Chapter 2: Extreme Cold Guardian
The small brawl in Purple Frost City and the conversation between two UN police officers did not seem to affect an area in the center of Purple Frost City.
There, a complex of buildings that are not gorgeous, but also solemn, and have a kind of chic and elegant atmosphere, is sitting heavily.
Although the owner of the place claimed that it was just a mansion of his family, everyone knew that it was the United Nations King of Mankind, and the King of all of them...... Palace.
At this time, the palace was quiet in the afternoon sun, and the sound of several children playing could be heard from time to time.
But the strange thing is that except for a few Xie retainers guarding the gates of the palace, there is no one in the palace of Nuoda, as if people have gone somewhere and are not here.
β¦β¦
Deep in the palace is a basement.
At this time, it was dark and crowded with people.
The eldest princess Xie Ning'er is here, the Queen Mother Zhao is here, the royal family Gu Lao is here, the deputy head of the royal family Pan Caiyun is also here, and most of the Xie family retainers are also here. They stood silently, silently looking at the figure of a young man in front of them.
The young man also stood quietly, his eyes also looking ahead of him, and he was silent for a long time.
He stood silently, his eyes full of sorrow and regret, but also with a slight ...... Ray of hope.
β¦β¦
A rectangular block of ice was in front of him, quietly placed in the middle of the dark room, the temperature had always been about twenty-seven degrees, but this ice cube seemed to never melt, and it exuded a cold air and strange frost mist that never seemed to dissipate.
Under the soft magic light, in the hazy frost mist, in the middle of the ice cube, a soft and peerless girl was lying quietly in this strange ice coffin.
Her hands clasped together, her smile was full of serenity, her eyes were closed, and she seemed to fall asleep quietly. As if never waking up.
But the young man was already in tears.
β¦β¦
"Ning'er ......"
An old call behind him finally brought back the young man's sorrow, and when he turned his head to look, Zhao was silently looking at him.
"Mother, what's the matter?"
The young man wiped away his tears, and he replied in a low voice.
"Su'er...... Can it really be awakened? As long as her primordial life magic energy is replenished, she will awaken from this Extreme Cold Guardian? β
Zhao asked in a low voice, with a hint of tremor in her voice, but also full of hope and desire.
β¦β¦
"Yes, Mother."
The young man replied in a low voice again.
"I asked Deputy Chief Lin Hurricane of the Military Department, and I also asked Ao. They all said. Su Su didn't die, she was just in that battle, the life site on her soul spiral was about to be unbearable, and she had no choice but to extract it and couldn't be replenished, and the last moment when the life site sequence was about to collapse seemed to trigger the last protection mechanism in her Frost Divine Soul Spiral - Extreme Cold Guard. β
"Human life is composed of both the soul spiral and the body, and if the soul spiral's life loci sequence collapses or is exhausted, the person will die without a disease. The aging and death of the body will also cause the soul spiral to lose the soul sea and eventually dissipate, which is the life mechanism of human life. β
β¦β¦
"This ice coffin is just one effect of the Extreme Cold Guardian - just as her life locus sequence is about to collapse. Freeze her and let her soul spiral stop automatically. In this way, her soul spiral would no longer consume life magic energy by turningβher life locus sequence was close to the point where even one more rotation of her soul spiral would completely collapse. β
"At the same time. The Extremely Cold Ice Coffin also kept her flesh alive forever. So that after she is replenished by the primordial life demonic energy, the soul spiral can operate normally, and the physical body can also operate normally. β
"So, Susu didn't die. She'll wake up. β
The young man explained in detail, and his expression was full of determination.
β¦β¦
"But...... How on earth was she supposed to replenish the primordial life magic? Have Vice Chief Lin tried it with His Royal Highness Zeng and even Ao? It's completely useless for them to input life magic energy......"
Zhao's eyes were already full of tears.
"Yes, it is impossible for primordial life magic energy to be replenished by acquired life magic energy. But there is one thing that is likely to stimulate Su Su's soul spiral, automatically absorbing and replenishing the original life sequence that was missing by Su Su several times by secret methods. β
The young man nodded again, and he said in a low voice.
β¦β¦
"What's that? Is that the holy water of life that you always said you were going to find? β
Zhao suddenly asked urgently.
"Yes, the Holy Water of Life - the only one that exists in the world, the most essence and absolute essence of the acquired life magic energy. Oya has confirmed that there is at least an eighty percent chance that it will achieve the effect we expect and wake up Susu. β
The young man whispered.
"But it's said that there was only one bottle...... The elves are not related to us...... According to the analysis of the Extreme Cold Research Institute, the period is only two years, and now it has been almost a year......"
Zhao couldn't stop wiping away tears.
β¦β¦
"Mother, don't worry, now the affairs of the country are basically on the right track, with me or not, I can rest assured that I can go. The barbarians are also licking their wounds, and it is impossible for them to have the strength to attack us anytime soon - they have killed two more emperors in the raid, and now they are powerless to threaten us unless their barbarian god awakens. β
"After I have dealt with the last necessary thing that should be ripe and can be handled recently, I have no worries. In a few days, I will set off with Brother Zeng to go to the Western Continent of the Elves, and he also needs a little Holy Water of Life - even if he steals and robs it, I will give Su Su the Holy Water of Life back. β
The young man's eyes were full of determination, and he whispered comfort.
β¦β¦
Then he turned to the crowd.
"Guard the secret room of your master and mother, no one is allowed to enter or leave without the permission of me or the eldest lady!"
He commanded sharply.
"Yes!"
The Xie family retainers responded in unison.
Immediately, the young man turned to Xie Ning'er: "Ning'er, don't worry about your sister-in-law, it'll be fine." Brother will definitely get the holy water of life back for your sister-in-law, since you like the study of magic patterns, and you have made gratifying progress in the past two years, continue to concentrate on the study of magic patterns in the General Institute of Magic Energy Research, in the hope that one day you can add another bargaining chip to our revenge. β
β¦β¦
"I understand. Brother, you have to be careful after you go to the Western Continent. β
The girl nodded solemnly, and she replied softly.
"Yes, I will. After I left, take care of this family, take care of myself, take care of my sister-in-law, take care of my mother, and take care of several children. β
"The daily magic training of several children cannot be stopped, and they cannot be soft-hearted. Xiao Hot Pot and Qi'er need to strengthen the control and exercise of space magic energy - children are ignorant, playful, and don't know the meaning of growth and what they will face in the future. If parents and elders don't supervise, they will be lazy. β
"At the same time, the whole government must also be strictly ordered not to reveal any news about Su Su in front of Qi'er and Shuang'er. Tell them that their mother has to stay in the Empire because of some things, and she won't be able to come back in a year - until I come back. β
The young man combed the young girl's messy hair on her cheeks, and once again whispered.
β¦β¦
"Are you going to leave now, then? How long will it take to come back? β
The girl nodded again. He looked at the young man with reluctance.
"Don't worry, I said, in a year at most. As for now...... I still have to go to the Imperial Cabinet Building to deal with some things first, and my father-in-law is angry and angry and fights evil words to urge me. I don't know how many times I've scolded me for being a vegetarian meal, and I also feel that the conditions are ripe. Then, I will turn around and go to the city of the sun, and set off with Brother Zeng. β
The young man smiled. He looked at his young sister and said softly.
"Well...... Brother, then you must be careful, and you must come back safely. Be sure to bring back the Holy Water of Life, too. β
The girl looked at the young man and said reluctantly, her face full of attachment and worry.
β¦β¦
"Don't worry, I'm already a Sky Demon War now, my real strength, I'm afraid I can fight with Xingyao, plus Brother Zeng, who is already a high-level sky, and is also a pseudo-sky, is basically worry-free."
"As for the holy water of life, even if the elves can't eat the ancients, then I'll steal it and rob it, right?"
"I've just discovered now that the space magic energy is especially useful whether it is a thief or a robber, and it can be used regardless of distance, teleportation, ignoring obstacles, and penetrating walls everywhere, even if it is discovered, you can quickly escape, and no one can catch it yet - this is the world's first magic energy, it is clearly the first magic energy of thieves."
The young man looked at everyone with a look full of worry and expectation, and he didn't seem to want to make everyone so uneasy at the time of separation, and add new worries to everyone's worries. He thought about it, but said with a smile as if he was changing the subject.
β¦β¦
The girl burst out laughing, and she glanced at the young man with disgust.
"Then go and go back quickly, so that we don't have to worry about you all the time...... And worry about my sister-in-law. It's been less than a year since I've been reunited, and my sister-in-law is even more ...... But my brother has never let us down, and we will definitely be reunited again, definitely! Right? β
She said softly, and a trace of leisurely yearning suddenly appeared in her incomparably delicate little face.
The young man also smiled lightly, he hugged the Zhao family who was looking at him with hope and reluctance on the side, and then hugged the girl in his arms.
"Of course, I believe my brother, my brother will never let you down - if the winds and waves in the Far North Forest have come, and the world's crisis of mankind has been saved, I am afraid that I will not be able to get a small bottle of holy water of life?"
He caressed the girl's long hair affectionately, and he leaned over the long black hair and whispered.
β¦β¦
"I'm leaving."
Then he let go of the girl, and lay there silently with great nostalgia, as if listening to their conversation, and the girl in the ice coffin, who was always smiling gracefully, was the first to walk out of the door.
"It's insulting to me again...... I'm twenty years old, and I've grown up......"
In the eyes of the young man, Xie Ning'er, who seemed to always be the little girl, also followed her brother's footsteps and walked out of the door, she muttered in a low voice with a blushing face, and suddenly the people in the room who were still sad also smiled.
Then, as the Zhao family's face was full of hope and love, and as the Xie family's retainers saluted the ice coffin, the heavy code door finally closed again, separating the girl in the ice coffin in a dark and quiet dark room.
The girl was still smiling, and in the cold air and rising frost mist, she lay quietly in the crystal ice coffin, her eyes closed, her hands interlocked, as if for eternity. (To be continued......)
