Chapter 5: Ice Angels

"This building is really high!" Anne couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the transparent palace in front of her, which was more than a hundred meters high.

"The Crystal Palace in the Crystal City, the mirror is reflected in it. Mr. Hat pretended to read something, "Anne, did you come here to feel that this palace is transparent, and have you found the mystery in it?"

Mr. Hat mysteriously sells Guanzi.

Anne looked at the place where her eyes could see, and her heart fluttered.

"Mr. Hat, this place is actually a bit strange. Obviously, visually, the entire palace is transparent, but it is completely impossible to see what people are doing inside. "Anne discovered the evil gate of Crystal City.

"Transparency is just an illusion, just like many people think they know the world, but they are actually ignorant of the world. Mr. Hat sighed as he spoke, "Many people believe that seeing is believing, but in fact, the eyes are deceiving us at some point, and we don't know it ourselves." ”

"Mr. Hat, what can we believe if what we see with our eyes is not real?" asked Anne a question that many people have.

"How do I know that. If all people could have insight into everything in this world like the old one, there would be no Celestial Sect in the world to teach people how to understand this world. Mr. Hat changed the conversation, and the group fell silent as they continued to look at the amazing palace.

"Babble!" Dumb seemed to have finally made a decision, and Dumb prepared to enter the transparent palace.

The sound of heavy footsteps made people feel like the ground was shaking. I saw a tall snowman trotting all the way to Dumb, kneeling on the ground, and telling something.

"Babble!" Dumb replied to the snowman, and the two began to talk.

"This little brother turned out to be such a powerful character. The elf's eyes widened, and slowly seemed to be frightened.

"Little brother said that he is the Lord of the Underworld, I heard you right!" the elf's words were shocking, and Anne was also startled.

"You must have heard it wrong, dumb this guy can't be the Lord of the Underworld. Don't talk nonsense as a translator, it's easy to mislead us. Mr. Hat expressed his displeasure. "Well, it's hard to say. If so, we may have been operating here as the Lord of the Underworld, which would explain why these snowmen are so afraid of us. ”

"Then the real Hades know that if we do this, we will die a miserable death!" The elf looked frightened with a capital letter, and it could be seen that she was still a little afraid of the Hades.

"But ah, I guess something must have happened to the real Hades. Mr. Hat's tone was tinged with a hint of schadenfreude. "The vampire before was very arrogant and dared to give orders in the name of the Lord of the Underworld. I guess the real Lord of the Underworld is either dead or very weak and has to hide. ”

"I seem to have heard this snowman say that the patriarch of their snowman clan ran away!" the elf was still listening to the conversation between Dumb and the snowman, and his expression became more and more surprised, "What the hell is going on, why is the patriarch of the snowman clan afraid of the little brother, and when he heard that he was coming, he quickly ran away?"

"Hahaha, I guess that guy thinks Dumb is the real underworld, and he doesn't dare to see him. Mr. Hat laughed.

"Where are we going now?" Seeing Dumb stop talking to the snowman, the snowman stood aside, Dumb walked into the crystal palace, and Anne asked curiously.

"Little brother just said that he was going to the magic array. The elf looked at Anne with wide eyes, "Let's go too, or there might be danger here." ”

So the group walked into the palace of the Crystal Palace.

"That's what it looks like here!" Anne complained as she looked at the wall in front of her that was covered with runes and long scrolls.

"Isn't there something special about this place?" Mr. Hat's voice came from under the dragon's ass.

"This place has a strange feeling that I can't put into words. I thought it would be full of gold and luxury, but I didn't expect it to be anything but this strange wall. Anne searched the runes on the wall and found that she didn't recognize any of the words.

"There's nothing to fuss about, Crystal City is also a mecca for snowmen. If you think about their state of drinking blood, how do you know what luxury is. For them, it's nice to have something to eat. And this place wasn't originally built for the snowman, it was originally a contact center to connect to other hells. Mr. Hat thought for a moment, and then continued: "If this palace has an owner, then its owner is the Ice Angel. Speaking of which, I haven't seen that guy in over 300 years, and I don't know where he is now, and it's weird how these snowmen got into Crystal City. ”

"Boom!" The little dragon suddenly cried out happily, as if he had found something interesting.

"Cutie, what's wrong?" Anne had just finished speaking, when she noticed that a black air was filling the entire palace.

"Ha, I'll just say, where the ice angel is, how can the snowman live in. Mr. Hat stared at the black gas and said coldly.

"Babbling...... Dumb suddenly recited an extra-long spell, only to see that the runes on the wall seemed to echo Dumb's words, and every time Dumb said a word, a character became brighter. As time passed, the runes on the entire wall became shiny, and the murals that reflected the walls also changed.

"This is amazing!" Mr. Hat's words sounded, and the mural on the wall seemed to come to life, slowly imprinted into people's minds. The scenery around her was constantly changing, and finally, after a period of vertigo, Anne felt as if she had entered a dream, and her consciousness began to blur.

"Babble!" Dumb voice woke Anne up. Seeing that the elf was looking at herself with concern at the moment, Anne looked around and saw that it seemed to be in a closed stone room.

"Well, where is this?" asked the elf when she woke up.

"I don't know, it seems like we just opened some teleportation circle and sent us to this place. The elf looked at Anne with concern, and saw that she was indeed all right, and then relieved.

"The Seal of the Immortal!" Mr. Hat's voice suddenly sounded, and Anne noticed a corpse frozen in a huge block of ice on the stone platform next to it.

"Wow, this is ......" Anne couldn't help but ask, but the corpse in the ice was so strange that Anne didn't react for a moment.

"It's an angel!" the elf shouted excitedly, picking up Anne's words.

"Angel?" Anne's mind was full of questions. Looking closely into the ice, I saw several large wings behind the corpse in the ice, which seemed to match the legendary angel image.

"This is an angel, what, I didn't lie to you before! Angel frozen in ice, referred to as Ice Angel. Mr. Hat's tone was full of ridicule, "This angel is the guardian of Ice Hell, I didn't expect his skills to grow to such an extent that he could freeze himself too." ”

"Wow, little brother is going to start reciting the Ancient Demon Script again!" shouted the elf.

I saw Dumb take two steps forward, as if he was nostalgic, and walked around the platform under the big ice block. Scratching his hand over one strange rune after another on the table, tears glistening in the corners of his eyes. The little dragon sat on Dumb's head and let out a slight sob.

"Jakes!" Anne had seen Dumb look so sad for the first time.

"Babble...... Dumb read the runes engraved on the platform, and his voice was full of pathos.

"Jakes!" Anne couldn't understand what Dumb said, but she felt that she couldn't hold back her tears, and she just wanted to cry.

"Wow~" The elf next to him reacted a little bigger than Anne and had already started crying.

"Oh, that's enough, be quiet, let Dumb finish the spell, why are you crying one by two?" Mr. Hat shouted, and Anne and the elf were startled and calmed down from their grief.

"Elf, can you help me translate what Jakes is talking about?" Anne whispered to Elf, lest she disturb Dumb, who was chanting a spell.

"I don't understand this. Ancient magic is a legendary language that only those who understand can understand what it means. I don't understand, so I don't know what my little brother is going to say. "The elf flashed big eyes, giving it a misty feeling.

"Then why did you know what Jakes was talking about?" Anne asked curiously, unable to comprehend the elf's performance.

"I've been guessing all along! I don't know what it feels like, but I feel like I'm understanding. The elf's face was innocent, and Anne was even more dazed. Whether it's because the world she lives in now is too strange, or because the elves are not human after all, so their way of thinking is different from that of humans, Anne doesn't know. Or something is destined to be a mystery.

"It's finally over, little one, you can come down!" Mr. Hat's words sounded, and I saw the little dragon who had squatted on Mr. Hat before "Hello" twice, then turned around, said hello to Anne playfully, made a grimace, and then returned to Dumb's left hand and went to sleep.

The sound of "boom boom" came, and a large crack appeared on the large ice block on the stone platform at this time. Slowly, the ice began to crumble little by little, and soon the large ice cubes turned into countless Xiaoice pieces, and the Xiaoice pieces slid to the ground like broken glass slags, and all disappeared.

On the stone platform, the gray-white earth ice angel is like a statue, motionless.
