Wizard: This witcher is neglecting his duties.

Chapter 289 The Blessings of the Goddesses

I won't go into the details of the blessing process, but the four goddesses, each with their own distinct style, captivated Wayne with their scents and magic.

If he hadn't been involved in Yennefer's urgent mission, he would definitely have spent more time with these goddesses. It wasn't that he had any bad intentions; he just wanted to make some friends.

To deal with this crisis, the goddesses bestowed upon us very powerful abilities.

The goddess of birds bestowed upon him the power of the wind, greater speed, and the ability to see through the fog.

The goddess of the fields granted him the protection of the wilderness, making him immune to all kinds of diseases, curses, and the effects of evil spells, and giving him greater magical power.

The forest goddess then bestowed upon him the protection of the forest, granting him extremely powerful self-healing abilities, and significantly enhancing his strength and physique.

The goddess of the lake, Lilith, imbued Excalibur with her power, making it the bane of dark magic and capable of inflicting double damage on evil monsters.

After receiving these powers, Wayne felt that although his strength had not increased significantly, his resistance to various alien energies had greatly improved, giving him the feeling that he could physically withstand magic.

However, these blessings are not permanent. These goddesses of the wizarding world are less like deities and more like magical creatures called nymphs.

The accumulation of time and the blessing of the world's will have indeed given them some magical powers, but in terms of combat strength alone, they are not considered powerful, and they may even be killed by malicious evil people.

In addition to these powers, the goddesses also thoughtfully used some magical means to open a fast passage to the unnamed mountain range near Banad City.

Guided by the forest goddess, he passed through a dark tree hole and in the blink of an eye traversed dozens of kilometers, appearing in an unfamiliar forest.

At the same time, the voice of the goddess Lilith reached his ears.

"I'm sorry, my warrior, the evil forces from this other world are far too concentrated in this forest. The other ladies and I are unable to reach this place."

"You'll have to face the battle alone from now on."

"The one manipulating the entire event should also be an evil god who possesses the power of laws from another world."

"Find it, then defeat it, and banish it from our world."

"Once we defeat the evil god of this other world, things will be much simpler."

After hearing the goddess's words, Wayne felt a little uneasy for the first time.

Looking back over the years since his debut, he has killed countless enemies, but he has never actually encountered a truly formidable foe.

Unexpectedly, what was originally intended as leaving a loophole to disgust the detestable kingdom of Cordwin ended up harming both himself and others, forcing him to personally confront a god, and one of the most terrifying gods from the dark world at that.

Although Wayne knew in his heart that the other party could not be a true god descending, but most likely a mortal as a substitute, just like in the game.

Even so, he was still an incredibly powerful god, incomparable to weaklings like the Witch-King of Angmar in Middle-earth or the dragon Smaug.

However, when the time came, he was not a truly weak person. Whether it was to save Yennefer or to prevent the disaster from worsening, he had to take a gamble.

Of course, as someone who values ​​his life, if the opponent is truly much stronger than him, he won't just throw his life away. If things look bad, he'll run away.

After mentally preparing himself, Wayne's emotions calmed down from the shock of meeting the four goddesses and then facing the evil god from another world.

He took a deep breath, then donned the invisibility cloak and began to recall the place where he had found the spatial rift.

If the enemy wants to expand this spatial rift, then their core strength must be around the rift. Finding that place is equivalent to finding their target.

Although the entire mountain range has become extremely desolate and eerie due to earthquakes and the corruption of hellish forces, and is very different from what it used to be.

However, if you look carefully, you can still find some reference points from the past from the clues to pinpoint your location.

As he continued onward, avoiding the dense swarms of monsters that had gathered from all corners of the mist, Wayne once again felt a pang of emotion for the Invisibility Cloak, this magical artifact from the Harry Potter world.

It must be said that although the magic in the Harry Potter world is not particularly powerful, their use of magic far surpasses that of many fantasy worlds.

Floo Network, spatial tents, Transfiguration, Felix Felicis, and so on—even as ordinary wizards, they possess many powers that would be considered quite advanced in other worlds.

If he has the chance in the future, he definitely wants to visit the Harry Potter world and study the magic there.

With the ability to see through the fog bestowed upon him by the Wind Goddess, Wayne's movements were no longer so restricted. With his excellent eyesight, he could easily observe the distribution of various monsters and the safe routes to take.

About an hour later, he finally found the vicinity of the canyon where the crack had been.

However, due to the earthquake a few months ago, this place has transformed from a lush canyon into a chaotic area riddled with cracks and filled with corrosive forces.

Moreover, as the place with the most abundant hellish power, there are a great many monsters here, and their quality is quite high. Looking around, there are probably thousands of monsters.

Even if Wayne's power could wreak havoc among these monsters, it would inevitably alert them and attract the enemy's attention and ambush.

With no other option, Wayne had to don the invisibility cloak and use stealth to slowly search for his target in the area.

In any case, the more monsters gather in a place, the more important it must be.

About half an hour later, which was about four hours after Yennefer was captured, Wayne finally found the spatial rift he had opened.

Due to the change in terrain, the area around this fissure has almost formed a huge pit, surrounded by towering, sharp stone pillars. Its location is quite hidden, and it is very difficult to see the inside from the outside.

If it weren't for Wayne's Source Mage talent, which allowed him to sense the intense fluctuations of Chaos Magic, he would have had a hard time finding this place in such a short time.

When he quietly climbed to the top of a stone pillar and saw the situation around the crack, he couldn't help but gasp.

The spatial rift, which was once only about half a meter long, has now expanded to two meters by some unknown means. Moreover, the rift is no longer closed; instead, due to the influx of powerful forces, it has become an oval-shaped dark light gate.

At the same time, around this crack, twelve streams of chaotic magic, shimmering with various magical lights, were continuously pouring into the crack. In a way that Wayne couldn't understand, the powerful chaotic magic was slowly expanding the crack, making it even larger.

The owners of these twelve magical beams of light were twelve warlocks whose faces had been corrupted by hellish magic and covered with various bluish-black runes.

Many of these people were acquaintances of Wayne.
