Chapter 367: Windhawk
Chapter 367: Windhawk
Sir Ren had made up his mind; the next time, he would definitely save up more attribute points.
At that moment, Bartalov and the others swiftly controlled the Ice Plains Giant Falcon, slowly descending from the sky, while Anna, who was nearby, quickly ran over and arrived at Ren's side.
Anna anxiously examined Ren's injuries, and without hesitation, she began chanting a spell, her hands glowing with green light, and green leaves emitting a faint green radiance started to encircle Ren's body, like a green vine spiraling upwards.
The next second, the green leaves automatically covered Ren's still-healing wounds.
Especially at the waist and abdomen, where the piercing wound was healing, the green light was most intense, and the number of covering leaves was the highest.
Ren felt a cool sensation on his various wounds.
He looked down and saw that even the most severe waist and abdomen piercing wound, at this moment, under Anna's Nature Magic 'Healing Spell' and the combined effect of Ren's top-tier talent 'Rapid Healing', had already started to form scabs.
The injuries were no longer a major concern.
"It's here."
At this moment, on the back of the Bloodplume Horned Eagle, Anna asked with concern, "Sir Ren, was that person just now really an incarnation of a deity?"
"Sir Ren, this is Admiral Hoy, and these two are department heads of the Swordbearer Branch in Minster Province."
Ren, wanting to reassure Anna, spoke lightly.
"Melita, help me find a girl named Lagre in the Norton Clan." Ren thought for a moment and instructed.
"That person just now claimed to be the deity worshipped by the Sea God Cult, and Bartalov, that person, should be the legendary Goddess Hela, right?"
Ren didn't want to take that risk.
"Sir Ren, greetings." The man and woman behind Admiral Hoy slightly bowed, speaking respectfully.
About a quarter of an hour later.
He had also heard a saying, that the deity disdained mortals.
"Yes, it should be her." Bartalov's expression turned solemn, nodding.
"Admiral Hoy, this is Sir Ren, whom I mentioned to you."
Of course, if they were in the Imperial Capital, relying solely on human strength, even the not-yet-fully-recovered Goddess Hela would be wary of the two dozen Imperial Guardians, and she wouldn't be able to handle them.
Ren nodded.
The deity's methods were mysterious and unpredictable. If Ren had some hidden mark of the deity on his body, then his visit to the Norton Clan would bring disaster to the girl Lagre.
If Lagre were to stay in this area for a while longer, Ren would also need to take proper care of the Norton Clan. For the barbarians, they lacked good weapons and sufficient food, and if they could be helped in this regard, the entire Norton Clan's combat strength would be further enhanced.
"Plus, Sir Ren mentioned that the person herself admitted it, so it's undoubtedly her." Bartalov added.
At this moment, Hela, transformed into a black-robed maiden, gazed at the Bloodplume Horned Eagle flying away in the distance, her eyes flashing with unreadable thoughts.
After a moment's thought, Ren decided he should first go to Minster City, at least to inform Luther, about the situation here.
After switching to the Tailor profession, he hadn't had time to level up, and he was still at Tailor Level 1.
"Sir Ren, it's an honor to meet you." Admiral Hoy enthusiastically grabbed Ren's hand, speaking warmly.
"Perfect timing! I have an urgent matter to discuss with Sir Luther, please help me find him."
Even the more powerful male Hunting Windhawk made way immediately, allowing them to pass.
As her figure flickered, she quickly headed towards the deep lair of the giant Windhawks in the Snide Mountains.
[Congratulations, you have defeated a powerful enemy and obtained 24 Golden Skill Points!]
Although he felt they were overly respectful towards him, after all, they were department heads of the Swordbearer Branch, and there was no need for such reverence towards him, a Swordbearer from the distant Minster Province.
[Congratulations, your Thousand Blade King (Epic) profession level has increased!]
Not to mention Luther and he were gold mine partners, and the Snide Family, who had been operating in Minster Province for many years, this matter might hold great significance for them.
On the back of the Bloodplume Horned Eagle, Ren was reviewing the previous battle prompts:
So, as long as they were in a city with the Temple of the Goddess of Monsoons and Oceans, if the Goddess Hela wanted to descend, it wouldn't be an easy task.
Action: Minutes later, Bartalof and the Winter Fortress Academy group rode their Ice Plains Giant Falcons back to the academy, while Sir Reyn and Anna mounted their Bloodplume Horned Eagle Beasts and sped off towards the southern horizon.
Meanwhile, the black-robed girl slowly made her way to the deepest part of the Howling Bay.
A slender, black-robed girl arrived at the Beverly Mountains.
This was because the projection's energy had been completely depleted.
Her figure submerged into the stream, and the next second, she appeared in a stream several miles away.
Another person muttered to themselves, "No wonder, so this is the Bloodplume Horned Eagle Beast."
"Sir Reyn, with such a commotion, how could we not notice?" Lady Velty examined Sir Reyn and couldn't help but smile wryly.
Moreover, there was also a highly formidable individual—the successful ascension of a demigod, the Draconian Empire's Emperor, who was not lightly injured.
The direction they were heading was also towards the south.
However, improving was not difficult.
"What? You're Sir Reyn!" The two stared in surprise and exclaimed.
At the same time.
Sir Reyn spoke frankly about Hela's name, not fearing any trouble from the other party.
Seeing the two Griffin Knights so shocked, both Anna and Sir Reyn were puzzled.
A deity who wanted to hide their presence and had no intention of attacking, with Sir Reyn's current strength, naturally, would not be able to detect them.
Since that was the case, he had nothing to fear.
"I'm a Swordbearer from the Minster Branch, Sir Reyn."
"It's not a projection, just a projection of the Sea God Cult's Goddess Hela."
But Sir Reyn had done it!
Even in the Ferdinand Forest, at the Druid's Ring, when talking about deities, even the powerful Elder Elves showed reverence and spoke with caution.
This made Sir Reyn furrow his brows, as his attribute points were indeed too few.
But Anna was even more worried.
"
"Yes, Sir Luther, you heard right. How could I possibly joke about such a matter?"
After a long while, Anna spoke softly, "Sir Reyn, even if your enemy is truly a deity, I will stand by your side."
Even though she had already developed an intimate relationship with Sir Reyn, her personality remained quite shy.
"I hope you can help me with something. A person is about to pass by the Beverly Pass. Help me kill them."
"It's nothing, just a minor injury!" Sir Reyn waved his hand and said.
"I once saw some records about them in ancient books. Just now, everything about them matched, like the black robe, the girl's form, and their proficiency in water magic, etc."
Above the Duke Snyder Mansion, the loud cry of a Griffin rang out.
S
"Hmm, it seems I need to return to the core territories of the empire quickly, Anna. We're leaving now!" Sir Reyn turned to Anna beside him and said.
With the end of the battle against the projection of Goddess Hela, the Thousand Blade King (Epic) profession level smoothly entered lv12, and Sir Reyn gained 1 attribute point and 1 skill point.
"Sir Reyn, did you just say that you fought against the Sea God Cultist?" Li En exclaimed in disbelief.
Just then, she didn't die or dissipate; she merely hid herself in the flowing stream, leaving the center of the valley.
At that moment, a transparent human figure suddenly emerged from a stream within the glacier valley and instantly transformed into the form of the black-robed girl.
After deducting the 2 attribute points he used in the battle, he now had a total of 1 remaining attribute point and 5 remaining skill points.
Hearing Reyn's words, the two naturally didn't dare to delay and immediately led the way, flying towards the direction of the Snyder Duchy.
Hela knew that even if they continued fighting, there was nothing she could do against Reyn, and it would only bring her shame.
"Reyn, aren't we going to Norton Tribe to find Lady Lagre?" Anna asked curiously.
In other words, in the short term, Reyn could gain a considerable amount of attribute points and skill points by leveling up his tailoring profession.
Half an hour later, inside the Snyder Duchy.
As for the Golden Skill Points, after the previous expenditure of 28 points, there were still 16 points remaining. This time, he gained another 27 points, bringing the total to 40 points at this moment.
Reyn smiled and teased, causing Anna's fair face to blush.
"It's not appropriate to go there now," Reyn shook his head.
"Of course, Sir Reyn, please come with us!"
After a quick conversation, they finally realized what was going on.
Reyn didn't think there was any chance that his opponent would let him off the hook.
"The south?"
At the Minster Swordbearer Branch, Reyn had looked up some related information about the deities. One of the secrets he discovered was that in certain domains where the duties of the deities overlapped, they were usually mortal enemies.
However, Reyn's teasing made Anna's original concern dissipate.
The boy before her, who was not even half her age, had just defeated a projection of a deity in a direct confrontation!
Additionally, he didn't know if Lagre would immediately set off for Minster to meet up with him after receiving the message.
It was Hela, whose aura had significantly weakened.
"Headmaster Bartalov, Lady Velti, you're both here?"
However, one of them, upon seeing the blue-purple wyvernel beneath Reyn, muttered, "Hmm, why does the opponent's appearance look so familiar?"
Furthermore, her speed was even several times faster than that of the Blood Feather Wyvernel.
Reyn nodded.
Once he arrived, he would quickly attract the attention of the monsoon and the ocean goddesses.
"Flying Knight, please state your identity or purpose!" another lion-headed knight demanded.
"No, thank you for your kindness, Headmaster Bartalov. But I don't want to cause trouble for Winter Fortress Academy," Reyn politely declined.
Even if it was just a thread of will projection, he didn't think he had any chance of defeating the other party.
[Congratulations! Your Will (Hidden) attribute has been enhanced!]
The rare mutated wind phoenix, being more human-like, politely bowed its head.
After all, the previous battle had already created a significant rift between them.
Soon, the Blood Feather Wyvernel arrived in the skies above Maen Province.
A middle-aged man, around forty to fifty years old, with a robust build and dressed in the uniform of an Imperial Admiral, nimbly jumped off the lion-headed bird. Behind him followed a man and a woman.
"Of course, Sir Reyn, I'll send someone to notify the Maen Province Swordbearer Branch immediately."
Reyn then controlled the Blood Feather Wyvernel, slightly adjusting their position, and headed southwest at full speed.
"Sir Reyn, are you alright?" At that moment, Melita had rushed to Reyn's side, concern evident on her face.
"Sir Reyn, I suggest we return to the academy. Winter Fortress Academy has advanced barrier spells, and even a deity would find it difficult to enter," Bartalov said as he stepped forward.
"Hmm?" The Wind Phoenix Queen was clearly puzzled.
The Abyssal Goddess Hela before them, whose strength far surpassed her own, was asking for her help in killing a mortal? However, due to the ancient pact between the Wind Phoenix tribe, the Wind Phoenix Queen had no right to refuse.
"The opponent has a trace of my aura, and with this, I can sense their location," Hela said as she stretched out her fair hand. A thumb-sized crystal, formed from solidified black water, floated up and slowly drifted towards the Wind Phoenix Queen.
"A Divine Energy Crystal?!" The Wind Phoenix Queen's eyes lit up with delight.
