A vine hangs to the ground, and the other section of the vine is a wooden ladder. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info has been extending around the World Tree, and there is no end in sight.

Ian and Messiah looked at each other, looking a little surprised. The two walked over to the vine, and Ian looked up and noticed traces of dirt on the wooden ladder.

"Someone has used this ladder, not so long ago. Ian said, "Probably the guide." ”

Messiah nodded, but looked a little puzzled: "In this way, it should be my brother who opened the mechanism, but why didn't they go up, but let an irrelevant person go up?"

Ian shook his head: "We may never know about this kind of thing, how about it, go up?"

Soon Ian knew that he had asked nonsense, and since they were all here, there was no reason why he couldn't go up. Messiah nodded, but looked at the vines and said with some difficulty, "How can this thing climb?"

"It's easy, leave it to me. Ian patted his chest, and then, like a monkey, he blinked up, and saw the Messiah's eyes behind him.

"I didn't expect you to be so good. The Messiah exclaimed.

Ian shrugged, "Don't forget what I used to do. ”

Just kidding, as a thief, if he hadn't been good, someone as cheap as him would have been killed a long time ago. The vine didn't grow, and Ian bent down and pulled the Messiah up.

After the two got on the ladder, the ladder made a "creaking" sound, which startled them and they didn't dare to move. Fortunately, the ladder still withstood their weight.

Ian looked at the Messiah and said, "Maybe that's why your brother can't get up." The ladder was too fragile, their armor too heavy. ”

The Messiah bit her lip and nodded, but she still felt that it was not that simple. But that's certainly one of the reasons.

The two of them began to climb up the stone wall, and Ian held the Messiah in his other hand. Because the ladder is so unsafe, it keeps making a "crunching" sound, as if it will break at any moment. They trembled as they walked, and the Messiah held Ian's hand tightly.

After walking for a while, I walked out of the root part. Without the staggered roots, the horizon suddenly widened a lot, and it was quite a sudden opening up. It's just that there are bad parts, because it will take some time to get to the branch part, and now there is only one main trunk in front of me.

It's a lot more empty, but it's also a lot more dangerous. The wooden ladder was apparently only made for one person to walk on, and it was too narrow. In the past, when they were unsteady walking, they could hold on to the roots that were inserted into the stone wall, but now they have nothing to hold on to except the stone wall and each other's hands.

Ian reminded the Messiah to be careful. For he noticed that the Messiah's pretty face was pale, and he was obviously terrified.

"Girl, you're not afraid of heights, are you? Ian quipped, "It's a bit difficult to get through if you're afraid of heights, and there's still a long way to go." ”

Messiah wanted to close his eyes and ignore Ian, but she didn't dare, so she could only follow Ian carefully step by step and not speak.

It's just that Ian began to babble again, obviously unable to hold his mouth idle: "Who built this ladder you say, it's obviously for people to walk, could it be that someone climbed the World Tree a long time ago?"

The Messiah didn't want to speak, but the question did bother her. In addition to the records of the Four Tribes, one of the most illustrious humans and the most powerful members of the other three races climbed the World Tree to challenge the Iliad. Since then, there has been no record of the World Tree, so could it be that this ladder was built at that time?

Ian continued: "And this tree is not normal, how can there be an ancient tree that grows in the interior of the mountain, you look at the roots underneath, and then look at the branches above the head, they are all inserted into the mountain. It's incredible. ”

The Messiah thought for a moment and replied, "I should be able to tell you that, if I am not mistaken, it must be the work of the Iliad." If there is anyone in this world who can move the World Tree, except for the Iliad, perhaps only the heavens. ”

"Then I'd rather believe that there is a God. Ian pouted, "Let's talk about what God looks like." Is it more like a human, or more like a dragon, or more like a dwarf or a elf?"

The Messiah was stunned, she really hadn't thought about this kind of problem. They had always symbolized the Iliad as a god, and had never visualized the Iliad like Ian, and she had to admit that the idea was novel.

The two discussed for a long time, until they reached the part of the branch. Watching those thick branches insert into the stone wall, the Messiah couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She glanced back, and her face turned pale with fright. It was so empty underneath that she realized how narrow the ladder they had been walking on before. The ladder circled around the stone wall, and it looked so long that she couldn't believe how she had just walked there.

"Okay, I feel better here. Ian looked back at her and smiled, "Let's find a thicker branch to rest on." ”

The Messiah nodded, and as he continued walking, he suddenly thought of something and stopped abruptly.

Ian looked back in confusion: "What's wrong?"

The Messiah bit her lip and didn't speak, and she realized that Ian had chattered with her earlier just to distract her. If she keeps her heart up, there is a good chance that something will happen.

But.

The Messiah could clearly see that Ian's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat. She only now thought that Ian, who was walking in front, was the most laborious, and he had to make sure step by step whether the road under his feet was safe, otherwise it would be easy to fall and fall to pieces. But at the same time, he has to keep talking to himself and divert his attention.

The Messiah looked down, she couldn't figure out why Ian was doing this. Moreover, if he hadn't seen it himself, he probably wouldn't have told himself.

But why? He likes to talk nonsense so much, he likes to play tricks so much, but he doesn't say a word at this time. The Messiah had never seen such a person before.

The Messiah looked up again and looked at Ian's puzzled gaze. Suddenly I felt like I saw my brother, they obviously didn't look like each other at all. The Messiah moved his mouth: "You close your eyes. ”

Ian was stunned: "What are you doing?"

"I have something to do, hurry up and close it. The Messiah said very seriously.

Ian thought to himself that the girl was starting to go crazy again, and he turned his head and pointed to the branch not far away, "Hold on a little longer, and rest there." Are you still a little scared? If you're afraid, you'll ...... Hmm"

Before Ian could finish speaking, the Messiah was already on tiptoe and gagged his mouth with his mouth. Ian was stunned, he was kissed like this, so he subconsciously widened his eyes, who knew that the Messiah, Nizi, also stared at the big eyes.

Those pale blue eyes are not as beautiful as words.
