Chapter 258

"...Did we go directly to Antarctica?" In the deep night with snow and wind, Camus slowly turned his head and asked Lancermello to confirm their whereabouts.

"We are now on a snowy mountain at an altitude of 6,000 meters deep in the Antarctic Circle." Lansermello projected a pair of glasses onto Camus' face, "We are just unlucky to be caught in a blizzard - put on the glasses, this is a magic outfit that can enhance vision in a blizzard; it can also double as a magic eye to block vision."

"Then... when will we return to East Siberia?" Camilla was silent for a moment, and stopped herself from asking about the future arrangements. "Although the training place of the last generation of Aquarius Gold Saints was also in East Siberia, Brugrad itself does not have close contact with ordinary people."

"And the place where I studied is just a broad place called Eastern Siberia."

"The training sites for your generation were all designated by the previous generation - but only the previous generation, Aquarius, did not make a clear designation." Lansemero used magic to prop up a barrier to block the wind and snow, and explained the arrangement of the training site to Camus. "He just said that he does not recommend the next generation to come to Brugrad. Considering my personal familiarity with various places, after excluding Northern Europe where Aphrodite is, I can only put you back in East and West Siberia."

"so……"

"So the exact location has not been determined yet." Lansemero used magic to illuminate the snow-capped mountains in front of the two of them, and looked at the hillside leading straight to the coastline. "Where do you want to choose as your training place? Among the training places that can be chosen, East Siberia is relatively familiar to me."

"Which place are you generally more familiar with? If we don't consider the restrictions of the training site." Camus followed Lancelmero slowly down and asked her the question.

"I'm more familiar with Western Europe, or here - among the places you can go now." Lansemello smiled and walked along the route from Shadow Border to Terryton in his past memory. "Is there any place you want to go? For example, near the ocean or inland?"

"Where do you recommend me to go?" Camus threw the question back to Lancermello.

"Personally, I recommend you go to a place closer to the forest." Lansemero told Camus his thoughts naturally, "There is no other reason, but compared to the ocean, the connection between me and the forest is deeper - it will be easier to clean up after your training in the future."

"Then I will live on the edge of the village by the sea in East Siberia." In the midst of the wind and snow, Camus made the final plan for his training place.

They did not stay in Antarctica for too long and soon returned to East and West Siberia. Camus chose a location to build a residence on the ice field close to the sea and far away from human habitation. Then, under the supervision of Lancermelo, the construction of the residence became a part of the Saints' training.

Kamius's new permanent residence was of the common Nordic style - stone walls, fireplaces, and simple partitions between areas.

Camus couldn't make the furniture by himself for the time being - so Lansemero, who was temporarily responsible for giving Camus one-on-one teaching, used projection magic as an emergency measure to solve the furniture problem.

At this moment, the two of them were huddled in front of the fireplace to discuss the next arrangements.

"...Next, we should choose the nearest village to establish contact to solve the problem of supply of daily necessities - but what can I give in exchange?" Sitting by the warm fire lit by magic, Camus stared at his notebook and began to worry, "Besides, no one would believe that a 7-year-old child lives alone in a place like this, and would allow me to come back by myself."

"I'm not good at negotiating with ordinary people." Lansermero changed his posture and sank into the soft chair, but his eyes never left the stove. "But if you only need daily necessities, I have other channels to supply you - but I think the first thing we should do is to confirm what kind of currency is used here now."

"Magicians use either British pounds or US dollars... I almost forgot that there are other currencies in this world." The next day, Lancer Melo, who took Camus into the village to observe the situation, complained helplessly to William in the consciousness communication, "However, speaking of the ruble, the ruble at this time has not depreciated so much that it can only be regarded as a pile of waste paper."

"Haha, do you need me to take some time to help you keep an eye on the price changes of daily necessities?" William asked with a smile.

"Forget it. Camus and I don't have rubles, so there's no need to pay attention to it. I don't need these living supplies, but he is still a person after all." Lansemello watched Camus writing and drawing on the notebook he carried with him, just like Dieter in the past. "I want to see what kind of solution he can come up with. If he can't think of a solution, I can use your channels again."

"Okay, I understand." William ended the conversation and returned to his busy daily routine of working for the group.

Lancermello accompanied Camus to the village of Kohotik to carefully observe the transaction situation. When the observation was over, on the way back to the residence after leaving the village, Camus proposed the idea of ​​turning ordinary training into hunting beasts.

"You are planning to barter - but this is indeed a stable way, and you won't be involved in the troubles of the monetary system." Lansermello accompanied Camus, who was carrying the holy cloth box, deep into the forest, while confirming the situation of Kohotik Village that he learned from his observations, "But hunting ordinary beasts can't achieve the effect of Saint training, right?"

"...I found the notes of the previous generation of Aquarius in the Aquarius Palace." Camus stopped and looked back at Lansermero. A bird jumped out from the bushes behind him and rushed into the sky. "In his records, you can copy many fantasy species that do not exist in this era."

"...if you are ready." Lansemello stared at Camus with his fairy eyes to confirm the truth of his words, "During your hunting, I will continue to send various kinds of monsters to attack you - some are adapted to the frozen land, and some are from warmer areas."

"Well, let the training begin."

However, because Lancermello sent monsters to harass Camus too often, the new Aquarius Gold Saint's first hunt was fruitless - so the two finally relied on William's assistance to ensure their short-term survival needs; and some time later, Camus successfully killed prey for the first time under the siege of monsters, and dragged the prey to Kohotik Village alone to exchange supplies.

Because Camus achieved success for the first time in the new training program, the atmosphere in the residence today seemed a little cheerful - Lansemero, who had allowed Camus to go to Kohotik Village alone, returned to the residence early and prepared a cake for celebration before Camus came back with supplies.

Although the familiar's nutritional meal was appallingly bad, Lancermello's cooking skills were at least at the level of a normal person. After returning to his residence, Camus stared at the inappropriate, suspicious, yet very beautiful log cake on the table for a long time, and finally ate it with the idea that food should not be wasted.

"I can't believe that your level is not limited to making such nutritious meals." Camus washed the dishes, put away the exchanged materials, and then sat on his own chair on the other side of the fireplace. "Can we continue to talk about the Aquarius Saint from the previous generation today? I saw a lot of interesting things in his notes."

As early as the day when Camus said that he had seen Dietel's notes, Lancermello used the power of Ereshkigal as a shortcut back to the underworld to ask Dietel about the true situation - except for Dohko and Shion, the bodies of the other Gold Saints who had lost their souls were sealed up by Lancermello along with the surrounding environment.

Unless Dieter had left his notebook behind when he returned to the Sanctuary - but that notebook, which was like a Habe Cat diary, was getting thicker and thicker and contained a lot of content that even Shion could not be told, so how could it have fallen from Dieter's side into the library of Aquarius Palace?

"I have made backup copies of the notes that can be disclosed and placed them in Aquarius." Deep in the underworld, Dieter, in the form of a blue soul flame floating in front of Lansermero, calmly explained his arrangements. "If he had not come into contact with you, he would at most have regarded those records as fantasy novels written by the previous generation to pass the time when they were bored. If you had taught him, he would have understood what I was writing."

"So where do you want to start?" Lansemero interrupted this memory from not long ago and asked Camus what he wanted to know from Dieter's notes. "I have the impression that he recorded a lot of important things in his notes. Based on your foundation before Aiolos's rebellion, you can't understand most of the content."

"Let's start with the composition of this world." Camus closed his eyes, bent down and took out the copy of the notes made by Dieter from the holy cloth box at his feet, "I want to hear about the difference between this world and the world that people know based on science."

"In the Age of Gods, all the realms of Gods are on the same canvas as the human world." Lansemero skillfully integrated the corresponding content in the Chaldean textbooks and told Camus the difference between the past and the present. "Going up to the sky is the Kingdom of God, and going down to the ground is the underworld - but now above the sky is the vast universe, and under the ground is a boiling furnace."

"In addition to the human world, the other two realms have been separated from this painting."

"We generally regard the human world as the main body of this world - after all, humans have become the primates of this world." Lansemero looked at the crackling sparks in the fireplace and gently described the structure of the world in the eyes of the magician. "Based on this, before the end of the Age of Gods, the gods and fantasy creatures migrated to the 'paradise' in the world that still allowed them to exist."

"Humanity is on the surface of the earth, just like the inside of the world, but one is on the front and the other is on the back. The restraining force and the source I told you about before are on the outside of the world." Lansemello stopped answering here, refusing Camus's eyes that wanted to ask more questions, "You can ask other questions tomorrow. It's late now - time to go to bed."
