Diary of the Improper Monster Girl Transformation.

Chapter 235 It won't be that simple! (6k Happy Winter Solstice)
Click, click, click…

The sound of the galloping horse was getting closer and closer, echoing violently in the quiet mountains, causing the expressions of the priests to change slightly.

"This……"

Daring to run wildly in this forbidden area of ​​gods, what an arrogant way to make an appearance.

"coming!"

Amid this oppression, Joanna felt a little uneasy and gave instructions to everyone in a deep voice.

"Everyone, be careful!"

The other party came with bad intentions and obviously wanted to give them a warning.

Ah.

But the other party was wrong. As servants of the goddess, they would naturally not be scared by others.

"Keep calm! Don't embarrass the goddess!"

They represent the church and even more so the goddess, and they must not be intimidated by the other party's momentum.

Not to mention, there is a more noble being mixed in the team at this moment, and we must not let Him down.

The Ice and Snow Goddess is nominally subordinate to the Winter Goddess, but in fact, she can be said to be in a state of being nurtured (kept).

Since you are being kept by someone, you certainly cannot move freely and naturally there is no question of having an independent personality.

In fact, if the clergy under the Ice and Snow Goddess perform well, there is a chance that they will be transferred by the "superior company" and become a member of the Winter Goddess Church...

For example, most of the Goddess of Winter’s previous incarnations as God’s favored ones were “noticed” by Him and snatched away.

Well, I rob myself.

Although the Ice and Snow Goddess protested against this verbally, she ultimately did not dare to confront the Winter Goddess and acquiesced to her banditry.

And this actually means - now is the opportunity!

The real big boss is here in person watching our performance!

However, among the people present, only Joanna noticed the clues, but she could only guess and did not dare to confirm the other party's identity.

Just in case, after some hesitation, Joanna whispered to the "weak" God's favored one: "Lady Yuniel, the other party's attitude is unclear, please hide behind me."

Yuniel shook her head, looked at the rolling fog that seemed to be attacked by a giant beast, and chuckled, "No, it's not necessary. The other party should have no ill intentions."

Joanna hesitated for a moment, but decided to follow the other party's arrangements.

"I understand."

Don't lick too much.

Under the silent gaze of the Ice and Snow Goddess priests, the sound of horse hooves stopped, and the warhorse seemed to leap high before their eyes.

call--

The next moment, a tall and heroic Centaur suddenly leaped out of the mist with a whistling wind.

The agile figure leaped and moved in the air, stepped empty on the ground, suddenly stopped, and then fell straight to the ground in front of everyone.

boom!
The violent fall only created an air wave and did not cause any impact on the ground.

The female Centaur warrior carried a huge bow on her back and held a long spear in her hand. She looked at the group of priests in front of her with proud eyes.

After glancing around, she curled her lips slightly and snorted with almost contempt.

Humph.

!!!

Her action implied contempt, causing the priests, who were originally shocked by her appearance, to frown slightly and look back at her unfriendlyly.

"..."

As the team leader, Joanna's attitude was not as sensitive as others.

She looked at the imposing centaur, her eyes narrowed slightly, noticing the unusual details.

legend.

Judging from the aura he exudes, this is a powerful person at the legendary level. Moreover, he is not a newly promoted legend, but a powerful legend with quite good strength.

And that's not even the most important thing.

What shocked Joanna the most was the other party's identity.

Heroic spirit.

This is actually a legendary hero! ! ?
After finding out the other party's identity, Joanna said to herself, "As expected."

As expected, this special mission is not just a spur of the moment decision by the goddess, but will involve another deity!
Although his goddess is not very smart and often gets lost and has to be sent back...but He is not stupid.

Not stupid at all.

He is very good at seeking benefits and avoiding harm, and generally does not go to such a dangerous place.

If He had to go, there must be something good that attracted Him.

It could be either a rare treasure, or a rare and powerful person, or... well, it could be pure madness.

Well, that's not the case. According to the scriptures, it should be said that the goddess foresaw a certain future and eliminated that possibility after personally intervening.

But even if one is going crazy, one generally wouldn't take such a big risk.

Joanna had discussed this with Leila before and guessed that this mission would most likely involve another god.

Our goddess and another god have made a discovery and want to reach into the Misty Mountains!

This is very risky, even suicidal.

But if it really succeeds, you may be able to gain huge benefits.

Perhaps, it will really allow the Ice and Snow Goddess to fulfill her long-cherished wish and successfully escape from the arms of her "mother".

As a priest, Joanna has no right to interfere with the goddess's decision.

Even though it was extremely dangerous, as a servant of the goddess, she would not choose to escape.

All she could do was to serve Him wholeheartedly and complete the tasks He assigned her.

I will devote my whole life to the cause until my death, that's all.

But what was unfolding before her made her a little confused, and she couldn't guess the cooperative relationship between the goddess and the other party.

In any cooperative relationship, there is no 100% equality, there will always be a hierarchy.

This may not be reflected on the surface, but it will definitely be reflected in the details.

You can tell a thing or two from this first meeting.

Is it pressure? Or respect?

But looking at the legendary hero with a cold expression opposite her, Joanna was a little confused.

She really couldn't judge whether the other party's attitude was disdainful or respectful.

That god actually sent a legendary hero to greet them. This...

As a member of the Divine Church system, she understood the status of the person in front of her better than people outside.

The legendary hero who is about to become a holy spirit must have a status much higher than that of a bishop in the mortal world.

Even if it was Leila, this centaur hero would be more than willing to receive her.

After all, even a legendary bishop would have to be promoted to a higher level after his death before he could be on equal footing with the other party.

Among their group, only Yuniel, who was favored by God, was qualified to be received with such ceremony - but the travel of those favored by God was a secret.

Even within the team, she was the only one who knew this, as others only thought that Yuniel was a new priest.

"..."

The other party's attitude was a bit arrogant, but the identity of the person who showed up made up for it well.

In the few seconds that Joanna hesitated, Sophia had already stood still under the gaze of the priests and raised her chin slightly.

The proud centaur girl stared at the ten people in front of her and asked coldly: "Are you the messengers my Lord mentioned?"

In fact, Joanna misunderstood one thing.

Sophia wasn't being arrogant at the moment - she was just nervous.

"This is the first mission my Lord has given me! I must not let him down! I must not make any mistakes!"

"Hoo! Hoo! Can't make any mistakes!"

She tried hard to keep a straight face, not to let her nervousness show, and tried to appear calm.

But because of her heroic appearance, this reaction only looked cold.

Sophia was not unaware that something was wrong, and in order not to look too stiff, she tried hard to force a kind smile.

However, because he is extremely bad at smiling, this awkward smile looks quite "nuclear-minded".

Joanna raised her eyebrows at the smile, becoming even more certain that the other party looked down on people like her, and she also frowned.

"If the person you are waiting for is a priest of the Ice and Snow Goddess Church, then that's us."

"Are you alone? Are you the guide who is responsible for leading us?"

If the other party behaves coldly, then her response must not be too polite and must make clear the attitude of her own church.

But Sophia didn't care much about Joanna's attitude. She was relieved after making sure that she didn't pick up the wrong person.

Ok!

You got the right person!

"Well, I'm here to greet you."

Sophia nodded at them with a stern face and began to repeat the words Herbert taught her.

"Pastors from the Church of the Lady of Snow, are you ready?"

Her eyes slowly moved across the faces of each priest, observing their reactions.

"Go further and you will officially enter the Misty Mountains and be shrouded in thick fog."

"For a very long time in the future, you will not be able to leave here, and you will not be able to contact the outside world in any way. You will be completely separated from the world."

"Other people will not know your life or death, and you cannot know the life or death of others..."

"Are you guys really ready?"

"Now is your last chance to withdraw. After this, there will be no chance to regret."

This is the ultimatum.

Should I quit? Or should I stay?

Sophia's words slightly changed the expressions of the priests, and they felt a little shaken.

Are they really ready?

"Sir, we are ready."

Joanna stood up and spoke first: "You don't need to doubt our loyalty to the goddess."

"We all volunteered to join this mission. It's impossible for anyone to regret it at this time."

As the team leader, Joanna came out directly to set the tone and gave their answers.

Regret?

At this moment?

If someone really regretted it at this time, it would definitely not be her who would be embarrassed, but the Ice and Snow Goddess.

That is a blatant slap in the face!

The goddess selected these people, and now they are all here, and finally they ran away?
What a joke!
Sophia stared at the serious-looking half-elf and nodded slowly: "Half-elf, what's your name?"

"Joanna."

Joanna raised her head proudly, looked into the eyes of the Centaur Heroic Spirit, and said seriously: "Shepherd of the Ice and Snow Goddess."

Sophia nodded and said slowly: "My name is Sophia, the most pious servant of my Lord."

"Now that you are ready, follow me."

Sophia said this with a "cold" expression, turned around, and was about to leap into the air again, but then she remembered the abilities of these people and took steps on the ground obediently.

"Huh?" Not hearing any footsteps following, Sophia turned around to glance at the people behind her, frowning slightly.

"Come on, what are you waiting for?"

You guys, you don't want me to carry you around, do you?

that's not allowed!

Only my Lord can ride on my back!
"Humph!"

As she thought about this, she snorted softly - this reaction made Johanna frown again.

What an arrogant guy.

"..."

Knowing the difference in strength between herself and the other party, Joanna suppressed her anger, turned to Yuniel and asked quietly: "Ms. Yuniel, what do you think?"

Although she is the leader in name only, the one who really makes the decisions is this "God's Favored One" hidden in the team.

"Just follow her. Since we're already here, there's no reason to leave." Yuniel chuckled twice and followed Sophia first.

Seeing that she had made this decision, Joanna stopped hesitating and nodded to everyone, encouraging them softly:

"Sisters, for the glory of the goddess."

"Let's go out and meet this challenge!"

It is extremely dangerous to venture into the Misty Mountains rashly, and they have already prepared to encounter various dangers.

……

However, the rest of the journey was unexpectedly quiet.

They carefully followed the Centaur hero, slowly moving through the mist filled with a strange aura, and surprisingly, they did not encounter any danger.

It can’t be said that I have never encountered it.

As the images around them became more eerie and terrifying, they saw a large number of monster corpses and messy footprints.

The corpses of various monsters were scattered all over the place. Except for some wolf corpses that still had some flesh left, most of them had been eaten clean, leaving only pale skeletons.

The distribution of these corpses was irregular, as if they had been the result of a series of brutal battles or some kind of crazy plunder.

From time to time, the eerie howling of wolves could be heard in the distance, as if countless ferocious wolves were lurking in the shadows, but no matter how hard you looked, you could not see their figures.

Are there packs of monster wolves migrating?

This thought made the pastors feel nervous.

If this is really a large-scale migration of monsters, then the situation in the Misty Mountains may be more dangerous than they thought!
"Don't think too much."

As the backbone of the team, Joanna has been trying her best to comfort others.

And there was only one person in the entire team who never worried.

The God-favored Yuniel followed Sophia, hopping around, trying to talk to her and sit on her horse - but was rejected every time.

"Eh? Just let me sit for a while~"

"No."

"Sit down for a while, just sit down for a while!"

"No."

After asking repeatedly several times, Yuniel finally faced the reality and gave up the idea reluctantly.

"Okay, cheapskate."

"..."

She pouted and looked at the legendary hero in front of her with dissatisfaction, while many thoughts flashed through her mind.

"This heroic spirit doesn't have a familiar aura to me... Who is her master?"

"On the contrary, the aura of the mist is very strong on her body. It can be said that 99% of her soul has been tainted by it."

"To reach this level, I wonder how long it would take to immerse oneself in the Misty Mountains... Has the other party been planning this for many years?"

Joanna only felt that the other party's act of sending out heroes showed that they valued them and she could feel respected.

And in Yuniel...in the eyes of the Winter Goddess, more details can be felt.

Different identities and statuses lead to different perspectives.

In His view, the other party (the god behind the scenes) was not only showing sincerity, but was also demonstrating.

The person behind the other party is definitely not simple.

Moreover, he hid himself very well, without leaving any trace, so there was no way to infer the other party's identity.

He was very suspicious that his little kitten was being played around by the other party.

If it was just a suspicion before, the Goddess of Winter is now 99% sure.

Howl again!

With my child’s IQ being so low that he still has to help others count money after being cheated, he must have been cheated!
That's why the Goddess of Winter transformed herself into a god-favored one and infiltrated this mission.

I am the one who rescues my little kitty!

But even if he had doubts in his heart now, he couldn't confirm it completely - he couldn't find the other party's motives.

"But what's the point of lying to Hekaias? Using him as a sacrifice? But he didn't come here in person..."

This is the point that puzzles the Goddess of Winter the most. What exactly does the other party want?

He has no money and no power. The only thing that is valuable is the Church of God.

So, is it to rob Him of His priesthood?

The main priesthood of the Ice and Snow Goddess is [Ice and Snow], which was separated from the domain of the Winter Goddess.

Not many people would look up to a priesthood that appears weak and worthless because it is controlled by others.

The benefits of seizing the position of the Ice and Snow Goddess are small, but the price to pay is high.

Everyone knows that if they do so, they will be met with the most violent revenge of winter.

That's why the Winter Goddess was so at ease letting the Ice and Snow Goddess wander outside.

The Goddess of Winter did not think that a being like her who could manipulate legendary heroes would covet a low-level god.

With such questions in mind, He did not act rashly, but prepared to take another look.

He wanted to see what the other party was going to do! ?

It couldn't really be just a collaboration, right? Helping a weak human establish a territory?

He didn't believe it.

There must be a conspiracy behind this!
……

Under Sophia's leadership, some people quickly passed through the heavy fog.

When walking in the fog, the mist is like a curtain that separates the world, and every step requires courage.

But when passing through the last layer of fog, everything in front of me suddenly became clear, as if I had entered a completely different world.

"Wow……"

The sigh that escaped from someone's mouth represented the thoughts of all of them - everything before their eyes was completely different from what they had imagined before.

Before coming here, they had actually made plans for the worst, and would be able to persevere no matter how difficult the environment was.

But now, the scene before my eyes is so out of tune with everything I felt before.

In the depths of the fog, a beautiful painting unfolded before them, depicting a pure land like a paradise!
There are a lot of colorful flowers blooming...for some reason, a human-shaped open space is outlined.

The grass was lush and green, like a spread of the finest silk carpet, and each blade of grass swayed gently in the wind, welcoming their arrival.

In the center, there is a wooden stake emitting golden light, like a torch or a lighthouse, illuminating everything around it.

And when they were in a trance, beautiful music rang in their ears, and the sound of the harp was gentle, like river water flowing into their ears.

"…Am I still in the Misty Mountains?"

Yes.

Is this really the Misty Mountains!?
After taking in all their shocked expressions, Sophia raised her head proudly and finally spoke:

"Everyone, welcome to the Eldar Territory!"

Compared to other pastors who were amazed by the beautiful scene, Joanna was more shocked.

"here……"

In her eyes, this place seems ordinary, but in fact it is full of mysteries!
At first glance, this place seems ordinary and looks like a paradise that can be found everywhere.

But when she looked closely, she found that it was far more exaggerated than she had expected.

The emerald green grass under your feet did not grow naturally, but was created through powerful magic. Every blade of grass seemed to contain mysterious power.

And those wooden stakes that dispelled the fog were not simple either. One could feel a divine light emanating from them, and it seemed as if divine blood was slowly flowing through them.

goo.

Joanna couldn't help swallowing, her heart was numb with shock.

Others just sighed, but she was the only one who felt the huge amount of holy blood that made their scalp tingle.

How many people must be drained to gather this amount of holy blood?!?

The clear spring water in the center gurgles and you can also feel the fluctuations of legendary magic, which contains infinite vitality.

"Holy Spring..."

But what shocked Joanna the most was the discovery in the holy spring.

A mermaid was sitting lazily by a spring, stirring the water with her tail from time to time, while her fingers gently strumming the strings of a guitar.

The beautiful scales sparkle charmingly under the weak light, and each scale looks like a fine work of art.

Kraken.

That turned out to be a legendary siren! ?
Ring ring ring~
A series of clear silver bell sounds were heard, and the siren turned her head and nodded slowly at them, then retracted her gaze and continued to play in the water while playing.

Rather than a pure land, Joanna felt that this place was more like the legendary kingdom of God.

She has not seen the kingdom of God with her own eyes. She can only enter this mysterious kingdom after she dies...

Besides, if possible, she would actually prefer to go to the kingdom of the Goddess of Winter.

Joanna swallowed her saliva, and finally suppressed the emotion in her heart. She asked respectfully, "Sir Sophia, is this where we are going to live from now on?"

Sophia nodded: "Well, my Lord said that you can choose the place yourself, as long as you don't pull out the Holy Blood Stake."

"us……"

Just as Joanna was about to continue asking for more details, a howl suddenly came from behind.

"Ouch - ow -"

!!!

"What!?"

She turned around and looked in the direction they had just come from, her pupils shrank.

Behind them, there seemed to be endless shadows, slowly approaching here.

not good!

Those monsters are coming here! ! ?
But just as she was about to have her companions prepare to resist and flee...Sophia spoke.

she says:

"My Lord is back!"

Joanna: ???

Compared to other questions, there was only one question that flashed through the half-elf priest's mind first.

no……

The god you serve has also come incarnate?
