Vivian noticed that Hao Ren was studying the mural. She came over and asked, "Doesn't it look weird?"
"What the hell is this painting?" Hao Ren knew that Vivian had inquired about the church when she was in Lamberg, so he turned and asked.
Vivian shrugged and said, "This is their goddess."
Hao Ren said, "... Their goddess looks like this?!"
"Abstract." Vivian frowned as she looked at the absurd and weird picture. "To be honest, I also think that their painting of the goddess is a little too ugly. They are not afraid that the goddess will destroy the world again when she sees herself painted like this."
Hao Ren was speechless as he looked at the "goddess" that was casually painted with thick black and red paint and fluorescent powder. He had no idea what the people of the Disciples of Glory were thinking. He wondered what would happen if the followers of Raven 12345 (if there were any) painted this thing for her. Optimistically speaking, even being struck by lightning a hundred times a day would not be enough to stop it. At the same time, he was a little impressed by the religious painters of the Disciples of Glory. To be able to draw something so irregular was a skill. The goddess looked so abstract that it must have been hard on her followers.
Vivian looked at the mural for a while before turning her eyes away. "You can continue your study. Such an ugly goddess gives me a headache."
Who would not have a headache looking at this thing? Hao Ren lost interest on the spot. He returned to the center of the church and found that Lily had taken off her mask and was now sniffing the ground. Y'zaks was drawing green runes in the air, studying the energy remnants in the vicinity in a demonic way. Wuyue was creating a water ball in the air and letting Lil Pea swim in it. This last one was useless for the mission itself, but it was the most creative. Who could come up with this if they did not have the leisure to count while munching on melon seeds?
However, there seemed to be no evidence left in the church. Hao Ren was hoping to find the fluctuations left behind by the opening of the portal. Unfortunately, there was nothing here except a big pit and a headache-inducing abstract goddess painting.
When Lil Pea saw Hao Ren passing by, she immediately leaped in the water ball and landed on Hao Ren's arm like an armband. Hao Ren looked through the rectangular window in the lower part of the church (it was a rectangular hole, not sure what it was for, but it allowed one to see outside). He remembered the scene described by the noble knight who was responsible for guarding the Orb the night the Orb disappeared.
There was an earthquake, a strange light pillar in the sky, the lake water was boiling, and a strange phosphorescent light floated up from the bottom of the lake.
He decided to go to the bottom of the lake to see what was going on.
The Disciples of Glory had not sent anyone to search the bottom of the Blood Lake. On the one hand, the lake was sacred, and it was said that the sacred remains of the previous popes were buried under the island in the middle of the lake. So, no one dared to expand the search to the bottom of the lake. On the other hand, the water of the Beinz Blood Lake was really strange. Ordinary people, even highly skilled church knights, would quickly lose consciousness and contract a strange disease when immersed in the water. The condition worsened with the depth of the dive. So, until now, no one had checked the situation at the bottom of the lake.
However, Hao Ren planned to dive down and have a look. He instinctively felt that this was a suspicious blind spot.
Due to the tight security outside, they could not go out through the main gate. They teleported directly back to the shore of the lake. Hao Ren shared his thoughts with them. Nangong Wuyue suddenly muttered, "Are you sure you want to go down? This water is not normal. What if there is a contagious disease? "
"Can't you control the water? You can also cure all diseases. "Hao Ren looked at Nangong Wuyue." You even tested it before coming here. The water in the Blood Lake is not special to you, right? "
"I heard that the deeper the Blood Lake, the more obvious the strange power contained in the water. The bottom of the lake is a forbidden zone that no one has ever successfully set foot in." Nangong Wuyue was a little uneasy. "If I start to lose scales, you have to be responsible for curing me."
"Don't worry, I have the support of a genuine goddess." Hao Ren waved his hand in an imposing manner. However, the moment he waved his arm, he felt something light on his arm. Something shiny jumped out of his body. Then, he heard a splashing sound coming from the lake not far away.
Lil Pea jumped out again!
The little one had been brought out by Hao Ren a few times. Now that she had finally let down her guard against the vast outside world, she began to be curious about everything. This time, when she saw such a large pool of water (albeit red), the little one suddenly forgot the thrilling scene of almost being washed away by the river. She happily jumped into the lake when Hao Ren waved his arm!
"Oh my god!" Hao Ren exclaimed and rushed to the lake. Under the moonlight, he only saw a few spots of phosphorescence flashing across the surface of the lake. The little mermaid was nowhere to be seen.
Vivian panicked. "Hurry up and get her out!"
Nangong Wuyue did not need to be told. She jumped into the water and completed her transformation the moment she entered the water. She froze her clothes into a ball of ice and threw it ashore. Then, with a flick of her golden-red tail, she dived into the water. Hao Ren and the rest waited anxiously on the shore for a while. Finally, they saw a light red water ball floating up from the lake. Lil Pea was happily swimming in the water ball. The little one seemed to want to swim out of the water ball, but Nangong Wuyue controlled the water flow so that the little one could only swim around the center of the water ball.
Nangong Wuyue poked her head out of the lake and caught the little one. She tossed her to Hao Ren. "Look after your daughter! Don't let her die! "
Hao Ren quickly hugged the little mermaid. The little mermaid wriggled restlessly in Hao Ren's arms and spat out water. She did not seem to like the salty water of the Blood Lake, but other than that, there was nothing wrong with her.
Seeing that Lil Pea was still full of energy, Hao Ren nodded with a dull expression. "Looks like the lake is really fine, at least for Lil Pea..."
Wuyue leaped out of the water with a splash. She needed to put on her clothes if she wanted to transform back into her human form, so she just wobbled to Hao Ren in her mermaid form. "Why does this kid like to die so much? She has been through hell and high water ever since she was born."
Hao Ren thought for a moment and it was true. Lil Pea was boiled and hatched. The first thing she did after birth was to jump on the burning gas stove. She was interested in the knife rack in the kitchen and loved to suddenly jump on the ground when the family was walking around. Finally, she often played with the cat as a fish.
Hao Ren immediately hugged Lil Pea and did not dare to let go. It would have been better if he did not recall it. Now that he recalled it, he suddenly realized that the child was really looking for death!
At this time, Lil Pea poked her head out of Hao Ren's arms and saw Nangong Wuyue in her mermaid form. The little mermaid was stunned for a moment.
Her pocket-sized brain was spinning with a lot of thoughts. Finally, she was completely confused and started to talk loudly.
Hao Ren was startled by the little mermaid's sudden noise. "What is the child saying?"
Nangong Wuyue was communicating with the lake water and was about to let everyone go down. She touched Lil Pea's head when she heard what Hao Ren said. But the moment the mental connection was made, she jumped up and said, "What's wrong with this child's brain?"
Seeing this, Hao Ren was even more curious. "What is she talking about?"
Nangong Wuyue's tail was slapping hard on the beach. Her whole face was red. She put her hands on her waist and shouted at Lil Pea, "I'm not your grandma! And I'm not your dad's mistress! I can't give birth to a pot! You won't have a lid on your head when you grow up! When your dad sleeps at night, there is no fire under him because he is not a pot! The reason why your mom can't talk is because she is made of iron! I don't usually have a tail not because I don't have enough chopsticks to eat! Your dad doesn't have a tail not because he has a conflict with your mom! The water pipe is not the way to grandma's house! I have three circles of purple and gold pattern on my tail, what does it have to do with you? I'm a siren and you're a mermaid! I can also turn into a mantis shrimp, can you? "
Suddenly, there was silence. Hao Ren would never have thought that Lil Pea's little brain could have so many messy but subtly interrelated questions. Even Y'zaks, who was usually quiet, couldn't help but say, "What's wrong with this child's brain?"
Lil Pea was immediately shocked by Nangong Wuyue's rapid lecture. But soon, she became even more confused. This time, Nangong Wuyue did not care about the translation. Hao Ren, who was confused, could only hold his daughter in his arms and comfort her. After a long while, the farce finally calmed down.
What was supposed to be a rather serious mission was completely ruined by the little fellow's antics.
