Harwin is not that kind of person.
If this isn't showing off, what is it? It's as if she's afraid that others don't know what her relationship with the Goddess Ji Yang is. Why is she talking so much nonsense to me?
If Xia Yibing didn't really need her help, she would definitely ignore his ugly face.
"The parts I know..." Raven narrowed his eyes, "Everything?"
"Yes."
"Legends too?"
"Yes."
"That's a lot." Crow began to shake his head, "Where should I start... Let me think... Hmm! The earliest should be when that place didn't even exist on the map."
"Hmm?" Xia Yibing raised her eyebrows, "What do you mean?"
"It literally means that it doesn't exist. The entire Far North doesn't exist."
"How is this possible?" Xia Yibing stared, then thought of something, "Is it related to the slash swung by the Goddess Jiyang?"
Now she knew that some of the legends that seemed bizarre in the past were true. For example, the goddess once swung her sword to split the sea and the earth, and abruptly changed the structure of all the land plates in the world.
Since this incident really happened, it is also possible that the northern plate of Icarolina was also torn apart. The so-called Far North may have been a land base that sank under the sea, and was squeezed up due to the crustal movement caused by the catastrophe, forming a new part of land.
"That's not the case." But the crow denied her guess.
"I've already said it - the earliest! The time I was born wasn't the earliest... The north was already very cold at that time, and the further north we went, the thicker the ice became, until all the passages were cut off, as if we had reached the end of the world."
"But in fact, I once looked up some information in the school library when Harwin and I were in school together. There was a passage that said something like this... 'Under the Arctic glacier are portals to the four God-descending continents. As long as you find a way to melt the glacier, anyone can easily reach any corner of Namibia through the portals'... That means it bulged a long time ago."
"That's nonsense..." Xia Yibing was skeptical, "When you were in school...there weren't any goddesses at that time, right?"
"No."
"Is that the so-called 'God Lord'? A lower-level extraordinary life form? Is this the portal set up by these things?"
"That's impossible." Crow shook his head. "I'll forget about that. If it's one-way, there are many ways to achieve the transmission. But it says that it 'connects every corner of Namibia'. This is not something that the Lord God can do."
"Do you want to surpass the power of the Lord God?" Xia Yibing frowned.
Then she could only think of the mother tree.
Namiya's power hierarchy is roughly arranged like this:
At the top are the Sun King and the Mechanical Sun Goddess, who are above the Mother Tree and have set themselves as the incarnation of the Mother Tree.
Further down is the “genuine mother tree” that grew from the root of the world.
Further down are the original life forms created by the "genuine mother tree". These life forms were mentioned by Hitzfeld. There are four in total, and she called them "the first generation of gods".
Below these four gods are the messy second-generation gods and third-generation gods. Their levels are so clear that there is almost no room for transcendence, so Xia Yibing feels that the power that can surpass the gods is undoubtedly related to the mother tree.
"So the portal was created by the mother tree?"
She was a little confused.
"That used to be Ikarolin, Aisha, Cambia, and Laceres... Was it the node where the space of these four continents intersected?"
"Then as time went by... I don't know why that place was frozen, and the ice plus the movement of the earth's crust caused the land to rise up from under the sea... The land was then frozen again, forming mountains and glaciers... Is this the origin of the Great Snow Mountain in the Far North?"
Could it be that the thing sealed under the ice lake is related to the mother tree?
This seems to be the only explanation.
Aisun had touched the crown, and she must have received some information from the source through the crown. Through this information, she learned about the ancient mysteries buried under the ice, and then she thought it would be to her advantage to uncover these mysteries.
"Is that so?" Xia Yibing stared at the crow.
"Don't look at me!" the crow warned her and moved two steps to the side.
"I'm just telling you what I know... To tell you the truth, I don't believe the records I've seen at all, such as the portal and other nonsense. I'd rather believe that the body of the Ice and Snow Goddess is buried there! Or the body of the God of Disaster, Moins!"
“Has a god ever died there?”
"They are just some obsolete antiques!"
Xia Yibing wanted to ask more questions, but she was stunned for a moment and felt that she vaguely heard someone calling her.
It's Hitzfeld.
When guests came, she was called down to entertain them.
Or maybe you can’t call them guests...they can be described as family members.
Ashley, and Lily.
Hitzfeld was genuinely surprised when she opened the door. She immediately realized that this was Sarah's work - her abnormality some time ago must have scared a lot of people, so much so that they had to consider any factors that might make her better, and then try every means to get to her.
From this perspective, she is no different from a real princess.
"I heard them say you were sick!"
Ashley gave Hitzfeld a bear hug as soon as they met.
"Are you okay Heath?"
"I missed you so much... I'm so glad you're safe!"
Ashley is like this, her expression is more... bold. This is due to her experience.
"I am fine……"
Hitzfeld's face turned blue from being strangled by her, but he still insisted on stroking her back, "It's just a minor illness... similar to a cold... Can you let go? Someone will be angry if they see..."
"Said it right."
Xia Yibing happened to be coming down the corridor and narrowed her eyes when she saw this scene.
"I'm already starting to get angry."
Then, without waiting for her to say anything, Ashley let go of Hitzfeld and rushed towards her, giving her a tight bear hug while she was in a daze.
"And Sasha!"
"I miss you so much too!"
What kind of torture is this...
Truly feeling that terrifying power, Xia Yibing's face turned pale. She quickly broke free from the strong embrace and looked at the girl in surprise and doubt.
Ashley...is her body shape pretty normal now?
Apart from his larger frame, he no longer looks that strong. He is just a taller northerner. How could he have such strength?
"It's very strong, isn't it!" Ashley was still very excited. "This is the result of my training camp! They said that I can start wearing armor soon! I'm about to graduate! I'm going to become the youngest and most powerful Golden Knight!"
I think the power armor Frick and the others are wearing is probably not worthy of you...
Xia Yibing's face fell and she didn't know what to say for a moment.
As for Hitzfeld, she was busy comforting Lily.
If Ashley's excitement index for seeing her was 10, then Lily's number was over 100.
This stupid dog... when Ashley picked her up, it was nudging her shoes. When Ashley ran away, it pounced on her again, knocked her to the ground, and kept sniffing and licking her face.
"Lily! You've gained a lot of weight..."
Hitzfeld tried to push, and was horrified to find that he could not push Lily away with his physical strength.
This weight has increased by about one third compared to my previous impression? The whole figure has become bigger!
This is not a dog at all! Even ordinary wolf kings are not this big!
"Wang Wang!"
Finally seeing her owner again after a long time, Lily's excitement obviously did not subside so quickly. After she broke free, she still circled around her, running around and wagging her tail... the frequency was almost as fast as the propeller.
A Sheldon dog this big could pull a sled by itself...
With a sudden thought, Hitzfeld considered whether to take Lily with him.
Ashley definitely won't bring it.
It has nothing to do with danger. You will most likely not encounter any evildoers on this trip. It is just a journey to pursue the truth and to recognize your own heart.
So she wouldn't take anyone with her, not Ashley, not Darent either.
But Lily is not human.
Bringing it with you won't disturb your world of two.
The commotion was almost over, and Daryl was alarmed and came out to check what was going on. Hitzfeld called everyone into the house and sent Daryl downstairs to buy fresh ingredients.
She was considering leaving tomorrow. In this case, there wouldn't be much food left at home. This amount was not enough for Ashley to eat, so she would have to buy a lot.
After buying the things, Hitzfeld cooked a big meal himself and formally introduced Ashley and Daryl to each other at the table - of course, he did not miss the extremely important Ms. Yusirion.
"Do you really respect me?"
Blood Crystal Crow has a different opinion on this.
"You keep saying that I'm important, but you paired her with Daryl, and paired me with a Sherries dog..."
She really wanted to make a long speech about this, but Ashley was making too much noise while eating, so she thought about it and said nothing more.
Of course, the most important thing was that she saw Hitzfeld—saw the loneliness in her eyes.
Ah... I think she said during her free time in class that she had cooked big meals here many times before, and the old man next door would come to eat.
But now that guy is dead.
Although it still looks lively, the missing people will never come back.
Crow could see this, and Xia Yibing could see it too.
And because she had known Alfred earlier, her feelings were much deeper, and she was the only one at the table who could truly understand the girl.
"Eat well and rest well, okay?"
While Ashley was in the bathroom, she moved closer to the girl and hugged her, resting her head against hers.
"I swear I won't ask any more questions... I won't force you to do anything. The head of Imaar will only serve her angels from now on. I will accompany you no matter what you want to do."
So corny...
The crow covered his face and didn't even bother to look.
I don't remember teaching you to say sweet words like this...
However, what surprised her was that this "lame love talk" actually had an incredibly magical and remarkable effect on Hitzfeld. She finally suppressed most of her loneliness and actually smiled.
During the post-meal chat, Hitzfeld guessed through interrogating Ashley that the person who prompted her to come should be Annual Rings.
It was either Nian Lun or Pu Si An Si. For her own good, she would not mind this transgression...
"I know Heath won't take me with him this time."
Ashley's words startled her.
It's really strange. Every time I went out to do something, as long as I didn't bring Ashley with me, she would always scream.
Why are you so sensible this time?
"…Because they told me that this time you and Aunt Sasha go there, there's a chance that you might… um… give me a brother or sister?"
make--
After these words were spoken, the two people on the opposite side were stunned.
He was stunned at first, then his face twitched.
His face began to turn red little by little.
"Ashley is very sensible!"
The strong girl immediately emphasized: "Ashley knows that this kind of thing is very private and must not be disturbed by outsiders. Of course Ashley can't go. Ashley is just here to help Heath look after the house... I can help look after the house while you are out."
"Then wouldn't it be the same if you guarded the manor or Flo Street?" Xia Yibing didn't understand.
"There are walnuts there."
"Don't you feel lonely without anyone to accompany you, Kurumi?"
"I did ask her that, and she told me she wasn't alone."
"You are really stupid..."
