"Yes, sir."
Liliana spoke respectfully.
Although she had some private friendship with the girl in the black dress, sometimes she would joke with her.
But in fact, in Liliana's heart, she knew very clearly...
The relationship between myself and the leader is still just a simple subordinate one.
In other words, the entire Elf Royal Court is actually just a vassal of the other party.
This was not a self-declaration and occupation by the other party, but a heartfelt consensus of Liliana and even the residents of the entire Snow Wind City.
If the other party did not exist, there would probably be no Elf Royal Court that can still live and work in peace even though it has fallen into the abyss.
She had left the Snow City alone for several years because of the leader's orders.
...
...
"Follow the instructions of the holy relic you provided to locate the coordinates."
"I started from the Snow City at the bottom of the abyss. After spending several years, I finally crossed the entire desolate and desolate abyss, and then arrived at the gap between the abyss and reality."
The process was not that difficult.
After all, there are almost no native intelligent races in the abyss. The occasional elemental life forms that have no intelligence and only retain the instincts of beasts, or the simply rugged terrain, do not pose much of an obstacle to Liliana, a legendary gray elf.
The only obstacle is the long time and the loneliness of crossing the abyss.
However, these things are nothing to Liliana.
"This process took a total of five years and three months."
"And when I arrived at the gap between the Abyss and the main material plane, the situation there was indeed not beyond your expectations, Leader."
The gray elf girl spoke in amazement.
"The barrier between the Abyss and the main material plane, also known as the world wall you mentioned, has indeed shown signs of loosening."
"Although no living being or even a dead object is allowed to pass through the boundary."
"However, using the holy relic you prepared, I did succeed in sensing the existence of the spirit world in the main material plane at that gap."
"And, using the holy relic as a medium, I successfully connected to the spirit world, and successfully collected a limited amount of revelations and information from the subconscious ocean of the spirit world."
"That's what you're concerned about, the false gods in the Western Continent, Sister Hathaway, and the Black Tower."
At this point, Liliana's gray-black eyes showed even more surprise.
She is now a legend, so she knows very clearly how difficult it is to cross the boundary between the abyss and the western continent, or between the main material plane and the inner side of the world.
Not to mention legends, even mythical creatures cannot shake it in the slightest.
Even if there is a loosening now, it is still necessary to collect a little intelligence in the gaps, assisted by searching for holy relics from the spirit world.
It can be said that these are two completely isolated worlds.
Not only is it forbidden for gods to travel, but even the communication of information is extremely difficult.
But the girl in the black dress in front of him had accurately predicted what was about to happen on the Western Continent six years ago, before he set out.
Regardless of the riots caused by those false gods.
Or maybe it’s the movements of Hathaway’s sister, and the return of the so-called “Dark Tower”.
"Nothing surprising."
“It may seem incredible to you, but to me, it is just a simple spoiler. ”
"Come to think of it, he used this method to show his divine power in front of others when they were young."
"How cunning..."
"With such a calm manner, he captured the hearts of one woman after another."
The girl in the black dress waved her hand casually: "Although I still remember the general direction, the specific details and time nodes still need to be confirmed."
"Tell me the specific information you have collected."
"yes."
Liliana spoke respectfully. She didn't understand the meaning of the word "spoiler" and didn't want to understand.
"In today's Western Continent, the human race has become the most prosperous intelligent race, relying on its resistance to the Fallen Sun, madness and loss of control. ”
“However, as the influence and pollution of the Fallen Sun gradually receded, many mythical creatures that were previously in a semi-crazy state also gradually regained their sanity. ”
"It seems that he discovered the abnormality of the human race. Or perhaps he realized that collecting the faith of intelligent creatures could help stabilize his out-of-control divinity and authority within his throne... Maybe it's both."
"In short, the current Western Continent is in a chaotic stage where mythical creatures are competing for the beliefs of different human kingdoms."
Liliana emptied her mind, recalling the many pieces of information she had gained from the subconscious ocean of the spiritual world with the help of the holy relics bestowed by the leader.
"Almost every mythical creature that has regained its sapience wants to establish a so-called doctrine in the human kingdom and gain more believers and followers."
"Among humans, powerful people of legendary rank have also begun to appear one after another. Many of them are not satisfied with being reduced to herdsmen being taught doctrines by mythical creatures, and they want to resist."
"But compared to true mythical creatures, legends still have a gap in status."
"So in general, mythical creatures still dominate humans on the current Western Continent. Most of the human kingdoms are occupied by mythical creatures and have developed into their own religious kingdoms on earth."
Liliana spoke slowly.
Having said that, she unconsciously raised her head again and looked behind the girl in the black dress, at the figure on the frozen throne.
In the final analysis, she and the human boy named Char had only met briefly five hundred years ago.
But that day, the day the Lost Island fell into the abyss.
Even Liliana at that time only had a glimpse of what Char looked like when he really took action.
But the glory of that moment was also deeply engraved in Liliana's soul.
After all, he is also human.
If he were also in the Western Continent at this moment.
Then, those mythical creatures probably wouldn't dare to be as rampant as they are now.
"I see."
The girl in the black dress nodded. She didn't show much emotion when she heard what Liliana said.
Liliana is not a human being, and she is not a human being either, so naturally she would not feel indignant like "her fellow tribesmen have become vassals of mythical creatures."
The reason why she paid attention to human information, from beginning to end, was only because of Char.
"So, what about the Dark Tower?"
"There is not much information about the Black Tower in the subconscious ocean of the spiritual world, which means that this information is not widely known by the people of the Western Continent and is only circulated in a small range."
"This seems to be the inference made by the mythical creatures based on the clues."
"There is movement in the deepest part of the star realm..."
"According to them, the golden elf, Sister Hathaway, is about to come back."
"And when she returns—"
"That is the day when the Dark Tower was built."
…
"Has the main material plane already reached such a critical point?"
On the chair woven by the night, the girl in the black dress gently tapped her delicate chin. "I see."
"Thank you for your hard work this time, Lily. Go to the city and rest first."
"good."
Although there are still many doubts in my heart that I want to explore.
But at this moment, Liliana still just responded respectfully and then retreated quietly.
The entire hall became silent again.
All that was left were the pensive girl in the black dress and the human figure on the frozen throne.
After a long time——
The girl in the black dress, or Augustina, just woke up from her deep thoughts.
She gently turned her body and looked at the young man who seemed to be sleeping on the throne.
"Did you hear that, Char..."
"Or rather, Master."
There was a faint arc at the corner of Augustina's mouth.
"The master you've been thinking about will soon return from the star realm."
"And once you come back, you want to fulfill your dream and build a tower called the Black Tower that belongs only to wizards."
"But... your teacher's current situation should not be very good..."
"After you caused such a big commotion, the existence of the Lost Island and its secrets are no longer secrets in the eyes of those false gods who survived from before the Cataclysm."
"The Lost Island... that involves some of the remains of the Creator of the Glorious Era. It may even be directly related to the ownership of the Throne of the New Era..."
"By then, your golden elf teacher will most likely be targeted by a bunch of half-crazy false gods—"
"Although I think Hathaway has probably already prepared to make the whole world her enemy..."
"But are you really willing to give it up?"
"Sleeping alone, watching the girl you love the most, or at least your second most, fighting alone..."
"A few months ago, I noticed that the ancient wave disappeared..."
"So, it's about time to wake up."
Augustina's soft whispers faded into the night.
And on the frozen throne, the young man with his head bowed was still sleeping, without any movement.
"I am the one who said too much."
Augustina pursed her red lips, and a hint of complex colors flashed in her eyes.
"That's your favorite Shi-chan... She's just like Xiao Ai, she's already been branded by you, a girl who only belongs to you."
"Even if I don't tell you, if she is in danger, then even if it's not time for you to wake up, you will definitely wake up by force and save her from danger."
"Just as you did more than five hundred years ago."
She murmured softly, and her red-gold dragon eyes gradually became distant.
"One day——"
"I can also have a place in your heart."
"Become your hero who will come to save me if I cry out." ”
"The only heroine?"
…
Augustina's soft whispers faded into the night, and no one heard them.
She sighed softly, then leaned lazily on the seat.
The next moment, Augustina's white fingers slightly clenched towards the void.
The faint night is emerging.
An exquisite and gorgeous glass wine glass appeared in her hand quietly along with the night.
The deep red wine swayed slightly with the rhythm of her fingers, reflecting a colorful glow.
"I've been really bored for the past five hundred years."
"Even the winemaking technology was developed because I had nothing to do."
"But this is my own choice."
"My friendship with Hathaway is only one of the reasons why I helped the Elf King. The bigger reason is that I want to help you."
"Although I know that you didn't have the energy to take care of these things at the time, and the elves on the Lost Island were all infected with the curse of the old sun god, and you were also worried that the old sun god had a backup plan that would threaten Hathaway's safety—"
"That's why I forced the entire Lost Island to fall into the abyss with you."
"But in your heart, you still feel a lot of guilt for those elves of the Lost Island who were implicated by you and fell into the abyss just after they escaped the control of the old sun god."
"Over the years, I have taken care of the Elf King's Court and helped them build the Snow Wind City—"
"It can be considered as helping you make up for your guilt towards the Lost Island."
As she spoke, Augustina raised her glass.
The rim of the glass touched lightly, and the deep red wine made the delicate red lips even more vivid.
But at this moment, Augustina's movements suddenly paused slightly.
The next moment, she looked at the glass wine glass between her white fingers, and her eyes gradually became profound.
"I've put so much effort into brewing this fine wine, I'd like you to taste it..."
"Although it's a bit troublesome for you to drink in your current state..."
"but--"
"It's not that there is no solution at all."
She pursed her bright red lips and poured the wine in the glass into her mouth.
"At this point in time, Xiao Ai's will should still be dormant..."
Over the past five hundred years, Augustina has gradually figured out some rules.
The holy spear, and the girl's heart that resides in it, have to assist Char in his fight in the spiritual world, so they are said to be resting and dormant.
Of course, even if the Holy Lance is dormant, it will be activated immediately if Char's body is in danger.
only……
From the beginning to the end, what Augustina wanted to do was not to harm Char.
But a little insignificant——
It's just the intention of "plotting something bad".
Augustina's figure gradually moved closer to the young man on the throne.
