Chapter 43: New Moon Blessing
Chapter 43: New Moon Blessing
In Elena's prayer, the illusory gate in the sky slowly opened inward.
Through the gate, William could vaguely see a vast and lush forest full of vitality behind it.
Just as the gate was fully opened, a faint white mist-like phantom appeared on the body of the moon spirit leopard's corpse.
This should be the summoned soul of the moon spirit leopard.
The soul of the moon spirit leopard floated in the air, its illusory face lingeringly glancing at the little moon spirit leopard on Elena's shoulder before soaring into the sky and entering the gate to the divine realm.
Buzz~
Suddenly, a loud sound echoed, and two doors shimmering with mysterious light slowly closed and sealed.
William and the others breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the soul return ceremony was over.
Just as the gate summoned by the soul return ceremony was about to close completely, several silver lights suddenly appeared from behind the gate, descending directly from within.
The largest silver light directly enveloped Elena and the little moon spirit leopard on her shoulder.
Before William and the others could react, the remaining silver lights also descended one by one, directly entering their bodies.
William only felt a flash of silver light before losing all sensation. After carefully checking his body, he found a silver crescent mark on the back of his left hand.
Before William could figure out what the newly appeared mark on the back of his hand meant, the system prompt appeared in front of him.
[You have received the blessing of the moon and guardian goddess Clemena]
[You gain the expertise [Silver Moon Protection]]
[[Silver Moon Protection] - Derived from the divine power of the moon and guardian goddess Clemena. Under moonlight, stamina and mana regeneration speed +50%, all attributes temporarily increase by 30%]
([Silver Moon Protection] expertise hidden effect, the probability of mastering Hidden Profession Skills such as moonlight, guardianship, night, and hunting increases by 30%)
[You have come into contact with the divine power]
[Your progress in analyzing divine power: 1%]
Wow! That's powerful! William touched the crescent mark on his left hand, realizing that the silver light just now was the power of the goddess Clemena?
The so-called blessing of the gods refers to a kind of blessing bestowed by the gods on their devout followers or beloved creatures, endowing them with power derived from the gods, often manifested as a sustained enhancement effect.
The [Silver Moon Protection] that William just obtained is quite special, as it only works under moonlight. However, in comparison, the effect is also more powerful.
Increasing stamina, mana regeneration speed, and a 30% increase in all attributes are quite terrifying effects, equivalent to an increase in level by nearly ten levels for William.
As for the progress in analyzing divine power, William didn't receive this prompt when he obtained the power of the gods in his past life, so he could only put it aside and explore it later.
William glanced at his left hand and decided not to wash it for a month. Perhaps he could change his pitiful luck by absorbing the divine aura.
Nichole, Jason, and the others also woke up one by one, each with a happy expression on their faces, apparently benefiting greatly from the power of the goddess just now.
"Nichole, how do you feel?" William asked, looking at Nichole, who was eager to try.
"It's amazing! I feel like my strength has increased a lot! Do you want to try it?" Nichole waved her small fist, showing off her little arm to William.
William looked at Nichole's fair and delicate arms and shook his head hastily, knowing full well the terrifying power hidden within.
Seriously, Nichole alone could level the small mountain where they were, but it would take some time.
Just as William and the others were joking around, the silver light on Elena and the little moon spirit leopard gradually faded away, and they woke up from their special state.
"Elena, how do you feel?" Nichole immediately went to Elena's side, asking with concern while keeping an eye on the little moon spirit leopard on her shoulder.
It seems like the little cat has become more spirited! Nichole thought to herself.
"I'm fine," Elena said, unaware of Nichole's small movements. She nodded to the surrounding teammates to indicate that she was okay.
"Was that the power of the goddess just now?" Jason asked, although he had some guesses in his mind, the always cautious him still asked Elena.
"Yes, it was. It's the reward from the goddess Clemena to us," Elena said with a look of reverence and longing on her face. "The goddess is very pleased with us for returning the soul of the moon spirit leopard home."
Then, she gently held the little moon spirit leopard in her arms. The little guy seemed to have received the baptism and protection of the goddess as well, and now regarded Elena as the closest person, quietly falling asleep.
While stroking the little moon spirit leopard, Elena said, "This little guy has also received the blessing and protection of the goddess. It will definitely be stronger than its mother in the future."
Wow! How much does the moon goddess love moon spirit leopards? It must have cost a lot to perform such powerful divine power operations!
William silently complained in his heart, but as the strongest intermediate divine power deity in the elven divine system, the moon and guardian goddess Clemena probably wouldn't mind this expenditure.
Moreover, since William received tangible benefits himself, he should also praise the generosity of the Moon Goddess.
Muttering a few words silently, William heard Jason arranging beside him, "Since everything is done, let's tidy up and prepare to go back."
No one objected to Jason's words, and Elena used elven magic to summon vines to cover the body of the moon spirit leopard.
When unable to return to their homeland, elves usually return the bodies of their animal companions to nature in this way.
The group returned to Baron Tony's castle, informing him that the beasts in his territory had been successfully dealt with by them and presenting him with the special certificate left behind.
Baron Tony was naturally overjoyed, repeatedly thanking Jason and the others, and even invited them to rest in the castle for the night before departing the next day.
However, the members of the adventure party decided to return to Canlight City now. They still had a little moon spirit leopard to take care of, so it was better to return to the team's base as soon as possible.
Watching the carriage of the adventure party gradually disappear at the end of the road, Baron Tony, who had specifically sent them to the crossroads of the town, couldn't help but sigh.
Truly, they are a team with a Golden Warrior. Their efficiency, even if a bit more expensive, is worth it! I should have just hired this mercenary group led by Nichole. It's a waste of money to be delayed by those useless mercenaries. It's all about money!
"Master, shall we go back now?" Butler Zeman asked beside him. With the beasts causing trouble in the area dealt with, they, ordinary people, also breathed a sigh of relief, and Zeman's complexion improved a lot.
"Go back?" Baron Tony's tone was very stern. "Why would we go back so soon? You should hurry up and inform those lazy fellows to get to work in the vineyard."
"These days of idleness are all wasting my money, do you understand?!"
"And those people, go and tell them to leave immediately. Although the matter has been resolved, it has caused so much trouble. If it weren't for that person, I would have thrown them to the Golden Lion Knights and the Dawn Church long ago!"
"Let them leave quickly! I'm annoyed just seeing them!"
Baron Tony grumbled and even kicked Zeman's butt with his foot.
Zeman immediately nodded and left to inform the strange caravan that had been staying with the master for half a year.
"I hope there won't be any more accidents," Baron Tony stood in place, looking worriedly at his vineyard. Why is it so difficult to be an ordinary baron?
