect the sea.”

"This……"

An Jie stared blankly at the elf in the lake, and wanted to refute, but couldn't speak at all.If what the elf in the lake said was true, no matter how he explained it, he couldn't excuse his ancestors from the crime.

After hesitating for a while, An Jie suddenly bowed deeply to the lake elf.

"I'm sorry for the previous agreement. I apologize to you on behalf of the Camille family. I promise that when I grow up, I will fulfill the agreement with you on behalf of my ancestors. Please trust our Camille family again!"

"Oh?"

An Jie's actions seemed to have stunned the elf in the lake for a moment, she looked down at An Jie, and said noncommittally, "You mean, if I bless you again, you will fulfill the previous agreement? "

"No, it has nothing to do with blessings."

An Jie shook her head resolutely, looked up and said seriously: "This is something that our Camille family has not done. No matter what your attitude is, I will definitely finish it."

"yes……"

The lake elf stared at An Jie's eyes for a while, but didn't see any hesitation in them.Therefore, she knew that what the child said was serious, not for any other purpose, but just because she didn't want to shame her family's honor.

Staring at An Jie for a long time, after a while, she breathed out, looked away, shook her head and said, "Forget it, you mortals forget promises too easily, I can no longer trust you..."

"Yes... I'm sorry..."

An Jie lowered her head in a sense of loss, and apologized.She understood that since the water elf said so, it meant that the so-called blessing might have been wasted, and they just made a trip in vain.Now that she has no extravagant expectations, perhaps knowing about the ancestors' family can be regarded as a kind of gain.

"only……"

However, just when An Jie was about to return without success, the lake elf said again: "Although I can't trust the members of the Camille family, it's just that it's true that you saved me, so in order to repay you For the kindness that liberated me, I will still give you blessings in return."

"what?"

An Jie blinked, and it took a while to react, and she was pleasantly surprised: "So, you are going to fulfill our wish?"

She thought it was over when she got here today, but she didn't expect that things would turn around so easily.An Jie suddenly turned her head to look at the boy excitedly, but found that the boy was looking at the elf in the lake, and he didn't seem very excited.

"No, not you."

The elf shook his head and explained: "Little girl, you may have misunderstood. To get the blessing of the lake elf, there are conditions. First, we only give one blessing each time. It is impossible to give it to both of you at the same time." Second, the blessings of the elves in the lake will only be given to future kings. If you are an ordinary person, no matter how much you do, you will not be able to receive my blessing..."

Speaking of this, the elf in the lake glanced at the two of them: "However, fortunately, both of you have the qualifications of kings, and you will become kings who dominate one side in the future, so... choose, my blessing can only be given to you." Give it to one of you!"

"one person?"

An Jie froze for a moment, muttered something, and couldn't help turning to look at the boy.

At this time, the boy just happened to look at her.

The two looked at each other for a while, and then suddenly looked at the water elf at the same time, and pointed at each other in unison.

"Give it to him!"

"give her!"

After finishing speaking, both of them looked at each other in surprise.

An Jie immediately wanted to say something, but was preempted by the boy.

"Idiot, what are you talking about? Didn't you always want this blessing? After finally coming here, of course it is for you!"

"But, but, your engagement..."

An Jie blinked, wanting to refute.But the young man shook his head directly, and put his hands on the back of his head pretending to be relaxed: "It's just a marriage contract, I will settle it myself, besides, I just said it casually at the beginning, so I don't need to waste the precious opportunity to make a wish."

As he said that, he turned his head and looked An Jie up and down: "Besides, you have to think clearly, there is no cure for your hydrophobia, if you don't seize this opportunity, you will stay away from the water forever ..."
