"Is this the Upper World, the World of the High Elves?" Ciri looked at the new world in front of her, and she watched curiously, golden clouds drifting in the sky, and a huge boundless tree in the city in the distance, with its hanging branches and leaves covering half of the city. However, the canopy and leafy branches that stretched out to the sky for an unknown number of meters were hidden from the outside world. The huge tree, emitting an endless and soft light, looked up at the sky, and could not see the sun that radiated endless light and heat. Ciri voiced his doubts, "Isn't there no sun in this world?" ”

Jiang Ning nodded and explained to her, "Yes, there is no sun and moon here!" He said, "Our world is different from what you imagined!" We are a group of lonely wanderers, because of an accident, the whole world is drifted in the endless void. Until an anomaly, we came here and were able to get the light of the sun in the neighboring region. It was not until the birth of the sacred tree that we were completely freed from this predicament. The light and heat here during the day come from the sacred tree, and at night, the sacred tree replaces the sun and transforms into the moon, continuing to emit a soft light to dispel the darkness. ”

"It's incredible!" Ciri marveled that it was the first time she had seen such a strange world. Everything here subverts her three views and cognitions, and at the same time, it is so fascinating.

"Do you have a lot of people?" On the way to the city, Ciri couldn't suppress her curiosity as she looked at the dense luxury manors on both sides of the road, the elves coming in and out, and the many humans working in the fields.

"Only a few hundred thousand people!"

"And these humans, who are?" Cieri gestured to the humans working in the fields. Jiang Ning said: "These are the descendants of prisoners of war who tried in vain to replace us and seize our homeland. ”

"How is this possible?" The High Elves gave her the impression of being mysterious and powerful, but the Elf King beside her told a secret secret, which made Ciri's eyes widen in disbelief.

"After we settled down in the beginning, our people were able to study a lot of knowledge and technology with peace of mind because of the stable environment. We reclaim the land around the city, grow grain, vegetables, fruits, and raise livestock. However, we arrived because of an anomaly. ”

"The Celestial Spheres Meet?" Ciri asked hesitantly.

Jiang Ning nodded, "That's right, that's it." He said, "In the beginning, our world, as I told you earlier, was alone in the endless void. Until due to the influence of the confluence of the celestial spheres, we were successfully captured by the infinite gravitational pull caused by this great change. Therefore, we are not lonely drifters, but settlers with a stable place to live. In the beginning, we never had the idea of exploring the Otherworld. ”

"However, the reason for the confluence of the celestial spheres has caused many worlds to penetrate each other, and our world has also opened otherworldly passages everywhere. We have a passage to the other world, and the other world has a passage into our world. It was then that many otherworldly beings entered our world. In the beginning, we didn't notice it. But over time, otherworldly creatures have come to be known to us. Along with evil comes many ill-intentioned people who seek to take over our world by means of war and killing. However, they failed. And the vanquished, naturally, will be punished, and they must pay for their sins at the cost of their own freedom for generations. ”

"All of these people are descendants of that group of prisoners of war?"

Jiang Ning shook his head, "Not all!" "After those initial 'turbulent years,' because our world had many paths to the otherworld," he said. Because of this, for a long time, our world has always been filled with many otherworldly creatures. Good ones are accepted by us and live here as members of the world. And those who plot against the wrong side, what will happen to you, believe me if I don't say it, you know. ”

Ciri nodded, she grew up in the court since she was a child, and she wandered the world with the collapse of the country, which can be said to have suffered a lot. Therefore, she is different from those girls who are not deeply involved in the world and are full of romance. She understands the rules of this world.

"You just said that in your world, too, there is a group of good ones?"

Jiang Ning said: "That's right, in many worlds, there are not only humans, but also intelligent races such as elves, dwarves, goblins, and halflings. There are also races like dragons, unicorns, and forest elves. Some are evil, some are good, and our world welcomes them in the world. ”

"Your friends, those unicorns also live in our world. They reside in the Valley of the Unicorns, and you can visit them whenever you want. ”

As for how the elf king next to him knew that he was friends with the unicorn, Ciri was not interested in knowing, or maybe he didn't care. She was happy that she could see her friends again. Ciri still remembers the pony who helped him out of his predicament in the desert, helped him find water, and saved his life. And for the old unicorn that helped him master his power and escape from Ain El in the world of Ain El, Ciri has also been grateful. Now, she was very happy to see them again.

"Really, thank you so much."

Jiang Ning smiled, "You are a guest of our clan, just as I said when I brought you here. I will not restrict your freedom, in our world, you can think of it as your home. ”

"Thank you!" Ciri is here, though it's still a short time. But from the conversation to the coming to this strange world, she felt a long-lost warmth.

There is not much calculation, and there is no unknown exploitation. At the beginning of the purpose of finding her, Jiang Ning made it clear. What's more, there is no restriction on her activities, which makes Ciri very happy.

"You said you wanted me to help you, I don't know when it started?" "Actually, I'm curious," Ciri said. ”

Jiang Ning said: "There is no rush in this matter at present, and we have a lot of preparations to be made. It's not over for a while, and when the preparations are complete, we'll need you to help us. ”

"I just don't know if I'll be able to accomplish what you're talking about, and I don't know exactly what I'm going to do at the moment."

Jiang Ning knew the hidden worries in her heart, so she said, "I told you just now that we are from somewhere else. I need your help, and I just want to help us find our way home through the power in you. ”

"You're getting out of here? Leaving this world? ”

Jiang Ning shook his head, "You said something wrong, it's not that we want to leave." Rather, we leave with our world together! The resources here are too poor, and there are more expansive resources in other places. Staying here serves no purpose other than a futile waste of time. ”

"Everything today has completely turned the world and environment I imagined it to be." Indeed, through today's dialogue, Ciri's three views have been completely subverted. She realized that the vastness of the universe and the multiplicity of the world were not limited to the world she knew and had been to or understood. In the outside world, in other universes, there is still a wider world.
