Chapter 45: To the Forest of Eternal Night

Falling Snow Village, this day, as usual, was a snowstorm night.

But something different, so to speak, dramatically changed, and something terrifying happened.

The endless blizzards have destroyed the only remaining vitality. Most of the houses in the village were covered by endless snow.

The snowfall village was buried alive under the heavy snow.

This is what happened a week after Chen Lin and Athena lived here.

It's going to change, and disaster is coming.

Before leaving, Uncle Luca knelt in the snow in despair, tears in his eyes.

"She still hasn't come back, she's still gone!!"

"She didn't come back to see me! Why! ”

Chen Lin patted Luca on the shoulder and sighed, not knowing what to say.

Athena glanced at him from the side and said, "Hey, do you want to continue to live here, your house will be swallowed up by the snow sooner or later." ”

With its harsh environment, remote terrain and little contact with the outside world, it is not surprising that such a village quietly disappeared at some point without warning.

Uncle Luca knew what was going on with the village, of course, but he still had a fantasy in his heart. This fantasy prompted him to give his life here. He never knew why the mysterious Snow Maiden came to his house. Why would it be with him***. Why did he have a child with her.

Where the hell did that kid go? Uncle Luca didn't know. Chen Lin doesn't know.

"Fate...... Escaped the terrible curse. But I don't want to destroy the village. ”

Uncle Luca fell to his knees in the snow and muttered to himself.

It was so sudden, it was like a dream.

In the past few days, Chen Lin chatted with Athena every day, the sea and the sky, and when he was tired, he went to the only tavern in the village to buy some meat, returned to Luca's house, and the three of them ate together. Uncle Luca tells Chen Lin the story of his wife, Snow Girl, every day. It seemed to be the happiest time of Uncle Luca's life, and the only happy time of his day.

Chen Lin listened quietly, and sometimes empathized with Luca.

As for Athena, when she had finished eating, she went to the bed in the back room, covered herself with a quilt, and fell asleep by herself.

Luca is also old, and after chatting with Chen Lin for a while after dinner, he couldn't resist his tiredness and went to bed.

So Chen Lin also went to the back room in the dark and went to bed. Lie down beside Athena.

Sometimes Chen Lin is thinking, all this is unimaginable, Athena, a goddess, is lying on the same bed with herself without hesitation?

Or is she not interested in the affection between men and women at all?

Chen Lin didn't think much about it, because this place was simply cold, even if the bed was leaning against the back of the fireplace, Chen Lin would still wake up from the cold several times.

Athena, on the other hand, either didn't say anything all night, or pulled up Chen Lin, who was very sleepy, and chatted with her for a long time.

Such a day made Chen Lin feel happy.

Sleeping in the same bed with Athena every day, although nothing happened, it still made Chen Lin feel at ease, and a warm current was born from the bottom of his heart.

……

"Uncle Luca. Thank you for your hospitality these days. Chen Lin sighed and took out a few gold coins from his arms.

This is the coin that Diao Chan gave himself in the Land of Black Sands.

Through this month in the realm of kings, Chen Lin also had a general understanding of the coin conversion here.

A gold coin can make an ordinary family live for a month without worrying about food and clothing.

Lukka didn't answer, he looked at Chen Lin, then at Athena, sighed, and said, "Two, in the remaining days of my Lucca, being able to meet you two has added a little joy to my lifeless life." I...... I was very ......"

Before the words fell, two old tears couldn't help but fall again.

"I'm very happy......"

Lukka lay on the ground, buried his head deep in the snow, and his body trembled.

As soon as Chen Lin and the others leave, Luca will fall into loneliness again.

……

……

"What do you think the Snow Maiden will be?"

Chen Lin asked, but Athena next to him did not speak, looking uninterested in it at all. Looking at her appearance, she has been thinking about something in the last few days.

The two of them were already a long way away from the Falling Snow Village, and according to the map, they only needed to walk for another day to reach the Eternal Night Forest on the mainland.

The Forest of Eternal Night, like no other in the world. As the name suggests, this forest has a never-ending night.

The inhabitants are a group of elves with beautiful appearances.

Dark Elves, Fire Elves, Water Elves, Grass Elves......

This forest is extremely large and vast, and it is the second largest country in the western region after the country of Babieka, the elven country.

"O Elven Country......"

After listening to Athena's introduction, Chen Lin sighed a little, this world is really colorful and mysterious. Moreover, Chen Lin suddenly wanted to wait to see these elves.

"Those elves are all very handsome. Ordinary people, they can't see them at all. ”

Athena looked at Chen Lin's reaction and said: "Even in my country, there are only two or three families with elves, and they are still the supreme royal families. There is a very strict rule in the elven kingdom, the elves are not allowed to go out, and outsiders are not allowed to set foot in their territory. ”

Chen Lin was curious: "Then how can those people in your country have elves?" ”

Athena said, "The world is full of countless creature traffickers, hunters. When they entered, they found lone elves, and they controlled them, stunned them, and sold them to the royal family in the empire. ”

Chen Lin said angrily: "This is a human ...... Elf dealers, right? ”

Athena smiled and said, "That's a good point. Elven traffickers. The elven clan is naturally handsome, and those powerful Ren are coveting their beauty. Anything you can to get them. ”

Along the way, since the two of them left the snowy village, the climate has become warmer.

There was no snow and it was clear all the way.

Although the surrounding environment has rough mountain roads, grassy fields, and occasional showers.

All of this made Chen Lin's heart liberated and healed.

Athena led the unicorn and walked in front of her, without saying a word.

Chen Lin didn't notice her expression, he was looking at the map.

"If you walk like this, it will take you a long time to reach the Forest of Eternal Night." Chen Lin looked at Athena and asked curiously, "Athena, I've always been curious, what do you want to do when you escape from your country?" Not ready to go back? ”

Athena glanced back at Chen Lin and asked, "You say, am I really a kind person?" ”
