"Edgar? Do you know him? Freya was slightly stunned. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoRead the full text. More Visits:.
"Of course, I remember that we traded once three hundred years ago." Dolores smiled. "That guy is a businessman, and his biggest interest is to open a shop in the known world, peddling some relatively rare things, basically every once in a while, someone wants to come to him through various channels, and it seems that you are one of them."
"Really?" Freya nodded knowingly, lost in thought.
Through this brief 'exchange', she had vaguely guessed a rough idea.
This is a place called the Tavern of the Rising Sun, which exists at the root of the world, and appears to be a defensive station similar to that of a war front.
The people in this tavern seem to be beings similar to the guardians of the world.
And as Dolores said, as long as you are the guardian of the world, it seems that you should know about this place because of the world inheritance.
However, she doesn't seem to know what world inheritance she has so far, and she has been able to get to where she is now, only by relying on her own slow 'groping'.
Speaking of which, it seems that something is really being overlooked. Freya frowned slightly.
She recalled all the worlds she had experienced, and they seemed to be more active than the wizarding world.
Whether it is the hell world or the abyss world, there are many creatures in the rules of the world inside, and even the lowest abyss world has an abyss lord to guard.
So far, I seem to be the only one in the wizarding world, why is that? Freya's heart was full of doubts.
She was sure that the wizarding world could not be a low-level world at all, if not a high world.
If the Guardians of the World are the embodiment of the rules of the world, then is it true that the rules of the wizarding world are incomplete? The thought popped into Freya's head.
If that's true, it's not good news.
A world without rules is itself a very serious flaw, and the slightest carelessness can lead to the collapse of the world.
Thinking of this, Freya's face became a little 'gloomy'.
Even though she had the heart to give up her identity as the guardian of the world for the sake of her beliefs, she didn't want the wizarding world to collapse suddenly.
However, since Dolores and Edgar belong to the same level of existence. Then her understanding of the world must be more thorough than that of a halfway girl.
Of course, the premise of these questions is that her own guesses are correct.
After a pause, Freya looked up at Dolores and said in a serious tone.
"Mr. Dolores. I would like to ask you a question. ”
"Please say ra;." Dolores said casually.
"I would like to ask what the World Heritage is and the relationship between the World Guardian and the World Heritage."
"The question of world inheritance is very complicated, and it is related to the root of each world, so I can't answer this more." Dolores groaned, then said. "Still. I can explain to you the relationship between the world inheritance and the world guardian, the relationship between the two is a bit like a mother and child, the world inheritance gives birth to the world rules, and the direction of the inheritance represents the direction of the world, and the world guardian is the embodiment of the world rules, which belongs to the management and maintenance of the world rules to make it develop steadily. ”
The answer was basically in line with what Freya had in mind, and she asked.
"Then for example, why is it that I don't know the guardian of my world's inheritance?"
"There are many reasons for this, it may be because your world is still in the bud, and your own world consciousness is still very ignorant and does not have the power to inherit. It may also be because the world consciousness is sleeping, of course, this situation is much more complicated, after all, there are many reasons for sleeping, and there is a certain chance that some world guardians will miss the inheritance. ”
Dolores looked Freya up and down, 'touched' her chin, and said. "It's not the first way to look at you, maybe you're missing it, but the World Legacy can actually be known through other World Guardians, but it's a little more troublesome."
Hearing Dolores' explanation and thinking of the previous guess, Freya's face was slightly difficult to look at.
"That. What if I am the only guardian of my world that I know so far? ”
"Huh? You mean you're the only Guardian of the World?? Dolores was slightly stunned, then became serious. That's not right. Although the guardians of the world belong to the will of individuals, they should all have subtle feelings and connections with each other, could it be that the lack of world rules has caused the world consciousness to sleep and cannot be inherited? ”
"I think it should be like this," Freya said with a dark face.
"Every world and every civilization connected by the Root of the World is very precious to us, and since you can come here, then it means that your world is also an existence recognized by the Root of the World." Dolores groaned and continued. "I am half of the guide of the root of the world. If you trust me, come with me, the answer may be there. ”
Ever since she woke up in the Rising Sun Hotel, Freya hadn't felt any hostility, she thought for a moment, and then nodded.
"Okay, then I'll bother you."
"Hmm." Dolores beckoned to her and turned around. "Let's go."
Freya stood up and followed closely behind him.
Walking past the tables and chairs in the tavern, the two of them came to a wooden 'door' behind the bar.
Dolores didn't make any moves, and the wooden door was opened, revealing a narrow path of silver-gray metal.
On both sides of the road was a pitch-black space, shimmering with a dense bright silver light, like a starry sky.
Freya followed Dolores, her eyes swept around curiously, her 'spirit' sense seemed to be out of order for the first time, and the 'spirit' tentacles were all nothingness except for the high-tech road under her feet.
It's like a universe without boundaries.
It seems to sense Freya's doubts, Dolores explained.
"This is the Astral Bridge, and outside the bridge is 'Infinity', and if you accidentally fly out, it will be very, very troublesome to come back."
Freya didn't speak, just nodded.
It seemed that the existence of the root of this world was not what the information she had seen depicted.
And through Dolores's description, she vaguely felt that the Root of the World was more like an organization so large that it stretched to countless worlds.
'Incredible,' she muttered to herself.
After the two of them walked on the road called the 'Astral Bridge' for two hours, a wooden 'door' appeared in the silver pavement in front of them.
The wooden door opened automatically, and the two walked in one after the other.
Behind the 'door' is a huge starry sky that looks like a bowl down, and at the foot is a mirror-like ground.
Freya looked at the space with a somewhat dull expression, and she could even feel a cool night breeze on her cheeks.
Every step you take. The ground was filled with ripples, and the ripples kept stretching, as if there was no end.
The two walked for another ten minutes, and Dolores turned around.
"You stand here and wait a minute."
"Okay." Freya nodded. Stand still.
Seeing Freya's appearance, Dolores smiled and turned to look at the starry sky overhead, at this time his dark eyes returned to a strange state of blue and red again.
And in the pupils of his different 'colored' eyes, two rotating hourglasses slowly appeared.
Freya, who was standing behind him, seemed to sense something and looked up.
Saw. The originally silent starry sky suddenly lit up with a trace of silver light, and these silver lights were intertwined like silk threads, and after a while, a huge translucent tentacle was suspended in the sky.
The tentacles writhed as if they had a sense of their own, and then descended in the direction of Dolores.
The ends of the tentacles quivered slightly, and then an old face emerged.
The face looked at Dolores and squeezed out an ugly smile.
"Hey, Dolo, long time no see, how did you remember to contact me, didn't you retire more than a thousand years ago? Can't bear the loneliness and want to come back, Serena has been waiting for you. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, Alecto." Dolores said expressionlessly. "I'm here to ask you to help me look up something, about a world with great potential that may have a fall risk event, a world where the roots of the world are also ignored."
"Really? That's a really serious matter, what about space-time coordinates? ”
Hearing his question, Dolores leaned slightly and 'revealed' Freya's figure.
"This is the guardian of that world."
The huge tentacles behind the face turned slightly, and suddenly saw Freya, whose face was 'revealed' with a suspicious and 'confused' expression.
"A new guardian of the world. It seems that there is something missing, let me see, little one, relax, I will not hurt you. ”
Watched by an old face named Alecto. Freya had an indescribable feeling, as if her body had become transparent.
So much so that her own king snake bloodline was a little boiling, and she couldn't help but want to change into a form.
"There is no discovery of the world inheritance, a small amount of rain and the rules of life, with a special time belonging to the soul of 'sex' Well, this is to represent order. This represents neutrality"
The face muttered incomprehensible words, and the translucent tentacles behind him slowly rose and fell.
The silver 'colored' points of light are peeled off, forming a huge planet 'touch' shape.
He seemed to be looking for something through Freya's body.
These translucent planetary phantoms flickered rapidly, and after a while, a pale blue 'colored' planet suddenly stopped.
There was a faint gray-black halo around the planet, and in addition to the blue color that represented the seawater, there was also the earthy yellow color of the land, but there were also many small black areas that seemed to be shrouded in something.
And when Freya saw the planet, a wonderful sense connected to her, which was the increase of the power of the world on her strength.
"I seem to have found it, is this it? Bub. Alecto wondered.
"Yes." Freya nodded. "This is my world."
"Oh, that's good."
When Freya was confirmed, the planet representing the wizarding world slowly enlarged in front of the two of them.
The tentacles brought Alecto's face to the front of the planet, and a glimmer of silver 'color' shone quickly flowed in his eyes.
"The barriers of the world have been seriously damaged, the will of the world has fallen into a deep sleep, and the rules are missing, it seems that this used to be a relatively high world, otherwise this kind of damage is enough to make the middle and lower worlds directly become 'infinite' nourishment, and the injury of the world's will will will cause the guardians who have obtained the world inheritance to also fall into a deep sleep, oh? In such a catastrophic nature, the civilization of this world can still develop to such an extent, and it seems that it is the protection of this civilization that has not further deteriorated the world, and this kind of case is really rare in most worlds, and it seems that it is our negligence. ”
Listening to Alecto's continuous analysis, Dolores said directly.
"How about a former high-level world, directly repairing remote barriers?"
"Nope." Alector shook his head. "This world is very fragile now, our strength is too strong, if it is repaired, it can only be repaired in a gentle way with the will of the world, otherwise you don't want to see it destroyed in advance, and I think the civilization of this world has developed very well, and it has actually reached the point of plundering the resources of other lower worlds, and it may be the same as the Claredor world after a while."
"The powerful civilization that uses the power of science and technology to transform the entire world?" Hearing the name of this world, Dolores raised an eyebrow. "That civilization is just a special case, and to that extent, it basically prevents the emergence of world guardians, for us, in addition to creating cannon fodder to resist low-level void creatures, the potential value is really limited, I think it's better to develop a naturally developed world, is there any other way?"
"If you don't want to repair it for a long time, then you can only catch a high-level void creature and make up for it after decomposing it, I think the traces of the destruction of the barrier of this world seem to be the result of the void invasion, which may be related to our last battle, however, I think that even though this world has a very large potential value, the weight of a high-level void creature is still too much, unless you can make some kind of guarantee, or rather, the little guy behind you is willing to pay something"
"Guaranteed?" Dolores shook her head. "I'm retired, and you're just a tavern owner, you know, now, so only"
He looked back at Freya.
Freya, who understood what he meant, said carefully.
"What do you have to pay?"
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just a work contract." Alector's old face smiled slightly. "The Root of the World needs a new Guardian of the World like you to maintain the 'infinite' order, and there are things in it that you can't imagine, even the 'truth' of the Root of the World."
