Chapter 27 Fountain of Courage

A man and a horse stood at the end of the road.

There were clouds and mist in front of them, and a deep abyss behind them.

Huge stone pillars stood opposite each other on both sides of the road.

They pointed straight into the sky, like pillars holding up the sky.

The sound of "woohoo" before should be the wind blowing through these stone pillars.

The stone pillars were carved with intricate patterns.

Every line was drawn to perfection.

Ethan felt the trembling of his soul deeply.

This must not be done by mortals.

It was a supreme pressure that made him unconsciously feel suffocated and surrendered.

He didn't expect that what he and Xiaobai had been looking for was actually a relic.

Unlike the last time when the flower sea was safe and sound, the most intuitive feeling he had this time was shock.

A shock that hit his heart directly.

"Sigh~"

Xiaobai was also infected by the breath of the gods.

It took a long time before he broke free from that state.

A man and a horse looked at each other, and they saw the incredible in each other's eyes.

At this moment, Ethan suddenly felt his backpack move.

"Hiss~"

It turned out that Bryant was also awakened by this momentum.

This was the first time he had woken up in the past three days.

One person, one snake, and one horse, with uneasy throbbing, slowly moved forward.

On the first stone pillar, there was a huge golden lion carved.

The lion opened its bloody mouth and roared to the sky.

From a distance, it was daunting.

On the second stone pillar, there was a nine-headed snake carved.

Each of the nine snake heads was hideous and terrifying.

On the third stone pillar, there was a red doe carved.

The fourth... wild boar.

The fifth... cattle pen.

The sixth... strange bird.

The seventh... bull.

The eighth... horse herd.

The ninth... a brave and warlike queen.

The tenth... a mad bull.

The eleventh... an apple tree.

The twelfth... a three-headed dog with bared fangs and claws. Each stone pillar is lifelike.

Although it is a sculpture, it gives people a sense of infinite momentum.

At the end of the twelve pillars is a magnificent square.

In the center of the square is a huge sculpture.

The man on the sculpture is wearing golden armor and holding a luxurious sword.

The blade stabbed forward fiercely, and his eyes were full of domineering.

Just looking from a distance, the unstoppable momentum came to the face.

Under his feet, there are all kinds of monsters.

There are lions, giant snakes with nine heads, wild deer, wild boars, etc.

There is a golden apple hanging around his waist, and behind him stands an indignant queen.

If you look closely, you will find that these are consistent with the sculptures on the twelve stone pillars.

Ethan stood under the statue, and his heart could not calm down for a long time.

At this moment, a heroic fairy suddenly appeared above the sculpture.

The whole space was filled with exciting music.

The fairy's mouth opened and closed, and a melodious song came:

"Warrior from afar~"

"Please listen to me sing a hymn about courage."

"He is extremely brave~"

"He is extremely powerful~"

"He has completed twelve feats~"

"He has become a blessing."

...

"Traveler who listens to my song of courage~"

"Accept the guidance of the song."

"My blessing will go with you."

As soon as the fairy finished speaking, a clear spring flowed from her fingertips.

With the ding-dong of the spring water, the fairy's illusion disappeared.

And in the blank space on the sculpture, a line of words suddenly appeared:

Those who bravely jump through the void are qualified to receive the blessing of courage.

The Fountain of Courage: After drinking it, you will receive the blessing of Calliope of the Temple of Muses.

Ethan's surprise was beyond words.

Blessing...

Could this be a rare blessed relic!

He still remembered that when Connell explained it, he had specifically mentioned this kind of relic.

Very rare, very secret, very hard to come by.

There was infinite yearning between the words.

The most important thing is that each blessed relic can only be opened once, and it will be destroyed forever after closing.

Temple of Muse? ! Probably a palace of a god.

I can't help myself.

God, you treat me well.

Thinking of this, Ethan no longer hesitated.

He immediately leaned over and drank the water happily.

"Burp~"

"Nongfu Spring is a bit sweet~"

The product of the gods must be a fine product!

Ethan wiped his mouth, feeling a little unsatisfied, but there was no room in his stomach.

Bryant and Xiaobai also drank wildly at the same time.

The originally small amount of spring water soon ran out.

Suddenly remembered his senbei.

Ethan quickly threw senbei Ma Yun into the spring water.

Isn't this the spring of courage? Let her grow some courage.

The fairy suddenly felt something strange, and the clear spring water poured in.

A breath of the gods.

She was ecstatic, opened the shell directly, and danced.

Not even the last drop of spring water was left.

Ma Yun pursed her lips, looking unsatisfied.

But her belly was round like a ball.

"Burp~"

She covered her mouth shyly.

"Bang!"

She closed the shell.

I don't know if the courage spring water has any effect on her.

Connie once said that every relic has a "conquest" and a "conclusion".

It seems that the symbol of this relic is the limerick written by Xiaobai.

And the ending is to enter this relic.

As for the spring water, that is the reward for the mission.

The origin of the relic is recorded on the back of the huge sculpture.

The god on the sculpture is Hercules.

The twelve stone pillars symbolize the twelve exploits of Hercules.

And the fairy that appeared is actually a Muse.

The Muse refers to the gods who are in charge of singing, literature, and praise.

She spread the deeds of Hercules by writing hymns.

And encouraged everyone who heard to learn from Him.

At the same time, the spring water was given to bless those who were equally brave.

After a while, Ethan suddenly felt a little numb all over his body.

The fatigue of many days disappeared.

He clenched his fists and found that his strength had increased a lot, twice as much as before.

The body also seemed to become stronger.

It was like a rebirth.

He vaguely heard the sound of the system.

[Ding! Receive the "Courage Blessing" from the Muse, Calliope, and gain the passive ability: The Sign of the Brave: Permanent +100% for physical strength, permanent +100% for strength. 】

(This book has no system yet, and the attribute table is purely for easy understanding.)

Not long after, Bryant and Xiaobai also had physiological reactions...

This is equivalent to having an extra talent out of thin air.

Physical strength doubled directly.

Bryant coiled up his body, enjoying the pleasure brought to him by the increase in strength.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Ethan felt that his body had suddenly grown a little bigger.

The color of his body also deepened a little.

"Xilulu~"

Xiaobai excitedly hoofed the iron in the air and neighed to the sky.

The mane on his neck was more elegant in the breeze.

Ethan could feel the joy in his heart from its cry.

But at this moment.

It was as if responding to Xiaobai's cry.

A horse's neigh suddenly sounded above the ruins.

"Xilulu~~"

The sound shook the world, and it was magnificent.

Xiaobai is confused...

Ethan is confused...

PS: I am testing the waters and pushing it. Please give me some votes and collections.

Thanks to all the big guys~
