"Whales are one of the few second-class creatures that still exist in this world. The whale's voice echoed through the wide cave, "In ancient history, we were called giant beasts, and our huge size made our bodies look like a moving collection of beings many times, so it became difficult for us to die naturally. ”

"Compared to the other existing second type of creatures, the death of dragons is much simpler. This is probably due to the fact that the relationship between them is not very harmonious. If a dragon enters the end of its life, it probably won't go through the process of natural death. will become a ration for other dragons, contributing to the growth of other dragons. But in the whale pack, that doesn't happen. Explaining the difference between the two, the whale slowed down significantly after entering the iceberg cave.

"You should have noticed those blue crystals that look like alien creeps. That's the standard process for us to die, and the reason why there is so much energy surrounding the mountain here is because of the members of the whale herd who are constantly dying, and the blue crystals. ”

"Usually every whale in the pack feels its death at the end of its life. At that point, these individuals will voluntarily lean towards this place and enter. They will choose a suitable position on their own and gradually lose their vital activity. However, although the life activities are gradually weakening, the energy that has accumulated over a long period of time in our huge body cannot be released well. If these forces are not released properly, or if our huge body is not properly handled, when the spirit in it is gone, the uncontrolled body may develop in a bad direction. ”

The whales seem to be telling a piece of their pack's history.

"There has been something like this that happened to more than one giant whale. We don't stay in a fixed area of the ocean for a long time, but we continue to cruise the unknown and unexplored areas of the ocean over a long life cycle. It's like a mission engraved on our bodies and spirits, constantly cruising, constantly exploring, and eliminating hidden dangers. Because of this responsibility, every adult whale travels an extremely long distance and a wide range when it reaches its old age. So sometimes, when we are exploring those unknown and extremely distant regions, even we may be contaminated with some dangerous unknown creatures in those seas. They are like ghosts, they don't and don't dare to appear when we're adults. But when we are in old age, when life is gone, especially after the spirit is gone, they will appear after a long period of lurking. ”

"I've only known of this once. An unknown microorganism was brought back from an unknown and distant sea, and the member of the group did not return to the cluster grave in time after his death? His body floated in the middle of the sea. We have sent members to recover its body, having received the signal. It's just that the sea is huge and the road is long. By the time the rest of the pack found it, the microbes in its body had grown through the massive body? and completed its own evolution. The results are obvious? That vast expanse of the ocean has been eroded by this microbe? Become a dead domain. Later, the group gathered nearly thirty members to go with them, and it took years to completely purify the sea. ”

"Since then, plus the same thing has happened before? The hordes have new rules. And to prevent the unknown dangers that may be lurking in our bodies? Every giant whale must crystallize itself as it approaches death. That kind of blue crystal is the result of crystallization and lasts for a long time? Is that the self-ablation of the flesh? The energy accumulated in the body is like a manifestation. Won't the whole process be good? The erosion of the ego and the tearing of the body? It's like the final mental reintake when the spirit is gone. ”

What did the girl seem to have in mind? Looking at the icebergs that could be seen around them: "This huge iceberg will slowly absorb the power of these dead giant whales?" And use this to slowly expand your size, right?"

The whale replied in the affirmative, but did not say anything else. There was a period of silence between the two that gave each of them their own thoughts, and during this time, the whale continued to move slowly forward, following the depth of the cave? The pale blue light emitted from the ice walls beneath the cave became more and more intense.

"What about using some knowledge and information from ancient history? You know you have something like a curse on you, right? Like the weapons that were left behind? Won't be affected by time? It will always exist until you are completely destroyed, and then it will disappear with your disappearance. ”

"I don't think it's a curse? All the individuals in the group believe that this is a solemn and glorious promise made to something or someone before the ancient historical period, whether it is the white whale or the first form of our giant whale at that time. Like an immutable oath, you can think of it as a curse, and it is indeed more terrible than a curse. However, curses bring disaster and suffering, and what is in us does not bring us such things. ”

The whale's words came close to rebuttal, but there was no argument in his voice: "You know a lot of things, and this information probably has to do with the fact that you can completely free the Longinus Spear and the Oath Sword? ”

"You seem to be the same thing as them. The girl replied, a glint in her eyes.

The girl looked at the surrounding ice walls, and the blue glow was generated in the ice. With the help of the visual effect of the bioelectric force field, the myriad energy flow routes that exist within the ice are like the roots that transport water, drawing the energy from the part of the iceberg that intrudes below the surface of the sea and continuously converging it towards the center and top of the iceberg.

Blue light is produced at the intersection of these roots, similar to the chemical reaction that occurs when it is gathered, releasing blue light.

The girl narrowed her eyes, intending to spread her cross pupils, but after thinking of the time the whale had reminded her, she suppressed the thought. However, relying only on perception, she can still perceive what exists in the center and at the top of the iceberg.

When the Mass Graves were first established, they were built on the basis of something that the whales had found.

The giant whale under him had noticed the girl's change at the moment, and without waiting for the girl to ask, it took the initiative to speak: "There is indeed a problem with the cluster graves, and you have also found it." The problem is not only the few things that the giant whale group found back at the beginning, but the continuous expansion of the cluster grave is also a hidden danger that needs to be paid attention to constantly. The length of its existence, combined with the things found by building a cluster of graves, has begun to worry several of the leaders of the group. ”

"The fragments of the trunk of the World Tree, and some of the 、、、mutilated bones of the Moby Dicka from the ancient history," the girl retracted her gaze and continued, "They are just frozen in plain ice, and there will be no problem, but if you use them as containers for energy accumulation, some of the energy used is far from keeping up with the speed of energy accumulation, and disasters will naturally breed." In particular, after the World Tree Fragment 、、、 leaves you, I will go to Mani Colloa once, and the purpose is also related to the World Tree. ”

"Manicola Loa、、、 didn't expect it to be dead. I remember that it had lived long enough that one of the leaders of the Horde had encountered it while exploring the uncharted seas. Is it now in control of the Dragon's Cave and the World Tree?"

"The Dragon's Cave is indeed in its control, but the nascent World Tree has grown to the deep blue realm that breaks through the sky, and Manicolia's control should gradually weaken over time. With the arrival of the Red Star, the World Tree should be out of its grasp. If the World Tree is born from the trunk of a tree, it may not have this power. But it was originally where one of the roots of the World Tree was located, and it didn't know how deep it was to go underground, and there was nothing Mani Coroa could do. The girl said what she knew, "Manikoloa had gone to the Natural Association Alliance to seek cooperation. The Nature Society's holy sword, Durandal, will not be destroyed, and if used correctly, it may be possible to cut off several of the main rhizomes of the World Tree、、、"

"But it's the thing under the whirlpool of the polar sea that they're working with, and it's really not worth it for them to work with Manicola compared to it. The whale interrupted the girl, "The two leaders of the group have done the same thing. They approached the Holy Ten Empire and the Natural Association Alliance, respectively, but they were all rejected. In fact, in their eyes, our giant whale group should be the enemy. Because they know we're going to stop what's going underneath the polar sea whirlpool, but what they're going to do is find a way to release it. I don't think they have the power to control that forbidden creature. ”

"Beluga whale's death has something to do with it, right?" the girl asked.

"Although it is not directly involved, it must have been involved in providing information and planning this siege. The whale replied, "The world restrictions will disappear completely when the Red Star comes, and then 、、、."

"You've recovered most of the beluga whale crystals, you must have found a way, right? I don't think you desperately need these crystals just to stabilize the graves in your mouth. There are indeed hidden dangers of instability here, but these hidden dangers should still be within the scope of your leaders, but the corresponding costs are greater. ”

The whale didn't speak, and the girl shouldn't have let her know the information after she knew about it. Curious, she stopped asking. The surrounding light intensified at this time, and the visible ice became more and more transparent. Soon after, huge white bones appeared in the ice, thick and full of holes, full of traces of the vicissitudes of time.

It was a human rib-like skeleton that spread out over a semicircular ice wall, connecting to a larger, curved spine that stretched forward with no end in sight. In other words, the cave at the foot of the iceberg here seems to be caused by this open skeleton. A spine and open ribs form the main load-bearing support of the cave, allowing the cave to form and extend.

The skeleton was very long, and at the speed of the giant whale's advance, it was nearly half an hour before the girl saw the space in front of her gradually expanding to both sides, forming a huge cavern.

"Abyssal Serpent. The girl spoke. The giant whale below him did not reply, but a sound of stability and weight came from the huge cavern in front of him.

"When I was looking for the scattered bones of the beluga whale, I found a huge skeleton left behind by the Abyssal Serpent, so I brought it back with me as a scaffolding for the graves of the cluster. Now it seems that it did make a big difference. "It was another giant whale that made the sound.

"Eleno, welcome. "The whale is polite.

"Kaois. The girl replied politely, but only nodded. But the giant whale known as Kaois is unconcerned, "The fragments of the World Tree have awakened and are continuing to absorb the energy of the Cluster Graves. Although it does have magical powers, it has not been completely lost until now. But I don't think you can resurrect Moby Dick by relying on its fragments. It may also pose another danger to you. ”

"Elenor, you don't have to worry about this, there is a plan in the group, and we will follow the plan step by step. All we need is the crystals in your hands. In addition, you know very well that after the arrival of the Red Star, with the complete disappearance of the world's restrictions, the forbidden creature of the Polar Sea Vortex will be able to break through the chains and return to this world. The whale pack must, and must have, the strength to confront it、、、"

、、、、、、

Look around, silence replaces silence. Kasia's tense and arched body, strength built up in every muscle, crept quietly through the woods that began to be gloomy.
