Indeed, if in front of this lady's "aunt" ...... It is not an exaggeration to say that she has the power to banish her mother, a true dragon, from the original world. It is conceivable that the younger brother of such a god-level being, that is, the father of Rahlo, will obviously not be a mortal either. However, I don't know what kind of deep hatred and hatred will make this "fairy" aunt still ruthless and banish her from the world where she is in the world when her younger brother and sister are pregnant with her own niece?

Is it a racial conflict between humans and the High Dragons, or some other complex emotional entanglement?

"My aunt fell in love with her brother and considered herself to be the mother of his wife and children. Rahlo didn't know whether he had seen through Egger's doubts, or if he had intended to explain them all, but in short, he didn't have the slightest room for thought: "But my father refused to accept it, and insisted on finding a spouse other than his blood relative. Under these circumstances, when the news of my mother's pregnancy reached her ears, it ignited all my aunt's anger at once, and inevitably triggered everything that followed—why did you make such a strange expression? Do you think that a being as powerful and transcendent as a god would be subject to the strange and chaotic ethics of your mortals?"

She shrugged, as if she didn't want to bother to say more on the topic of family ugliness: "I, who is half a dragon and half god, have shown incredible growth speed at the very beginning of my life, and I have long felt that the boundary that my mother has not been able to cross is waiting for me not far ahead, and it is faintly visible - it is only a matter of time before I touch it, and it is not difficult to cross. However, when I was about to end my life, I began to encounter a strange situation when I was about to end my life: I clearly felt that my potential had been released, but the growth rate of my realm and strength began to stagnate, stuck in a bottleneck that should not exist. I searched for the reason in many ways, and even did not hesitate to disturb my sleeping mother to ask her questions, and finally came to the answer after several searches: the problem was not me, but the external factors that prevented me from stepping into the higher realms - the world I lived in, whether it was the energy level or the laws of nature, could no longer accommodate more powerful individuals. ”

It's not me who is wrong, it's the world? Should I say that this kind of thinking is paranoid, or is it too confident?

Egg wasn't Tyrion, he knew when he could joke, when he had to hold back his mouth—he didn't say anything sarcastic, he just nodded, and looked at the other in silence, knowing that there must be something to come.

"Don't ask me why I have to go to a higher level and not be able to live a quiet life, I won't answer such stupid questions. I don't know how to describe to you, a mortal, the feeling of being bound and breathless, but an example can help you understand my dilemma: the same kind of fish, living and growing in small rivers and lakes, can reach different sizes - and I am kept in a fish tank! The resources and size of the fish tank determine my limits, and the world cannot support my instinctive pursuit and desire to continue to move towards a high realm, in this case, I have no choice but to break the fish tank and jump into the rivers, lakes and seas. ”

Egg's heart moved, and he finally understood: why when he asked if there was a chance and a way to go back, the other party asked him to be a little restless - it turned out that he was not the only one who had similar thoughts!

"That's what you said earlier: the one who was too busy to deal with the cold god?" Egg asked cautiously, unaware that he had subconsciously used honorifics

"Yes, I'm looking for a way to reopen the passage between worlds, to the world where my mother lived before her exile, and where my father lived. A world that can nurture a powerful creature like my parents, whether it's a river, a lake, or the sea, is no worse than a fish tank. ”

Sure enough, Rahlo is also looking for a way to return home, but since this conversation can happen today, it means that she has probably not succeeded.

"Aren't you worried about your aunt's threat, since she can attack and exile your mother out of jealousy, and see you again, I can't guarantee that I won't ...... again. ”

"Don't think you're smart. Rahlo snorted, "Of course I have prepared the means to deal with it - as long as I survive the most dangerous stage of entering and searching for relatives without being discovered, and when my father is found, I don't believe that he, who learns the truth, will let his sister continue to hurt his daughter." But the truth is, the key difficulty is not at all 'what to do when I get back to that world', but 'how to get back?'. ”

yes, how do you get back?

Although the discussion seemed to have digressed with Lahllo's story, Iger finally got to the part that interested him.

"According to my mother, 'moving between worlds' was a separate discipline in her original world, a profound skill that few people could master but could really master. Unfortunately, she doesn't specialize in that, so she doesn't know anything about it...... This meant that I couldn't get guidance or support from her, and I had to do it all on my own. Soon after her death, I began this massive project: to try to independently study and master the spells of the space system without anyone else being able to help. ”

"I've spent decades figuring out what space is all about, and I've spent decades figuring out how to apply energy to it...... But when I finally made a difference in this field through self-study, I came to the conclusion that the power of the spells required to tear through the space was far beyond the limits of my strength in this world - to break the fishbowl, I needed more power, but if I wanted to increase my strength, I had to leave the fishbowl that suppressed my potential...... I was trapped in an inextricable loop, the invisible and intangible, formless but unbreakable wall of space trapped me like a cage, making me unable to move at all. ”

Egger took a breath, both helpless at the bad result, and smacking his tongue at the other party's efforts to try to leave this world: that is, a demigod and half dragon, she was almost immortal from birth, so she could have endless time and energy to die for such a thing...... It's almost a hopeless job.

I don't know if it is this boring and boring research process that has gradually made her have the weird temper she has now: she has a strong desire to talk despite chattering, but she has to put on the coat of "reward", and from time to time she has to force people to ask herself questions to keep the conversation going?

"You finally gave up?" Egger, who gradually touched the other party's personality, began to be bold enough to join in the interaction.

"No, the bad calculations did keep me depressed for a long time...... The good thing is that the last thing I'm bad at is time. After putting aside this thought for a moment and turning his attention to other areas, and after a certain period of study and exploration in other fields to a certain height, it was a miraculous fulfillment of the proverb coined by my children: 'Every road leads to Valyria'. ”

In a tone that did not fluctuate in the slightest, Laherlo recounted his own experience of encountering a wall and rising again enough for a mortal to die back and forth a dozen times.

"First, I found out exactly where my mother had been when she was banished into the world...... It was somewhere in the air between the land of the long summer and the remnants of the Valyrian peninsula, in the sea of smoke. The space there had been violently damaged by my mother's banishment, and although it had been repaired by the space's self-healing ability, it was still much less stable than anywhere else, and it was the easiest point to break through - it was calculated that although the magic power needed to tear the space there was still above what I could achieve, at least it was no longer two orders of magnitude worse than it used to be, but only a few times worse, so that I could at least see the dawn of solving the problem. ”

"Later, some of my explorations and attempts to pass the time in the field of non-space magic made me gradually realize a weakness of my own character: because of the strength of my bloodline, I was able to solve all difficulties with my own strength since I was a child, scare off any enemy, and fight for everything I wanted...... But because of this, I believe in and rely too much on my own individual strength, but I ignore the convenience and assistance that tools and helpers can bring. I always subconsciously fall into the misconception that if I can't do something, then it's impossible. ”

She waved her hand and flicked the planet in front of her, adjusting it from Westeros to another angle, so that the Valyrian Peninsula of Essos was in the center of her field of vision—unlike any map Egg had ever seen, the Valyrian Peninsula was intact.

"After recognizing this misconception and working to overcome it, it became clear that I couldn't tear apart space by casting magic alone, but with the help of pre-arrangement, spell enhancement devices, and buildings, any spellcaster could rely on external forces to cast specific amplified spells on specific targets in specific locations, so that the strength of the spells far exceeded the limits of what an individual could achieve! Such a complex method is of no practical use in ordinary life and combat, as casting magic in a fixed facility requires lengthy preparation steps and is unable to cope with accidents. However, when the target is a spatial rift that 'neither hides nor escapes', it comes into play. ”

"After decades of in-depth study of auxiliary magic, I finally designed an oversized circle to absorb the free energy that converged between heaven and earth to enhance the space spell I was about to cast. If it can be successfully completed and put into operation, the energy intensity it can generate will be enough to tear apart any spatial rift that has been opened...... Well, the corresponding price is that it will take an astronomical amount of manpower and countless magical material resources to complete this arrangement, and it is by no means possible for an individual, no matter how strong. This should have been a big problem that stood in my way, but here's what's interesting: in the hundreds of years I've been tossing and going back and forth trying to figure out, my children, my children's children, my children's children's children...... Relying on the advantages of reproduction and half-dragon and half-god bloodlines, without me even noticing, they quietly established a huge kingdom that they called the 'Valyrian Fortress of Freedom', and without my intervention at all, they conquered almost all the top primitive civilizations in the known world, creating a huge, complete and efficient ruling machine, which can be the perfect helper and assistance for my huge idea. ”

"At the behest of my ancestor, my descendants have captured countless laborers from all over the world, plundered and collected mountains of magical items and spell-casting materials...... In the end, I used the Fourteen Fire Peaks as the formation and the vast plains of the hinterland of Valyria as the base to build a huge spatial tearing circle that I couldn't see from one end to the other. With a flick of his finger, a string of tall mountains lit up in a huge circle around the mountains on the Valyrian Peninsula beneath their feet: "At the perfect time when the tide of magic was at its peak, I activated this huge circle that had been tossed for thousands of years and had been built for decades, draining nearly half of the world's magic power, unleashing a spatial magic far beyond the limits of my ability, and ruthlessly tearing open the spatial rift caused by my mother's entry into this world. ”

Looking at the complete Valyrian Peninsula drawn by Laherlo, and thinking back to the other version of the world map of ice and fire that he had seen before and after the crossing, Iger suddenly felt a chill in his back: he remembered the difference between the two maps - the center of the super crossing circle that the woman in front of him claimed to have built, the Fourteen Fire Peaks and the surrounding area, should now be an ocean called the Sea of Smoke and dense islands!

A shocking conclusion instantly squeezed into Igger's mind: the cause of the "apocalypse" that led to the collapse of the fortress of freedom may not be a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster!

Holding back the throbbing in his heart, he cautiously asked to confirm his guess: "Is it ...... Then something happened to the circle, inducing an unprecedentedly violent eruption of the Fourteen Fire Peaks...... caused the Valyrian Peninsula to partially sink to the bottom of the sea, and the Fortress of Liberty has since fallen?"
